Story with ‘feel good’ ring to it John Curry

john.curry@metroland.com

It’s a ring that means a lot to Don Band of Stittsville. It not only recognizes and commemorates his 36 years of service as an Ottawa professional firefighter but also it was given to him by his wife Peggy. But somehow, the gold ring slipped off his finger and it was lost. He thought that he had perhaps lost it while cutting the grass on the grounds of St. Paul’s Anglican Church on Young Road in Kanata. He searched through the grass clippings and raked the property, hoping to find the lost ring. He was even helped by others in this search, all to no avail. Things looked bleak and some days passed. Don offered a reward and lamented that the ring would probably end up in some pawn shop. Then he got a call from Rev. John Bridges, the rector at St. Paul’s, who told him to check the website of the Retired Ottawa Fire Fighters Association as he was sure that the ring was shown there as having been

found. Don checked out the website and, lo and behold, there was a picture of his lost ring along with an explanation of the circumstances of its being found. He phoned about the ring and made arrangements to get it back. “I was jumping up and down,� he says on learning that he would be getting the ring back. And besides getting his ring back, he was amazed and surprised when he heard the story of how his ring had been found and how its finding got on the Retired Ottawa Fire Fighters Association website. It turns out that 12 year old Joseph Hart, who lives on a nearby street in Stittsville, had been walking by the community mailbox on his way to a dog walking duty when he spotted something shining on the pavement near the mailbox. It turned out to be a ring, with a firefighters emblem on it as well as some dates engraved and the initials “DB� on the inside. Joseph showed the ring to a neighbouring firefighter, Kody Musselman, who took photos of it and took steps to post the photos and story on the Retired Ottawa Fire Fighters Association website. This led to Don Band being alerted to the posting by his rector and John Curry/Metroland then seeing it on the website and mak- Joseph Hart, left, points to the location where he found the retired firefighter’s ring of Don ing contact with the Hart family and Band, right, near a community mailbox in Stittsville where it some how came off Don’s then getting the ring back. finger, falling on the pavement.

Pre-School to Professional

Off-Broadway debut for Ben Durocher Retired Ben Durocher considers himself the luckiest person in the world. That’s because Ben, who grew up in Stittsville, is not only making his acting debut in New York City but he has landed the roles of Princeton and Rod in the musical Avenue Q which personally is his most favourite show of all time. He had performed the roles of Princeton and Rod back in 2012 at the Skylight Theatre

in Milwaukee, Wisconsin and feels it a dream come true to be able to make his off-Broadway debut playing these roles again. He began performing in Avenue Q at the New World Stages in New York on Monday, July 20 with a contract taking him through to mid-October. With Avenue Q running in New York City since 2003 and off-Broadway at the New World Stages since 2009, Ben is hopeful that the musical will continue its long run and that he will be a part of the cast going forward.

It was determined that the ring must have slipped off Don’s finger when he was checking his mail at the community mailbox. Don admits that the day that he got his ring back was a great day for him and is particularly impressed that a young person like Joseph Hart, on finding the ring, took such steps to try to locate its owner. He can’t say enough about the actions of Joseph in this situation. Don notes that the ring is very important for him, not only because it is quite valuable but more importantly because it represents the 36 years (1965-2001) that he served as

When Don retired from the fire service in 2001, these rings were not available for retiring firefighters. But then these rings became available and so for Christmas, his wife Peggy purchased the ring for him. Don is also happy to have the ring back because he hopes to pass it on to a son in the future. “It’s all good,� Don says about this lost ring experience. He has not only got his ring back but his faith in today’s youth has been strengthened because of the actions of Joseph Hart who found the ring and then took steps to find its owner.

Ben Durocher playing roles of Princeton and Rod in musical ‘Avenue Q’ Continued from page 3

Ben got the role of Princeton and Rod in Avenue Q after the spot opened up in the production. He had the opportunity to sing for the musical director of the production at the New World Stages theatre. This audition plus his previous experience playing the roles of Princeton and Rod in Milwaukee led to an offer to join the cast. Ben has also worked a number of times with the musical’s resident director John Tartaglia who was the original actor to play the role of Princeton and Rod in Avenue Q. He is familiar with Ben’s work and talents, something which no doubt helped Ben land the Avenue Q roles. Ben’s parents, Sandy Durocher and Cindy Beauchamp of Stittsville, travelled to New York City and were in the audience for his first performance in this off-Broadway production of Avenue Q on Monday, July 20. Their attendance made it a very special day, Ben says in an email. Recently Ben has had a couple of performance gigs. About a year ago, he finished up a run as Woody in “Toy Story: The Musical� on board the Disney Wonder, a ship that is part of the Disney Cruise Line. He followed up this by performing in a production of Mary Poppins in Little Rock, Arkansas. And most recently, before landing the Avenue Q roles, Ben spent a little over a month working at the Jim Henson Company’s New York City workshop. For Ben to be involved with the Jim Henson Company which is renowned for its puppetry due to its founder the late Jim Henson who was involved with the children’s educational TV show Sesame Street and for The Muppet Show with its characters such as Kermit the Frog and Ernie and now with Avenue Q which uses puppetry in a musical theatre context should come as no surprise because Ben made and performed with puppets in his youth in Stittsville. He has performed with puppets at the Puppet Festival in Almonte. In his youth in Stittsville, he also had a musical theatre presentation which he performed at various venues including seniors residences such as the Granite Ridge Long Term Care facility in Stittsville. When he was a student at Sacred Heart High School before going on to Canterbury High School, Ben played a leading role in the school’s production of the Anne of Green Gables musical. So, Ben has always loved both puppetry and musical theatre. That’s why the musical Avenue Q excites him so much because it is a musical that uses puppets. Of course, Avenue Q is also a very good musical.

It won Tony Awards for Best Musical, Best Book of a Musical and Best Original Score. It won the 2003 Lucille Lortel Award for Outstanding New Musical. Ben feels that Avenue Q is “uproariously funny, irreverent, raunchy and truly full of heart.� He observes in his email that “as an actor it’s a blast to tell a story that can make an audience laugh and cry!� Ben does not know how his work in this off-Broadway musical will affect his career in the theatre. He does not know if it will lead to anything else in the future but right now he is just living in the moment. He is extremely grateful to be employed and performing in a show that he loves with what he terms “a really amazing cast of actors.� “It’s a dream come true,� he writes in his email. Avenue Q is a musical in two acts that addresses and satirizes the issues and anxieties associated with entering adulthood. The musical is notable for its use of puppets, animated by unconcealed puppeteers, who perform on stage alongside human actors. The musical Avenue Q opened off-Broadway in March 2003 and transferred to Broadway in July 2003 where it won three Tony Awards, spawned Las Vegas and West End productions, two national tours and a variety of international productions. In 2009, the musical ended its Broadway run, with its 2,534 performances ranking it 23rd on the list of longest running shows in Broadway history. After the end of its Broadway run, it then re-opened off-Broadway at New World Stages in Oct. 2009 where it has been presented ever since. Avenue Q is unique is that the cast consists of three human characters and 11 puppet characters who interact as if human, Sesame Street-style. The puppets are animated and voiced by actor/puppeteers who are present, unconcealed, right on stage but who are “invisible� relative to the story line. The puppets and human characters completely ignore the puppeteers and the audience is expected to do so as well. Avenue Q tells the story of a recent college grad named Princeton who moves into a shabby New York apartment all the way out on Avenue Q. There is meets Kate, the girl next door; Rod, the Republican; Trekkie, the internet sexpert; Lucy The Slut; and others who all help Princeton finally discover his purpose in life. Ben grew up in Stittsville, attending A. Lorne Cassidy Elementary School and then Sacred Heart High School before going on to Canterbury High School. He then attended the University of Cincinnati which has a renowned musical theatre program. Since graduating, he has been working on and off at various jobs in the theatre in the United States.

