Peace run goes through Stittsville John Curry

john.curry@metroland.com

An international peace run passed through Stittsville last Friday afternoon.

A lighted torch, with its flame burning, was carried along the Trans Canada Trail by Arpan DeAngelo of New York City, one of six relay runners involved in this year’s Sri Chinmoy Oneness-Home Peace Run that started in Toronto on May 11 and will finish in New York City on May 26. The route is running from Toronto to Kingston (May 14) to Ottawa (May 17-18) to Montreal (May 20) to Burlington, Vermont (May 21) to Woodstock, NY (May 24) to New York City.

Arpan DeAngelo, carrying the torch, crossed Stittsville Main Street headed east on the Trans Canada Trail about 2:45 p.m. last Friday and passed the site of the new French Catholic High School on Abbott Street at the new Robert Grant Avenue (formerly Founder Ave.) at 3:10 p.m. as he continued to head east on the Trans Canada Trail.

He was carrying the torch on a three mile stretch of the Peace Run before handing over the torch to the next runner in the relay. Each runner does about six to eight miles a day. The runners had stayed overnight in Westport before leaving for Ottawa last Friday.

Arpan explained that this Sri Chinmoy Oneness-Home Peace Run is not a fundraising run but is meant to spread the message that peace can be achieved through actions by individuals at the local level.

Arpan himself, who lives in New York City, is a former marathon runner who switched to being involved in the Sri Chinmoy Oneness-Home Peace Run, leaving behind racing to be part of a good cause of trying to inspire people to work for peace on a local level, one person at a time.

This year’s Peace Run is what Arpan described as a short one, lasting only three weeks as the torch is carried from Toronto to New York City. Last year, the Peace Run in North America lasted four months, starting on April 10 and finishing Aug. 15. It included 59 days in the United States, 30 days in Canada and two days in Mexico. Such a lengthy run is undertaken every second year.

This Sri Chinmoy Oneness-Home Peace Run, founded in 1987, is a global torch relay that promotes international friendship and understanding. At one time known as the World Harmony Run, this Peace Run does not seek to raise money or highlight any particular cause. Rather, it simply strives to create goodwill among peoples of all nations in the belief that working together, individuals can make a difference.

This Peace Run was founded in 1987 by Sri Chinmoy who died in 2007 but who had dedicated his life to advancing the ideals of world peace and oneness. Sri Chinmoy was born in what is now Bangladesh in 1931, spending John Curry/Metroland 20 years in spiritual practice there before moving to New Arpan DeAngelo from New York City holds the flaming torch of the Sri York City in 1964 where he taught meditation, eventually Chinmoy Oneness-Home Peace Run as he carries the torch through teaching thousands of students in 60 countries.

He noted that Village Square Park, the site of the event which is located at the corner of Stittsville Main Street and Abbott Street in Stittsville, should be full of exhibitors again this year, just like last year when there were about 75 exhibitors there.

He said that about 16 authors had already signed up, meaning that there will be more authors on site this year than last year.

This year’s event should also have a couple more food vendors than last year.

Besides the exhibitors, Art and Authors in the park will have face painting and other activities for youngsters as well as musical entertainment.

The hope is for good weather again this year as there is no rain date for the Sunday event.

This year’s Art and Authors in the Park event will run from 12 noon to 5 p.m. at Village Square Park.

Special to the News

Stittsville has a new Toastmasters Club.

And just what is it like to attend that first meeting and become a member of this club.

Here is how it could go!

At Toastmasters, you learn to speak and to listen. Seeing a sign at the Stittsville library regarding the formation of a new Toastmasters Club in Stittsville makes you think about joining. Perhaps you call Gerry Tapp, the area governor for Toastmasters International, and get encouragement from him that the fear that you are feeling about impromptu speaking is common to everyone and that this fear will turn to fun.

You go to your first meeting, finding a room full of others. When the meeting starts, you love the speeches but you were glad that you were not giving them.

Then the “Table Topics” part of the meeting began. No everyone had to speak since this was the first meeting but you do,

albeit with racing heart, shaking voice and trembling legs.

Gina Cook, one of the established Toastmasters and a mentor for this new Stittsville Club, gives you encouragement and guess what – not only do you decide to join the club but you also sign up for your first ice-breaker speech.

Despite lamenting your impulsive decision, you present your first icebreaker speech the next week. It’s a success and now you love this speechmaking. It’s something to look forward to every week.

Of course, it’s not always a great experience and you get discouraged at times about your inability to think on your feet. But this discouragement does not last as you know that everyone in the room has experienced the same thing and so they all support and encourage you. You are now on your journey to become a better public speaker and leader. It just does not happen overnight.

The Toastmasters group is a safe en-

vironment where this can happen, where failure is acceptable and growth is made possible.

At the Stittsville Toastmasters Club, you not only get a chance to become a better public speaker but also to become a competent leader. That’s because you take up various roles during the meeting like Timekeeper, Table Topics master, Grammarian, Quizmaster, etc. There are also various administrative roles that need filling like Club treasurer, vice president of member, etc.

The meetings become a highlight of the week because they are full of positive energy, respect and support. You get to learn, laugh and break away from your normal routine. You have a lot of fun.

Anyone who would like to find out more about this new Stittsville Toastmasters Club and perhaps join should checked out the website at http://stittsvilletoastmasters. ca or should email contact@stittsvilletoastmasters.ca .

A prolific author, artist, poet and musician, he also advocated athleticism to achieve spiritual enlightenment. This included distance running, swimming and weightlifting.

Sri Chinmoy travelled widely, meeting with world figures, often being described as an ambassador of peace.

Over the years, he had ongoing friendships with figures such as Mikhail Gorbachev, Nelson Mandela, Mother Teresa and Desmond Tutu.

It was in 1987 that Sri Chinmoy founded the Sri Chinmoy Oneness-Home Peace Run, a torch relay that travels throughout the world promoting the simple message that there is infinitely more that unites people as human beings than divides people. He advocated for the idea that it is individuals who can make positive change a reality.

Relay teams in each participating country are made up of runners from all walks of life. The Run frequently partners with schools, community groups and municipalities to bring the run to the community as a way of encouraging international friendship and understanding.

Each year the Peace Run makes its way through the main continents of North America, Europe, Asia, Africa and Australia.

Sri Chinmoy himself devoted his life to the pursuit of harmony and oneness between peoples and between different cultures. He pursued this vision through the arts, athletics and humanitarian service. He was a strong advocate for the role of sports as a powerful instrument for promoting global harmony.

Batter up, Ottawa

B

uy me some peanuts and Cracker Jacks, I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t care if I ever come back.

Ottawaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s newest sports franchise makes its debut tomorrow, May 22.

We wish the Ottawa Champions good weather, plenty of hits and a championship to go with their name, even if itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not in year one.

The city has seen sports teams come and go, no more so than on the diamond at what was JetForm Park, then Ottawa Stadium and now the tonguetwisting Raymond Chabot Grant Thornton Park.

Ottawa sports fans have been called fickle for their wavering support of sports franchises, but we all love a winner, and weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll prop up less successful teams if the product is entertaining.

As the Champions take to the field this weekend, the fans will be there. Can-Am league baseball isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t the major leagues but â&#x20AC;&#x201C; based on the defunct Rapids â&#x20AC;&#x201C; there is no questioning the complete effort the players deliver. The stadium, the ticket and concession prices and the overall experience promise good value

for money, especially for families.

Add in the recent addition of a pedestrian link from the Transitway to the ballpark, and the trip becomes even more family friendly.

Fans will see teams from Canadian and American cities visit to play our Champions, and that in turn creates revenue for service providers in the city. Any time tourism numbers can be boosted, the public should show its support.

It takes a lot of guts to invest in a sports team, especially when past franchises have moved away. The Ottawa Champions Baseball Club ownership took that into account and decided the city would back the team. Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve given us a vote of confidence and showed more bravado when the name was chosen.

Win or lose, theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re part of our city now.

Let me root, root, root, For the home team, If they donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t win itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a shame For itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s one, two, three strikes youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re out At the old ball game

Swimming upstream in face of parking problems

I

n Ottawa we love to talk about parking. We love to talk about parking more than we love to park. Actually, we love to do anything more than we love parking.

The parking conversation is a moveable feast, jumping from neighbourhood to neighbourhood.

Recently, there have been discussions about Lansdowne, where there seems to be uncertainty about where parking actually is. Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d think a few good signs would clear that up, but life is never as simple as that.

The most recent emergence of the parking conversation is in the Westboro and Wellington West areas, where on-street parking has traditionally been free, with signs limiting the length of time a car can stay in one spot. That either hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t worked, or

CHARLES GORDON Funny Town has worked too well, depending on whom you consult. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s actually the same thing either way: free parking lures cars to the neighbourhood and creates a shortage of free parking.

Can the situation be improved?

Kitchissippi Coun. Jeff Leiper organized a recent meeting at which the problems were aired. Inevitably, the possibility of paid parking in Westboro was discussed. Now, there are experts on both sides of this issue. Plus, everyone who drives a car

is an expert. So there is no shortage of opinions.

There is just a shortage of clearcut answers. Paid parking, it is said by some, facilitates more rapid turnover of available spaces, thus making more parking available. But wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t strict enforcement of time limits on free parking accomplish the same thing?

Perhaps, but that wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be popular with merchants. The prospect of parking control officers lurking might scare away potential customers. On the other hand, making them feed the parking meter will also be a deterrent, according to merchants.

