EMC news - No to a street connection linking Samuel Mann Avenue with a proposed residential subdivision to the east. Yes to a wider green buffer between the existing homes and the new subdivision. But while these might be considered the primary input provided to city of Ottawa Stittsville ward councillor Shad Qadri and city planning staff at a public meeting in Stittsville on Thursday evening, June 13, attended by about 65 residents of the affected area bounded by the new subdivision on the east, Fernbank Road on the south, Stittsville Main Street on the west and Orville Street on the north, there was more, especially dealing with existing traffic conditions on Liard Street and Fernbank Road. There even was some outrage, expressed by Samuel Mann Avenue resident and former Goulbourn township councillor Allan Ryan, about councillor Qadri’s stated position on the proposed roadway connection between Samuel Mann Avenue and the new subdivision, namely that he would not be declaring any position on the matter at the meeting. Councillor Qadri said that he would take the feedback received at the meeting and discuss it with city staff before settling on a position, although he did say that he views himself as a representative of the community at large and will try to make a decision taking into account the needs of the whole community. Mr. Ryan countered that in his view this is a local issue, not one affecting the community at large. He said that councillor Qadri’s comments were “misleading” and said that residents of the area need to know where councillor Qadri stands on the issue and whether he was working on behalf of the residents or on behalf of the city as a whole. See PETITION, page 5

JOHN CURRY/METROLAND

Frank Olszynko, holding his barber’s scissors, stands outside his Heads Up Barber Shop at the Ultramar Plaza on Stittsville Main Street last Thursday afternoon, in front of the shop’s smashed in front window and behind the yellow police tape marking off the area where a vehicle crashed through the window.

‘Heads Up’ - Here comes a drive-thru! John Curry john.curry@metroland.com

EMC news - There’s drive-thru coffee shops. There’s drive-thru banks. But, so far, there are no drive-thru barber shops. Or least there weren’t until Thursday, June 13 when a motorist tried to convert the Heads Up Barber Shop at the Ultramar Plaza on Stittsville Main Street in Stittsville into a drive-thru operation.

And, indeed, the barber shop was perhaps appropriately named for this happening because those in the shop at the time – owner Frank Olszynko and a customer – surely had to have their “heads up” to avoid the silver Mercedes SUV that crashed through the shop’s front window about 1:45 p.m. after having jumped the curb and crossed the plaza’s exterior covered walking area. Mr. Olszynko was busy cutting the customer’s hair

at the time in a chair at the rear of the shop but the chair faces the front window, so the customer had a clear view of the onrushing vehicle. Mr. Olszynko said that the sound of the vehicle smashing through the 12 foot wide glass window with aluminum supports every four feet was like an “explosion,” with slivers and bits of glass flying everywhere. See NO ONE HURT, page 2

No one hurt as vehicle crashes into barber shop Continued from page 1

Fortunately, nothing much hit Mr. Olszynko or the customer. A couch where customers sit while waiting for their turn in the chair was pushed about four feet by the vehicle after it smashed through the front window, even tearing it a little. It is felt that someone sitting on the couch at the time would undoubtedly have been injured by the vehicle. The driver of the SUV apparently got his foot stuck and could not access the brake pedal in time to prevent the vehicle for jumping the curb and crashing into the barber shop’s front window. The Ottawa Police Service were called and arrived on the scene, putting up yellow police tape around the shattered glass and debris. The vehicle itself was only minutely damaged by the whole incident. Around 4 p.m., a window repair crew arrived on the scene and re-

moved the damaged glass and window frame, boarding up the area with wood and plywood. Fortunately, the barber shop’s door was not affected by the crash and was still operational. Although the barber shop could not accommodate any business for the rest of the day, it was back in business last Friday, albeit with a wooden front window but with signage proclaiming that it was open and still in business. As for Mr. Olszynko’s customer who was getting a haircut at the time of the crash, he did get his haircut, although it took about an hour, as Mr. Olszynko had to look after things like phoning the police and the insurance company due to the accident. Mr. Olszynko did not charge the customer for the haircut. This is the first time in Mr. Olszynko’s lengthy career as a barber that anything like this has happened at a barber shop at which he worked.

Petition against street connection presented Councillor Qadri responded that there are three dead-end streets directed into the area of this new subdivision, indicating, in his view, that previous politicians and municipal planners had foreseen that there would be future roadway connections between the existing residential area and new development to the immediate east. He again pledged that he would look at all options available in this matter and would make a decision based on the needs of all residents in the community. And while the possible street connection attracted much of the focus of the meeting, including the presentation of a petition signed by 179 area residents against any road connection, the width of the proposed six-metre wide buffer area with pathway along the western edge of the new development, bordering existing homes, also drew some comment, not only from residents but from city forestry planner Mark Richardson. He made it clear that a six-metre wide socalled buffer, with a pathway running along it, will not be a complete visual barrier between the old and new homes. He said that existing homeowners will be able to see the houses in the new subdivision despite this buffer area which he said would provide what he termed a little bit of a buffer only between the homes. The six-metre width comes from the Fernbank Community Design Plan (CDP) which re-

flects the width of buffer in this area that was requested by residents during the CDP planning process. Later in the meting, Mr. Richardson reiterated his position on the buffer, saying that it will not really be a buffer between the existing and the new homes. “With that width, I would be reluctant to call it a buffer,” he said. Suggestions were made by residents, though, that this proposed buffer area should be viewed as a linear park with as much forest as possible retained, including having a proposed park area preserved as a natural area rather than become a man-made park. It was suggested that the buffer area should be at least two to three times wider than the proposed six metres so that it is truly a green space. Speeding and traffic on Liard Street entered into the discussions at this meeting concern expressed that there is ongoing speeding and cut-through traffic by motorists trying to avoid stop signs on Fernbank Road. It was pointed out that Liard Street has no sidewalks and deteriorating pavement. Councillor Qadri did say that he will be requesting another city traffic study on Liard Street since the last one was done in 2007. Concerns were also expressed about the traffic that would use the existing Samuel Mann and adjacent streets if a road connection is provided between the existing area and the new subdivision which is to have a proposed 581 homes – half singles and half

semi-detached units. And when those at the meeting were told that a traffic study indicates that only three vehicles an hour will use the road connection, they replied that if such a low volume were the case, why have the connection in the first place. One proposal which councillor Qadri said was one of the options on the table is that the proposed road connection would become an “emergency vehicle only” access to the new subdivision. This proposed new subdivision is at least three years before any construction will be happening. The road pattern configuration in the proposed new subdivision, which has, according to Liard Street resident Mike Drennan, a total of 22 intersections, will be looked at by the city, planner Louise Sweet-Lindsay said at the meeting. She also said that the rural nature of the existing streets in the Liard Street/Basswood Street area will be taken into consideration when staff discusses whether Samuel Mann Street should extend into the new subdivision. She pledged that all of the concerns expressed at the meeting will be taken very seriously and play a part in decisions that are made on the various matters discussed at the meeting. This proposed subdivision extends from Fernbank Road to the protected natural environment area that is immediately west of Sacred Heart Catholic High School. It will be immediately east of existing homes on John Sidney Crescent, Liard Street and Caribou Avenue.

Athletes of Year at Sacred Heart John Curry

EMC sports - A banner proclaiming “Husky Athletics” in big, red capital letters hung across the front of the tables holding awards on stage in the Sacred Heart High School theatre, easy for all to see. There was no doubt what this student assembly on Wednesday morning, June 12 was all about – school athletics and, more specifically, the Husky athletic awards for the 2012-2013 school year. And Husky athletics are certainly alive and well at Sacred Heart, with at least 368 individual students participating in one or more sports over the course of the school year. And this past school year, there were 33 different sports offered. Sacred Heart uses a point system involving points awarded to a student athlete for being on a team, for being on a city championship team and for being selected as the most valuable player on the team in determining its four Athletes of the Year – junior female, junior male, senior female and senior male. These Athletes of the Year were each honoured at this Husky athletic awards assembly. The highest point total of all athletes was garnered by Stephanie Carr who is the Se-

member of the varsity snowboarding team. Sacred Heart had four teams this past year which won city championships: the varsity boys baseball team; the senior boys volleyball team; the varsity boys hockey team which went on to play in the provincial high school championships; and the junior girls soccer team. In addition, Sacred Heart sent five athletes to the provincial high school wrestling championships and two athletes (Ali Tierney and Hannah Smith) to the provincial high school track and field championships. At the Husky athletic awards assembly, most improved player and most valuable player awards were presented to recipients in each of the team sports at the school this past year. This Husky athletic awards assembly was brought back this year after not being held last year in keeping with the school’s goal of trying to improve school spirit and pride. The awards assembly preceded the school’s athletic banquet which happened on Friday, June 14 at noon when all of the Husky athletes were provided with a free lunch. The Wednesday awards assembly and Friday banquet were both organized by Sacred Heart teachers Curtis MacNeil and Karen LeBoutillier.

