News - Sunday, Aug. 25 is going to be a time of fun, food and fellowship in Stittsville. That’s because the Stittsville Legion, in partnership with the Military Family Resource Centre of the National Capital Region (MFRC-NCR), is holding a community BBQ at the Stittsville Legion, running from 3 p.m. to 8 p.m. For youngsters, there is going to be a medieval bouncy castle and slide set up for lots of fun. Organizers are also trying to arrange for a fire truck to be present, something which is always an attraction for youngsters. As for food, if the weather is good, you can expect to see the Legion parking lot filled not with vehicles as might be expected but with food vendors. The Works Gourmet Burger Bistro is going to be present, with Bistro staff on hand to cook their burgers, just like you would get at the Bistro itself. There will be other outlets set up for such food attractions as hot dogs and bratwurst. And it looks like a two-star general and other senior military officers will be the ones dispensing this food. Yes, sir! CTV Ottawa legend Max Keeping will be the guest of honour at the event, so it’s a good time to catch up with him and thank him for all the years that he brought the news into your living room. City of Ottawa mayor Jim Watson is to be there, as well as city councillors Shad Qadri of Stittsville ward and Eli El-Chantiry of the West CarletonMarch ward.

Chamber music at Gaia Java
john.curry@metroland.com
News - It was like Stittsville’s own chamber music festival. The four members of “The Crumble Quartet” used their stringed instruments to fill the Gaia Java Coffee Company shop in Stittsville last Friday evening with harmonic musical offerings like those heard in Ottawa’s annual Chamberfest. Yes, first class chamber music thrilled those at this final free Friday music evening at Gaia Java before a month-long break in August. And event Gaia Java co-owner Paul Jay was impressed with the group. “It’s like we have the Chamber Music Festival here in Stittsville,” he proclaimed to the capacity audience as he introduced the group for its second set. He also noted, in addition, that this four-member group, known as “The Crumble Quartet” because they get together on a regular basis to share plates of fruit crumble, does indeed have a signature dessert at Gaia Java – “apple crumble.” The quartet, comprised of Catherine Campbell on cello, Mary Young on viola and Margot Lange and Julia Sandquist on violin, played a selection of baroque and classical music pieces in their opening set and then followed that up after a brief intermission with a second set with what was termed fiddle music, ending with a Scott Joplin ragtime composition “Country Club,” written by the famous African-American composer and pianist in 1909, just eight years before his dearth in 1917. It was Scott Joplin who popularized ragtime music which blends African-American musical styles with European musical forms and melodies. His 1899 composition “Maple Leaf Rag” not only brought him fame but also established ragtime in popularity. Scott Joplin’s “The Entertainer,” which he composed in 1902, was the signature tune in the 1973 movie “The Sting.”
After Scott Joplin’s “Country Club,” the quartet played a final piece as an encore after the audience applauded its approval for such a move when asked by Paul Jay. “The Crumble Quartet” play together on their own, like at this performance at the Gaia Java coffee shop in Stittsville, but also are part of a larger Ottawa-based string ensemble “Strings of St. John’s.” The “Strings of St. John’s” is a chamber orchestra based at St. John’s Church on Somerset Street in Ottawa. Conducted by Gordon Johnston, this group presents several concerts each year, usually with a featured guest soloist or soloists. The “Strings of St. John” has a concert with clarinetist Greg Young coming up in late October and early November. The group’s website can be found at www.stringsofstjohns. ca. The group was formed in 1998 when cellist Patrick Line and violist Therese Durdin came up with the idea of forming a small string orchestra. Following the example of several famous orchestra, the group named itself after the church where it is based. Margot Lange, who played the violin with “The Crumble Quartet” at the Gaia Java shop last Friday, has bee playing the violin since the age of three. She came from her native Guelph to Ottawa to study at the University of Ottawa in 1989. She currently teaches English as a Second Language in the Ottawa area. She has played with the University of Ottawa orchestra, the Ottawa symphony Orchestra and now with the Strings of St. John’s and The Crumble Quartet. Her fellow violinist with The Crumble Quartet, Julia Sandquist played with various community orchestras in the Toronto area as well as with the Kingston Symphony and the Ottawa Symphony. She has been a member of the Strings of St. John’s since 1999. Mary Young, who plays viola with The Crumble Quartet, came to Ottawa from south-

So Chris McCann followed by Natalie MacMaster on the opening night of this year’s Richmond Fair. Awesome. But it gets even better as the Fair moves along. Friday night in the arena will see performances by Alex Ryder and Kim Mitchell. Saturday afternoon will feature a performance by members of “A Classic Country Re-vu� which includes Mike Fahey on vocals and guitar and North American Hall of Fame Fiddler Peter Dawson, featuring music not only from the golden era of country music with artists such as Hank Williams, Johnny Cash and Merle Haggard but also music from recent stars like George Strait and Alan Jackson. The Saturday night dance will feature the country music trio Blackwell and up-and-coming country music artist Chad Brownlee. The Sunday afternoon in the arena will then feature Bandit as well as country music headliner George Fox.

Some of these are performances with her husband fellow fiddler Donnell Leahy of the legendary Leahy family while others are full band shows while others are guest appearances or appearances with a symphony orchestra or with other fiddlers. But you can see that Natalie MacMaster is still very much a busy and sought-after performer. To have her appearing at the Richmond Fair on Thursday, Sept. 19 at 9 p.m. is bound to be one of the highlights of this year’s Fair. Natalie MacMaster has electrified audiences all over the world, thrilling Carnegie Hall audiences and Massey Hall crowds. She has numerous television appearances to her credit including guest spots on Christmas specials like Rita MacNeil’s “Christmas.� Now a mother of five with the arrival of a son Alec in Aug. 2012, Natalie is a devoted husband and mother but her on-stage performances remain dynamite – she is an entertainer, fiddler and performer par excellence. Just ask her audiences who are left clapping, hollering and screaming for more. She even does some step dancing and fiddling at the same time, something which she has done since she was 16 years old and something that always brings about a great audience reaction. But it is Natalie’s majesty with the bow and her intricate technique in making the diddle sing in the Cape Breton tradition that really makes her an on-stage hit. And although Cape Breton fiddle music is her favourite, she also plays pop, rock, country, classical, jazz, bluegrass and other styles of music. But it’s always performed with a Cape Breton flair. This performance by Natalie MacMaster on the Richmond Fair’s opening night on Thursday, Sept. 19 marks the beginning of an array of entertainment that will last throughout the Fair. Natalie MacMaster’s 9 p.m. show on Thursday, Sept. 19 will be preceded by a performance by Chris McCann, an Ottawa-born singer and songwriter who has two albums to her credit.