The opinion was even expressed that only wealthier people would shop in Westboro, which would threaten the existence of small businesses.

If that seems extreme, remember that not too far away are large shopping centres with lots of stores and free parking. Owning a small business is not for the faint of heart.

More parking garages? It is to laugh. You should never underestimate the legendary cheapness of the average Ottawan. He will drive many blocks out of his way to save two dollars. Inevitably, that takes him onto a residential street, where he parks in front of your house. Now, that doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t seem like a huge burden, but it can be a nuisance when dozens of cars are circling your block while the kids are playing street hockey.

Paid parking might add to this problem. On the other hand, it exists already. I know of a family, situated less than half a block from a happening stretch of Wellington Street. They can walk to everything, but theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve just decided to move out, because of other peopleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s cars.

‘Sugar Bear’ is gone - Thanks for the memories!

John Curry john.curry@metroland.com

“Sugar Bear” is gone.

The Pomeranian dog who has been a fixture around the Stittsville Glass & Signs shop on Stittsville Main Street beside Village Square Park in Stittsville for the past 11 years had to be put down on Thursday, May 7 due to full kidney failure.

She died in the arms of Nancy Therrien who 11 years ago had brought Sugar Bear to Stittsville, a small puppy who fit in the palm of her hand. She had not told her husband Luc Therrien that she was purchasing a dog but Luc quickly fell in love with Sugar Bear just as soon as he saw her.

Sugar Bear had the run of the Stittsville Glass & Signs shop, with one foot high barriers erected between the shop and the front display area as well as at the shop’s doors to keep Sugar Bear contained, although she could hopped over the barriers at any time, especially in her younger days, something that she never did.

Indeed, there were even those who dropped into the shop, not to do business but simply to see Sugar Bear.

Sugar Bear was famous for the tiny Ottawa Senators logo which adorned her forehead. The Stittsville Glass & Signs shop, of course, is well known for its support of the Ottawa Senators.

At playoff time each year, the firm’s sign outside the shop along Stittsville Main Street takes on a Sens flavour as the Sens are urged on in their quest for the Stanley Cup. And the Therrien’s vehicle is known to become a travelling advertisement for the Sens when playoff fever has really taken hold in some of the past seasons.

Nancy named the dog Sugar Bear because she thought that the small puppy that she brought home that day looked like a polar bear and also was a sweet as sugar – hence the name “Sugar Bear.”

“She was totally spoiled, my fault,” says Nancy, saying that it all started when Sugar Bear arrived in such a tiny state and Nancy had to meet her every need.

Sugar Bear was the first dog that

Nancy ever owned. She could not have dogs in her youth because her mother was allergic to dogs. She did have gerbils instead.

Nancy praises the care that Sugar Bear received at the Stittsville Small Animal Clinic when she had to be put down. She received a card of condolence afterwards, a card that now has a special place in her life because the Stittsville Small Animal Clinic found a card which featured on its front a photograph of a dog that looked very much like Sugar Bear. But the Stittsville Small Animal Clinic went even farther and placed a small Sens logo on the dog’s forehead, replicating Sugar Bear’s appearance.

Nancy says that Sugar Bear thought that she owned the adjacent Village Square Park, that it was more or less her backyard and she would bark loudly if there were late night loiterers or party goers in the park.

“That was her park,” Luc Therrien says, noting that Sugar Bear protected it.

Sugar Bear even was responsible for Nancy winning $1,000 when there was a morning television show broadcast from Village Square Park several years ago. The winner had to find the prize token hidden somewhere in the park. Well, didn’t Sugar Bear, in scratching at one of her favourite spots in the park, discover the token and Nancy won the prize money.

Sugar Bear was also protective of the Stittsville Glass & Signs shop.

During the daytime when the shop was open, Sugar Bear was quiet and friendly. But when the shop was locked up at night, Sugar Bear turned into a guard dog, ready to bark at disturbances in the park next door or around the outside of the shop.

gust should provide further information.

She says that getting another dog to replace Sugar Bear is now her incentive to keep fighting and hopefully beat her cancer. If things begin to appear optimistic, then she will go out someday and get another dog, just like the last time, not telling Luc until she shows up back at the shop with the new dog. It will be either another Pomeranian or a Chihuahua but whatever, she is sure that Luc will immediately love the dog, just as was the case with Sugar Bear’s arrival.

Sugar Bear is being cremated and her urn will be kept on display in the shop, along with a collage of photographs of her beside it.

Nancy and Luc would take Sugar Bear for walks but it was Sugar Bear who determined how long the walks were. Sugar Bear would simply sit down and not move until Nancy and Luc turned around or picked her up.

When we took her for a walk, she walked us, Nancy says.

The death of Sugar Bear was just one of two bad news experiences which have befallen Nancy and Luc in recent days. “When it rains, it pours,” says Nancy as she explains that her most recent scan has shown that her cancerous tumours in her lungs have grown bigger recently.

They had been held in check by massive radiation treatments but now are getting bigger. A scan planned in Au-

Jazz fills Gaia Java shop thanks to musical duo John Curry

john.curry@metroland.com

The Gaia Java coffee shop became the Gaia Jazz coffee shop at its music evening last Friday.

That’s because the shop was filled not just with the jazz offerings of singer Betty Ann Bryanton but also with the accompanying guitar stylings of Nathan Corr.

In every song performed by Betty Ann, there was a section where Nathan and his guitar took over, delivering a guitar virtuoso solo that brought forth more and more audience applause each time as the evening progressed. It made for a magic night!

Ottawa Valley Tours

The magic of the evening was also helped by the fact that the pair presented a program laden with jazz standards and classics, all beginning with the most appropriate (given the coffee shop setting) “Black Coffee,” a song closely associated with American jazz singer Ella Fitzgerald a.k.a. the Queen of Jazz.

But those at the music evening also heard such legendary jazz tunes as “All of Me,” the 1931 song first performed by Belle Baker over the radio and a song which is one of the most recorded songs ever, done by the likes of Bing Crosby, Billie Holiday, Louise Armstrong, Ella Fitzgerald and Frank Sinatra.

Another jazz standard that was first recorded in 1934 and has been recorded by singers over the years right up to Diana Krall today and which was heard at this Gaia Java performance was “East of the Sun and West of the Moon.”

“Willow Weep For Me” is another jazz favourite heard, a song perhaps most associated with Billie Holiday from her 1950’s album “Lady Sings The Blues.”

And then there was a rendition delivered of “Perfidia,” a song that was a hit for the smooth singing Nat King Cole.

Other songs performed at this Bryanton/Corr jazzfest last Friday included “Falling Leaves,” with its melodic, wistful lyrics such as “But I miss you most of all, my darling, when autumn leaves fall.” This is a time-

song of the state of Georgia in 1979; and the ever-haunting Brazilian bossa nova song “The Girl From Ipanema,” a tune which won the Grammy Award for Record of the Year in 1965.

Betty Ann Bryanton has been singing since she was a young girl in Prince Edward Island and has sung with the National Youth Choir, the Ottawa Choral Society, the Orpheus Musical Theatre Society and the Savoy Society as well as performing in musical festival competitions and singing at events and with local bands. Classical music has been a passion of hers but since 2006 she has been concentrating on jazz. She works full time in the federal government but plays gigs throughout the area.

For this performance last Friday at the Gaia Java coffee shop, she shared the performance spotlight with guitarist Nathan Corr. They have performed together previously and it’s easy to see why – they have a chemistry and interaction that makes for a fun evening for their audience.

Nathan Corr is a recent Bachelor of Music graduate from Carleton University who can play rhythm and blues, bebop, standard jazz and virtually any music that grooves, shakes or shimmies.

These Friday music evenings at the Gaia Java Coffee Company shop at the Stittsville Shopping Centre (Shoppers Drug Mart plaza) on Stittsville Main Street in Stittsville are free with everyone welcome to attend, starting at 7 p.m. every Friday. Early arrival is recommended for the best seating.

This coming Friday, May 22, singer/ songwriter/guitarist Mario Pronovost was to be the scheduled performer but he has had to cancel due to illness. His replacement will be the Celtic harp duo “Acacia Lyra.”

While many residents in Richmond are aware of the development plans of Caivan Communities & Mattamy Homes, there is another developer looking to build homes in Richmond and they are coming to speak at the Richmond Village Association’s June 2nd General Meeting. Cardel Homes owns lands between Shea Road and Eagleson Road, just north of Perth Street. The land in question for their current development plan involves a portion of land that fronts onto Shea Road, directly north of the Richmond Marketplace development.

Cardel has not yet submitted plans to the City of Ottawa.

Recently, they met with me and expressed interest in meeting with the community prior to submitting any plans. That led to them getting in touch with the RVA and being added to their June 2nd agenda. This will give the community an opportunity to see Cardel’s plans and provide any comments that can be addressed prior to their application being submitted. The meeting begins at 7:30pm at the Richmond Arena.

Mayor’s Rural Expo & Food Aid Day

Tysen Lefebvre, second from right, is with Mme. Mitchell’s class at Stittsville Public School in Stittsville as the students present him with a giant cheque representing a $513 donation to his “Mission To A Million” campaign to raise one million dollars for Make-A-Wish Eastern Ontario, enough to enable the granting of 100 wishes for children facing life threatening health issues.

Mme. Mitchell’s class raised the funds by selling Make-A-Wish stars for two dollars each during Tysen’s Toonie Tuesday at the school on Tuesday, May 12.

