Don’t fence me in, SVA says for dogs John Curry john.curry@metroland.com

EMC news - Stittsville is not going to the dogs – at least as far as the Stittsville Village Association (SVA) is concerned. At its executive meeting on Thursday, June 14, the SVA Board of Directors decided to take no action on an email request which SVA president Marilyn Jenkins had received seeking support for a fenced in dog run area in Stittsville. President Jenkins herself did not see why taxpayers should pay to establish a fenced in dog run in the area and to maintain it. She pointed out that there are several hundred public parks in the city of Ottawa where dogs are allowed to run off leash as long as they are under control. SVA director Laurie Scheer disputed that there was any need for a fenced in dog run in the community, at least one that is paid for by taxpayers. “There has to be a way for these people (dog owners) to pay for it,” she said. SVA vice-president Phil Sweetnam said that he believes that there are adequate facilities in the community now for dog owners. “I’d rather see a pathway for people than a pen for dogs,” he said. Mr. Sweetnam has recently been advocating for an extension of the walking path along Poole Creek east of Stittsville Main Street. City of Ottawa Stittsville ward councillor Shad Qadri, who was in attendance at the meeting, noted that in his view the dog pop-

ulation in Stittsville is definitely increasing. He cited his recently experience canvassing 73 homes in an area of Stittsville, noting that only about 12 of the homeowners visited had no dog. Councillor Qadri said that he is trying to work with landowners in the Fernbank lands where dog owners currently walk their dogs to try to retain some area dedicated for off leash dog activity. He said that he does not know if these efforts will be successful or not. He said that another proposal is to make Bell Park which is flanked by Stittsville Main Street, Fernbank Road and Cherry Drive into a fenced in dog run area. He suggested that it might cost $20,000 to $30,000 to fence in this park as a dog run area and he did not know if the city would go along with such a project. Councillor Qadri did admit that he was getting many requests for an area in the community which would be fenced and where dog could run unleashed. He said that an incident at M. Curry Park in the south end of Stittsville where a young child was hurt when jumped by a dog off leash is the type of concerns that he is also receiving related to dogs running off leash in parks. The Board of Directors decided not to get involved in this issue, with president Marilyn Jenkins to consider referring any inquiries about such a fenced in dog run area in the community to councillor Qadri.

Taking aim on history

Theo Mann, left, and Julia Mann, right, try out military uniforms and replica muskets from the War of 1812 era at the Goulbourn Museum’s bicentennial celebration for the War of 1812 last Sunday, June 17 at the Museum on Huntley Road at Stanley’s Corners.

War of 1812 celebration at Museum Special to the News

EMC news - The War of 1812 came to Goulbourn last Sunday. Two hundred years since it began, the War of 1812 was the focus of a day-long celebration at the Goulbourn Museum at Stanley’s Corners. Inside the Museum, visitors could learn through a new banner display all about the War of 1812 but also about some of the exceptional women who were part of the war such as Laura Secord, Maria Hill, Lydia Burke, Catherine Lyon, Agathe Nowlan and Lady Jane Vaughan. In addition, the Museum told the story of the voyage of the 100th Regiment of

14 0621.R0011463746

Foot to Canada from England, a story complete with shipwrecks and the recovery of marooned soldiers – a tale that you might think was right out of the movies. It was this 100th Regiment of Foot, after battles in the War of 1812, which provided many of the original settlers for the Richmond and Goulbourn area in 1818. But what was inside the Museum was only part of the celebration story at the Museum last Sunday. Two white tents were set up as a reenactment group in period uniforms were on hand to explain the life of the soldier 200 years ago. These re-enactors wore black uniforms with Keith Lindsey of

Munster, a re-enactor with the Canadian Fencibles Regiment, resplendent in his red uniform. In the shaded rear area behind the Museum, the re-enactors responded to questions about life and war for the soldiers of two centuries ago. There was even the firing of a musket. There was a children’s tent as well as a photo booth with props depicting these days gone by. There was a weaving display there as well as a BBQ raising funds for goalie training for Richmond Munster Minor Hockey Association players, a used book sale and a silent auction.

Stittsville Lions Club team in Relay For Life John Curry

all-night Relay For Life fundraising event of the Canadian Cancer Society. These teams, armed not only with their unique identifying names but also some with costumes such as the Pink Power team with its Hawaiian theme, saw their members take turns walking, running or strolling around the pathway around the lake at Walter Baker Park, starting in warm sunshine at 7 p.m. on Friday evening, June 15 and carrying on until 7 a.m. the

And then there’s Brenda’s Family of Angels, Team Triple Play, Pink Power, Faith Force, Jammie Joggers and We Shall Overcome, among others. All in all, over 25 teams with up to 15 members, assembled at Walter Baker Park in Kanata to participate in the

next morning. The event began with its traditional Survivors Lap in which cancer survivors took a victory lap around the pathway, this year all holding onto a “rope” of yellow t-shirts tied together. And as these survivors undertook their victory lap, each wearing a yellow survivors’ t-shirt, the name of each and the duration of their victory over cancer was announced, with the time ranging from just one month to 43 years. Among the teams taking part in this year’s Relay For Life was the Stittsville District Lions Club team which carried a banner identifying the team with Lions Club member Jack Burke preceding it holding the Lions flag. Stittsville District Lions Club member Don Zogalo participated in the survivors’ victory lap as he is a ten year survivor from his battle with cancer. This year’s Relay For Life event also included the always-inspiring luminary ceremony at 10 p.m. in which candle luminaries in honour of or in memory of those affected by cancer were lit in their places all around the pathway, providing a glow of hope in the descending darkness and giving inspiration to all that cancer can and will be beaten.

The Relay For Life is a major fundraising event for the Canadian Cancer Society, last year raising $55 million in communities across Canada. The funds are used by the Canadian Cancer Society to prevent cancer, to fund research about cancer, to inform and support Canadians living with cancer and to advocate for public policies to improve

the health of Canadians. Over 217 Relay For Life events are taking place in communities across Ontario this year. For this Relay For Life event at Walter Baker Park in Kanata last Friday/Saturday, teams set up tents around the grounds which served as headquarters for the team, where members could rest

while another member or member represented the team on the pathway, providing a continuous team presence in the relay. This annual Relay For Life event for the west end of the city of Ottawa began in Stittsville but relocated to Walter Baker Park in Kanata last year where it was held again this year.

Retiring sale at Art Mad shop EMC news - Stittsville is losing the Art Mad shop at the Stittsville Shopping Centre (Shoppers Drug Mart plaza) on Stittsville Main Street. The art supplies and art class shop is closing as owners John and Maggie Madden are retiring. This will mark the end of their five year run operating the shop as

they opened it on July 7 five years ago. Art Mad became well known not only for its art supplies and materials but also for its extensive offerings of art classes, especially for young people. Art Mad assembled a team of superb instructors who were popular with their students. Art Mad also held art shows featuring the work of the students in these classes.

John Madden, who himself is an accomplished artist, was instrumental in the creation of the Ottawa West Arts Association (owaa) which now has ongoing exhibitions of art by its members at the owaa gallery which has been established in the foyer area of the Goulbourn Recreation Complex on Shea Road just south of Abbott Street in Stittsville.

Youth hurt while ‘boarding’ Special to the News

EMC news - A 19-year old, going between consciousness and unconsciousness, was rushed to the Queensway Carleton Hospital with severe head injuries and road rash after a car-surfing type incident near Munster on a recently Sunday. It happened on Munster Road between Copeland Road and Franktown Road when the teen tumbled off his skateboard and crashed into the pavement as he was being towed by

a dirt bike. According to the biker, he was towing his friend on the skateboard at about 35 kilometers per hour for about 300 metres when the friend lost control and fell, smashing into the pavement and losing consciousness. As a result of this ‘boarding’ incident, the 22 year old biker was charged b the Ottawa Police Service with careless driving, unlawfully driving an off-road vehicle on a highway and driving with no insurance.

Public education ‘increasingly two-tier’: critics The third and final installment in a series that looks at school fundraising By Kristen Calis, Jessica Cunha and Rosie-Ann Grover

T

he best way to end the Ontario school system’s reliance on fundraising is to pour more money into public education, parents, teachers and critics say. “We are getting increasingly (to be) a two-tiered education system,” says NDP education critic Peter Tabuns. “That speaks to the need for adequate funding of the education system so parents don’t feel compelled to raise money.” Fundraising Fever, a Metroland Special Report, shows that concerns about overuse of fundraising – and the disparities it creates – are growing province-wide. Potential solutions also include a proposal by the advocacy group People for Education, which wants a provincial Equity in Education grant created to reduce inequities triggered by fundraising. School boards are pushing for an evaluation of provincial education funding to determine whether the current model is fair to all students. “The pressure to fundraise will only grow as boards try to meet the austerity measures of provincial governments,” says Catherine Fife, president of the Ontario Public School Boards’ Association. “We can’t go to our parent councils or school councils and keep asking for money.” There’s no question money is tight. The McGuinty government is starting consultations this fall to cut $10 million from school board administration budgets by 2013-14. Progressive Conservative education critic Lisa MacLeod says there is a lot of waste in the system and boards don’t always spend their funding appropriately. “They’ll claim they have no money, but are they managing the money effectively?” she asks. Some groups, including Social Planning Toronto, believe fundraising should be banned outright, except for raising dollars for external charities. “I’d rather not have it,” says Chris Ellis, who sits on four school councils in Ottawa. “I’d like for schools to not be able to raise funds for their own use so then parents in those affluent areas might become involved and speak up for greater funding for the education system.” The Coalition Against Public School Inequality suggests a cap on school fundraising. A percentage of each school’s profits above and beyond the limit would go into an equalization fund to help disadvantaged schools. But the Ontario Federation of Home and School Associations says a limit would be too restrictive. “We actually don’t want somebody to say you have to stop here. It’s up to the parents to decide how much they want to do or whether they’ve had enough,” says Lee Gow-

Tannis Toohey

The purchase of new playground equipment is a common fundraising goal for parents. ers, president of the group. Raising taxes would be a controversial solution, but “that’s how you address inequity, unpopularly through taxes,” says Annie Kidder, executive director of People for Education. “At some point, we have to bite the bullet and go, ‘That’s what taxes pay for.’ If we want our kids to have books in their libraries, we have to pay taxes.” Critics say the province should outline exactly what materials, activities and programs should be available – at no cost to parents – in all Ontario schools. Currently, it’s OK to raise funds for library books, gym equipment and musical instruments. “You need to start with the policy and the vision and laying out concretely what should be there in schools,” says Kidder. “Then you start talking about how you fund it to ensure it’s fair and equitable.” There is also interest in a boardwide mentorship program where successful fundraising schools partner with those that need a hand, helping to reduce the gap in funds raised. “To me, that’s how successful fundraising can be done, really sharing the best practices,” says parent Roxanne Horwitz, who sits on the St. Bernadette Catholic School council in Ajax Education foundations across the province continue to play a role, helping to reduce inequities in opportunity between well-off and disadvantaged schools. There is no severe pressure on schools to raise funds for things like field trips because many foundations will cover those costs.