Community BBQ Continued from page 1
0801.R0012235386
Members from all of the Legion branches in the west Ottawa area are being invited to attend. But don’t worry – there’s going to be lots of parking. Obviously not in the Legion parking lot because this is going to be filled with food and fun attractions but around the Legion – next door at Johnson (Bradley’s) Insurance and at Frederick Banting Alternate Program (former Stittsville Public School), across the street at the Stittsville Child Care lot and on the south side of the Legion in the Dharma Developments project. The key is that everyone from the community is welcome and indeed encouraged to attend, not only to enjoy themselves but also to welcome the military families, many new to the area, who are expected to attend. Indeed, that is what this is all about, namely developing a partnership between the Stittsville Legion and the MFRC-NCR so that military families new to the area will have a local spot where they can find out about their new community and city. The MFRC-NCR itself is located at Uplands, so it is not close for military
families in the west Ottawa area. By establishing partnerships with local Legion branches, it is hoped to provide the resources that these new military families in the area require by having them access them from a local location rather than having to travel to Uplands. This community BBQ will also see half of its proceeds go to the Stittsville Legion Building Fund as the 83 year old building is in need of some renovations and upgrades. The Legion Hall is the home of the Stittsville branch of the Royal Canadian Legion but it is also a facility that is made available for free to many community groups. As such, it plays a major role in the community. The Stittsville Legion and the MFRC-NCR have worked together earlier this year. In combination with the Stittsville Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) Spouses group, a ladies’ night was held at the Stittsville Legion Hall where cards were made, where laughter prevailed, where dessert trays donated by Bistro 54 Restaurant were gobbled up and where a piece of jewellery was donated to all active duty members, female veterans, military wives, teenage daughters and war brides. The evening also featured the donation of $2,500 from the Stittsville Legion to the MFRC-NRC to help with future events involving the CAF families in Stittsville.

Big turnout for Nordic pole walking clinic Special to the News
News - Don’t be surprised if you see a lot more people out and about on Stittsville’s sidewalks and pathways waking with poles. That’s because a free Nordic pole walking clinic in Stittsville on Monday evening, July 22 drew such a crowd, some 40 to 50 people, that the clinic not only changed locations but yet another clinic was scheduled for this past Monday evening, July 29 due to the overwhelming interest. Janet Crawford, the instructor who
is hosting these clinics, notes that the turnout at the July 22nd clinic was “fantastic” and this is from someone who has hosted these clinics in other communities such as Carp and other Valley towns. The July 22nd clinic was to be held at the Pioneer Plains Park parking lot in the Jackson Trails subdivision at the corner of Stittsville Main Street and Kimpton Drive but due to the turnout, the site was shifted across the street to the parking lot of St. Stephen Catholic School in order to accommodate all those who turned
out. The instruction is provided on a paved surface to replicate the type of surface on which most Nordic pole walking will be done. The turnout spawned the followup clinic this past Monday. Nordic pole walking is simply walking with poles but the addition of poles greatly enhances the health value of the exercise. Instructor Janet Crawford is a nurse who has become a passionate advocate of Nordic pole walking and its health benefits. At her free clin-
ics, she provides the poles for use by participants and gives all of the instruction necessary on the proper technique in using the poles to gain maximum benefit from using them while walking. The clinic also provides participants with the free opportunity to discover if Nordic pole walking is something that they will enjoy or not. It’s like a free trial run. Nordic pole walking lends itself to individual participation although it can also be done with others or in a group. Once you have your own
poles, you can walk out your door and go for a walk whenever you want to. It’s the health benefits that are most glaring in all of this. Just by adding poles to walking, you vastly increase your caloric burn and make the exercise much more beneficial. That’s because you are using more of your body muscles when you add poles to ordinary walking. During a typical 45 minute excursion, a Nordic walker can use up to 90 percent of the body muscles and can burn up to 46 percent more calories than a regular walker would. See HEALTH BENEFITS, page 7

Nordic pole walking enthusiast and instructor Janet Crawford explains about Nordic pole walking at the free Nordic pole walking clinic which she hosted in Stittsville on Monday evening, July 22.
Health benefits from Nordic pole walking Continued from page 6
And even though the health benefits are greatly enhanced by walking with poles, it is no more difficult than walking. So you are not exhausted at the end of a pole walk even though you are reaping so many more exercise benefits from it. Nordic pole walking technique is easy to learn and the poles are adjustable so that you can easily make them the height that they need to be for your own personal use. Nordic pole walking began in Finland more than 30 years ago where cross country skiers
found that walking with poles in the off-season helped them stay in shape. Ensuing studies showed that walking with poles is even better for fitness maintenance than cycling which only uses isolated muscles. Nordic pole walking uses about 90 percent of a body’s muscles. The website www.nordixx.com carries lots of information about Nordic pole walking and its exercise benefits. For more information about Nordic pole walking or for information about technique and poles, you can contact Janet Crawford at jcrawford6122@hotmail.com or at 613-623-2978.

I was referred to Shane when I had made the decision to sell my home. Not only did he respond immediately to my request but he also explained exactly what he would do to get my home sold quickly. I cannot say enough about the excellent level of service that was provided by both Shane and Courtney. The process of selling can be extremely stressful but they were there to help me through it and were always available to answer my questions or concerns. I would not hesitate in recommending them to any other family or friends!

Respect is a two-way street
T
here are no winners in the case of an OC Transpo bus driver who was fired for yelling at a customer. Paul Gagnier was dismissed in November 2011 after a verbal confrontation with a young man who antagonized Gagnier, although he may not have done so intentionally. The yelling was captured on video and posted online, resulting in thousands of views and pressure on OC Transpo to act. Our transit service then over-reacted by firing Gagnier. An arbitrator considered all the factors in play and decided he did not deserve to lose his job because of the mitigating factors in Gagnier’s life. Fortunately the end result – delivered by an arbitrator this week – righted some of the wrongs. Gagnier will be rehired, but only to a non-driving position, so he does not deal directly with OC Transpo’s customers. The arbitrator’s report notes that Gagnier had 24 years of service – suggesting he knew his job well and was valued. He did, however, become the primary caregiver for his sick father in the months before the shouting incident and had been spat on by a customer four
days earlier. Arbitrators are paid to take into the big picture into consideration, and it’s clear from the written report released last week that the job was carried out diligently. OC Transpo went too far in firing a good employee who snapped. No one was physically harmed by Gagnier’s over-reaction, although some nerves were jarred. The arbitrator’s ruling treats Gagnier fairly while ensuring the city’s bus riders won’t deal directly with him again. In hindsight, it would have been best if this position set down by the arbitrator was the same one taken by OC Transpo in the aftermath of the shouting match video making into the public realm. Firing can sometimes be the right thing, but it’s always worth exploring other options first. The only piece of the puzzle still missing is a clear idea of what other actions constitute a firing offence when an OC Transpo employee acts out of turn. The arbitration decision doesn’t deliver that information, so it’s critically important that the management and the union sit down to hammer out a code of conduct or expectations for staff. We expect transit riders to be respectful and we must expect no less from OC Transpo’s employees.

For the good of everyone – just get the jab
M
y lovely daughter – let’s call her Little Darling – had her 12month vaccinations this week. Three needles consecutively, a big scream (or three) and it was all over in less than 90 seconds. Will she be traumatized? No. Is she at higher risk for developmental problems? No. Will she develop autism? Most definitely not. Unfortunately, there is an entire contingent of the population that puts all of us at risk – those who aren’t getting their children vaccinated. In early July, Ottawa Public Health and the Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario distributed a city-wide memo stating that a case of measles in an unimmunized child has exposed up to 50 families in the city to a disease that is almost entirely preventable. Canada’s childhood vaccination rate hovers around 84 per cent, which is dangerously low. In April, Canadian Press reported that a Unicef study on the health of children in affluent nations put Canada’s childhood vaccination rate at the bottom of a list of 30 countries. The report went onto question the validity of the findings, due to an absence of a national vaccine registry in Canada. But there is no question that vaccine uptake

is decreasing, evidenced by a handful of high profile outbreaks of measles and rubella in recent years. The anti-vaccination movement gained steam following the publication of a falsified study by a British doctor and surgeon in the late 1990s that linked the measles, mumps and rubella (MMR) vaccine to autism and inflammatory bowel syndrome. Despite the fact that the study’s main author, Andrew Wakefield, was found to be a complete fraud and had his medical license revoked, the damage from the media frenzy around his original falsified findings continues today. Doctors and scientists have tried and failed to reproduce the results originally published

