News - A stream of walkers in white t-shirts flowed along Stittsville Main Street last Sunday as Stittsville proved once again that it is a “kidney community.” It was the occasion of the third annual kidney walk in support of the Kidney Foundation, with walkers leaving the front of the Stittsville United Church at 11:20 a.m. to travel along Stittsville Main Street to Papa Sam’s at the corner of Beverly Street and then return to the church. This year teams such as “United We Walk” and “Crazy For Kidneys” carried team signs. Papa Sam’s, which has supported this walk for all three years of its existence, provided free ice cream to the walkers. Sunny, warm weather with blue skies overhead prevailed for this OHN BRUMMELL/METROLAND year’s kidney walk. The walk began following a brief Ginger Plante, left, and Iris Taichuk, right, walk arm-in-arm as they take part in the kidney walk in opening ceremony on the front steps of the church which included the Stittsville last Sunday.

presence of Stittsville kidney donors Helene Rivest, Eileen Turcotte, Elizabeth Hurst and Marianne Graham. Among the special guests were Carleton-Mississippi Mills MPP Jack MacLaren and city of Ottawa Stittsville ward councillor Shad Qadri. In fact, it was quite a day for councillor Qadri. Not only was he there to wish the walk participants well but also it was his birthday. The new got out and everyone sang “Happy Birthday” to the councillor during the opening ceremony. It was also a memorable day for councillor Qadri because the sister of his wife Theresa had undergone kidney surgery just the night before. That made this kidney walk raising awareness of kidney disease even more significant for him and his wife Theresa on a personal level. Rev. Grant Dillenbeck of Stittsville United Church gave a blessing before the walk began, expressing the hope that the walkers would be safe along the route of the walk.

News - Patrons at the Gaia Java coffee shop’s music evening last Friday may have thought that they had died and gone to heaven. That’s because they were able to enjoy the angelic music of the Celtic harp duo known as Acacia Lyra whose performance featured not one but two harps. Angels playing harps is a traditional depiction of what happens in heaven. This was the first time that a harp had been played at one of the Gaia Java’s regular Friday music evenings. And what an evening this was, with Acacia Lyra’s Janine Dudding and Susan Sweeney Hermon at times both playing harps and at other times with one playing the harp and the other playing a guitar. Added into this mix was

the intermittent use of other instruments such as a flute, a hand drum and a box-like instrument from India. And each musical offering featured vocals, either by Janine or by Susan or by the two of them together, with a variety of languages used – English, French, Spanish and Gaelic. The tunes played included traditional and contemporary tunes, many written by themselves but also some borrowed from traditional folk sources including French Canadian, Irish and Cuban and even one from the songbook of iconic Canadian singer/songwriter Gordon Lightfoot. Announced as one of their favourite songs, their Gordon Lightfoot piece was “Pussywillows, Cattails.” Janine and Susan also performed a song “Kate,” which Susan wrote and dedicated to Canadian folk singer Kate McGarrigle at the time of her death in 2010. Susan had attended

Fundraising with his fiddle Special to the News

News - A Stittsville resident is fundraising to help a six year old boy who suffers from a rare disease called Dravet Syndrome. Don Fletcher is a fiddler who has used his fiddle at other fundraising activities and he is hoping to use his fiddle to help with this fundraising in this case. He is looking for any business in Stittsville that would let him set up a chair near its door and play some tunes in return for donations for this fundraising cause. He is also willing to play the fiddle at any private functions in return for a donation to this cause. In addition, donations from individuals can be made online at http://dravetwalkforthekids.kintera.org/faf/donorReg/donorPledge.asp? and ievent=1115901&lis=1&kntae1115901=3 520D52042884D938980216D7DA58A51&su pld=410203530 . Mr. Fletcher is involved with this fundraising

because a co-worker of his is the parent of six year old Liam who suffers from this rare disease called Dravet Syndrome. Dravet Syndrome is a genetic disorder of Chromosome 2, causing epilepsy and other neurological and development problems. Dravet Syndrome accounts for one percent of the epilepsy population. Liam does and can suffer from over 100 seizures a day. He wants to return to school in grade one but he cannot yet attend due to medication issues. Mr. Fletcher will be participating in a “Walk for the Kids� event on Saturday, Sept. 20, taking place in Constance Bay where Liam and his family live. The fundraising will go to help Dravet.ca, a volunteer-based Canadian charity dedicated to providing education, support, research and advocacy on behalf of Canadians living with Dravet Syndrome. SUBMITTED

Fiddle player Don Fletcher of Stittsville is fundraising to raise funds for help in the fight against Dravet Syndrome from which a six year old boy Liam, the child of a co-worker of his, suffers.

Re-tracing canoe trip from 50 years ago Special to the News

News - A Stittsville resident has marked the 50th anniversary of a canoe expedition along the Ottawa River that he did as a youngster by recently re-tracing a portion of the trip. The original trip of 320 kilometers down the

Ottawa River from Mattawa to Britannia Beach in Ottawa happened in late August and early September in 1964. So it was on Thursday, Sept. 4 that Roger Chagnon of Stittsville, wanting to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the original voyage, left the beach at Constance

Bay around 10:30 a.m. in his yellow 16 foot canoe, headed for Britannia Beach. Upon his arrival at Britannia Beach at 6:45 p.m., he was greeted by his wife Jeanne and his five year old grandson Philip Mackenzie. Indeed, this may be the start of a family tradition. Perhaps, in 50 years from now, Philip might want to re-trace his grandfather’s commemorative voyage. Back in 1964, Roger was one of a Scouting group who made the initial voyage from Mattawa down the Ottawa River to Britannia Beach. They were members of the 1st Notre Dame Explorer Scouts of Ottawa, aged 15 to 17, under the guidance of leader Andre Cadieux. Besides Roger Chagnon, these Explorer Scouts were Ronald Beauchamp, Michel Casselman,

Michel De Champlain, Gerald Dupuis, Paul Geoffrion, Robert Johnson, Andre Leroux and Alfred Menard. On this original expedition, the boys and their leader paddled two Voyageur canoes. They had begun preparations for the trip a year before. This began by doing exercises to improve their physical condition. They also attended the Champagne Bath in Ottawa once a week to earn the Red Cross senior swimming badge which was required to go on the trip. Before the trip, they also made camping trips along the route, making maps of the portages and checking out sources of supplies. Then, beginning that May, the boys were on the water in canoes at least once a week, building up their paddling strength and proficiency in a canoe.

Roger Chagnon of Stittsville casts off his canoe from the beach at Constance Bay on Thursday morning, Sept. 4 as he re-traces part of a canoe trip on the Ottawa River in which he participated 50 years ago.

Good time to think big

D

oes each term of council need to pursue a defining civic project? If so, what would constitute such an endeavour? Recently, Coun. Jan Harder, who is running for re-election in Barrhaven Ward, said she intends to raise a new main library as “the next large, civic-purpose project that the city will move forward on� during the next term, if she gets her way. The main library is an obvious example of a significant civic project the city could pursue. A recent report presented to the library board indicated that even a major renovation of the current building would cost the city $75 million. At some point, the city will need a new flagship branch for the library system, so Harder’s suggestion would certainly fit the civic-project bill. What else could the city consider? Lansdowne Park, the most recent example of a major civic project, has already been revamped. LeBreton Flats is an eyesore on the face of the city, but its fate lies in the hands of the National Capital Commission. The Ottawa Baseball Stadium will see a minor face

lift, but council balked at providing a larger outlay to attract a high profile ball club to town. The expansion of Arts Court is a more recent example of a major civic project. Part of the problem with identifying a major civic project in Ottawa is that like LeBreton Flats, many of the civic spaces here are in the hands of the federal government. In addition, many of these capital city spaces serve as major civic sites – Parliament Hill, the Rideau Canal, and the Sir John A. Macdonald Parkway, for example. The federal government has the market cornered on civic spaces. This raises another question: does each term of council need to embark on a significant civic project? By identifying a new main library, Harder appears to be discounting something like the light rail project, a transit infrastructure project that could certainly qualify as a major city building project. Maybe Ottawa already has enough to occupy the next four years. If nothing else, Harder has raised an issue that deserves debate during the upcoming election, and provides food for thought for voters in Ottawa.

How can they stand all that traffic?

I

n Ottawa we have our little vexations, but for the most part it’s still a fairly convenient place to live. We complain about the traffic, but usually it doesn’t slow us down for more than five or 10 minutes. Toronto is a different story, as you know. A drive into the city on Labour Day gives you many additions to your list of reasons not to live there. Toronto on Labour Day? Well, a child’s birthday is involved. Anyway, the drive is to take place in the morning, so it won’t coincide with the mass migration from the cottage. No problem. One little thing, though, we are told, is to avoid the Gardiner Expressway, part of the usual route, because it’s the last day of the Canadian National Exhibition

It is also revealed that the Labour Day parade will be affecting downtown traffic. The parade route is available on our website, the announcer says. This is unhelpful and a bit scary, the scary part consisting of the thought that maybe some drivers are checking the website right now.