COMMUNITY PARK PARTY AND BBQ June 15th was my 6th annual Park Party and BBQ for the community of Stittsville at the Village Square Park. We had amazing weather and a great crowd combined to make for a fun-filled day. I wish to thank Mayor Jim Watson, Councillor Scott Moffatt, Councillor Marianne Wilkinson along with Ottawa Fire Chief, Chief de Hooge for taking time in their day to come out and say hello to the community. I would also like to thank the Goulbourn Recreation Complex staff, Youth Connexion, OC Transpo, our City Fire, Paramedic, Health and Police Services, our Horticultural Society, Goulbourn Museum, Dandelion Kid’s Consignment Shop, Circus Delight, and Crime Prevention Ottawa for participating during this event. Thank you to Joseph Carbonetto and his team for successfully running the BBQ and feeding over 800 people. Special thanks to all of the volunteers who helped set up and assist during the event. I truly commend their support and commitment to volunteering. COOL OFF WITH CITY OF OTTAWA OUTDOOR SPLASH PADS The Splash Pads were made operational May 17th at a majority of the City’s 100 sites and will operate until Wednesday, September 18th (weather permitting). Please note that all Splash Pad Sites are unsupervised. In Stittsville we are pleased to have 2 splash pads in our area. They are located at Upcountry Park, 310 Upcountry Drive in the south end of Stittsville and Bandmaster Park, located at 230 Mistral Way in the Fairwinds area of Stittsville. Certainly splash pads are a welcome addition to any area. I will continue to do what I can to try to get more installed in future planned parks in our area if they are available to be included. For a list of locations, please visit: http://ottawa.ca/en/residents/parks-and-recreation/parks-and-sports-fields/splash-pads OTTAWA PUBLIC HEALTH PILOTS NEW HEALTHY EATING AND PHYSICAL ACTIVITY GUIDELINES AT FIVE MUNICIPAL CHILD CARE CENTRES Ottawa Public Health (OPH) and the City’s municipal child care centres are working together to promote healthy eating and physical activity for infants, toddlers and pre-schoolers. A new pilot project provides child care centres with nutrition and physical activity guidelines for healthy snacks and meals and active living for children in their care. The Healthy Eating and Physical Activity Guidelines, which are now in place at five pilot City of Ottawa child care centres, ensure that all children have healthy meals and a wide range of physical activities during their day. The guidelines encourage adult-led activities, active free play indoors and out, and child care staff acting as role models for healthy eating and physical activity. The pilot project plans to roll out the guidelines to all 15 City child care centres which serve more than 500 children. This pilot project is one example of OPH’s strong commitment to take concrete steps to work with community partners to improve the health of children in the City. OPH is focused on providing caregivers and parents with the best supports to make healthier choices for children. For more information on Healthy Living, visit ottawa.ca/health or call Ottawa Public Health Information at 613-580-6744 (TTY 613-580-9656). OTTAWA PUBLIC HEALTH AND LOCAL ORGANIZATIONS JOIN TO HELP OLDER ADULTS CONNECT TO SUPPORT SERVICES Ottawa Public Health (OPH) launched the Community Connect training program at Billings Bridge Shopping Centre. Mayor Jim Watson, Board of Health members Councillor Chernushenko and Gisèle Richer, and Dr. Isra Levy, Ottawa’s Medical Officer of Health announced the official start of a new program to assist Ottawa’s older adult population stay connected to essential support services. There are currently over 10,000 older adults in Ottawa who are isolated and have little support from family or friends to act on their behalf. Older adults often want to remain in their own homes for as long as they can. In October 2011, Mayor Watson hosted the Seniors Summit at City Hall to re-affirm the City’s commitment to the well-being of the older adult population. It was through participation and suggestions from residents that the Ottawa Older Adult Plan was shaped, and programs like Community Connect were created. This new program is funded by a grant obtained through the City of Ottawa Older Adult Plan. Billings Bridge Shopping Centre is one of the first Ottawa businesses to encourage tenants and employees to take the training. To request a Community Connect training session or for more information, please visit ottawa.ca or call the Ottawa Public Health Information Line at 613-580-6744 (TTY: 613-580-9656). You can also connect with OPH on Facebook, Twitter (@ottawahealth), blog and now on Pinterest. GO!

A rose by any other name

L

ike many fans, we’re a little disappointed after the city’s new Canadian Football League franchise announced its name as the Ottawa RedBlacks. The naming has certainly put Ottawa on the map, but not in a good way. The moment it was announced, the Internet lit up like a Christmas tree with people criticizing the choice on sports fan websites and Twitter accounts. To make matters worse, the franchise sent out a request to the media to spell out the name using all caps. One pundit on the Internet quipped, “The Ottawa REDBLACKS are apparently that one guy in high school who wants to give himself his own nickname that everyone calls him.� OK, the name Rough Riders was unavailable, as the rights are still controlled by the team’s former owner, Horn Chen. Jeff Hunt, president of Ottawa Sports and Entertainment Group, the organization responsible for bringing CFL football back to the National Capital Region, said red and black are the colours of Ottawa sport, with teams ranging from the original Rough Riders of the 1890s to the past and modern day Senators. The name is “unique, maybe even a little edgy,� said Hunt, adding it’s a brand that will stand the test of time and that fans will eventually get used to it.

But that begs the question, why introduce a name that fans must “get used to�, instead of coming up with something creative, that captures the imagination of a city, and makes fans eager to get behind the team? If the franchise wanted to attract a whole new generation of fans, why pick a name that harkens back to the 20th century? Also, RedBlacks doesn’t exactly smack of creativity -- we can only imagine the process for coming up with that logo: something along the lines of “Hey, the uniforms are red and black...why not call them RedBlacks!� The name RedBlacks will probably stick, but following the example of sports cities throughout the ages, fans will inevitably invent a more palatable nickname. Something that rolls of the tongue when people cheer at Lansdowne Park -- the same way fans in other cities came up with the Habs for the Montreal Canadiens. Blue Shirts for the New York Rangers, or the Boatmen for the Toronto Argonauts. Ottawa’s fans have plenty to celebrate with the return of CFL football to Lansdowne Park starting in 2014, bringing with it all the fabulous traditions of the fall, such as tailgate parties and a touch of frostbite. Eventually we’ll learn to live with the club’s official name. As William Shakespeare once said, “A rose by any other name would smell as sweet.�

Neighbourhood summer events prove it’s always nicer outside

T

hings that start small and comfy can get big and out of hand, particularly if they are successful. Eventually, people begin to lament the absent smallness and comfiness. You see that happening in today’s discussions about the ByWard Market. If this has happened to Westfest, a neighbourhood festival that started 10 years ago, it isn’t obvious from the little window of it I took in. Certainly it has grown considerably, attracting more visitors and presenting bigger entertainment names. But the neighbourhood feeling still survives. I walked down there on a Saturday thinking it would be a nice to grab some street lunch. Walking was my first good decision. Success breeds cars and cars breed congestion and congestion breeds ill temper. Walking avoided all that, and produced an appetite. Where there are crowds you will find people with different attitudes towards being in them. For example, some people are attracted to long line-ups, figuring that they must indicate that the food is good. Other people, instinctively go where the lineup is shortest. That would be me, finding a very nice Polish sausage from a wagon at a traditional spot

Funny Town beside Mountain Equipment Co-op. There then followed a period of trying to remember how to walk and eat at the same time, followed by a period of trying to remember how to get mustard off a shirt. At this time of the day, a kind of happy amateurism prevailed. The big names would come later, after dark, but for now there was a feeling that it was people you knew playing the guitars and violins. Many street musicians and entertainers were highly experienced, you could tell, but there were also high school kids happily pounding out their rock chords, perhaps newly emerged from the garage. There was an enjoyable middle school stage band playing Route 66 for an appreciative crowd. One puzzling thing: of the 21 musicians in the band, only three were boys, by my count. Why is that?

know how much fun it is to pick up a horn and be in the band? Just down the street is a jazz band of middle-aged men and women. You can tell they’re having fun. The spirit of amateurism is also evident in the booths, where small items are being sold, worthy causes are being promoted and demonstrations of this and that are taking place. Few of the people staffing the booths do this for a living. That means there is no such thing as a hard sell, which is refreshing. It also means that the customers are more patient than they might be in store. At a neighbourhood thing like this, you bump into people know you and stop to chat. When you think back upon those chats, you realize they have one thing in common: Nobody is complaining. How rare is that? Two people in Ottawa meet and converse and nobody complains? It must be the sausages and the proximity of ice cream. Or it may be that there are no cars around. We own the street on this day and it feels good. (Although the sensation can be a bit disorienting at intersections where cars reappear and the pedestrians and drivers have temporarily forgotten to watch out for each other.) Another puzzling thing: nobody talks

about hockey. This is Canada and the finals are about to begin and nobody talks about hockey. Sure, the Senators are out of the playoffs, but it feels like a cultural shift that the acquaintances you meet are talking about everything but hockey. Maybe it’s just a peculiar bunch of acquaintances. Everywhere there is food – healthy food, of course, but also an infinite variety of cookies and muffins and ice cream and honey and pickles and more exotic fare, sold by people who seem to be pleased to be out of doors. People are always nicer outside, haven’t you noticed?

The three hour fundraiser on Friday, May 3 which this year featured not only a dance-a-thon and a spin-athon as in previous year buts also a yoga-a-thon, something new this year, raised a total of $13,619.81, topping the 2012 event total of $12,930.50. This happened not only because of the pledges collected by participants in the fitness, spin and yoga classes that took place during the Breast Friends FUNdraiser or the $10 registration fee paid by those who did not have over $50 in pledges but also because of total involvement in the event’s silent auction, a new raffle draw for an Ottawa Senators jersey signed by Daniel Alfredsson and instructors all donating their time in leading the classes that evening. It was a case of everyone contributing in some way. The local business community got involved, with a number of businesses donating items for the silent auction. But in addition to these donations, for this year’s silent auction, each class involved with this Breast Friends FUNdraiser contributed a gift basket with a theme, such as patio or spa. Each participant in the class donated an appropriate item to be included in the gift basket. So participants not only collected pledges and/or paid to enter but also helped out the silent auction in this way. And even the aquafit class (aquafit was not part of the specific event) got involved,

donating a gift basket for the silent auction. So did the GRC’s breast cancer survivor class, donating a silent auction basket as well. This class, which is made possible thanks to the support of Breast Cancer Auction, provides an important fitness component for breast cancer survivors while also serving as a support group for these survivors. But the event benefitted from even more efforts. Pierrette Paquette, a participant, spent nine months doing all the paperwork and making the arrangements so that this Breast Friends FUNdraiser would have a Daniel Alfredsson-signed Ottawa Senators jersey that could be raffled off at the event. Pierrette made this all happen and the resulting draw raised over $900 by itself, helping raise the event’s funds generated to its new record. Participant Jessie Droeske benefitted from Pierrette’s efforts, winning the draw and now proudly wearing the Alfie jersey. Monja DeLuca is another example of why this Breast Friends FUNdraiser is successful. She is a spinning class instructor, one of those who donate their time for the event. She herself instructed three straight one-hour spinning classes. This, for those who don’t know, is like participating in a marathon spinning event because while each hour the participants changed, Monja kept on instructing. And instructing in a spinning class means that the instructor cycles along with the participants. So Monja kept spinning for three straight hours. She is not only fit but also is committed to doing her part in ensuring the success of this Breast Friends FUNdraiser.

