EMC news - It all started in Richmond and now has spread to every Mac’s store in the Ottawa area. It is “Coffee for a Cause,� a fundraising initiative tied to the coffee sold at each Mac’s store on a particular day which this year is Tuesday, June 26. And all of the funds raised by the sale of coffee in each of the 43 Mac’s stores in the Ottawa area that day will be going to support Friends of Hospice Ottawa. In addition to the revenue from coffee sales, there will be donation boxes for Friends of Hospice Ottawa set up at each Mac’s store that day. Those who make donations will be eligible to win a gift basket, with one basket being given away at each store. At a number of the Mac’s store that day, Friends of Hospice Ottawa will have a volunteer who will be armed with informational materials about Friends of Hospice Ottawa and the services which it provides for those facing life threatening diseases. The volunteers will also be able to answer any questions posed by those visiting the store with the volunteers to be there from 8 a.m. to 10 a.m., the busiest coffee times at the stores. This “Coffee for a Cause� fundraising for Friends of Hospice Ottawa began in 2010 when the idea was implemented in the Mac’s store in Richmond. Then, last year, the idea spread to a dozen Mac’s stores in the area. Now, this year the program has been extended to all 43 Mac’s stores in the Ottawa area. This is not only a major fundraising opportunity for Friends of Hospice Ottawa but it is also an opportunity for the organization to spread information about the value and benefits of hospice care. Friends of Hospice Ottawa provides a host of services and programs to meet the needs of those facing life threatening illness and their families. These include in-home support, bereavement support, caregiver support, day hospice programs and transportation. The mission of Friends of Hospice Ottawa, which services the western portion of the city of Ottawa, is to provide life-affirming support to individuals with life threatening illnesses and to those who care for them so that they may feel empowered to live as fully as possible in their home with care and dignity. Friends of Hospice Ottawa frequently uses the following statement to describe its services to those facing life threatening illnesses: “While we cannot add days to your life, we can add life to your days.�

Raising funds for Alzheimer’s research Special to the News

EMC news - Eight year old Clara Schyf of Stittsville is an amazing young lady. She learned about the chal-

lenges of Alzheimer’s disease just last Christmas after a conversation with her mother, resolving to learn more about it.

This eventually led to her running a lemonade stand where she also sold baked cupcakes and cookies at a recent garage sale at the Garden Terrace, a long term care facility in Kanata where he mother Christine Schyf works. Clara ended up raising over $109 for “You and Me for Memories Foundation,� a charity that raises funds for Alzheimer’s research. It all began last Christmas when Clara declared to her mother “Isn’t Christmas the best time of year for everyone?� Her mother responded that it was for some but not for others, taking the opportunity to explain to her daughter that for some of the elderly, Christmas is not a good time because they have no one to share it with or for some they can’t even remember it if they do. Christine told her daughter about the sadness of losing your memory and not being able to remember even your loved ones. Clara was moved by her mother’s remarks and told her that she wanted to go in to work with her sometime at the Garden Terrace long term care facility to see for herself. When talk of a garage sale at Garden Terrace came up, Clara told her mother that she wanted to do something to help those who forget and this is where the idea of a lemonade stand was born. So, at the garage sale at Garden Terrace on Aird Place

in Kanata in May, there was Clara Schyf with a lemonade stand at which she was also selling baked cupcakes and cookies. Clara was there for over four hours, sometimes trying to attract people to her stand by standing on a chair and holding a sign over her head. It obviously worked as she ended up raising over $109 which she earmarked for “You and Me for Memories Foundation.� The “You and Me For Memories Foundation� is a non-profit charity in partnership with the University of Ottawa. It raises funds for Alzheimer’s research, with all of the funds raised staying in the Ottawa community, specifically to help Dr. Richard Bergeron, a neuroscientist, in his research efforts. “You and Me For Memories Foundation� is holding a gala fundraiser on Saturday, Sept. 29 this year at the Ottawa Convention Centre. This “An Evening to Remember Gala Dinner and Dance� is the Foundation’s major fundraising effort of the year. Over the past three years, these galas have raised over $165,000 in support of Dr. Bergeron’s research. For tickets or more information about this gala, including sponsorship and donation opportunities, please check out the website www. youandmeformemories.ca The Garden Terrace long term care facility is holding a fundraiser for “You and Me

For Memoriesâ€? this coming Tuesday, June 19 when it will be providing sandwiches, dessert, fruit and drinks in its cafĂŠ for staff, friends and families, all in return for a donation with all proceeds going to “You and Me For Memories.â€? The “You and Me For Memories Foundationâ€? is an Ottawa based group of volunteers, committed to supporting research into all aspects of Alzheimer’s disease. In partnership with the University of Ottawa Faculty of Medicine, the group is helping to raise much needed funds to financially support the research of Dr. Richard Bergeron and his staff at the University of Ottawa. Over half a million Cana-

dians or one in 11 over the age of 65 have Alzheimer’s disease or another form of dementia. This number is predicted to more than double within a generation. The risk for dementia doubles every five years after age 65. Alzheimer’s is not a normal part of aging. It is devastating and fatal but not uqick. It slowly steals memory, cognitive, verbal and physical abilities and ultimately life itself. There is no cure and no prevention, although research suggests that there are ways to lower risk. It is estimated that with enough support, researchers may be able to find a cure or a treatment within five to seven years.

‘Bite into Breakfast’ workshop john.curry@metroland.com

EMC news - She’s the TV host of “Live The Smart Way,� North America’s first gluten free TV cooking show. She’s a best selling author. She’s a recent recipient of the “Eat Well Award� at the 2012 Leadership in Health Awards. And she’s a registered nutritional consultant. That’s Kathy Smart and this Ottawa-based nutritionist, author, chef and TV host is coming to Stittsville. Yes, that’s right, she will be presenting a two hour workshop in Stittsville on Saturday, June 23. And while this “Bite into Breakfast� workshop will focus on adapting to a glutenfree lifestyle, something that is near and dear to Kathy’s heart since she has lived with gluten intolerance since the age of four, it is a workshop that anyone will enjoy and benefit from, particularly those who want to make breakfast a more interesting and healthy experience. She says that the workshop will prove helpful to a variety of people, not only those with gluten intolerance but also those such as vegetarians looking for new breakfast ideas and diabetics looking for recipes which use natural products like honey and maple syrup rather than processed white sugar. In the workshop, Kathy will highlight not only information about adapting to a

gluten-free lifestyle but she will be demonstrating several recipes that will enhance the breakfast experience. Those at the workshop will get to sample first hand a lot of gluten-free breakfast foods, all healthy and all prepared right there before your eyes. You will see how it’s done. And there will be lots of taste testing. Indeed, Kathy advises that those attending to workshop will want to come with an appetite because you will have lots to eat, such as protein pancakes, high protein dark chocolate cupcakes and cranberry muffins. Kathy says that cooking in these more interesting and gluten-free ways is not hard to do but that the challenge lies in using some ingredients with which most people are not familiar, such as coconut oil. At the workshop, she will be demonstrating how to use these different ingredients, passing on her experience and know-how. She will be focusing her cooking demonstration on breakfast because she feels that this is the most important meal of the day but that many lack ideas on how to expand it beyond the typical toast and jam routine. While the workshop is geared to those with a gluten intolerance or allergy, Kathy says that gluten-free eating is a way for anyone to feel better. She says that going with

a gluten-free diet will increase energy, help a person feel better and improve digestive and skin issues. She says that gluten-free cooking and eating has definitely become a very popular way of living these days. This is because it is essentially going back to basics, she says, using fresh fruit and vegetables and gluten-free grains. Kathy, a nutritionist for 16 years who herself suffers from gluten intolerance, saw that there was a lack of gluten-free information in the marketplace and that is why she stepped in to fill the void. This has led to her “Live The Smart Way� show on Rogers TV and her “Live The Smart Way� cookbook which is available at Costco and online at Amazon.ca. She firmly believes that meals for people diagnosed as gluten intolerance or with other food challenges do not have to be miserable and the recipes that she will be demonstrating at the workshop will show this. This “Bite into Breakfast� workshop featuring chef and TV host Kathy Smart will be held on Saturday, June 23 from 9:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. at St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church at the corner of Stittsville Main Street and Mulkins Street in Stittsville. Tickets for the event costing $62 per person are available by calling event organizer Ana Mac-

nutritional consultant with the Canadian Examining Board of Health Care Practitioners, a registered sports nutrition advisor, a holistic teaching chef with the Holistic Cooking Academy of Canada and a registered personal fitness trainer. Her TV show, “Live The Smart Way� on Rogers TV is the world’s first gluten free and vegetarian cooking show.