Electrifying positions about Hydro Ottawa John Curry john.curry@metroland.com

News - There was electricity in the air at the Richmond arena hall on Tuesday evening, Sept. 2. It was the occasion of a municipal candidates question and answer meeting hosted by the Richmond Village Association and mayoralty candidate Mike Maguire ignited the spark by calling for all areas of the city to be served by Hydro Ottawa. At present, the former municipalities of West Carleton, Rideau, Osgoode and Cumberland are provided with electricity by the provincial utility Hydro One rather than by Hydro Ottawa, the city of Ottawa’s hydro utility. He said that Hydro One customers within the city of Ottawa pay more for their electricity than they would if served by Hydro Ottawa. But Mr. Maguire had more to say about Hydro Ottawa than just its expansion to serve all residents of the city. He called for Hydro Ottawa to be run as a not-for-profit corporation rather than as a corporation generating millions in profit which is now the case. Each year Hydro Ottawa turns over these profits to the city of Ottawa but as a

not-for-profit enterprise, these would go to lowering hydro rates for customers. Mr. Maguire was not finished with just these electrifying positions about Hydro Ottawa. He also wants the city to work with the provincial government to allow Ottawa to get off the provincial electrical grid and purchase its power from the province of Quebec, a cheaper alternative. He claimed that between 2002 and now, electricity prices in Ontario have doubled and that rates will continue to rise by 11 percent a year over the next four years. And Mr. Maguire completed his views on electricity by linking it with his solution to the city’s waste management situation, calling for going to high efficiency incineration to handle the city’s garbage rather than facing the eventual $300 million expense of a new dump. He said that such incineration could provide electricity for up to 25,000 homes which would help lower the costs of hydro overall. In addition, incineration of garbage is, in his view, a responsible and sustainable way to deal with garbage. While he dealt with electricity and garbage, he also identified trash as another of

the key issues in his campaign. He said that his first campaign commitment, derived from input received from knocking on doors, is that he would restore weekly garbage collection immediately when he is elected as mayor. Another of the planks in his campaign is to change the current mentality at Ottawa city hall which is geared to spending and borrowing. He said that this is not a sustainable way to run a city and he wants to see a new philosophy at city hall geared to tax relief, not more spending. He said that the city has to live within its means and cannot continue to borrow. Mr. Maguire also wants to see the city use existing railway corridors in the city for transit, specifically commuter trains which he called affordable and reliable. He used the example of having a train station in Richmond where commuters could board such a train and take it to the Lebreton flats area of Ottawa where they could pick up a bus to take them to their ultimate destination. Mr. Maguire was the only mayoralty candidate to attend this candidates question and answer meeting in Richmond. Incumbent mayor Jim Watson

had been invited but declined the invitation on the grounds that the meeting was happening before the municipal election’s Sept. 12 deadline for nominations and he was not participating in municipal candidates meetings prior to that date. Eleven questions from the audience numbering about 90 people were asked in the question and answer portion of the meeting which followed the opening remarks by Mr. Maguire and the other candidates at the meeting – two RideauGoulbourn ward candidates and two school board candidates. A number of the questions focused on how the city was being run in terms of the lack of developing effective business cases for projects and poor processes in management and planning. Mr. Maguire called the delegation of authority to staff at city hall a serious problem, calling for more council involvement. “The culture of silence at city hall has to end,” he said. He said that there is difficulty in getting straight answers to queries about projects, expressing concern about the city’s procurement process. He was also critical of the

city’s planning processes, saying that it now takes about three years for a subdivision approval in the city, compared to about six months for the former city of Kanata.

He said that the city’s existing planning process is broken. “It has to be taken apart and put back together,” he said about this planning process.

Scott Moffatt vs Dan Scharf in Rideau-Goulbourn John Curry john.curry@metroland.com

News - Scott Moffat has been down this road before and he’s taking it again this year. The one-term incumbent city of Ottawa Rideau-Goulbourn ward councillor told those at a municipal candidates question and answer meeting at the Richmond arena hall on Tuesday evening, Sept. 2 that again in this campaign roads are a major part of his platform. Indeed, he told the 90 people at the meeting that roads will always be the number one priority in Rideau-Goulbourn ward as they are the major municipal infrastructure in the ward. “We can’t take our focus off of roads,” he said, noting that whereas only one road in the ward was slated for re-paving when he took over as councillor four years ago, a total of 20 roads have been re-paved in recent years including parts of Mansfield Road, Flewellyn Road and Ottawa Street. He said that there are plans for more road re-surfacing in the future including Huntley Road, Shea Road and Bleeks Road. Mr. Moffatt said that development is the other major issue in Richmond at present, pointing to the success achieved by having developer Caivan Homes reduce a proposed subdivision from 1,000 homes to 750 homes. He contended that growth in Richmond is not bad as it brings with it amenities such as other development like the new Richmond Marketplace Plaza. But he advocates slow growth, saying that “you don’t want to be swallowed” and overrun by development. He said that Richmond saw 26 new homes built in 2013 and he said that this slow growth pattern will remain the reality in villages like Richmond, despite new development proposals. Mr. Moffatt is being opposed in this year’s municipal election which will be held on Monday, Oct. 27, by Dan Scharf who self-identified as “the other guy” in introducing himself at the meeting.

The longtime resident of North Gower who is a specialist in risk management said that he has gotten involved in the campaign because of all of the municipal projects that have gone off the rails, culminating in the Orgaworld contract issue. His campaign is focused on three matters, he said. One is waste management, not only with regard to renegotiating the Orgaworld contract but also in taking a different approach to green initiatives in the rural areas of the city. He argued that green projects should not be applied in a single fashion across the city since the lifestyle is different in the rural areas. He also said that the city needs to find a new way to handle garbage, citing incineration as an example. Mr. Scharf also wants to see a focus on rural economic development in order to provide jobs right in the local communities. He cited the presence of the Rideau River and communities like Richmond which he called a centre of agriculture as examples of the features which the rural area has which can lead to economic development. He also called for more collaboration among the various communities across the RideauGoulbourn ward while also stating that there is a need for a process of systematic communication with the ward councillor’s office. He committed himself to establishing a clear process to handle such communications and to chart their progress through to resolution. Mr. Scharf also wants to see the RideauGoulbourn ward take more of a role in city life, saying that he views the ward as a “jewel” within the city, something that the rest of the city does not seem to realize. A total of 11 questions were asked by members of the public at the meeting, most dealing with concerns about the managing of the city and various projects. Mr. Scharf, in reply to a question, deplored the lack of a management review at city hall and said that a thorough operational review of

city management is needed. Later, in response to another question, he said that not only does the city have to start living within its means with strong financial management but it also has to get rid of bureaucratic processes that slow progress down. He later advocated for using business case practices which are routinely used in the private sector, while ensuring that council gets its questions answered. “Council has to be responsible for asking tough questions,” Mr. Scharf said about coun-

cil’s role. In response to a question, Mr. Moffatt defended the city’s level of development charges, saying that it comes down to a case of growth paying for growth. The development charges pay for projects and improvements caused by growth, not the needs of existing taxpayers, he said. Earlier, Mr. Moffatt said that it would be development charges that will pay for any upgrading of the sewer system to allow new development in Richmond.

‘Come Try Ringette’ session Special to the News

Sports – You still have one more opportunity to try out the sport of ringette. The West Ottawa Ringette Association (WORA) is offering the second of two free “Come Try Ringette” sessions this coming Saturday, Sept. 13 from 5 p.m. to 6 p.m. at the Johnny Leroux Stittsville Community Arena in Stittsville. The first session was held last Saturday at the Goulbourn Recreation Complex. This “Come Try Ringette” session provides an opportunity for any youth ages 4 and up to come out and learn about the game of ringette. All someone needs is a pair of skates, a helmet and a pair of gloves, either winter gloves or hockey gloves. Ringette sticks will be provided and there will be some spare helmets available fur use as well. In addition, there will be on-ice helpers to assist those who attend as they rotate through some on-ice stations as they are introduced to the sport of ringette. And, remember, this is all free of charge. Those thinking of attending are

urged to bring along a friend if they wish and let them give ringette a try as well. Current ringette players are also welcome to attend in the company of a friend who might want to try out the sport. The WORA attracts players from Stittsville, Richmond, Goulbourn, Kanata, West Carleton and North Gower. A range of programs for players of all ages is offered, starting at the age of four with the “Bunnies” program. In this program, youth between the ages of 4 and 7 participate in a learnto-skate program while also learning about the sport of ringette. They do not play regular league games but participate in scrimmages with Bunnies from other ringette associations in the city. The WORA holds its “Bunnies” program on Saturday mornings at the Goulbourn Recreation Complex. The WORA offers both recreational and competitive ringette programs for players from ages 7 to 18. League play runs from early October through to the end of March. The WORA teams play home games at arenas in

Stittsville, Richmond, Kanata, Carp and Kinburn. Away games can take place anywhere from Nepean to Orleans to Gatineau, among other locations. Teams also have the opportunity to participate in tournaments. Ringette is a game where fast skating and great passing are vital and where the focus is on teamwork, both on and off the ice. There are six players on the ice for a team: two forwards, one centre, two defense and one goalie. Players are not permitted to carry the “ring” over the two blue lines. The ringette must be passed to another players over the blue line which is why teamwork is so important in the sport. There is a particular need for goalies for WORA teams, especially between the ages of 10 and 17. For more information about goalies, please contact Cynthia at recreational@westottawaringette.com. More information about the West Ottawa Ringette Association and the sport of ringette can be found at www.westottawaringette.com.