I USE MINE TO PAY-PER-RIDE BECAUSE TICKETS COST MORE

So, you can see, that just like beating cancer is the result of personal individual efforts supported by others, so too is this annual Breast Friends FUNdraiser for Breast Cancer Action a happening that involves the individual efforts of many wrapped up in the collective effort of the GRC fitness community. So, whether it is collecting pledges or donating an item for a silent auction gift basket or arranging for a jersey raffle or donating time as an instructor, it all comes together and the result is thousands raised to help Breast Cancer Action with its work. All in all, over 214 participants took part in the evening FUNdraiser on Friday, May 3 at the GRC. The local business community was also involved in the event with a number present on the evening of the FUNdraiser to support participants with opportunities to buy products or have a mini-manicure or massage. A formal presentation of the $13,619.81 raised by this year’s Breast Friends FUNdraiser took place last Friday after a fitness class in the gym at the GRC, with Karen Graszat, executive director of Breast Cancer Action, on hand to receive the symbolic enlarged cheque from Anita Findlay, program coordinator (fitness) at the GRC, who was joined by fitness instructors Allison Prest and Kristal Karam. Breast Cancer Action partners with the city of Ottawa to provide a breast cancer survivor fitness class at the GRC. Fitness is important for breast cancer survivors in order to enhance arm movement and to combat the effects of scar tissue that can be present. The city of Ottawa provides the space for the class at the GRC while Breast Cancer Action funds instructor and other

costs. There is no cost for participants. The fitness class also serves as an informal support group for breast cancer survivors. Breast Cancer Action is an Ottawa-based survivor-directed charitable organization whose mission is to provide information, support and education to women and men diagnosed with breast cancer, their families and the community at large. Its mission includes raising public awareness of breast cancer, operating a post diagnosis support and resource centre to serve those living with breast cancer and developing and maintaining programs to support those affected by breast cancer. Breast Cancer Action receives no government support with all of its funding coming from membership, donations, grants and events. All funds raised stay in the Ottawa area and are used directly to fund programs.

Fireworks will cap off Canada Day celebrations John Curry john.curry@metroland.com

EMC news - Here comes Canada Day 2013. And where everyone is invited to be to celebrate this 146th birthday of our country is Stittsville’s Canada Day celebrations happening on the grounds of Sacred Heart High School at the corner of Abbott Street and Shea Road, capped off with a gala fireworks display. There a host of activities ranging from continuous entertainment to youth games and attractions, all, of course, free thanks to the host Stittsville Village Association and its corporate and government sponsors. The only thing that will have a price tag at these Canada Day celebrations on Monday, July 1 will be the BBQ but you can bet the food will be good, with the Holy Spirit Knights of Columbus doing the barbecuing. This year there will be two performance areas on the go: the main stage as well as a second stage that is new this year that will see performances by, among others, students from West End Music, Grace Lachance and Joel and Kyle Curry. The main stage, meanwhile, will be graced by such performers as Amos The Transparent, the band that was such a hit at last year’s celebrations and is the signature, windup band this year. But the entertainment will extend beyond these stages. Spring Action Trampoline will be putting on an electrifying show right beside the main stage, somewhere around 7:15 p.m. The Ultimate Cheerleaders will be leading the opening parade of dignitaries to the stage at 3 p.m. These dignitaries will include Carleton-Mississippi Mills MP Gordon O’Connor, Carleton-Mississippi Mills MPP Jack MacLaren and city of Ottawa Stittsville ward councillor Shad Qadri. They will be cutting a Canada Day cake for everyone following the opening ceremony. Zip-E the Clown (aka Adam Zimmerman) will be on the grounds at the celebrations, producing balloon creations and otherwise entertaining one and all. Other attractions at these Canada Day celebrations will be Little Ray’s Reptiles, the Countryside Petting Zoo, a hay ride, a bounce, a slide, a train, games and, something new this

year, laser tag. Blue Bamboo Yoga will have a tent where classes will be going on. Moore Chiropractic will also be on site with a tent with information about the importance of posture and spinal alignment. Dandelion Kids consignment shop, in cooperation with The Pot-

tery Playhouse, will have children’s activities. Stittsville’s Scouts will have an area for activities such as archery while the West Ottawa Soccer Club will have players on hand to provide tips about playing soccer. CocoMutts will have a tent with family-oriented activities.

The Goulbourn Museum and the Stittsville District Lions Club will both be presented for the celebrations. Ottawa Fire Services firefighters and the Goulbourn Historical Society are two other groups that will be at the celebrations.. And glow sticks will once again

this year be distributed in the evening as darkness comes and just before the gala fireworks which will be the climax of the celebrations. Those planning to attend these Canada Day celebrations, either from 3 p.m. on or just for the fireworks, are reminded to take along a chair or blanket for seating.

End-of-school-year BBQ at Holy Spirit School Special to the News

EMC news - Mix together sunny, warm weather, activities like a giant slide and bounce, attractions like a teacher dunking tank, a raffle table and lots of food and what do you have? A great time for everyone, obviously. And that is just what was the case at the annual end-of-school-year BBQ held at Holy Spirit Catholic School on Stittsville Main Street in Stittsville last Friday, June 14 from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. Sunshine with blue skies prevailed for the event. Youngsters got to try out the giant multicoloured inflated slide and its companion, the inflated bounce. And, as might be expected, the “Dunk the

Teacher” tank was a big hit, with a lengthy lineup of young arms wanting to throw that ball at the target which would, if hit, send the teacher down into the tank of water. It was a particular hit when teacher Philip Walsh plunged into the water wearing his Toronto Maple Leafs jersey. And the raffle table – what an assortment of items up for grabs. Gift certificates and gift cards from local businesses. Gift baskets galore, many donated and assembled by Holy Spirit families. So you had a beach basket, a “rough & tumble boys” basket complete with Lego truck, and a marvelous movie night basket. Or, if baskets weren’t your thing, there were items like a Sony Ipad speaker dock clock radio or an art set or other similar things.

Then there was the good food thanks to Brown’s Your Independent Grocer and Stittsville McDonald’s. City of Ottawa Stittsville ward councillor Shad Qadri was there, distributing snow cones and candy floss. And there was ice cream and popcorn. Let’s not forget about the fish pond and the photo booth where props like a pirate sword, a crayon or a dragon could be used to capture a fun photo. There was a tug-of-war rope activity and youngsters could test their strength with a mallet and gong game – you know, the one where you slam the mallet down, sending a projectile flying up the vertical section of the game, with only the strongest reaching the gong bell at the

top. The Ottawa Police Service had a presence at the BBQ in the form of a police cruiser and van. Given that the BBQ was held in the playground area behind the school, there were also the school’s play structures available, with a number of children having fun on them. Monsignor Joe Muldoon of Holy Spirit Catholic Parish in Stittsville was present at the BBQ. Christine Pristanski and Tricia Jansen were the parent volunteer co-chairs for this year’s annual end-of-school-year BBQ at Holy Spirit Catholic School which is located on Stittsville Main Street in Stittsville..

Graduation day at ‘Merrily We Go’ Preschool

JOHN CURRY/METROLAND

Graduates of the “Merrily We Go” Preschool of Stittsville this year who received special diplomas at a graduation ceremony on Wednesday, June 12 are, front row, seated, from left, Cara Sutherland, Naomi Pedley, Ava Gertsman, Mandy Bew, Morgan Donaldson and Larissa Mohr; and, back row, from left, teacher Salena Richard, Charlie Mulholland, Nolan Buch, Megan Thomas, Sheppard Scott, Oliver Easton, teacher/director Jayne Tanner and Matthew Pot. Special to the News

EMC news - It’s called “Merrily We Go” Preschool and on Wednesday, June 12, that’s exactly what happened – 12 youngsters merrily went on their way to kindergarten in the fall as the Preschool held its annual graduation day. The youngsters all wore special graduation-themed hats and received personalized graduation diplomas at the morning ceremony attended by their families. The Preschool children entertained their parents with some songs before the graduation

ceremony began. Those who “graduated” from “Merrily We Go” Preschool and are now off to kindergarten in September are Charlie Mulholland, Nolan Buch, Megan Thomas, Sheppard Scott, Oliver Easton, Matthew Pot, Larissa Mohr, Morgan Donaldson, Mandy Bew, Cara Sutherland, Naomi Pedley and Ava Gertsman. This graduation day marks the end of another successful year at “Merrily We Go” Preschool in which the children became prepared for kindergarten while also

becoming more comfortable playing and socializing with other children. Although “Merrily We Go” Preschool is now closed for the summer, it will re-open in September for a whole new group of young preschoolers. “Merrily We Go” offers a program for those aged 2 ½ to three years old twice a week for two hours. In addition, the Preschool offers two different classes for those aged 3 to 4 years old, both running twice a week for 2 ½ hours.

Although both the younger and older classes offer similar play and socialization, the older classes work a little more toward preparing the child for kindergarten by teaching letters, vowels, the calendar, counting, the months of the year and the days of the week, all in fun and creative ways. Every week a new letter is the focus and the children take home fun homework related to the letter, bringing the work back for a fun “show and tell” type presentation. With only 12 children maximum

Three sittings at strawberry supper Special to the News

EMC news - There are close to ďŹ ve million tons or more of strawberries grown around the world. They’re that popular! And strawberries are not only delicious and loved for their aroma, red colour, juicy texture and sweetness but also are nutritious as an excellent source of vitamin C and avonoids which are plant pigments once commonly referred to as Vitamin P which function as antioxidants in the body. One serving of about eight strawberries provides more vitamin C than an orange. But enough about the qualities of a strawberry. We all know that they are great to eat. And so one place that you will want to be is the annual community strawberry supper that is taking place on Wednesday, June 26 at St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church at the corner of Stittsville Main Street and Mulkins Street in Stittsville. You will not only get to enjoy fresh local strawberries served over vanilla ice cream but you will also get to enjoy a supper of turkey, ham and lots of salads. This is an event geared to the whole family. Bring your family or a group of friends. You can even choose your preferred time for all this to happen as there are three sittings – 4 p.m.,

5:30 p.m. and 7 p.m. And don’t forget that there is take out as well. The only thing is that you should act quickly to get your tickets because this is such a popular event that the tickets tend to go fast. You don’t want to miss out on this chance of enjoying those fresh local strawberries. Tickets are $15 for adults; $5 for children aged 6 to 12 years; and free for children aged 5 and under. For tickets, please call the church at 613-8311256 or call Geppy Walton at 613-836-5019. The ďŹ rst garden strawberry was grown in France in the late 18th century. Prior to this, it was wild strawberries that people ate. There are mentions of strawberries in ancient Roman literature. The French began taking the strawberry from the forest to their gardens in the 1300’s. In the early 1400’s, monks were using illustrations of the wild strawberry in their manuscripts. Instructions for growing and harvesting strawberries appear in writings in the 16th century. The introduction of a species of wild strawberry from Eastern North America to Europe in JOHN CURRY/METROLAND the 1600’s was important because this species Rev. Doug Kendall, left, minister at St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church in Stittsville, and gave rise to the modern strawberry.