by Wakefield and his colleagues in the British medical journal, The Lancet. The journal officially retracted the study in 2010. Even those who have dedicated their lives to discovering the root causes of autism have invalidated Wakefield’s claims. “The evidence just isn’t there to support a linkage between vaccines and the cause of autism,� Margaret Spoelstra of Autism Ontario told CTV News on July 23. What’s most disgusting is that people – including high-profile people – continue to tout Wakefield’s claims as truth. Former Playboy Playmate, and the newest host of U.S. talk show The View, Jenny McCarthy, has actually claimed the MMR vaccine caused autism in her child and that she “cured� it by giving the child a gluten-free diet. At the end of July, Toronto Public Health waged a Twitter campaign against McCarthy, asking The View, to reconsider having an antivaccine advocate in a position of significant influence. For vaccines to be effective requires a critical mass in uptake. Eighty-four per cent isn’t enough. It’s been just 58 years since the creation of the polio vaccine, which means there are people today still living with the devastating
effects of a disease that should now be eradicated. What’s it going to take to get people to reject the falsehoods of McCarthy, Wakefield and others? With the steady decline in childhood vaccination uptake, it may just be a deadly outbreak of some kind. But really, with all the medical evidence in support of vaccines, do we really need someone to die before we give our collective heads a shake and give the kids the jab? Charles Gordon’s column will return.

Letter: Concerned about subdivision proposal MP hosting ‘In Your Area Days’ meetings it would be a pity to remove the last vestige of this natural history. People need to know what is underneath their houses. We are also concerned by other, practical aspects of the project, including that the only entry to the proposed subdivision is shown as Elm Crescent at the existing Hemlock Road allowance. The proposal includes the building of 140 housing units, a lot for a small space. We invite residents of the surrounding community to come together to analyze and assess the proposal and are willing to spearhead this effort. Working together, we can reduce individual effort and duplication. If our neighbours and others who will be impacted by this would like to join us, possibly forming a community association as we go, we would be pleased if they would contact us at 613-836-3970 or at keldine@keldine.ca. We will try to arrange a meeting for after the upcoming long weekend. Keldine FitzGerald and Gerry Kroll Stittsville

Editor: We are very concerned about the proposal to destroy and build on the last piece of wetland in the south end of Stittsville, if not the whole village. (Zoning By-law Amendment and Plan of Subdivision – File Nos. D07-16-13-0016 and D02-02-13-0057 – Address is 6279 Fernbank Road). The wetland touches Elm Crescent near the soccer fields and stretches back behind Meadowland Drive and Porter Street and thence to Fernbank Road. This land is spring fed and often has widespread water up to 60 cm (2 feet) deep. It is home to the remaining frogs and many other species whose habitat has already been largely wiped out by development. When we were Goulbourn Township, the area was classified wetland and protected. This designation was removed for some unexplained reason after municipal amalgamation but should properly still be in place. Much of Stittsville is built on wetland and

Heartbeats take you back See Land of Oz in free movie john.curry@metroland.com
News - It’s back to the 1950s and 1960s at the Richmond fairgrounds in Richmond on Thursday, Aug. 8. This musical flashback is due to the appearance of the Heartbeats, a five piece show band that specializes in the nostalgic rock ‘n roll music of the 1950s and 1960s. This band has been performing its “golden oldies” throughout the Ottawa Valley and the Outaouais for over 25 years. And what could you hear at this free concert, the second such Thursday evening concert at the Richmond fairgrounds sponsored by Waste Management in cooperation with Rural West Recreation of the city of Ottawa? How about 1955’s “Tutti Frutti” by Little Richard; or “Sixteen Candles” by the Crests in 1956; or “Great Balls of Fire” by Jerry lee Lewis in 1957; or “Wake Up, Little Suzie” by the Everly Brothers in 1957; or “Diana,” Paul Anka’s career-launching song in 1957; or “Rock Around The Block,” the 1954 rock ‘n roll classic by Bill Haley and his Comets; or “Blue Suede Shoes” by Carl Perkins in 1955; or “Peggy Sue” by Buddy Holly in 1957; or “Oh, Donna” by Richie Valens in 1958; or “Runaway” by Del Shannon in 1961; or “Oh, Pretty Woman” by Roy Orbison in 1964; or Elvis Presley’s “Can’s Help Fallin’ In Love”; or “Runaround Sue” by Dion and the Belmonts in 1960; or “I Saw Her Standing There” by the Beatles in 1963; or “Surfin’ USA” by the Beach Boys in 1962; or “Mustang Sally” by Wilson Picket in 1966; or “Mountain of Love” by Johnny Rivers in 1964; or “Hang On Sloopy” by the McCoys in 1965. And these
are just some of the songs in Heartbeats’ play list but they show what kind of music you will be hearing at this Aug. 8 concert in Richmond. Members of the Heartbeats include Denny Welburn on lead guitar; Pat Hallett on rhythm guitar; Roger Heroux on bass guitar; Roddy McCann on saxophone; and Richard Wills on drums. This free Thursday evening concert will run from 7 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. There will be a cashonly BBQ held before the concert, starting at 6 p.m. All funds raised by this BBQ will go to support local youth initiatives. In addition, as has been the cast at other free concerts sponsored by Waste Management, donations for CHEO will be accepted at this concert. Those planning to attend this concert are reminded to take along a lawn chair or blanket for seating. This is the second of two free Thursday evenings concerts being sponsored by Waste Management in cooperation with Rural West Recreation of the city of Ottawa at the Richmond fairgrounds in Richmond. The country music trio “Blackwell” are performing at the first of these free Thursday evening concerts this Thursday, Aug. 1 at 7 p.m. These two free Thursday evening concerts at the Richmond fairgrounds in Richmond are being followed by two free Thursday evening concerts at Village Square Park in Stittsville.

News - The Land of Oz, made famous in the 1939 film The Wizard of Oz, will come alive once again on the screen at Village Square Park in Stittsville this coming Tuesday, Aug. 6. That’s when “Oz: The Great and Powerful,” a 2013 American fantasy adventure film, will be shown in the ongoing series of free Tuesday evening movies at the park. “Oz: The Great and Powerful” is set in the year 1905, 20 years before the events of the original “Wizard of Oz” novel. It focuses on Oscar Diggs, a small-time magician in a trveling circus, who ends up in the Land of Oz where he encounters three witches: Theodora, Evanora and Glinda. He is believed to be a wizard destined to bring peace to the land and so becomes involved in restoring order in Oz while struggling to resolve conflicts with the witches and also with himself and his ethics. A Disney production, “Oz:

This movie “Oz: The Great and Powerful” is the first of several movies to be shown for free on Tuesday evenings in August at 8:30 p.m. at Vil-
lage Square Park. Subsequent movies will include “Wreck-It Ralph,” a 2012 American computer-animated family comedy film produced by Walt Disney Animation Studios that tells the story of an arcade game villain who dreams of becoming a hero, travelling between games in the arcade and eventually battling a dire threat that could affect the entire arcade, which will be shown on Tuesday, Aug. 13 at 8:30 p.m.; “The Odd Life of Timothy Green,” an American fantasy comedy drama film from Walt Disney Pictures about a magical boy whose personality and naivete have profound effects on the people of his town, which will be on the screen at Village Square Park on Tuesday, Aug. 20 at 8:30 p.m.; and “Mary Poppins,” a 1964 musical film starring Julie Andrews and Dick Van Dyke that won numerous Academy Awards including a Best Actress Oscar for Julie Andrews, which will be shown on Tuesday, Aug. 27 at 8:30 p.m. Again, all of these movies are free to watch.