BBQ at Munster United Church on Oct. 4 Special to the News

News - With summer now at its end, prime BBQ season is also coming to a close. Munster United Church in Munster is holding one final BBQ on Saturday, Oct. 4 from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. It will be held in conjunction with a bake sale that will start at 9 a.m. and then run through to

1 p.m. This event allows you not only to savour a season-ending BBQ with someone else doing all of the work cooking over a hot BBQ but also gives you the opportunity to pick up some delicious baked goodies, again with someone else having done the baking. Everyone is welcome to at-

tend this bake sale and BBQ at Munster United Church on Saturday, Oct. 4. Munster United Church is located on Munster Road in the heart of Munster. The current Munster United Church building goes back to 1895 but its heritage can be traced back to the very beginnings of Methodism in the

Goulbourn area in 1823. It was back in 1823 when Ezra Healey was the Methodist preacher who visited the Goulbourn area. The start of the Munster congregation can be traced to this. A first log church for the Munster area was built on property provided by John and Ann Shillington on what is now Copeland Road east of Munster Road. The pioneer Shillington cemetery can still be found along this stretch of Copeland Road. It was in 1849 that John and Ann Shillington deeded property to the trustees of the Wesleyan Methodist Church in Canada. The local trustees, all residents of Goulbourn township, were Andrew Trimble, Sr., James Shillington, Hugh Ross, Thomas Brownlee, James Henderson, William Haskin and Joseph Anderson. The Wallings map of 1863 showing Carleton County shows this Methodist church built beside the cemetery. However, the 1879 Belden’s Atlas for Carleton County shows only the cemetery and not the church.

The 1863 Wallings map also shows a road leading from what is now Franktown Road through the east and west parts of lot 14 and then angling across the high half of lot 13 and the east half of lot 12 of the fifth concession to link up with the fifth line (Copeland Road) at the church and cemetery. It is known that in 1839, Rev. William Bell preached in this Shillington church with at least 80 in attendance. It is also known that on July 12, 1868, members of the Stapledon Loyal Orange Lodge No. 471 walked from the Orange Hall at Stapledon to this fifth line (Shillington) church. As far as the Shillington cemetery goes, the earliest burial there recorded on a gravestone is the death of Jane, wife of Henry Hare in April 1827 at the age of 42. The last burial there is that of Elizabeth, second wife of William Sample, who died on Sept. 14, 1906, at the age of 72. It is believed that following establishment of the Mun-

ster cemetery in 1886, this old Shillington cemetery was eventually unused and was abandoned. In the 1960’s, Goulbourn township was approached to have the cemetery restored. Action was taken to clean up the cemetery area, re-setting the stones, with some being placed in concrete walls. This work was completed in 1968. Belden’s Atlas of 1879 shows a Methodist church at the corner of lot 6, concession 5 of Goulbourn which is in the heart of Munster. It is known that land was purchased to build a church in Munster in 1877 and that a new Methodist brick church was built, costing over $3,000 and completed by 1879. It was this brick church that burned to the ground after its woodwork caught fire from the church stove before a choir practice in January 1894. The loss was pegged at $3,500, with no insurance. But the current Munster United Church was built on the site, opening in January 1895.

TAGGART PARKES Barbara Jane Chapman: FOUNDATION Finding Refuge PROUDLY PRESENTS

Jane woke with a headache. She wasn’t really surprised. After all it was New Year’s Day. But when the headache was still there days later, her doctor suggested she go to emergency. A scan showed she had a brain tumor and surgery confirmed it was brain cancer. She died a little more than two years later.

Jane didn’t die at the hospice. Because beds are scarce other arrangements were made. I felt guilty when Jane died. She was my younger sister so I should have gone first. At the same time I was angry with her. She had promised to share the care of our elderly parents. And my anger made me feel even more guilty. But a counsellor at the hospice helped me to understand that this was part of grieving. Now I can remember her with only sadness and love.

FREE no obligation consultations

Those were difficult years. At times, the day program at the hospice became a refuge where Jane could share her fears with others whose end-of-life was in sight. At others, it was the place she went to escape and paint or watch the butterflies in the garden.

Heather Gallup’s work on ArtSpace Wall John Curry john.curry@metroland.com

News - There’s “Fall Spendour.” And “Rising Mist.” And “Spring Blooms.” And don’t forget “Ontario’s Best,” a little separated from the others but still there for all to see. These are some of the titles of the artwork of artist Heather Gallup which is now on display at the ArtSpace Wall gallery at the Stittsville branch of the Ottawa Public Library. The display will be on exhibit until the end of September. “Fall Spendour” features a collage of leaves while “Rising Mist” is a watercourse scene. “Spring Blooms” features tulips while “Ontario’s Best” depicts trilliums. This exhibition shows nine of the artist’s works along with three other examples of her work in the display case that is beside the ArtSpace Wall gallery. The other works are entitled “Heritage Leaves,” “Nature’s Resonance” which is a winter scene, “Tangled Garden” which is a floral work, “Reflections” which is a landscape work featuring water and hills and “Canadian Maples” which has a vertical focus. These works, all framed and varying in size, are hung across the ArtSpace Wall gallery, with the “Ontario’s Best” work a little off to the side, above a drinking fountain near the gallery. The three smaller works in the display case are a winter scene, a creek scene and a floral work.

Artist Heather Gallup not only is an accomplished artist in her own right but also is an experienced art teacher. She is not only constantly working to improve her own skills and style but as an instructor, she wants to share her painting skills to help others who are just starting in the field or who are persisting in the art. And she is quite forthcoming about the role that art has played in her life as she states in her artist’s statement the following: “Being a watercolour artist has proven to be an integral part of my life. It is who I am.” Heather has been creating art professionally since 1986. She has been a watercolour instructor since 1992, teaching for the city of Ottawa, the Ottawa Carleton Board of Education and privately. She has conducted themed workshops both in studio and en plein air since 1993. Heather has also seen her art exhibited in numerous exhibitions over the years. She also does commission work and consulting. More about her instruction work with the city of Ottawa can be found by going to the city of Ottawa Activity Guide, barcode 924782. This is for art classes beginning on Thursday, Sept. 25 and running for 12 weeks from 12:30 p.m. to 3:30 p.m. at the Eva James Community Centre in Kanata. JOHN CURRY/METROLAND For more information, please contact Heather Artist Heather Gallup stands in front of some of her artwork which is now on display at Gallup at her Almonte Studio at 613-256-9998 the ArtSpace Wall gallery at the Stittsville branch of the Ottawa Public Library. The art will or at her Merrickville Studio at 613-269-2964. be on display until the end of September.

Looking for footwear Special to the News

News - Rev. Michel Dubord of Richmond is not only participating in the 10K event at the upcoming 9RunRun Emergency Services Run in Stittsville on Saturday, Oct. 18 but also he is using the occasion to collect used footwear for the Soles4Souls program. He figures that since he will be at the 9RunRun event, he might as well go there with as many used footwear items as possible since there is going to be a Dymon Storage truck on location there to collect used footwear for Soles4Souls. That’s why he has put out a call to

the Richmond and area community for any used footwear items. He will then take them with him to Stittsville on Saturday, Oct. 18 and deposit them at the collection truck there. Soles4Souls, a Canada-wide program, collects shoes from footwear companies and from individuals which it then distributes free of charge to people in need of footwear around the world. Soles4Souls goal is to collect one million pairs of shoes in every province, an initiative that it calls “The Million Shoe Mission.” Anyone who has used footwear that they wish to donate to Soles-

4Souls simply has to contact Rev. Dubord of St. John’s Anglican Church in Richmond at 613-8386075 to make arrangements. His deadline for receiving footwear donations so that he can drop them off at the Soles4Souls collection truck at the 9RunRun Emergency Services Run in Stittsville on Saturday, Oct. 18 is Friday, Oct. 17. Soles4Souls was founded in 2005 in Nashville. Since its founding, Soles4Souls has given away over seven million pairs of new and gently worn shoes in 125 countries around the world including Haiti, Kenya and Nepal.

‘Messy Church’ on Sept. 28 News - Sunday, Sept. 28 will be “Messy Church” time at St. Paul’s United Church in Richmond. Messy Church time – what is that, you say? Well, Messy Church is meant as an opportunity for those of all ages to have some fun, enjoy a meal and then worship together as a family. It will be happening on Sunday, Sept. 28 from 4 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. Little Ray’s Reptiles, always a hit with both young and those not so young, will be at the event along with

some reptiles, snakes and spiders. This will be followed by supper which will include a gluten free option for those who wish it. Following the supper, there will be an opportunity to celebrate with a time of worship. This Messy Church event is free and open to everyone. For more information, please contact St. Paul’s United Church minister Rev. Carla VanDelen at 613-838-5397.

There will be hay wagon rides pulled by a team of horses thanks to the sponsorship of the Stittsville District Lions Club. The Ottawa Police Service and the Ottawa Fire Services will both have a presence at the event. Strolling around Village Square Park at the event will be a puppeteer, juggler and a balloon lady, all promising lots of entertainment and fun for both young and not so young. The Stittsville United Church will be hosting a BBQ on the site and Stittsville Scouts will be selling corn and hot dogs. So, bring along an appetite when coming to this year’s Villagefest! The Goulbourn Museum and the Goulbourn Township Historical Society will both have displays set up as will the Stittsville District Lions Club whose display will focus on the Lions work with the blind. The Lions will also be collecting used glasses and hearing aids at its display, so bring along any old glasses and hearing aids that you might have and donated them to the Lions who will put them to good use helping others. There will be a silent auction on the go, with great gift certificates up for grabs for the winning bidders. All in all, Villagefest 2014 prom-

ises to be a good way to start off the fall season in the community. There will be lots to see and do and, best of all, you will undoubtedly run into friends and neighbours from the community who you have not seen all summer long. Villagefest is always a great time to catch up on the news with these friends and neighbours.