Make-A-Wish stars raise $513 for Tysen Lefebvre’s ‘Mission’ Special to the News

The stars aligned for Tysen’s “Mission To A Million” on Tuesday, May 12.

That’s when students of Mme. Mitchell’s class at Stittsville Public School in Stittsville held Tysen’s Toonie Tuesday, selling Make-AWish stars for two dollars each to help raise funds for Tysen’s campaign.

The event also helped raise awareness of Tysen’s “Mission To A Million” campaign in which he is aiming to raise one million dollars for MakeA-Wish Eastern Ontario, enough to fund 100 wishes for 100 children facing life-threatening health issues.

The sale of these Make-A-Wish

stars resulted in a total of $513 being raised for Tysen’s “Mission To A Million” campaign.

Tysen is a hero in the eyes of Mme. Mitchell and her students. That’s why they wanted to help out by raising funds for Tysen’s campaign through the sale of Make-A-Wish stars at the school.

More information about Tysen and his “Mission To A Million” campaign can be found on the website www. missiontoamillion.ca .

Tysen will soon be reaching the quarter million dollar mark in his fundraising, with donations and support continuing to come in.

A fundraiser for Tysen and his

campaign that is coming up is a fundraiser called “Just Cause” which is being hosted by Cavanagh Construction and Patten Homes, with the goal of raising $10,000, enough for the granting of one wish by Make-A-Wish Eastern Ontario.

Tickets at $50 each for this “Just Cause” fundraising event on Friday, May 29 can be purchased on Tysen’s website under “Events” using PayPal or a credit card.

Everyone is welcome to participate and support this fundraiser.

The Youth Group of the AshtonMunster Pastoral Charge of the United Church is making a presentation to Tysen Lefebvre of Stittsville for his “Mission To A Million” fundraising campaign for Make-A-Wish Eastern Ontario this coming Sunday, May 24 at the 10 a.m. service at the Munster United Church in Munster.

Everyone is invited to attend this service and see the Youth Group presenting Tysen with a donation comprised of all of the funds that the Youth Group has raised since last October to support Tysen in his campaign.

Following the 10 a.m. service, there will be goodies and refresh-

ments served for everyone.

Tysen Lefebvre has now raised almost a quarter of a million dollars in his “Mission To A Million” campaign to raise a million dollars for Make-AWish Eastern Ontario. This will allow the granting of 100 wishes for children suffering from life-threatening health issues.

Tysen began the campaign a year and a half ago after his own wish, namely to meet actor Adam Sandler, was granted. He then wanted to help other children have their wishes granted and so he began his “Mission To A Million.”

Tysen, who is 14 years old now, is a student at Goulbourn Middle School.

On Saturday, June 6th & Sunday, June 7th, Doors Open Ottawa offers everyone a chance to explore buildings usually closed to the public, and it’s all free of charge.

Visitors will have free access to a total of 129 buildings, including 22 new additions to this year’s roster. New buildings include the Rideau Club, which will unlock 150 years of history and tradition, the Canadian Blood Services Processing Plant, the newly renovated Festival House, which houses the RBC Bluesfest, and the Advanced Research Complex at the University of Ottawa.

The complete list of buildings offers an eclectic mix of modern and heritage architecture and celebrates the city’s culturally, historically, and functionally significant buildings.

There’s something for everyone, from municipal facilities and government buildings to private businesses, artists’ studios and places of worship, to embassies and high commissions of countries across the globe. As always, there are also many Rideau-Goulbourn sites to explore as well.

Grace Zanichkowsky in movie john.curry@metroland.com

About two years ago Grace Zanichkowsky thought that she would like to be an actor.

With her mother’s support, she began taking classes at Angie’s Models & Talent International in Ottawa which helped her learn how to audition for roles and how to memorize a script.

The 14 year old grade eight student at Sacred Heart Catholic High School now has one movie to her credit as well as numerous auditions. Just last week, on Thursday, May 14, she was off to Montreal to audition for a federal government commercial.

The movie, a thriller called “Killer Crush,” was shot over six weeks in Ottawa last summer and can now be found on Lifetime and may get picked up by Netflix.

Grace describes her involvement with this movie as an “awesome experience,” although she recounts how she received the script only the day before the movie was to begin, giving her only one day to memorize the script.

But despite having to be on the set at 6 a.m. and remaining there to 12 midnight, she says that being part of the movie was the “funest thing” as she got to meet other actors and learned a lot.

Her role in the movie, that of the daughter of the main character, was substantial, involving about 15 different scenes, giving her lots of lines.

Grace says that she loves acting and in fact she says that if she could act 24/7, she would.

“I love drama,” she says.

Grace says that she has learned so much, not only from being in the movie but also from the classes which she has taken from Angie’s Models & Talent International. She now knows that she wants to be an actor for sure.

She says that she has learned to accept every audition offered, even if it means travelling to Toronto or elsewhere. It is all done in the hope that the audition will be “that one audition that will change everything.” She firmly John Curry

Sacred Heart Catholic High School grade eight student and aspiring actor Grace Zanichkowsky now has a movie to her credit, appearing in “Killer Crush” which can now be found on Lifetime.

It was “Fundraising 101” at the Rotary Club of Ottawa – Stittsville meeting on Wednesday, May 13.

And presenting the information

believes that her time will come and one of her auditions will lead to her big break.

Since becoming involved with acting, watching movies for Grace has changed, giving her a different perspective. She feels that watching movies will help make her a better actor, as she watches for tips and tricks that the actors use and tries to adopt them herself.

She says that she is always replaying movie scenes in her head to try to learn more.

Grace says that after being involved in a number of auditions, she has learned not only how to memorize the lines required but how to put her own character and emotion into them. She says that directors love it when someone auditioning changes the monologue so that it reflects their own personality, making the audition stand out.

Angie’s Models & Talent International with whom Grace works is a family-run agency with over two decades of success in the world of fashion, theatre and film, providing international representation to a roster of models and actors. Headquartered in Ottawa and Toronto with a satellite office

You can get rid of your old empties while also helping to combat diabetes.

Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s because the Stittsville District Lions Club is holding a â&#x20AC;&#x153;Case for a Cureâ&#x20AC;? bottle drive to help fight diabetes.

This Saturday, May 23 at the Lions Hall on Stittsville Main Street in Stittsville.

All you have to do is load up your bottles (beer, wine, coolers, cans and plastic) in your vehicle and stop by the Lions Hall anytime between 9 a.m. and 4 p.m. this Saturday and Lions Club members will be on hand to help you unload them so that you can be quickly on your way, knowing that your bottles are going to help support the fight against diabetes.

Diabetes is a group of diseases in which a person has high blood sugar, either because insulin production is inadequate or because the bodyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s cells to not respond properly to insulin or both.

In Type 1 diabetes, the body does not produce insulin. About ten percent of all diabetes cases are Type 1.

Type 2 diabetes is where the body does not produce enough insulin for proper functioning.

The most common diabetes symptoms include frequent urination, intense thirst and hunger, weight gain, unusual weight loss, fatigue, cults and bruises that do not heal, and numbness and tingling in hands and feet.

Those with Type 1 diabetes who follow a healthy eating plan, do adequate exercise and take insulin can lead a normal life.

The risk of cardiovascular disease is much higher for a diabetic so it is crucial that blood pressure and cholesterol levels are monitored regularly.

In 2013, it was estimated that over 382 million people around the world had diabetes.

Have Your Best Garden Ever in 2015 Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no secret that a great garden starts with great soil.

Soil is a source of nutrients, air and water essential to the establishment of healthy root systems in plants; but its supply is not infinite.

A neglected soil is far less likely to yield the results you are looking for in your perfect garden. Over time your soil can become nutrient deficient, compacted or thin which can make it difficult to grow and lead to poor plant health. A great soil is rich in nutrients, PH balanced and has excellent tilth, allowing for easy air and water flow.

Furthermore, a great soil should also be built up enough to allow your plantsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; roots plenty of room to grow deep and thus access more water and nutrients.

How can you take a tired, dull soil and turn it into a great soil? This can be accomplished using a number of techniques. One of the easiest ways to improve such a soil is by using an amendment or enhancer that is made up in large part of organic matter. Soil amendments are designed to be mixed in with existing soils to bolster areas in need of improvement.

The ideal time to introduce organic matter into your growing areas is in the Fall. This allows the beneficial microorganisms in your soil more time to become active before gardening season arrives. Not to worry though!

Even if you missed the window last fall, you can still get more out of your soil this Spring. There are great products on the market that can make a real difference in the results you see from your garden this year, including Manderleyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Premium Garden Soil â&#x20AC;&#x201C; which can be conveniently delivered right to your driveway in an easy-to-store cubic yard bag.

Manderleyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s soil mix is a 100% natural product consisting of black earth, organic fertilizer, compost, sand and lime. The organic content in the mix is quite high, which promotes microbial activity in your growing area. Microorganisms will work hard to mineralize the organic nutrients giving your plants more food for healthy growth. Each component in this mix contributes particles of different sizes and shapes. This results in improved airflow and drainage and reduces the risk of over compaction. The organic-based soil will also provide excellent water retention; something your plantsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; roots will really appreciate.

Giving your best garden ever the head start it deserves isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t rocket science. Follow these easy steps for best results: Step one - determine how much soil you need. Keep in mind that you should aim to maintain at least a 6â&#x20AC;? soil depth (pro tip â&#x20AC;&#x201C; top off your growing areas with 2â&#x20AC;? of soil every Fall to make up for soil loss caused by erosion, etc.).