Over 46 years of volunteer work with Museum John Curry john.curry@metroland.com
News - Three who have contributed over 46 years in volunteer work altogether with the Goulbourn Museum were honoured at the Museum’s annual appreciation evening on Thursday, July 25. Their names – Hilda Moore, Virginia Notley and Sheila Cain-Sample - are now engraved on the Museum’s Heritage Advocacy Award which the Museum presents annually to a person or persons who have made an outstanding contribution to the Goulbourn Museum. Hilda Moore was a member of the Goulbourn Museum Board and its predecessor Museum Committee of the Goulbourn Township Historical Society from 1995 to this year when she stepped down at the Museum’s annual general meeting in April. She served as the Board chair for a number of years. Virginia Notley was a member of the Goul-
bourn Museum Board and its predecessor Museum Committee of the Historical Society also from 1995 to stepping down at last April’s annual general meeting of the Museum. She had served as the Museum’s treasurer. Sheila Cain-Sample was a member of the Goulbourn Museum Board and its predecessor Museum Committee of the Historical Society from 2002, serving as the Board’s secretary. She also stepped down as of last April’s annual general meeting. In announcing that the Heritage Advocacy Award was being presented to these three longtime Goulbourn Museum volunteers and supporters, current Museum Board chair Linda Preston noted that these three have played a big role in helping bring the Museum to where it is today. Previous recipients of this Heritage Advocacy Award have been Pat Roberts in 2010 and Linda Preston and Cheryl McCoy in 2011. Pat Roberts, widow of the late Barry Rob-
erts, contributed his research papers to the Museum. Mr. Roberts, who was a strong supporter of the Goulbourn Museum, did much research on the history of Ashton and also on the history of the 100th Regiment of Foot which provided many of the initial settlers to Richmond and
Goulbourn. His book, “For King and Canada,” telling the story of the 100th Regiment of Foot and its role in the War of 1812, is considered the most complete and detailed account of the Regiment’s history. See MUSEUM, page 15

Linda Preston and her sister Cheryl McCoy have collaborated to produce two volumes of â&#x20AC;&#x153;Voices from Goulbournâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Past,â&#x20AC;? with the proceeds from the sale of the books going to the Goulbourn Museum. They are currently working on a third volume. In her remarks at the appreciation evening, Museum Board chair Linda Preston praised the efforts of those who volunteer with the Goulbourn Museum. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Without you, there would be no Museum,â&#x20AC;? she told the volunteers who were present at the event, calling them priceless. She said that volunteers with the Museum carry out various tasks, noting that volunteers had contributed 2,140 hours of volunteer work for the Museum in 2012. Chair Preston also thanked all those who had donated artifacts and materials to the Goulbourn Museum, noting that over 300 artifacts had been donated last year. This ranged from tools to medicine bottles to old photographs. She said that such donated artifacts are used for research and education purposes by the Museum. The appreciation evening took the form of an outdoor picnic on the grounds of the Museum which is located at Stanleyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Corners just south of Stittsville. Over 50 people ranging from Goulbourn Museum staff, Museum Board members, volunteers, donors, sponsors and partners were present to enjoy the event. Former Goulbourn Museum curator/director Donna Keays-Hockey was among those in attendance. The appreciation evening was used by the Museum as an opportunity to select the winner of a War of 1812 stamp contest open to members of the Museumâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Kits Club for youth. Four entries in the contest were on display at the event, with those present able to submit a vote for a favourite of the entries. This voting would be used to determine the winner. The entries were those of Edward Jones, age 5; Zoe Flanders, age 4; Emerson Jones, age 8; and Eliza Jones, age 7. The winner will be receiving a customized gift basket.

experience at a re-enactment event at Ford Niagara, N.Y. Here is her account of that experience: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s night by the time we arrive which is often the case. That doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t dampen my excitement. We have driven most of the day to arrive at Fort Niagara and weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re finally here. We followed the winding roads through the park and up a hill so steep that it put my hair on end. Then I watched from my little Toyota as my dad Bram squeezed his giant Ford Expedition through a narrow stone archway and into the interior of the fort. I am standing on the lawn in front of a wide stone building called â&#x20AC;&#x153;the French castle.â&#x20AC;? I can hear the waves from Lake Ontario breaking against the rocks of this fort which sits in the mouth of the Niagara River. From where I stand, I can see tents and figures moving in circles of fire light. I canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t stop smiling. It feels like Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m home as I am one of those crazy people who spends weekends in the
18th century. The smell of wood smoke and canvas takes me to a place where life is simple and the pace is slow. Here we donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t worry about the hundreds of things that are on-thego back in the 21st century. Here we live outdoors and eat simple food that tastes better for its lack of refinement. We become in tune with the weather, the sounds and movements of these breathtaking historical places. Right now I am standing on this lawn, watching bats swoop above my head and smiling like an idiot. Meanwhile my parents return from a reconnaissance of the surrounding camp to tell us we can set up anywhere. I can tell this is a going to be a good weekend. Some re-enactment events that I have attended are very strictly run. They have rules about how the tents are to be arranged and where the cook fires can be. They have dress codes and early morning meetings. I understand the reasons for this, especially in high profile historical parks. I understand that they want everything to be safe and as historically accurate as possible. But sometimes you find a lovely little event in a beautiful place where the rules are few and the organization is relaxed. Fort Niagara is one of these. We pick a vacant spot with a fire pit, right beside the water. We set up our tents and kitchen fly using a strange combination of flashlight and candle lantern. Already we have been half transformed by this place. Tomorrow the transformation is complete. For tonight, we stow our vehicles away in far off parking lots and snuggle into our canvas wedge tents, listening to the waves lapping and the wind coming off the lake. In the morning, I wake up happy. I hug my smoke-smelling wool blankets around me and hear the sounds of a fort coming to life. Wood and leather soled shoes are clopping along the pathway near our tent. Soldiers are dressing and arming for the day. Fires are being coaxed to life. Still, I am lying here as I am waiting. Waiting for the coffee to bready. When I judge that the time is right, I emerge half dressed from my tent to finish dressing in the sunshine. I wriggle into my stays, tuck my hair up into a cap, and fill my mug with coffee cooked over a fire. The next hour is filled with breakfast and chatter as we learn about the events planned for the day. Then the men put on their uniforms. We portray a highland regiment, the 84th Highland Emigrants. So, when I say that the men put on their uniforms, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not as simple as it sounds. Sometimes it takes half an hour to get everyone kitted up. And a highland soldier in full dress uniform, bristling with weapons of every sort, is something to see. Once dressed and armed, we send our men folk off to battle while we women settle down to weave and stitch, The sound of artillery and muskets firing draws the crowd and leaves us strangely peaceful. We take some time to climb the hill and watch our soldiers hold off the rebels attempting to breach our walls. See LIVING THE PAST, page 17