Kathy Smart Millan at 613-623-2312 or by emailing her at anamacmillan@yahoo.ca The deadline for the sale of tickets is Monday, June 18, so you have to act fairly quickly if you want to attend this “Bite into Breakfast� workshop and health seminar. Celiac disease, the most serious form of problems related to the digestion of gluten, is more common than many think. The Canadian Digestive Health Foundation reports that more than 330,000 Canadians have been diagnosed with celiac disease which is marked by the body’s inability to process gluten, a protein most commonly found in wheat. Besides celiac disease, there are also gluten intolerance and gluten allergies that plague many Canadians. Gluten is a protein that occurs naturally in whole grains and wheat products but a lot

Sea of colour in church’s front yard John Curry john.curry@metroland.com

EMC news - The white stucco of the Stittsville United Church formed the backdrop for a sea of colour in the warm sunshine last Sunday, June 10 as the activities of a family fun day filled the church’s front yard. A giant inflated obstacle course could not be missed, not only because of its size but also because of its colourful appearance – an exterior of red, green, blue and yellow. And it was eye-catching not only for its size and colours but because it attracted lots of youngsters who made their way through its bouncy corridors. The notable collection of shoes at its entry point showed that youngsters wanted to experienced its bare-footed pleasures – and that they did!

There was also a smaller rectangular bounce set up which appealed particularly to the younger youth. There was no shortage of games and activities for youngsters to enjoy at this fun day. Miniature golf on a section of the lawn; a circus hoops game on part of the walkway; face painting; two cutouts in which you could stick your face and become a clown or a happy couple. There was cotton candy, yummy but gummy. And lots of colourful balloons spread around and pennants of different colours lining the church’s front stairs. And while all this activity was going on, many adult parishioners sat in the shade of the giant pine tree which graces the front of the church, enjoying a potluck luncheon. It doesn’t get any better than this.

Two Cappies to Sacred Heart John Curry john.curry@metroland.com

EMC news - A couple of Cappies, the awards which recognize excellence in high school theatre productions, have come to Sacred Heart Catholic High School in Stittsville this year. At last Sunday’s Cappies Gala at the National Arts Centre, Spencer Donnelly, who played the role of Queen of Hearts in the school’s recent Cappies production of “Alice in Wonderland,â€? received the award for best comic actor in a play. Another Cappies award was presented to the makeup crew for “Alice in Wonderland.â€? This crew involved students Jana MacDonald, Trish Young, Rylee Boyce, Amanda LaPaointe, Christina Van Leeuwen, Sasha Newar and Julia Picard. Besides these two Cappies awards received this year, Sacred Heart’s “Alice in Wonderlandâ€? production also received several nominations in various categories. These included Mark Bujaki for best featured actor in a play as he played the roles of both the King of Hearts and Caterpillar; the Alice stage crew of Brad Cotton, Jana MacDonald and Alice Cast for best stage crew; the Alice costume crew of Meia Copeland, Michelle Dingley, Madi Middleton and Sasha Newar for best costumes; the ensemble of Courtney Bell (Dormouse), Kyle Curry (Mad Hatter) and Emily Pilon (March Hare) for best ensemble in a play; and Kyle Curry for his role as the Mad Hatter as best supporting actor in a play. In addition, the whole Sacred Heart production of “Alice in Wonderlandâ€? was among the ďŹ ve plays nominated for the best play award. As one of the nominees for the best play as determined by the student critics involved in the Cappies program, a scene from “Alice in Wonderlandâ€? was performed on stage at the National Arts Centre at last Sunday’s gala. It featured not only the Queen of Hearts but the playing cards, Alice herself, the Mad Hatter and other characters. Each of the plays and musicals nominated as the critics’ favourite presented a scene from the play or musical during the gala. Sacred Heart Catholic High School students who were voting critics for this year’s Cappies awards on the basis of reviewing a minimum of four of the high school productions included Kyle Curry as lead critic, Joel Curry, Jessica Wiemer, Meia Copeland, Taylor Hutchings and Cassie Nagy. This was the seventh annual Cappies gala. The Cappies program, founded in the United States in 1999, came to Ottawa in the fall of 2005 through the sponsorship of the Ottawa Citizen. In its ďŹ rst year, this Canada’s Capital Cappies program had 15 participating schools. In the 2011-2012 school year, 37 schools were involved. All high school drama and musical productions involved in the Cappies program receive a post-production write-up in the Ottawa Citizen featuring comments by some of the student critics who attend. These student critics are essential to the program as it expands the program beyond being a forum simply for the recognition of high school drama and musical productions. It infuses an aspect of literacy, creativity and critical thinking into the process. These student critics attend a number of the high school productions throughout the school year, They write reviews which are then edited with some selected for publication.

Parents struggle with fundraising fatigue Ontario’s education system taps families’ desire to improve children’s learning: People for Education Kristen Calis, Jessica Cunha and Rosie-Ann Grover

P

arents across Ontario are feeling unprecedented pressure to open their wallets for school fundraising as families shell out money for everything from crayons and Kleenex to computers and playground equipment. “Today there’s a bigger burden than ever before,” says Progressive Conservative education critic Lisa MacLeod. “Parents are paying over half a billion bucks out of their own pockets each year for essential learning tools.” Bake sales, car washes and pizza lunches generate tens of millions of dollars in fundraising that is supposed to enrich – not replace – public funding. And “the amount of extra monies that are being raised for school purposes is steadily increasing,” the Ontario Public School Boards’ Association says. “The trend is undeniable.” Parents do “have a role to play in actually augmenting the school budget,” says Annie Kidder, executive director of People for Education, a parent-led advocacy group. But she believes the education system is taking advantage of parents’ willingness and ability to be involved, assuming they will always be there to put in that extra time and money. Many parents agree. School boards know parents will fundraise, says Oshawa dad Steve Rockbrune, who believes parents will work hard to give their kids the best they can provide. “That’s why they put the squeeze on us.” Rockbrune was surprised when his daughter, who attends Harmony Public School, came home at the start of the year with a note requesting donations of Kleenex and glue, basic classroom staples. Parents say drumming up dollars isn’t the most popular task. LOTS OF WORK

“Nobody really ever wants to take on the job of fundraising because it’s a lot of work,” says Catherine Scott, fundraising committee co-chair at Roch Carrier Elementary School in Ottawa. “And yet we need classroom resources; we need new technology; we need to keep our school grounds up; spend money on paint for hopscotch and four square in the play6

ground – and there’s no money in the school budget for those things.” As of March, Ottawa’s Broadview Public School had raised more than $116,000 through an e-waste drop-off, magazine fundraiser, letter drive, movie night, and pizza and sub lunches for a complete yard renewal. The previous school council set aside $30,000 and the school received a number of corporate donations, including three $10,000 contributions. With a goal of $150,000, the school council hopes to purchase two new play structures to replace the current unsafe playground and create an outdoor learning classroom for the school of more than 800 students. Many parents say they are feeling the pinch with schools continually asking for more

“(Fundraising initiatives) are constant and frequent. It puts an unrealistic expectation on parents and family and the community.” GREG WEILER

money. It can seem endless, says Greg Weiler, a father of two at the primary level and local president for the Elementary Teachers’ Federation of Ontario (ETFO) in Waterloo. “I can’t think of a week where there isn’t some fundraising initiative going on. They are constant and frequent,” Weiler says. “It puts an unrealistic expectation on parents and family and the community.” NDP education critic Peter Tabuns believes the government relies on parents to fundraise. “You almost think they quietly approve. This is a way of reducing the pressure on them for proper funding of education. Leave it to the parents. The parents will raise the money and won’t squawk about the fact that their school isn’t getting enough. Life goes on. But it means a lot of children get shortchanged.” The ETFO says school fundraising lets the provincial government “shirk” its responsibility to properly fund schools and puts pressure on everyone in the system.