Geppy Walton, right, the church’s office administrator, point out information on a sign at the church publicizing the church’s upcoming strawberry buffet dinner on Wednesday, June 26 to which everyone in the community is invited.

Holy Spirit Church parking lot Earn Extra Money! becomes school’s fun arcade Keep Your Weekends Free! Special to the News

EMC news - The parking lot at Holy Spirit Catholic Church on Shea Road in Stittsville became a fun arcade on Wednesday, June 12. That’s because it was the site of the annual school carnival hosted by Stittsville’s Guardian Angels Catholic School and so the paved area that normally accommodates church parking became the home of a variety of family fun activities. There was a whole host of children’s games and activities – face painting, a lollipop tree, a jelly bean guess, a “going ďŹ shingâ€? ďŹ sh pond, a ring toss, a bean bag toss, a “Gatorâ€? bounce, a milk jug toss, bowling, a â€œďŹ‚ipping frogsâ€? where a hammer hitting a catapult send a toy frog ying, a dice game featuring two giant dice, a hockey shooting game complete with a goalie to beat and a dunk tank. For even more youngster fun, there was a giant inated slide as well as a bounce. There even was an inated basketball shooting game. And there was also the Kiddie Land area where the younger set could create giant bubbles, ride plastic vehicles and climb a miniature castle. Two city of Ottawa police motorcycles were on hand for viewing and examination as well as two city of Ottawa ďŹ re trucks which youngsters could visit the cab area and feel like a ďŹ reďŹ ghter. You knew that you were in for a good time just arriving at the parking lot, not only because of the warm, sunny weather that prevailed for the 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. event but also because you

walked through a rainbow arch of red, yellow and blue balloons. And there was more than the children’s games and activities. There was the BBQ. And there was also the silent auction table, offering a variety of items ranging from an Ottawa Senators jersey autographed by Chris Phillips to a photograph of the Sens Mika Zibanejad to a Lexmark printer to a signed copy of Brian Kilrea’s autobiography to gift certiďŹ cates/cards from such places as Kungfu Bistro, Oil Changers, Kumon Math and Reading Centre, Saunders Farm and other local businesses. One unique item was a wooden ruler-type “growth chartâ€? that could be placed on a wall to record a child’s growth spurts over the years. And if a BBQ and silent auction were not enough, there was the “GUA’s Got Talentâ€? show which saw 33 different student performances which included singing, dancing, piano playing as well as some more unique talent showcasing such as a pogo stick performance, a Tae Kwon Do demonstration, BMX bike tricks and even an entertaining rubic’s cube routine. City of Ottawa Stittsville ward councillor Shad Qadri was on hand, dispensing sno-cones and cotton candy which has now become a Stittsville tradition at such events. And high above all of this fun activity was a person on yellow-panted stilts, ten feet tall altogether, who amazingly walked among the crowd, stopping here and there to toss balls to people and receive them tossed back. It was a high-lite among many at the carnival.

Season-ending game is golden for Hornets Special to the News

EMC sports - The last game of the season turned out to be a golden one for the Goulbourn Hornets Midget Girls AA basketball team. And it was a big game – the Eastern Ontario Basketball Association regional championship game. Facing the Hawkesbury Selects, the Hornets were facing an unfamiliar opponent that had been steadily improving over the course of the season. This lent some uncertainty to the game for the Hornets. The Hornets led 23-16 at half time and then pulled away in the second half, combining touch defense with accurate shooting for a 52-36 victory and the gold medals. Shelby Bebee was the player of the game for the Goulbourn Hornets with her three second half three pointers. The Hornets had made it to this championship final with two victories in round robin play followed by a 55-34 victory over the Ottawa Shooting Stars in semi-final action. The Hornets used a devastating full court press to build up their lead over the Shooting Stars and then coast to victory and a trip to the championship final. In round robin play, the Hornets defeated Nepean 2 by a 65-24 score and then defeated Cornwall 2 by a

55-15 score with both games featuring an all-round strong team effort. This victory in the Eastern Ontario Basketball Association regional championship game was the sixth time that the Hornets had captured a medal in tournament play during the season. There was only one tournament in which the Hornets did not capture a medal. The Hornets were gold medalists in both the Gloucester Mike O’Connor Memorial Tournament as well as in the Eastern Ontario Basketball Association championships. The Hornets won silver medals at the Kanata Chris Paulin Memorial Tournament and at the Toronto Hoop Dome Tournament. The Hornets won bronze medals in the Kingston Impact Mega Tournament and in the Hamilton Blessed Sacrament Tournament. The Goulbourn Hornets Midget Girls AA team had to work hard all season long. As a team of just nine players, the Hornets were often outnumbered as well as out-sized by their opponents in games. But the Hornets’ skill and determination allowed the team to prevail over their opponents more often than not. Members of the Goulbourn Hornets Midget Girls AA team this past season were Shelby Bebee, Andrea Banks, Mikaela Appelby-Lanoue,

Paige Griffins, Emily Donaldson, Serena Puri, Hailey Norman, Sarah

Van Galder and Serine Rajab. The team was coached by head coach

Ajai Puri and assistant coach Jane Donaldson.

Targeting International Tax Evasion

JOHN BRUMMELL/METROLAND JOHN BRUMMELL/METROLAND

Honest Canadians work hard and pay their taxes in full and on time. But some people feel that they are above the law. They take their money and hide it in offshore bank accounts, resulting in millions of dollars in lost revenue for the government. Since 2006, the Canada Revenue Agency has audited nearly 8,000 cases of suspected international tax evasion, identifying about $4.5 billion in unpaid taxes. This is not fair to law-abiding Canadians. That is why our government is cracking down on these international tax cheats to ensure that taxes on money hidden overseas are recovered.

Park in Stittsville last Saturday.

By not paying taxes, these tax cheats increase the tax burden for average Canadians, leaving less money available for important services like health care and education. As part of Economic Action Plan 2013, our government is empowering the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) with all the tools they need to crack down on this aggressive tax avoidance.

ST IT TSVIL L E A R E A

We have created a dedicated team of international tax experts within the CRA who will help ensure the measures being implemented are working correctly. They will also be working closely with auditors to ensure that this money can be recovered quickly.

QUICK OCCUPANCY AVAILABLE

As part of our Plan, we will also give the CRA the ability to stop, locate and reclaim lost tax money by granting them the authority to review large international wire transfers. This move will also help prevent money laundering and potential terrorist activity.

Furthermore, we have recently launched the ‘Stop International Tax Evasion Program’, which will enable the CRA to create a Crime Stoppers-type system, offering financial rewards for information that leads to the successful collection of taxes from an international tax cheats. The United Kingdom and Germany have similar programs which have proven highly successful at recovering hidden tax money.

168 Loreka Court St.

$394,805

$377,486

Finally, our government is proposing to change reporting requirements for Canadians who have more than $100,000 in foreign income or foreign property. This change will require that these Canadians additional information, in order to help the CRA determine if they have paid their fair share.

Certain conditions apply. Prices subject to change without notice.

Cracking down on international tax cheats will help our government keep taxes low for lawabiding citizens, and help ensure that the services that Canadians and their families rely on are fully funded and paid for fairly and honestly.

Hydro Ottawa is honoured to be the recipient of this year’s United Way Ottawa’s ‘Best Community Campaign’ award.

War of 1812 Tribute goes ahead despite rain John Curry john.curry@metroland.com

0307.R0011949739

EMC news - In the War of 1812, a steady downpour would mean no fighting. That’s because the rainy weather would affect the powder-loaded muskets and there would be many misfires. So, battles would be called off. But this did not apply to last Sunday’s War of 1812 Tribute event hosted by the Goulbourn Museum at its site at Stanley’s Corners where things went ahead despite a steady rainfall which prevailed for the first three hours of the five hour event (11 a.m. to 4 p.m.). The only attraction really cancelled was the wagon rides which had been planned. Horse owner Gary Scharf did unload one of his horses and showed it briefly under the big tent on the Museum site but this was the only glimpse of live horses that happened on this rainy day. The old fashioned photo booth, originally slated for outside, was moved into the Museum building. The unveiling of the new head-in-hole scene featuring a War of 1812 scene was done quickly in wet conditions, although the announcement of the winner was made by Goulbourn Museum Board chair Linda Preston under the cover of the expansive tent which had been set up in the regular parking area at the front of the Museum’s history building. Winning artist in the headin-hole artwork contest was 14 year old Emily Martorana, a grade nine student at Sacred Heart Catholic High School in Stittsville. She is familiar with the Goulbourn Museum, having attended family craft days at the Museum when younger. For winning the contest, she has received credit for 40 volunteer hours, a letter of reference, a $100 Visa gift card and the honour of having a plaque on the head-in-hole artwork identifying her as its creator.