“Having a central education foundation completely changes the landscape for children in a city,” says Jane Fulton, executive director of the Education Foundation of Ottawa. “We make sure that no student is left out.” Small businesses and large corporations continue to work to bridge the gap by providing donations and incentive programs. “That’s what we are counting on, businesses in the community,” says Luce Paradis, principal at Assumption Catholic School in Ottawa. The school is located in a low-income area and doesn’t usually host fundraisers. Without corporate donations, it wouldn’t be able to reach its goal of $50,000 for a new play structure. “We have to outsource a little bit.” The Campbell’s Labels For Education program, for example, invites schools to collect labels from Campbell’s products, such as soup cans and Goldfish crackers, and redeem them for educational resources from books to gym equipment. A number of other companies, such as Chapters, Boston Pizza and McDonald’s, host special events that encourage parents to purchase their products and then give a portion of sales back to local schools. Others, such as the Elementary Teachers’ Federation of Ontario, believe businesses don’t belong in public schools. “It’s a tempting road because it’s a quick fix to the funding situation,” says Kawartha Pine Ridge ETFO president David Wing. “Children are already bombarded enough with commercial messages.”

Three Thursday evening concerts at Village Square Park in August John Curry john.curry@metroland.com

EMC news - Village Square Park in the heart of Stittsville will be ďŹ lled with music again this coming August.

Again this year, there will be three concerts, happening on consecutive Thursdays beginning on Thursday, Aug. 2. That’s when Catalyst, a rock ‘n roll

band from the West Carleton area, will take to the stage for the 7 p.m. concert. Thursday, Aug. 9 will see Eddy and the Stingrays return to the Village Square stage, following up on last year’s concert which ďŹ lled the park with rock ‘n roll fans. The three-concert series will wrap up on Thursday, Aug. 16 when Captain Fantastic, an Elton John cover band, will perform. Those planning to attend any or all of these concerts are reminded to take along

a lawn chair or blanket for seating. Concert-goers are also reminded that the concerts will go ahead, rain or shine. These 7 p.m. concerts will be preceded by a cash BBQ.

East-end bridge is not just about us

N

ow is not the time for the city to turn its back on the development of an east-end bridge between Ottawa and Gatineau. Perhaps when the idea was first floated decades ago, it could have been rubbished as some sort of whimsical pipe dream. But now, when the population of the OttawaGatineau region is only a hair below 1.25 million, is not the time to balk at such a move. It is important to remem-

ber the stated purpose of building a new bridge is not narrow. It is conceived as, among other things, a way to improve the lives of those who regularly cross the Ottawa River by improving transportation links, take heavy vehicle traffic out of Ottawa’s downtown core and to boost economic development in the National Capital Region. The position taken by members of several east end communities, and surpris-

ingly by Mayor Jim Watson, that we should not consider an east-end interprovincial link at all simply fails to address the needs of this region. Will the lives of those crossing the river be improved by extending Ottawa light rail further east? Will, by the same token, trucks be compelled to no longer clog King Edward Avenue if Orleans commuters have a rail link to the downtown core? Will the economic needs of those living on the north bank

of the river be served by such narrow views? Residents in Ottawa’s east end need to remember that this project does not exist only to make their lives miserable. It is a regional project and must serve the needs of the region, which means proving to be a benefit to not just Ottawa and Gatineau, but Ontario, Quebec and the National Capital Commission. This is not to suggest this is a simple, easy task. That’s why after many years of dis-

cussion and planning, there’s still no bridge. There will never be a perfect location for the bridge that makes absolutely everyone happy. But that’s the nature of significant, city building projects. Just look at Lansdowne Park or light rail. Both have elicited strong reactions from a variety of constituencies about how best to proceed. But in neither case is doing nothing a real option. Does this mean there’s no

room for discussion about where to put the bridge? Of course not. Perhaps there are other options to consider outside the presently considered Kettle Island, Lower Duck Island and McLaurin Bay corridors. If a strong case can be made to all the relevant stakeholders, perhaps something new would be considered. But it is long past time when we can simply put our heads in the sand and not build a bridge. The future of all those who live in the National Capital Region is too important to stand alone at a time when we should be moving forward together.

Going bonkers over plastic bag bans CHARLES GORDON Funny Town

I

like the way a humble plastic bag can inspire a mighty ideological battle, with both sides marshalling lofty rhetoric and deeply philosophical theories on the subject. Is there anything more humble than a plastic bag? You acquire it almost by accident, you discard it without a second thought. You put garbage in it, not to mention dog poop. It is not a beloved household item. It is unlovable. And yet, a deep love has been professed for it by those who see the plastic bag as a symbol of society’s need to fight intrusive government. Toronto city council sparked all this by passing a motion banning plastic bags. On the surface, this is not all that outrageous. Other societies, including Third World nations, have taken similar action, and even here plastic bag use has been on the decline with people turning to cloth bags rather than pay for plastic bags in grocery stores. But Toronto council’s action has brought out those who deplore the state getting into their private behaviour and see the plastic bag ban as the thin edge of the wedge – the fat end of the wedge being unclear at the moment. Perhaps they fear that our city councils will begin banning vacuum cleaners or spray-on starch. Amidst all these grand arguments we have to remember: it’s only a plastic bag. Will we really miss it? Some of the opposition’s arguments need to be examined. Will more trees die as consumers and retailers are forced to switch to paper? That’s worth a look. For that matter, maybe the increased use of cloth bags threatens the world’s cloth supply.

You can argue these and other theories forever, but the notion that a ban on plastic bags won’t work is probably wrong. It rests on the assumption that people are incapable of change. But we’re not. We switched to metric, to unleaded gas. We adopted the designated driver. And, in the most relevant comparison, we have adjusted to smoking bans. Who could have conceived of a smoking ban three decades ago, when there were ashtrays in offices, smoking in stores, in movie theatres, when more than 40 per cent of adults smoked. Today, the smoking rate is half of that, and almost all public places are smoke-free. Perhaps more significantly, most private places are smoke-free too, as even the most diehard smokers go outside rather than light up in someone’s home. If we can do all that, we can do without plastic bags too. The consequences of not doing so can be seen in some countries where litter control is less strict than it is here. Plastic bags hang from the trees and bushes, cling to fences like some kind of filmy flower. And the results of a plastic bag ban can be seen in other countries, such as Rwanda, where you cannot even bring plastic bags into the country. The trees, bushes and fences are clear, and there doesn’t seem to be any public agitation for plastic bags to return. Either taxes or outright bans are in place in many countries and cities around the world with no apparent ill effects. So that leaves the main argument against banning plastic bags as the philosophical one – that governments shouldn’t be in the business of banning stuff. As we have seen, banning stuff has mixed results. Prohibition didn’t work all that well. On the other hand, banning people from driving 150 kilometres per hour on city streets is a pretty good thing. For sure, people will miss having plastic bags as garbage bin liners, perhaps the role they were put on Earth to fulfill. But hey, we’re a resourceful people. If we can put a man on the moon, surely we can figure something out.

Complete Hockey Development Centre John Curry

john.curry@metroland.com

EMC sports - The name says it all: Complete Hockey Development Centre. Located at 145 Iber Road in Stittsville, this new centre which bills itself as a one-of-a-kind 12,000 square foot training facility is a one stop shop for all hockey training essentials including on ice training, dry land training, therapy and recovery, cutting edge sports vision training, a hockey equipment retail outlet geared to goalies and more, all located under one roof. It’s a “complete” facility, to be sure. Perhaps unique anywhere, this new Complete Hockey Development Centre, which held its grand opening last Saturday, June 16, is the brainchild and labour of love of owner Charles McTavish. It all evolved from his business Complete Goalie Development which he has run for the past ten years. He himself had been a goalie whose career ended when he was 20 years old due to a bad hip. He had already gotten into coaching a few years earlier and began his Complete Goaltending Development program. This is a goalie development program in which each goalie is assessed and begins training at the level that will be most beneficial to success. This includes maintaining body control, puck focus and, literally “stop at nothing to stop everything.” Over the years Charles has worked with Hockey Canada, the Ottawa Senators rookie development camp, the Smiths Falls Bears junior team and the Ottawa University GeeGee’s

team. So he has developed respect in the hockey community. But his problem was in obtaining ice on a consistent basis so that he could run his Complete Goaltending Development programs with some certainty and regularity. That’s when he decided to follow his dream to design and open a unique training facility which would include an ice surface, giving him ready access to ice time. The challenge was finding a building which could accommodate what he had in mind. Because of the ice surface, it had to be a structure that had wide span beams with no internal support posts. Well, with the help of his mother, Mary McTavish, a real estate agent whose picture and advertisement now graces a prominent spot on the rink boards of the ice surface at the Complete Hockey Development Centre (how’s that for thanking her in a unique way!), Charles found this Iber Road building and when his offer was accepted, it was full steam ahead. He was happy with the location, on Iber Road almost within the shadow of Scotiabank Place and easily accessible from the area via highway 417 and Huntmar Drive. “We have all the best sports facilities under one roof,” says Charles. The ice surface, which occupies the rear part of the building, can accommodate not only his goalie instruction sessions (there are 12 goalie creases painted on the ice surface) but also is great for stickhandling and skill development for players. In addition, it is home to the west end’s only three-on-three hockey league.

Braeside Home Furnishings

Charles points out that it’s great for such three-on-three play since, because of the rink’s size, players are always near the play. He notes that there is a lot of stopping and starting by the players, as they are active all the time. There is no space for a player to glide around the ice. Finding and obtaining the building was only the first part of Charles’ challenge to achieve his vision. Every wall in the facility except for one existing wall which had separated the front office/display area from the rear open area had to be built by Charles. And while the facility has been in operation for a number of months, it was always a work in progress and all of the finishing touches were only really in place for last Saturday’s grand opening. But Charles praises all those who not only showed great patience and support in putting up with the months of construction at the facility but also is thankful for the amazing support which so many showed over these months. One person, for instance, showed up regularly in his off-hours to help out with whatever needed to be done. And so just what is housed at this Complete Hockey Development Centre, besides Charles’ own Complete Goaltending Development business. There’s Complete Player Development which offers on-ice hockey instruction and development for players at every level from beginner to major junior. It is lead by John Ostapyk, a former player at Dartmouth College. Then there’s Complete Athlet-

ics which specializes in hockey and sport specific training and personal training and is home to CrossFit 613, a core strength and conditioning program. The facility includes a fully equipped gym with state of the art equipment and qualified, professional staff who can assess fitness, nutrition and wellness. Foot speed and explosive movement are all part of what promises to be a unique gym experience for hockey players. But there’s more. West Physio has a clinic at the facility where not only manual therapy but also treatment and rehabilitation services are available. Experienced and licensed physiotherapists, registered massage therapists and other specialists are all available through West Physio. Dynamic Edge sports vision training is also at the Complete Hockey Development Centre. It provides sports vision training to athletes looking to gain a competitive edge by increasing eye-hand coordination, visual reaction time and focus. Dynamic Edge uses a system called the Sensory Motion Integration Technique to train athletes to process greater amounts of visual information faster and more accurately so that their physical reactions are faster and more accurate than without the training. On the retail side, the Complete Hockey Development Centre is home to the newly-named “The Goal Line,” an on-site retail outlet specializing in goaltending equipment for youth and customized orders for elite goalies. The presence of “The Goal Line,”

which is associated with Play It Again Sports, is enhanced by Unsung Hero Apparel, which is the official sponsor of the lounge at the Complete Hockey Development Centre. Unsung Hero Apparel emphasizes a “No Quit, All Hustle Attitude,” an outlook that is in keeping with the overall atmosphere at the Centre. The actual apparel can be purchased online. Having all these various services under one roof is meant to allow them all to work cooperatively to ensure that the athlete is the first priority. “The whole idea is we all work cohesively together,” Charles says. There’s still more at the Complete Hockey Development Centre, things that give it an overall atmosphere that is just as important in Charles’ vision as is the variety of services available under the one roof. Charles says that he wanted the facility to feel not like just any rink but more like a dressing room where everyone feels like part of a family, with staff and coaches familiar to everyone. This family atmosphere is enhanced by such things as a Shutout Wall, a garage door replica which goalies can sign when they record a shutout. Every year there will be a new Shutout Wall. Charles also has plans to develop a Wall of Fame along a corridor leading to the ice surface. Players who have developed their skills and have advanced to higher levels such as Junior A or NCAA hockey will be included in this Wall of Fame. See NEW, page 11