Nepean-Barrhaven EMC - Thursday, June 14, 2012

“The funds have to come from somewhere,” says Durham ETFO local president Gerard O’Neill. “People have to go out and raise them.” O’Neill says filling this funding gap often comes down to teachers, many of whom end up paying for essential classroom items, such as pencils and paper, out of their own pocket. NEW WAYS

Some manage the entire fundraising procedure, which takes time away from their Number 1 priority – teaching. School councils are constantly finding new ways to raise money. At Terry Fox Public School in Ajax, school community council chair Sandra Fletcher has become familiar but not quite comfortable with soliciting friends and family. “The SCC relies on parents and grandparents and sisters and uncles and cousins,” she says. This has been the case since the school opened its doors 10 years ago. The gym didn’t have a sound system and the library didn’t have enough books. After years of fundraising to add these items, Fletcher said she’s found parents have reached fundraising fatigue. “I actually think there’s a lot of pressure on the parents, and we, in the last four or five years, have tried consciously not to put that pressure on the parents,” she says, adding a dance-a-thon and pizza lunches make up most of the fundraising. The school council of St. Patrick’s Catholic High School in Ottawa doesn’t do any fundraising for the school. Instead, it lets the students decide how to raise funds and how to use the money. “It’s hard to get volunteers, so it would fall on a few people’s shoulders,” says Joanne MacEwan, chair of the school council and co-chair of the Catholic School Parents’ Association. Leaving it up to the students teaches them responsibility and keeps parents from burning out, MacEwan says. But there is a limit, she adds. “Sometimes it can be too much. We caution all our school councils – make sure you go to your community and make sure that you’re getting a feel for how they’re feeling about fundraising.” However, not everyone agrees that the problem is a funding shortfall. Joe Allin,

Jessica Cunha

Jason Scott hefts electronic waste into a dumpster. More schools are turning to fundraisers where parents don’t have to spend any money as a way to combat fundraising fatigue. For an e-waste drop off, schools receive $185 per tonne. chair of the Durham District School Board, believes current government funding is sufficient and that fundraising is a long-standing practice that will take place no matter what. “I’m not convinced it’s associated with need,” Allin says. “That isn’t to say there aren’t needs. I’d say this activity would go on regardless of the level of funding that comes into the schools.” SENSE OF CONNECTION

Fundraising is a way for parents to be active and feel like they’re contributing to their child’s school, says Kidder, of People for Education. “I think it’s a really nice, understandable way to be involved in our kids’ school.” The types of fundraisers being held, the amounts raised and the items bought differ across the province: • In Woodbridge, St. Clare Catholic School, located in a well-to-do neighbourhood, spent funds on school improvements, arts enrichment, security cameras and healthyliving initiatives such as yoga

in recent years, according to a school council letter to the community. “Fundraising is so important to our school,” said the school council. “Through it, our children are able to access many enhanced resources and programs that only serve to enrich their educational experience at school.” • Rosebank Road Public School in Pickering purchased 11 fans for the school at a cost of $497.08 in 2010-11. • At Holy Cross Catholic School in the Dufferin-Peel Catholic board, the council spent $800 on fans for a portable. There’s no cut-and-dried answer to the pitfalls of fundraising. Sheila Perry spent 30 years working in the education sector in a variety of roles, including principal, teacher, educator, consultant and administrator. With a broad perspective on fundraising from within the Ottawa-Carleton District School Board, she says the issue of private dollars funding public education remains a dilemma. “That’s the key, it’s a public system,” says Perry, who

is now retired. “The key is to offer things across the board, an equal opportunity as much as you can. The dilemma becomes when you just can’t or the price is too prohibitive. That’s where you get into the fundraising.” Muddying the issue further is determining the must-have items. For example, the Ministry of Education doesn’t consider technology an essential item for schools. In fact, it slashed the budget for that line item by $25 million for the 2011-12 school year. In turn, the Ministry’s guidelines deem it acceptable for schools to acquire technology with fundraised dollars. But some in the education sector believe technology is indeed a necessity. “We can’t go to our parent councils or school councils and keep asking for money for what could arguably be described as a 21st-century learning tool in public education,” says Catherine Fife, president of Ontario Public School Boards’ Association. “So let’s find creative ways to address that funding shortfall and not go to fundraising.”

Junkyard Symphony at Rhythm Raise fundraiser john.curry@metroland.com

EMC news - Juggling balls, blocks, mini-plungers and empty water fountain bottles. Balancing a ball on top of a long cylindrical pole and catching the ball in a cup on the forehead as it falls from its perch. Furious drumming with associate Boom Boom Bryan (a.k.a. Bryan Valoriani). Encouraging rhythmic clapping and thigh-pounding. And inviting youngsters and another up on stage to dance. All this and more happened at the Junkyard Symphony performance at the Rhythm Raise fundraiser for the new Lotus Centre for Special Music Education which was held at the Community Bible Church in Stittsville last Saturday evening, June 9, all orchestrated

by Junkyard Jonny (a.k.a. Jonny Olsen) himself. It was four year old Bennett Parkes who had the most ongoing role on stage, other than that of Jonny himself, as he was tasked to hold up a container with the word “Cheerâ€? on it whenever instructed to do so by Jonny. And this would happen after Jonny balanced a ball hat on his nose or juggled three giant water bottles or otherwise performed a feat for the audience. Jonny called on youngsters from the audience to perform with him on stage, mainly by dancing in wild and crazy ways. These youngsters included ďŹ ve year old Yamato Montcalm and six year old Aidan Parkes. And to round things out, Jonny also called on adult

Matt Hyde who demonstrated some moves as he was adorned with dark sunglasses and some body jewellery. All in all, the crowd loved it and he was a great sport about it all. This 40 minute show by the Junkyard Symphony was a highlight of the Rhythm Raise fundraiser which also featured a silent auction with a variety of items up for bids including a Saunders Farm family pass, CD’s, restaurant dinners, paintings by Ian Ahaned, a skateboard, ballet lessons and landscaping. There was face painting for youngsters at the event and popcorn was a popular item at the refreshment booth. All of the funds raised at this ďŹ rst annual Rhythm Raise fundraiser are going to help

City should ban bags to ease trash troubles

O

nly in Toronto you say? Pity. Toronto’s city council set the mayor’s blood to boil last week by voting for a ban on plastic bags. Toronto is by no means the first North American city to say no to plastic bags – Fort McMurray, Alta., San Francisco, Seattle and Los Angeles have all banned plastic bags. The City of Ottawa should consider adding its name to

the list of cities attempting to deal responsibly with their municipal waste. Toronto’s bag ban started out as a debate over an unpopular five-cent fee for every plastic bag charged by retailers. Sound familiar? Mayor Rob Ford managed to convince council to scrap the fee, but was flummoxed, when Coun. David Shiner – a member of the Ford inner circle – proposed an outright ban on plastic bags.

Shiner later said the idea for the bag ban came to him mid-debate, but nevertheless his colleagues on council lined up behind the idea. One of the largest issues on Ottawa council’s plate over the past decade has been what to do about the city’s landfill problem. Councillor after councillor and mayor after mayor tells us the city wants to move to more sustainable forms of managing municipal waste, but then we’re reminded

about the need to find somewhere to store our garbage. If we want to move away from landfills, we have to reduce our environmental footprint and getting rid of non-biodegradable products like plastic bags is a good first step. When it’s tossed into a landfill, plastic bags have the staying power of an Energizer bunny. If we don’t use them, there’s no need to manufacture them and ultimately,

scrap them. If we’re serious about moving away from landfills, wouldn’t eliminating the tons of plastic that end up in our city dumps be a great first, second and third step? The cost? Shoppers will have to bag their groceries in paper (it’s been done before), cardboard boxes and using Green boxes and cloth bags. We’re already being charged a nickel a bag by many retailers for every

plastic bag we use, so maybe we spend that money more wisely on a paper bag instead. Or dare we suggest ‌ keep the nickels in our pockets and carry our groceries home in reuseable bags and boxes? Ottawa council should at least take a look at the idea – not shy away from it over fear of a potential public backlash. Hopefully, after sober discussion and debate, council will decide that saving our environment – and millions in taxes pumped into waste management – is definitely “their bag.â€?

More sleep, less duty free CHARLES GORDON Funny Town

T

he idea of abolishing duty-free shopping came, as great ideas often do, during sleep. Well, not exactly during sleep. It was at the moment of being awakened from sleep. Precisely, it was during the captain’s booming announcement that woke up certain people who were trying desperately to grab 40 winks while sitting upright in cramped conditions on an international flight. Just when success seemed to be attained and restful dreams arrived, a loud and authoritative voice jolted certain people with the news that attendants would be coming through the cabin offering duty-free bargains. Thanks a lot, captain. And then suddenly came the memory of another international flight when attendants were walking through the cabin hawking their cheap cigarettes, eau de toilette and champagne at 3 a.m., local time, somehow oblivious to the fact that some of the passengers who emplaned at midnight, local time, might need some shut-eye. There is, clearly, something about passengers sleeping that triggers the duty-free mechanism. Understandably, this would get one to thinking, perhaps somewhat emotionally, about the concept of duty-free shopping. Why do we have it anyway? What purpose does it serve? And would abolishing it do any real harm? Duty-free shops were obviously started to give people something to do at airports other than looking for a place to sit that isn’t occupied by that guy over there who has luggage spread over three seats. It’s a long time ago that it started, but some-

body obviously thought that having a place to shop duty-free would give people an incentive to spend money at the airport. Later, it may have been thought that the presence of a dutyfree shop might give people a reason to choose one airport over another. Perhaps it did not occur to anyone that people don’t really choose airports. The main incentive to visit, say, Ottawa airport is that the plane goes from there. Then duty-free stores spread to passenger ships, parts of the world that were not airports, and onto the plane itself, with the unfortunate consequences that we have seen. Whether it is intended or not, the duty-free shop, particularly the one in the airport and the one on the plane, gives preferential treatment to travellers as opposed to those who stay at home. Many things are wrong with this. On the environmental side, those who stay home are doing more for the planet than those who get onto airplanes or drive cars to the nearest border. And what do those non-travellers get for their services to the environment? They get to pay taxes when they buy cognac, perfume and four-foot-long Toblerone bars. That’s another issue: the reverse income redistribution effect, as those of us who haven’t studied economics like to call it. Citizens who can partake of foreign travel are generally wealthier than citizens who cannot. Yet it is they who get to avoid the duty. Of course, they are not the only wealthy people in the world who get tax breaks, but that doesn’t make it right that they can get a deal on a bottle of Clicquot Ponsardin or get a free signature hockey puck with their purchase of Wayne Gretzky Icewine while we mortals are paying HST on a Diet Pepsi and some Cheez Doodles. Another point: Our governments at all levels are struggling with budget deficits. Yet here’s a source of revenue that is cut off from them. Imagine how quickly budgets would be balanced if everybody who bought cognac, tan maximizer and syrup in a jar shaped like a maple leaf had to pay tax on it. It’s all good and that doesn’t even count the part about people sleeping better on airplanes.