Ottawa’s Odyssey Theatre is supporting Tysen Lefebvre of Stittsville and his “Mission To A Million� campaign. Odyssey Theatre, which is best known for its “Theatre under the Stars� performances every summer in Strathcona Park in Ottawa, is holding a special matinee performance of this summer’s production “The Things We Do For Love� this Sunday, Aug. 2 at 3 p.m., with the proceeds going to Tysen’s “Mission To A Million� in support of Make-A-Wish Eastern Ontario. “Odyssey Theatre has a long history of partnering with organizations that give back to the community,� said Odyssey Theatre general manager Dana Uzarevic. “In celebration of our 30th anniversary season, we’re proud to align ourselves with meaningful organizations like Make-A-Wish to do what we can to support young visionaries like Tysen and help him get closer to his goal.� And Tysen likewise is thrilled with this support from the Odyssey Theatre. “I think it’s so cool that for their 30th anniversary, Odyssey chose to help me in my Mission to give 100 kids their wishes through the MakeA-Wish Foundation,� Tysen said. “Giving other kids hope to tackle their medical difficulties is such an important cause and I’m glad to see the theatre community taking part.� It has all happened after Odyssey Theatre learned about Tysen’s “Mission To A Million� campaign through an administrator working with the theatre company who just happened to be Tysen’s sister-in-law Jackie Lefebvre. To help celebrate its 30th anniversary, Odyssey Theatre was looking for ways to give back to the community. The Odyssey Theatre Board and staff were moved by the story of Tysen’s Mission and decided to lend support by donating the proceeds of a matinee performance to help the campaign along. This special matinee performance of “The Things We Do For Love� will take place this Sunday, Aug. 2 at 3 p.m. at Strathcona Park in Ottawa. There will be specially priced tickets for this particular matinee performance, namely $30 for adults and $15 for children under 12 years of age. In addition, Tysen and a team of “Mission To A Million� volunteers will be at Strathcona Park that afternoon to sell “Mission To A Million� merchandise both before the performance and during the intermission. Tickets for this special matinee performance in support of Tysen’s campaign can be purchased now through the website www.OdysseyTheatre.ca, by going to Eventbrite.ca, by calling 613-232-8407 or by emailing boxoffice@odysseytheatre.ca .

Our athletes made us proud

I

t was so easy to be smug about the Pan Am Games. The Games were in Toronto, the one place in Canada that those of us who live outside of the GTA can stand united in our shared disdain. Here in Ottawa, for the past few years, has there been any more enjoyable sport than laughing at the plight of the sad-sack Maple Leafs? But it wasn’t just those of us outside Toronto who so easily dismissed the Pan Am Games. Media reports in the lead up to the start of the Games were at times gleeful in the way they pointed out that even in Hogtown the event was not creating a buzz among residents. It was just the Pan Am Games after all, not the Olympics. Stories about slow ticket sales were the norm, and much of the coverage from the national media focused on the manner in which the Games were going to be an inconvenience to residents of that city rather than an event to create civic and national pride. And then a funny thing happened, as is often the case, when the Games actually began. Canadians, from coast to coast, embraced the Games and were

delighted by the level of success our athletes accomplished. Athletes from Ottawa and the Valley were among those collecting a record number of Pan Am medals for Canada. It is moments like the 100-watt smile on the face of Nepean born and raised Andrew D’Souza’s face after he beat the top ranked player to make the gold medal match in badminton that we focused on. D’Souza ended up with the Pan Am silver medal for badminton. And let’s not forget Eganville’s Melissa Bishop who won a gold medal in the women’s 800-metre final. This was quite the story, considering she missed a month of training in May due to an ankle injury. For many of the athletes from this area who participatied in the Games, this will be as big as it gets in their career. Some may go on to represent Canada at the Olympics or at world championships, but many won’t. The Pan Am Games is an experience they will cherish for the rest of their lives. Yes, it was easy to be smug about the Games before they began, but now, after the Games, it is all about our athletes, and they all earned their moment to shine.

Answer the robo-call

N

ormally, the second I hear an automated voice on the phone line, I hang up. But this summer parents may want to take a moment to listen or risk your child’s access to school and daycare. Ottawa Public Health has launched a “robo-call� campaign, asking parents to contact the agency with their children’s current immunization records. If you have school-aged children or kids in daycare, you need to get in touch. The agency is asking parents to present updated immunization records for all children prior to the start of the school year. In September, parents who have not responded to the automated

Earlier this year, in the wake of measles outbreaks in hotspots across North America, Ottawa Public Health came under harsh criticism from the provincial government when it was discovered the agency has failed to keep track of immunizations appropriately for more than four years.

Many don’t realize that in order for children to have access to school and daycare programs, parents are required to update the agency every time their child receives a new vaccine. It’s a murky system that hasn’t been properly monitored for years. No surprise then that public health estimates 63,000 Ottawa students do not have up-to-date immunization records. Thus, the robo-calls and a special online form where parents can enter information. So far, the campaign, which seems complicated and onerous, hasn’t been well-received by some parents. After almost hanging up on the confusing robo-call myself, I checked to make sure that my kids are up to date with their immunizations. I realized they were, but their paper yellow cards weren’t.

Fortunately for my family, we’ve had the same doctor since my eldest child was born. Fifteen minutes in the office and the nurse had all three records printed on the doctor’s letterhead – a digital version of the yellow card. Getting it to Ottawa Public Health from there should’ve been easy. Initially, it didn’t appear to be. It’s not a perfect system. But take a wee break from your summer vacation and contact Ottawa Public Health by phone, fax, email or online form to get your child’s immunization record up-to-date.

