EMC news - Nathan Haller of Stittsville is moving along his road to a career in opera. The 21 year old Sacred Heart High School graduate will be entering his fourth year at New York City’s renowned Juilliard School this fall, where he has specializing in opera and indeed has discovered definitely that he wants to pursue a career in opera. “It’s what I want to do now,” he says during a summer break at home in Stittsville. “I’m definitely confident of that.” Indeed, he is leaving this week for a sevenweek stay in Germany this summer where he will be attending the Internationale Meistersinger Akademie program for young singers in Neumarkt in Germany. Edith Wiens, a retired Canadian soprano who is well known as an opera singer in Germany and who is now Nathan’s voice teacher at Juilliard School, is the artistic director at this German program. But he still had to audition for a spot in the program and at 21, he will be the youngest singer in this year’s program. At this summer program in Germany, Nathan will be exposed to some of Europe’s top opera directors. He will also be involved in opera productions across Germany, will be making recordings for German radio and will be have an opportunity to audition to perform on the stage of the famous opera house in Dresden. “It’s quite the opportunity,” he says about this summertime experience. While at home in Stittsville recently, Nathan has done some practicing but not to the same degree as he does when at Juilliard. Instead, he has done some work around the family cottage and has been running with his brother. However, he did attend a young artists’ class at the University of Ottawa with distinguished American soprano Benita Valente, offered through the National Arts Centre’s Summer Music Institute. Nathan is an enthusiastic fan of the opera, describing it as the most brilliant music a person can hear. He calls it an amazing art form which is why, he says, it has survived for hundreds of years. He says that opera music fits his voice but he also admits that there will be years of training before his voice will reach its optimum. He says that his teachers such as Ms. Wiens try to fix any bad singing habits he has while also trying to train his voice to sing in the manner that he needs in order to perform in opera.

Kate Winn graduates one day, Nathan Haller loves opera rescues young child next day Continued from page 1

john.curry@metroland.com

EMC news - On Thursday, June 28, Kate Winn of Stittsville was receiving an award at the Sacred Heart Catholic High School graduation for community involvement and service. Just over 24 hours later, the 17 year old, working as a city of Ottawa lifeguard, was rescuing a four year old from drowning at a city of Ottawa wading pool. It was Kate’s first day on the job at the Michele Heights Community Centre wading pool in the Bayshore area and what a day it was! Just before 5 p.m., Kate did not hesitate or delay in taking action as she rescued a four year old boy who was floating face down in the wading pool. Cardio pulmonary resuscitation was administered and the boy was breathing on his own when Ottawa paramedics arrived and took over, eventually taking the youngster to hospital. He has since been released. Indeed, Kate is now hoping that she may have the opportunity to teach him how to swim in the future. Kate’s extensive training provided by the city helped her react in this crisis situation in her first day on the job. She was back at work on the weekend, not missing a day despite the incident. Kate Winn received her secondary school grade 12 gradu-

ation diploma at the Sacred Heart Catholic High School graduation ceremony on Thursday morning, June 28 at the Bell Sensplex. In addition, she was a recipient of one of the 38 individual awards presented at the ceremony. She received the Rotary Club of Ottawa – Stittsville Award and its accompanying $500. This award is presented to a graduating student who has shown community involvement and

participated in actions that reflect the four Rotary truths of truth, fairness, goodwill and benefitting others. This is not the only major award which Kate received during her grade 12 graduating year at Sacred Heart. Last October, at the school’s honour roll and top mark assembly, Kate received the Catholic Student Award presented by the Catholic Education Foundation of Ottawa.

“Opera is not easy,� Nathan says, saying it requires years of training. While his voice is getting better, he still has a lot of room for growth with his voice, he says, as the male voice for opera usually matures in the age 25 to 30 range. He describes the voice as a small internal instrument which cannot be fixed manually like a musical instrument but must be developed over time while the singer slowly learns how to use it properly. Nathan is looking forward to his upcoming fourth year of his Bachelor’s Degree program at Juilliard School since it should feature a little lighter load than the past three years, giving him time to prepare for his audition to enter the school’s Master’s Degree program. If successful, this will entail another two years of study at Juilliard. Following his Master’s, he will probably join a young artists’ program with an opera company such as the Metropolitan Opera in New York City. However, there are also opera companies across North America as well as in Europe, so there should be plenty of opportunities for an up and coming opera singer like Nathan. He would start with smaller roles in various operas and hopefully work his way

Nathan Haller It’s a little ways off yet but Stittsville and area residents will be able to hear Nathan sing, albeit not opera, this coming January when he will be singing a couple of songs at a gala Elizabeth Manley and Friends skating show at Scotiabank Place, with the proceeds going to help youth services, the Royal Ottawa Hospital and the Do-It-ForDaron program. He agreed to perform at the event since the Haller family knows the Manley family through a work connection.

up to bigger and bigger roles. In his years at Juilliard to date, Nathan has taken a variety of classes, ranging from musical theory to ear training to acting and dancing. He has been involved in various opera shows at Juilliard. Opera is challenging, ranging from knowing the various languages in which opera is performed to performing the music itself. An opera singer must not only be able to pronounce languages such as French, Italian, German and Russian but also must know the language well enough to be able to infuse the appropriate emotional content into the singing. For instance, he will be taking German lessons when he is in Germany this summer. An opera singer must also be musically expert in order to hit the required notes properly and in time with the other singers on stage. An opera singer must also be able to move with grace on the stage, which is why dance classes are part of the Juilliard program. Another of Nathan’s teachers is Steve Blier with whom he works on his music in terms of how to perform it properly in terms of musicality and phrasing. Mr. Blier is renowned as a vocal coach and musician and is a co-founder of the New York Festival of Song.

Swim into summer with the help of Ottawa’s swim advisories A no-swim advisory may ruin your plans to cool off during a hot summer day at one of Ottawa’s four City beaches, however these are issued to protect your health when there is poor water quality. Poor water quality means that the beach water contains a high level of bacteria that may increase a swimmer’s risk of developing skin, eye, ear, nose and throat infections. Ingestion of water with high levels of bacteria may cause health issues such as gastrointestinal illnesses. Every day during the beach season, Ottawa Public Health samples water from Britannia, Westboro, Mooney’s Bay and Petrie Island beaches for the presence of E.coli bacteria. When elevated levels of E.coli are detected in the water, other organisms that can pose a risk to your health are likely present. Ottawa’s Medical Officer of Health has the authority to issue a no-swim advisory. Beaches are most often closed due to bacteria levels over 200 E.coli per 100 mL of water tested, or over 100 E.coli per 100 mL of water tested for two or more consecutive days.

and South Nation River. A watershed is the land area feeding a river, including all the related lakes and streams. Protecting our watersheds requires support from communities all across Eastern Ontario. What happens in one part of the watershed affects other communities. Some of the factors that can pollute a beach include: • Heavy rains causing increased runoff of contaminants from land into the storm sewers, which flow directly in nearby streams and rivers. Heavy rains can also cause sewers to overflow into streams and rivers; • E.coli bacteria present in the feces of pets, birds and other warm-blooded animals; • High winds stirring up contaminated sediments; • Calm waters holding contaminants close to shore; • Boats discharging dirty water and sewage; • Low water levels; and • Defective septic systems at private residences, resorts and camps.