Step two - go get your soil, or better yet, have it delivered without the mess or hassle.

Step three - till or turn over the existing soil in your growing areas.

Step four - add in your soil mix and ensure that your beds reach the appropriate depth. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s that easy.

Understanding the importance of maintaining a healthy soil is the first step in reaching your garden goals for 2015. By following these four steps and giving your plants proper care throughout the gardening season, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be amazed at the difference.

‘Shoot for the Cure’ Special to the News

According to legend, Robin Hood and his band of merry men used their archery skills in fighting for good causes.

Now you can also use archery to help out a great cause, supporting breast cancer research.

And it does not matter if you are an expert archer like Robin Hood apparently was or are a novice, never having shot a bow and arrow before.

Those of all skill levels and of all ages are all welcome to take part in a “Shoot for the Cure” fundraising event this Saturday, May 23 at That Hunting & Fishing Store at the Richmond Plaza in Richmond.

This is the initiative of Jennifer Lavigne of That Hunting & Fishing store whose family has been impacted by breast cancer. She has set a $2,000 fundraising goal for this inaugural “Shoot for the Cure” event.

It will run from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. this SaturJohn Curry/Metroland day, May 23, using the indoor archery range at Jennifer Lavigne of That Hunting & Fishing Store at the Richmond Plaza in Richmond the store. Everyone is welcome.

She will be on hand throughout the day to lines up an archery shot as she prepares for the “Shoot for the cure” fundraising event for the Canadian Cancer Society which will be held at the archery range at That Hunting & help anyone who has never used a bow and arrow before but who would like to give it a try.

Fishing Store this Saturday, May 23 with everyone of all ages welcome to participate.

The event is for everyone – beginners through to experience archers.

Bring along the whole family and give archery a try, either for the first time or for the umpteenth time.

The shooting will be free but donations to the Canadian Cancer Society will be accepted.

Participants will have the opportunity to aim at colourful balloons. If a balloon is hit and popped, the shooter will be entered in a door prize draw.

Jennifer will have a selection of bows available for people to use.

She says that this “Shoot for the Cure” event is a great opportunity for those who may want to try shooting a bow and arrow but have not yet taken up the opportunity. Well, this is the time to try while helping out in the fight against breast cancer at the same time.

All of the proceeds from the event are being donated to the Canadian Cancer Society in support of breast cancer research.

Experienced archers who normally pay for shooting at the range are welcome to participate in this “Shoot for the Cure,” making a donation rather than paying any fee for using the range.

Cake walk

Zoha Shoaic points out one of the cakes on display in the Aidan Osmond looks over one of the cakes in the cake walk held cake walk which was held at Westwind Public School in at Westwind Public School in Stittsville last Friday, May 15.

Stittsville last Friday, May 15.

He got everyone’s attention right off the bat when he said that there are basically 150,000 organizations and groups in Canada (both registered charities and not-forprofit groups without charitable status) that are looking for monetary donations on a regular basis.

He then noted that the average donor gives $446 a year to charitable causes while showing the “big picture” breakdown – religion 40 percent, health 15 percent, hospitals 6 percent, the environment 3 percent, arts and culture 1 percent, etc.

Brunette explained the difference between corporate philanthropy and sponsorship while going into the reasons why organizations fundraise (core operations, special projects, endowments, etc.).

He said that legacy gifts i.e. leaving a monetary gift in your will is probably the most underappreciated aspect in fundraising.

He explained the keys to successful fundraising such as building a case for support to convince potential donors that the cause is important and the importance of “the ask.” He said that the main reason that many people do not give to a cause is because they are not asked.

He said that it really all comes down to building relationships and inspiring people to give.

“The big gifts come from the heart, not the head,” he said.

Brunette advised that if people do give to a cause or project, make sure to keep them engaged on an ongoing basis. He wrapped up his presentation with the note that philanthropy can help with both the two certainties in everyone’s life – death and taxes.

Ten little fingers...check. Ten little toes...check. Narrowing of the aorta...check. Hypoplastic aortic

arch...check. Atrium septal defect and bicuspid valve...check. The news that Leo was born with multiple heart problems was devastating but the skilled professionals at CHEO were able to fix each one.

Fixing Leo’s heart defects required a seven hour open heart surgery, a stay in CHEO’s

neonatal intensive care unit, a stay in the pediatric intensive care unit post operatively, many sleepless nights for mom and dad and a difficult struggle by an amazing little boy. Today Leo is a happy and active three-year-old. It’s thanks to CHEO’s doctors and surgeons and the

vital pieces of equipment needed to support his little body during surgery and recovery

Debby Moore, senior office administrator at Sacred Heart Catholic High School and formerly office administrator at Holy Spirit Catholic School, on the unexpected death of her husband Robert (Bob) Moore on Sunday, May 10. He was 65. He is also survived by sons Kevin, Matthew and Michael and daughters Shannon and Emily as well as by five grandchildren. He was predeceased by his parents Arthur and Lois Moore and his brothers Tom and John. A mass in memory of Bob was held on Tuesday morning, May 19 at St. Clare’s Church at Dwyer Hill, with a reception following in the church hall. In memoriam donations to the University of Ottawa Heart Institute or to the Canadian Diabetes Association would be appreciated by the family….There are only a few around the village yet but there is vehicle rear window artwork that both Marion Gullock and Luc Therrien are sporting on the rear windows of their vehicles that shows an image of the Hamburglar relieving himself in a fun way on a Montreal Canadiens team logo.

Luc, who developed the image, says that the Montreal Canadiens logo can be replaced with another NHL team logo for those who don’t feel friendly towards a particular team (e.g. Toronto Maple Leafs?). This vehicle rear window artwork may go viral – who knows? …Francois Malo of Stittsville is one of four public members of the city of Ottawa’s transit commission…Sacred Heart Catholic High School student Victoria Gay was the published critic in the review of the production of “The Hunchback of Notre Dame” presented at St. Francis Xavier Catholic High School.

Planning is progressing on Stittsville’s Canada Day celebrations which are organized by the Stittsville Village Association. Activities will get underway at 3 p.m. on Canada Day, July 1st, which falls on a Wednesday this year, culminating as usual with a gala fireworks display about 10 p.m. There will be inflatable activities for youngsters as well as lots of entertainment on stage. These celebrations happened at the front of Sacred Heart High School adjacent to the Trans Canada Trail. Some residents in the adjacent Moss Hill Trail/Lone Meadow Trail/Havenwood Trail area of Amberwood have expressed concerns about the noise from the continuous entertainment that day. This year the entertainment stage will be turned a little more away from facing directly at the Amberwood community which may help the noise levels somewhat. There will be no second entertainment stage this year, unlike last year.

These Canada Day activities are granted an exception to the city’s noise bylaw…The Goulbourn Township Historical Society is looking for a volunteer with secretarial skills to take minutes at its Board meetings.

Firefighting is focus at Historical Society meeting john.curry@metroland.com

In 1959, a truck was purchased and remodelled to be a 1,000 gallon tanker truck.

In 1964, the long time phone operators were replaced with modern switching equipment, requiring a system of fire phones to be installed. These fire phones which rang when someone phoned the fire emergency phone number of 836-1212 were located in the homes of the fire chief, the four captains and Bill Bradley’s grocery store. The first one to answer the ringing phone would push a switch on the phone that would activate the fire siren.

Howard Maguire became the fire chief in 1967, replacing Ray McCaffrey.

In 1968, the former fire hall at the corner of what is now Stittsville Main Street and Carleton Cathcart Street was opened with room for fire trucks and a meeting room. The year 1968 also saw the installation of a two way radio system, with the base radio in the fire hall and mobile radios in three vehicles including the chief’s vehicle.

In 1972, the fire chief’s position became full time while in 1974, with the amalgamation of the villages of Stittsville and Richmond with rural Goulbourn township, the fire department became the Goulbourn Fire Department with the Stittsville and Richmond departments amalgamating.

In the early 1980’s, the Carleton Apartments for seniors were built right behind the fire hall. This meant that the fire siren could no longer be used and was replaced with a pager system. The firefighters today still use pagers, albeit smaller ones that convey written data rather than featuring voice communication as the original ones did.

It was in the 1980’s that the fire department got more equipment, namely a former Bell Canada van that was renovated to serve to carry the equipment needed for medical aid calls and extrication calls. In 1987, the department got a $315,000 aerial ladder truck after the value of having the ability to reach high places in a building was demonstrated at a fire at Hobbs general store in Munster where the fire department used an Ontario Hydro bucket truck to reach parts of the burning building.

In 1990, Howard Maguire retired and was replaced by Joe Beckett who had been fire chief in Rideau township.

Captain Bedard noted that Joe Beckett was fire chief during the Ice Storm of 1998 when firefighters worked around the clock in the early days of the Ice Storm, responding to emergency calls, particularly from farmers who needed water for their livestock.

Terry Gervais replaced Joe Beckett at fire chief in 1998 and was chief at the time of the amalgamation of fire services in 2001 with the creation of the new city of Ottawa.

Chief Gervais stayed on with the new city as a rural sector chief, working diligently to preserve and enhance the role of volunteer firefighters in the rural areas of the new city.