Monsignor Joseph Muldoon appointed as pastor at Holy Spirit as of Aug. 1st Special to the News

EMC news - Holy Spirit Catholic Parish in Stittsville is getting a new pastor. Monsignor Joseph Muldoon has been appointed as the pastor as of Aug. 1 this year. He takes over from current pastor Rev. Ross Finlan who is retiring. He has been pastor at Holy Spirit for three years. A celebration to mark Rev. Finlan’s retirement as well as that of longtime Holy Spirit Parish deacon Nuno Da Nova is being held at the church on Sunday, June 24 starting at 11:30 a.m. Holy Spirit’s new pastor just recently received the Papal title “Chaplain to His Holiness,” an honour which

allows the use of the title of “Monsignor.” This honour was conferred to Msgr. Muldoon at the June 7th celebration of the Diocesan Feast of the Archdiocese of Ottawa at Notre Dame Cathedral. Msgr. Muldoon, who was born in Dunrobin and grew up in Almonte, attended St. Pius X High School in Ottawa and then graduated from St. Patrick’s College, Carleton University and Saint Paul University. He was ordained to the priesthood in 1976 and has served as assistant pastor and pastor at several parishes in the Archdiocese of Ottawa. He has also served as Regional Vicar and in 2007 was appointed Episcopal Vicar and

Coordinator of Pastoral Services for the English Sector of the Archdiocese. He also serves the Archdiocese as Procurator and Advocate of the Ottawa Ecclesiastical Tribunal and as Episcopal Vicar for the Religious Communities for the English Sector. He has also served as chaplain for various Councils of the Knights of Columbus and as diocesan representative to the Charismatic Movement for the English Sector. Msgr. Muldoon will be the fourth pastor of Holy Spirit Parish since its establishment as a parish. He follows Rev. Frank Scott, Rev. Stephen Amesse and current pastor Rev. Ross Finlan.

24,000 books, $13,000 Special to the News

EMC news - About 24,000 books. Add in a raffle and BBQ. And the result is raising about $13,000 for the School Council at A. Lorne Cassidy Elementary School in Stittsville will use to support various programs and purchase equipment for A.L.C. students. But, believe it, there is nothing easy about the event. It succeeds because of generous donors, supportive families and residents and lots of hard work organizing the event by both student and parents. Hundreds attended the

event to enjoy the BBQ, take their chances in the raffle and purchase previously loved books at some fantastic prices. Yes, this 20th annual Book Fair, Raffle and Barbecue on Friday, May 25 and Saturday, May 26 at A. Lorne Cassidy Elementary School was a great success. Even the weather cooperated, with a possible thunderstorm avoiding the area, letting the outdoor BBQ flourish. Mitch Anderson and Rob Walsh representing Brown’s Your Independent Grocer took care of the cooking. City of Ottawa Stittsville

ward councillor Shad Qadri, always a great support of the event, was on hand again this year serving up sno-cones and cotton candy, producing many happy smiles on children’s faces as well as lots of sticky fingers. One lucky person was the winner in a special BBQ draw, with the prize being a brand new bike donated by Todd Brown of Brown’s YIG. The raffle portion of the event is a success only because of the many donations from the community and the fervent support of raffle ticket buyers.

OC Transpo cuts hydro costs with lighting retrofit

Your Community Newspaper

Bryce Conrad, Hydro Ottawa’s President and CEO, presents a cheque to Jim Greer of OC Transpo, Mayor Jim Watson and Councillor Diane Deans.

With the help of the Hydro Ottawa Group of Companies, OC Transpo has cut its lighting costs by 43 percent at its St. Laurent garage. Energy Ottawa performed an energy audit and implemented turnkey solutions to improve energy efficiency at the bus garage. Energy Ottawa, a subsidiary of Hydro Ottawa Holding Inc., is the City’s preferred energy management partner. The project included replacing inefficient light fixtures and installing sensors that can turn off some lighting when the garage is not occupied. With a return on investment of about three years, this lighting retrofit is expected to cut energy costs by more than $137,000 each year. The new energy-efficient lamps also last more than 75 percent longer – reducing maintenance costs. “I am very pleased to present to OC Transpo more than $95,000 in incentives through the saveONenergy Retrofit program. The program is designed to help businesses manage energy consumption and keep electricity costs lower,” said Bryce Conrad, President and CEO of Hydro Ottawa Holding Inc. “It is great to be able to accept this cheque on behalf of the City of Ottawa and OC Transpo and to thank Hydro Ottawa at the same time,” said Mayor Jim Watson. “It shows what can be accomplished with teamwork as together we improve our environment and save energy and money while providing transit services to our residents.”

EMC news - If your vehicle is your “pet,” then the new Oil Changers in Stittsville is for you, for both quick oil changes and car washes. Your car will never have it so good. And if your “pet” is the real thing, a cuddily dog for instance, then Oil Changers in Stittsville is still a destination for you, because this new facility, with its four bays for oil changes and four bays for self-serve car washes, also features a “pet wash.” Yes, that’s right, a pet wash. So your pet, your real live one, can be just as clean and sparkling as any “pet” vehicle. The pet wash is located in a separate room adjacent to one of the car wash bays where there is an elevated steel platform where your pet can be as you do the spraying and washing. There’s even a ramp for the pet to use to get to this washing area. And this can all be accessed just like the self-serve car wash bays – via a swipe of a credit car or with coinage. Now that’s convenience. Oil Changers president Thomas Marin included a pet wash in this brand new facility on Carp Road just south of Hazeldean Road after learning about the popularity of such a feature from attendance at car wash conventions and from those in the industry. Apparently a pet wash at a facility can generate more revenue than a car wash bay. In any case, a pet wash is part of this new Stittsville facility and it will be up and running, along with the rest of the car wash bays, within days. There has been some delay in getting the car wash portion of the business up and running due to obtaining all the necessary approvals but the approvals have now all

been received and as soon as the remaining plumbing work is completed, the car wash bays and, yes, the pet wash will be operational. Oil Changers, which is owned by the Marin family of Ottawa, now has 26 locations in Ontario with the opening of this new Stittsville facility on Carp Road. It is only the second location with self-serve car wash bays but Mr. Marin says that this will be the company’s model for future locations if the site has the size. Mr. Marin, at the facility’s grand opening last Saturday, also speculated that one of the four self-serve car wash bays at this Stittsville location

may in the future be transformed into an auto detailing bay where customers could receive quick and simple interior vehicle cleaning and the like. Although the facility has been open since early April, it was last Saturday when the grand opening was held. And what an event it was! Graced by sunny, warm weather, the afternoon saw a steady stream of parents and youngsters form a lineup stretching almost across the spacious paved rear lot at Oil Changers as they excitedly waited to get an autograph and have a photo taken with Ottawa Senators players Chris

Neil and Matt Carkner. The duo was set up at a table under a tent as they greeted each and every fan, signing their autographs on jerseys, hats and anything else offered by each fan, handing out autographed player cards, exchanging a high five or two, and, then, as a highlight of the day for many, having their photos taken with the fan or fans. And they could do this with both Chris and Matt – a doubleheader of excitement for any Sens fan. But there was more going on than this autograph/photograph session with Chris Neil and Matt Carkner.