Motorists should note that Abbott Street between Stittsville Main Street and Carberry Street will be closed to traffic from 12 noon to 4 p.m. due to the Villagefest activities. This year marks the 20th anniversary year for Villagefest. It dates back to 1994 when the then-Goulbourn township council established

a committee to create a yearly event that would attract the attention of residents in the area and encourage them to experience the best of village life and a lot of fun in Stittsville. Sponsorship from local businesses and donations from organizations allow Villagefest to continue year after year.

JOHN CURRY/METROLAND

Richmond Agricultural Society second vice-president Ian Stackhouse stands beside the Society’s 100th anniversary cairn which has been re-pointed this year. The cairn was unveiled in 1944 and commemorates the 100th anniversary of what was then the Carleton County Agricultural Society and what is today the Richmond Agricultural Society.

News - It sits at the front of the Richmond fairgrounds, facing onto Perth Street. It has been there since 1944, erected to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the County of Carleton Agricultural Society which is now known as the Richmond Agricultural Society. The name of the Agricultural Society was changed from the County of Carleton Agricultural Society to the Richmond Agricultural Society in 1973. But lately the rectangular stone cairn had seen better days. The monument was crumbling or at least that is how Richmond Agricultural Society second vice-president Ian Stackhouse describes the situation. He led the charge to repair the cairn with Jason Lindsay engaged to re-point the cairn. There is still some work to be done to repair the top but then the monument should be good for a lot more years. It was in 1944 on the 100th anniversary of the Agricultural Society that provincial cabinet minister the Honourable George Dunbar, a native of Richmond, opened the Fair and dedicated this cairn and an associated flagpole at the front of the fairgrounds. This cairn marking the 100th anniversary of the County of Carleton Agricultural Society, the forerunner of today’s Richmond Agricultural Society, stands near the front of the Dining Hall and is adjacent to the provincial historical plaque which commemorates the Richmond Military Settlement which was founded in 1818. This historical plaque was unveiled on Sept. 21, 1962, just two years before the 100th anniversary year of the Agricultural Society. MP the Hon. R.A. Bell, MPP Erskine Johnston and Richmond reeve J. Edgar Gamble were among those at the plaque unveiling. This repair work on the 100th anniversary monument is just one of the improvements made around the fairgrounds in preparation for this year’s Richmond Fair which is running from Thursday, Sept. 18 to Sunday, Sept. 21. The heavy horse ring has now been enlarged, with more ring added to the north side. In recent years, the heavy horse ring has been coupled up with the adjacent light horse ring for certain classes like the six-horse hitch. There will now be no need to link up these two horse rings as the enlarged heavy horse ring will be able to accommodate all of the heavy horse classes by itself. The expansion of the heavy horse ring has

also brought the entrance gate closer to the barns and has eliminated a runway area where the heavy horse entries had to move through an area where spectators were walking. The expanded ring has been built using old telephone poles as posts, so the expanded area is very sold. An area of bush and brush had grown up over the years inside the fairgrounds fence on the northern edge of the fairgrounds. This brush has now been removed, providing more space for parking or other activities on the grounds. The Richmond Agricultural Society has entered into negotiations allowing the placement of a cell tower on the grounds. This tower will improve cell phone receptions in the Richmond area. Initially the location for this cell tower was proposed as being along the northern property line. However, concerns raised by adjacent landowners brought about a change of location and the new cell tower will be erected in the northwest corner of the fairgrounds. The annual Richmond Fair traces its roots back to 1844 when the County of Carleton Agricultural Society was organized, with the Honourable James Skead as first president. These first fairs or exhibitions were held at Bells Corners, with a fairgrounds having buildings developed over the years. It was doing quite well until the Central Canada Exhibition began at Lansdowne Park in Ottawa in 1888. Attendance at the Bells Corners site dipped, while the Central Canada Exhibition prospered. This brought about a decision to move this county fair from Bells Corners to Richmond to the present-day location which was then known as Goodwood Park, owned by Hugh Rielly of the nearby Rielly House hotel, who rented the Goodwood Park annually for the Fair days. Despite rainy weather, something which would become a tradition regarding the Richmond Fair, this first Fair in Richmond drew a great crowd and its tenure in Richmond looked rosy. But attendance at the Richmond Fair dwindled in the early years of the 20th century, and by 1919, things did not look so good for the Fair, which had become largely a local rather than county attraction. However, the Richmond Fair then became the location for the finals of school fairs from across Carleton County. This brought back the crowds, and by 1927, the Agricultural Society was able to purchase the 17 acre fairgrounds from Hugh Rielly for $2500. In 1962, the Society purchased an adjoining 2.4 acres from Harold Brown for $2,000.

Joining Cadets? Special to the News

News - What do Canadian astronaut Chris Hadfield, Canadian Winter Olympic gold medal biathlete Myriam Bedard and Canadina actor and comedian Jim Carrey have in common? Yes, they are all Canadian – that’s one thing. But in addition, these three successful Canadians, like many others, are all former Cadets. And if you are between the ages of 12 and 15 and would like to follow in their footsteps insofar as participation in Cadets goes, you can do so by joining the 872 Kanata Kiwanis Air Cadet Squadron. This Squadron draws its Cadets from the Stittsville, Kanata and Barrhaven areas. Any youth who like sports, music, outdoor activities, airplanes, making new friends and challenging themselves will find Air Cadets an ideal activity. The 872 Kanata Kiwanis Air Cadet Squadron offers all of these activities and more, such as Toastmasters public speaking, ground school, bush weekends, glider and fly days, a

drill team, band and biathlon. But this is not all. Other activities which 872 Squadron did last year included first aid training, participation in local parades, a sleepover at the Science and Technology Museum and a year-end outing to Chute Coulonge. In addition, every summer many Cadets attend all-expenses paid camps where they learn about survival, music, leadership, aviation and gliding. A few even earn a pilot’s license. Air Cadets like the 872 Kanata Kiwanis Air Cadet Squadron is civilian run and fosters leadership, physical fitness, citizenship and teamwork, working with the assistance of Canadian Forces personnel. 872 Squadron meets at A. Y. Jackson Secondary School on Abbeyhill Drive in Kanata on Wednesdays from 6:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. starting on Wednesday, Sept. 17. Any youth interested in joining can simply drop in to a Wednesday meeting or can check out more information on the website http://872-squadronrcac.ca/ or can phone 613-721-3819.

$50,000 goal for 9RunRun john.curry@metroland.com

News - A goal of $50,000 has been set for this year’s 9RunRun Emergency Services Run in Stittsville. This 9RunRun event is marking its fifth anniversary this year. Funds raised by this year’s event will be supporting the “Is It Just Me?” youth mental health awareness program run by The Royal. So far, over 4,000 students have attended this program but with more funds available, even more students will be able to participate in the program. This year’s 9RunRun Emergency Services Run is taking place on Saturday, Oct. 18. Registration is now open online at www.9runrun.ca. The 9RunRun Emergency Services Run includes a half marathon, a 10K run and a 2K family fun run. This year the half marathon route will remain the same as last year but the route for the 10K run is changing so that there is less impact on local community traffic. The 10K will still begin at the starting line

on Abbott Street west of Stittsville Main Street and will go along Abbott Street and then south on Stittsville Main Street to the northern end of SUBMITTED Elm Crescent. The route will then go west on Corporal Castilla of the 872 Kanata Kiwanis Air Cadet Squadron sits in a glider ready for Elm Crescent and eventually end up on West take off at an 872 Squadron glider day. Ridge Drive where it will end up on the Trans Canada Trail before returning to the finish line on Abbott Street. Another change this year is that while Sacred Heart Catholic High School and Holy Spirit Catholic Church will be used for parking, all other activities related to this 9RunRun event will be held at Village Square Park at the corner of Stittsville Main Street and Abbott Street. In 2014 Awards Show w previous years, these activities have been held at Sacred Heart Catholic High School. These activities will include the Chiefs’ Chili Cook-Off involving chili made by the chiefs of Centrepointe Theatre - 7:00 pm the three emergency services (Police, fire and Tickets: $40 per person paramedic services) as well as entertainment. Organizers are expecting a few more participants than last year’s event, mainly because this is the event’s fifth anniversary year and also because registration has been increasing slightly every year that the event has been held.

League’s Final Weekend Kevin Groulx with 67’s Showdown Tournament Special to the News

Special to the News

Sports - The Greater Ottawa Fastball League is coming to Stittsville for its Final Weekend Showdown Tournament to crown a 2014 league champion. But, alas, the Stittsville 56ers will not be one of the four teams competing in the tournament as the 56ers lost their best-of-five playoff series against the 14C Victory squad in three straight games. The season ended for the 56ers when they lost 52 to 14C Victory on Thursday, Sept. 4. This came on the heels of previous 4-0 and 6-2 losses. The Stittsville 56ers had finished in second place in the regular season of the Greater Ottawa Fastball League while the 14C Victory squad

had finished in seventh place. Despite the absence of the hometown 56ers from the lineup, the Final Weekend Showdown Tournament promises fastball action at its best. Taking part are the winners of the league’s three best-of-five playoff series plus the regular season first place finishers, the Quyon Flyers, who got a bye into the event. The Final Weekend Showdown Tournament will see games played on both this Friday evening, Sept. 12 and this Saturday, Sept. 13. All games will be at the main diamond at Alexander Grove Park. Admission is free so it is a great opportunity to take in top-notch fastball right in Stittsville. There will be a BBQ and a refreshment area will be set up.