In 2000, just before the formation of the new city, the new fire hall that is now Station 81 of the Ottawa Fire Services was opened. It was named the Sterling Howie Fire Hall in honour of long time District Chief and Captain Sterling Howie who passed away in 2010.

“He was my mentor, my hero,” Captain Bedard said about Sterling Howie, noting that the naming of the fire hall after him was a well deserved honour.

YEARS YEARS

Captain Bedard then recounted some of the larger fires that had been fought by Stittsville firefighters over the years. These included a fire at the Ashton feed mill, a barn fire at Elmer Cathcart’s farm on Flewellyn Road, a fire which destroyed the Laurysen Kitchens facility on Carp Road, the fire which gutted the Stittsville Trailers on Stittsville Main Street right across from the fire hall, the fire which gutted the Mac’s Plaza at the corner of Hobin Street and Main Street, the fire which destroyed Roger’s Cleaners on Stittsville Main Street and the 2013 fire which broke out at the former Bradley General Store building on Stittsville Main Street beside the Trans Canada Trail.

At this meeting at the Stittsville branch of the Ottawa Public Library, Captain Bedard had a number of old photographs and newspaper clippings about Stittsville firefighters and fires in the community. After the meeting and a refreshment break, Captain Bedard gave a tour of the adjacent Station 81 fire hall to those at the meeting who wished to see the facility. Current Ottawa Fire Services Sector Chief Todd Horricks was in attendance for both the presentation by Captain Bedard and the tour of the fire hall.

The role of volunteer firefighters in Stittsville and the history of firefighting in the community were both explained by long time Stittsville volunteer firefighter Brian Bedard at last Saturday’s May monthly meeting of the Goulbourn Township Historical Society.

Bedard, who joined the volunteer firefighting brigade in Stittsville in 1977, is now the Captain at Ottawa Fire Service station 81 on Stittsville Main Street in Stittsville.

“I love to do it,” Captain Bedard said about being a volunteer firefighter in the community, saying that when people ask him if he is thinking of retiring from the role, he says he will only if it is not fun anymore and if he does not enjoy going to the fire hall. Right now this is not the case, so retirement is not in the cards.

He explained that volunteer firefighters play a vital role in the community, saying that volunteer firefighters are the same as full time firefighters except for two things: where they are when they get the emergency call and how much they get paid.

He said that volunteer firefighters receive the same training as full time firefighters, with weekly training sessions held.

“Firefighters don’t just respond for fire calls,” Captain Bedard noted, pointing out that they also respond to medical aid calls ranging from scrapped knees to heart attacks; to carbon monoxide calls; single and multi-vehicle accidents; natural gas leaks; and assistance for paramedics.

“When our pagers go off, that means someone needs our help,” he said.

Stittsville’s volunteer firefighters also are involved in community events such as helping at the Canada Day seniors breakfast and at the Canada Day fireworks, visiting schools to tell about the dangers of fire, providing tours at the

fire hall and raising funds to help someone in need in the community such as young Anderson Bihler who as a seven year old suffered a brain aneurysm and massive stroke that initially threatened his life.

Captain Bedard explained that organized firefighting in Stittsville had its beginnings in a 1943 fire at Bradley’s grist mill which resulted in a call for help to the Nepean Fire Department, resulting in a $125 bill.

This convinced the Stittsville community that it needed some kind of firefighting force and so a Stittsville fire department was established under the banner of the Stittsville Board of Trade, an organization that existed at the time. Early leaders for this fire department were Art Bassett, Ernie LaSalle, Cliff Switzer and Jim LeBarron.

An old GMC fire truck was purchased and renovated for use by this new fire department.

Ernie LsSalle became the first fire chief, serving from 1947 to 1951.

The fire department grew to cover Goulbourn township as well since many of the calls came from Goulbourn locations. In 1948, Goulbourn township passed a bylaw establishing a fire department. At that time Stittsville was part of Goulbourn township.

Art Bassett served as fire chief from 1951 to 1956, being succeeded by Cliff Switzer who was fire chief from 1957 to 1959 when Ray McCaffrey took over, holding the position to 1967.

In 1952, a new pumper truck was purchased to replace the original 1929 pumper truck.

In 1955, a fire siren was installed at the fire hall and it is still there, albeit not used for over 30 years now. This fire siren was used to alert firefighters and the community to the outbreak of a fire.

Under chief McCaffrey, the fire department saw improvements such as breathing apparatus, dry chemical extinguishers and a portable pump for getting water from streams and ponds.

Major karting event at Karters Korner in July fering cash prizes of $5,000 plus trophies and prizes, this Capital Karting Grand Prix will also have a charitable component called the Mayor’s Cup of Wishes that will see corporate-sponsored teams raise money for a number of charities including the Children’s Wish Foundation, the Ottawa Senators Foundation, Roger’s House, Soldier On and the Cystic Fibrosis Canada.

Organizers hope to attract 30 such corporate five-member teams, each of which must raise at least $2,500.

The teams in the Mayor’s Cup of Wishes

racing will be provided with their karts and racing gear.

The event’s chief organizer, Enrico Valente, in a presentation to the Stittsville Village Association (SVA) at its meeting on Thursday, May 14, said that spectator attendance at this year’s inaugural event will probably be about 5,000 people which he said would make it a huge success. He said that a similar event in Trois Rivieres in Quebec which has been going for a number of years attracts about 30,000 people.

He said that the city of Ottawa and Tour-

ism Ottawa are both supporting this Capital Karting Grand Prix, with the goal being that the event will grow into a motorsport festival. Besides the racing, this year’s event will include a family fun zone as Karters Korner south of Stittsville will be well. the site for a new major go karting event this There will be free admission for spectators to atsummer. tend the event, with expenses being covered by corThe first Capital Karting Grand Prix which porate sponsorships which also means that every cent is expected to draw kart racers from across raised in the Mayor’s Cup of Wishes will go directly Ontario, Quebec and northern New York to the designated charities.

People usually only know karting from rental experiences. It will be different for this event as spectators will be encouraged, not only for the kart racing but to witness the Mayor’s Cup of Wishes racing action.

Enrico says that this Capital Karting Grand Prix will be a way to sharing the excitement of the sport of karting with people who are perhaps not familiar with the sport.

“It will be a first class event,” he says, noting that Stittsville and its businesses will benefit the most from the event due to their proximity to the Karters Korner track. He says that the event will be staged at the Karters Korner track for as long as possible, leaving only if the event outgrows the facility.

This Capital Karting Grand Prix not only has the support of city of Ottawa mayor Jim Watson but also has notables such as Gen. Lewis MacKenzie, a race car enthusiast, and city of Ottawa councillor and sports commissioner Jody Mitic, another motorsport fan, on its advisory board.

A number of sponsorship packages have been developed by the organizers, ranging from a Grand Prix title and presenting sponsor opportunity for $30,000 to a so-called “Winners’ Circle Supporting Sponsor” at $10,550 to a Checkered Flag Sponsor at $1,000 to a Testing Sponsor at $500. Each sponsorship level offers different features such as a banner presence at the event, media and website visibility, VIP hosting area access passes and commemorative t-shirts.

Just take a picture of what you are selling and you are pretty much done!

‘The Bright Side of Life’ presented by Male Chorus Special to the News

The Goulbourn Male Chorus presented its inaugural concert under new music director Byron Hermann at the Trinity Presbyterian Church on Richardson Sideroad on Saturday afternoon, May 9 – and what a concert it was!

No wonder there was a full audience standing ovation at the conclusion of the concert.

Entitled “The Bright Side of Life,” the concert certainly delivered on this titular promise with an array of folk songs, spirituals and, for the first time for the Male Chorus, Broadway tunes.

MC Bill Horsman introduced the group’s new music director Byron Hermann before the Male Chorus began its program.

And what a program! Some of the highlights include a rendition of “Sing Your Way Home” by the a cappella ensemble “Men of Note. “ And then there was another a cappella performance of the ever-opular “Danny Boy.” It was after the intermission that the Male Chorus embarked on a medley of Broadway numbers including songs from such musicals as “Cabaret” and “Fiddler on the Roof.”

Soloist Paul Therrien with his deep rich voice captivated the audience with his rendition of “Ol’ Man River.”

Guest soprano soloist Skye McDiarmid, who has performed with the Male Chorus previously, sang “Can You Feel The Love Tonight” from The Lion King, backed up by an ensemble of Male Chorus voices.

She followed this with a solo rendition of “Summertime” from George Gershwin’s 1935 opera “Porgy and Bess.”

This concert also featured two audience singalong numbers while the concert ended with

the light-hearted “Always Look on the Bright Side of Life” from the musical comedy “Spamalot” which parodied the legend of King Authur and his knights.

The 2005 Broadway production of “Spamalot” won three Tony awards including the award for best musical. Martin Edwards of the Male Chorus was the featured soloist for “Always Look on the Bright Side of Life.”

Continuing with its tradition of supporting the community, the Male Chorus presented a donation to the Stittsville Food Bank at the concert.

The Male Chorus was accompanied by Liliane McKennirey for the concert.

This spring concert proved popular as extra chairs had to be provided in order to accommodate the audience which was larger than expected.

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

Q: I noticed a lot of houses are going to up for sale at this time of year and my spouse and I are interested in possibly purchasing a home. Are there any tax incentives available to first time home buyers?