Strength training for seniors How do you get started? Unfortunately, as we age we lose much of the muscle mass we had in our twenties. In fact, by about age 70 to 80, seniors have lost 40-50% of the muscle mass and strength they had in their 20s. Less muscle mass makes every day things like lifting groceries, pushing lawnmowers, going up and down stairs and getting up from a chair harder to do.

If you would like to start working on your strength at home, call the Ottawa Public Health Information Line listed below for information about the Get Moving: Active Sitting DVD, available for a small fee. This 30 minute program is easy to follow, and comes with a user’s guide demonstrating exercises if you are not very active or have just started exercising. You can also borrow the DVD for free from your local library.

As you get older, Strength training, also called resistance training or weight lifting, slows the loss of muscle, keeps you strong and helps make every day activities easier. Strength training means exercising your muscles against resistance or gravity. The more you repeat an exercise and the more weight you lift, the stronger your muscle becomes.

If you prefer to exercise in a gym, call 211 or visit ottawa.ca to find a local recreation center or City of Ottawa Senior’S Centre. Private health clubs also have these types of activities. If you are a gym member, ask about adding some strength training to your routine.

Research shows that strength training also helps to: · Reduce your risk of falls · Improve balance and posture · Promote healthier bones

Stay safe, stay alive on water this summer

H

owever you choose to spend time this summer, remember to keep safety in mind – especially if those plans include time on the water. The Canadian Safe Boating Council has issued a notice calling on more of us to take more seriously the issue of personal flotation devices (PFDs), better known as life preservers or life jackets. Every few days each

summer – especially after weekends – there are sad stories to be told about another Canadian losing their life to drowning. We’re a nation of rivers, lakes and streams, and so many of us love getting out on the water. Too many of us – whether out for a day of fishing, canoeing or pleasure boating – still choose to head out without either wearing a PFD or having the requisite number of life jackets on

board. The end result, as the organization outlines, can be tragic. The question, of course, is why? Why do so many adults not wear this potentially lifesaving gear? Many likely feel they are strong enough swimmers to overcome any unforeseen situation. But whether it’s a strong undertow or the shock of hitting cold water causing what the council refers to as “gasp reflex,� there’s really

no way of knowing how one will react once overboard. If you still think life jackets have to be made out of bulky slabs of Styrofoam, you need to take a look at today’s store shelves. The latest designs now on the market are lightweight and come in a range of styles and colours that should suit any fashion taste. They’re not much bulkier or heavier than a T-shirt. There’s even a new inflat-

able design that can come with automatic inflation that fills the PFD with air as soon as you hit the water. Some boaters will still say a short trip doesn’t necessitate the bother of even placing a PFD in the vessel. And yet statistics tell a different story. There are close to 140 unnecessary drownings in Canada every year, according to the safe boating council. And roughly 80 per cent of

those recreational boaters who lose their life on the water weren’t wearing a life jacket. A vast majority of parents make sure their toddlers and youngsters wear a PFD in the water. It’s time they set aside the excuses and lead by example by donning the gear as well. Regardless of the situation, life jackets do save lives. As the council promotes: It’s Your Life...Preserve It.

That the proposed towers were more than twice the height for which the street was zoned might have had something to do with it, except that the argument hasn’t worked too well in the past. For that reason, it seems too early to celebrate. There is every indication the tide is in fact not turning against tall buildings. We are reading almost every day about similarly oversized structures that are going ahead. It used to be front-page news when this happened. After all, this is a city in which, for the longest time, the Peace Tower was supposed to be the tallest building allowed. But now, it’s tower after tower, each taller than the last. Less than two weeks after the supposed victory over developers in Westboro, the newspapers carried, on inside pages, news of a 27-storey tower on Nepean Street and a 30-storey job on Preston. You can look down on the Peace Tower from both of them. The public is mystified, because the public can’t see what’s driving this. Does anybody like tall buildings? Is anybody, other than a developer, demanding more of them? Did any candidate for city council run on a platform of bringing more tall buildings to the city? No, is the answer to that last one and yet city council seems to have all but given up when faced with yet another request to build something considerably taller than what we thought was allowed. Councillors are reduced

to arguing about which design has the prettier balconies, while the question of how tall the building is hangs in the air, undebated. Other preposterous statements, such as the claim that new towers won’t cause increased traffic and parking difficulties go unchallenged. They fly in the face of common sense, but common sense somehow vanishes when planningspeak is the language of the day. It is assumed, perhaps, that the developers will win in the end, given the notoriously pro-developer record of the Ontario Municipal Board, to which any appeal would be directed. And even now, when the OMB has shown a willingness to take a contrary position, the skyline climbs mostly uncontested and the shadows lengthen across the neighborhoods. The argument in favour of all this is familiar: we need more people living near the centre of the city to prevent urban sprawl and a larger influx of cars. The argument against is familiar too: the city is going back on a bargain it made with its residents and who’s to say that those new people living near the centre of the city won’t bring their cars anyway? What we don’t want is to wind up like Toronto, where new condo towers pop up like dandelions and cars choke the streets. And don’t forget the construction period brings considerable inconvenience to the neighbourhood for many months at a time. For the moment, opposition to higher rises is coming mostly from community groups, who lack financial resources and whose credibility is usually under attack. It would be interesting to see the politicians take a larger role. In the next election campaign, would anybody dare question the very idea of growth, the assumption we all seem to share that a city can never get too big? Would anybody run on a platform that says the city is big enough and our resources should be put into improving the lives of those who live here, rather than building higher for those who don’t live here yet? That would be something to see. It would spark a useful debate about what a city should be and for whom.