Museum Board chair Linda Preston praised Emily for her creativity and for producing a memorable historical design which features a person on horseback. Emily Martorana said that her design concept came easily to her as she was doing her research about the War of 1812. She said that as she was doing her reading about the War, a picture of what she wanted to create developed in her head. Emily likes doing art and takes art in school. She expressed happiness with the way that her head-in-hole artwork turned out. Emily used War of 1812 hero General Isaac Brock as an inspiration for her artwork. And, ironically, General Brock was at this War of 1812 Tribute, albeit in a miniature form as one piece of a doll collection featuring figures from the War of 1812. This doll collection is to be on display at the Goulbourn Museum through the summer. This doll depiction of General Brock on a horse was designed and made by Edwina Sutherland. Despite the rainy weather, forcing things to happen under cover or inside the Museum, there’s was lots going on at this War of 1812 Tribute. There were children’s crafts like making the military Shako hats. The old fashioned photo booth was kept busy, with families dressing up in period costume and having their photo taken. Bob Easy had the barbecue fired up, albeit under tent cover, and he was kept busy. People get hungry whether it’s raining or not. Inside the large tent that kept the rain away were a display of spinning and weaving by the Richmond Village Spinners and Weavers, a wellstocked used book sale, folks from the Calligraphy Society of Ottawa who created complimentary bookmarks with

JOHN CURRY/METROLAND

Emily Martorana, a grade 9 student at Sacred Heart High School in Stittsville, stands beside the head-in-hole scene which she created and which won a head-in-hole contest held by the Goulbourn Museum, with the artwork being unveiled at the Goulbourn Museum’s War of 1812 Tribute event last Sunday. artistic writing on them for anyone who wanted one and a silent auction which offered a variety of items. For someone really enthused with the War of 1812 and historic re-enactment, the silent auction offered one hour of musket training for two, termed an introduction to historical firearms and a firing session, provided by the 84th Regiment of Foot. There were also books about the War of 1812 as well as other items like a tour and wine tasting at Jabulani Vineyard & Winery of Goulbourn; a candle lantern that would hold three tea candles; a wine basket; a Father’s Day fishing basket; an Ottawa Museum

Network connexion card; gift certificates from Creekside Gardens of Richmond; and one month of introductory horseback riding lessons at Lilac Lane Equestrian Centre of Munster. Inside the Museum, the new exhibit that presents the timeline of the 100th Regiment of Foot for the War of 1812 time frame was on display for the first time. It even attracted the attention of city of Ottawa mayor Jim Watson when he visited this War of 1812 Tribute event. The mayor also showed interest in other regular Goulbourn Museum display items such as the giant safe of Dr. R.C. Chanonhouse of Richmond.

Mayor Watson was able to view the 100th Regiment’s War of 1812 timeline display in the company of the two military re-enactors who were at the event, Bram Blenk Jr. who was dressed as a Canadian militia fighter from that time and Keith Lindsey who was resplendent as a red-coated sergeant of the Canadian Fencibles 84th Regiment of Foot which distinguished itself in the battles of Crysler’s Farm and Chateauguay in the War of 1812. Both Bram and Keith were on hand throughout the War of 1812 Tribute event and toward the end of the event, when the rain had stopped, Bram did demonstrate the firing of his

musket. He explained that a musket shoots a ball similar to a marble, powered by powder put in the musket’s pan. He showed how a packet of powder had to be opened up with a soldier’s teeth. This was the reason why a British soldier was required to have at least two teeth beside each other. Otherwise, the power packet could not be opened when in action. Bram’s demonstration suffered a couple of misfires which he explained was an example of how unreliable these muskets were, especially in wet weather. What was that about battles not being pursued in rainy conditions? But when the musket did fire, the “bang” was loud and the puff of gunpowder was encompassing. A lot of these muskets firing at once on a battlefield would have been terrifying in itself. The Goulbourn Museum, for this War of 1812 Tribute event, had on display four small War of 1812 scenes painted by Stittsville artist Mark Grasza who has had one of his large paintings of a War of 1812 scene on display in a recent exhibition at the Ottawa West Arts Association (owaa) gallery in the foyer area of the Goulbourn Recreation Complex in Stittsville. Everyone who attended this War of 1812 Tribute event last Sunday were able to receive a free copy of the newly published Goulbourn Museum booklet “Goulbourn’s Top 12” telling the stories of 12 War of 1812 veterans who became Goulbourn settlers. The soft covered 27 page booklet was made possible thanks to funding from the federal government’s 1812 Commemoration Fund. The booklet was produced by Goulbourn Museum volunteers and staff. The War of 1812 Tribute event was also assisted by funding from the federal 1812 Commemoration Fund.

Booklet about ‘Goulbourn’s Top 12’ from War of 1812 John Curry john.curry@metroland.com

EMC news - The “Late Show with David Letterman” has its Top Ten List. Well, move over, David. Goulbourn now has its own list, namely “Goulbourn’s Top 12” from the War of 1812. This is the title of the new 27 page, soft-covered, bilingual booklet produced by the Goulbourn Museum thanks to the financial assistance of the federal government’s 1812 Commemorative Fund. The booklet was distributed free to those who attended the Goulbourn Museum’s War of 1812 Tribute event at the Museum’s Stanley’s Corners site last Sunday. Goulbourn Museum volunteers and staff worked to produce this “Goulbourn’s Top 12” of the War of 1812 booklet. Those who contrib-

uted to the research, writing, editing, design and illustrations for the booklet were Kurt Johnson, Tracey Donaldson, Sue Woodford, Carina McDowell, Kathryn Jamieson and Adam Jamieson. Those who contributed to the research were Ed Kipp, Evelyn Leroux, Sarah Mahoney, Barbara McCourt, Jim McTavish, Lorna Milne, Jim Stanzell and D.R. Wilson. The booklet tells the stores of men and women who participated in the War of 1812 and then went on to become settlers in Goulbourn. The War of 1812 was fought by regiments of British soldiers including the 100th Regiment of Foot, a group of soldiers raised in Ireland for service in Canada. The 12 stories in this booklet take the reader through the war years, casting light on the exploits of these members of the 100th Regiment of

Foot who later accepted land grants or settled in Goulbourn. The 12 stories told in the booklet include the following: George Thew Burke, who was commended for exemplary service in both the Napoleonic Wars and the War of 1812 where he served with General Isaac Brock in 1812 at the Battle of Queenston Heights and where in 1813 he displayed his bravery at Sackets Harbor. He went on to be the superintendent of the Richmond military settlement, a colonel in the First Carleton militia, an elected representative in the Legislative Assembly of Upper Canada and the first land registrar for Carleton County; John Crozier, a private, who was shipwrecked off Newfoundland in 1805 but survived. He was wounded in the Battle of Chippawa in 1814 and afterwards became a prisoner of

war of the United States. After the war, private Crozier took up a land grant near Stittsville; The Green brothers – Robert, James and Thomas – were all drummers with the 100th Regiment of Foot in the War of 1812. They took up land grants in the Munster area in 1818. Maria Hill, a so-called “daughter of the regiment,” travelled with her husband Sergeant Andrew Hill and the 100th Regiment of Foot. She met Laura Secord at Queenston Heights and later disguised herself as a man to remain with her husband. After the war, Maria and her husband Andrew operated a tavern in Richmond; Hugh Wilson, a private with the 100th Regiment of Foot, was wounded in the attack on Sackets Habor in New York State. He later took part

in the 1813 storm of Fort Niagara. After the war, he took up land near Munster; William Patterson, a sergeant in the 100th Regiment of Foot, settled on a farm in Goulbourn after the war; Andrew Spearman was one of the soldiers of the 100th Regiment who captured Fort Niagara in 1813. Following the war, he farmed near Stittsville; John Dennison was involved in the attack on Fort Niagara in 1813 and in the Battle of Chippawa in 1814 where he was wounded. He died in Richmond in 1818; Joseph Maxwell, a Lieutenant of the 100th Regiment of Foot, was captured when the Americans took Fort Erie in 1814. After the war, he settled in the Richmond area; See MUSEUM, page 35

Children’s health, safety day at Saunders Farm John Curry john.curry@metroland.com

EMC news - On Saturday, June 29, you can return home from Saunders Farm in Munster not only having had a lot of fun but also with lots of information and awareness about children’s health and safety. It’s all because Moore Chiropractic Health Centre of Stittsville is partnering with Saunders Farm for a special children’s health, safety and environmental awareness day, running from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Regular admission rates for Saunders Farm will apply but for this you will not only have access to all of the attractions at Saunders Farm such as the hedge mazes, splash pad, jumping pillow, pedal carts, puppet shows, hay rides, playhouses, pirate ship, Witch Mountain slide and Saunders Mining Company but also will be able to visit the Pavilion at Saunders Farm which will be full of displays and activities about children’s health and safety. Since this will be happening inside the Pavilion, these special displays organized by the Moore Chiropractic Health Centre will go ahead rain or shine, running from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. There will be free spinal assessments for children, in-

cluding a digital photograph of their posture. Children of any age will be welcome. Even babies will be gently checked. Dr. Jim Moore of the Moore Chiropractic Health Centre says that while 30 percent of children suffer some sort of back pain, often spinal problems manifest themselves in other problems like chronic ear infections or breathing troubles. A spinal assessment done on a child can often detect spinal problems and correct them before they become a lifelong affliction. Dr. Moore says that spinal functions can be affected adversely in children just as they are in adults, perhaps by a child falling off a bicycle. Even sleeping with too thick of a pillow can impact spinal alignment in certain cases. He admits that many parents never think of getting a child’s spine checked but he notes that when he does spinal assessments for children, he often picks up problems that can be easily and gently corrected. But free spinal screenings for children are only a small part of what will be available and on display at this children’s health, safety and environmental awareness day on Saturday, June 29. Children will have the op-

portunity to make crafts from recycled materials. There will be a massage therapist on hand who will do so-called “chair” massages for both children and, yes, you adults as well. A “chair” massage is like a mini-massage that focuses on the upper and middle back. Children will get to enjoy not only face painting but will be able to receive tattoos as well. There will be information on children’s nutrition as well as information on fire prevention, cycling safety, toy safety and water safety. “They’re going to learn a lot,” Dr. Moore says about children who attend this health and safety day. Parents will be happy that there will also be information on car seat safety. You want to make sure that the car seat is installed properly and will function safely in an emergency. There’s also going to be continuing draw prizes given away at this event, with the prizes donated by various local businesses. Dr. Moore has done special children’s days in the past and had been thinking of hosting another one. Munster resident Vicki Gibson, who works at Moore Chiropractic Health Centre and is familiar with Saunders Farm and its attrac-

tions, suggested that Saunders Farm would make a great venue for such a special children’s day, as it could be held along with all of the regular fun attractions at Saunders Farm.