If you are a first time home buyer you may be eligible to receive assistance from federal programs such as the First Time Home Buyers’ Tax Credit and the Home Buyers’ Plan. You may also be eligible for a partial refund of the Ontario Land Transfer Tax. First Time Home Buyers’ Tax Credit (HBTC) The First Time Home Buyers’ Tax Credit is available for the taxation year in which a first home is purchased. The value of this tax credit is $5,000. It can lower a person’s income tax by up to $750.

Home Buyer’s Plan (HBP) A home buyer can withdraw up to $25,000 from an RRSP if the funds are used towards the purchase of their home.

Although there are no immediate tax consequences at the time of withdrawal, the full amount withdrawn must be repaid to the RRSP within 15 years. In order to qualify, the purchaser must not have owned a home in the preceding four years.

Land Transfer Tax (LTT) The Land Transfer Tax is paid to the Ontario government whenever there is a registered change of ownership of real property. While there are certain exceptions, the Land Transfer Tax is generally payable whenever someone purchases a residential home. The amount of the Land Transfer Tax depends on the purchase price.

First time home buyers get a Land Transfer Tax refund up to a maximum of $2,000. To qualify for this refund, you must not have owned a home anywhere in the world in the past and you must use your new home as your primary residence within nine months of the purchase. If you are buying a home together with someone that is not a first time home buyer, you can still receive half of the refund.

Just ask the Poole Creek Quilters, a quilting group in Stittsville, which has seen its membership grow to 40 and then 50 and then 60 and now to 70 members, with the membership now capped at that number.

The Poole Creek Quilters now meets on Mondays twice a month at the Stittsville United Church on Fernbank Road and at its meeting on Monday, May 11, the group took time to honour its founders who ten years ago took a chance and began the group.

Anita Wong displays her quilt which was all done by hand. Anita joined the Poole Creek Quilters at its first meeting after reading about the new group in the paper after having just moved to Stittsville. member of the group for the past four and a half years, in introducing the four ladies, said that without their insight and effort, all of the quilters who filled the basement hall at the church that morning would not be there, enjoying the friendships that they had formed in the quilting group.

She said that there had been a lot of laughs and enjoyment experienced over the years since the group was formed ten years ago, noting that the group has grown from the initial four mem-

bers to its current 70 members.

Beverley Darlington, one of the founding members, credited fellow original member Lynda Smith with actually coming up with the idea of having a quilting group in Stittsville.

They were coming back from attending a meeting of a quilting group in Hudson, Quebec at the time and the new Stittsville group would be modelled on its example.

Poole Creek Quilters mark tenth anniversary

“We gambled,” Beverley says, noting that posters were put up advertising the formation of the new group which initially met once a month in the upstairs room at Brown’s Your Independent Grocer. It eventually relocated to the Stittsville United Church on Fernbank Road where it now meets twice a month.

Beverley says that the Poole Creek Quilters provides those interested in quilting with an opportunity to be with other quilters and to meet new people as well. She says that there is a creative energy at the group’s meetings where quilters not only get ideas from each other but also serve to motivate each other as well.

She says that a quilter never knows ev-

erything and so can always learn something from other quilters.

Lynda Smyth, another of the founding members, says that the Poole Creek Quilters is an opportunity for quilters to get away from everything and share with each other.

She says that while men like to go and play golf, quilters like to get together and talk.

She says that quilters not only enjoy the camaraderie of the group but also they learn from each other as some in the group are perhaps more experienced in one aspect of quilting and are able to help other others.

Lynda calls the group’s meetings both motivating and inspiring while noting that quilting is now becoming popular with today’s younger generation.

She noted that when she and the others started the Poole Creek Quilters, none of them knew if there were any other quilters in Stittsville. Well, the past ten years have proven that yes, there are other quilters in Stittsville and, indeed, lots of them.

Founding member Barbara Karim remembers that the founders put up notices about the new group in the hope that someone would come to the meetings upstairs at Brown’s Your Independent Grocer. The founders were amazed when quilters started coming, Barbara recounts.

She says that in the “show and tell” portion of the meetings, quilters can learn things, perhaps some little tip that will help them in their own quilting projects.

She notes that quilting is more popular now than ever all around the world while adding that machine quilting has become particularly popular recently.

She herself admits to always having some quilting on the go and indeed, she’s always working on more than one project.

OC Transpo tells about service and then listens to people john.curry@metroland.com

They came, they talked and then they listened.

This was what happened at the information meeting about OC Transpo services in Stittsville which took place at the Goulbourn Recreation Complex on Shea Road on Wednesday, May 13.

Seven senior staff from OC Transpo were on hand for the meeting including two assistant general managers.

Following a presentation by OC Transpo about the existing and planned new services to the Stittsville community, the 30 people in attendance broke into three groups, one dealing with the community’s express service, another dealing with the all day service in the community and the third dealing with future services. There were 20 minute discussions for each group, after which the groups moved around to deal with a different topic.

In the OC Transpo presentation, it was explained that different size buses, ranging

from the 45 passenger 40 foot bus to the 90 passenger double decker bus, are allocated to routes based on the average load on that route at the busiest point in its busiest hour.

It was explained how service is introduced into new communities, with the criteria being that there must be at least 500 homes constructed beyond 800 metres from existing all day service or 250 homes constructed beyond 400 metres from existing express service before new routes will be introduced. OC Transpo does work with developers to bring transit service to a new community as soon as possible, with the developer footing the bill.

OC Transpo keeps track of what is happening in the transit system in several ways.

Twelve percent of the OC Transpo fleet is equipped with automatic passenger counters that provide information about where passengers get off and on and at what times.

OC Transpo also relies on service reports from bus operators as well as service checks

by OC Transpo supervisors.

Receiving overload notifications from bus operators are another way that OC

Transpo keeps track of what is going on in the system.

OC Transpo also has GPS on all of its vehicles.

And, finally, OC Transpo relies on customer calls, emails and social media interactions as another way of determining what is happening in the bus system.

OC Transpo has data on peak hour ridership, load levels on buses and “on time” performance by buses.

OC Transpo admits that there were capacity problems with peak hour service to Stittsville this past January and February.

One reason was that only lower capacity buses were available so that overloads occurred. In addition, the winter weather causes traffic delays which created delays in the service. When delays happen, then overloads result as there are more people waiting at bus stops who then crowd onto the first bus that appears.

New service coming to Stittsville in June includes a new off peak route 162 that will service the West Ridge area and the Tanger Mall.

Peace Park event Special to the News

You will be able to get a first-hand look at Stittsville’s new peace park on Saturday, June 6.

That’s when the Rotary Club of Ottawa – Stittsville and the city of Ottawa’s Better Neighbourhood Program are hosting the first public event at the new peace park which is being developed at Bell Memorial

The book club at the Legion is currently reading “Valley of Amazement” by Amy Tan. The club will be meeting on Tuesday, May 26 at 7 p.m. at the Legion Hall.

At the end of the year, Hurley’s will issue a cheque to the Stittsville Legion for ten percent of the total amount attributed to Team # 1632. So this is a great deal – you get to enjoy yourself at Hurley’s and the Stittsville Legion gets some financial help.

It’s a win/win situation.

EUCHRE WINNERS Shirley Pretty had the most lone hands at the euchre at the Legion Hall on Stittsville Main Street on Tuesday, May 12.

labyrinth, special plantings, walking paths, a friendship bench and other features. For those who wish, you can arrange to have an engraved brick in the pathway leading to the labyrinth. While the event is being planned for Saturday, June 6, there is a rain date as well, just in case. And the rain date will be the next day, Sunday, June 7, also from 11:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. Bell Memorial Park, site of this new Rotary Peace Park, is flanked by Stittsville Main Street, Fernbank Road and Cherry Drive.

Also in June, route 96A is being renumbered to route 92 to avoid confusion which now exists about the route since there is also a route 96.

OC Transpo officials at the information meeting received feedback about OC Transpo service in Stittsville when the audience broke into three groups for facilitated discussions about the service.

Express routes 261 and 263 were criticized as not being as popular as route 262.

The dilemma is whether more service can be provided, leading to more ridership, or whether first there needs to be more ridership before more service can be provided.

It’s the old “chicken or egg” dilemma.

There is also a need for more late night service to accommodate shift and other workers.

A shorter travel time to downtown is desired as is greater reliability of service, more bus shelters in Stittsville itself and new ways to deal with the turmoil created on Ottawa Senator games nights.

Another concern is the existing 30 minute frequency for the all day service, as 30 minutes is felt to be too long a time between buses.

Stittsville Lions support two programs providing vision care services John Curry

john.curry@metroland.com

The Stittsville District Lions Club is supporting two Lions Club initiatives that are providing vision care services in one case internationally and, in the other, locally.

At a recent meeting, the Stittsville District Lions Club presented a donation of $1,000 to the Kemptville Lions Club for its work providing eye care to such overseas locations as Guyana, a Caribbean country on the coast of South America.

Previously, the Stittsville District Lions Club has provided a $1,000 donation to help the mobile eye clinic program that has been established by the District A4 Lions in partnership with Lenscrafters, Bruyere Continuing Care and the Canadian Council for the Blind.

This mobile eye clinic, established JOHN CURRY/METROLAND Don Redtman, right, president of the Stittsville District Lions Club, and Beth Lewis, centre, immediate past in 2013, visits schools in the Ottawa president of the Stittsville District Lions Club, present Lion Robert Sentner of the Kemptville Lions Club area, providing comprehensive eye with a giant cheque representing a donation of $1,000 by the Stittsville District Lions Club to the Kemptville exams.