New facility is Charles McTavish’s dream From COMPLETE, page 10

The Complete Hockey Development Centre also has a video room where players and coaches can watch their onice session afterwards thanks to two cameras looking over the rink. In addition, there is going to be a feed from these rink cameras to the lounge area where parents and friends will be able to sit in comfort and watch what is going on on the ice surface. There is also a coaches’ room where the coaches can do their planning. And don’t forget a laundry room. The lounge area features a barn board interior, a leather couch, internet access and pedestal tables for snacks. Oh, did we mention, there is also a wall full of TV screens, showing not only what is going on at the Centre’s rink but also allowing for viewing of televised hockey games. “I wanted it to be like your dad’s basement,” Charles says about his hope for this lounge area, hoping that it becomes a place where parents, friends and players like to simply hang out. “It is a dream come true for sure,” Charles says about this whole Complete Hockey Development Centre facility. And it was a dream seen by hundreds at the facility’s grand opening last Saturday.

The whole parking lot along the side of the building was blocked off and filled with a display of goalie equipment

for sale, a Do It For Daron publicity table and more. The front yard featured a BBQ by The Glen Scottish Restaurant

and the Kichesippi Beer Co.’s new beer bike display. The Complete Hockey Development Centre at 145 Iber

Road in Stittsville can be contacted at 613-831-7867or via email at info@cgdgoalies. com

Artist Mary Anne Robblee uses both canvas and clay John Curry john.curry@metroland.com

John Curry photo

Mary Anne Robblee displays some of her pottery, pieces of which are now on exhibit in the display case at the ArtSpace area at the Stittsville branch of the Ottawa Public Library.

EMC news - Mary Anne Robblee works with both canvas and clay. That’s because she is both a painter and a potter. And examples of both are on display this month at the ArtSpace wall and display area at the Stittsville branch of the Ottawa Public Library. Six of her large 30 inch by 30 inch paintings are on display on the wall while the display cabinet contains a collection of some of her pottery work. Mary Anne, who lives in Constance Bay, has been an artist since the early 1970’s but only added pottery to her artistic endeavours in 2003, becoming immediately hooked on working with clay. She finds that both her art

and her pottery are creative outlets that balance her work as a social scientist. A prolific and engaged artist, she draws energy and also joy from her artistic expressions. She sees the overlaps in these two art forms as significant complimentary pursuits that draw upon common theories and techniques in design and composition, among other things. Mary Anne started drawing and painting as a child, studying art history and taking art classes throughout her high school years. Over the years, she has studied art and taken art courses at a number of institutions and settings, most notably the Ontario College of Art, Lakehead University, Ottawa University, the Ottawa School of Art and, more recently, mixed media and abstract paintings at the Nepean Visual Arts Centre and Wallack’s in Bells Corners. Her mixed media paintings are largely acrylic with varied textures, materials and techniques to enhance her abstract expressions. She uses colour, texture and mark making to create a unique visual language to her paintings. Mary Anne works in many

media such as acrylic, oil, watercolour, printmaking, textile and clay. She started working in pottery in 2003 at a studio in West Carleton which she continues to work. She feels that her pottery is a natural extension of her artistic desire to explore and experiment with design and function. She uses hand building techniques to create her pottery while using glazes that are food safe to ensure that her pottery pieces can be used for everyday purposes. Her glazing techniques often mirror her love of abstract expression. Mary Anne is a member of the Ottawa Mixed Media Artists and Arts Ottawa East. She has won a number of awards for her art in juried art shows in the area and both her art and her pottery can be found in private collections across Canada, the United States and Europe. Mary Anne Robblee’s art and pottery can be found on display in the ArtSpace area in the Stittsville branch of the Ottawa Public Library where they will be until the end of June. The ArtSpace area is accessible whenever the library is open.

Canada Day shaping up John Curry john.curry@metroland.com

EMC news - Stittsville’s Canada Day celebrations are rounding into shape. Theresa Qadri, who is heading the planning of the day for the Stittsville Village Association (SVA), reported at the SVA’s executive meeting on Thursday, June 14 that just about everything is ready to go for the celebrations on Sunday, July 1. There’s a full schedule of entertainment lined up, starting at 3:30 p.m. and running through to the gala fireworks display around 9:45 p.m. The entertainment will include a magician, the Stittsville Concert Band, high-

land dancers, a couple of other bands, a puppeteer, the Chad Wolfe Dancers and Stittsville’s own entertainers Kyle and Joel Curry. Carleton-Mississippi Mills MP the Hon. Gordon O’Connor has confirmed his attendance at the 3 p.m. opening ceremony. City of Ottawa Stittsville ward councillor Shad Qadri will also be in attendance. Other dignitaries who will be invited include city of Ottawa mayor Jim Watson and Carleton-Mississippi Mills MPP Jack MacLaren. It was reported that the SVA is await-

ing receipt of some of the larger corporate donations which have been pledged for the event. But other than that and the need to arrange for the delivery of a generator to the site, things appear to be in order. “Everything’s looking good,” said Ms. Qadri at the SVA meeting. The Canada Day celebrations in Stittsville will once again this year be held at the front of Sacred Heart High School. This was where the celebrations were held last year after the former site on the south side of the Goulbourn Recreation Complex was unavailable due to construction of the new second ice pad.

War of 1812 descendants lay wreaths at cenotaph John Curry john.curry@metroland.com

EMC news - The Richmond Legion paid tribute to those involved in the War of 1812 at a commemorative service at the cenotaph at Memorial Park in Richmond last Sunday, June 17.

Taking part in the ceremony as they laid two of the four wreaths placed at the foot of the cenotaph during the 18 minute ceremony were two descendants of War of 1812 veterans. Christopher Moffatt, standing in for his brother, city of

Ottawa Rideau-Goulbourn ward councillor Scott Moffatt in laying a wreath on behalf of the city, is, like his brother, a descendent of Lt. Col. Joseph Fortune who served with the Prescott County Militia during the War of 1812 and who in 1818 conducted the original

survey of Richmond. Linda Prescott, who laid a wreath in memory of fallen comrades, is a descendant of Sgt. William Vaughan who served in the 100th Regiment of Foot during the War of 1812 and who was one of the original settlers of Richmond. Another descendant of a War of 1812 veteran, Sheldon Spearman, had been scheduled to offer the Pledge of Remembrance at the service but he was sick and unable to attend. Richmond Legion past president Hilda Moore filled in for him. Sheldon Spearman is a

descendant of John Spearman, a member of the 100th Regiment of Foot during the War of 1812 and one of the original settlers of Richmond. Other wreaths laid in the ceremony were a wreath on behalf of the Richmond Legion by president Brian Goss and a wreath on behalf of the Stittsville Legion by president Norm Fortin. About 20 people were in attendance at the service which took place in sunny, warm weather, with poppies in evidence on everyone’s lapel. After the Legion colour party with flagbearers Pat

Sullivan and Edna Monahan marched onto the square in front of the cenotaph, the service proceeded with an opening prayer led by Deacon Louis Seward of St. Philip’s Catholic Church in Richmond. South Carleton High School student Kshamina Ghelani played The Last Post and Reveille on the trumpet while bagpiper Eric Booth played the Silence and Lament. Richmond Legion members George Murphy and Jim Becking escorted those laying the wreaths when they approached the cenotaph.

Single vehicle rollover on Eagleson EMC news - Ottawa Fire Service firefighters from the Richmond station rushed to a single vehicle rollover along Eagleson Road just after midnight last Friday/Saturday, June 15/16. The emergency call was received just 23 minutes after midnight following the report of a vehicle in a ditch along Eagleson Road near Rushmore Road south of Fallowfield Road. Upon arrival at the scene, the firefighters immediately initiated extrication procedures to remove the female driver from the vehicle. Extrication was completed at 36 minutes after

midnight, with firefighters then assisting Ottawa Paramedic Service personnel with patient care. The paramedics had assisted in the extrication and then treated the woman, believed to be in her early 30’s, with advanced life support at the scene. The woman was unconscious as a result of major trauma to the head. Her vital signs disappeared as she was being taken enroute to the hospital. As a result of this incident, the Ottawa Police Service closed Eagleson Road in both directions between Rushmore Road and Brownlee Road to permit for investigation.

Parking lot becomes fun, people-place for carnival Special to the News

EMC news - The Holy Spirit Parish parking lot became a fun, people-place on Wednesday, June 13 when it served as the site again this year of the Guardian Angels Catholic School carnival. With blue skies overhead and sunny, warm weather prevailing, the carnival attracted hundreds of parents and youngsters where they enjoyed an assortment of games, a BBQ, activities such as an inflated bounce, a dunk tank and a fire truck and Guardian Angels very own “GUA’s Got Talent” stage show. Both the dunk tank, which saw well-known personalities like Sacred Heart High School vice-principal Geoff Edwards taking turns sitting above the watery tank, waiting for that dreaded accurate ball toss which sent them plunging into the water below, and the talent show attracted consistent, sizeable crowds. And what a talent show it was, with about 50 performances, some solo performances like Grace Mulvihill’s magician act and others involving two or more students, usually dancing or singing. But it was not all singing or dancing. There was a comedian, a pianist, a drummer, pogo stick bouncers, a karate demonstration, a juggler, a soccer ball foot magician, and

even a pair of scientists with white coats and giant wire-rimmed glasses, trying to make a volcano erupt. Students ranging from kindergarten through grade six were among the performers. But while the dunk tank and talent show were both appealing, there was lots more to see and do at this carnival. Firefighters were on hand with the Ladder 81 fire truck from the Stittsville fire hall, giving youngsters an opportunity to climb up into the cab of the truck and be a firefighter for a minute. Sandra Edwards from the Dandelion Kids consignment shop in Stittsville was there with her bubble-making pool. And talk about games – there was a golf putting game, a bowling game, a ring toss game, a “flipping frogs” game, a milk jug toss game, a bean bag toss game, a hockey goalie shooting game and a jelly bean guess game. There was face painting and a lollipop tree game. Five Ottawa Police Service policemen and their motorcycles were on hand, with youngsters able to sit on the motorcycles and feel what it’s like to be a motorcycle policeman. There was Kiddie Land, a special area with games and activities for the younger set. And for the older, adult set, there was the ever popular silent

auction, with over 40 items up for grabs, ranging from gift certificates to local businesses to gift baskets to a signed Anaheim Ducks jersey donated by Brad Lauer. The Sacred Heart Huskies mascot was parading around the site and Guardian Angels’ grade six graduates were noticeable in their blue t-shirts identifying them as members of the class of 2012. With the perfect weather, the spacious site, the assortment of games and activities and the entertainment both from the talent show and the dunk tank, this Guardian Angels Carnival will be memorable for many and it should do well from a fundraising perspective. Last year’s carnival raised over $7,000 for the school.