New names for GRC, Richmond arena? Laura Mueller

laura.meuller@metroland.com

EMC news - The Goulbourn Recreation Complex and the Richmond arena are two city-owned facilities which may get new names under the city’s Community Champions program. They are two of a number of recreation facilities on which the city is focusing its marketing efforts to attract a sponsor who, for an annual payment to the city, will have the facility bear its name. Other facilities include the Kanata Recreation Complex, the Nepean Sportsplex, the Kanata Leisure Centre and Wave Pool and the Canterbury Recreation Complex. This is being done under the city’s new Community Champions program, a

marketing initiative to seek sponsorships for city recreation facilities in exchange for naming rights. Annual payments will range from $5,000 to $75,000-plus depending on the facility. Companies, foundations, groups or even individuals are able to participate in this Community Champions program. These sponsorship opportunities have been available since Ottawa city council approved the policy in 2005 but these opportunity were never actively marketed by the city, so there were few who became sponsors. Facilities that have been named to honour someone under the city’s commemorative naming policy will not be available for sponsorship or renaming. This would include the Johnny Leroux Stittsville

Community Arena in Stittsville. “Those who choose to become Community Champions create a lasting legacy through their investment in their city in ways that benefit residents where they live, where they work and where they play,” said mayor Jim Watson in promoting the Community Champions program. The program will benefit the city by creating a new revenue stream while the sponsoring company, group or individual will benefit from a high profile marketing opportunity. Any city-owned facility is available for naming under this Community Champions program but the city will be focusing its marketing on several sites including the Goulbourn Recreation Complex and the Richmond arena.

Awesome fireworks display with cascading colours John Curry john.curry@metroland.com

EMC news - Canada Day in Stittsville ended with a sky echoing with thunder-like booms and filled with cascading colours. Yes, it was an awesome fireworks display that was the climax of celebrations hosted by the Stittsville Village Association and held on the front grounds of Sacred Heart High School. The wrapup fireworks display, which drew several thousand to the high school and adjacent Goulbourn Recreation Complex, saw fireworks soar high in the darkening sky before spilling their glistening, colourful load in an array of cascading starbursts, some red, some green, some silver, some white. But no matter what the colour or form, they were all awe-inspiring to those watching from the ground. Some behaved like giant sparklers; others swirled as if never-ending; some soared high while others unleashed their glowing payloads closer to the earth. But whether high or low, all lit up the sky and brought wonderment to the eyes of onlookers. And don’t forget the big bangs and booms that accompanied these soaring fireworks. It was a show of not only light but also sound. The fireworks brought an end to the Stittsville Canada Day celebrations which for-

mally began at 3 p.m. when dignitaries from all three levels of government – federal, provincial and municipal – participated in the opening ceremony that began the more than six hours of entertainment and activities leading up to the 9:45 p.m. fireworks display. Piped to the stage by a Stittsville Legion colour guard led by bagpiper Jordan McConnell of Stittsville on the sunny, warm day blessed with a blue sky dotted with puffy white clouds overhead and a gentle breeze providing a touch of Mother Nature’s air conditioning, the dignitaries joined in the singing of O Canada led by Morgan O’Grady and then enjoyed the melodic rendition of God Save The Queen by Kyle and Joel Curry before addressing the slowly assembling crowd. Carleton-Mississippi Mills MP Gordon O’Connor, in his remarks, reminded everyone that they were fortunate to live in the greatest country in the world where many others want from around the world want to come. “We live in the greatest country in the world,” he said, noting Canada’s mountains, lakes, prairies, Arctic areas and, most importantly, its people. Carleton-Mississippi Mills MPP Jack MacLaren struck on the same theme, calling Canada the most wonderful

country in the world, settled by our forefathers and defended over the years by our military. “Happy Canada Day, everybody,” he proclaimed. City of Ottawa mayor Jim Watson, making his ninth of 14 appearances at events across the city on this particular Canada Day, reminded the crowd that while Canada is considered the most liveable country in the world, the city of Ottawa has been judged as the top city in Canada. Residents of Ottawa live in the best city in the greatest country, he said. City of Ottawa Stittsville ward councillor Shad Qadri, in his remarks, praised the Canada Day celebrations in Stittsville, citing them as an example of what Canada is all about, namely offering citizens communities where they can work, grow and also play. A ceremony to cut specially made Canada Day cakes involving these dignitaries followed these on-stage remarks. Then, it was on to the entertainment and activities that filled out the schedule until the late evening fireworks. On stage entertainment included magician Adam Zimmerman who got the spectators, both young and not so young, involved in his hijinks. He was followed by the Stittsville Concert Band, high-

land dancer Michaela McConnell, the band The Rogues, puppeteer Ben Durocher, Amos and the Transparent, the Chad Wolfe Dancers, the Curry brothers and the band Take Five. Games and activities on the grounds included a miniature golf game, bubble blowing thanks to Dandelion Kids consignment shop and the Goulbourn Museum’s photo booth. The Stittsville District Lions Club was on hand, with a blue tent emblazoned with the Club name. There was a whole sea of inflatables set up including a giant slide, a lengthy obstacle course, a castle and a sports bounce. Youngsters had a ball sliding down and bouncing around in these inflatables. A miniature train offered rides around the site, chugging back and forth in front of the high school. The Knights of Columbus of Holy Spirit Parish in Stittsville were on hand to offer a variety of food to those attending these Canada Day celebrations. The Stittsville Village Association is able to put on this annual Canada Day celebration in Stittsville thanks to the generosity of government, local businesses and individuals. Among the supporters of this year’s event were Canadian Heritage, the city of Ottawa, Mattamy Homes, Mon-

New custom-made sign at Tony’s Chip Wagon John Curry john.curry@metroland.com

EMC news - Canada Day 2012 was a sign-iďŹ cant day for Tony’s Chip Wagon in Richmond. That’s because the chip wagon, a ďŹ xture on Perth Street just west of the Richmond Bakery since 1997, unveiled a new sign at noon on Canada Day, Sunday, July 1st. And it was not just any sign – it is a custom-made sign weighing 150 pounds or so, with everything made from scratch. It is built to last, with everything glued together and held together by over 100 screws. The lettering on the sign features three coats of paint to ensure its long life. The goal is to see the sign 100 years from now in an an-

tique auction, says Cameron Kalles who made the sign with the guidance of John Martin, who showed the inexperienced Cameron just how it needed to be done. It took Cameron hours and hours to make the sign with its distinguishing feature being a characterized hamburger – and not just one, but two, one on each side of the double-sided sign. Each hamburger features a unique facial expression. This was the ďŹ rst time that Cameron made such a sign but he now admits that he is addicted to sign making and has a couple more underway. These signs, in the same style as this new roadside one, will be erected on the chip wagon, giving the whole site a uniďŹ ed look from a signage point of