Authors at Brown’s YIG on Aug. 5 Summertime is reading time and you can not only treat yourself to two new novels but also can hear from both authors and even acquire a signed copy of these two new books on Wednesday, Aug. 5 in the Community Room at Brown’s Your Independent Grocer in Stittsville. That’s when authors Molly O’Connor and Diane LaRocque will be there to talk about their new novels and sign copies of them for readers. Molly O’Connor, who is a long time writer of short stories, a memoir and several children’s book, now has a new novel available “When Secrets Become Lies.” In this novel, Phillipa loses her parents to a tragic accident and while doing the necessary paper work

discovers that there is no record of her own birth. So, she wonders just who is she and she tries to resolve the mystery of her birth. She ends up finding herself in a maledominated world of computer gaming as well as experiencing her first romance. Meanwhile, there is a parallel story unfolding in the novel as Philipa’s parents Elaine and Patrick go on a year long journey across Canada, returning to Ottawa with a newborn. In addition, the reader travels to Canadian destinations as Patrick searches for Elaine’s half sister. If all of this sounds like a lot, you should get the book and take this literary journey that will lead you to the secret of Phillipa’s birth. “I will never be a literary genius but I am a story teller

Molly O’Connor and everyone likes a good story,” author O’Connor says. Author Diane LaRocque, in her new novel “Daniel Martin and the Sea Devil’s Playground,” takes the reader into a world of wickedness and debauchery that exists in Port Royal, Jamaica. Daniel finds that his former friend is now aggressive toward him. Then, murders begin to occur and the tension between them builds. Daniel may be forced to accept the

help of pirate. You have to read the book to discover why all this is happening. So, two great new novels and you will have the opportunity to meet and chat with the authors in person on Wednesday, Aug. 5 from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. in the Community Room at Brown’s Your Independent Grocer on Stittsville Main Street in Stittsville.

NOTICE OF STUDY COMMENCEMENT LEMIEUX ISLAND SHORELINE RESTORATION MUNICIPAL CLASS ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT The City of Ottawa is planning for the restoration of the northwest shoreline on Lemieux Island. Lemieux Island is located in the Ottawa River between Ottawa and Gatineau. It can be accessed through the Rivers Street Bridge from Ottawa. Lemieux Island’s main use is to accommodate one of the City of Ottawa’s Water Purification Plants. The northwest shoreline of the Lemieux Island, adjacent to the lower level parking area, has eroded significantly. The northwest corner of the Island is composed of mostly weak and fragmented limestone, which is causing progressive recession of the shoreline and weakening of several parking lot fence posts which are currently either leaning or have fallen over completely. It is projected that if erosion is allowed to continue, the adjacent green space and parking lot will be impacted. Thus, shoreline stabilization is required to halt and prevent further erosion. The project is being planned as a Schedule ‘B’ undertaking and is to follow the requirements of the Municipal Class Environmental Assessment process (October 2000, as amended in 2007 & 2011). Input and comments are invited for incorporation into the planning and design of this project and will be received until August 6th, 2015. Subject to comments received and the receipt of necessary approvals, the City of Ottawa intends to proceed with the planning and design as defined in the Municipal Class Environmental Assessment process. For further information on this project, please contact the following: Gordon Nix, Project Manager City of Ottawa 100 Constellation Crescent. 6th floor West Ottawa ON K2G 6JB Tel: 613-580-2424, ext 43036 Fax: 613-762-0444 E-mail: Gordon.Nix@ottawa.ca Lisa Marshall, P.

Chalk up another tournament win for the Stittsville Axemen U12 baseball team. Last month, the Axemen won the Titans Invitational Tournament in Montreal. And now, on the weekend of July 17-19, the Axemen captured the championship in the 33rd annual Willie Putnam Memorial Tournament in New York State. The Stittsville Axemen are an Ontario Baseball Association (OBA) U12 baseball team that plays in tournaments, drawing its players from Stittsville and Kanata. This year’s annual Willie Putnam Memorial Tournament held in the towns of Three Mile Bay, Chaumont and Cape Vincent in the Watertown area of New York State drew 28 teams which played in two age divisions. For the Stittsville Axemen, the weekend got off to a positive start with a 16-7 victory over the South Ottawa Blues. Ben “Philly” Phillips struck out seven batters in three innings for the Axemen. James “JJ” Jenkins of the Axemen slammed a bullet down the right field line for an inside-the-park home run in this game. The player of the game as selected by the opposition South Ottawa Blues team was Ben Phillips. The Stittsville Axemen then faced off against a team from Philadelphia. After a scoreless first inning but then the Axemen got going. Every player reached base at some point during the six inning game which was highlighted by a based clearing, three run triple by Matty “Baseball” Roy of the Axemen. See AXEMEN, page 13

Axemen win in New York State Continued from page 12

The Axemen had to turn to Owen “O-Dog” Riedel to ensure the victory, as he came on in the last inning to preserve the win for the Axemen. Philadelphia selected Matthew Roy as the player of the game for the Axemen. Blue skies and warm temperatures prevailed for the championship game on the Sunday against APW, a team made up of select players from three towns in the Syracuse area. The pitching on both teams was stellar. Ryan “Dex” Dexter fanned four batters in his two and one third innings of work on the mound. He did not allow a run. The Axemen got the boost that the team needed when Peyton “Pedro” Hernandez slammed a hard triple over the centre fielder. This began what would be a three run inning for the Axemen. In the fourth inning, the Axemen jumped out to a 7-2 lead, scoring four runs ignited by a solid hit by Ethan “Jellytime” Jelley off a new fireballing pitcher for APW. It was not all offense for the Axemen. The team also played great defense. For instance, there were two hard hit balls down the third base line, one in the second inning and one in the fifth inning, were both handled by Aiden “Curly” Wilson. But this was not an easy victory for the Axe-

men. APW proved to be a determined team which chipped away of what was once a 7-2 lead for the Axemen. It was only a one run lead in the sixth and final inning. Johnny “Bones” Bonnar took the mound for the Axemen. The first batter that he faced hit a bullet down the first base line. Alex “Axe” Kelk of the Axemen somehow managed to get his glove on a piece of the ball, with his body blocking the rest. It was a truly great baseball play in a clutch situation. With two out and a runner on first base, it seemed that the game was over when the runner was caught stealing at second base. But the home plate umpire overturned the decision and the game continued. But it only took “Bones” Bonnar three pitches, all strikes, to close out the game. It was a strikeout and the game was over with the Stittsville Axemen as the 2015 Willie Putnam Memorial Tournament. This Willie Putnam Memorial Tournament is in memory of a 12 year old youth who lost his life in a bike accident at the age of 12 in 1982. Willie was an avid baseball and hockey player. It was originally meant to be a one-time event held in 1983 but due to the positive response to the tournament, a second tournament was held in 1984 and the tournament has continued ever since, growing over the years.

90th birthday celebration for Clive Morris john.curry@metroland.com

ing balloons and a frosting greeting “Happy 90th Birthday, Clive!� It happened at the Stittsville Legion Hall, a place that he knows so well as he is a charter member of the Stittsville Legion branch, a former branch president and long time MC for the branch’s annual Remembrance dinner, a highlight of which over the years was the poem which Clive wrote and recited at each dinner.

Barb Eamer

And Clive had quite a life even before moving to Stittsville in 1959, growing up in England and enlisting in the Royal Air Force in London as a navigator during World War Two. During his initial training in England, he was posted to a number of stations throughout the country, including several postings in and around London at the height of the V1 (buzz bombs) and V2 (rocket) attacks. Clive eventually was posted to

Veterans Reunion Association) when it was going strong in the 1970’s and 1980’s. This was an organization that brought veterans from both Canada and the United States together in a spirit of comradeship and friendship. CAVRA used to hold an annual summertime reunion event at a member branch in either Ontario or upper New York State. The Stittsville Legion played a prominent role in the organization and did host the reunion event. Clive has also been active in the 55 Plus Club of the Stittsville Legion. Clive enjoyed a long career in the federal public service before his retirement.