EMC news - White was the colour of the day at Cavanagh Construction’s Henderson Quarry on Jinkinson Road west of Stittsville on Thursday, June 14. That’s not only because the quarry now boasts three gleaming white silos trimmed with green, the centerpieces of Cavanagh Construction’s new asphalt plant that can been seen by motorists passing by on the adjacent highway seven but also because a giant white tent had been set up in the quarry where dignitaries, contractors and business associates gathered for a celebration to mark the official opening of the asphalt plant. Sunny, blue skies and warm weather prevailed for the 5 p.m. grand opening event which saw a couple hundred people gather in the big tent.

EROSION ON DALEWOOD PATHWAY

Asphalt plant at Henderson Quarry From WHITE, page 22

And adding to the firm’s offerings, sitting like a giant rocket on a launch pad, launching, as it were, Cavanagh Construction into another dimension of its business, was the permanent white structure in this Henderson Quarry, the new state-of-the-art asphalt plant. With Canadian, Ontario and Cavanagh flags fluttering at the top of the three 300-tonne silos, this new asphalt plant is a giant heat machine that uses electricity and soon natural gas as fuel to transform raw materials into the asphalt used on roads, parking lots and driveways. And Cavanagh Construction can use the plant’s products in

a big way. Cavanagh Construction equipment is not only a familiar scene at many development sites in the area but the firm recently has grabbed two of the provincial government’s five largest highway construction contracts. Under the white “big top,” there was plenty of chatter as uniformed servers circulated through the crowd, offering hors d’oeuvres and other refreshments. Tom Cavanagh of Cavanagh Construction also circulated through the crowd, most of whom were standing and chatting, welcoming them all and sharing a few words and stories. Among those attending the event were Carleton-Mississippi Mills MPP Jack MacLaren and Ottawa city councillors Scott Moffatt, Marianne Wilkinson and Allan Hubley.

On Tuesday June 12th, work started by the developer on the request of the City to repair the erosion problem occurring on the Dalewood pathway off of Westridge. The stability issue of this pathway has been ongoing for the last two years, with the residents raising concerns about the pathway washing out in certain sections. A year ago, the City’s Forestry Department got involved as numerous trees were identified as safety concerns because of their instability. The trees had either fallen over the pathway or were leaning on other trees, posing both a present and potential future risk to pathway users. Realizing the safety concern, the Forestry Department identified some trees with a painted X that needed to be removed. Along with the removal of the trees, the pathway also needed to be reconstructed in order to reinforce the side of the pathway closest to the protected area. Based on the intensity of the project and to ensure that there is enough room to complete the pathway reconstruction, it was necessary to clear both trees and under-shrub approximately 3-5 meters along the side of the protected area. In the areas with the steepest grade/slope, the reconstruction will include using some rocks to stabilize the side while in sections with a lesser grade/slope the contractor will use smaller rocks embedded into the side of the pathway. Going forward, the City assumes responsibility in approximately one years’ time. Forestry Department staff and I have discussed the possibility of having some additional planting of trees at that time. These new trees, space permitting, will be planted on the protected area side and/or along the rear property lines of existing homes on Dalewood. Some residents that raised the issue of safety and the stability of the pathway were aware of work to be carried out. Maple Grove Mattamy Development Work has started on the next portion of the Mattamy Fairwinds Subdivision on Maple Grove Road. The developments for 1560, 1620 and 1636 Maple Grove Road can be located on the map (see next page). This is a continuation of work for approximately 1200 to 1400 dwelling units which will consist of single detached, townhouses and multiple unit (stacked) dwellings. For more information please contact my office or visit http://www.shadqadri.com/plan_res.htm.

8 HOBIN STREET DEVELOPMENT On Thursday June 7th, a public meeting took place to discuss the development slated for 8 Hobin Street. The landowner of 8 Hobin Street has provided a revised proposal for development at this site. The new proposal, presented at this meeting, involves 5 units compared to the original 7 proposed units that was brought forward to the community last fall. This plan now includes 2 semi-detached units (4 units in total) and one single unit. All of the units will be facing Hobin Street and will be two stories at approximately 8 meters in height. Most residents at the meeting liked the idea of having 4 single units that are 2 stories high instead of 5 units. I would like to hear the community’s thoughts on this idea before taking these thoughts to the developer. If you wish to comment on this please contact my office at 613-580-2476 or by email at shad.qadri@ottawa.ca.

REVISED LAUNCH OF PRESTO CARD TO BE DETERMINED SHORTLY

By Gabriel Mayost There is a stigma associated with Alzheimer’s disease that often prevents open discussion of the symptoms, but people like John Wilson are doing what they can to help change that. Wilson, and inhabitant of Renfrew, has dealt extensively with Alzheimer’s disease. Seven years ago, his father was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease, and now, his mother has early onset symptoms of the disease. While people sometimes become forgetful as they age, in his father’s case, the symptoms were clear. “He was always forgetting names, which was normal,” say Wilson, “but forgetting things, like something he was supposed to pick up. And there were some driving issues, where he’d be somewhere with my mom and he’d go home without her.” Wilson and his family confronted the situation by seeking out help. “We knew to get in touch with our doctor to get a referral for a gerontologist. We went through that waiting and talking with a couple

of different doctors just to try to get an actual diagnosis and find out if there was anything that could be done. “From there on, finding out what we can about Alzheimer’s disease through the Alzheimer Society.” Wilson credits the Alzheimer Society for providing information on the disease, available services, and what to expect. Wilson and his sister attended various seminars offered by the Alzheimer Society’s offices in Pembroke, Arnprior, and Ottawa. Wilson has since become involved with the Alzheimer Society. He was the second place winner in its Walk for Memories fundraising campaign for the last two years, and has arranged for speakers to address his community in order to spread awareness of the dementia services available in Ottawa and Renfrew County. “I guess the big thing is for people to realize that there is support and you don’t have to go through it alone,” he says. “Quite often, there are often only two family members or less

to deal with the load, and you end up with caregiver burnout.” Wilson has the following advice for those who are concerned about a family member experiencing memory loss: “Seek help as soon as you can. If the diagnosis is Alzheimer’s disease, there are medications that are available that can slow symptoms. And being involved with the Alzheimer Society makes you aware of what is available and what you can do.” John Wilson will be providing comments at the Alzheimer Society’s Annual General Meeting on June 26th at Hampton Inn Ottawa. Dr. Marcus Richards from University College London, UK, is the event’s featured speaker on memory loss and dementia with the focus on the aging brain and its consequences for health and function. Cost is $50 per person (includes a healthy lunch). To register or for more information, visit www.alzheimer.ca/ottawa or call 613-523-4004 in Ottawa or 1-888-411-2067 in Renfrew County. Gabriel Mayost is a volunteer at the Alzheimer Society of Ottawa and Renfrew County and a first year journalism student at Carleton University.

Price increases to OC Transpo fares and bus passes planned for July 1st will be delayed to coincide with the revised launch of the Presto smart card payment system. The city’s transit commission delayed the launch of Presto in order to work out technological bugs that have shown up during testing, particularly getting the reading terminals to confirm the ‘tap’ of the pay cards. PRESTO and the City of Ottawa announced earlier this week that the June 10th, 2012 distribution of 200,000 free PRESTO cards will also be delayed to address and resolve issues. As a result, the PRESTO Family and Friends Pilot will be extended and expanded to include 1,000 additional participants. The extended pilot will allow PRESTO to conduct further testing of the system, which is required to ensure a smooth rollout to customers. OC Transpo’s goal is to provide the best service for transit users. As the PRESTO card is implemented in Ottawa, OC Transpo’s customers remain a top priority. In July, OC Transpo customers will continue to use regular paper bus passes, tickets or cash as they have in the past. Regular updates will be provided to customers in the weeks to come. For more information please visit: https://www.prestocard.ca/en/ or http://www.octranspo1.com/tickets-and-passes/ presto_-_the_smart_new_way_to_go.

EMC news - Cutting some trees to repair an erosion problem along a pathway in the Traditions subdivision at the south end of Stittsville resulted in concerns about the tree cutting by some adjacent residents. But city of Ottawa Stittsville ward councillor Shad Qadri explains that these actions were necessary to ďŹ x up an area of the pathway behind homes on Dalewood Crescent just north of West Ridge Drive. It all goes back at least two years during which the stonedust pathway has washed out three times, leaving ruts dangerous to pathway users. In addition, some of the trees cut were leaning over the pathway or leaning on another tree, creating a dangerous situation. City of Ottawa forestry personnel identiďŹ ed the trees that needed to be removed and early last week the subdivision developer employed a contractor to remove the identiďŹ ed trees and reconstruct the pathway in this area to reinforce it and prevent future washouts. To ensure that there was enough room to allow for the pathway reconstruction in this area, up to ďŹ ve metres of trees had to be removed. In the area with the steepest slop, the reconstruction includes using rocks to stabilize the grade. In areas where this slope is less, smaller rocks are embedded into the side of the pathway. City of Ottawa forestry personnel were called to the scene to ensure that the tree removal and restoration work was being done as planned. Councillor Qadri says that when the city eventually assumes responsibility for the subdivision from the developer, the city may plant some additional trees in this area at that time.