Oil Changers is 26th location in Ontario From EVEN, page 14

There was a BBQ tent set up staffed by parents and volunteers associated with the Capital City Condors, a hockey organization established in 2008 for boys and girls six years old and up with intellectual and/or physical disabilities who are unable to play on a regular minor hockey team. The Condors program provides an opportunity for these youngsters to enjoy the hockey experience. Both Chris Neil and Matt Carkner are strong supporters of the Condors program and have worked with the Condors players in the past. M&M Meat Shops in Kanata and Brown’s Your Independent Grocer in Stittsville both supplied the food for the Condors BBQ tent at the event. The grand opening also featured a face painting tent and an inflated slide for youngsters. Under the face painting tent, youngsters could not only come away with a different, colourful face but could also receive a tattoo featuring none other than “Slick,” the Oil Changers playful mascot. On top of all of this, there was a raffle draw for everyone to enter with some great prizes and radio station Hot 89.9 was on location with a remote broadcast all afternoon long. And while all of this grand opening activity was going on, customers kept rolling in, keeping the service bays busy. There was, of course, an incentive for these customers – each customer got $10 off any oil and filter change done that day. And if this were not enough, Oil Changers is donating $10 from each car serviced on this grand opening day in Stittsville to the Capital City Condors hockey program. But supporting charitable initiatives is nothing new for Oil Changers. It has been a presenting sponsor of the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society’s Light the Night Walk in Ottawa and Toronto, events that raised $1.2 million last year, including an

$80,000 donation from Oil Changers for blood cancer research. This year Oil Changers is a key sponsor of the Alterna Ultimate Run for Men’s Cancers. While Oil Changers is committed to giving back to the communities that it serves through support of charitable causes, it is also an environmentally aware company. This was highlighted by a presentation made to Oil Changers at the grand opening last Saturday which saw Safety-Kleen, a national firm which re-refines used oil products, honour Oil Changers with a framed certificate outlining how Oil Changers, through its involvement with Safety-Kleen’s closed loop recycling program for used oil, had avoided 3,166 metric tones of greenhouse gas emissions in the year 2011 alone. This is equivalent to 7,324 barrels of oil being consumed. Oil Changers directs all of its spent oil, oil filters and plastic oil containers to SafetyKleen which is a licensed used oil collector and re-refiner. This is a time of growth and expansion for Oil Changers. It recently expanded into the communities of St. Catharines, Brantford and Brockville and has added second locations in both Kitchener and Brampton. This newest location in Stittsville is Oil Changers’ sixth location in the Ottawa area and 26th across the province. Jon Marin, who is also Oil Changers’ vicepresident, is the franchise owner of this new Stittsville location. Services offered at the Stittsville facility, which is at 1189 Carp Road, include oil and filter changes, accredited emission testing, air filters, windshield wipers, headlights and tail lights. And don’t forget the self-serve car washes and the pet wash. No appointments are necessary for any of these services. Oil Changers in Stittsville (phone 613-8362229) is open Monday to Friday 8 a.m. to 8 p.m.; Saturday 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Sunday 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.

Silver for Warriors at Ice Breaker Special to the News

EMC sports - Shutouts in six of eight tournament games. Giving up only three regulation time goals in these eight games. Capturing silver medals in the recent 18th annual Ice Breaker Soccer Tournament. How awesome is that! And if you need more evidence that the West Ottawa Soccer Warriors U-13 L4 girls’ team is a group that plays as a team, imagine this: in one game in this tournament, the team managed to execute a passing string of 14 passes.

Now that’s team play at its best. Indeed, coach Joe Murphy has applauded the girls for their efforts in the tournament, noting their commitment and dedication to playing a possession style game. When you can pull off 14 passes in a row, you are controlling the ball. The West Ottawa Soccer Warriors U-13 L4 girls’ team entered the Ice Breaker Soccer Tournament in late May, hosted by the Ottawa Internationals Soccer Club, fresh off a win in

the team’s season opener. Amassing a record of six wins and only two losses in the tournament, the Warriors shut out their opponents in regulation time in six of these games. In day one of the tournament, the Warriors scored three wins while sustaining one loss in a penalty shoot-out, meaning that the team finished second in its pool. On day two of the tournament, the Warriors chalked up three more wins before losing in the gold medal final to the Richmond Hill Raiders. In this championship game, the Warriors gave up an early goal and then fought back to try to get the equalizer. As the Warriors pushed hard near the end to tie the game up, Richmond Hill scored a last minute goal to take the gold

medals with a 2-0 win. The silver medals were awarded to the Warriors. The Warriors’ strikers, namely Barbora Fabusova, Michelle Furrie, Rachel Provan and Amanda Zhu-Pawlowsky, provided lots of fire power in this tournament with a total of eight goals and lots of other hard fought scoring opportunities. In the mid-field, the contingent of Amy Graham, Holly Herasimenko, Natasha Lutter, Julia MacAngus, Sasha Thomson and Caitlin Tang provided both defensive and offensive support, combining for six goals. The Warriors’ defensive line of Rachel Bouwer, Georgia Cunningham, Nicole Murphy, Archana Raguparan, Maya Seth and keeper Amelia Schultz was dominant with six regulation time shutouts. The team gave up only three regulation time goals in eight tournament games.

200 horses, riders at Westar Farms Special to the News

EMC news - A touch of the Olympics will be found along the Fernbank Road west of Stittsville this coming weekend. That’s because a bit of Olympic flavour, in celebration of the upcoming Olympics in London, will be infused in the horse shows which are taking place at Westar Farms on both Saturday, June 16 and Sunday, June 17. More than 200 horses and riders are expected to be competing in a variety of performance classes at these shows. Some of these classes, namely the hunter classes, will be judged on style while in other classes, speed and agility and clearing the jumps with no knock downs will lead to victory. These are the jumper classes. Four show rings will be in operation each day, with action starting at 8 a.m. and running through until 3 p.m. or 4 p.m. each day. There is no admission charge and spectators are most welcome. Refreshments will be available on site. However, spectators are advised to

bring along a lawn chair for comfortable viewing, although there are bleachers on site as well. There is always a shady place or two under the maple trees that grace the site. Two horse shows will be running simultaneously at this “Spring Into Summer Silver & Bronze Show� this coming weekend. One is a Bronze level show, part of the Ottawa Valley Primary Circuit. The other show is a Silver level one, part of the Eastern Ontario Trillium Circuit. Ribbons will be awarded to the top finishers in each class, with special awards to the Champion and Reserve Champion in each division. Prize money will also be awarded in the Silver level classes.The riders participating in these shows this coming weekend have prepared and trained all winter long to get ready for the show circuit. Most ride at least a few times a week during the winter and some as much as six days a week. Many start their competitive careers at the Bronze level and work their way up through the ranks, some as high as

the Gold circuit which is the national circuit in Canada where the top riders, those that go to the Olympics, compete. This is the 24th year that Westar Farms is hosting equestrian competitions. Besides this coming weekend’s shows, Westar Farms will be hosting “Horse Lovers’ Weekend� on Saturday, July 21 and Sunday, July 22 as well as the “Jump Into Fall� show on Saturday, Sept. 15. Westar Farms continues to make upgrades to its show venue to keep it as one of the best horse show facilities in the Ottawa area. Westar Farms also runs a recreational lesson program for riders as young as eight years old. Some of these riders eventually move to the competitive program while others continue to ride purely for enjoyment. Westar Farms is located at 8132 Fernbank Road just east of Dwyer Hill Road. For directions or more information about the upcoming horse shows or about Westar Farms’ equestrian programs in general, please go to www.westarfarms.ca

EMC sports - Sports plays a big part in high school life. At South Carleton High School in Richmond, students compete in a wide variety of sports throughout the school year, ranging from alpine skiing to rugby to lacrosse to basketball to soccer to swimming to track and field to wrestling. A highlight of all this sports activity is the school’s annual athletic banquet where student athletes are honoured for their athletic achievements.

EMC news - The South Carleton Storm are kings of the diamond. The Storm defeated Woodroffe High School 5-3 to capture the National Capital Secondary Schools Athletic Association championship title on Tuesday, June 5. The Storm had lost 8-4 to Woodroffe High School in the team’s opening game of the season back on Wednesday, May 2, so this victory in the championship game against the Woodroffe squad was doubly satisfying. The Storm had advanced to the varsity baseball tier 2 final by defeating Cairine Wilson Secondary School in a slugfest in a semi-final game,

winning by a 14-12 score. South Carleton beat St. Mark High School 5-3 in quarterfinal playoff action, a victory which came on the heels of an 11-1 win over A.Y.

The South Carleton High School Storm had a record of three wins and one loss in regular season play in the Far West Division of the high school tier 2 baseball league. After losing their opening game of the season 8-4 to Woodroffe High School, the Storm rattled off three straight regular season wins – 6-4 over Sacred Heart High School, 17-0 over A.Y.