Washer tournament raises $2,200 Special to the News

A total of $2,200 was raised at the sixth annual Dave Markell Washer Tournament at Fringewood on Saturday, July 18. These funds are going to the new Dave Markell Memorial Fund which will be used to help families who are battling cancer to meet expenses that perhaps are challenging to handle in the circumstances such as paying for parking at the hospital or transportation costs or even paying for groceries. This is the first time that funds raised by this annual washer tournament have been directed

ACTIVITY SENSORS

to this new fund established in memory of Dave Markell, an active member of the Fringewood community who passed away from cancer in 2012. In the previous three years, over $4,500 was raised by the washer tournament with the funds being directed to different charities such as cancer, heart disease and Alzheimer’s research. Now all of the funds raised are going to the Dave Markell Memorial Fund.

Annual Dave Markell Washer Tournament Continued from page 15

As Ryan Campbell, one of the organizers, said as he was announcing the creation of this new Dave Markell Memorial Fund to the assembled participants just before play got underway in this year’s major afternoon washer tournament, the funds will go to help families battling cancer with “the little random things people don’t expect.” This will be done through the provision of gift cards for such things as groceries and gas. It is all being done so that families involved in a battle against cancer have a little easier time of it as they focus on beating the cancer. This annual washer tournament does not just happen. It involves a lot of work by many: those who cut the grass prior to the event; those who set up the washer boxes and tents; those who help provide the dinner; Claude Goyette who makes the washer boxes; Francine Boucher who keeps the tournament running smoothly; and others who contribute in numerous ways. Campbell Ford provided two open air tents for this year’s tournament and Access Rigging made a generous donation. It was Jessica Campbell and her husband Ryan who started this washer tournament in 2010, six years ago, inviting close family and friends. They all gathered in the Campbell’s back yard to play some friendly washer games. A nominal fee was charged to provide food for the day and cover the entry fee for the tournament. In the first and second years of the tournament, the funds raised went to the winner of

the tournament. Dave Markell had attended and thoroughly enjoyed these first two tournaments and helped with their planning and execution. Dave passed away from cancer just before the third annual tournament in 2012 and that’s when it was decided to make the washer tournament an annual memorial event in memory of Dave. That’s when it was decided to donate half of the entry fees to charity. The washer tournament has grown steadily each year, now attracting 60 players (30 teams) with three tournaments being held throughout the day. The location has moved from the Campbell’s backyard to the parkland behind the home where there is much more room. The game of washers is very similar to horseshoes although instead of throwing horseshoes at a stake in a pit, a person throws metal washers at a washer box. In the game, there are two washer boxes placed 25 feet apart. Playing in teams of two, players throw a metal washer standing at one box towards the other washer box, trying to get the washer in the box or, better yet, in a tube standing up in the box. Points are accumulated, with a washer in the box counting as one point and a washer in the tube counting for three points. Games are played to either 11 points or to 21 points. In a tournament like this Dave Markell Washer Tournament, a double elimination format is followed, with the undefeated team emerging as the winner. The winning team gets half of the registration fees which can either be kept or can be donated back for the tournament’s charity purpose. See 30 TEAMS, page 19

Combine Bruce Wozny’s songwriting creations with his guitar accompaniment. Add in his harmonica accompaniment on some songs. And then add in Bruce Eveleigh’s saxophone sounds on other songs. And what do you have? – simply an evening full of musical enjoyment. And what a variety of songs was heard from this musical scenario at the music evening at the Gaia Java Coffee Company shop in Stittsville last Friday! Songwriter Bruce Wozny seems to find inspiration for his songs from many of his life experiences. There was a song about Elvis Presley buying a monkey, based on a story that Bruce saw on the internet; there was a song about the virtue of gratitude and later one about the virtue of moderation; there was a song about what Bruce called “non verbal communication” which he titled “Red Pyjama Blues”; there was a song about a rocky beginning to mid-life (he turned 55 years old) that he called “The End of the Road”; there was a ballad-like love song about parting called “Almost Like Dreaming”; and a song about bad luck with the lyric “Life ain’t fair but it can be beautiful”; and also a protest song about growing old, admittedly something about which nothing can be done; a song about middle aged love; a song inspired by his dog Willy who comes from Tennessee and is not used to Canadian winters; a song about a visit back to his hometown, creating a conflict between his memories and what he was seeing; and more. Bruce even performed a song that he wrote in what he described as the style of the great Jimmie Rodgers, the early 20th century country music singer whom he admitted was one of his heroes. The song was about, of all things, a pickle farmer.

Jimmie Rodgers, of course, who suffered from tuberculosis and died in 1933, was known as “The Singing Brakeman” for his train songs. He was also known for his yodelling. Indeed, Jimmie Rodgers was one of the first three inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame when it was established in 1961. On several songs, Bruce accompanied himself not only with his guitar but also with a “hands free” harmonica which was on an attachment around his neck, allowing him to play it with his mouth without having to hold it with his hands. This left his hands free to play the guitar. There’s something about the harmonica sound that adds lustre to a musical performance. Perhaps it is just that it is not heard very often and so, when it is, it attracts attention. On a number of songs, Bruce was accompanied by Bruce Eveleigh on the saxophone, with at times the saxophone dominating the sound. This was the first time that Bruce Wozny and Bruce Eveleigh had played together in a coffee shop setting, performing Bruce Wozny’s original songs. They do, however, play together in a Celtic music group. The Gaia Java Coffee Company at the Stittsville Shopping Centre (Shoppers Drug Mart plaza) on Stittsville Main Street in Stittsville holds a music evening every Friday starting at 7 p.m. There is no admission charge although there is a freewill donation jar available with the funds collected going to help the performers with their expenses. At the music evening at the Gaia Java coffee shop this Friday, July 31, the entertainment will be provided by performers raising money for the SCHOOLBOX Stittsville Build group that hopes to help build a school in Nicaragua next year. SCHOOLBOX supports education and builds schools in Nicaragua.

Heritage Advocacy Award presented

#""!

Chair Hobbs said that in his writings, Mr. Curry has played an essential role in increasing the interest in and understanding of heritage issues concerning the community. Mr. Curry is a former chair of the Goulbourn Local Architectural Conservation Advisory Committee (L.A.C.A.C.) and after amalgamation of the city of Ottawa in 2001 served for a number of years on the city’s L.A.C.A.C. He was chair of the Goulbourn L.A.C.A.C. when the book “The Heritage of Goulbourn: A Driving Tour� was published in 1990. He also served on the Book Committee of the Goulbourn Township Historical Society when the book “Goulbourn Memories� was published in 1996. He is also a founding member and chair of the former Goulbourn Sports Wall of Fame Committee and as a trustee on the Ottawa Catholic School Board, he chaired the Board’s Historical Committee in 2006 when the book “A Faith-Filled Mission: 150 Years of Catholic Education in Ottawa-Carleton 1856-2006� was published. Besides presenting Mr. Curry with the Heritage Advocacy Award, Chair Hobbs also presented him with a commemorative silver pocket watch which was engraved with his initials “JGC� on the front and with the inscription “Your time has been the greatest gift – Goulbourn Museum� on the back. In accepting the award, Mr. Curry noted how fortunate that the Goulbourn community is to have the Goulbourn Museum which tries to tell the story of Goulbourn and its heritage. He praised the efforts of the Museum’s staff as well as the contributions made by the Museum’s volunteers and supporters. He also credited the city of Ottawa for its support of community museums, noting that the city has not only recognized the importance of infrastructure such as roads and sewers but Sue Woodford photo has also recognized the importance of Keith Hobbs, right, chair of the Goulbourn Museum’s a “cultural infrastructure� through its Board of Directors, presents John Curry, left, with the support of these community museums Museum’s Heritage Advocacy Award which is awarded like the Goulbourn Museum. Special to the News