We cheer them on and hope their muskets ďŹ re. In the afternoon there is a court martial. It seems the sentry guarding that part of the fort was lured away by rebel doxies and now will have to answer for his desertion. The soldiers that garrison this fort make a show of the trial, joking and making us laugh. They obviously enjoy their job, though it takes a special kind of person to love this life. We sleep on the ground in tents with no ďŹ&#x201A;oors. The soldiers wear wool uniforms, long pants and sleeves, no matter what the weather. Our men wear leather stocks around their necks. We cook all our foot over a ďŹ re which can be hot and smoky. We
do not always have shelter from the sun or the rain but we blossom here. We play-act and make the most interesting friends. We know we are among people we can trust, people who share the same special insanity. Once convicted of leaving his post, our hapless sentry in the court martial is strapped to a cannon and 50 lashes are administered for show. At night, there is dancing and my brother Bram Jr. learns to fence on the darkening lawn in front of â&#x20AC;&#x153;the French castle.â&#x20AC;? The bats whiz above me, a part of the living, breathing history of this place. We have come here to bring this fort to life but have found it to be already alive â&#x20AC;&#x201C; full of ghosts and echoes of many battles. I feel lucky to be here to see this place as it used to be: full of men and women who
are living in a time of conquest and war but also of new beginnings. I think of the people who came to this country before me and the hardships they faced with such strength and perseverance. But I also think of the fresh starts and new lives that they were granted. I hope to bring some of that strength and acceptance to my own life when I leave here. I tuck myself up in my dew-damp tent and wrap my warm blankets around me. I smell the earth beneath me and the lake outside. Laughter and music ďŹ&#x201A;oat on the breeze that cools our camp. People are drinking, carousing, telling stories of a life that is caught somewhere between the internet and the drum. I dream of tomorrow and all of the camps to come.

Proposed snow disposal facility Special to the News
Reforming the Senate
News - It may be August and while snow is not in the air literally, it is in the air from a discussion point of view. And the discussion is all about a proposed snow disposal facility which the city of Ottawa is proposing on Westbrook Road just off the Carp Road in the West Carleton Industrial Park. The new facility would lie on a site between Westbrook Road and highway 417 to the north. This is the second open house related to an Environmental Assessment that is underway to determine the appropriateness of the site for such a snow disposal facility. The first open house held last February dealt with various alternative sites for the
facility. This open house will presents results from various investigations pertaining to this site. Alternative designs and mitigating measures will be evaluated and a recommended preferred design will be put forward. At this public open house, members of the public will be able to discuss the Environmental Assessment study with members of the study team and will have an opportunity to provide input and comment. The open house, which will take place on Tuesday, Aug. 6, will run from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. at the Goulbourn Town Hall (former Goulbourn municipal building) at Stanley’s Corners. There will be no formal presentation made during the open house. There will
be an opportunity to examine various display boards outlining the topics being dealt with at the open house as well as speak with study team members. Following this public open house, comments received will be reviewed and a final study report will be prepared. This final draft report will be available for a 30 day public review period following publication of a “Notice of Completion.” The site for this proposed new snow disposal facility for the city of Ottawa lies in the Rideau-Goulbourn municipal ward represented by councillor Scott Moffatt. The site is not in the Stittsville ward as it lies outside the city’s urban serviced boundary.
Two weeks ago, Prime Minister Stephen Harper announced his largest cabinet shuffle since coming to power in 2006. As part of this shuffle, I was honoured with the role of Minister of State (Democratic Reform). It is a great honour to be given this responsibility. I look forward to the upcoming challenges and the successes we will have in implementing true Senate reform. The Conservatives are the only party who have a real plan for this reform, including strict new accountability rules to prevent further abuse of taxpayer dollars. I believe in the Prime Minister’s democratic reform agenda, and will work to make it happen. Canadians understand that our Senate, as it stands today, must either change or even vanish like the old upper houses of our provinces. The process of implementing change can be difficult and complex, given that the Senate is a part of our Constitution. This is why our government has requested further clarification from the Supreme Court regarding what change is possible. We are expecting an answer on that next year. While my new responsibilities will keep me busy, I will continue to serve as your Member of Parliament with the same dedication as before. I am grateful for all the support that many of you have given me throughout my terms representing Nepean-Carleton and, moving forward, I welcome your thoughts on how I can best do my work. I have always believed in individual freedom through less government. I will continue to work towards this goal as your Member of Parliament, and in my new role as Minister of State (Democratic Reform). Pierre Poilievre MP Nepean-Carleton

EMERALD ASH BORER - COMING TO AN ASH TREE NEAR YOU This little beetle is a highly destructive insect native to the Asian Continent. It was discovered in the Windsor/ Detroit corridor in 2002. It has since destroyed millions of trees. It was discovered in the City of Ottawa in 2008. Since that time the City of Ottawa, Leeds and Grenville have been quarantined and the movement of ash wood and wood products is prohibited. The City of Ottawa removed 800 affected trees in the winter of 2011. The handling of ash trees that have been affected by emerald ash borer can take special techniques.

News – Holy Spirit Catholic Parish on Shea Road is sponsoring a two person refugee family while work continues on its original initiative to sponsor a family of four from Iraq. This new family consists of a 61 year old mother and her 27 year old daughter who are Christians fleeing Iran. A religious order has donated the funds needed to cover the cost of bringing this two person family to Ottawa. It is anticipated that the new family will arrive in Ottawa in late September. Meanwhile, the Parish’s refugee sponsorship group is continuing to work with the Catholic Immigration Centre to bring the original family to Ottawa. However, any arrival date in Ottawa for this family is uncertain at present…The Community Bible Church on Stittsville Main Street held Camp Kingdom Rock for youngsters last week. The full day, full week camp ran from Monday, July 22 to Friday, July 26 from 9 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. each day. Activities ranged from music to drama to crafts, to games, to outdoor activities to snacks.

commercial”, with a class 11 active ingredient. TreeAzin is exempt from Ontario’s Cosmetic Pesticide Ban Act.
WHAT TO LOOK FOR: EAB is a slender, elongate insect about 1/3 - 1/2 inch long. It is widest just behind the head, gradually tapering back to the abdomen. It is a bright iridescent green to copper-green color, often with a copper colored area behind the head. Its body underneath the wings is a purplish-magenta color. Trees typically are killed in two to four years. When trees are first attacked by EABs, the symptoms are inconspicuous and hard to notice. By the end of the second year, thinning foliage and dieback in the crown begins to be
apparent. By the third year, there is severe dieback and little foliage. Ash can tolerate small numbers of EAB larvae but trees are girdled and killed when populations become more numerous. When the adults emerge, they create small, 1/8 inch D-shaped exit holes that are characteristic of this insect, although they can be hard to see. If you were to remove the bark on the trunk of a tree showing these symptoms, you should also find the larval galleries. Woodpecker attacks on ash could also indicate the presence of emerald ash borers.