Saunders Farm liked the idea and so this children’s health, safety and environmental awareness day hosted by Moore Chiropractic Health Centre at Saunders Farm at

Munster on Saturday, June 29 has become a reality. Everyone is urged to attend and have lots of fun while learning a lot about a lot of children’s health and safety issues.

EMC news - “For whom the bell tolls,� you ask? Well, borrowing from this title of Ernest Hemingway’s renowned 1940 novel set in the Spanish Civil War, this coming Sunday the bell will surely be tolling for those at St. Paul’s United Church in Richmond. That’s because there will be a memorial dedication of the church’s recently completed gazebo and mounted church bell following its regular 10:30 a.m. service. Weather permitting, the dedication ceremony will be held at the gazebo which has been built on the south side of the church. This memorial project of a gazebo and mounted church bell was initiated by the Memorial Committee at the church, with the funds coming from memorial and funeral reception donations. The project is in memory of several whose families and friends have made memorial donations in their names. These names are listed on a plaque placed on the front of the podium on which the bell stands. Noy that much is known about this bell, except that it rang for years from a bell tower at the front of the church. It was purchased for $50 by a Mr. Higginson from Munster who donated it in 1901 when the original Methodist church was built on this site. It was the third Methodist church building to be built in Richmond. The bell was placed in a bell tower at the front of the church where it was rung every Sunday morning. However, in 1965, St. Paul’s was renovated when the front outside stairs were removed to make room for a new addition. It was at this time that the bell was removed and was re-installed on the roof of a new rear addition over the choir room. This remained the situation until 2006 when the weight of the bell was causing concerns with the church roof. As a result, the bell, estimated to weigh about 1500 pounds, was taken down by a crane. It then sat in the backyard of the church until last fall when, thanks to a lot of “blood, sweat and tears� by a crew, it was loaded into the back of a truck

and taken to the Car-O-Practor Auto Body Shop on Ottawa Street where it was sandblasted and painted. The gazebo which now protects the bell was constructed by D.E. Kinkade Konstruction of Richmond while its interlock surroundings were prepared by Blanchard Landscaping. Southpaw Property Maintenance has looked after most of the final landscaping. The south side of the church has been beautified with 90 feet of flower beds along the church being planted with plants donated by friends and neighbours of the church. The flowers, planted by some of the ladies of the church, are being maintained by church members. Four large containers of geraniums on each outside corner of the gazebo add another floral dimension to the scene. These were donated by Scott Cummings of Creekside Gardens in Richmond. This dedication of a gazebo and mounted church bell is the latest of a number of memorial projects which have been undertaken at St. Paul’s United Church in recent years. Memorial donations were used to help fund the installation of an elevator in the church. The church’s sound system has been upgraded by adding televisions, a video camera and a projector to the existing system. Now a signal can be sent from the camera in the church sanctuary to a television in the basement church hall. The church’s sign, which is now known for its humourous sayings that attract the attention of those passing by, was another memorial project, erected in memory of Aggie O’Brien and Joan Adams. The stained glass windows which border the sides and top of the front entrance doors at St. Paul’s are another memorial project, installed in loving memory of Scott Foster by his family (Walter and Donna Foster). The church’s front outside entranceway and interlock walkway is another project that memorial donations funded. This coming Sunday, June 23 is going to be a busy day at St. Paul’s

vice, there will be more happening at the church where there will be everyone will be welcome to enjoy a cold plate of ham, a variety of salads, buns and, wait for it, strawberry shortcake, with the strawberries arriving compliments of Shouldice Berry Farms.

pening from 3 p.m. to 6 p.m. with everyone welcome to attend. The cost will be $15 for adults, $6 for children aged 6 to 12 years and free for children aged 5 and under.

EMC news - Two from Stittsville were among the 53 who received high school graduation diplomas at the Algonquin Achievement Centre’s graduation ceremony on Wednesday, June 12. Andrew Baxter and Julian Gay both received their diplomas at the ceremony. The Algonquin Achievement Centre of the Ottawa Catholic School Board is a partnership between the school board and Algonquin College which allows students to study and take courses in a college setting while completing their high school education. The Algonquin Achievement Centre functions under the guidance of St. Paul Catholic High School. The graduation diplomas were presented to the students including Andrew and Julian by St. Paul High Catholic High

Beginning June 27, 2013, the Ottawa Police Service (OPS) will collect the observational recordings of the race of drivers involved in traffic stops for a two-year period. Drivers will not be asked to identify their race. The focus of the project is officer perception of driver race. Passengers are not included in the study. This project is the result of an agreement between the Ottawa Police Services Board and the Ontario Human Rights Commission (OHRC). The OHRC and the OPS believe that race-based data collection is important in ensuring bias-free policing services. The data will be provided to the OHRC at the end of the two-year collection period. It will be limited to information required for analysis. The data will not include any personal identifiers of drivers. The project will be the largest of its kind in Canada.

School principal Geoff Edwards who became the St. Paul principal earlier this year after being a longtime vice-principal at Sacred Heart High School in Stittsville. The students wore formal gowns and mortarboards for the ceremony which took place at Algonquin College. Joan Savoie, who lives in Stittsville, is the teacher at the Algonquin Achievement Centre. She introduced all of the graduates as they headed to the stage to receive their diplomas from Mr. Edwards. The graduation ceremony also included a valedictory address by graduating student Victoria Petrilli and the presentation of a number of awards including academic distinction awards in art, English, civics, mathematics, science, history, technology, business, parenting, hospitality, anthropology, psychology and sociology, health and physical fitness, religion, native studies and geography. There were also Algonquin Dual Credit Achievement Awards, Student Success Awards, a business bursary and a 2013 Lieutenant Governor’s Community Volunteer Award.

All of these awards and diploma presentations were captured photographically by Sacred Heart High School grade 12 student Amanda Bureau who took a photograph of each graduate receiving his or her diploma and/or award. Digital copies were going to be made available to the graduates. Amanda, who admits that she

loves taking pictures with her digital camera, took about 300 photos altogether at the ceremony. And taking photos at an Algonquin College-based event is something of a preparation for her for this fall as she will be attending Algonquin College herself for photography. She hopes to become a wedding and/or nature photographer.

Family BBQ at St. Stephen Special to the News

EMC news - It was a first-ever happening at St. Stephen Catholic School in Stittsville and it was great. What helped make this inaugural family BBQ enjoyable and memorable was the weather – it was superb with sunny, warm conditions, with only a few wispy clouds in the otherwise blue sky. Shorts and casual summer clothing was the order of the day for everyone. But while this weather provided a great setting for the event, it was the food and family fun, along with a number of community demonstrations, which really achieved star status for this event which ran from 4:30 p.m. to 7 p.m. on Wednesday, June 12 in the school’s playground area. There was an extensive menu offered – chicken burgers, hamburgers, veggie burgers, hot dogs and fries. And don’t forget the sno-cones. There were even some tables and chairs set up for comfortable eating – an outdoor restaurant, as it were. But this BBQ event offered more than just food. There was a giant slide and also a bounce, both magnets for fun-loving youngsters. In addition, there was face painting and the school’s play structure saw a lot of activity, as did the playground’s basketball hoop. There were also a number of demonstrations presented during the event – done by those from local dance, gymnastic and martial arts studios. This BBQ event also featured a raffle table that was filled with themed gift baskets – ones for gardening, for baking, for sports, for picnics, for reading, for movie nights, for sleepovers, for barbecuing and JOHN BRUMMELL/METROLAND for summer fun.

EMC news - She’s known by the students around South Carleton High School as Ms. J. It’s an indication of the fondness which they have for this art and physical education teacher who has worked at the school for the past nine years, teaching various grades over this time. Officially known as Mrs. Natalie Johnston, over the years she has been responsible for the school’s semi-annual art show as well as other special events and activities, helping a charity whenever possible. Now, though, Ms. J is leaving South Carleton and in September will be taking on a new position as head of the art department at Canterbury High School, the Ottawa Carleton District School Board’s school specializing in the arts. “Selfishly I want her to stay but it is a great opportunity and I am so happy for her,� says Tammy Kwan, one of Ms. J’s grade 11 art students. Indeed, an indication of the fondness which students at South Carleton have for Ms. J was shown this past week when her grade 11 art class threw a going-away party for her, an occasion which included a giant-sized card and cake made by the students. These students are going to miss her.

The semi-annual art show at South Carleton has become a tradition. At the end of each semester, Ms. J, along with a couple of other art teachers, transform a classroom into an art gallery where student art work is displayed on the walls and on tables where everyone can view it. This art show coincides with the school’s dance show and so during the show’s intermission, the classroom is always filled with parents and dancers alike, admiring the student work. In addition, the students themselves often encourage family and friends to attend the show to see their art work. “Getting the art show ready is so much fun because you get to see the amazing art from each student,� says Emily Lorentz, one of Ms. J’s grade 11 students. This year Ms. J’s grade 12 art class turned a silk screening project into an event for charity. The students printed their designs on t-shirts, selling them at the school. The students raised $450 with the funds all going to youth.net, a youth-for-youth mental health promotion program. “We chose to donate the money to youth. net because it means something to us and we’re helping other kids our age,� says Deanna Schuster, one of the students involved in the tshirt project.

Quilts, art at St. Paul’s Church John Curry

john.curry@metroland.com

EMC news - The pews at St. Paul’s United Church in Richmond had a different look last Saturday. While normally populated with people attending a worship service, the pews were filled last Saturday not with people but with quilts. Held in conjunction with a luncheon in the church’s downstairs hall, both events were held in association with the annual outdoor quilt show which also

took place last Saturday at the nearby The Country Quilt shop. The quilts were provided for this display by members of the congregation, by Betty Giffin of the Victoria’s Quilts Canada organization and by the Scrappy Quilters group. One of the quilts on display, a real gem, dated from 1896. Another, a Leaf Vine Applique quilt, was made in the 1950-54 time frame by Etta Siddon Blair of Grand Valley, Ontario for her granddaughter, Gail Gawryluki, who is now a member of the St. Paul’s congregation.