Each year the Goulbourn Museum presents its Heritage Advocacy Award, recognizing a person or persons who have made an outstanding contribution to the Museum. This year the award was presented to John Curry. The award was presented at the Museum’s annual “Evening of Appreciation� held at the Museum on Thursday, July 23. In making the presentation, Goulbourn Museum Board of Directors chair Keith Hobbs noted Mr. Curry’s long involvement with the Goulbourn Museum right from its early years following its founding in 1990. From 1991 to 2000, he served as treasurer of the Goulbourn Township Historical Society which looked after the Museum for its first 20 years. He then went on to serve on the Historical Society’s Museum Committee before joining the Board of Directors of the newly independent Goulbourn Museum in 2010 on which he remains a Director. Besides his direct involvement with the Goulbourn Museum, Mr. Curry has also publicized its programs and services over the years as editor of the Stittsville News. Last year, for instance, there were over 200 mentions of the Goulbourn Museum in the pages of the Stittsville News. Mr. Curry has also written numerous articles relating the history and heritage of Goulbourn. In 1993, he wrote the book “Richmond on the Jock� outlining the history of Richmond.

He said that he was particularly honoured to receive the Heritage Advocacy Award because he is following in the footsteps of a line of outstanding heritage advocates who had received the award in previous years. These previous award recipients have been Pat Roberts, 2010; Linda Preston and Cheryl McCoy, 2011; Sheila Cain-Sample, Hilda Moore and Virginia Notley, 2012; and Brenda Holitz, 2013. In his remarks at the Evening of Appreciation, Museum Board chair Hobbs also thanked all those in attendance for their contributions to the Museum over the past year and years. “Your contributions come in many forms – your personal time, skills, historical information, artefacts and overall love of Goulbourn’s heritage,” he said. “Going forward you are our heritage.” He also thanked the Museum’s staff for their talents and dedication in making the Museum relevant to the growing community that is now Goulbourn. Sunny, warm weather prevailed for the Evening of Appreciation with over 80 people attending and enjoying a barbecue that saw the burgers barbecued by Museum Board directors Bram Blenk and Frank Argue. The burgers, buns, condiments and toppings for the barbecue were donated by the Cheddar Stop in Carleton Place. Large fruit and cheese trays were also provided by the Cheddar Stop as well as a tray of gluten-free brownies. A number of tables and associated seating were set up on the grounds of the Museum at Stanley’s Corners so that those attending could enjoy their BBQ meal in an outdoor setting.

Offering nearly 50 programs and workshops. Welcoming nearly 2,500 visitors through its doors. Receiving over 500 artefact donations. And benefitting from over 1,700 hours contributed by volunteer supporters. That was the past year for the Goulbourn Museum. All of these highlights and more were summarized by the Museum’s curator manager Kathryn Jamieson in her remarks at the Museum’s “Evening of Appreciation” on Thursday, July 23, held to recognize the contributions of volunteers and supporters to the Goulbourn Museum over the past year. Noting that this year marks the Museum’s 25th anniversary since first opening in 1990, she said that the Museum has grown from being directed by a passionate team of volunteers to a staff of three full time employees as well as one part-time contractor and two summer contract personnel. She also noted that the Museum is supported as well by over 60 dedicated volunteers as well as 60 members, in addition to countless other supporters and contributors who have donated funding, artefacts, supplies or time. Jamieson said that in the past year, the Museum offered nearly 50 programs and workshops and also welcomed nearly 2,500 people through its doors. She noted that volunteers work on many varied projects at the Museum including assisting at programs and events including family craft days, outreach activities and

special events; working with the artefact collection by cataloguing each item; working on exhibitions and publications including research, writing, editing and installation; demonstrating fibre arts at various events as well as knitting and assembling a yarn-bombing on-site; sitting on the Board of Directors and various committees; and doing yard work and outdoor maintenance. All in all, volunteers contributed over 1,700 hours to the Museum over the past year. In the past year as well, over 500 artefacts were donated to the Goulbourn Museum. These included an 1820s sword which once belong to Col. George Thew Burke, the superintendent of the Richmond military settlement and a combatant in the War of 1812; a new collection of correspondence between World War One Private Sefton Stewart and his family back home in Richmond; additional artefacts related to Richmond’s Clarence Evelyn Rielly who served in both World War One and World War Two; Red Cross knitting instructions for war work; and an Ottawa Citizen newspaper announcing the end of World War Two. Jamieson announced that next year the Goulbourn Museum will be launching an exhibition highlighting the role that women played in the World Wars as well as the contribution of veterinarians in the war effort. As part of this exhibition, the Museum would like to purchase a reproduction nursing sister uniform both for display purposes and for staff and volunteers to wear when portraying such a character. Reproduction uniforms such as this can be costly, so the Museum is looking for anyone who would be willing to contribute to help out with such a purchase by the Museum. In her remarks, Jamieson also acknowledged the financial support which the Goulbourn Museum receives from the city of Ottawa, from the Ontario Ministry of Tourism, Culture and Sport, from Service Canada and from the Department of Canadian Heritage.

The City’s Parks staff have also developed a sign that will be placed in areas they have identified with wild parsnip growth. While this is not practical on roadsides given the amount of wild parsnip, staff may also be looking at signage along City maintained pathways and trails for future use. This would be put into place next year during the growth season. In addition, City staff is working with Ottawa Public Health to develop information that will be given out to residents at community fairs and events to help them identify Wild Parsnip. Going forward I will be working with Ottawa Public Health to have an educational session presented in the schools to students in the spring in preparation for the next growth period.