Grand opening is happening for new Complete Hockey Development Centre John Curry john.curry@metroland.com

EMC sports - Billed as a one-of-a-kind hockey training centre, the new Complete Hockey Development Centre (CHDC) in Stittsville is holding a grand opening this coming Saturday, June 16 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. This is when everyone is invited to stop by and tour the facility at 145 Iber Road in Stittsville. “We have all the best sports facilities under one roof,� says CHDC owner Charles McTavish who also owns Complete Goalie Development (CGD), a goalie instruction business. The facility offers not only on-ice instruction for both players and goalies but there is lots more. Complete Athletics provides conditioning and strength training for individuals using personal training. West Physio physiotherapy is

also on site, offering physiotherapy and massage therapy, acupuncture and supporting specialties such as dry needling, Stott pilates and custom orthotics. Dynamic Edge is also at CHDC, providing sports vision training for athletes looking to gain a competitive edge by increasing eye-hand coordination, visual reaction time and focus. And Play It Again Sports has designed a pro shop speciďŹ cally for goalies, specializing in ordering custom equipment on site. This new facility is the dream of Charles McTavish. He designed and opened it after ďŹ nding it difďŹ cult to get ice time for his goalie instruction business. Recognizing a missing niche in the hockey market, he created this unique training facility on Iber Road. Indeed, it may be the ďŹ rst of its kind to be developed anywhere as it combines on-ice, dry land, therapy and recovery

VEHICLE SAFETY- ALL VALUABLES REMOVED PROGRAM

RTH GOWER O N

Lately, my office has received some notices about vehicle break-ins in the Stittsville and surrounding area. The local police force is aware of these break-ins and will attempt to monitor and prevent further incidents as best they can. Thefts from vehicles are particularly high from June to October, and a good way to reduce these thefts is by lowering opportunities for criminals. With the “All Valuables Removed� initiative, residents are instructed to remove their valuables from their vehicle, or secure them out of sight, and place a warning card in their window, letting would-be-thieves know not to bother searching their car, and also reminding others to take the same precautions. For more tips, and to find out how you can obtain a warning card for your vehicle, please visit ottawapolice.ca.

Field lacrosse title goes to South Carleton Storm John Curry john.curry@metroland.com

EMC news - The South Carleton High School Storm are the National Capital field lacrosse champions this year. The Storm went undefeated in placing first in the six-team AAA/AAAA Division of the high school league, chalking up five straight wins while scoring 52 goals and allowing only 15. In semi-final playoff action, the Storm defeated St. Joseph Catholic High School 11-1 to advance to the championship final on Thursday, May 24 where the SC Storm ran past the St. Pius X High School XMen 12-2 to clinch the championship and earn a trip to the provincial high school AAA/ AAAA Lacrosse Festival in Brampton on Thursday, June 7 and Friday, June 8. At this provincial championship, the SC Storm finished ninth out of 16 teams, winning two games and losing two games. The Storm defeated Lorne Park 13-6 and got by Father Leo Austin by a 9-6 score. The Storm lost 5-4 to Corpus Christi and 13-2 to St. Michael’s College. SCHS Storm coach Kirk Kealey pointed out that the core of this year’s Storm team has been together for the four years that field lacrosse has been part of South Carleton’s varsity sports program. He said that most of the SC players have played minor lacrosse

with the Nepean Knights while others have played field lacrosse as well. This gave the Storm an advantage on many other teams who had less experienced players as the Storm could focus on game strategies rather than learning the basics of the game. All ten of the Storm’s starting players boasted lacrosse experience, sporting the stick skills and playing strategies that come from such experience. Coach Kealey said that the Storm this season had a lot of offensive power. Thanks to playing with each other in the past, the players knew the tendencies of their teammates, allowing them to find an open player when on offense. He notes that his older, more experienced players have also been able to help the younger, less experienced players, serving almost like assistant coaches. This has helped the team and its players develop. “It’s been a great year for South Carleton,” coach Kealey says about the program, noting the team’s undefeated season. Besides its league and playoff games, the team played three exhibition games this season, losing only one. He says that this year’s team was like night and day with the initial SC team four years ago. While the team is losing some of its experienced lead-

ers to graduation this season, coach Kealey thinks that next year’s team, while smaller in stature, will still have an advanced skill level. One advantage of having such a strong team this season is that the team had a lot of big leads. This meant that coach Kealey had lots of opportunities to play his younger, less experienced players, setting the team up well for next season

when the team will be relying on these players. Field lacrosse is a full contact outdoor sport played with ten players on each team. It is one of three versions of lacrosse, with the others being women’s lacrosse and box lacrosse. The object of field lacrosse is to use a long handled racket, known as a lacrosse stick, to catch, carry and pass a solid

rubber ball in an effort to score by ultimately hurling the ball into an opponent’s goal. Players wear a certain amount of protective equipment. Defensively the object is to keep the opposing team from scoring and to dispossess the team of the ball through the use of stick checking and body contact. Rules limit the number of players in each part of the field and require the

ball to be moved continuously towards the opposing goal. Box lacrosse, which is seen played in local arenas after the ice is gone, is an indoor version of lacrosse. It is played between two teams of six players each, with the playing area, which is the ice pad of a hockey rink, called a box in contrast to the open playing field of field lacrosse.

Three key SCHS lacrosse players John Curry john.curry@metroland.com

EMC sports – J.P. Kealey, Noel Hoselton and Erik Crowther have a lot in common. All three are 18 years old. All three are graduating from South Carleton High School in Richmond this month. And all three were key players for this year’s South Carleton Storm field lacrosse team which won the National Capital AAA/ AAAA championship and went on to play in the provincial high school championship. For J.P. Kealey, who has been playing

lacrosse since he was four years old, this is not the end of his lacrosse career as he is off to Robert Morris University in Pittsburgh in the fall where he will play field hockey for the school’s NCAA Division 1 team. J.P. says that while he likes the skill part of the game of lacrosse, he also likes the physical and speed aspects of the game as well. He describes this year’s SC Storm field lacrosse team as a really good team which had lost only one player from the year before when it lost in the playoff finals and

then played in the provincial championships which were hosted in Ottawa. Noel Hoselton, who has played with J.P. for four years now at South Carleton as well as playing with him and Eric on a community field lacrosse team, has been playing lacrosse for six years. It has been a sport that has taken him to the world championships as he played for Slovakia, his mother’s home country, when they were played in Manchester, England two years ago. See TRIO, page 27

Kealey of the South Carleton High School Storm field John Curry photo lacrosse team will be attending Robert Morris University in Pittsburgh in the fall where he will be playing with the Erik Crowther has played for the South Carleton High School Storm field lacrosse team for four years. school’s NCAA Division 1 field lacrosse team.

Trio has played together for four years From THREE, page 26

He was the youngest player ever to play in these field lacrosse world championships and even scored a goal. He will be playing for the Slovakian men’s team again this year when it plays in the European championships in Amsterdam. Noel likes field lacrosse for its speed, its physical aspect and the skill and talent required to play the sport. Indeed, he feels that it is unlike any other sport in that everyone involved supports each other. This applies not only to teammates but opponents as well, something that he saw in person at the world championships when he witnessed the camaraderie which existed among all of the players from all teams.

Sizing up this year’s SC Storm team, Noel points to its quality defense, its dominating midfield and an offensive attack that can get the job done when required. Noel, who plays both box and field lacrosse, says that he prefers field lacrosse. “I like the open space,” he says, adding that he is always striving to improve his play and is still learning about the sport. He says that the sport is relatively new in Slovakia and if the team finishes in the middle of the pack at this year’s European championships, then the team will have done well He is going to try to continue playing for Slovakia for a number of years. He adds that he would like to play for Canada but readily admits that he will probably never be good enough for such

a role. Erik Crowther, who has played for South Carleton for the past four years, along with Noel and J.P., has been playing lacrosse for eight years. He started in Kemptville and then moved to the Nepean Knights where he now plays for the Junior B travelling team. Erik hopes to continue playing lacrosse as long as he can and hopefully at the university level. He likes lacrosse because he finds it is not like any other sport as it allows a player to be creative. “I really like that part,” he says about this creative opportunity. He attributes the success of this year’s SC Storm team to the fact that the team had a lot of depth thanks to a number of older, experienced players.

It is now housed in a building that has quite a commercial tradition, having served in past times as a post office, shoemaker’s shop, tailor’s shop and undertaker’s business.

Lise says that an artist has to challenge herself or himself all the time since an artist always want to improve. She continues to take weekly classes where she is constantly painting.

By: Your Local Family Physiotherapy Team Are the first steps you take in the morning the most painful? Do you experience heel pain that travels into your arches the longer you stand? Is arch discomfort keeping you from that half marathon that you so badly want to complete? If so, you may be experiencing a painful condition called Plantar Fasciitis (PF). Plantar fascia is a thin band of connective tissue that runs from your heel bone towards the base of your toes. Plantar Fasciitis, (‘itis’ meaning inflammation) is a repetitive strain injury causing irritation of that band. Sudden overuse is one of the most common causes of PF.

After exercise, your muscles and tissues micro-tear and then begin to heal themselves – That is how they become stronger. Sudden increases in activity without appropriate rest prevents your body from properly healing. Other causes include: worn out footwear, flat feet or high arches, and tightness or weakness of your calf and foot muscles.

process by 1) Providing you with a home exercise program to help relieve the pain 2) Therapeutic Ultrasound, Laser, and Interferential Current 3) Hands on Manual Therapy 4) Custom Orthotics to correct any imbalances in the feet. Addressing the cause and receiving appropriate treatment will help you get rid of that annoying pain in the arch!