view. Cameron feels that the new signage at the chip wagon will give Richmond something else of which it can be proud, noting that community residents already get their food there. The new roadside sign, which replaced the chip wagon’s previous sign which was starting to peel and needed replacement, has a barn board appearance. Indeed, Cameron used barn boards from an old barn that the late Tony ElKassis owned. Cameron came to the sign making job thanks to John Martin, his sign making mentor and a longtime friend of the El-Kassis family. The new roadside sign was lifted in place on a new steel

frame all by hand – a simple matter of leverage, Cameron says. After the new roadside sign was formally unveiled at noon on Canada Day, Cameron formally christened it, much like happens at the launching of a ship, by smashing a bottle of ketchup – Heinz, of course, which the chip wagon uses – at the base of the steel frame holding the new sign. The El-Kassis family also broke out two bottles of champagne to mark the occasion. The new roadside sign sits at the front of the chip wagon site in the middle of a ower bed which also features an antique red Cockshutt tractor which has been there for a while. For Canada Day, the tractor was draped with a Ca-

nadian ag. Cecile El-Kassis, Tony’s wife who now runs the chip wagon with the help of her daughters, especially Savannah, is overjoyed with the new sign. She is also so appreciative of the support and help from Richmond residents since Tony’s untimely death in July, 2010. Canada Day, July 1st, was a big day for the El-Kassis family. In the evening, they were going to gather with friends at the Malakoff Road farm which Tony had purchased for some socializing and to set off some ďŹ reworks. Tony’s Chip Wagon on Perth Street is a landmark in Richmond, known for good food and friendly service. Tony El-Kassis initially set up the chip wagon in Richmond in the mid-1990’s, ďŹ rst located on Perth Street across from the Richmond Plaza. He then relocated the chip wagon to its current site on the north side of Perth Street in 1997, running it with his wife Cecile and their four daughters – Savannah, Yasmine, Magida and Samira, a real family business. The family moved to Richmond in 2001 from Ottawa. Tony’s Chip Wagon built its reputation on being a chip wagon with a difference – good food, friendly service, a colourful appearance thanks

to ags and owers along the front of the property and even a children’s playground and garden. Tony cultivated an extensive garden at the rear of the chip wagon, covering much of the area where some of the Hyde Park homes now sit. In this garden he grew pumpkins, zucchini, tomatoes, melons and other foods that he loved. Tony started growing giant pumpkins, making his initial efforts at his McBean Street home. As he gained more experience in growing them and thanks to the mentorship of Richmond’s Al Eaton, one of the world’s top giant pumpkin growers, Tony’s giant pumpkins got bigger and bigger. In 2005, for instance, his giant pumpkin at the Richmond Fair weighed in at 925 pounds. That was the same year that he got into growing long gourds, ďŹ rst on a trellis in his home garden and later at the chip wagon site where he built a 63 foot long trellis along one side of the property. Tony El-Kassis died in July, 2010 at the age of 59 but his legacy lives on in Richmond thanks to the continued presence of Tony’s Chip Wagon, a presence that is now even further enhanced thanks to the newly unveiled, unique roadside sign.

Brianna Delaney of Stittsville has been honoured as College Hockey America’s ScholarAthlete of the Year.

for the Robert Morris Colonials as the all-time leader in goals with 53, in assists with 68 and with points 121, as well as with the records for game winning goals and power play goals. The Colonials College Hockey America tournament title this past season capped a landmark season in which the Colonials broke the school records for wins, longest unbeaten streak, longest winning streak and most league points. Although picked to finish last in the league before the season began, the Colonials posted 13 more wins than in the previous season, the largest such improvement in the nation. Brianna Delaney is a graduate of Sacred Heart Catholic High School in Stittsville where she played for the school’s girls hockey team. Her youngster sister Cobina Delaney, who also plays for the Robert Morris University women’s hockey team, also earned College Hockey America All-Academic Team honours with her 3.75 grade point average.

EMC sports - She not only shone on the ice. She also shone in the classroom. That’s why Brianna Delaney of Stittsville, who finished her record-setting career with the Robert Morris University women’s hockey team in Pittsburgh this year, has been honoured as College Hockey America’s Scholar-Athlete of the Year. She shares this honour with teammate Katelyn Scott who has completed her first year with the Robert Morris Colonials. Brianna earned the honour, along with Katelyn, thanks to achieving a 4.0 grade point average during the 2011-2012 academic year. The pair become the first student-athletes from Robert Morris University to claim this honour from College Hockey America. It also represents the first time since College Hockey America was formed in 2002 that two student-athletes from the same team have shared this Scholar-Athlete of the Year honour. College Hockey America’s Scholar-Athlete Award is presented annually to the student-athlete or student-athletes who achieve the highest grade point average over the course of the academic semesters of competition. Brianna, an elementary education major at Robert Morris University, also claimed her third consecutive College Hockey America All-Academic Award. She was one of five players on the Robert Morris University Colonials women’s hockey team to claim a spot on the league’s Academic All-Star Team. This Academic All-Star Team honours half a dozen student-athletes in the College Hockey America conference who post the highest Grade Point Averages (GPA’s) at their respective positions. Robert Morris players grabbed all but one spot on this All-Star team. To qualify for the College Hockey America All-Academic All-Star Team, a player must post a 3.0 GPA or higher in all of the academic periods during which the team was actively competing. The 3.0 GPS is the minimum standard to quality. Brianna had a 4.0 grade point average during the required time period. This past season Brianna scored the game winning goal in Robert Morris University’s College Hockey America championship victory, earning All-Tournament Team honours. She completed her fourth and final year playing

Inukshuk is vandalized John Curry

July 2nd, 2012

john.curry@metroland.com

EMC news - It was the best of mornings. It was the worst of mornings. That was what Thursday morning, June 28 was for Richard and Claire Leger of Stittsville. There was excitement because the couple was presenting the Peace Keeper Award at the Sacred Heart Catholic High School graduation ceremony. This is an award which is given to a student who has demonstrated a peacekeeping approach among peers, a ďŹ tting memorial tribute to Sgt. Marc Leger, Richard and Claire’s son, who was killed, along with three other Canadian soldiers, in a so-called “friendly ďŹ reâ€? incident in Afghanistan in 2002. Every year Richard and Claire present the award at the graduation ceremony and each year there is an outpouring of applause for the presentation. This year it was no different. But while Richard and Claire were doing this on stage before a packed assembly at the Bell Sensplex, they were also lamenting what they had just heard about an hour before the graduation ceremony. And that is that an inukshuk monument built originally by Richard Leger in 2003 and honouring Canada’s fallen soldiers in Afghanistan which just last September was