Over $24,000 to fight cancer John Curry john.curry@metroland.com

EMC news - Robert Smith of Stittsville has returned home from a challenging but successful “Enbridge Ride To Conquer Cancer.” The Enbridge Ride to Conquer Cancer is an annual two-day team bike ride from Toronto to Niagara Falls, raising funds to support the work of the Campbell Family Cancer Research Institute at the Princess Margaret Hospital in Toronto, one of the top cancer research centres in the world. The Ride took place on Saturday, June 9 and Sunday, June 10 this year, with Rob and his six teammates raising over $24,000 as a team. This formed part of the $18.1 million which the ride raised in total. The first day of the ride, which saw the riders pedal from downtown Toronto through Mississauga, Halton Hills and the Niagara

Escarpment before ending at Hamilton, saw heavy rains and wind, making for challenging cycling conditions. Sunday, June 10, on the other hand, featured high heat and humidity, a different kind of challenge as the cyclists went from Hamilton to the finish line at Niagara Falls. This was the fifth year that Rob, 51, who works in the development industry in Ottawa, participated in this Enbridge Ride to Conquer Cancer. This year the team on which he competed wore custom-made jerseys identifying the team as Team Aline. This was in memory of a close friend who underwent three rounds of cancer treatments. Rob also rode in memory of an aunt and uncle who died from cancer. Rob wishes to thank all those who supported his cycling effort this year. He plans to continue this personal quest to raise awareness in the fight against cancer again next year.

Henry V at Grove John Curry

john.curry@metroland.com

EMC news - Shakespeare’s Henry V will be performed under the tall pines at Alexander Grove park in Stittsville on Wednesday, July 4. That’s when A Company of Fools, Ottawa’s Shakespearean acting troupe founded in 1990, will be returning to Stittsville for another of its torchlight Shakespearean productions, this time the play Henry V. This will be one stop on a summer-long tour of parks across the city of Ottawa, beginning on Monday, July 2 and extending through Saturday, Aug. 18. The performance at Alexander Grove park in Stittsville will begin on Wednesday, July 4 at 7 p.m. sharp, running 90 minutes with no intermission. There are no tickets required as admission is on a “pass-the-hat-and-pay-whatyou-can” basis with $15 being a suggested but not mandatory donation. Those planning to attend are reminded to take along a blanket or lawn chair for seating. In addition, bug spray to deter any unwanted pests is also recommended. But most importantly, plan to take along a hearty sense of fun because that is what you will experience, a Shakespearean play done in a way that is irreverent and full of madcap fun, a recipe that has been the trademark of A Company of Fools over the years. This production of Shakespeare’s Henry V that will be performed in Stittsville on Wednesday, July 4 is described as being part “Saving Private Ryan” and part “Before Sunrise,” being a tale of patriotism and romance that is really just a “Boy Meets Girl” story, albeit with a slight twist in who plays what. The role of Henry V will be played by Margo MacDonald, who has been involved with A Company of Fools” since its beginning in 1990 and who is really looking forward to playing this role of Henry V, calling it the role of a lifetime. But the cross-gender casting does not end with Margo MacDonald and her role as Henry V. Simon Bradshaw will be playing the role of “the girl,”

Katherine. But he, like Margo, is looking forward to this cross-gender role. The show itself will take the audience on a wild rollercoaster ride fuelled by pride and adrenaline, going from the royal castles of England to the

bleak battlefields of France. But don’t think that it will be somber and serious. Expect all the madcap fun that A Company of Fools has provided to its audiences over the years because that is what you will be getting.

Lawn bowling is fun! John Curry john.curry@metroland.com

John Curry photo

Rick Nolan delivers a bowl at the Goulbourn Lawn Bowling Club’s green at Stanley’s Corners just south of Stittsville.

EMC sports - Three members of the Goulbourn Lawn Bowling Club. Three different stories about taking up the sport. And yet a common thread weaves through these stories and that’s simply that lawn bowling is fun and they enjoy it. And you can get to experience for yourself these feelings of fun and enjoyment this coming Saturday, June 23 from 9:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. when the Goulbourn Lawn Bowling Club holds a free open house at its lawn bowling facility on Huntley Road beside the Goulbourn Town Hall (former Goulbourn municipal building) at Stanley’s Corners just south of Stittsville. Everyone is welcome to drop in and try out the sport. The Club will supply the bowls (lawn bowling balls), some instruction and will even provide you with a lunch, all for free. Then you will perhaps know how lawn bowler Rick

Nolan feels when he extols the fun involved in the sport. “I find it a lot of fun,� he says. Indeed, he has even recruited his brother Mike to the sport and both are now active members of the Goulbourn Lawn Bowling Club. Rick, who is a longtime director at Kelly Funeral Home, came to the sport in a rather unorthodox way five years ago. He had been asked by Club president George BurnsNichol about Kelly Funeral Home becoming a corporate sponsor of the Club and so he paid a visit to the Club to check it out. Well, lo and behold, he ended up falling in love with the sport and is now a regular bowler. While he had been involved with numerous sports over the years through his four children, lawn bowling was completely new to him. He had never even curled, a sport which has some similarities to lawn bowling. But while lawn bowl-

ing was new to Rick, he has picked up the game quickly and well and now plays as a skip. Because of his work, he bowls regularly on Tuesday evenings and sometimes takes time off work to bowl on Friday mornings. In addition, he and his brother will at times drop by the lawn bowling green at other times and have a game by themselves. Rick points to the friendly and sociable atmosphere which prevails at the Club, noting that fun is the name of the game, not the score. He says that even in tournaments where play is more competitive, scores become more important but even then everything happens in a fun way. He notes as well the wide range of ages of those at the Goulbourn Lawn Bowling Club, running from those in their 50’s like him to some in their 80’s. He said that some think that lawn bowling is just for retired people and he adamantly points out that this is fallacy,

using his own experience as an example. He says that lawn bowling has none of the frustration that sometimes is associated with a sport like golf and trying to hit that little white golf ball. In lawn bowling, it is all just relaxation and fun, he says, with the sport involving rolling a ball across the green. It also takes only about an hour to play a game, making it an efficient use of time. He notes that lawn bowling is also relatively inexpensive, with a $60 membership fee for first time members. This membership fee rises but only to a modest $135 when the bowler is no longer a rookie. The Club has a supply of bowls which first-time bowlers can use and eventually purchase if they wish. That’s what Rick and his brother Mike did and they are still using these bowls. For Teresa Derouin, her involvement with the Goulbourn Lawn Bowling Club goes back 14 or 15 years when she first joined. However, it has only been since 2005 that she has been a regular bowler. “I just enjoy getting out with the people and mingling after,� she says. She has attended tournaments in such locations as Sarnia, Hanover, Windsor and Belleville, something that she really enjoys since she meets many people at these events. She says that she is always picking up tips from other bowlers at these events, perhaps related to the way that a bowl is delivered or perhaps related to some game strategy. Teresa remembers purchasing her first set of used bowls, along with a case and measuring tape as well, at the former Stittsville Flea Market where she paid just $50. She has since moved on to another set of bowls but these were what she started with. Teresa bowls at least twice a week and never misses a Friday morning session. “It’s great exercise,� she points out, citing all the walking back and forth across the green that lawn bowlers do in the course of a game. Jean Tremblay had never even seen a lawn bowling green before he took up the sport eight or nine years ago. Ironically, he now serves as the Club’s greenskeeper, a role that he has taken on as a volunteer. He got involved in lawn bowling when his wife, at the insistence of some square dancing friends, decided to try out the sport. Jean tagged along, tried it out and the rest is history. He likens lawn bowling to curling, noting that lawn bowls curl just like curling rocks. In addition, lawn bowling also involves take out and draw shots, just like in curling. But in lawn bowling, there are no sweepers like in curling, Jean jokes. See FUN, page 27

Free open house happening a chance to try lawn bowling John Curry john.curry@metroland.com

Teresa Derouin of the Goulbourn Lawn Bowling Club holds a bowl.

EMC sports - The Goulbourn Lawn Bowling Club is making it easy for you to try out the sport. The Club is holding a free open house at its lawn bowling facility on Huntley Road beside the Goulbourn Town Hall (former Goulbourn municipal building) at Stanley’s Corners this Saturday, June 23 from 9:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. The Club will supply the bowls (lawn bowling balls), instruction and even some snacks, all for free. The Club event has some smaller balls which are made for youth bowlers so youth are most welcome at this open house. At this open house, you will get to try out the sport and see what you think of it. You may or may not want to pursue it but at least you will have experienced the sport. Lawn bowling is great for exercise, out in the fresh air and involving lots of movement. But it is not overly strenuous and a lawn bowler gets lot of opportunity to chat with others as the game goes on. It’s also lots of fun, sort of like curling on grass. But don’t take our word for it – decide

to experience it for yourself and plan to attend this Goulbourn Lawn Bowling Club open house on Saturday, June 23 and see for yourself why lawn bowling is becoming such a popular sport these days. And after your experience on the lawn bowling green, the Club will provide you with a lunch. It doesn’t get any better than this! And, remember, it’s all free. Lawn bowling is a game that goes back to the possibly the 12th century and most definitely to the 13th century. It is also a sport that suits people from teens through to seniors because of its leisurely pace, its reliance on skill and its non-contact nature. And, first and foremost, it is a game that is mostly played outdoors, with lots of opportunity for conversation and enjoying the fresh air. The objective in lawn bowling is to roll biased (that means that they are weighted, i.e. not perfectly round so that they will curve and bend as they move along the green) bowls so that they stop as close as possible to a smaller ball called a “jack” which has been placed at the other end of the green. Lawn bowling is popular in the United Kingdom, Australia, New Zealand, South

Africa, Hong Kong, parts of the United States, Japan and, of course, Canada. It is felt that lawn bowling may have begun back in the 12th century but definitely the game was being played in 13th century in England. This has been verified by a manuscript from the 13th century that contains a drawing representing two players aiming at a small cone. The world’s oldest bowling green can be found in Southampton, dating back to 1299. Today the sport is played in over 40 countries and is a sport at the Commonwealth Games. Lawn bowling is played on a rectangular, precisely leveled area with manicured grass, divided into parallel playing strips called rinks. In singles and pairs play, a player delivers four bowls in each end. In triples, three bowls are delivered by each player in an end while in fours, each bowler delivers two bowls in an end. For more information about the Goulbourn Lawn Bowling Club and about the game of lawn bowling, please contact Club president George Burns-Nichol at 613-831-0939 or email him at gjbn@rogers.com

He himself now lawn bowls a lot – at the Club’s Monday/ Wednesday/Friday morning sessions along with the Tuesday and Thursday evening sessions. Jean took on the role of the Club’s greenskeeper even though he had no experience in such a job. He volunteered although he had no idea what was involved and admits that it was challenging at the beginning. But now he has assembled a good crew of volunteer helpers and the work gets done. This includes cutting the grass regularly, rolling the green and dealing with any ant or weed problems. While the Club still has costs related to fertilizer and maintenance equipment, Jean’s assumption of the greenskeeper position as a volunteer does save the Club money in its operating costs. Jean, who usually plays as a skip in lawn bowling, can even be found lawn bowling when he takes a winter vacation in Florida. He says that there are lawn bowling facilities there, although they are not that numerous.