PF most often responds well to treatment, especially if it begins soon after the pain starts. Conservative treatment includes rest, ice, activity modification, wearing supportive shoes, and proper stretching. Visiting your local family physiotherapist can help speed up the recovery

Country Fun Nature Camp is a non-denominational Christian eco-camp that focuses on nurturing children’s love for God, self, others, and the environment. A typical day at County Fun includes arts and crafts in our Craft Barn, outdoor games, a daily swim in our in-ground pool, nature walks, interactive Bible studies, and snack time. Wherever possible, all activities are tied to themes of nature and environmental education.

Looking for a unique summer day camp experience for your children this year? Country Fun Nature Camp is an environmental day camp program run at the Tucker House Renewal Centre, a beautiful historic retreat just east of Ottawa. Camp activities take place in a natural setting of old-growth forest, wetlands, fields, a limestone quarry, and organic gardens.

This year, our camp days are

July 9-13 and July 16-20, with a registration fee of $170 per week per child.

Bus transportation is included, with 3 pick-up locations across Ottawa. For more information, or to register online, visit tuckerhouse.ca, email us at

countryfun@tuckerhouse.ca, or call us at 613-446-2117 x 6.

JUNE 17 SCOTIABANK PLACE 8 A.M. TO 12 P.M.

MEET ROGER’S DREAM TEAM The Roger’s Dream Team roster consists of a group of Roger’s House children who will be spearheading the charge to encourage families, individuals, companies and organizations to participate in the annual fundraising event. To support one of these children or for event details, please visit www.sensfoundation.com or call 613-599-0323.

Alex Ferguson Alex keeps everyone loose in the dressing room. His amazing sense of humour helps when the team gets nervous before a big game.

t. Join us at this year’s even Amanda Caceres At seven years old, Amanda is one of our seasoned veterans and brings experience to the young squad. She visits Roger’s House about every two months, especially in the spring and summer. Because she requires 24/7 care due to multiple medical issues, these respite stays provide both her and her parents some much needed rest.

Eliane Bissonnette Eliane is one of the high flyers on the team, always on the the move! At only 15 months, Eliane can be spotted scooting around on her zebra buggy or her jumperoo. She’s definitely going to be a fan favourite with our Francophone supporters as she primarily speaks French at home.

Three years ago, Alex was diagnosed with a neurological degenerative disorder that saw him go from playing soccer to being in a wheelchair. Yet this has not broken his amazing spirit.

Connor Haynes A proud member of the Dream Team, Connor brings a lot of enthusiasm to his role on the squad. A huge Senators fan, he loves when the Senators are on TV. As well as watching hockey, he also enjoys the Snoezelen Room at Roger’s House which provides many forms of sensory stimulation as a means of therapy.

Willyam Berube Willyam is one of the most spirited members of this year’s Dream Team squad. He loves to go into the corners, particularly for hugs with his loving parents and the staff and volunteers at Roger’s House.

Jaxon Elliott-Sprysa Jaxon is a big sports and movie fan. When he’s not working out with the Dream Team, he’s usually playing Wii sports like baseball and bowling, or chilling with a good Disney movie. At 8½, Jaxon has proven that he’s a fighter. He was born premature and before he was 4, he’d spent over a year in hospital.

Jordyn Deveau-Yurich Jordyn’s positive attitude makes her a hugely valuable member of this year’s squad. She loves a challenge. Now nine, she has been getting around in her power chair since age six. Jordyn and her family benefitted from time at Roger’s House to transition from complete assistance with medical care before heading home.

Lily Beaupre

Sixteen year old Nicholas loves the excitement of the game and being on the Dream Team. Even though he requires assistance in all daily activities his thirst and love for life is abundant. His relationship with Roger’s House only started in May 2011 but both he and his family really benefit from the support.

Qavagua Tunnillie Qav is the captain of this year’s Dream Team by right of his age and his experience. A real go-getter, he has been practicing with Ottawa power wheelchair hockey players and is joining their team this year. Undaunted by his medical condition, Qav goes to St. Mark’s High School, getting himself around in an electric wheelchair.

R0011449924

Two and a half year old Lily brings a real competitive edge to her line on the team. Although she was crawling up until just before her second birthday, she is no longer able. Her parents use Roger’s House for respite which is able to provide the same around the clock medical attention they provide, and still in a home-like setting.

It’s garage sale time June 16 Special to the News

EMC news - A garage sale will be held this Saturday, June 16 from 8 a.m. to 11 a.m. at the Community Bible Church on Stittsville Main Street in Stittsville. Fair trade coffee and home baked muffins will also be available for purchase. The funds raised by this garage sale event will go to purchase the raw materials that will be used for items to be sold at the church’s “The Sow Good Sale” that will be happening in November. The funds from this “The Sow Good Sale” will go towards agricultural projects in Seje in Kenya. Land will be bought by the community and made tillable by villagers. Then crops will be grown, benefitting the entire community. It was back in 2010 that the Community Bible Church heard about the “You Feed Them” initiative undertaken by Osgoode’s Trinity Bible Church. This saw the Osgoode church partner with the village of Yogo on the western edge of Kenya near Uganda to help improve crop yields, among other things. This venture proved so successful that the people of Yogo now have been able to offer food to nearby communities in times of drought. The Community Bible Church was inspired by this Canadian-Kenyan partnership and had the opportunity to partner with Seje, a village near Yogo. Pastor Steve Stewart and several members of the congregation met with the Seje community elders and villagers to discuss their needs, desires and dreams. As a result, the partnership between Seje and the Community Bible Church was started in April 2011. The project is a long term one in which the Community Bible Church is working with the Seje community leaders to help transform Seje into a self-sustaining community. The Seje community leaders have been raising funds to purchase land for a local school and other community facilities. With the down payment on the land in place, villagers have wasted no time in getting to work clearing the land to allow for building. The Community Bible Church, for its part, held its first “The Sow Good Sale” in November 2011. Funds raised have allowed a school struc-

ture to be fully funded and construction has begun. Support from the Community Bible Church has meant that more than 50 four and five years olds, primarily orphans, have been sponsored and since January have been attending school which takes place in a church until the new school building is ready. The sponsored children are

also benefitting from regular nutrition. A child can be sponsored for $40 a month, providing them with opportunities which they otherwise would never have. The Community Bible Church is located at 1600 Stittsville Main Street. It can be contacted at 613836-2606 or at www.cbcstittsville.com

of a few extra hours in the evening when she didn’t have to depend on the coal oil lamp for lighting. Although she still spent time each night on her diaries at the kitchen table, she usually was able to find time to pull out the old pedal Singer sewing machine and often worked long into the night. Of course, when it finally got too dark to see from the light of the window, she would have to move the lamp from the kitchen table to the window sill, under which sat the old sewing machine that was in the house when she moved there. Father had no idea how long it had been there under the window, but he remembered his own mother making shirts and mending overalls on the very machine Mother was putting to use decades later. It was this time of year that flour and sugar bags took on a whole new and different life. Mother would have been saving them since the winter before, so that she had a good supply when she got down to making them into everything from blouses for Audrey and me, aprons, tea towels, pillowcases, and even sheets. Some she was able to buy for a few pennies at the gristmill in Renfrew and the rest came from bags of flour and sugar we bought at Briscoe’s General Store. It would take many washings and bleachings with Javel water to try to rid the bags of their printing.

ment of the sound of it. I could picture in my mind, Mother hunched over the Singer, feeding the flour bags under the foot lever that steered the needle. I could picture her slippered feet working the foot pedal, with the rubber cord that turned the sewing machine into something other than a piece of furniture that held potted geraniums when not in use. How I wished I could be downstairs in the kitchen, sitting beside her, watching her work her miracles with the flour bags. I knew when I came downstairs in the morning, there would be perhaps a new blouse made wearable with added red rick-rack braid around the collar and perhaps bright buttons down the front. Or there would be a stack of fresh tea towels, waiting for my sister Audrey’s deft hand at embroidering the ends with teacups or flowers. The biggest and the best of the bags would be saved for sheets. It would be years before I knew sheets came in one piece. Ours were made of four flour bags, sewn together, with seams going up the centre and from side-to-side. And always there would be new and fresh pinny aprons and of course, one or two pairs of new bloomers. Eventually sleep would overcome me. And I would doze off to the steady clickclack, click clack of the old Singer sewing machine, playing its steady tune downstairs in the kitchen.