BLASTING REQUIRED FOR MAPLE GROVE ROAD UPGRADES On May 24th, 2012 a public meeting was held to discuss the proposal upgrades to Maple Grove Road. At this meeting it was mentioned that blasting would be required as part of the road work. (See next page for a location map). Sean MacFarlane, Construction Manager of Land Development for Mattamy Homes, estimated the blasting would take three months because of the close proximity to the homes. To minimize the blasting impact they are doing it in two separate layers. Following the public meeting Mike Green, Senior Project Manager for Mattamy Homes, advised that prior to any blasting taking place their contractor would be required to perform a pre-blast survey of the homes in the area. The surveyors will determine which homes will be impacted and will enter homes, provided they are permitted to do so, to do an existing conditions survey. Homes considered to be close enough to the blasting will have vibration monitors installed, again, with the homeowners’ permission. These help with any claims that may arise as a result of any damage claimed to be from the blasting. Mattamy Homes will be instructing their contractor to notify residents in the area in advance of the pre-blast survey so that, as much as possible, a mutually convenient time can be arranged.

Richard Leger had built the inukshuk to replicate one that had been erected at the Kandahar air ďŹ eld in honour of Sgt. Marc Leger and the three other Canadian soldiers who had died in the “friendly ďŹ reâ€? incident. It stood in the Leger’s front yard until last year when it was donated to the Royal Canadian Legion. It serves as a memorial outside the Legion’s Canadian headquarters

in Kanata, honouring all of Canada’s fallen soldiers in Afghanistan. The inukshuk, with several huge rocks that gave it an overall weight of an estimated 800 to 900 pounds, had been cemented and glued together so that it would not move. Yet the vandals managed to topple it over, with it breaking into several pieces and with its plaque being scratched. The Royal Canadian Legion acted quickly to restore the inukshuk monument and it was repaired and back up by Thursday evening at a cost of probably $1,000. But the vandalism still left both the Royal Canadian Le-

gion and Mr. and Mrs. Leger horriďŹ ed that someone would vandalize a monument honouring Canada’s fallen soldiers in Afghanistan. Richard and Claire Leger appeared on Ron Corbett’s show on CFRA radio last Friday afternoon, June 29 to talk about the incident Richard and Claire Leger have been leaders in honouring the sacriďŹ ces made by Canadian soldiers in Afghanistan. On Canada Day, as in the past, they placed 158 Canadian ags on their lawn, representing the lives of the 158 Canadian soldiers who have lost their lives in Afghanistan over the years.

To assist you in being informed on blasting regulations I encourage you to review the link that follows which outlines the Ontario Provincial Standard Specification (O.P.S.S. 120) – General Specification for the Use of Explosives. This is the applicable regulation governing such activity. See in particular enclosed Annex I, paragraphs 2.0 to 5.0 – which outlines the obligation under which a blasting contractor has to keep residents’ informed (and do pre and post blast survey). http://www.ottawa.ca/calendar/ottawa/citycouncil/ttc/2003/09-17/ACS2003-TUP-INF-0016.htm For further information on this please visit Mattamy’s website: http://www.mattamyhomes.com/ Ottawa/.

FINAL TAX BILL MAIL-OUT Recently, my office received reports from some residents of Stittsville regarding their Final Tax Bills not arriving in time to be paid by the June 21st deadline. After speaking with City Staff I can share the following information with you: 1. The Final Tax Bill mailing for Stittsville was completed, reconciled by the city’s supplier, delivered & accepted into the mail stream by Canada Post (Kanata Station) on Wednesday, May 30th covering 9,701 bills. 2. The stamp from Canada Post, although difficult to read, does appear to state June 21st. The question for residents to Canada Post should be ‘where did this mail go between the drop off of May 31st and the processing date of June 21st?’ 3. A review of tax accounts in the area represent that the majority of taxpayers paid their tax account on or before the due date. 4. The city’s responsibility is to ‘mail’ Tax bills with 21 days notice of the due date. To assist taxpayers, the City advertises that the tax bills have been mailed and what the due date is. This was done twice in the Ottawa Citizen; Saturday June 9th and Wednesday, June 20th. No call was received from these clients to advise us that they had not received their tax bills. Since no error has been made by the city, there is no adjustment that can be done to the penalty. I encourage you to speak with Canada Post regarding the mail-out.

Despite the complete destruction of two monitoring stations in the Upper Poole Creek Wetland, volunteer monitors will continue to collect water level data as part of a community based program led by Mississippi Valley Conservation (MVC). The monitoring program, started in May, is driven by a dedicated corps of local residents who are working with the conservation authority to collect valuable water level data to be used to identify and track changes to the wetland over the long term. The Upper Poole Creek Wetland monitoring program stemmed from concern about low water levels in the fall of 2011.

REMINDER ABOUT FIRE SAFETY As the outdoor season is ramping up, I would like to share some information about fire safety and restrictions. Some residents may be unaware of the ‘fire restrictions’ in the area and that Ottawa in general is a ‘fire free zone.’ Fires can only be started with a fire permit otherwise a $100 fine applies.

For the complete ‘Open Air Fire’ By-law citation please consult this City of Ottawa website link: http://www.ottawa.ca/residents/bylaw/a_z/open_air/index_en.html. To apply for a permit, you can submit queries to the Fire Chief and ask for special permission in a detailed explanation.