Traditional Chinese musical instruments played at library John Curry john.curry@metroland.com
News - A classic Chinese scene might consist of a group of people sitting under a tree outside a temple
in a village, singing and playing the traditional Chinese musical instrument called the Erhu. And while the setting was not this idyllic Chinese scene but rather the meeting room at the Stittsville
branch of the Ottawa Public Library, the same music that might be heard by those under the tree in China was heard by those who attended a “Sound of Music” presentation by the Kanata Chinese Senior Support Centre at the meeting room on Thursday morning, July 25. That’s because the music came from an Erhu played by Hong Zhang, one of those associated with the Kanata Chinese Senior Support Centre who were involved in the presentation. The Erhu is a two stringed fiddle, one of the most popular Chinese string instruments. Wen Jean Ho, who led the Kanata Chinese Senior Support Centre’s presentation, noted that since the Erhu has only two strings, the person playing it with a bow has to pay close attention to have the correct sound produced. But this “Sound of Music” presentation involved much more than just the playing of one instrument. Niao Qui Zhou, another Kanata Chinese Senior Support Centre volunteer, played the Jing Hu, another two-stringed fiddle instrument that has a higher pitch than the Erhu. And when the two instruments were played together, as was done at this presentation, the library meeting room was filled with those traditional Chinese musical sounds that could
just as easily be the sounds heard under that faraway tree in China itself. Even more of a Chinese atmosphere was created when the two playing the instruments were joined by another Kanata Chinese Support Centre volunteer, 72 year old Meiling Li who provided a vocal accompaniment of a traditional Chinese nature. Wen Jean Ho, who narrated the presentation, commented that the voice of one accompanying these traditional Chinese musical instruments has to be high, pure and precise in tone. Meiling Li’s voice met these requirements. Those in attendance at this free presentation at the library were able not only to see and hear these traditional Chinese stringed instruments played while accompanied by singer Meiling Li but also they were able to actually hold the instruments themselves and even try to play them, although their efforts resulted in nothing like the beautiful music that the Kanata Chinese Senior Support Centre volunteers produced. Those attending were also able to see Chinese sheet music which is read “right to left,” opposite what is common in Western culture. The presentation was further enhanced by two videos which were played on the TV screen in the cor-
ner of the room, both featuring traditional Chinese music – one dealing with the journey of pregnancy and another showing a Chinese stage performance where the Erhu was used. This was the third presentation which the Kanata Chinese Senior Support Centre has made at the Stittsville branch of the Ottawa Public Library. Previous presentations focused on calligraphy and a traditional Chinese tea ceremony. Commentator Wen Jean Ho, who is president of the Kanata Chinese Senior Support Centre, said that the Centre hopes to host other programs in Stittsville to develop a dialogue in the community and to help people of different cultures get to know each other. She explained that the Kanata Chinese Senior Support Centre was started to help Chinese seniors in the Kanata area integrate more with the community. She said that volunteering is a good way of getting involved in the community and so that is why Centre seniors volunteer in community activities such as the recent Kanata Canada Day celebrations. The Kanata Chinese Senior Support Centre also has its own activities for the enjoyment of its members. The Kanata Chinese Senior Support Centre’s website can be found at www.kcssc.org.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;Good timingâ&#x20AC;? is how she puts it. And the rest is history. Three weeks later, the store was open, starting ten years of growth serving the beading community of the area, not only with a vast selection of beads but also with instruction classes and, perhaps most importantly of all, with the provision of a place where beaders can go and be with others of â&#x20AC;&#x153;like mindâ&#x20AC;? where they can do beading, chat about beading or simply chat about life in general. Vicki Green admits that at Dragonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Lair Beads, they love to have beaders drop in and sit at one of the tables where the instruction classes happen and work on their latest bead project. Vicki says that in this way she gets to see what customers are working on and often she is called on to help solve a technique problem or simply for advice on how a piece should be finished. We learn a lot from our customers, Vicki says, noting that she loves to see what a person has done in a beading project, what colours have been used and how the design has been interpreted.

ONLINE
News - Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Dragonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Den, that Canadian television show which debuted in 2006 and is now going into its eighth season in which aspiring entrepreneurs pitch business ideas to a panel of wealthy venture capitalists to try to get financing. But here in Stittsville thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a business that also carries the dragon name that has been around even longer than the long-running Dragonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Den TV series and thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Dragonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Lair Beads which marks its tenth anniversary in business this August. To mark the occasion, Dragonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Lair Beads, located at 83 Iber Road in Stittsville, is holding a tenth anniversary party with door prizes, demonstrations and cake on Saturday, Aug. 10 from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., with everyone welcome to drop in. And if you do drop in or if you have visited the Iber Road shop previously, you will not be able to miss the dragons on display there, popping up here and there. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s because many customers have simply given dragons to the store over the years. People come in and give us a dragon, says Vicki Green, who runs the
shop with her sister Nicola Shute. The dragon name came about after Vicki, on a trip to Charleston to buy some beads, spotted a dragon on display in the airport. Back home, she approached Stittsville Glass and Sign for a dragon logo and the end result was â&#x20AC;&#x153;Charlie,â&#x20AC;? the little purple dragon that is now the symbol of Dragonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Lair Beads. His colour was changed to purple because, quite simply, Vicki admits she likes purple. Charlie the purple dragon can now be found on Dragonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Lair Beads business cards and on the shopâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s website and signage, basically sitting down, presumably happily thinking about beading in its home liar. Dragon Liar Beads started out at a Stittsville Main Street location but quickly outgrew the space and seven years ago moved to its current Iber Road spot. It had been a home hobby which resulted in an ever-accumulating amount of beads. There ended up being enough of a beads inventory to open a store and so thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s what happened. The store ended up being in Stittsville as a â&#x20AC;&#x153;For rentâ&#x20AC;? sign was just being put in the window of the Stittsville Main Street location when Vicki was driving by.

Beads and more on Iber Road Continued from page 22
Vicki and Nicola are both avid beaders themselves and instruct most of the classes and courses offered at Dragon’s Lair Beads, many of which happen on Saturdays. “It’s fun,” Vicki says about beading. “If you love it, you love it.” She also notes that beading has a calming and relaxing effect on people, as she says that beading cannot be rushed and a person has to slow down to do it. “It’s a way for people to relax,” Vicki says. And beaders form quite a community among themselves. Beaders tend to be real interesting, talented people, Nicola Shute says, adding that everyone who beads is generally a happy person. That’s why the business is so much fun. Dragon’s Lair Beads is known for its Christmas tree spiders, an ornament that may pre-date tinsel. Over 10,000 have been made and sold over the years and these little bead and wire spiders have gone all over the world, including such far away places as Peru. A bead shop like Dragon’s Lair Beads stocks a lot of beads of different kinds and colours but even now, Vicki and Nicola admit that the shop does not have as much inventory as they would like. But they also admit
that they would need a huge building if they wanted to store all the beads in their different colours, shapes and sizes that they would like to have in the shop. For instance, there are glass and plastic beads as well as beads made from stone, crystals, pearls and wood. And things do change with regard to beads. Right now neon beads are quite the rage but this will be replaced by another colour rage within a couple of years or so. Even a certain shape of bead can go out of style. “Even beads have a lifespan,” Nicola says, noting that new shapes arrive and displace other shapes. One challenge for beaders is consistency in the colour of beads. They can be from the same manufacturer but perhaps from a different dye lot. This means that the colour may not be identical and it will show up in the work being done, whether it be a piece of jewellery or a purse or a bracelet or whatever is being created. There are also seasonal impacts in beading. In the summer, bright, happy colours prevail in beading work. In the fall, though, more earthy tones are preferred by beaders. Besides beads, Dragon’s Lair Beads also handles components for those who make chain mail bracelets, necklaces and earrings. Yes, this is
and art shows so that she stands out in the crowd. The aluminum chain mail vest weighs four pounds. This is where the family nature of Dragon’s Lair Beads comes through,
chain main using the same principles as that used by the knights of old for their armament. Indeed, Vicki has even made a chain mail vest that she wears at bead
The chain mail components are prepared by Norman Green, the father of Vicki and Nicola. See ANNIVERSARY PARTY, page 24 R0012228376_0801

In addition, their mother, Maureen, has just retired from the business but she still is at the shop every Friday where she helps weigh the bags of beads that are on sale in the shop. Nicola points out that Dragon’s Lair Beads offers a variety of instruction courses and classes, most of which are for beginners or for those wanting to learn a new technique. For instance, the Japanese technique, Kumihimo, has been around for centuries but has really taken off recently, with many beaders learning the technique. Classes may also deal with how to read a certain pattern or how to make a certain piece such as “The Star Fish” which was the subject of a recent new class. Class size can range from one to ten people, although one-on-one instruction is also JOHN CURRY/METROLAND possible.

ent ways to do the piece. They then share this with their customers. Beading is popular with all ages, although it is largely a hobby and business for women although men are involved, particularly with the chain mail technique. Dragon’s Lair Beads sells patterns, beading books and tools. With regard to tools, Dragon’s Lair Beads lets a person try the tool out to determine how the tool feels in the hand. While there are three basic tools in beading with which a person can do most beading, there are other tools available as well.

