on sale at the Stittsville Seniors Community (Villa) on Stittsville Main Street in Stittsville last Friday, Sept. 23. It was the occasion of its fifth annual “Celebrating Memories Bake Sale” in support of the Alzheimer’s Society. A total of $923 was raised for the Alzheimer’s Society in the sale which ran from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. A table featuring a white table cloth and adorned with balloons and flowers was set up in the lounge area of the Stittsville Seniors Community to display all of the baked goods which were provided by residents, their family members, community members and staff. And what an assortment of baked goods were offered in this bake sale! There were cookies, squares, a cherry pie, a Bailey’s chocolate cheesecake, lemon squares, ginger sparklers, oatmeal chocolate chip coconut muffins, carrot cake, date squares, chocolate peanut butter cookies, jam tarts, pumpkin cake with cream cheese icing, apple almond rum cake and more. There was something for every tastebud! This bake sale fundraiser at the Stittsville Seniors Community in support of the local Alzheimer’s
Society was held near World Alzheimer’s Day which was Sept. 21. The Alzheimer’s Society is supported because Alzheimer’s Disease and other forms of dementia touch the lives of many of those served by the Stittsville Seniors Community. September is World Alzheimer’s Month with Sept. 21 earmarked as World Alzheimer’s Day. It is estimated that 135 million people around the world will be living with dementia by the year 2030. Alzheimer’s Disease itself is a chronic neurodegenerative disease that usually starts slowly and gets worse over time. The most common early symptom is difficulty in remembering recent events i.e. short term memory loss. As the disease advances, symptoms can include problems with language, disorientation, mood swings, loss of motivation and behavioural issues. Although the speed of progression of Alzheimer’s Disease can vary, the average life expectancy following diagnosis is three to nine years. The cause of Alzheimer’s Disease is not known. About 70 percent of the risk is believed to be genetic but other risk factors include a history of head injuries, depression and hy-
pertension. As yet, no treatments stop or reverse the disease. In 2015, there were about 48 million people around the world affected with Alzheimer’s Disease. It
most often begins in those over 65 years of age. Alzheimer’s Disease was first described by and later named after German psychiatrist and pathologist Alois Alzheimer in 1906.

Yakstrong 5K run/walk on Sunday, Oct. 2 John Curry john.curry@metroland.com
You can participate in a 5K run/walk this Sunday, Oct. 2 to support Stittsville resident Mark Yakabuski and his family. Mark suffered a spinal cord injury in a golf cart accident on Saturday, May 21. He is expected to leave the rehab facility in October to return home to Stittsville to his family and friends. This 5K run/walk is being held this Sunday, Oct. 2 with the route going through the Kanata North Tech Park. The starting location will be at the KRP Community Hub near Legget Drive and Solandt Road just off March Road in Kanata. Check in will start at 8 a.m. with a warm up and words of welcome at 9:45 a.m., followed by the 5K run, with runners hitting trhe course at 10 a.m., followed by slower runners and walkers at 10:10 a.m. Following the run, there will be a BBQ, face painting, a bouncer for kids and music until 1 p.m. This is being planned as an event for those of all ages – families, adults, children and teams. Everyone is welcome to participate. Registration fees are $15 for those 13 years and under, $40 for those 14 years and older and $15 per team member for sports teams or groups of ten or more. All those who register will receive a limited edition 2016 Run Yakstrong t-shirt. Donations will also be collected at the event with all funds raised going directly to
the Yakstrong fundraising efforts. You can register or make a donation by visiting www.yakstrong.com. Yakstrong was created as a symbol of support for Mark and his family as they deal with this difficult situation in their lives. A logo featuring two crossed hockey sticks and the wording “YAK Strong” has been developed as it reflects Mark’s passion for the game of hockey, both as a player and as a coach. Funds are going to be continued to be raised through www.yakstrong.com via yakstrong swag such as t-shirts, ball caps and rubber bracelets and donations, future events and fundraising. An initial fundraiser was held last June 25 at the Johnny Leroux Stittsville Community Arena in Stittsville which proved extremely successful, showing the huge amount of support that is out in the community for Mark and his family. This support is a reflection of the impact that both Mark and April Yakabuski have had on so many in the community. Right now attention is being directed to the costs related to Mark returning home from the rehab facility. These costs are very high so financial support from the community is essential so that Mark’s family does not have to worry about the cost but can focus on what matters most, family and Mark’s recovery. This 5K run on Sunday, Oct. 2 will be raising funds to help with these ongoing costs as Mark recovers from his injury.
Mark Yakabuski, a father of three, has been involved with the Stittsville Minor Hockey Association for the past ten years. In the 2015-2016 season, he was coach of the competitive Major Peewee team. Mark himself played in the Central Junior Hockey League with both Brockville and Kanata and later went on to play with the Ottawa 67’s. He has also played in the Stittsville Town Hockey League of which his brother Matt, also a Stittsville resident, is the current president.