Stittsville News EMC - Thursday, July 5, 2012 23

NEWS In June, Councillor For Hire brought me to Jabulani Vineyard & Winery on Jock Trail Road. This job wasn’t far off from one of my former careers as a bartender and server. Friday, June 22 was an absolutely beautiful day to work outside on the lovely patio at Jabulani. I had the pleasure of working side by side with co-owners Tom & Janet Moul serving samples of their fourteen different varieties of wine. The customers on this day were from as close as down the road and from as far away as British Columbia. The day was capped off with a special group that came to experience all that the winery has to offer. The teachers of St. Phillip’s Catholic School in Richmond enjoyed a tour of the vineyard and samples of the great wine at Jabulani. To any parents out there who have kids that attend St. Phillip’s, the teachers came AFTER school and were quite well behaved the entire time. I first came across Janet & Tom’s piece of paradise in September 2010, several months before their grand opening. I’ve been a big supporter of what they have brought to Rideau-Goulbourn ever since. Having a winery in this area has brought a new kind of tourism to the communities of Richmond and Munster. The success of Jabulani has also spurred on others to contemplate the same type of operation. It’s not impossible that in ten years, there could be as many as five vineyards in this area. Bringing new business to our communities is key to sustaining our small businesses and wineries represent a clientele that may not currently be visiting this area. Not only are people coming to Jabulani, but Janet & Tom are encouraging visitors to buy other local products while they are out here as well. At Jabulani, you can find information about Hobbs Family Meats & Bakery, Anderson Farm, and Alpenblick Farm; all local farms that sell 100% local meats. Combine that with a visit to Richmond Bakery and you’ve got yourself quite the delicious, home grown meal. Rideau-Goulbourn has a lot to offer and Jabulani is a big part of that. If you’ve never been to Jabulani before, they are located at 8005 Jock Trail Road, just off Munster Road, west of Richmond. They are open from 11am-6pm Friday, Saturday & Sunday. Their fourteen different wines are made with grapes grown on site, such as Frontenac Gris and Marquette, which are then blended with Niagara grapes to create some great wines with local flavour. One unique product is their new strawberry wine, created with strawberries from Richmond Nursery. Thanks to Tom & Janet for inviting to spend a day as your employee. The Councillor For Hire series has been a great way to learn more about Rideau-Goulbourn, its businesses and its residents and I appreciate the opportunity to spend a day at Jabulani. For more information, please visit www.jabulani.ca. You can also now follow Jabulani on Twitter @Jabulani_Winery.

Blood donor clinics Special to the News

EMC news - Community blood donor clinics are coming up this month in both Stittsville and Richmond. A Canadian Blood Services clinic will be held on Friday, July 20 from 4:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. in the parish hall at St. Philip Catholic Church on Burke Street at the corner of Fortune Street in Richmond. Then, on Monday, July 23, a Canadian Blood Services clinic will be held in the gymnasium at the Goulbourn Recreation Complex on Shea Road in Stittsville, running from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. Those wishing to donate blood at either one of these

clinics can book an appointment online at www.blood. ca or should call 1-888-2DONATE (1-888-236-6283) to book an appointment. Every minute of every day in Canada, someone needs blood and the only way that the blood is available when needed is through the generosity and caring of blood donors who willingly attend community blood donor clinics to donate blood. It often requires many units of blood to help one patient. A car accident victim, for example, can need up to 50 units of blood which means 50 blood donations are needed just to help that one patient.

John Leroux, who was nominated by Gordon and Marjorie Weir, is a sports and volunteer legend in Stittsville. His contribution to the sports life of the Stittsville community was recognized in 2011 when the former Stittsville District Community Centre was renamed as the Johnny Leroux Stittsville Community Arena. Earlier this year, Mr. Leroux received the Lifetime Achievement Award for Volunteerism at the annual Ottawa Sports Awards Banquet. A former Canadian Army national boxing champion, he is a veteran of the Korean War and has been active in the Stittsville Branch of the Royal Canadian Legion where he served 14 years as chair of minor sports for the Branch. He was a hockey referee and ball umpire in the community for years and also coached minor ball and hockey teams. Mr. Leroux could be called the Father of Oldtimers Hockey in Stittsville, as he founded the Stittsville Merchant Selects organization which not only hosted oldtimers tournaments in Stittsville in the 1980’s and 1990’s but participated in national and international tournaments as well.

Family-like atmosphere at Sacred Heart graduation Special to the News

EMC news - Handing out 275 high school graduation diplomas might seem repetitive but it was certainly not routine at this year’s 12th annual graduation ceremonies for Sacred Heart Catholic High School. While many students strode across the stage at the Bell Sensplex and received their diplomas and congratulations from Sacred Heart principal Cindy Owens in a traditional way, a number departed from the norm, marking this milestone in their education in unique ways. All of the graduates received approving cheers from their classmates, imparting a cohesive, family-like atmosphere to the otherwise formal occasion. Graduate Erik Barcotti flung his hands up in the air in celebration after receiving his graduation diploma from principal Owens, with shouts of cheer erupting from his classmates. Graduate Ryan Elchakiell shouted out “I did it” as he accepted his diploma. Classmate Blake Gilchrist performed a little Elvis-like hip swivel on stage after receiving his diploma from the principal. Adam Iob’s appearing on stage brought forth a standing ovation by several of his classmates, celebrating his graduation achievement. Emmanuel Kwofie was another who threw his hands up in the air on receiving his diploma while Darren Leach yelled “Got her done” after getting his hands on his diploma. Applause grew steadily for Sean Logan as he slowly made his way across the stage to receive his diploma from principal Owens, with the applause reaching a climax as Sean stopped

momentarily before going down the stairs at the front of the stage. Adam O’Connor was another who received a thunderous cheer as he received his graduation diploma while Jake Oliver gave principal Owens a big hug as he received his diploma. Jordan Taylor did a dance on stage on receiving the diploma while Natalie Tremblay shouted “I did it, mom” as she held up her diploma up in the air while losing her mortarboard as it fell off her head. Zihan Wang received a loud cheer from his classmates, with a number giving him a standing ovation. Michael Wysocki gave a finger salute of approval after receiving his diploma. There were also birthday greetings shouted to graduates Hannah Dykes-Gruden, Jake Milroy and Laura Thibedeau, adding to the familylike atmosphere. It all seemed, indeed, like a big family celebration, with 275 “brothers and sisters” enjoying each other’s success. And after all the diplomas were handed out and the graduates were instructed to move the tassel on their mortarboards from one side to the other as per tradition, it set off an air show, with the mortarboards soaring into the air as the graduates celebrated their achievement by tossing them high above them in a spontaneous and universal action. In her remarks at the ceremony, principal Cindy Owens praised this year’s graduates as people who want to make a difference in the world around them. She described the school’s 2011-2012 graduating class as a group which cares deeply about social justice issues, citing

their initiatives such as providing school supplies for Africa, making sandwiches for the Shepherds of Good Hope mission and raising over $30,000 for various charities in the school’s annual cake auction. Ottawa Catholic School Board trustee John Curry, reciting a poem entitled “Husky Heroes,” praised the graduating class on their accomplishments. Among the lines of the poem were the following: “You have learned how to read, How to calculate, how to lead, You have learned how it’s done, every little bit, With Gospel values at the core of all of it. That’s what makes you not only a graduate, oh yes, But a Catholic school graduate, simply the best.” In his remarks at the ceremony, Ottawa R0011294477

Catholic School Board superintendent Greg Mullen reminded the graduates to retain a sense of community as they move on with their lives. He reminded them that their values are important and that giving smiles and hugs to people are things that do not cost anything but that mean so much to those receiving them. The ceremony also featured the presentation of 38 awards recognizing individual students from a wide spectrum of activities and qualities, from athletics to academic achievement to spiritual growth to excellence in various subject areas. Class valedictorian Mackenzie Foulkes, who was chosen by her classmates for the role, thanked the parents and teachers on behalf of the graduates for all that they have done in their lives. She promised that the graduates will each strive to be the best that they can be as they go through life.