Bell Warriors tournament Special to the News
Sports - It was Warrior time at the Richmond Centennial Golf Club in Richmond last Saturday. It was the site of the annual golf tournament held by the Bell Warriors Football Club in which Warrior supporters hit the links for a day of fun. The tournament has been a Warrior tradition since it was inaugurated under former Warriors president Jim Wagdin of Richmond. Warriors vice-president of operations Tim Sheahan now organizes the tournament which this year saw a three way tie for first. That resulted in a putt-off with Team Papalia comprised of Joe Papalia, Joe Palaia Sr., Dan Crabtree and Richard Baylin emerging as the winner. There were plenty of gifts and prizes donated by Warrior supporters. The Big Rig Kitchen and Brewery donated the prize for the winning
team. The winning Team Papalia has a strong connection with the Warriors mosquito team for players aged 11 and 12. Joe Papalia Jr. is the head coach of the mosquito team while Dan Crabtree of Stittsville and Richard Baylin of Bells Corners are both coaches with the team. Among the sponsors of the tournament were CIBC (Hazeldean and Huntmar branch) of Stittsville and S & S Service Centre of Richmond. Bell Warriors Football Club president Paul Stewart of Richmond says that this golf tournament provides an opportunity for those associated with the Bell Warriors to relax together and get to know each other a little bit better. This helps in creating a more unified group who volunteer with the Warriors and provide a meaningful football experience for the youth involved.
Golfers wanted for tournament Special to the News
Sports - Calling all golfers – you can play in the Stittsville Legion’s annual Duffer Scramble tournament that is coming up.

Bandmaster Park lives up to its name - and more! John Curry john.curry@metroland.com
News - Bandmaster Park in the Fairwinds community in Stittsville lived up to its name last Saturday evening as the adult rock band “SpiderKillers” mastered the airwaves over the park with its musical offerings as the final highlight of the first annual Fairwinds Summer BBQ. But if Bandmaster Park were called Funmaster Park or Organ Music Park or BBQ Park or Entertainment Park, the name would apply just as much, because this Fairwinds Summer BBQ was all that and more – band music, fun galore for kids, a street organ, a BBQ and entertaining performances by the Pointe of Grace Dance Company, Cooligan Martial Arts and the Junkyard Symphony. And don’t forget the appearance by an Ottawa Fire Services truck at the beginning of the event which started at 4 p.m. and ran for more than four hours at the Bandmaster Park site. A highlight of the firefighters’ participation in the event was letting youngsters turn on and off a firefighting hose, causing a stream of water to gush out of the nozzle, much to the amazement and glee of the youngsters (and the firefighter assisting them seemed to be having a good time as well). The band “SpiderKillers” set up at the foot of a driveway at a home on Mistral Way right adjacent to Bandmaster Park for its performance which got underway at 7:20 p.m. following a period of sound checks as the band had to make some adjustments to accommodate for performing out-of-doors. But once the band got going, a number of youngsters danced on Mistral Way in front of the band while the rest of the audience of about 150 sat or stood around the nearby grassed parkland, taking in the music.
JOHN CURRY/METROLAND
Members of the rock band SpiderKillers who performed as the climax of the Fairwinds Summer BBQ at Bandmaster Park in Stittsville last Saturday evening are, from left, Ryan Shearer, bass guitar; Cathy Hallessey, vocals; Frank DaSilva, drums and backup vocals; and Brian Brodersen, guitar. “SpiderKillers” donated their appearance at this Fairwinds Summer BBQ after hearing that all proceeds raised at the event were going to be donated to the Stittsville Food Bank. Two of the band members recently moved to the Fairwinds area and longtime lead singer Cathy Hallessey teaches music in the Stittsville community. “SpiderKillers” has existed since 2007 with Cathy Hallessey as one of the original members. The band plays at various locations around the city of Ottawa, usually about once a month. The band used to play at Louisiannie’s in downtown Stittsville. Members of “SpiderKillers” who performed at the Fairwinds Summer BBQ were Cathy Hallessey, vocals; Brian Brodersen, guitar; Ryan Shearer, bass guitar; and Frank DaSilva, drummer (his drums had a spider and web on the front of the drum set) and backup vocals. But this performance by “SpiderKillers” was only the topping on
the cake for the Fairwinds Summer BBQ. There was tons of fun for youngsters at the event, ranging from face painting to tug-of-war to making bubbles in the air with racquets to moving balls by flapping a colourful parachute. The Pottery Playhouse of Stittsville was there, providing an opportunity for youngsters to exercise their creative side on a ceramic. And, of course, the play structure at Bandmaster Park saw plenty of action during the event. Alan Rushforth was on hand at this Fairwinds Summer BBQ, churning out music on his handmade street organ, complete with two miniature moose set up in front of the organ. His street organ music wafted over Bandmaster Park, adding a carnival atmosphere to the gathering. Of course, no event like this would be complete without food and there was plenty of it, all free, thanks to Kodiak Snowplowing and Lawn Care which set up and staffed the
BBQ and provided all of the food, both hamburgers and ever-popular hot dogs. The lineup was at times virtually halfway across the park and the demand showed as Kodiak staff had to rush away three times to get more food. Kodiak did not want anyone to miss out on the food and the BBQ kept pumping out the food until 6:30 p.m. when everything was all gone with an estimated 500 having been served. Besides the Kodiak BBQ, there was also a bake sale with items donated by community members. In addition, thanks to city of Ottawa Stittsville ward councillor Shad Qadri’s crew, there were sno-cones and cotton candy available, both sweet treats for the young and even the not so young. On top of all of this, there was the entertainment. Dancers from the Pointe of Grace Dance Company on Iber Road in Stittsville presented a couple of dance routines on the grass at the park, with viewers of all ages
gathering around to watch on the warm, late afternoon under slightly overcast skies. These dancers were later followed by a martial arts demonstration provided by those from Cooligan Martial Arts from Cedarow Court off Hazeldean Road just west of Huntmar Drive. And then there was the well-known Junkyard Symphony, with performers Juggling Joe and Marvellous Mike presenting a show that featured juggling (including balls, rings and a hat) as well as audience participation, both in cheering or drum-rolling with hands slapping the thighs and in providing youthful volunteers to help Juggling Joe with his performance. So, you had, for example, six year old Cole Emery dancing up a storm and seven year old Emilia Millar energetically participating as well. A number of prizes were given away in a raffle draw. Ayah Stretch, one of the event organizers, drew the winning numbers following the Junkyard Symphony performance, with those who held the winning tickets getting their pick of the prizes available, all donated by local businesses. When it was all said and done and all of the funds collected on the day were counted, there was $308.50 remaining after expenses that is being donated to the Stittsville Food Bank. But this is not all – there are also 20 bags filled with donated canned food items which were collected at this Fairwinds Summer BBQ, all earmarked for donation to the Stittsville Food Bank. So, Bandmaster Park could also be called Generous Park or Giving Park because that’s certainly what happened at this first annual Fairwinds Summer BBQ there last Saturday, with the Stittsville Food Bank benefitting from the generosity and giving attitude of those in the Fairwinds community.