At a recent meeting of the StittsLions Clubâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s eye care program.

ville District Lions Club, members were given an update about both of these Lions Club initiatives.

Robert Sentner of the Kemptville Lions Club told about the Clubâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s most recent eye care trip to Guyana where they saw about 200 people a day over a five day period. They took along thousands of eyeglasses which have been donated to the Kemptville Club, collected from other area Lions Clubs as well as from the offices of eye care practitioners and pharmacies.

Eye doctors and eye care professionals from across Canada are part of the team that takes part in these trips organized by the Kemptville Lions Club in partnership with a local Lions Club in the country visited.

On this latest trip, a total of 963 people were examined over five days, with 833 pairs of glasses dispensed.

Serious eye issues such as cataract conditions were referred to a hospital in Georgetown where surgeries can be performed.

Lions support vision care Continued from page 48

At this same meeting, Stittsville District Lions Club members heard from Past District A4 Governor Lion Andy Etherington of the Cumberland Lions Club about the mobile eye clinic which has been launched in the Ottawa area as a partnership involving District A4 Lions Clubs, Lenscrafters, Bruyere Continuing Care and the Canadian Council for the Blind.

This mobile eye clinic was established in 2013, visiting schools in Ottawa and the surrounding area and providing comprehensive eye exams by an optometrist in the schools. The program offers professional eye care on-site and ensures continuity of care after the examination.

As of March 2015, this mobile eye clinic has performed eye exams on 751 children in 12 schools. Of these children, 140 of them or 19 percent were diagnosed with one or more significant refractive errors and in some cases were also diagnosed with another ocular conditions.

Lions Etherington noted that these statistics are “pretty startling numbers for our community here in Canada.”

Even though Canada is a rich country, there is still a vision care problem, he said.

The mobile eye clinic also visits seniors residences and the results from these eye examinations show that 63 percent of seniors in these residences have vision issues.

The Canadian Council for the Blind, which is involved with the District A4 Lions Club in this mobile eye clinic program, is the largest membership-based organization for the blind in Canada. Founded in 1944 by blind war veterans, other organizations involved with the blind and schools for the blind. Its national office is located in Ottawa.

The Canadian Council for the Blind offers programs JOHN CURRY/METROLAND At a recent Stittsville District Lions Club meeting at which eye care programs were discussed are, from left, Stittsville District to assist those with vision loss and also works to create Lions Club president Don Redtman; Dr. Corinne Motluk of Stittsville Optometry; Dr. Louise Hale of Richmond Optometry; awareness of vision issues to both the public and government.

Optometrists Dr. Corrine Motluk of Stittsville and Dr. Louise Hale of Richmond both attended a recent meeting of the Stittsville District Lions Club where vision care programs were highlighted.

They heard about the Kemptville Lions Club’s ongoing program which provides vision care in countries such as Guyana in South America. They also heard about the District A4 Lions mobile eye clinic program in partnership with the Canadian Council of the Blind, Lenscrafters and Bruyere Continuing Care.

In addition, they were able to inform those at the meeting about the new “Eye See…Eye Learn!” program that has been introduced in the Ottawa area for junior kindergarten students.

Both Dr. Motluk (and, indeed the other three optometrists at Stittsville Optometry) and Dr. Hale at Richmond Optometry are involved with this “Eye See…Eye Learn” (ESEL) program which allows students in junior kindergarten to have a free eye examination (with a valid OHIP card) and, if they require glasses, they can get a free pair of glasses under the program. These glasses are donated by Nikon Lenswear, OGI

(a glasses frame company) and the participating Doctor of Optometry.

Children currently attending junior kindergarten (born in 2010) are eligible for the program until June 30 of this year. As of July 1, 2015, it will be students starting junior kindergarten this coming September (born in 2011) who will be eligible for the program.

More information about the program can be found on the website for the Ontario Association of Optometrists (OAO) at http://www.optom.on.ca/OAO/ESEL/AboutESEL.aspx .

The goal of the Ontario Association of Optometrists is to inform the public about the importance of having children’s eyes checked on a regular basis and particularly before they start school. Behavioural problems can sometimes be mis-diagnosed and this can be avoided if a child’s eyes are checked for vision problems right up front, just as the child is starting school.

At Stittsville Optometry, some free pairs of glasses have already been dispensed under the program, all free of charge to the families of junior kindergarten students.

For more information, please contact Stittsville Optometry at 613-836-2030 or Richmond Optometry at 613-838-4308.

All of the proceeds from this new “Friend of the Warriors” sponsorship level go to offset player fee shortfalls.

“Every young child deserves to feel the satisfaction, pride and thrill that come from contributing to a team,” says Bell Warriors president Paul Stewart. “Football is the ultimate sport and the Warriors are committed to make it affordable and accessible to all. We believe our community feels the same way and we work as hard as your young players to engage and appreciate partners and supporters,” Stewart added.

Lemonade stand at Kiddie Kobbler raises funds to help battle cancer John Curry john.curry@metroland.com

The big day for the third annual Great Canadian Lemonade Standemonium is Saturday, June 6 but four youngsters got a jump on things last Saturday as they set up a lemonade stand in front of the Kiddie Kobbler store on Hazeldean Road in Stittsville.

The lemonade stand featured an Hawaiian beach shack motif with a grass skirt at the front, greenery at the sides and a roof. Besides lemonade, either pink or white, the stand also offered cookies. The four youngsters operating the lemonade stand were Violet MacIntosh, Cassidy MacIntosh, Ben Rodgers and Isabelle Madden.

Brown’s Your Independent Grocer provided a good deal on the lemonade which was offered at this lemonade stand.

Joanne Rodgers of the Kiddle Kobbler store offered a five dollar discount to customers who made a five dollar donation at the lemonade stand. Kiddle Kobbler is a supporter of the Great Canadian lemonade Standemonium and is one of the major prize donors for the event.

This will not be a one-time thing as the lemonade stand will be set up in front of the Kiddie Kobbler store both this coming Saturday, May 23 and Saturday, May 30 from 10 a.m. to 12 noon, all leading up to Saturday, June 6 when there should be lemonade stands set up

throughout the community as part of the third annual Great Canadian Lemonade Standemonium which raises funds for the Ottawa Regional Cancer Foundation.

This year’s third annual Cardel Homes Great Canadian Lemonade Standemonium presented

by Palladium Insurance raises funds for the Ottawa Regional Cancer Foundation. In the past two years, the event has raised $119,000 which amounts to a lot of lemonade served.

But the need for funding to help battle cancer continues to be great. Each year in the Ottawa community, there are 6,000 new cancer cases diagnosed while 30,000 people are going through cancer treatments like chemotherapy and radiation each year.

One of the ways that the Ottawa Regional Cancer Foundation helps is through its cancer coaches program which ensures that there are knowledgeable people available to help families which are dealing with cancer.

Youngsters can register to participate in this year’s Great Canadian Lemonade Standemonium by going to the website www.ottawacancer. ca/lemonade. There is a five dollar registration fee to cover the cost of a welcome kit that will be provided.

9th Annual

Girls Night Out

e r a s t e k c i T T! U O D L O S

Our 9th annual Girls Night Out event out in less than three weeks! On May 29, 2015 over 700 lucky ladies will be treated to an exciting evening at the Algonquin college. This year’s nautical theme will be sure to please. Back by popular demand, the firefighters will escort each lady to her seat where she will enjoy a fabulous meal, shop the huge silent & live auctions and dance the night away!

Thank you to our fabulous sponsors & supporters

Come set sail with us for an unforgettable evening in support of Hospice Care Ottawa!

Hospice Care Ottawa is a community-based charitable organization. We offer palliative and end-of-life services at no cost to people living in the city of Ottawa. Delivery of our services is made possible through the support of a small dedicated staff, many volunteers and generous donors.

What is Hospice Care?

Hospice Care is different from other types of health care in a number of ways:  Comfort vs. cure: For most health care professionals, the goal is to help people get well. At Hospice Care Ottawa, the staff, volunteers and family focus on comfort, support and care rather than cure.  Family focus: Hospice care focuses on the entire family. Hospice staff and volunteers help family members become involved in the client’s care.  Grief support: Bereavement support staff and volunteers maintain contact with family members for up to a year after the death of their loved one.

What did you do on your summer vacation?

Give your kids a summer to remember by registering them in a City of Ottawa summer camp. They will create memories to last a lifetime, make new friends, and maybe even discover their future life direction.

Sing-alongâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s, messy crafts, dress up, tag and kick the ball â&#x20AC;&#x201C; are better with friends. Our camp activities are age appropriate, theme based and offer lots of variety from active sports to quiet time, special guests, events and parties. Organized group play includes arts and crafts, skits and songs, competition and cooperation.

We also offer camps across the city where you can find that specialized program for your artist, athlete or diva! Many camps are close enough to walk or bike to, or why not consider carpooling with neighbours? Summer is a great time to be someone else, do something different, or create a masterpiece. Meet other kids or go with your best friend.

Sports Camps offer a chance to improve skills with drills and game play. We have sport specific instructors with lots of tips and strategy to help you play the game. Practice, practice, practice!

Summer and water go hand in hand. Beat the heat in a water fun camp, work on reaching that next level of swimming through lessons, or learn a water sport. Wet and wild fun!

Win a week of Camp! Register before June 1 Register for summer camps before June 1, and your registrations will automatically be part of a draw where 50 lucky campers will win back their registered week of camp, with a value of up to $250. For details, visit ottawa.ca/summercamps.