Richmond’s ‘Art in the Park’ offers more this year John Curry john.curry@metroland.com

EMC news - “Art in the Park” at Memorial Park in Richmond last Saturday, June 16 offered more than was found at last year’s wind-buffeted inaugural event hosted by the Richmond Village Art Club. Not only did the weatherman cooperate more, providing a warm, sunny day without the strong winds that prevailed in the inaugural event a year before but also there were more artists displaying their works. In addition, Richmond fiddler Ivy Garland was on hand to provide periods of background music, adding to the cultural atmosphere of the event. This was not all that was new this year, though. There was a colourful display of the posters which Richmond students had created to publicize the spring clean-up in the village this past spring. Sisters Lauren and Holly Treffers were on hand selling lemonade to raise funds for the Richmond Food Bank. They are experienced lemonade sellers, as previous lemonade exploits have included fundraising efforts to help save polar bears, the

support the Canadian National Institute for the Blind and Shepherds of Good Hope and to assist with community development in Africa. Coralie Bartley of the Richmond Village Art Club said that the Club is trying to involve the whole community in this nowannual “Art in the Park” event which will always happen on the third Saturday in June. That’s why this year’s event had several new attractions and hopefully more community partners will participate in future years. Something else new which happened at this year’s “Art in the Park” was the presentation of the Jill DeBoer Volunteer of the Year Award to Coralie and Les Bartley. This annual award, presented by the Richmond Village Association (RVA), goes to a volunteer or volunteers who are determined to have contributed to the life of the village through volunteer efforts. RVA director Heather Martineau, who made the presentation in an impromptu ceremony attended by city of Ottawa RideauGoulbourn ward councillor Scott Moffatt, pointed out that it was appropriate to award the DeBoer Award at “Art in the Park” since Coralie and Les Bartley had been instrumental in the es-

tablishment of the Richmond Village Art Club, hosts of this “Art in the Park” event. Coralie and Les Bartley were selected for the DeBoer Award this year not only because of their involvement with the Richmond Village Art Club but also because of their support of other community initiatives. The DeBoer Award was inaugurated by the RVA in 2005 in honour of community activist Jill DeBoer who was the first recipient. Other recipients of the DeBoer Award include Denise Crawford in 2008, Judy Wagdin in 2009 and Ted Brown in 2010. The “Art in the Park” event also benefitted this year from the presence of a BBQ just across McBean Street in the Mac’s parking lot. The BBQ was put on by Mac’s, providing hamburgs and hot dogs in return to a donation to Friends of Hospice Ottawa, a local charity that Mac’s stores across the area are supporting on Tuesday, June 26 with “Coffee for a Cause,” a fundraising initiative tied to the coffee sold at each Mac’s store that day. It is also part of Mac’s efforts to reach out and be part of the community, supporting the families and others who in turn support Mac’s.

EMC news - The mushroom lady. The fish lady. The parasol lady. They are all one and the same, Alexis Williams, and she was one of the artists who participated in the “Art in the Park� event hosted by the Richmond Village Art Club at Memorial Park in Richmond last Saturday, June 16. Alexis Williams admits that she has been studying mushrooms for years, earning her the name “Mushroom Lady� not only because of her mushroom-inspired art but also because she deals in wild and cultivated gourmet and medicinal mushrooms. At “Art in the Park,� she had on display a couple of her prints inspired by mushroom spores. But Alexis has not been content to be just the mushroom lady. She also now could also be called the “fish lady� because she is now doing fish prints as well. This is a printmaking technique traditionally used, apparently, by fishermen to record the size of a caught fish. She had a number of these fish prints at her display at “Art in the Park.� And now, as if mushrooms and fish themes are not enough, Alexis has begun making parasols. Who knows what is next? Another artist displaying his work at “Art in the Park� was Barrie Jones who has ex-

perimented with art over the years but two years ago, when he retired, took it up full time. He does a lot of portraits of people and dogs, as was evident from the work on display in his tent at “Art in the Park.� Barrie also does some landscapes in his painting. Speaking of landscapes, Richard Waterfall produces some large ones, showing scenes not only in Canada but around the world. Richard takes photographs of scenes that he likes and then works from them, using water-based acrylics. He has been painting since he was young but is totally self-taught. However, he does enroll in art workshops at times and also admits that he learns a lot from other artists. Monika Seidenbusch’s uniquely colourful art was an eye-catching attraction at “Art in the Park� this year. Artist and crafts person Sheila CainSample had both art and cards on display while Richmond artist Salena Richard had a display not only of her art but also the aprons which she makes. Those at “Art in the Park� could find some art of appeal to them somewhere among the 20 artists who were participating in the event. Whether it was Julie McGundle’s bird in blue or Heather Whitbread’s work featuring beef cattle or Kat McClure’s mixed media piece entitled “Moonlit,� there was plenty to see at this year’s “Art in the Park.�

EMC news - It was quilt day in Richmond last Saturday, June 16. That’s when The Country Quilter shop on McBean Street hosted its annual outdoor quilt show. This year’s sunny, warm weather enhanced the already idyllic setting in which the 100 or so quilts on display were hung on clotheslines strung throughout the landscaped rear yard of The Country Quilter, displaying their glorious colours and craftsmanship among the flowers and shrubs in the yard. It took two people using a ladder about an hour to place all of the quilts on display on the clotheslines running there and there throughout the yard. There were even four smaller quilts displayed on a white picket fence in the yard. Each quilt had an identification tag which told of the quilter, the pattern and the class in which the quilt was done. The quilts on display were augmented by a used book sale, a door prize draw, a doll display, a Richmond Area Quilters Guild display, and the presence of a sewing machine expert. Also among the quilts on display was an exhibit by CANHAVE, which featured small dolls, greeting cards and a bake table with homemade Samosas done by Caroline Nakayenga, a co-founder of the organization. CANHAVE, which stands for Canadians Helping AIDS Victims with Education, was founded in Nepean in 1994, supporting five students in Uganda. It now is supporting 60 students. In addition, CANHAVE helps provide schools in Uganda with necessary equipment and has even built a vocational school there. The cards on display and sale at the quilt show were done by Joseph Mawanda, a former supported student who is now 23 years old and is giving back by doing scenes from his village which are featured on the cards. CANHAVE also sells small internationally-costumed dolls with the proceeds going to a scholarship fund to help with the group’s educational work in Uganda. CANHAVE is a totally volunteer organization, with all of the funds raised going directly to its work in Uganda.

Michael Gillissie, who was ordained a priest on May 2, 1987 at Notre Dame Cathedral in Ottawa, has been a parish priest at

several churches in the Archdiocese including St. Philip and St. Clare. Rev. Gillissie has served as diocesan spiritual director to the Catholic Women’s League, taught high school, coached football and served as religious instructor for the commission scolaire regionale de l’Outaouais for 17 years. Rev. William Penney, who was born in Newfoundland, was ordained a priest on Aug. 3, 1987 at St-Aloysius Church in Gatineau by Most Rev. Brendan O’Brien, then Auxiliary

Bishop of Ottawa. Over the years he has served as an administrator, assistant pastor and pastor at various parishes in the Archdiocese including St. Michael Parish in Corkery.

Village Association changing places for its regular monthly meetings John Curry john.curry@metroland.com

EMC news - The Stittsville Village Association (SVA) is changing its meeting place although it will still be at the location. At its executive meeting on Thursday, June 14, it was agreed that the SVA would move its regular monthly executive meetings to the upstairs meeting room at the

Goulbourn Town Hall (former Goulbourn municipal building) at Stanley’s Corners. Since its inception, the SVA has been meeting in the former council chambers at this building. However, the SVA was asked if it would consider relocating the site for its meetings so that Girl Guides could meet in the former council chambers. The SVA may also try to

hold some of its executive meetings at other locations in the community such as the community rooms at both Sobeys and Brown’s Your Independent Grocer and at the Stittsville Legion Hall. The SVA’s annual general meeting, scheduled for Thursday, Nov. 22, will be held in the former council chambers at the Goulbourn Town Hall at Stanley’s Corners.

‘Jazz Musical Evening’ at Gaia to live up to its name June 22 Special to the News

EMC news - It’s called a “Jazz Musical Evening” and it’s going to live up to its name totally. This “Jazz Musical Evening” featuring a total of nine performers is being held this Friday, June 22 from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. at the Gaia Java Coffee Company at the Stittsville Shopping Centre on Stittsville Main Street in Stittsville. Where is all of this music coming from? Well, Gaia Java Coffee Company owners Paul Melsness and Paul Jay will be singing with their vocal group “Quintessence.” Also performing will be American jazz pianist John Chmaj as well as Nepean High School graduating horn players Claire Devlin on saxophone and Emily Denison on trumpet. The first appearance of Seattle-based pianist John Chmaj at the Gaia Java Coffee Company shop last January proved very popular. The Ottawa-based vocal sextet “Quintessence” performed in support of him at that time, establishing a bond based on shared repertoire

and influences. They should be great again this coming Friday, June 22. John Chmaj, who is working in Ottawa at the moment but is a seasoned professional pianist from the American jazz scene, will once again this coming Friday be demonstrating his energetic, adverturous piano style, combining jazz, blues and new age into a unique entertaining sound. In addition, the vocal jazz repertoire of “Quintessence” will be on display, both a cappella as well as accompanied by John Chmaj.

Rock the Arts CD release party June 30 Jessica Cunha jessica.cunha@metroland.com

EMC news - It will soon be possible to take home the puppets of Rock the Arts fame. The puppets teamed up with First Fret Music School – both Kanata Lakes-based organizations – to mix an audio CD featuring original puppets Ned, Fiona, Dex, Hank and Scurvy Scott. Sarah Argue, founder of Rock the Arts, and Adam Vrieling, founder of First Fret, will hold a CD release party for Welcome to Creatureville on Saturday, June 30 in Stittsville. “There will be singing and dancing puppets at the launch,” said Argue, who added children are always asking to bring the puppets home after shows. “Now they actually get to take them home.” Welcome to Creatureville features a story and full-length

song by each puppet. Fan favourite Fiona tells a story about making the best out of a bad situation, while Dex explains how change can be a good thing through rock ’n’ roll. “It’s all about being a good person,” said Argue. “Like holding the door open for strangers or choosing to laugh when life gets hard.” The CD will appeal to parents too. “We didn’t want anything cheesy,” said Vrieling. “If the CD is on in the car for three hours we didn’t want mom and dad to go insane.” Welcome to Creatureville uses many different instruments, including the guitar, the kazoo, a train whistle, ukulele, mandolin and piano, all played by Vrieling, who sings alongside Argue. “It just gives the CD a good variety,” said Argue. Argue said the CD has been

her most personal accomplishment to date. Having created Rock the Arts and performed at numerous schools, day camps and events, she said the CD is something that really speaks to her values. “This is the first thing I’ve made that’s so personal for me,” she said. Vrieling said although it was a puzzle to mix together, in the end, everything came together. “I think it turned out fantastic,” he said. “I’m very proud of it.” The Welcome to Creatureville launch and puppet show will take place on Saturday, June 30 at 10 a.m. at the Gaia Java Coffee Company Inc. store located at the Stittsville Shopping Centre (Shoppers Drug Mart plaza) at 1300 Stittsville Main St. For more information, visit www.rockthearts.ca or email rockinthearts@gmail.com.