Poor farmer indeed who can’t feed his family

MARY COOK Mary Cook’s Memories From now, until the crisp fall days ďŹ lled the air with the scent of burning leaves, our house smelled of simmering sugar and tart vinegar coming off the Findlay Oval. It was pickling and preserving time. And the smells hung onto our clothes for days as if we had been sprayed and we would notice just about everyone at Northcote School smelled the same way. The huge vegetable garden would ďŹ nally show the results of Mother’s constant attention and yellow beans, carrots, beets, cucumbers, blood-red tomatoes and just about any other vegetable you could name, were all ready for picking. As well, wild strawberries, mostly found along the Canadian PaciďŹ c Railway tracks that snaked through our farm, would already have been turned into jam. Raspberries, found growing in great abundance in a secluded spot in the dense woods on the property, were hauled out in milk cans and now sat in jars and sealers of every description. The jams were thick and sweet, but the preserves were a different matter. They were sweet too, but the berries always oated to the top of the jars, leaving thick, sweet syrup on the bottom, which I was known to drink right out of the jar when Mother wasn’t looking. Every glass jar that had come into the house over the past months would be saved for this time of year. Washed thoroughly, then boiled in the big copper kettle on the stove, they were of every shape and size. And always there was a small pot of wax on the very back of the stove, usually on the reservoir, ready to pour over the jars holding the jams and pickles. It was unusual if Mother had to buy new wax every year, because since the last pickling and preserving session when the wax was removed from a jar, it was rinsed off and put in a cardboard box in the summer kitchen and reused time and again. Goodness knows how many years the same piece of wax had made the rounds, melted down again and again. Last year’s crop of preserves and pickles, stacked on a swinging shelf in what passed for a cellar, had gotten low. Fresh sheets of the Renfrew Mercury would be folded and placed on the shelves, ready for the new batches of jars and sealers. What we called the cellar, wasn’t really a cellar at all. While most of our neighbours had a dug-out you got to from a trap door in their kitchen, you could only get into ours from outside the house. Two big at doors, on a slant from the ground to the side of the house, had to be hoisted and laid back to get down into our cellar, which was nothing more than a sandy pit an ancestor of Father’s had dug out a century before. A swinging shelf was above the sand, and attached to the oorboards of the underside of the house. It was a dark, dank place that scared the starch out of me every time I was sent down. Vegetables were buried in the sand and my brother Emerson further amed my fears by telling me he knew for a fact it was where snakes spent the long cold winters!

Mother’s recipes were ones she was given by Aunt Bertha Thom from the farm next to us or Mrs. Beam the wonderful neighbour, who as well as treating everyone in the Northcote area for minor afictions, was also known for her dill pickles and spiced crabapples, both of which always won prizes at the Renfrew fair. Mother had come from New York where pickles, jams and jellies were bought at the grocery store and “doing downâ€? vegetables and fruits was as foreign to her as making homemade lye soap, all of which she mastered with the help of neighbours. It didn’t take her long to catch on to harvesting the garden either. There was scarcely a meal back then that didn’t have Father’s favourite pickles in a bowl on the table. He said no dinner was complete without chili sauce or yellow beans done in brine.

Mother could serve up turnips, potatoes and even a bowl of sauerkraut, but Father always asked; “Got any of that chili sauce and those yellow beans?� My sister Audrey would jump up and dump out a good portion of each and put it on the table. Back then, the Depression was all around us. There was no money for frivolity. We learned not to ask for something as simple as new hair ribbons or store-bought underwear or a toy we may have seen in the Five and Dime Store in Renfrew. We were barely able to buy coal oil for the lamps or a needed piece of harness or gas for the old Model T. But our table was always full. Vegetables, preserves, sauerkraut and an apple barrel in the summer kitchen and a smoke house full of meat ... and I heard it said more than once, “it’s a poor farmer indeed who cannot feed his family.�

What’s up in Richmond EMC news – Friends of Hospice Ottawa made over $42,250 after expenses at its recent Girls Night Out event at the Richmond arena. Girls Night Out will be relocating next year because of planned renovations taking place at the Richmond arena. No new location has yet been announced…Longtime Richmond real estate agent Bonnie Jensen is one of only 24 Re/Max real estate agents in the Ottawa area who have received the Re/Max Platinum Club Award for being the top Re/Max agents in the Ottawa area and among the most productive Re/Max agents in Canada…There’s a reading challenge that has been launched this summer involving the Richmond and North Gower branches of the Ottawa Public Library. Karen Craig, the public service supervisor for both branches, has challenged the young readers registered with the TD Summer Reading Club at the branches to see which branch has the most voracious young readers by seeing which branch will have the most books read by youth involved in the TD Summer Reading Club over the summer….Former longtime South Carleton High School teacher James Prebble, now retired and living in Prescott, has taken up the pen and is an author with two recently published volumes of short stories, “Near As I Can Recall” and “Home-Grown and HandMe-Down.” These books, which Mr. Prebble says offer a unique “blue collar” perspective on life, are published by Brandon Press of Oxford Mills. The stories are drawn largely from three sources: his summer work experiences while in high school and university, winters

spent in the southeastern United States after his retirement; and reminiscences shared with his father, a forestry entomologist. Some of the stories are purely fictional, some are based closely on his own experiences and some are connected to experiences told to him by his father. The stories are meant to portray characters who are working folks, capturing how they deal with everyday themes and situations. Mr. Prebble is now working on a third volume of these stories. Mr. Prebble taught at South Carleton High School for 26 years. His wife Elaine taught at Richmond Public School. Mr. Prebble can be contacted via email at Jeprebble@ aol.com …Cedarstone Homes is seeking an extension to the draft plan of subdivision approval for the third phase of the latest development in its Richmond Oaks subdivision. This latest part of the Richmond Oaks subdivision involves 118 single family lots, most with 20 metre frontages. Draft approval for this threephase subdivision was granted on Sept. 8, 2009 and since that time, two phases consisting of 82 of the 118 lots have been registered, with construction of houses underway. However, the final phase of this subdivision will not be registered before the draft approval lapses on Sept. 8 of this year. As a result, a three-year extension of the draft approval of the plan of subdivision is being sought from the city of Ottawa….Sometime during the overnight hours of a recent Friday, a thief rifled through an unlocked vehicle on King Street, stealing an MP3 player, some change, house keys and a set of car keys…