July 26th 2013 STITTSVILLE BLOOD DONOR CLINIC The upcoming clinic in Stittsville is only booked at 53% of its collection target - we still need to fill 50 appointment slots. Based on our forecasts, we expect patients in hospitals across Canada to require approximately 150,000 units of blood during July and August. As Canadians prepare to celebrate the August Civic Holiday, many patients will be fighting to celebrate life itself. Canadian Blood Services is encouraging area residents to donate blood [and platelets] around the upcoming holiday. The need for blood never takes a holiday. Based on our forecasts, Canadian Blood Services expects patients in local hospitals to need 10,400 units of blood this summer. We encourage you to visit us online at www.blood. ca or call 1 888 2 DONATE (1-888-236-6283) today to book your appointment to give blood before or after this long weekend. City seeking public input on commemorative naming of the park that connects Crantham Crescent and Renshaw Avenue The City of Ottawa’s Commemorative Naming Committee is conducting public consultations regarding the naming of the park that connects Crantham Crescent and Renshaw Avenue in Stittsville as “Kenneth J. Watkins Pathway”. In recognition of Kenneth J. Watkins’ dedication and hard work, encouragement of community spirit, extensive community service and exceptional service to his community, the City of Ottawa has been asked to name the park that connects Crantham Crescent and Renshaw Avenue in Stittsville “Kenneth J. Watkins Pathway”. Ken Watkins has served his community as Secretary with Glen Cairn Community Association on a voluntary basis, and was elected as Councillor with Goulbourn Township Council – serving Glen Cairn, Stittsville, Ashton, and Munster Hamlet. During pre-amalgamation, he also served as head of Goulbourn Township’s finance committee. Today, Ken Watkins devotes his time to volunteering, including helping to raise $300,000 for the Candlelighters Foundation. View the online proposal for the “Kenneth J. Watkins Pathway.” Comments on this proposal must be received no later than Saturday August 17, 2013. OTTAWA CONSIDERS ALLOWING HOMEOWNERS TO PAVE LAWNS Intensification in Stittsville, Kanata, Barrhaven and Orleans has brought smaller lots with narrow driveways into compact neighbourhoods. With garages often used as storage space, families have only one space to park a vehicle and are restricted from hardscaping their front yards to accommodate extra cars. Under pressure from residents and councillors, the planning department is considering allowing homeowners in the suburbs to pave their yards or a portion of the yard to help families squeeze vehicles side-by-side in driveways. For the time being, the city is only considering to relax the bylaw in the suburban areas. Planners are collecting feedback through a survey at ottawa.ca/driveways and by e-mail at driveways@ottawa.ca. CITY OF OTTAWA SPEED SIGNS PILOT PROJECT The City of Ottawa Traffic Department is conducting a pilot project that began this week as a part of a traffic calming measure. Twelve 30 km speed signs have been placed on 12 of Ottawa’s streets. Two of these signs are located on Kittiwake. Currently Kittiwake is the only street in Stittsville to have these signs. The flex stake signs serve a couple of purposes. They are used primarily to warn drivers of a local playground adjacent to the roadway and the potential presence of children on or near the roadway. They also serve to narrow the roadway to encourage drivers to reduce their speeds. With the signs installed at the centre of the roadway, the eastbound and westbound lane widths on Kittiwake is approximately 5.4-5.5 m within the treated area which is sufficient width to accommodate parking as well as passing traffic if the vehicles are parked legally on Kittiwake Dr. A similar traffic-calming technique was used in Montreal where they have seen a significant decrease in speeding since this implementation.

OVERNIGHT CONSTRUCTION ON THE 417 There will be several nights of overnight construction work and traffic impacts scheduled to commence Sunday July 21st as part of the Highway 417 Widening project. While some of this work will occur in proximity to residential communities, due to the nature of the work, a high noise impact is not anticipated.

MARY COOK Mary Cook’s Memories
The good in thunderstorms Lifestyle - Thunderstorms in the country terrified Mother. Sadly, that fear was passed on to me. We crouched in corners, but never on an outside wall, and always away from the telephone that hung in the kitchen. If it was a really horrific storm, I often took to hiding under a bed. Storms that struck through the night were especially frightening. The lightning lit up the entire countryside and in the blackness of the night, rolling thunder roared, sounding like a gigantic train careening through our fields. It was not unusual for Mother to get all of us children out of our beds in the dead of night at the first sound of thunder or a flash of lightning. Father of course, slept through the entire storm. Mother constantly compared country storms with those she remembered from New York. With the heavy sounds of the city, storms there passed almost unnoticed, but the day lightning hit the pole that held our clothes line and followed it to the
end pole, Mother nearly collapsed. My sister Audrey, whom I thought took storms much too lightly, said we should be grateful that the clothes line was free standing and not attached to the corner of the house. I knew what she meant. Then one summer day, when we had gone through a particularly long dry spell, the sky in the west darkened and far off in the distance we could hear the rumble of thunder. We had finished our noon meal and by the time we had cleaned up the kitchen, the storm was upon us. Father said he would just sit a spell. My brothers had absolutely no fear in a storm. In fact, it wasn’t unusual for them to stand at the kitchen window and watch the lightning streak out of the black clouds. Mother had settled in a chair against the inside wall between the kitchen and the downstairs bedroom, Audrey, busied herself with her embroidery work and I was on a chair inches from Mother. The whole house shook with every clap of thunder and the storm seemed to hover right overhead for a very long time. I prayed it would soon go away and follow the Bonnechere River to another part of the valley. “Oh my God,” Emerson yelled. Everett yelled for Father to come quickly to the window looking out towards the west hill. Earl, the most timid of the three began to cry. I knew something terrible had happened. Father jumped from the rocker and ran to the west window; cautiously, Mother, Audrey and I followed. “The lightning,”
Emerson stammered. “It hit the big maple on the hill,” Everett said. Underneath the tree, where 11 of our Holstein cows had gone for shelter, we saw what had happened. They looked like they had laid themselves down to rest in the summer heat. But I knew without asking what had happened. The cows were dead -- killed by a lightning bolt that had struck the maple. I saw the stark horror on Father’s face, and Mother’s tearstreaked cheeks and I knew without a doubt that we would never recover the loss. What I saw next, once the storm had blown itself out, was Father and the brothers, walking behind the team of horses, pulling the double whiffletree and heading to the west hill. One by one, the dead Holsteins were dragged to the gravel pit and buried. The news of our loss spread quickly through the community of Northcote. Father said it could have been worse. Our young heifers were in the enclosure close to the barn, and two cows, for their own reasons had decided to stay at the bottom of the hill. And as always happened when tragedy struck in our farm community, neighbours responded. I saw them walking down our long lane leading a heifer or a cow over to our farm almost completely replacing our loss with a simple shake of a hand and a few words. That’s how things were done in the 1930s. As well as our terrible loss, the lightning strike only confirmed in Mother’s mind that storms were not to be taken lightly, but treated as the real danger they could be, and sadly sometimes were.

GRC aquatics employee charged Special to the News
News - An aquatics employee at the city of Ottawa pool at the Goulbourn Recreation Complex in Stittsville is now before the courts facing a variety of sex-related charges. The 30 year old city of Ottawa staff member was arrested on Thursday, July 25 when he was charged with the various criminal offenses. The charges stem from his work as a volunteer with Scouts Canada and not apparently
from his work as a city of Ottawa aquatics supervisor and lifeguard. The alleged criminal offenses apparently happened in 2012 and 2013 when the man was a Scouts Canada volunteer, with three alleged victims, all under 16 years of age. The man appeared in court last Friday and and then again last Monday where he was granted bail in the custody of his parents who live near Trenton..