Sports - The Ottawa 67’s may have a Stittsville face in the lineup this season. Kevin Groulx, who has starred for the Stittsville Royals (now the Stittsville RAMS) of the Eastern Ontario Junior Hockey League for the past two seasons, played in the 67’s opening pre-season game last Saturday at the Nepean Sportsplex. The 67’s won this game against the Gatineau Olympiques by a 4-3 score. Kevin wore jersey number 39 for the 67’s in this opening pre-season game.

Here’s soccer! Special to the News

Sports - The West Ottawa Soccer Club has opened registration for its fall and winter soccer programs. Monday, Sept. 15 is the early bird deadline for this registration.

Ottawa author coming to Stittsville library Special to the News News - Ottawa author Terrence Rundle West is coming to Stittsville. He will be the special guest when the Stittsville Creative Writing Group celebrates its second anniversary on Thursday, Sept. 25 at the Stittsville branch of the Ottawa Public library in Stittsville. Aspiring writers are invited to hear this author and to meet the members of the Stittsville Creative Writing Group at this event which will run from 6:45 p.m. to 8:15 p.m. Registration to attend the event is required at www.biblioottawalibrary. ca . Author Terrence Rundle West has lived in Ottawa with his wife Peggy since 1968. He worked at various high schools around Ottawa and the area including Hillcrest High School, Brookfield High School, Glebe Collegiate, Sir Wilfrid Laurier Secondary School, Ottawa Tech and Eganville. He has been in-

volved in community work in the Hunt Club/Riverside area of Ottawa. In his writing, he tries to capture the essence of the life and times in which the story is set. His books include “Not In My Father’s Footsteps,� “Run of the Town,� and “Ripe For The Picking.� “Not In My Father’s Footsteps� is set in the 1930’s in Montreal where tensions are running high between the French and the English, the haves and the have-nots and others. People are struggling with the strife and despair of the depression. For protection, they form up in groups, sleep in hobo jungles and challenge strangers. “Run of the Town� covers a twenty year time frame in which 17 short stories take place. R.J. Martin is growing up in Hearst in Northern Ontario, although it could be any of hundreds of similar small communities across Canada. R.J. grows from youth to

manhood observing the life of the community from the apartment over his dad’s hardware store on the main corner of the town. The stories in the book chart his progress through three phases – pre-teen, adolescent and young man. “Ripe For The Picking� is a story about Boston financier Benoit Lefebvre who finds himself playing the role of point-man for a consortium planning a massive raid on Canadian industry. In the book, Quebec is about to win its third referendum and the Canadian economy is in free fall. The consortium feels that Canada is theirs for the picking if they act quickly. “Ripe For The Picking� is about missed chances and charting new courses, about relationships and squaring new realities with old loyalties and about hijacked agendas. The background for this story is a Canada tortured by the debate overlanguage.

Teams zip through 15 dozen cobs of corn john.curry@metroland.com

News - Fifteen dozen cobs of corn. It sounds like a lot but not for six teams of “shuckers” at the Family Day and Corn Roast at St. Paul’s United Church in Richmond last Saturday. In fact, these three-member teams of corn shuckers zipped through all fifteen dozen cobs of corn, forcing the cancellation of a subsequent singles corn shucking competition. In this corn shucking team competition, teams of three were given a total of six minutes (two minutes for each member) to shuck as many cobs of corn as possible. Final tallies ranged from the winning 29 cobs to a low of 20 cobs, still an admirable number. The corn, by the way, was donated for the Family Day and Corn Roast by Shouldice Farms. This corn husking or shucking competition was just one of the activities at this Family Day and Corn Roast which took place from 3 p.m. onwards in the backyard area of the church. Early morning rain had given away to sunny conditions for the event. Other activities include face painting and children’s games. There was a balloon lady on site, making balloon creations. Another highlight of the event was an appearance by magician Chris Pilsworth who over a 20 year career has entertained over a million people including on television. He amazed a crowd of about 50 of all ages with an opening card trick and then a host of magical tricks including such traditional favourites as breaking a rope and putting it back together and sliding steel rings together in various combinations. Following a BBQ and corn roast, the final highlight of the event was a performance by the male choir “The Valley Men” in the church. And what a performance, with a variety of tunes from sacred songs like “Amazing Grace” and “The Lord’s My Shepherd” to novelty tunes like “Big Joe Mufferaw” to traditional favourites like “O Danny Boy” to three Russian folk songs. The performance even included what was called the “world inaugural” presentation of a new musical arrangement of the poem “In Flanders Fields.” It was part of a World War One portion of the performance marking the 100th anniversary of the war which included

a medley of World War One songs such as “It’s A Long Way to Tipperary” and “Pack Up Your Troubles In Your Old Kit Bag” as well as a three-language (German/French/ English) rendition of “Silent Night,” termed “Stille Nacht” on the program. The hour and a half concert saw the audience enjoy the playful “Big Joe Mufferaw” tune made famous by Stompin’ Tom Connors, complete with five stories about Big Joe’s legendary exploits. There was a Gilbert and Sullivan tune, “With Cat-Like Tread” from the Pirates of Penzance as well as other notable songs like “Working Man” which Rita MacNeil sang with the Men of the Deep and “Autumn Leaves,” a piece by famous American songwriter Johnny Mercer. And “We Are The Valley Men,” an entertaining tune composed by the group’s own Phil Glover, was yet another memorable song on the program. “The Valley Men” is a male choir with

20 to 25 members from the Ottawa area that each fall since 1994 has gone on tour, performing mostly in small rural towns. The group is off to the Cambridge/Kitchener/ Beamsville/Hamilton area from this Saturday, Sept. 13 through to Saturday, Sept 20 for this year’s tour on which they will performing much the same program as presented at St. Paul’s United Church in Richmond last Saturday. “The Valley Men” refers to itself as an amateur choir, singing for personal enjoyment and pay their own expenses. It uses its concerts to raise funds for local causes and charities. The group was originally formed in 1994 by George Wallace, its inaugural director, to take a musical message of hope to areas of Newfoundland and Labrador that had been devastated by the closing of the cod fishery. This began the tradition where each year the choir has gone on tour to a particular area which over the years have included Northeastern Ontario, the Eastern Townships of Quebec, the Muskoka region, Prince Edward Island, Cape Breton, Prince Edward County, the Annapolis Valley in Nova Scotia and Eastern Ontario. Keith Bailey is the choirs’ current director, succeeding inaugural director George Wallace in 2003. Sara Surjadinata is the choir’s accompanist. Members of “The Valley Men” are Pat McDougall, Iain McGilveray, Hank Rydzik, Jim Stephenson, George Young and David Brown, first tenors; Ian Howes, John Hulbert, Ron Prince, Russ Graham, Bruce Lodge, Vernon Sulway and Paul Siraco, second tenors; Keith Bailey, Fraser Cumming, Les Dreger, Jim Gardner and Phil Glover, baritones; and David Hughes, Bill McGee, Jack Barker, Harry Qualman and Denis Watson, basses. David Brown and Phil Glover both accompany the choir on guitar for certain tunes. The Family Day and Corn Roast at St. Paul’s United Church in Richmond was made possible in part thanks to the generosity of a number of businesses and individuals including Tercon Heating & Air Conditioning (Terry and Connie Steele), Southpaw Yard Maintenance (Brent and Jarit Brown), Shouldice Farms (Larry and Shari Shouldice), Stewart and Edna Crabb, the Richmond firefighters of the Ottawa Fire Services and two anonymous donors.

A total of 24 players participated in the tournament, representing the Kingston, Galetta, Nepean, Deep River and Highland Park lawn bowling clubs. It was Wayne’s idea to host such an Australian rules tournament. These rules call for the skip and lead of each team to reverse their roles at the beginning of each end. This reversal of roles in each end provided different challenges to each of the participants.

Rock band Glass Tiger playing at Richmond Fair John Curry john.curry@metroland.com

News - Canadian rock band Glass Tiger will be headlining the Friday night entertainment at the Richmond Fair this year. Glass Tiger, formed in 1983, has had several hit singles in Canada. Two of its songs from its debut album “The Thin Red Line” in 1986 placed on Billboard magazine’s top ten, namely “Don’t Forget Me (When I’m Gone)” and “Someday.” Glass Tiger won three Juno Awards in 1986 and two more in 1987. The band disbanded in 1993 and then reformed and began touring again in 2003. In 2009, Glass Tiger visited the Canadian Forces stationed in Kandahar in Afghanistan. Glass Tiger will be performing on stage in the Richmond arena at the Richmond Fair on Friday, Sept. 19 at 10:30 p.m. The warmup band for Glass Tiger will be the local band Sidewinder which will take to the stage at 9 p.m. There is always a big crowd for these Friday night performances in the arena at Fair time because the ever-popular Demolition Derby takes place earlier in the evening.

These performances by Glass Tiger and Sidewinder are just two of a host of musical presentations at this year’s Richmond Fair. At 6 p.m. on Thursday, Sept. 18 in the Bavarian Garden tent at the Fair, the Dani Nash Band will be performing. On Saturday, Sept. 20, there will be lots of entertainment on the grounds. Gord Barnes & Laredo and McMunn Music will be performing in the arena from 1 p.m. through to 5 p.m. At 6 p.m. on Saturday, Sept. 20, the Olivia Charett Band will perform on the outdoor stage.