JOHN CURRY/METROLAND

Betty Giffin, founder of Victoria’s Quilts Canada, sits at a table publicizing the non-profit charitable organization at the quilt display which took place at St. Paul’s United Church in Richmond last Saturday.

But St. Paul’s United Church featured more than just quilts last Saturday. The front of the church featured an expansive display of art created by artists at Ottawa’s Artistic Expressions Studio which is a joint project of Centretown United Church and Centre 507. This studio is for men and women who frequent drop-ins and live in rooming houses and shelters or who live on the street. This includes painters, sculptors and carvers. Centre 507 and Centretown United Church created the Artistic Expressions Studio to provide an equipped studio space to these artists. The studio is housed at the Centretown United Church. Participating men and women are given a Studio membership entitling them to free access to the studio space and supplies during set hours of operation. Funding for the program comes from a variety of sources including fundraisers organized by Centretown United Church and donations gathered via the Christmas Gifts of Vision campaign of the Ottawa Presbytery of the United Church of Canada. Centre 507 contributes the staff time of a social worker during the operation of the Studio.

Betty Giffin, founder of Victoria’s Quilts Canada, was on hand at the church to spread awareness about the organization which is a national nonprofit charitable organization headquartered in Ottawa which provides hand-made quilts at no cost to people with cancer. The quilts provid not only physical comfort but also spiritual comfort as the recipients know that they are not alone in their struggle. Founder Betty Giffin was seeking a way to share her faith and her love of quilting and so she founded Victoria’s Quilts Canada with the blessing of Deb Rogers who had earlier started Victoria’s Quilts in the United States. Beginning with 12 ladies in Oct. 2000, Victoria’s Quilts Canada has now grown to having volunteers across Canada working to provide quilts to those battling cancer. Most quilts are made by volunteer quilters who meet in groups where they are supplied with all the materials needed for the work. Victoria Quilt’s Canada can be contacted by phone at 613843-9212 or via email at betty@ victoriasquiltscanada.com . The downstairs luncheon at St. Paul’s United Church last Saturday proved immensely successful, with over 100 dropping in to enjoy it.

EMC news - “Sock it to me.” This was the now-legendary phrase that comedian Judy Carne became known for in her comedy sketches on the iconic American television program “Rowan & Martin’s Laugh-In” which ran from 1968 to 1973 and is now considered as one of the greatest TV shows of all time. It is a phrase that could apply as well at last Saturday’s third annual “Art in the Park” art show and sale hosted by the Richmond Village Art Club at Memorial Park in Richmond, not with an artist getting doused with water or something else as was prone to happen to Judy Carne on “Laugh-In” but because of the presence and demonstration at the event of antique sock making machines by the pair of Devon Bartley and Allison Johns. These antique sock making machines date from the early 20th century, with a Quebecbased firm being a main manufacturer. Hand operated, these machines allow the operator to knit a full pair of socks in under an hour. Indeed, Devon Bartley said that a single sock could be completely knitted in about 20 minutes thanks to this machine, far less time than hand knitting could accomplish the task.

Ask about our custom-built bungalow on our last waterfront lot. Ready for move-in, the Capri 3 is a 3 bedroom, 3 bathroom, 2,182 sf.ft. custom bungalow with loft, loaded with extras and priced to sell at $549,900

The machine, which is circular with adjustable pins sticking out of it, allows the operator not only to knit socks but also can be adjusted to make anything tubular or even a straight piece of knitting. This antique circular sock knitting machine allowed housewives in the early 1900’s to knit socks much quicker than by hand. The machine does everything including stitching a double heel except for putting together the toe area. This has to be done afterwards. These machines played a role in the First World War effort on the home front as it allowed women at home to sew socks for the troops overseas at a faster pace than could be achieved by hand. What is really good about the machine is that the operator does not necessarily have to know anything about knitting, although Devon Bartley admitted that such knowledge would be helpful. But these antique circular sock knitting machines were only one of the unique features at this year’s “Art in the Park” besides a wide collection of artwork by numerous artists. Diane Lalonde and Linda Dillon had a display of wired and unwired custom jewellery on display at the event which was held under sunny, warm skies. See ART IN THE PARK, page 47

‘Art in the Park’ in Richmond Continued from page 46

Although Diane still works full-time, she has now been creating custom-made jewellery for about six years and she readily admits that when she sleeps, she tends to dream jewellery. She comes up with her own unique designs and then sets about to make the piece of jewellery. “Art in the Park” also included a display of painted tiles and stained glass by Sharleen Beresford. In addition, there was a varied display of hand-created items made by a local ladies’ craft group centred at the Goodwood Apartments and St. John’s Anglican Church. Their work includes not only quilting but also crocheting, knitting and virtually any other hand craft. Some of the group’s work is on sale at Creekside Gardens in Richmond and it also provides items to local charitable organizations. But art still dominated at this “Art in the Park” event. Goulbourn artist Sheila Murphy had a display of her works, not only more traditional landscapes like a painting of a log barn in a winter setting but also a larger more abstract painting of a waterfront city in China as seen from a boat on the Yangtze River. Most of Sheila’s paintings are created thanks to photos taken during trips to places like China and Mexico. The log barn painting, though, came from a scene right near her home. Sarah Tompkins had several of her giant paintings on display at this year’s “Art in the Park” in Richmond. She finds that

the large size has helped her learn how to use different paints and techniques. And where she finds inspiration for these paintings is somewhat creative in itself. She gets much of her inspiration for her paintings from abandoned homes and even an abandoned hotel. Sarah, who has always been interested in art and who attended Canterbury High School, has just one more semester to go to finish up her Fine Arts Degree at Queens University. Pursing a Master Degree will probably follow, after which she hopes to work in the arts field. Those at this year’s “Art in the Park” event in Richmond included Coralie Bartley, hand painted silk scarves; Devon Bartley and Allison Johns, hand-knitted and antique circular sock knitting machine socks; Les Bartley, acrylic on board landscapes; Sharleen Beresford, painted tiles and stained glass; Aimee Britten, photography; Goulbourn Craft Group, knitting, embroidery and quilting; Rosemary Holt, pen and ink and coloured pencil art; Moe Hussain, encaustics and oils; Kelly Aspa, abstracts; Diane Lalonde and Linda Dillon, wired and unwired custom jewellery; Heather Martineau, encaustics; Kat McClure, mixed media abstracts; Sheila Murphy, acrylics; Salena Richard, drawings, paintings and hand-made aprons; Monika Seidenbusch, figure paintings and abstracts; Sarah Tompkins, large scale oil JOHN CURRY/METROLAND on canvas paintings; Vera Van Baaren, modernist acrylics; and Alexis Williams, Three members of the craft group involving ladies from the Goodwood Apartments and St. John’s original gyotaku fish images on Japanese Anglican Church in Richmond who had a display of their craft items at “Art in the Park” at Memorial Park in Richmond last Saturday are, from left, Helen Webster, Diane Wells and Audrey Turpin. rice paper.

Outdoor quilt show in Richmond John Curry john.curry@metroland.com

EMC news - Imagine using 40 metres of fabric and taking 490 hours to make a quilt. What a commitment and undoubted labour of love! But you only had to see this king-sized quilt made by Vikki Zulpo entitled “Nights in Jaipur” hanging in the outdoor quilt show at The Country Quilter shop on McBean Street in Richmond last Saturday to be amazed by the finished product. With its colours inspired by a hotel stay in a converted palace in India, the quilt features an original design using traditional log cabin with a twist block. And this was just one of the yard-full of quilts on display in this year’s outdoor quilt show, all hanging on ropes strung from post to tree to shed throughout the yard – with a variety of shapes, sizes, designs and colours. Take, for example, Barb Tench’s “In the Woods” quilt featuring a montage of deer and wildlife scenes which she made for her son’s wedding. Or the quilt done by Pauline Clarke called “Rambling Rose” with its eye-catching

white, red and other colours. Or a Dianne Milks quilt featuring a blue and red patchwork of colour. Or Jean Beverdge’s quilt called “Sampler” or Dianne Wilson’s “Mystery Quilt” with white zigzagging through its green, red and other colours or Krista Zaleski’s “Guild Mystery” quilt with its golden yellow squares and more zigzagging white. Having sunny, warm weather prevail for this year’s show only enhanced its appeal. So too did the peonies and white yarrow in bloom on the grounds. A white picket fence near the entrance was adorned with quilted purses – a real eye catcher. Not far away was a display of pillow cases for children made by members of the Saturday Stitchers. These pillow cases are going to be donated to the Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario. A sharpening service was on site for some of the show. There was also a used book sale taking place and a sewing machine repair service was also set up on the grounds. This year’s outdoor quilt show at The Country Quilter was the tenth annual such event.

MARY COOK Mary Cook’s Memories EMC lifestyle - Going into Renfrew to the grist mill with Mother was always a treat for me. I marvelled at how she bartered for a good price on the flour bags and how she always seemed to come out with a good bargain. There would be no Saturday-night house party that week as my sister Audrey, Mother and I would spend the evening getting the bags ready for the Monday washing. There would be seams to rip out and those that needed it were cut open with the scissors so that they would

lay flat. Of course, they still carried the remnants of the flour they once held and by the time we had worked our way through the basket of bags, we were covered from head to toe. Even our hair was flecked with flour. But since it was Saturday night anyway, our weekly bath and head wash would take care of that. Before they could be made use of, the flour bags had to be washed twice. On Monday morning, they were washed separate from the

CAT OF THE WEEK My name gives it away does it not.... I am a BIG Kitty cat!!! but ever so gentle, sweet and affectionate. My fur is short and is pewter grey and white ...