Bren Hunter off to world championships Special to the News

Stittsville’s Bren Hunter will be off this fall on the hunt for more gold … gold medals, that is. For the seventh consecutive year, Bren will be heading to world karate championships as part of the Team Canada contingent. And he’s going to be busy, because he will just barely get back from the World Karate Union’s (WKU) World Championships Boys Teen Division in Albir, Spain which runs from Oct. 28 to Nov. 3 when he will be off to the World Karate Commission’s (WKC) World Championships in Orlando, Florida which start on Nov. 8 and run through to Nov. 13. He will be representing Canada at both competitions. Now 16 years old, Bren has been part of Team Canada competing at karate world championship events since he was ten years old when he competed in Spain. Since then, he has represented Canada at world championships in Scotland, Germany, Florida, Greece and England. Now, this year, it’s back to Spain and then Florida. At the recent WKC Canadian national championships in Ottawa in May, Bren captured gold in both Musical Weapons and Creative Weapons in the boys age 16-17 division. This event was followed by the WKU Canadian championships at the Bell Sports Complex in Brossard, QC in June where Bren collected gold medals in Hardstyle Forms, Traditional Forms, Traditional Weapons and Creative Weapons. He also won a silver medal in Musical Weapons and a bronze medal in Point Fighting (under 70 kg). Bren also teamed up for the first time in a trio with two of his past doubles partners, Kanata’s Emma Cross (Canadian Sport Martial Arts Academy) and Cantley’s Max Kelland (YKO Club), in a Free Style Synchronized Team event in which they won the silver medal even though they had only one month to practice together since joining forces. Bren will compete in seven disciplines as he represents Team Canada at the 2015 WKU world championships in

Albir, Spain this fall. He will follow this up by competing in two disciplines at the WKC world championships in Orlando, Florida. This will be Bren’s second year competing in the boys age 15-17 category at the WKU world championships. Although Bren has earned the right to represent Canada at the WKC world championships in previous years, this will be the first year that he has accepted the honour to compete at the WKC world championships. In the six karate world champion-

Transportation more than just a ride with ‘Driving Miss Daisy’ John Curry

john.curry@metroland.com

in a business where human contact makes a difference. Kevin had been working in biochemistry research which he enjoyed but he was stuck in a lab all the time with not much contact with others. It was not a fulfilling lifestyle to him. However, in volunteering at the Queensway Carleton Hospital, he found that he enjoyed keeping company with patients there. He also discovered that many of these patients were not happy with their transportation options of taking a taxi or paraTranspo. He then discovered Driving Miss Daisy Serniors Services which has over 55 franchises operating across Canada. Wanting to be involved in a small business where he would have direct contact with customers and feeling unfilled in his biochemistry career, he got the franchise for the Ottawa West area, officially launching the business on May 1.

He sees a great need for his new business which provides accompaniment and companionship as well as transportation for seniors and those with special needs. As an example, he points to a person who is unable to drive home from a hospital after cataract surgery which has compromised the person’s vision. A taxi driver will not go into the hospital to escort the person out or bring the person inside the home when arriving at the destination. Kevin says that his Driving Miss Daisy Seniors Services will arrive promptly at an exact pickup time, will meet the patient inside the hospital and will guide the person to the vehicle and once at the destination, will escort the person safely inside. And Kevin points out that his Driving Miss Daisy Seniors Services business is fully licensed and insured to carry paying passengers. It is also a Veterans Affairs service provider.

His drivers will all have police security clearance, clean driving records and are trained in CPR and First Aid. Right now, Kevin himself is the only driver as he has started the business small. As it grows, he will add other drivers. His rates are competitive with those of a taxi but customers receive the additional service of being accompanied into the hospital or other destination and then, on the return trip, being escorted into the home. The service is not restricted to medical situations. “It’s really anything people want,” Kevin says, noting that the transportation could be to go shopping or to run errands such as going to the bank. Kevin is focussing his efforts right now on serving the Stittsville, Kanata, Richmond and Bells Corners areas. See DRIVING, page 29

R0013390759_0730

“Driving Miss Daisy” won the Academy Award for Best Picture in 1990. Starring Morgan Freeman and Jessica Tandy, the movie is about a chauffeur and his employer who become friends from their time together. And so the film’s title “Driving Miss Daisy” is a most appropriate name for a business that provides transportation like a chauffeur does but which also makes the transportation much more than just a ride, adding elements of accompaniment and companionship that takes the service to a higher level than just being a transportation service. “We are not a simple driving service,” says Kevin Duesling, owner of the new Driving Miss Daisy Seniors Services franchise for the Ottawa West area. Kevin is particularly

excited that his new business serves Stittsville as he grew up in the community and attended Sacred Heart High School. “Unlike a taxi, we provide a complete ‘through the door’ service,” Kevin explains. “We’ll help clients gather their things, get their jackets on, get to the vehicle, help put on their seat belts and so on. Once at the destination, we’ll take them inside and even stay with them if they wish.” Kevin says that he tailors the services offered to meet the needs of his customers. And he does not limit his services to seniors, noting that he serves people with special needs of all ages. This could be, for example, a young woman who has broken her leg and requires transportation assistance for a period of time. And Kevin comes to this formula of personalized service from his own personal experience and desire to be

Driving Meditation Continued from page 28

Kevin himself enjoys interacting with his customer, calling it the “fun part of the job.” He notes that everyone has interesting stories and experiences and he likes hearing them as he drives his customers. Kevin enjoys being part of a country-wide franchise business not only because it provides an avenue of accountability since customers can call the corporate office if there is a complaint. But even more important, at least to Kevin, is the help that he receives from the corporate office. For example, he received help in obtaining his license from the city.

A weekly guide in legal matters I am purchasing a new home. I heard from my real estate agent that I would have to get title insurance. Is this necessary? Title insurance has been around for the last 15 years and is used in almost all residential real estate purchases, especially those involving mortgages. What is title insurance and how much does it cost?

Title insurance covers a variety of issues associated with purchasing a home, such as conflicting ownership claims, spousal claims, title defects, encroachments and subsequent removal of structures, unpaid property taxes and utilities, by-law infringements, such as renovations without a building permit, and many other issues. Some title insurance companies also cover errors made by a real estate lawyer representing a purchaser.

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

Title insurance is an insurance policy covering a variety of risks involving the purchase and ownership of real estate. The policy coverage lasts for the entire period of ownership and is, in general, a cheaper option than having a real estate lawyer perform full title and off-title searches so as to provide a legal opinion on title. Mortgage providers insist on either a lawyer providing them with an opinion on title (and the searches that go with it) or to have the transaction title insured. An average one-time premium for title insurance ranges from $300 to $400 for a policy insuring a new owner and the mortgage provider. R0013395043

respective platform. After this, those at the meeting, using a microphone, will be able to direct a question to one or more of the candidates. An RVA director will monitor this question and answer session, tracking time, directing the conversation and making any ad hoc decisions that may need to be made as the session progresses. Everyone is welcome to attend this candidates meeting hosted by the RVA.

Upon immigrating to Canada in 2001 he spent six years working with people with developmental disabilities. He obtained his law degree from the University of Ottawa’s Common Law program in 2011 and subsequently articled in Burlington, Ontario.

The most common exclusions (i.e. not covered) by title insurance are environmental issues and soil contamination, title issues known to the purchaser or their lawyer prior to closing and aboriginal claims. Title insurance only covers issues that crystalized prior to closing but were discovered following the closing. For example, renovations made to your home without a work permit after you have moved in would be excluded. Home buyers in Ontario purchase their new homes without any obligation on the seller to disclose issues with the property. Title insurance is a very efficient way to protect your investment and deal with any surprises that may come up after your purchase.