Cuban music flows in Gaia Java shop John Curry john.curry@metroland.com

News - The Gaia Java coffee shop went Cuban on Wednesday evening, Sept. 3. No, it was not the coffee offerings at the shop taking on a Cuban flavour but rather the music that filled the shop was the product of two members of the Cuban band “Kereya” which is the popular house band at the Covarrubins resort in Porto Padre in Cuba. The two musicians are in Canada on a cultural exchange, exposing Canadians to Cuban music while also learning about Canadian culture themselves. One of the musicians performing at the Gaia Java shop was Omar Sicilia who is the leader, founder and songwriter for “Kereya.” Indeed, many of the songs which he and his fellow musician, violinist Julio Cesar, presented were written by Omar. And while the songs were all in Spanish, the infectious joy of Omar and Julio as they performed and the stirring tempos of the songs – some gentle, some rousing, some caressing, some loud – broke down any language barriers. Indeed, their performance showed that music with its beats and rhythms has an appeal that is universal and that goes beyond the language used. It also helped that the band “Kereya” is JOHN CURRY/METROLAND Paul Jay, centre, standing, of the Gaia Java Coffee Company shop in Stittsville is with known in the Las Tunas province of Cuba as two musicians from the Cuban band “Kereya” who performed at the shop on Wednesday the area’s most outstanding and popular group, evening, Sept. 3, violinist Julio Cesar, left, and guitarist/singer Omar Sicilia, right. The headlining at festivals and in concerts. In other words, the band is good. Cuban flag is hanging behind the group.

Omar Sicilia sang and accompanied himself on the guitar at the Gaia Java shop while Julio Cesar played the violin, chipped in with some backup vocals (while still playing the violin) and for some songs put down his violin and provided rhythmic accompaniment playing a pair of wooden sticks. The pair played in front of a Cuban flag which hung on the inside of the front window of the coffee shop. Their offerings ranged from songs with a rock ‘n roll beat to slow romantic tunes to livelier up-tempo songs, all translating flawlessly to the audience even though the lyrics were in Spanish. There was a bluegrass tinge to one song while another was a Mexican song that is popular in Cuba while yet another tune had a Greek-like dance beat to it. These two musicians – Omar and Julio – are here in Canada and, indeed, Stittsville, thanks to the efforts of Bob Denney, a Stittsville resident who is a retired music teacher. Bob and his wife travelled to Cuba for a holiday a year ago last March where they heard the band “Kereya” at their resort. They enjoyed the band so much that they heard it perform four times in a week. They returned to Cuba a year ago August where they established contact with the band which eventually led Omar and Julio to come to Canada on this current cultural exchange trip. Mr. Denney says that he took it one step at a time in arranging for the cultural exchange, submitting the required paperwork. See CUBAN DUO, page 43

Cuban duo Continued from page 41

0904.R0012873375

The exchange was to happen at the beginning of July but some delays pushed it back to this September and October. The exchange is meant to present Cuban culture and music to Canadians while Omar and Julio and their band manager Virginia Alfonso who is with them learn about Canadina culture. Mr. Denney, with whom these Cuban musicians are staying, hopes that this initial exchange will lead to a future exchange in which all of the Kereya band members can participate. He hopes that this exchange will grow the band’s fan base and bring about a future exchange in which the band can share its music with Canadians. He has arranged for Omar and Julio to perform not only at the Gaia Java coffee shop but also at venues in Owen Sound, Kemptville and Montreal. In addition, the pair will be conducting all day workshops at a high school in Orillia and will be performing at the upcoming Ottawa Folk Festival. The band “Kereya” plays a Trova style of music. This is a Cuban music style characterized by the travelling singer/ songwriter tradition that is found around the world. Trovadores usually accompany themselves on the guitar. They are usually known for their strong poetic lyrics dealing with personal and social issues. The Gaia Java Coffee Company shop at the Stittsville Shopping Centre (Shoppers Drug Mart Plaza) on Stittsville Main Street in Stittsville holds music evenings every Friday at 7 p.m. and sometimes on Wednesday evenings JOHN CURRY/METROLAND such as happened with this appearance by Omar and JuAt the Gaia Java Coffee Company shop in Stittsville are, from left, Julio Cesar, violinist with the Cuban band “Kereya,” Virginia lio.

‘It’s A Wonderful Life’ art exhibition John Curry john.curry@metroland.com

OC 12 CU 0 D PA AY NC Y

News - “It’s A Wonderful Life” has come to Stittsville. No, not the 1946 film that is now is considered one of the most loved films of all time and has become traditional viewing during the Christmas season with the antics of George Bailey and his guardian angel (second class) Clarence Odbody, but a new art exhibition at the Ottawa West Arts Association (owaa) gallery in the foyer of the Goulbourn Recreation Complex (GRC) on Shea Road in Stittsville. And just like the film where George Bailey (James Stewart) does not realize all that he has added to the lives of others, this art exhibition carries with it the same message, namely that there’s lots of beauty and scenery in the world which perhaps we don’t always appreciate or recall. But these artists who have entered their artwork in this exhibition at the owaa gallery are like guardian angel Clarence Odbody – they remind us of the beauty which abounds around us, if only we would look and admire it. Yes, indeed, “It’s A Wonderful Life” in this world of ours if we just take the time to appreciate it. And one place that this can be done now is at this “It’s A Wonderful Life” art exhibition at the owaa gallery where each piece of art transports you in some way to a slice of life’s beauty.

You have Alain Bernard’s oil painting “Downtown in July” which depicts the beauty of a tree lined pedestrian promenade with people sitting along the shade splattered walkway. And the beauty of character shows through in Louise Barker’s oil painting “Coming Home” which shows a man with a cane and bundles over his shoulder approaching a dog at the corner of a building. You feel the man’s burden while noting the dog’s anticipation. “Andrea by the Adriatic,” an oil painting on canvas by Gerald Smith who is noted for his giant portraits, does reveal his portrait style but it is something more, with the sea and beach in the background. The joy of living jumps from Sonia Tavares’ acrylic painting “Street Dancers,” which is filled with numerous figures doing handstands and other dance moves. Fishing is a popular pastime and two paintings in this exhibition portray this “wonderful” sport. “Gone Fishing,” an oil painting by Elizabeth (Betty) Sullivan, shows a person fishing on a rock outcropping with the surf pounding around him. Michael Goguen’s oil painting “At The Wharf” portrays a person sitting on a dock with a fishing pole and with a dog beside him, with a yellow cottage nearby, along with a boat. The background is typical Goguen, with massive detail, not of a castle or elaborate building as in many of his works but with a church and water-

blue with a stunning use of the blue and pink making it a real show stopper. And so this exhibition, “It’s A Wonderful Life,” goes on and on, all showing some of life’s beauty and wonder – yes, indeed, it is a “Wonderful Life” in this world of paintings at the owaa gallery. “Garden Gates,” a mixed media work by Soraya Silvestri “Zizi,” shows the beauty of the colours of green and yellow, especially when presented in a textured format. Elizabeth (Betty) Sullivan’s mixed media work “Visages” features a number of green, blue and yellow vertical lines. Trudy Daley’s acrylic painting “The Garden Path” shows a stone pathway along with flowers and a wooden garden gate. Indeed, the painting could just as well have been entitled “Garden Gate” given the gate’s alluring appeal. New owaa member Josie Walsh’s artwork “Back in Time” is a mixed media work that is a collage of photographs with an overall brown appearance. Yes, brown can be beautiful as this shows. An oil painting by Aud Karin Sund, “Blue Vase Phantasia,” depicts a vase holding an assortment of flowers with a yellow/green background. A smaller work by Trudy Daley, a mixed media piece entitled “Tulips,” shows red tulips with some associated greenery. See NEW EXHIBITION, page 51

front industrial buildings. There is so much beauty in nature – no wonder it can be a “wonderful life.” Beverly Lafortune’s photograph entitled “A New Dawn” shows a setting sun with clouds, water and a beach, with silhouettes of people walking along the beach. Wouldn’t we all like to be in such a scene! Sheila Turner-Whalen’s “Fall Foliage #2,” an acrylic painting, shows the beauty of the autumn with trees in fall colours in front of a water background, with the foreground a mat of golden, welcoming the viewer into the scene. It is not a warm view but Charles Rogers’ photograph “Frosty Morning” does have its own stark beauty as it shows a white frost on the branches of a tree, silhouetted against the sky. “York Harbour Sunrise,” a photograph by John Edkins, is another example of an idyllic water scene, complete with sunrise and a walkway down to a beach area. And Charles Rogers’ photograph “Pike’s Lake” captures the beauty of a mirror-like lake, being viewed by a person in silhouette. The beauty of nature can be found for sure in Roseanne Facchin’s acrylic painting entitled “Cardinal,” with a bright red Cardinal perched on a tree branch. There surely can be nothing so majestic and eye-catching as this although Kat McClure’s “Bird of Paradise,” another acrylic painting, might give it a run for its money as this vertical work features pink, yellow and

News - And the results are in…! Sonia Tavares’ acrylic “Interlaced 2” grabbed people’s attention in the recently completed “On The Water” exhibition at the Ottawa West Arts Association (owaa) gallery in the foyer of the Goulbourn Recreation Complex in Stittsville. Indeed, this colourful painting garnered the most votes in the People’s Choice balloting associated with the exhibition. “Interlaced 2” is a large painting featuring not only many colours such as orange, purple, green, yellow and grey but also featuring numerous interwoven shapes like circles, ribbon-like strands and a ropelike feature. There was a tie for second place in the People’s Choice voting for this “On The Water” exhibition which was in place at the owaa gallery from July through to the beginning of September. The tie was between Michael Goguen’s “The Gnome” and Mark Grasza’s “Aeroplanes in Action.”