With some, it was impossible. Pride of the Valley, Red Rose and other company logos were there forever, and it wasn’t unusual for me to go off to school in bloomers that still showed Pride of the Valley firmly printed across the seat. But then, I wasn’t the only one at Northcote School who wore flour bag underwear, so there was no embarrassment for any of us girls who’s Mother had put the bags to good use. If the Javel water didn’t totally remove the printing, which was always in bright red or a vivid blue, Mother would choose a bright warm and sunny day and spread out the bags over the grass in the yard, hopeful to fade the printing further. She was only marginally successful. On those bags, the printing was there to stay. On the summer evenings that Mother tackled the job of turning the bags into something useful, we five children would go to bed upstairs as usual, knowing that Mother’s job would go on long into the night at the Singer sewing machine We weren’t spared our nightly prayers around her knee, however. They were as important as our final trip out to the outhouse before climbing the stairs. I would have trouble falling asleep those nights. Not because I found the noise of the machine irksome, but because I didn’t want to miss a mo-

Try your hand at making cumin-flavoured hamburgers

PAT TREW

Strawberry buffet dinner at St. Andrew’s

St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church at the corner of Stittsville Main Street and Mulkins Street in Stittsville is holding a strawberry buffet dinner on Wednesday, June 27, with sittings at 4 p.m., 5 p.m., 6 p.m. and 7 p.m. For tickets and information, please phone the church at 613-831-1256.

Food ‘n’ Stuff

It’s easy to buy hamburger patties already made up, but if you’d like to have a hamburger with more flavour, you might want to make your own. By adding seasonings to ground beef, along with breadcrumbs and an egg, you can make a hamburger patty with lots of flavour. Whatever seasoning you choose will add its own distinctive taste whether it’s oregano, basil, chili powder, cumin seed, caraway seed, garlic or onion. For the breadcrumbs, you can use dark rye, whole wheat or sourdough bread. This week’s recipe will get you started with a cumin-flavoured mixture that makes great tasting hamburgers. Cumin and Onion Burgers 454 grams lean ground beef 1 tbsp. olive or vegetable oil 1/3 cup finely minced onion 1/3 cup fine dry bread crumbs 1 egg 1/2 tsp. Worcestershire sauce 1/4 tsp. cumin seed 1/4 tsp. salt In a small frying pan, cook the onion in the oil until softened. In a large mixing bowl, combine the onion

with the meat and remaining ingredients. Lightly mix the ingredients together with either a rubber spatula or with your hands. The mixture will be messy so wear latex gloves if you’re using your hands. Shape the mixture into four patties about two centimetres thick. Handle the meat gently, and don’t press down on it too hard. This helps to keep the mixture moist. Cook the hamburgers over high heat on a barbecue grill or frying pan for one to two minutes per side. Move the burgers to an area of medium heat on your barbecue, or lower the frying pan temperature to medium. Lower the barbecue lid or place a lid on the frying pan, and cook the hamburgers for five to six minutes on one side. Don’t press them down with a spatula as this will squeeze out more moisture. Turn the patties over, and cook, covered, for another five to six minutes. When done, the internal temperature of the hamburger patties should read 160 F (71 C) on a meat thermometer. Serve on toasted buns with your favorite toppings. Makes four hamburgers.

War of 1812 display at Stittsville library John Curry

john.curry@metroland.com

EMC news - You realize just how much is written about the War of 1812 when you view the new War of 1812 display at the Stittsville branch of the Ottawa Public Library. And in viewing this display which is set up just beyond the circulation desk, you also come to realize just how fascinating are the stories and history of the War of 1812. Sure, there is the well known exploits of Laura Secord, Canada’s most celebrated heroine of the War of 1812, and the display features Cheryl MacDonald’s book about this legendary housewife who walked 32 kilometers to warm British troops about an American attack. But this is only the tip of the iceberg of feminine heroics in the war as evidenced by another book in the display, Dianne Graves’ “In the Midst of Alarms: the Untold Story of Women and the War of 1812.� This display of books about the War of 1812, inspired by the recent review of 12 books about the War of 1812 written by Goulbourn Museum volunteer and Munster resident Kurt Johnson as published in the Ottawa Citizen on Sunday, May 6, opens the literary door on some of the heroes of the War of 1812, some of

them like Sir Isaac Brock well known and others, such as Captain James FitzGibbon and his legendary exploits as “Captain Fitz� of the Green Tigers, hated by the Americans for his wily, effective harassing of American troops, perhaps not so well known but just as fascinating as Enid Mallory’s book “Captain Fitz: FitzGibbon, Green Tiger of the War of 1812� recounts. As the display shows, books about the War of 1812 range from J. Mackay Hitsman’s book “The Incredible War of 1812: A Military History� as updated by historian Donald E. Graves and acclaimed as possibly the best single volume account of the War of 1812 to the book “Don’t Give Up the Ship! Myths of the War of 1812� by Donald R. Hickey which deals with some of the heroic figures of the War and how and why some achieved mythological heights. And for Goulbourn residents, there can be no better read than “For King and Canada: The Story of the 100th Regiment of Foot During the War of 1812� by the late A. Barry Roberts who was a key volunteer at the Goulbourn Museum and whose informative work on these soldiers is of special interest to those in Goulbourn since many became the initial settlers of the

area. No display of books about the War of 1812 would be complete without a Pierre Berton presence and a new compendium of his acclaimed works about the War of 1812, “The Invasion of Canada 1812-13� and “Flames Across the Border 1813-14� is there, both proven favourites because of Berton’s flair for making history readable and lively. The display also includes reference to Benson J. Lossing’s book “The Pictorial Field-Book of the War of 1812,� now out of print but available online at the Archive Internet website, as a free download in several formats, or online at the Google Books website. It was first published in 1868 featuring sketches of the people and battlefields of the war and has remained relevant to today’s study of the War of 1812, particularly because of its illustrations and sketches pertaining to the War. The display also touches on some specific aspects of the War of 1812, such as the Battle of Chippawa as told in Donald E. Graves’ book “Red Coats & Grey Jackets, The Battle of Chippawa, 5 July 1814� and in Gilbert Collins’ work “Guidebook to the Historic Sites of the War of 1812� which tells of 426 dis-

tinct sites relevant to the War of 1812. This display now at the Stittsville library is a great “one stop shop� for those who want to see some of the resources available to learn more about the War of 1812, a topic which is now top of mind for many due to the War’s Bicentennial Celebrations that are now underway throughout the province.

And one of these Bicentennial Celebrations comes up right here in Goulbourn this coming Sunday, June 17 as the Goulbourn Museum stages an event marking the War’s 200th anniversary. This free event at the Museum will feature a re-enactment group, exhibitions about the War of 1812 including the 100th Regiment of Foot, Goulbourn’s initial soldier

settlers, games, a BBQ, an old-fashioned photo booth, a book sale and a silent auction. So there is plenty to see and do with everyone welcome to attend. This War of 1812 Bicentennial Celebration at the Goulbourn Museum runs from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. this Sunday, June 17. The Goulbourn Museum is located at 2064 Huntley Road at Stanley’s Corners, just south of Stittsville. Stittsville Main Street becomes Huntley Road at Flewellyn Road which is where Stanley’s Corners is.

Happenings here and there around village of Richmond EMC news – Pam and Doug Champagne raised a total of $798.27 for the Rideau Valley Wildlife Sanctuary with the fundraising dinner and dance which they held for the facility in North Gower. The dinner and dance, held at St. John’s Anglican Church Hall on Fowler Street on Saturday, June 2, included a BBQ chicken dinner followed by a dance with entertainment provided not only by Doug and Pam themselves but by guest artist Rob Dillon. The Rideau Valley Wildlife Sanctuary is a registered charity that treats and cares for injured or orphaned wild mammals and turtles until they are healthy enough to be returned to nature. This sanctuary is the only licensed rehabilitator of wild mammals and turtles serving the Ottawa and Rideau valleys. The sanctuary, which has cared for more than 2,000 animals since 2005, also provides advice on co-existing peacefully with wildlife and provides humane, cost-effective ways to prevent or solve wildlife conflicts. The Rideau Valley Wildlife Sanctuary was in danger of having to shut down its services until a recent outpouring of support resulted in $100,000 in donations being given by supporters all across Canada. The facility receives no government funding, relying entirely on donations and grants to provide its services‌St. John’s Anglican

Church on Fowler Street is hosting a workshop “The Emergent Conversationâ€? this coming Saturday, June 16 at 10 a.m. The workshop will focus on how the church needs to evolve in order to respond to the society of today with which it is trying to interact.

In any case, Gary quickly noticed the omission of the “hâ€? when he went back to revise the wording on the sign to better reflect the luncheon’s menu. No one apparently noticed the omission of the letter but Gary’s perfect spelling record is now history‌St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church on McBean Street is hold-

The protest is to be at this intersection for one more week before Rev. Dubord will be moving it to another location in Kanata‌St. Paul’s United Church on McBean Street has a newly sodded front lawn thanks to the work of Southpaw Lawn Care.