325 at ‘Luncheon with a Victorian Flair’ John Curry

john.curry@metroland.com

Queen Victoria would have felt right at home at last Sunday’s “Luncheon with a Victorian Flair” fundraiser. The long time monarch who presided over the Victorian era would have been surrounded by her era’s hats, fascinators and flowing dresses, all in evidence at this fundraiser for the Canadian Spinal Research Organization (CSRO) at the Alfred Taylor Community Centre in North Gower. She would have seen the multi-generational Newman group with their white dresses and even a couple of parasols as well as the three generations led by Beryl Parks, with grandmother Beryl, daughter Laurie Lee Czempiel and granddaughter Jessica Nistico all resplendent in their Victorian dress. Or the queen’s eye might have been attracted to the large, wide brimmed hats sported by Sandra Long and Barbara Long, both brand new for the occasion. These were just a few of the many who graced the event with their Victorian era hats and dresses. Altogether, there were 325 ladies in attendance, filling the hall as they enjoyed a luncheon of sandwiches, goodies and even wine, served by male servers which included Carleton-Mississippi Mills MPP Jack MacLaren. But this was more than just a Victorian-themed luncheon. In keeping with its role as a fundraiser for the CSRO, it also featured a large and varied silent auction, an event which perhaps Queen Victoria would not have been familiar but which certainly a familiar feature at any fundraiser today. And what a silent auction it was, with 165 items up for bid. These included an iron-rimmed clock, another clock on a wagon pulled by four horses, artwork, a John Deere

bicycle, Barbie dolls, a Care Bears snow globe, handcrafted quilts, a homemade butterscotch pie by Margaret Hobbs of Ashton, a handmade braided rug, a photograph of the Ottawa Senators Erik Karlsson, a slow cooker, a cookbook, a Phil Kessel Toronto Maple Leafs jersey, a sapphire ring, watches, gift baskets, a golf umbrella, a tea pot and more.

And if being surrounded by all of these silent auction items were not enough, there were also numerous gift baskets on hand, given away as raffle prizes. This was the twelfth and final “Luncheon with a Victorian Flair” organized and hosted by Richard and Jean Fraser of Goulbourn and their friend Maxine Gaddye of Dundas, ON. It was an event which began as a

one-day event held at the Fraser home on Fallowfield Road which grew into a multiday event at the home and then eventually was moved to the Alfred Taylor Community Centre in North Gower where even more could gather for a gala luncheon, all on the one day. See LUNCHEON, page 34

‘Luncheon with a Victorian Flair’

to over $200,000. A special guest at this year’s “Luncheon with a VictoUp until this year, the event had raised over $180,000 rian Flair” was Barry Munro of Richmond Hill, ON who for the CSRO and this year’s event, with its turnout and si- is chair of the Board of Directors for CSRO and who suslent auction will boost the fundraising total from the event tained a spinal cord injury himself in a diving accident in 1987, leaving him a quadriplegic. Since then, he has become an advocate for the need for more public awareness and also increased research. In his remarks at the “Luncheon with a Victorian Flair,” Mr. Munro noted how far society has come with regard to spinal cord injuries in the 28 years since he was injured. He said that the challenges were to convince people that a cure could be found through research and then to find supporters who would help in finding such a cure. He credited the advocacy of the late Christopher Reeve and his lobbying on behalf of people with spinal cord injuries and the need for research after his equestrian accident in 1995 that left him a quadriplegic for changing the public’s view about finding a cure for spinal cord injuries from an attitude of “if” to one of “when.” Reeve, of course, is known for his acting, particularly his film portrayal of the superhero Superman. Mr. Munro credited the support of family and friends of those with spinal cord injuries, saying that the only way that a cure for spinal paralysis will be found is for supporters to make it happen. The Canadian Spinal Research Organization (CSRO) is dedicated to the improvement of the physical quality of life for persons with a spinal cord injuries, to increase public awareness about spinal cord injuries and to implement prevention programs.

The inaugural edition of the Capital Karting Grand Prix at Karters Korneris now history and already the dates have been set for next year’s second annual event – Saturday, July 23 and Sunday, July 24, 2016. “The inaugural edition of the Capital Karting Grand Prix featuring the Mayor’s Cup of Wishes was a great success!” proclaimed the Capital Karting Grand Prix website at www.capitalkarting.com following last weekend’s event. Last Saturday saw the kart racers all have an opportunity for practice runs on the Karters Korner track before it go down to the serious racing last Sunday which was a sunny, warm day. The practice runs lasted all morning and afternoon, with racers following a rotating schedule based on their classes, with each class having a ten minute session on the track before giving way to the next class. The drivers taking part in the Mayor’s Cup of Wishes, the charity component of the event, go to practice on the track at 5 p.m., finishing up just before the skies opened up with a downpour. Trophies were presented for the racers finishing in the first, second and third places of the Sunday races. In addition, there was prize money and/or special prizes for the winners in the various classes. In the Briggs Senior class, the first place money was $400. In the Briggs Junior class, first place earned $300.

In the Novice class, first place received $150 worth of EB Games gift certificates. In the Masters class, the first place winner received a set of Vega Blue tires valued at $290. There were no special prizes or cash money in the 4 Stroke GT class, just trophies for the top three winners. For Sunday’s race day, the parking lot at Karters Korner was filled and vehicles were parked along the south side of Fallowfield Road along the whole frontage of the Karters Korner site. There were also a number of food trucks on site and a portable grandstand had been set up so fans could watch the action on the track. The Mayor’s Cup of Races, which saw corporate teams compete in an Enduro race to benefit selected charities, happened on Sunday. The benefitting charities included Children’s Wish, Ottawa Senators Foundation, Roger’s House, Soldier On, Cystic Fibrosis Canada and The Hera Mission of Canada. Admission at this Capital Karting Grand Prix Motorsport Festival was free. Besides the nonstop racing, there was food, a family fun zone, and an Exotics and formula Race Car Show. The Karters Korner kart track at the corner of Fallowfield Road and Huntley Road south of Stittsville is the longest kart track in Eastern Ontario, stretching to 883 metres in length. Besides kart racing, Karters Korner features a driving range, a mini golf course and a variety of video and other games inside.

Stittsville 56ers lose, then win against West Carleton Electric Special to the News

The Stittsville 56ers lost 6-1 to West Carleton Electric in Greater Ottawa Fastball League play at Alexander Grove in Stittsville on Wednesday, July 22. It was a make-up game from a previous rainout. The West Carleton Electric squad built up an early lead, scoring two runs in each of the first three innings, and never trailed in the game. The only run for the hometown 56ers was scored in the fifth inning when Mike Barrett slammed a solo home run. Kyle Olsen pitched the whole seven inning game for the 56ers, taking the loss. He had six strikeouts during the game and did not walk a batter. Kyle had a good night at the plate for the 56ers, collecting two hits in three at bats. The 56ers only managed four hits off West Carleton Electric pitcher Andy Barber who

went the distance on the mount for the win. Besides Kyle Olsen’s two hits and Mike Barrett’s home run, the only other Stittsville hit was one by Darren Ladouceur. The 56ers were back on a diamond on Thursday, July 23, this time in Carp where the 56ers took on the Ottawa Valley A’s. The 56ers lost 4-1 but the game was closer than the score indicates, with the big blow being a three run home run for the Ottawa Valley A’s. Last Monday, the Stittsville 56ers turned the tables on West Carleton Electric in a Greater Ottawa Fastball League game at Fitzroy Harbour, winning by a 10-5 score. Scott Jessiman slammed two homes runs in this game for the 56ers while Dan Jessiman had one home run. The 56ers play another regular season game this week with the Greater Ottawa Fastball League playoffs beginning in August.