Chocolate cake and raspberries great dessert

PAT TREW Food ‘n’ Stuff

This raspberry-flavoured chocolate cake makes a simple and delicious dessert for a summer supper or party. The fudge cake can be made a day ahead, then sliced and arranged on individual serving plates. Arrange some fresh raspberries beside each piece then add a scoop of frozen vanilla yogurt or ice cream. This is light and refreshing. This recipe calls for raspberry pancake syrup. Be sure you get what is labelled as “pancake syrup.” There are other types of raspberry syrup, which are very thin and meant for mixing with water or summer drinks. They just don’t work in this recipe, and neither does raspberry jam. I’ve tried them both. Only raspberry pancake syrup will do. Chocolate Raspberry Cake 4 squares semi-sweet baking chocolate 2 tbsp. white sugar 1/2 cup raspberry pancake syrup 1/2 cup butter or block margarine, softened enough at room temperature to mix easily 1 1/4 cups white sugar 3 eggs 1 2/3 cups flour 1 1/2 tsp. baking powder 1/4 tsp. salt 1/3 cup milk Butter and flour an 20-centimetre cake pan. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the chocolate, raspberry syrup and two tablespoons of

sugar. Microwave on high for one minute, stir and then microwave on high for another minute. The mixture will be hot enough to finish melting the chocolate. Stir until the chocolate has completely melted, then set aside to cool to room temperature. In a large bowl, use an electric mixer to cream the butter, or margarine, with the white sugar. Add the eggs, one a time, and beat until thoroughly combined. In a medium bowl, combine the flour, baking powder and salt. Add about one-third of the flour to the creamed egg mixture. Using the electric mixer, beat until the flour is completely incorporated. Add about two tablespoons of the milk, and mix again until well combined. Continue adding the flour and milk alternately to the batter, beating well after each addition. Occasionally, scrape down the sides of the bowl. Add the chocolate and raspberry syrup mixture to the batter. With a spatula or long-handled spoon, stir this into the batter until there are no streaks of white or chocolate. Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan. Bake at 350 F (175 C) for 55 to 60 minutes. Check for doneness by inserting a toothpick in the center of the cake. If the toothpick comes out sticky, bake for another five to 10 minutes, then check again. When the cake is done, remove it from the oven. Set the pan on a wire rack, and cool completely before serving.

Society also runs an annual photo contest and holds regular monthly meetings featuring guest speakers. For more information about the Goulbourn Township Historical Society, please contact Historical Society president Barbara Bottriell at 613-836-2305.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank St. Paul’s United Church, Carp and all my dear friends and neighbours for the lovely sympathy cards, visits and phone calls that I received at the time of my sister Lena Slattery’s death. It really helps when you know that you have so many friends thinking about you. You are all so very kind and thoughtful. It really helped me to bear the loss of Lena. Thank you again – you shall never be forgotten for your love and kindness.

The Male and Female Athletic Awards were presented to Cayden Platana and Michaela Tourigny respectively. These awards are presented to one male and one female student who have demonstrated their ability to excel in the school’s physical education program while displaying skill, determination, sportsmanship and team spirit.

EMC news - Talk, involvement, reputation, prayer. Grade six students at St. Stephen Catholic School in Stittsville are now armed with these four key concepts as they proceed on to their high school years at Sacred Heart Catholic High School thanks to their principal Bob Santos. At the school’s grade six school leaving ceremony on Tuesday, June 26, Mr. Santos gave the students advice related to these four key concepts, saying that the advice would lead to success in high school. Focusing on these four points in his principal’s message, Mr. Santos reminded the 46 grade six students that he would be quizzing them in the future about the four points, so they should make note of them and adhere to them. “Talk” was the first point with Mr. Santos urging the students in their high school years to talk with their friends, teachers, guidance counselors and, most importantly, their parents. Share with your parents all about your relationships and about happenings in both your good and bad times, he urged. “Get involved” was his second piece of advice to the students as they proceed on to high school. Whether it is sports or drama or band or another activity, such involvement will help make new friends. In addition, being involved will help the high school staff to get to know you, he said. “Reputation” was the focus of Mr. Santos’ third point for the students. He said that reputation, namely what people say about you, will stay with you throughout life. This means that you must be very careful about how your reputation develops not only in school but also in the community and in the church. “Pray” was Mr. Santos’ fourth piece of advice to the students, urging them to find time to pray, hopefully each day. He said that prayer can help a person get through many things in life. Praising the students for having grown academically, physically, spiritually and emotionally in their years at St. Stephen, Mr. Santos urged them to use what they have learned and apply it to life in the future, noting that their faith will assist them in what they take on in the years ahead. He thanked the parents for instilling in their children an attitude of respect and hard work and for their support of the school over the past year. Mr. Santos presented each of the grade six students with their certificate of achievement to mark their success at St. Stephen as they now go on to grade seven and their high school years at Sacred Heart Catholic High School in Stittsville. Besides the presentation of these certificates of achievement, a number of special individual awards were presented at the ceremony. Peter Acton, representing the Kiwanis Club of Goul-

Trio of overnight thefts from parked vehicles Special to the News

EMC news - Vehicles on Dalewood Crescent in the Traditions subdivision at the south end of Stittsville were targeted by thieves overnight on a recent Friday/Saturday.

Sometime overnight, an unidentiďŹ ed thief broke into a locked vehicle on Dalewood Crescent, stealing a small tool kit and a ashlight. Scratch marks found on the vehicle suggest that the thief used some sort of device to open

the driver’s side door. Sometime that same night, a second locked vehicle on Dalewood Crescent was broken into, with two CD’s stolen. The vehicle was entered through the driver’s side door, with the thief rummaging through the vehicle’s centre console.

That same night, sometime after 3 a.m. on the Saturday, two locked vehicles at the same residence were rummaged through, with some electronic items stolen. There were no signs of forced entry. The thief stole an Apple iPod Touch, an auxiliary cable and a cell phone charger.