Michael Goguen’s oil painting “The Gnome” features a gnome-like character cooking hot dogs on an open fire with a castle-like building in the background and a castle in the far distance. Mark Grasza’s oil painting “Aeroplanes in Action” shows a ship at sea being overflown by two British planes. Third place in the People’s Choice voting in this “On The Water” exhibition was another tie involving Aud Karin Sund’s “High Tide” and Sheila Turner-Whalen’s “Resting.” “High Tide,” an oil painting by Aud Karin Sund, has a horizontal focus in its depiction of watery blue waves. Sheila Turner-Whalen’s “Resting” is an acrylic that shows a couple of pleasure sailboats at an idyllic watery mooring. This “On The Water” exhibition has now given way to another owaa exhibition, called “It’s A Wonderful Life.” This new exhibition will be on display at the owaa gallery at the Goulbourn Recreation Complex on Shea Road in

Stittsville through to Friday, Nov. 7. Those who do view this new exhibition in the coming weeks are reminded to fill out a People’s Choice ballot individuating your favourite work in the exhibition. At the end of the exhibition’s run, these ballots will be tallied up and winners declared. Ballots also have a space where a person can indicate the reasons for liking a particular work. The artists involved enjoying receiving this feedback and topping the People’s Choice balloting is considered quite an honour by the owaa artists. Ballots for the People’s Choice voting can be found on the top of the large glass display case at the owaa gallery. Just fill a ballot out and drop it into the ballot box on top of the display case. The owaa gallery at the Goulbourn Recreation Complex (GRC) is open seven days a week from 7 a.m. to 9 p.m., the same hours as the GRC itself.


New exhibition at GRC Continued from page 50

An acrylic painting by Vera Van Baaren called “Blue Moon” shows flowers with a green/blue sky while Sheila Turner-Whalen’s fluid acrylic work “Image” is a macro view of a red floral scene. Louise Barker’s oil painting “Twisted Cottonwoods” shows that there is beauty even in something non-symmetrical like a gnarled tree with its yellow, red and green foliage. Beauty can also be found in nature’s roughness as depicted in Sylvie Sabourin’s photograph of a jagged rock outcropping called “Rock Face.” A fascinating photograph is GorJOHN CURRY/METROLAND Artist Josie Walsh holds her mixed media painting entitled“Back In Time” don Chapman’s “Let Me Take You which is on display now in the new “It’s A Wonderful Life” exhibition Higher,” a photo of a maze of scafat the Ottawa West Arts Association (owaa) gallery in the foyer of the folding with a number of workers

staggered throughout it. Water is never far from view in this exhibition. Mark Grasza’s oil painting “Ottawa Canal In the Summer” shows two at the windshield of a motorboat on the Big Rideau Lake which is part of the Rideau Canal system. Salena Richard’s acrylic work “The View from Taunte Rachel’s House” shows a water setting with shoreline in the foreground and background and with a girl in red sitting on the closest shoreline, looking out. John Edkins’ photograph “Relax” shows chairs and an umbrella on a beach, beside a widespread tree. Life gets no more wonderful than if you were sitting in one of these chairs. It would indeed by a “wonderful life” at that point in time. Perhaps the most alluring work in this exhibition is Josie Walsh’s “But-

terfly View,” a mixed media work that gives the view of a woodland area as seen by a butterfly with its wings spread out. This exhibition “It’s A Wonderful Life” will be on display at the owaa gallery at the Goulbourn Recreation Complex through until Friday, Nov. 7. And when you do view this exhibition, take a moment and fill out a ballot in the People’s Choice voting. This allows viewers to indicate a favourite piece in the show. These ballots are tallied up at the conclusion of the exhibition and the results show which pieces were the favourites of the viewers. The artists involved in the exhibitions at the owaa gallery love to receive this feedback and the People’s Choice verdict is always held in high esteem by the artists.

Goulbourn Recreation Complex on Shea Road in Stittsville.

Two works by Josie Walsh LET US HELP , in new owaa exhibition John Curry john.curry@metroland.com

News - Although a member of several other artists’ groups, Josie Walsh only joined the Ottawa West Arts Association (owaa) last Friday. But on Saturday, two of her works were included in the new exhibition at the owaa gallery at the Goulbourn Recreation Complex on Shea Road in Stittsville. One, entitled “Back In Time,” is an 18 inch by 20 inch mixed media work that features a collage of photographs from various periods in time. The other is an intriguing eight by eight inch mixed media piece called “Butterfly View” which portrays a butterfly’s eye view of a landscape. Both of these works by Josie Walsh are among those in the “It’s A Wonderful Life” exhibition which will be on display at the owaa gallery in the foyer of the Goulbourn Recreation Complex until Friday, Nov. 7. Josie Walsh, who has been painting since 2006, works in watercolours,

acrylics, oils and mixed media, with florals and landscapes among her favourite subjects. She also, though, enjoys doing scenes with boats and water, a remnant from the time that she spent living in Prince Edward Island. She now lives in Arnprior. Josie also is an encaustic mixed media artist, an art form which involves painting with hot wax. It is a longstanding art form with the technique used as far back as in mummy portraits in Egypt around 300 AD. It is not a widely used art technique today but Josie enjoys doing it, finding it a new and different way to create art. She has taken courses in encaustic painting. Josie belongs now not only to the owaa but also art clubs in Kanata and West Carleton as well as the Ottawa mixed media group. She has shown her work at various locations in the area. She really enjoys all of the wonderful people that she meets along the way in her art career, both fellow artists and clients.

St. Stephen. Tia had been on a tour of Sacred Heart last spring but found that the BBQ event held at Sacred Heart for new students in the last week of August was more helpful as it provided an opportunity for new students like herself to walk around the building and to determine where their lockers and their classrooms were. All in all, Tia has found that she has liked her first days at Sacred Heart and is looking forward to an exciting first year as a student there.

59 BECKWITH STREET NORTH R0012888614_0911

News - Lots of new situations faced 12 year old Tia Cristiano as she began the new school year last week. The former St. Stephen Catholic School student in Stittsville was entering grade seven at her new school, Sacred Heart Catholic High School and with this transition came a number of changes. Of course, one obvious change is that Sacred Heart is a lot bigger with a lot more students attending than was the case at St. Stephen which she had attended since grade three. She admits that she was surprised by the number of people in the cafeteria at Sacred Heart at lunch time, expecting that everyone would be a little more spread out than is the case. But she likes the cafeteria format, saying that it is better than sitting at a school desk eating lunch which was the case in elementary school. In the cafeteria setting, she is now able to sit and hang out with her friends during lunch time. Tia now has a number of teachers for different subjects, not just the two teachers (English and French) which she had in elementary school. But she has found that all of the teachers are friendly and helpful. Bussing to school is now a new experience for Tia since she used to walk to St. Stephen School. She likes taking the bus, saying that it gives her an opportunity to sit and relax before starting her day at school. She also likes having a locker rather than the smaller bin that is used in elementary school. The locker gives her more space.

Tia is excited that she can sign up for volleyball and ultimate frisbee and intends to try out for other sports when they come up. She is an avid basketball player, now entering her fourth year playing community basketball. She will be trying out for the Goulbourn competitive team this year. She has attended basketball camps and describes herself as a “pretty good basketball player,” probably best in the defensive zone but also pretty good offensively. Indeed, her long term goal is eventually to play women’s professional basketball.

At Richmond Legion - Fair parade, darts, BBQ Special to the News

Members of the Richmond Legion will once again be leading off the Richmond Fair parade and the Legion is looking for people in uniform to march with its members. Any past or current members of the military are welcome to join in with the Legion for this parade. There will also be two or three military vehicles to transport Legion members who are unable to walk the parade route. Anyone who wants to join in with this Legion presence in the parade should be on the grounds at South Carleton High School by 10:30 a.m. on Saturday, Sept. 20, the day of the parade. Darts will be returning to the Richmond Legion on Friday nights this fall. Registration will take place on Friday, Sept. 26 from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. and again on Friday, oct. 3 from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. Regular season play will begin on Friday, Oct. 10 at 8 p.m. The registration fee remains at $100 for the season. It is hoped that at least 30 people will sign up again this year and there is always a need for spares. Spares who pay a $20 registration fee get first crack at filling in when needed.