Check out the summer adventures in your neighbourhood. Remember, the more you register, the more chances to win!

Ottawa Valleyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Premier Rental Retirement Community Presents...

MARY COOK Audrey grows up, a boy comes calling, Mary Cookâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Memories and a car ride had no idea who would be coming, but he must be someone special for Mother and Audrey to go to all that trouble. But I had made up my mind not to like him, regardless how highfalutin he was.

Well, finally, a car drove into the yard. It was as black as your boot, and the top folded down, and you could see the shining inside right from the kitchen window. And then this tall streak of manhood unwrapped himself from the front seat, leaving the motor purring like a kitten.

Mother shook his hand, Audrey was as red as a beat, and I did nothing more than nod when Audrey said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is my little sister Mary.â&#x20AC;?

Well, what happened next was like something right out of a storybook. â&#x20AC;&#x153;So this is Mary,â&#x20AC;? he said, ruffling my hair. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Well, I think a trip to Briscoeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s General Store for some ice cream is in order. What do you say, Mary?â&#x20AC;? I was in that slick car before you could say â&#x20AC;&#x153;Jack Robinson.â&#x20AC;?

Audrey was helped into the front seat, and we tore out the lane like a bullet.

Never did I feel so important. In my mindâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s eye I pictured myself in a long dress with flowers in my hair at my sisterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s wedding. I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t care if he was Lutheran, United or a Catholic from Mount St. Patrick.

My little friend on the next farm, Velma, had three older sisters, and they were already going to dances and strawberry socials, usually at the Lutheran Church, so Velma knew all there was to know about sisters growing up. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Just wait until your sister Audrey starts bringing a boy home for Sunday supper,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You can be sure theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll soon be talking about a wedding.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;And donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t think he has to be a Lutheran either,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Two of my sisters are seeing boys from the United Church.â&#x20AC;?

She curled her lip.

Well, it wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t long after that little talk that one Saturday, the house was in a state of turmoil like I hadnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t seen since we got a phone call that the member of Parliament was paying a call to the farm.

Audrey was sent upstairs to the trunk in the hall and told to bring down the white linen tablecloth Mother had brought from New York, and which was only used at Christmas time or when Aunt Lizzie came from Regina. Well!

Something was going on, let me tell you.

And then it hit me, just like a bolt of lightning. We would be having a boy Audrey was sweet on coming for supper.

I was determined not to like whoever it was. I

Free Open Table community dinner

Mini rhubard Pavlovas are nice light dessert Foodland Ontario

Special to the News

Pavlova is the national dessert of New Zealand, usually made larger than these. Dazzle your guests with this mini version topped with local rhubarb. Preparation time: 40 minutes. Cooking time: 10 minutes.

Baking time: 50 minutes. Serves eight.

Ingredients * 750 ml (3 cups) chopped rhubarb * 75 ml (1/3 cup) liquid honey * 10 ml (2 tsp) grated orange rind * 15 ml (1 tbsp) orange juice * 175 ml (3/4 cup) whipping

cream * 15 ml (1 tbsp) granulated sugar Meringues * 4 egg whites * 175 ml (3/4 cup) granulated sugar * 5 ml (1 tsp) white wine vinegar * 5 ml (1 tsp) cornstarch * 2 ml (1/2 tsp) vanilla Preparation In a bowl, beat the egg whites using an electric mixer until soft peaks form, about two minutes. Sprinkle with sugar, and beat on high speed until stiff and shiny, about five minutes. In a small bowl, combine the vinegar, cornstarch and vanilla. On low speed, beat the cornstarch mix-

ture into the egg whites just until blended.

Spoon the mixture into eight mounds at least five centimetres (two inches) apart, onto two parchment paper-lined baking sheets. Using the back of a spoon, shape each mound into a nest with a slight indent in the centre.

Place in a 180 C (350 F) oven and immediately reduce heat to 150 C (300 F). Bake for 30 minutes. Turn off the heat and leave in the oven for 20 minutes. Remove to a wire rack and let cool.

In a medium saucepan, combine the rhubarb, honey, orange rind and juice and bring to a boil over medi-

um heat, stirring occasionally. Cook the sauce, stirring frequently, until thickened -- about seven minutes.

Let it cool and then chill until itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s cold.

Whip the cream with sugar until itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s stiff. Fold in 175 ml (3/4 cup) of the rhubarb sauce. Spoon about 50 ml (1/4 cup) of the cream mixture into each meringue. Serve topped with a dollop of the remaining rhubarb sauce.

Tips: Meringues can be filled with the cream mixture a few hours ahead, but top with the rhubarb sauce just before serving. Make the meringues a few days ahead and store in airtight containers.

Special to the News

You would catch up with the kids: You would be so proud: Tara is travelling with work and loves it, Joel is so much like you - your smile and wit. Cork’s a college grad, and our baby girl, Brooke is in 3rd year University.

It would be so great just to hear your voice, one more time to hear “tsk, tsk, tsk” And what we wouldn’t give to drive around in that old truck of yours Tell you we’d be back in a couple of days In the rear view mirror, we’d all watch him wave.

Losing him wouldn’t be so hard to take, If heaven wasn’t so far away.

It’s been 5 long years – Until we meet again.

Love Always, Carolyn, Tara, Joel, Courtney and Brooke

Plant sale at Ashton Special to the News

Looking for some plants for your garden?

Well, you should consider visiting the plant sale that is being held this Saturday, May 23 from 9 a.m. to 11 a.m. at Christ Church Ashton in Ashton.

Locally grown and proven perennials will be for sale, along with annuals, tomatoes and other vegetables, all at minimum prices.

‘Camp Awesome’ at Stittsville United Church in August Meditation Special to the News

News - Fun, faith and friendship are some of the things that youngsters will experience if they attend “Camp Awesome” at the Stittsville United Church this summer.

It will run from Monday, Aug. 10 to Friday, Aug. 14 at the church which is on Fernbank Road just west of Stittsville Main Street in Stittsville.

“Camp Awesome” is a Christian day camp for children aged 4 to 12 years, running from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. each day.

Morning and afternoon snacks are provided and the participants bring their own lunches.

At “Camp Awesome,” children learn

about the bible through drama, songs, crafts, games and other fun activities.

Water day is always a highlight of the week with the children and their councillors all getting soaked – a great way to cool off in the summer sun.

Leadership for “Camp Awesome” is provided by a group of trained youth who lead similar camps at about 20 United Churches throughout the Ottawa area in the summer.

The theme for “Camp Awesome” this year will be “The Fruit of the Spirit.” Following this theme, the participating children will learn about how God’s Spirit is at work in them, producing what the Apostle Paul has called the spiritual fruit of love,

joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, gentleness, faithfulness and self-control.

The cost for “Camp Awesome” this summer will be $70 for one child, $125 for two children or $150 for a family of more than two children. These costs will be increasing slightly after the early bird registration deadline of Sunday, May 31. Financial support is available upon request.

For more information or to register children for “Camp Awesome,” please visit the Stittsville United Church website at www. suchurch.com or call the church office at 613-836-8735. Registration is limited, so an early sign up is recommended to ensure participation in this year’s “Camp Awesome.”

Special to the News

A meditation group open to everyone has started up at St. John’s Anglican Church in Richmond, meeting every Wednesday from 7 p.m. to 8 p.m.

This meditation group is open to everyone and no previous experience with meditation is necessary to participate.

For more information, please contact James Harley at 613-296-8131 or via email at jmharley97@ gmail.com.

service is about 14 minutes while the response time for urban areas which are more compact is 6 to 7 minutes. There is also the challenge of water supply for rural fires as there are no hydrants in the rural area.

Another new challenge is the construction materials now used in housing. He said that a house build with these new materials can go up in flames in as little as seven minutes. This not only affects response time but also impacts how firefighters approach a fire in a structure built with such materials.

Recruiting volunteer firefighters is becoming harder and harder, Ottawa Fire Services sector chief Todd Horricks told those at last Saturday’s presentation about volunteer firefighters in Stittsville and the history of firefighting in Stittsville at the Stittsville branch of the Ottawa Public Library.

He said that the demand on volunteers’ time is so high nowadays that it is getting more and more difficult to get people to volunteer that much time for the task.

“So the struggle is there,” he said regarding recruiting volunteer firefighters today.

He said that the focus today is on attracting shift workers who are available to serve as volunteer firefighters.

He noted that in the past, workers at local businesses could be relied upon to be volunteer firefighters and just leave their workplace in the community if a fire call came in.

However, chief Horricks noted that before the opening of Station 46 on Iber Road, Stittsville Station 81 on Stittsville Main Street was responding to almost 700 calls a year. Such a demand means that workers at local businesses cannot be expected to leave their work so often to go fight a fire.

Chief Horricks also said that rural firefighting has some challenges as it takes time to assembly the firefighters and also time to travel to the more remote rural locations. That’s why response time in the rural areas for firefighting

Your surplus harvest can help Food Bank Special to the News

If you have a vegetable garden, you can help out the Richmond Food Bank.

It’s all about any extra produce that you might have coming from your garden at harvest time.

What to do with it?

What about sharing it with the Richmond Food Bank which will then distribute it to Food Bank’s clients.

In this way, the extra produce from your garden will go to help someone who needs it.

For more information about how you can share the extra produce from your garden this year with the Richmond Food Bank and help people in doing so, please call Margaret at 613444-0176.