Order of Ottawa gets OK Laura Mueller

laura.mueller@metroland.com

EMC news - A new major award, the Order of Ottawa, was approved by the city’s executive committee last week. The new award would honour “those who have excelled in their field and have made exceptional contributions to life in the city,” a city report states. The creation of the order was approved by the city’s finance and economic development committee, the de facto executive committee, on June 5. The award would honour those who have contributed to city life in the areas of arts and culture, business, community service, education, public service, labour, communications and media, science, sports and entertainment or other fields of endeavour that benefit the residents of Ottawa.

Nominees must be current residents of Ottawa who have made a significant contribution through their professional achievements and cannot be elected officials (municipal, provincial or federal) currently in office. The title is intended to “convey the nature of the award as one of importance and prestige based on meritorious service,” according to a city report. The current list of major city awards includes: the key to the city (currently the most prestigious award), which has been in existence since 1937; the City Builder Award, established by Watson after the 2010 election; and Freedom of the City, which is awarded to a military unit and has been handed out by the city five times since 2002. The Order of Ottawa program will replace the Civic Appreciation Awards program and take over its $25,000 annual budget.

Cadets experience Vimy Ridge tour Jessica Cunha jessica.cunha@metroland.com

EMC news - A chance encounter for a Kanata Lakes teenager overseas changed a special trip into an emotional experience. Sgt. Esteban Sanchez-Maya, with the 2870 Royal Canadian Dragoons Cadet Corps, travelled to Vimy Ridge with 18 other cadets to honour the 95th anniversary of the First World War battle. As part of the nine-day tour, the group visited a cemetery where Canadian soldiers are buried. Each cadet was asked to research one of the soldiers and make a cross of remembrance to place on the grave. When Sanchez-Maya reached the grave he was assigned, the soldier’s niece and her family – who live in Owen Sound, Ont. – were there paying their respects. “It really brought it home more than just

seeing a name,” said Sanchez-Maya. “I got lucky that way.” Stittsville’s Sgt. Francesca Martin said the experience gave her a bigger appreciation of what Canadian soldiers experienced during the First World War. “One of the biggest things was seeing the grave of the man I had researched – he was 19,” she said. The corps left on April 4, travelling to Amsterdam, Bruges, Passchendaele, Vimy, Normandy and Paris. During one bus ride, the group passed through three countries, said navy Lt. Laura Henderson. The cadets who took part in the excursion invited their parents to view a slide show of their time overseas on Monday, June 4, at Connaught Ranges. Over 300 pictures flashed across the screen

while the room buzzed with excitement and remembered stories. There were pictures of the cadets taking part in a parade for the Vimy Ridge 95th Anniversary Commemoration, in the trenches along the D-Day beaches, as well as candid shots taken during the many bus rides. “You do learn from being there,” said Henderson, adding it was a great experience for everyone involved. Sgt. Dennis Pearson, from Carleton Place, said it was an opportunity to celebrate the Canadians who died making a difference. “It was to bring Canadian pride,” he said, adding, “It was a wonderful experience.” Katimavik’s master warrant officer Kyle Edwards said Remembrance Day will hold a new meaning for him. “What’s going to stick with me is all the

graves I saw,” he said. “Seeing all the rows upon rows fills you with so much pride of being Canadian.” Martin said the weather was similar to what soldiers lived every day during the war. “It was basically the same weather they would have had – cold and wet,” she said, adding it gave them all a deeper appreciation for the conditions the soldiers would have lived in during the war. Around 1,200 cadets from all across Canada attended the Vimy Ridge commemoration tour. “You hear about it in history, it’s so different when you can see it,” said master warrant officer Zach Williams, who lives in the Pakenham area, about the famous battle. “I got a much deeper understanding – Lest We Forget – now I get it.”

Here comes full day kids camp - and it’s free! john.curry@metroland.com

EMC news - It’s a chance for youngsters to learn about those in the community who are there to help them like policemen and paramedics. It’s also a week of activities like sports and games and even off-site activities like swimming. In addition, throughout the week, the children

will learn about God who is “Mighty to Save.” And, get ready for this, it’s all free. Yes, that’s right, free. A week of these activities and it’s all free. The Community Bible Church on Stittsville Main Street is offering this new full day kids camp from Monday, July 23 to Friday, July 27 this summer.

There’s space for lots of children, with up to 100 able to be accommodated. The camp will run from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. each day during the week of July 23-27, with children from those who have completed junior kindergarten right up to those who have completed grade five eligible to attend. At this day camp, the chil-

dren will be visited by a special guest community worker each day to learn about how they help people on a daily basis. This could be a policeman or a paramedic or someone in another helping profession. Besides learning about these people in the community who care about them and are there to help them if needed,

those at the camp will also be able to enjoy summer activities like sports and games on a daily basis. This will include some off-site activities such as swimming. And as the children learn about those in the community who care about them and also get to enjoy some summer activities, they will also have an opportunity to learn about

God who loves them and who is “Mighty to Save” which is what this full day kids camp is being called – “Mighty to Save.” Registration for this new full day week-long kids camp “Mighty to Save” is now open.

‘Coffee for a Cause’ for Hospice at Mac’s EMC news - It all started in Richmond and now has spread to every Mac’s store in the Ottawa area. It is “Coffee for a Cause,” a fundraising initiative tied to the coffee sold at each Mac’s store on a particular day which this year is this coming Tuesday, June 26. And all of the funds raised by the sale of coffee in each of the 43 Mac’s stores in the Ottawa area that day will be going to support Friends of Hospice Ottawa. In addition to the revenue from coffee sales, there will be donation boxes for Friends of Hospice Ottawa set up at each Mac’s store that day. Those who make donations will be eligible to win a gift basket, with one basket being given away at each store. At a number of the Mac’s store that day, Friends of Hospice Ottawa will have a volunteer who will be armed with informational materials about Friends of Hospice Ottawa and the services which it provides for those facing life threatening diseases. The volunteers will also be able to answer any questions posed by those visiting the store with the volunteers to be there from 8 a.m. to 10 a.m., the busiest coffee times at the stores. This “Coffee for a Cause” fundraising for

Friends of Hospice Ottawa began in 2010 when the idea was implemented in the Mac’s store in Richmond. Then, last year, the idea spread to a dozen Mac’s stores in the area. Now, this year the program has been extended to all 43 Mac’s stores in the Ottawa area. This is not only a major fundraising opportunity for Friends of Hospice Ottawa but it is also an opportunity for the organization to spread information about the value and benefits of hospice care. Friends of Hospice Ottawa provides a host of services and programs to meet the needs of those facing life threatening illness and their families. These include in-home support, bereavement support, caregiver support, day hospice programs and transportation. The mission of Friends of Hospice Ottawa, which services the western portion of the city of Ottawa, is to provide life-affirming support to individuals with life threatening illnesses and to those who care for them so that they may feel empowered to live as fully as possible in their home with care and dignity. Friends of Hospice Ottawa frequently uses the following statement to describe its services to those facing life threatening illnesses: “While we cannot add days to your life, we can add life to your days.”

Stittsville’s Kyle Jamieson to coach at Furman University john.curry@metroland.com

EMC sports - He grew up playing ball in Stittsville and now he’s going to be head coach of the women’s softball team at Furman University in Greenville, South Carolina, starting on July 1st. Kyle Jamieson accepted this head coaching position after serving as assistant coach at Fordham University in New York City during the 2011 season where he helped guide the team to a 32-26 overall record and a second place finish in the Atlantic 10 Conference. The Fordham pitching staff had the second best ERA in the Conference.

“Every college team that Kyle Jamieson has worked with has gotten better,” said Furman University director of athletics Dr. Gary Clark in announcing Kyle’s appointment to the head coaching job for ladies’ softball, citing his technical knowledge, communication skills and experience as assets in being a top head coach. In accepting the position, Kyle thanked Furman University for its faith in his vision for the school’s softball program. He said that his goal was to put Furman’s softball program “on the map” among American universities. Kyle’s appointment at Fur-

man University has brought forth praise from others in the coaching fraternity including Ken Eriksen, head coach of the University of South Florida and coach of the United States national team. “Coach Jamieson will bring a legitimate wealth of knowledge of fastpitch softball to the Furman softball program,” coach Eriksen said. “Any time you can get a coach that not only has had success with some of the best collegiate pitchers in the game but also a coach that has played at the highest level, you have to consider yourself lucky. The Student athletes at Furman should be excited to have coach Jamieson as he strives to bring Furman into the national picture again.” Coach Eriksen was not the only coach to praise Kyle’s selection as head coach at Furman University. “Furman made an excellent choice when selecting Kyle Jamieson as the new head softball coach,” said Bridget Orchard, head coach at Fordham University. “Kyle has tremendous passion, knowledge and love for the game.” “Furman is not only getting a great coach, but also a great person,” coach Orchard continued. “He is very much deserving and I couldn’t be happier for him.” “I think Kyle is a rising star in the college softball ranks and will do a fantastic job at Furman University,” said Pat-

Kyle Jamieson rick Murphy, head coach at the University of Alabama. “As a player he had a great career and he is bringing that passion and excitement to the game as a coach. I think Furman has hired a true winner who has a plan to build a successful softball program.” “Kyle has a great passion for the game and I Know he will work hard to help each player reach their potential as well as bring success to the program,” said Sandy Pearsall, head coach of the University of Louisville. “Furman is hiring a great softball mind in Kyle,” said Shonda Stanton, head coach at Marshall University. “He brings a wealth of knowledge and a strong ability to train the softball athlete in all phases of the game. He has a proven record of attracting quality student athletes at every step of his coaching career and is deserving of the opportunity. Kyle’s position and commit-

ment to the sport and the athletes will build momentum for Furman softball immediately.” Kyle began his college coaching career as an assistant at the University of Toledo during the 2000 season. After serving as an assistant coach with the Danish men’s national team in 2001, he returned to CNAA softball at Bowling Green in 2003, helping the t4eam win the 2004 Mid-American Conference championship. Hired as an assistant coach at Syracuse University prior to the 2007 season, Kyle helped guide the team’s pitching staff to a lower ERA record. Indeed, during his tenure at Syracuse University, the team’s ERA was cut in half as the staff finished the 2009 season with a 2.42 ERA, down from the 4.88 ERA that the staff had before his arrival as a coach. Prior to joining the coach-

ing staff at Fordham University in the fall of 2011, Kyle spent two seasons helping to rebuild the University of Arkansas softball program. Kyle, who is now 37 years old, grew up playing softball in Stittsville. He pitched for winning Team Canada squad in the World Junior Softball Championship in Auckland, New Zealand in 1993. Later that same year, he pitched for the Stittsville Midget 56ers softball team which won the Ontario Provincial Midget Championship, being awarded the tournament’s Most Valuable Player Award. The team went on to place second in the Canadian Midget Softball Championships in Victoria, British Columbia. In 1994, he was inducted into the Goulbourn Sports Wall of Fame. In 2003, Kyle was a member of the Kemptville Thunder fastpitch squad that won the silver medal at the ISC World Championships. Kyle earned a bachelor’s degree in physical education from Brock University in 1997 and a bachelor’s degree in education from Nipissing University in 1998. Furman University in Greenville, South Carolina, is a private, co-educational liberal arts college, one of the oldest institutions in South Carolina as it was founded in 1826. It has about 2,700 undergraduate students as well as 525 graduate students, studying on a 750 acre campus. The university offers majors and programs in 42 subjects. It fields a total of 20 varsity sports teams including women’s softball playing in the NCAA Division 1 with the team name Paladins. Furman University was named for Richard Furman of South Carolina, a prominent minister and president of the first Baptist convention in America. R0011458896