Grilled brunch burritos Special to the News

Lifestyle - This makes a fun meal to serve outside because the foil keeps them warm until serving and catches any drips. Try them over the campfire or barbecue. Vary the heat in the sauce to taste and for a vegetarian version, omit the chorizo. Preparation time: 40 minutes. Cooking time: 10 to 12 minutes. Serves four. Ingredients * 4 eggs * 15 ml (1 tbsp) milk * 5 ml (1 tsp) each chili powder and ground cumin * 1 ml (1/4 tsp) salt * 125 ml (1/2 cup) diced sweet red pepper * 75 ml (1/3 cup) diced mild or hot smoked chorizo sausage * 15 ml (1 tbsp) butter * 25 ml (2 tbsp) each light sour cream and light mayonnaise * 15 ml (1 tbsp) fresh lime juice * Hot sauce (optional) * 4 23-centimetre (9-inch) whole wheat tortillas, warmed * 12 grape or cherry tomatoes, halved * 2 green onions, sliced * 125 ml (1/2 cup) chopped fresh coriander * 1 l (4 cups) baby spinach leaves

Preparation In a medium bowl, beat together the eggs, milk, chili powder, cumin and salt until blended. Stir in the red pepper and chorizo. In a medium skillet over medium heat, melt the butter, and cook the egg mixture, stirring occasionally, until it’s set but still moist. In a small bowl, mix together the sour cream, mayonnaise, lime juice and hot sauce (if using) until smooth. Spoon one-quarter of the egg mixture down the centre of each tortilla, leaving about a 2.5centimetre (1-inch) border at the edge. Arrange the tomatoes, onions and coriander on the egg mixture. Drizzle the sour cream mixture over the filling and pile the spinach on top. Fold over the sides and ends, tucking in the spinach and roll up. Wrap each tortilla snugly in a 23-centimetre (9-inch) piece of foil and seal the ends. Heat a panini grill on medium-high heat and grill the burritos for five to seven minutes or until grill marks appear on the tortilla, opening the foil to check. Let cool for a couple of minutes and slice in half diagonally right through foil. NOTE: If a panini grill is not available, heat a heavy skillet on medium-high heat. Place the burritos in the skillet and press down with a heavy saucepan. Cook for two to three minutes on each side or until the tortillas are lightly browned.

Dog ‘pooping’ and biting threatens fairgrounds’ use Special to the News

News - Richmond residents have a great asset right in the centre of the community – the Richmond fairgrounds. This is, of course, the home of the annual Richmond Fair but it is also in use at other times of the year for horse shows, dog shows, community events and other happenings. But the fairgrounds is also open throughout the year and is really like a giant central park for Richmond residents, particularly in the non-winter months. People can stroll through the fairgrounds. This is especially true of dog walkers who are frequently seen walking together on the fairgrounds. The Richmond Agricultural Society, which owns the fairgrounds (it is not public city property despite the presence of the Richmond arena on one corner of the site), has no problem with people walking around the property including dog walkers. But lately a problem has developed. In fact, it is a dual barreled problem. Some dog walkers are not cleaning up after their dogs. Dog poop has become a major problem and the Agricultural Society is concerned about this lack of respect and just plain responsible dog ownership by some dog owners. In addition, there are also situations in which people have been bitten by dogs on the fairgrounds. The Agricultural Society is also very concerned about this. So, the Agricultural Society does not want to and is not contemplating banning dogs from the fairgrounds. It wants people to enjoy walking their dogs there. But it is asking that dog walkers have their dogs on a leash when on the fairgrounds. This

should help in that the dog owners will then be fully aware of when the dog is “pooping” and will be able to clean up the “poop” right away. In addition, it should help eliminating any biting as the dog will be under control of its owner. The Richmond fairgrounds is a gem right in the middle of the community. The Richmond Agricultural Society acknowledges that many dog owners are responsible and do clean up after their dogs and do not allow them to run uncontrolled around the fairgrounds, possibly biting others. But there’s lots of dog “poop” being found all the time on the fairgrounds and there are reports of people being bitten by dogs there. So some dog owners are abusing this situation and in so doing are putting at risk the use of these fairgrounds for all dog walkers. Indeed, the Agricultural Society is so concerned that if this appeal to dog walkers does not improve the situation, more radical steps may have to be taken, even going so far as the fencing of the whole property and locking it up when not in rental use. This is being considered a major problem and the Agricultural Society is asking all dog owners to please be responsible dog walkers when using the fairgrounds. The Agricultural Society wants the fairgrounds to be there and available for all to use and to enjoy. But the actions of some irresponsible dog walkers are putting this wonderful asset at risk for all dog owners. The Agricultural Society is hoping that this plea to dog walkers to pick up after their dogs and to keep them on a leash and under control while on the fairgrounds will be sufficient to improve the situation.

Open Table dinner has been moved up Special to the News

News - It’s still great food served in a friendly atmosphere. It’s still absolutely free to anyone who attends. And it’s still happening every month. The only difference from what has gone on in the past is that the regular monthly Open Table community dinner at St. Thomas Anglican Church in Stittsville is now going to be held on the second Saturday of the month instead of on the third Saturday as has been the case. This free Open Table community dinner had to be held on the second Saturday of the month sometimes during the last year and it seemed to work out well. So it has been decided to change

the dinner to the second Saturday of the month all the time. The Open Table community dinner for September will be held this Saturday, Sept. 13 with the doors opening at 4:30 p.m. and the meal served at 5 p.m. While these Open Table community dinners are free and open to everyone in the community, there is a donation box available for anyone who wishes to help contribute to the cost of these meals. St. Thomas Anglican Church is located at the corner of Stittsville Main Street and Carleton Cathcart Street in Stittsville. There is plenty of parking available for those who attend.

Family Fun Day at Chapel Ridge Church Got Events? Special to the News

News - It’s a Family Fun Day and it’s free! Yes, that’s right - a time of fun activities such as a bounce castle and everyone is welcome to attend. Chapel Ridge Free Methodist Church on Flewellyn Road east of Shea Road is holding this free Family Fun Day this Sunday, Sept. 14 from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Little Ray’s Reptiles, which is always a hit, will be on hand to show a number of exotic snakes and other reptiles. There will be lots of fun activities to enjoy, with food and music.

News - Sunflowers are spectacular flowers – tall and showy with their yellow flower heads. And famous Dutch painter Vincent van Gogh certainly saw the beauty in sunflowers as he did paintings of sunflowers including his renowned 1888 oil on canvas titled “Sunflowers” which is now in the National Gallery in London. So, sunflowers are well known, much admired flowers and you can hear all about them at the upcoming September meeting of the Stittsville Goulbourn Horticultural Society when Dale Horeczy of Krickle-

wood Farm is the guest speaker, talking on the topic “Sunflowers.” Kricklewood Farm is located at Frankville which is in Leeds and Grenville County in the Brockville area. It is known for its sunflowers as well as its goats, so it is bound to be an informative and interesting presentation by Dale Horeczy. This year’s sunflower crop at Kricklewood Farm has been late in coming and is not as abundant as in other years due to the late spring and a chilly and rainy summer. Kricklewood Farm has a silo in which to store its sunflower seeds before pressing them to create sunflower oil which is commonly used in food as a frying oil and in cosmetic formulations as an emollient.

MARY COOK Hide and go seek - An added Mary Cook’s Memories fair feature

THE CANADIAN TIRE SNOWSUIT FUND

Lifestyle - Our Montreal cousins were with us that year at Renfrew Fair time, and Terry the youngest would have been no trouble at the Fair , but the eldest, Ronny, was another matter all together. But Mother thought a face to face talk with Ronny before the old model T left the barn yard would be sufficient to insure his best behaviour. She didn’t have to go over the ground rules with the rest of us. We knew Mother’s ground rules for the Renfrew Fair by heart: stay together, no squabbling, don’t sit on the seat in the outdoor privy, and once our quarter was gone, there was no more money to squander. Ronny said he understood perfectly. The Renfrew Fair was just about the most exciting place to be on a fall day. My three brothers were usually flat broke in less than an hour. Whereas my sister Audrey and I took ages to make up our minds how we wanted to spend our quarters. We had gone to the fair early Saturday evening that year. It wasn’t the best time to go, because organizers usually started to dismantle everything by nine o’clock. However, the side benefit was that often we got rides at a discount price because it was the final night.

As usual, we cruised the entire fair as soon as we arrived, with specific orders from Mother, since we were there at night time, to stay together and meet back at the ticket booth by nine o’clock. Ronny, for a change, seemed to be on his best behaviour. Finally, the boys had spent every cent of their allowance. I still had a nickel tied in the corner of my hanky. We always saved the exhibition hall for last. Audrey and I loved to see the handiwork and see who had won prizes. The boys hated the hall, but Mother’s instructions left no doubt in anyone’s mind that we all stayed together. So it was five reluctant boys who shuffled into the hall that night to look at the displays of quilts, baking, grain, vegetables, and corn stalks tied together in great tall bundles. Ronny promised if we let him wander the hall, he would not leave the building. Audrey was too engrossed in the needle work to argue. We must have spent a good hour before we realized Ronny was nowhere to be found. We skirted the displays several times, to no avail. Perhaps he had gone out to the ticket gate. Everett, being the oldest, was dispatched immediately. When he got back, Mother was stern faced and walking quickly beside him. Ronny

was not with them. We started to get panicky when we saw the fair board beginning to dismantle the displays in the hall. Audrey and I were posted at the door just in case he had wandered out and would come back to look for us. The hall was emptying quickly. Mother’s look of anger was fast turning to a look of panic. We had been looking for Ronny for an hour. I was convinced he had been hauled off by one of the carnival workers. The hall was almost stripped. Everyone but the workers had gone home. All that was left were the grain displays and the tall stalks of corn tied into bundles and standing along one wall. A few farmers were moving into position to take away even those last remnants of the Renfrew Fair. Mother thought she should go and look for

His tall lanky son reached for the third. When he lifted it from the wall, there was Ronny sitting behind the corn stalks looking out at us with sheer delight and devilment written all over his face. Mother was so mad she swung her purse at him and caught the farmer square on the side of his head. He recovered quickly, and made a grab for the young villain. But Mother beat him to it.

Finally Ronny looked Mother square in the eye and said, “I don’t know why everyone is so mad. I wasn’t lost. I knew where I was all the time.”