AM I GOLIATH

rest of the laundry, and hung over the fence to dry. That washing was to get rid of the flour dust. The next stage was one I detested and I tried to keep my distance. Mother bought big glass bottles of javel water from Briscoes General Store. Using a big square tub, the bags were soaked for the better part of a day in a mixture of water and javel. This was supposed to take out the bright printing that came with every flour bag, but sadly, it never quite did the job. It wasn’t unusual for me to wear bloomers made out of the bags, with “Pride of the Valley” still quite visible across my behind. Then the bags had their second washing. If it was a sunny day, they were spread out on the grass outside in the hope the hot rays of the sun would further diminish the vivid printing on every bag. The best bags, once they had been washed, were laid out flat and the very best of them became sheets. It took four bags to make one sheet and I was off the farm before I found out that sheets didn’t come with a seam down the middle and one going cross wards! Working around the printed words was a challenge for Mother. She made sure that the best pinny aprons were free of print and pillow cases, sometimes after being bleached three or four times, were ready for embroidering by Audrey and me. The aprons Mother made out of flower bags were enormous. They had long tails to tie at the

back, and when I had to wear one to churn for butter, it covered me from chin to my ankles, and lay in a heap around my feet on the floor. A coat hook at the back kitchen door held many aprons. These were always fresh as a daisy, ironed, and spanking white. As soon as Mother heard someone come in the lane, she ripped off the apron she was wearing, even if she had just put it on that morning, and reached for one off the hook. Heaven forbid that she should be caught with a spot on an apron in front of company, even if it was just another farmer coming to have a chat with Father. The bags had many uses and the price was just right for those Depression years. And what was known many years later as recycling was just another way of surviving those days when there was no money for frivolities. Although just about everyone at the Northcote School wore flour-bag underwear, with a few exceptions like my little friend Joyce and my rival Marguirite, there were times when I wished there was a better way of getting rid of the dyed printing on just about every pair of bloomers I wore. The answer came one morning when I was dressing for school. I mistakenly put the bloomers on backward. The printing was still there, but it was less likely to be seen in a game of tag or ball if my skirt accidentally flew up. Ever after I went to the Northcote School with my flour-bag underwear on backwards and no one was the wiser.

Strawberry breakfast parfaits with wheat berries - Wow! EMC lifestyle - This is an easy summer entertaining brunch idea. The parfaits can be made ahead to allow for relaxed and easy entertaining. Wheat berries are a true whole grain: they are loaded with nutrients; add a slight crunch and subtle nutty flavour to the parfait. Layers of luscious, creamy whipped ricotta, chewy wheat berries, slices of strawberries and maple syrup for sweetness, will have everyone endlessly dipping their spoons and clanking the bottom for more. Preparation time: 15 minutes. Standing time: 12 hours. Cooking time: 90 minutes. Serves eight. Ingredients 250 ml (1 cup) wheat berries 25 ml (2 tbsp) packed golden brown sugar 2 cinnamon sticks, broken in half 2 ml (1/2 tsp) salt 475 g (16.75 oz) traditional ricotta cheese 175 ml (3/4 cup) maple syrup 1 vanilla bean, split in half lengthwise 1 l (4 cups) thinly sliced strawberries 125 ml (1/2 cup) slivered almonds, toasted

Preparation Rinse the wheat berries in a colander then drain and set aside. In medium saucepan, whisk together the sugar, one litre (four cups) of water, the cinnamon sticks and salt. Add the wheat berries to the saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium-low, cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until the wheat berries are tender, or about 90 minutes. When finished, drain any liquid and discard the cinnamon sticks. (Make-ahead: Refrigerate in airtight container for up to three days; tuck in cinnamon sticks to extend flavour.) Meanwhile, in a food processor, purée the ricotta until it’s completely smooth. Add 125 ml (1/2 cup) of maple syrup. Scrape the vanilla seeds from the pod and add into the cheese. Process until smooth. (Makeahead: Refrigerate in airtight container for up to three days.) In eight dessert or wine glasses, put 25 ml (two tbsp) of wheat berries, a heaping 50 ml (1/4 cup) of strawberries and a heaping 25 ml (two tbsp) of the whipped ricotta mixture. Repeat layering and then sprinkle with almonds. Drizzle with the remaining maple syrup before serving.

EMC news - It’s going to be an afternoon and evening of entertainment this Saturday, June 22 – all free. And besides the entertainment, there is going to be other attractions such as a classic car show, an arm wrestling demonstration, the presence of Star Wars Storm Troopers, a magic show and dance demonstrations. It’s all being held under the sponsorship of the Richmond Village Association (RVA) as a way of supporting the annual chicken barbecue being held by the Richmond Volunteer Firefighters on that same day at the same location. This means that you can enjoy an afternoon of entertainment, then have a barbecued chicken dinner available in the Dining Hall on the fairgrounds from the Firefighters and then cap off the day with more entertainment, all right there. This outdoor stage show and related activities will be happening on Saturday, June 22 from 1 p.m. to 9 p.m. at the Richmond fairgrounds, rain or shine. It’s meant as a family out-

ing, with city of Ottawa Rideau-Goulbourn ward councillor Scott Moffatt to officially open the event just before 1 p.m. It is meant to be a great family day, with two stages in operation, offering continuous entertainment – the main stage with sound and lighting systems for the major performers and a smaller platform stage where the attractions will range from stepdancing to a Kung Fu demonstration. Drinks and chips will be available on site thanks to the local 4H Club. And just who will be entertaining? Well, there’s going to be the Tycoons, a group comprised of Kevin Eamon, Francis Thibodeau, Mike Kelly and Cory M. Coons, which has opened and performed with national touring acts like April Wine, Glass Tiger, Prairie Oyster and Kim Mitchell. Now that means that they are good and you won’t want miss the group’s performance in Richmond. The Tycoons play some high energy rock ‘n roll music as well as sleek harmonies and contagious melodies fronted by vocalist Cory M. Coons who

is making quite a name independently, releasing a new CD “Here And Now� in late 2012 as well as a new single “Roses Need The Rain� last January. The Cory M. Coons Band will also be performing. Another group to perform at this Richmond event will be “Second Sight� with members Lee Keeley, Don Cright, Jean Lamirande and Dan Lafleur. This group writes and performs a lot of original music, reflecting the stylings of classic rock as well as being influenced by various blues, rhythm and blues and jazz greats. The “Richmond Ramblers� consisting of Dale Cole, Glen Trebble, John Estabrooks, Steve Nauss, Elly Wedge, Kristin Grzegorek and Randall Armstrong will also be performing. This group is known for its entertaining mix of classic country and Ottawa Valley bluegrass. And the alternative rock scene has not been forgotten. “The United Inmate� will be performing, providing alternative rock music from such artists as Weezer, The Who, Kings of Leon and Neon Trees. The schedule for this stage

entertainment is “The United Inmate� at 1 p.m.; Cory M. Coons Band at 2 p.m.; Richmond Ramblers at 3 p.m.; Second Sight at 6:30 p.m.; and Tycoons at 8 p.m. And while this musical entertainment will be the big attraction for this Richmond stage show event, there will be lots more to see and do. The Classic Car Club will be on hand, with 30 or more classic vehicles on display. There’s also going to be a magic show and dance demonstrations will be taking place. The Capital City Garrison – 501 Legion will be bringing a Star Wars atmosphere to the event, with their laser swords and Storm Trooper costumes. This will create a science fiction/fantasy environment thanks to their professional-grade costumes and props. If you enjoy Stars Wars, you will want to be there. This is all being done by the Richmond Village Association (RVA) as a way of providing a day of entertainment suitable to those of all ages. And best of all, there will be free admission thanks to the support of the Richmond business community for RVA activities.

Special to the News

EMC sports - Kyle Norris of Stittsville has seen his first Canadian Football League (CFL) action. Selected in the third round, 24th overall, by the Edmonton Eskimos in the recent CFL draft of university players, Kyle, a linebacker wearing sweater number 48 for the Eskimos, played in the team’s first exhibition game of the 2013 season last Friday. He played on the Eskimos’ special teams in the game against Saskatchewan Roughriders which was televised on TSN. Kyle was one of two players who once played for the Bell Warriors who were playing for the Eskimos in this game. The other was Scott Mitchell of Ottawa, a tackle who is now in his second year with the Eskimos after a career at Rice University in the United States. Kyle was one of six players from the St. Mary’s Huskies of Halifax who were chosen in this year’s CFL draft, the most of any university in the country. Kyle had played for St. Mary’s Huskies since graduating from South Carleton High School in Richmond where he played high school football for the South Carleton Storm from 2004 to 2008. He also played community football with the Bell Warriors from 2000 to 2006 and played The second annual Tyler Kerr Memorial Golf Tournament will be held on Saturday, June 22 at the Richmond Centennial Golf Club, hosted by the Richmond Munster Minor Hockey Association.

for the Myers Riders in 2006 and 2007. Bell Warriors Football Club president Paul Stewart of Richmond was ecstatic about two former Bell Warriors suiting up for the Edmonton Eskimos in this pre-season game last Friday. “It was a great game to watch and I dare say it was an unprecedented CFL event,” he said in reference to having two alumni of the same minor football team playing on the same CFL team. “This is a phenomenal piece of history for our Bell Warriors Football Club,” he said. “It truly reinforces our goals as an organization and is a great motivator for our many young future stars.” St. Mary’s Huskies head coach Perry Marchese, in commenting about Kyle when he was drafted by the Eskimos, noted that Kyle has “an incredible upside in the CFL” because of his combination of size and speed. Kyle is six foot, three inches tall and now weighs 232 pounds. In his early youth years in Stittsville, before he got hooked on football, Kyle played other sports such as community softball and ball for the junior Stittsville 56ers. He also was a goalie for the Goulbourn Rams hockey team.

Home security inspections Special to the News

EMC news - Home security inspections allow community members to make their homes less susceptible to criminal activity.

Residents learn how to make their homes safer based on proven crime prevention principles. At the request of a homeowner, Ottawa Police Service representa-

tives visit the home to provide a safety audit. This involves assessing ways to make a home safer from criminal activity. The audit is based on a checklist and participants are provided with a booklet that identifies safety improvements, provides crime preven-

tion tips and promotes other crime prevention initiatives offered by the Ottawa Police Service. To arrange a free home security inspection, contact your local Community Police Centre. Information about local Community Police Centres can be obtained by phoning 613-236-1222.