100th anniversary for 4H Special to the News

This year marks 100th years of 4H in Ontario. Such a milestone called for a celebration and that is just what the Carleton 4H had as it hosted a celebration of 4H Ontario’s 100th anniversary in the form of a fun day for all 4H members, volunteers and alumni on Sunday afternoon, July 19 at the Richmond fairgrounds in Richmond. In this fun day evening, teams competed in some fun 4H style Farmers Olympics games. In addition, there was a BBQ held, with only a nominal charge for the food. 4H in Canada began in 1913 in Roland, Manitoba but in Ontario, the first 4H Club happened in Waterloo in 1915. It was actually started as a “Boys and Girls Club” under the guidance of the Ministry of Agriculture. 4H was founded on the concept of teaching youth agricultural skills in a club atmosphere. Members were guided through a project by a leader.

4H is also based on the concept of “Learn To Do By Doing.” This means that a 4H member is expected to learn skills by actually doing the activities related to those skills. The 4H pledge encourages a balanced lifestyle (intellectual, emotional, physical and spiritual) and reminds participants to always aim to be a good friend, mentor, community member and citizen. The pledge encompasses the ideas and main goal of the 4H program which is developing well rounded, responsible and independent youth. The 4H pledge reads as follows: “I pledge by Head to clearer thinking/My Heart to greater loyalty/My Hands to larger service/And my Health to better living/for my club, my community and my country.” There are celebrations being planned on a provincial level to mark the 100th anniversary of 4H in Ontario. In addition, there are local celebrations being held, such as this one by the Carleton 4H organization being held at the Richmond fairgrounds on Sunday, July 19.

Partnership Special to the News

John Brummell/Metroland

Tim Sheahan tees off in the Bell Warrior Football Club’s annual golf tournament at the Richmond Centennial Golf Club in Richmond last Saturday.

The Bell Warriors Football Club has entered into a new partnership agreement with Stittsville resident Michael Polito of Mortgage Brokers Ottawa. Michael Polito’s “Lend A Hand Program” will make a cash donation to the Bell Warriors Football Club every time a new potential mortgage client identifies himself or herself as a member of the Bell Warriors family. This is in addition to coming on board as a Bell Warriors gold sponsor. “It has been my privilege to be a volunteer for the Bell Warriors for many years and this new sponsorship partnership is the right thing to do,” Mr. Polito says. “I’m coming on board as a gold sponsor immediately but the sky is the limit in terms of donating above and beyond.” “Mike Polito’s innovative approach to give back to our football program is based on a model that many other service providers could consider adopting,” says Paul Stewart, president of the Bell Warriors Football Club. He calls the new approach “sustainable, generous, thoughtful.” The Bell Warriors Football Club provides football programs for boys and girls ages 8 to 19 in the communities of Stittsville, Richmond, Munster, Bells Corners, Bayshore and Britannia.

MARY COOK Audrey had Mary Cook’s Memories For reasons unknown to me at the time, my older sister Audrey, when she had special prayers she felt needed to be sent to God, insisted I kneel with her on the braided rug beside our bed. These were prayers over and above those we had already said at our Mother’s knee at bedtime. I dared to ask Audrey one time why her special prayers couldn’t be included then, and her short retort made it perfectly clear why.   “Certainly not. That’s all I need is for Emerson to hear what my special prayers were and all of Renfrew County would know about them before the sun set the next day.” And so, when the need arose, I was asked to join Audrey on the braided rug, and when I asked her why she couldn’t pray on her own, she said she learned at Sunday School that there was “safety in numbers.” I had no idea what she meant. But Audrey, who did many special favours for me, had a willing partner on the braided rug when she needed it. Questioning the why’s and the wherefore’s was not to concern me. And so, I found myself praying with Audrey for things, which had nothing to do with me whatsoever. This could be anything from being

specific ritual for special prayers

allowed to wear high heels, to finding money for a store-bought bra, to being asked to go to the strawberry social at the United Church. I thought that last prayer was pushing her luck, since we were Lutherans, but there we were one night, both on our knees by the bed, and Audrey in barely a whisper, asking God to find someone to ask her to the Strawberry Social at the United Church. Well, any doubts I may have been harbouring were soon cast aside when a young man from the Barr Side Road asked her to the social. I couldn’t believe it! And Audrey leaned over to me after hanging up the phone and said, “See ... safety in numbers.” Long before Audrey got out of public school, we prayed that when the time came, she would graduate from the Entrance Class. Well, I thought that was a needless prayer, since she was just about the smartest one at the Northcote School! But she wanted to be sure, as those farm girls who didn’t make it out of the Entrance Class, ended up doing housework for the rich people in Renfrew. Audrey couldn’t think of a worse fate. More than once I was caught with my mind somewhere else too. Audrey had always instructed me to keep close attention to what she

was saying, and I was to repeat the prayer silently to myself. I can no longer remember what the prayer was about, but my mind certainly was not on what Audrey was praying for that night. My sister poked me in the ribs, which was my cue to say, “Please God, hear our prayer.” As soon as Audrey’s elbow connected with me, I tried in vain to remember what we had been praying for, and for the life of me, couldn’t bring up one word Audrey had said. She had to repeat the prayer, which didn’t please her one bit. Audrey’s prayers could be long, depending on what she had on her “want list.”That’s when I lost track of what she was praying for. I could see no reason why she had to go into such detail with her prayers, convinced as I was that, as long as you let God know it was you, He would take care of the rest. All you had to do, I thought then, was to think of the prayer and that was as good as saying it. However, I was never able to get Audrey into that way of thinking about prayer. She said too, it would be much better if after the prayers were over, we both said “Amen” at the exact same time. I thought this was just another way of my sister making sure I was paying attention to what she was praying for. And then one night, the end of our praying together just about came to an end. That was the night Audrey was praying at great length, about what, I no longer remember. She had come to a pause, and it was long enough for me to think we were all finished, and so I let out a loud “Amen.” Well, didn’t that open a can of worms. Audrey said she was just pausing, she wasn’t finished, and I had jumped the gun with the Amen, and so we had to say the prayer all over again. My sister eventually came to the conclusion that unless I was listening, paying attention, repeating the prayers where necessary, she was better off if she prayed alone. That was a good decision, I thought.

Special to the News

Chi-Gong exercises are being offered in Stittsville this summer. Chi-Gong exercises are good for dealing with stress and emotional stress. These Chi-Gong exercises are being offered at the new Rotary Peace Park at Bell Park on Stittsville Main Street in Stittsville (entrance off Cherry Drive). These Chi-Gong exercises are being led by Bhante Kovida, an author and meditation and spirituality teacher who is currently visiting the Cambodian Buddhist Temple in Stittsville. He has travelled extensively in Southeast Asia, teaching meditation. He has authored two books, “An Inquiring Mind” written in 2003 and “The World Is Myself” written in 2008. The Chi-Gong exercises are being offered during July and August at the new Rotary Peace Park at Bell Park on Sundays from 8 a.m. to 9:30 a.m. These exercises and meditation classes started on Sunday, July 19.