One of these communities where this has been happening is the community of Seje in Kenya where people have been walking four kilometers every day just to get water from a river and walk home with it. Now the Community Bible Church in Stittsville is working to eliminate this daily walk for the people of Seje by raising funds to bring a clean and sustainable water course to the community. And it is raising these funds by giving residents of Stittsville and area an opportunity to experience what the people of Seje have been doing every day – walk four kilometers to retrieve water. This will happen in the first Walk for Water fundraiser being hosted by the Community Bible Church in Stittsville this Saturday, June 23 beginning at 9 a.m. And everyone in the community is welcome to take part and experience what such a walk is like while helping to reach the fundraising target of $15,000. All of these funds raised will be used to develop a clean and sustainable water source for the people of Seje in Kenya. The Walk for Water will be a four kilometer walk that will begin at the Community Bible Church at 1600 Stittsville Main Street and will follow a route to the pond at Paul Lindsay Park in Stittsville where walkers will fill up a bottle or bucket and then will make the return trek back to the church with their load of water. In doing this, the walkers will be replicating in a symbolic way the hike that the villagers of Seje must make every day to collect water from a nearby river. Everyone is welcome to participate in this Walk for Water, with registration now open for both individuals and teams at www.cbcstittsville. com In addition, donations can be made online at www.cbcstittsville.com and will be accepted at the church on the

Among its activities are identifying and marking heritage buildings in the community, encouraging historical research and promoting interest in local history.

day of the walk. Volunteers will be located along the walk route and at the church to accept these donations. Now is the time to line up team members and start collecting donations from supporters or raising funds individually in order to make a donation at the Walk on Saturday, June 23. Families are encouraged to participate and indeed, the Walk for Water is being planned as a family friendly event which will end back at the church premises with fun water games, live music and a BBQ ($5 per person). The Community Bible Church began its involvement with the community of Seje in Kenya in 2011. Seje is a cluster of villages on the western edge of Kenya in Africa, with a total population of about 5,000 people. The Community Bible Church has developed a partnership with Seje that involves working alongside local leaders to help develop a

sustainable community. There are two significant initiatives currently underway through this partnership. One involves providing education and meals for the poorest children in the village, many of whom are orphans. This initiative is being funded by financially sponsoring the children. The second initiative is working to provide clean water for the Seje community. This is being done not only by partnering with the people of Seje but also by accessing the technical expertise of Water Missions International, an engineering relief and development Christian non-profit organization. The $15,000 which will hopefully be raised by this Walk for Water on Saturday, June 23 will double the capacity of newly installed water infrastructure in Seje, meaning that at least another 500 people will have access to clean water there.

This Walk for Water is another in an ongoing series of fundraising projects arising out of the Community Bible Church’s commitment to the Seje community. These have included a Sow Good Sale which was held last November and a trivia night which was held earlier this year. Seje is a cluster of five villages that are predominately Christian with the community located on a ridge about 150 feet above the Yala river valley. The ground is typically dry and rocky and for years the people of Seje have spent hours walking two kilometers each way to draw water from the river, with the river water lacking in cleanliness. Kenya is located in sub-Saharan Africa along the equator. It was a British colony until gaining independence in 1963. Seje itself is located about 25 kilometers from the Ugandan border to the west. The community is north of Lake Victoria in a relatively remote part of Kenya. Although located on the equator, Seje’s climate is somewhat moderated by virtue of its elevation which is about 4,000 feet above sea level.

The WOCRC served 18,000 people over the past year, said Jordan. “That makes it a really fulfilling place for me to work,” she said. “We have amazing staff and volunteers.” The centre will also celebrate a number of new partnerships including the Andrew Fleck Integrated Children’s Services and the addition of two Youth Services Bureau counsellors on site. Jordan said she’s hoping people come to find out about the types of services offered at the centre. “Even though we’ve served over 18,000 people this year, many people still don’t know what services we offer,” she said. “Come and learn, talk to the staff.” The open house will be held at the WOCRC on Monday, June 25 from 5:30 to 7 p.m. at 2 MacNeil Crt. off Castlefrank Road just north of Hazeldean Road in Kanata.

Our family chain is broken, And nothing seems the same, but as God calls us One by one, the chain will link again. May the winds of love blow slowly, And the whisper for you to hear, That we still love you dearly, And wish that you were here. We hold you close within our hearts, And there you will remain, To walk beside us all our lives, Until we meet again. We share so many memories, Of which you had a part, And we will keep them always, Treasured in our hearts. Sadly missed and lovingly remembered always Stuart & Isabelle Preston and Family

MARY COOK We Know What Works

Mary Cook’s Memories It didn’t take long for us to realize this was no ordinary trip into Renfrew for our Saturday supplies. I loved sitting in the back of the car where all the action was. Three brothers and my sister Audrey kept the place buzzing all the way into town for the 20 kilometres. But that day Mother steered me into the front to sit between her and Father. But Father and Everett were yet to appear. I figured they were in the barn checking on the livestock. Then we saw them, half dragging, half pushing a fullgrown sheep across the barnyard. Audrey let a moan out of her that could be heard in Admaston and said she would stay home if Father had any intention of cramming “that sheep into the car.” Mother reminded her she was to pick out a new pair of shoes that day at Scott’s Shoe Store, so she had little choice. Emerson said he could always hang on to the running board outside the car if need be. It wouldn’t be the first time he tried the stunt, but that day it looked more and more like a possible solution. Mother said Father had to take the sheep into town where it would be turned over to a farmer from the Braeside area, who had made a deal with him. “Before you know it, we’ll be in town and the sheep will be gone,” she said. Everett said it had better be shoved in the only door in the back that had any hinges left on it. The other one, tied on with binder twine, would take too long to open. It looked to me like the sheep wasn’t too happy about being pushed into either door. Finally, Father took its hind legs, Everett its front and they heaved it into the back of the car, right on top of everyone’s feet. Father slammed the door shut, which pushed the sheep further into the car, then Everett flew in behind it right over the door, Father jumped behind the steering wheel and we took off. Emerson said later, it was the fastest he ever saw Father push the old car. There were no windows in the car, just little roll-up blinds and we were all grateful for the air that passed through from one side to the other as Father careened down the Northcote side road. From all appearances, we were just a normal family on its way into town to do the usual Saturday shopping for supplies. Emerson said the sheep had relieved itself and Audrey said “that’s disgusting,” pushing her head out the side of the car as far as it would go. Mother, ever practical, told Emerson to use his foot

Sheepish passenger makes ride to town interesting indeed and push it out the plate-sized hole in the floor in the back of the car. And so, the “deposit” was made along the Northcote side road, which to others traveling the route wouldn’t find to be so unusual, since livestock could often be seen being herded up and down the road. The real trouble started when we hit the outskirts of Renfrew. Father slowed down, the sheep was fast losing patience with its tight quarters and it stuck its head out the window and let a string of bleats go that had people turning in their tracks on the street to see where the noise was coming from. This caused Audrey great embarrassment and she slid down as far as she could go in the seat, and when I turned around to look, all I could see was the big flat pink ribbon covering her black hair like a newspaper. The sheep was still voicing its disapproval all along Raglan Street on the way to the drive shed where the drop-off was to be made. Emerson was laughing his head off. There was no sound or sign of Earl. He was likely buried under Everett, who was trying to keep the sheep from jumping out the side of the car. “Just like a bunch of gypsies,” Audrey said over and over again, praying we’d meet no one who would recognize us. Father steered the car into the drive shed at the end of Raglan Street, came to a halt and the sheep cleared the back door with one wild leap. The farmer who was there to collect it, pushed his straw hat to the back of his head and watched as the woolly animal tore around the lot like someone had filled it full of buckshot. My three brothers joined Father and the new owner and finally cornered it in one of the horse stalls. Audrey refused to get out of the car, even if it meant her new shoes would have to wait for another Saturday. Mother picked up what she needed at Walker’s and at Ritza’s Drug Store collected her weekly copy of the Philadelphia Inquirer. The rest of the shopping for our supplies would have to wait. As soon as we got back to the farm, my sister Audrey took a bucket, a towel and a bar of homemade soap and headed for the Bonnechere River. She insisted three days later she still smelled of sheep. The brothers were given the job of washing out the back of the car. Mother, long after the daylight had gone, was heard to say almost in a whisper, “no one ever told me living on a farm would be like this.”

Bread machine loaf destined to be a favourite

PAT TREW MINGS MOTOR NEWS M E H Food ‘n’ Stuff

Of all the recipes I’ve made in the bread machine, this is without a doubt our favourite for everyday eating. From the comments I’ve received, it’s also a favourite with a lot of readers. Recently I was asked to repeat it for those who may have missed it. The secret to this loaf’s success is cottage cheese. The recipe doesn’t call for much, just 1/3 of a cup, but it makes all the difference in the texture and freshness of the bread. This loaf is moist and stays fresh, keeping well for three or four days. It’s perfect for making either sandwiches or toast. The basic recipe uses a combination of all purpose white flour and whole wheat flour. This gives the loaf more body than white bread without the heaviness of 100 per cent whole wheat. The sunflower seeds are optional. With or without them, this bread is delicious. I’ve also included a variation for making this as Cinnamon Raisin Bread. There are differences between the two recipes so read whichever one you’re making carefully. Both recipes make a 681 gram (1.5 pound) loaf. Cottage Cheese Bread 1 1/4 cups water 1/3 cup cottage cheese 3/4 tsp. salt 1 tbsp. white sugar 1 tbsp. shortening 2 1/2 cups all purpose white flour 1 cup whole wheat flour 1/3 cup sunflower seeds 1 1/2 tsp. bread machine yeast Place all of the ingredients, except the sun-

flower seeds, in the breadmaking pan in the order given. Because of the cottage cheese, which can spoil in warm weather, don’t use the delayed start. Start the bread machine right away using the Whole Wheat cycle. Add the sunflower seeds when the machine beeps indicating Add Ingredients. When the bread is finished, remove the loaf from the pan. Let the loaf cool for at least one hour before slicing it. A serrated knife works best for cutting fresh bread. If you’re using the bread to make sandwiches, let the bread cool completely first.

When you measure the ingredients into the bread machine, place the cinnamon to one side of the flour and the yeast to the other side. Don’t let the spice touch the yeast because cinnamon can prevent the yeast from working properly. Start the bread machine using the Sweet Cycle. Add the raisins when the machine beeps indicating Add Ingredients. When the bread is finished, remove the loaf from the pan. Let cool for one hour before slicing.