‘O’ gauge model trains will be running at library Continued from page 1
“O” gauge for model trains is a commonly used scale in model railroading. Originally introduced by German toy manufacturer Marklin around 1900, this three-rail alternating current “O” gauge was the most common model railroad scale in the United States by the 1930’s and remained so until the

with Lionel, Marx and American Flyer rising to the top of the market. Between 1946 and 1976, the primary American manufacturers of “O” gauge trains were Lionel and Marx, with American Flyer switching to the more realistic “S” scale while other companies went out of business. “O” gauge started to regain popularity in the 1990’s and more manufacturers entered the business with no fewer than six companies marketing “O” gauge in the United States. Lionel Corporation manufactured toys including model toy trains from 1900 to 1995. Lionel trains were produced from 1900 to 1969 and have been admired by model railroaders for the solidity of their construction and the authenticity of their detail. The Lionel electric train was inducted into the National Toy Hall of Fame in the United States in 2006, joining the Easy-Bake Oven as the first electric toys to be inducted.

early 1960’s. The decline in popularity was due to the introduction of smaller scales. “O” gauge was particularly popular when model railroads were considered toys, with emphasis on cost, durability and the ability to be easily handled and operated by youth. Railroad detail and realism were secondary concerns. The name “O” gauge is derived from “O (zero) gauge” because it was smaller than Gauge 1 and the other existing standards. Gauge refers to the width of the model track. “O” gauge model railroad tracks typically have their rails space one and a quarter inches apart. Although Lionel is the most enduring brand of “O” gauge trains, a variety of manufacturers made trains in this scale. Prior to World War One, most toy trains sold in the United States were imported from Germany. A number of American companies made “O” gauge trains between the two World Wars,

Celebration of colour and sound Continued from page 1
And what a parade and ensuing flag raising celebration it was! Students and staff, numbering over 500, were decked out in green and white, the colours of the Franco-Ontarian flag. There were green and white headbands, green and white t-shirts, green hats, green faces, even green hair for some. But the parade was not only a visual celebration, it was also a celebration of sound. As the students, class by class, moved along the Trans Canada Trail from the school to Shea Road and then back along the Abbott Street sidewalk to the school, they created lots of celebratory noise and sounds. There were shouts and yells of joy but there were also lots of noisemakers as well, including trumpets, whistles, drums, horns, tambourines and triangles.

Raising of Franco-Ontarian flag Continued from page 6
These elementary school students cheered and high-fived the passing Paul-Desmaris students as they moved along the sidewalk in front of the school. Indeed, some Ecole St. Jean-Paul II students joined the Paul-Desmarais students at their flag raising ceremony where they took part in the proceedings. When the Franco-Ontarian Day parade got back to the front of Ecole secondaire catholique Paul-Desmarais about 11:30 a.m., a ceremony which included the raising of the Franco-Ontarian flag took place. At this ceremony, student voices explained the significance of the green and white colours of the Franco-Ontarian flag. A prayer expressed thankfulness for today’s situation in the province in which FrancoOntarians can celebrate their culture and their rights. The song “Mon beau drapeau” which is the official song of the Franco-Ontarian community and is familiar to all Franco-Ontarian students was sung as the Franco-Ontarian flag was raised on a flagpole at the front of the school, adjacent to a flag pole on which the Canadian flag was flying. Ecole secondaire catholique Paul-Desmarais principal Veronique Pourbaix-Kent said afterwards that this Franco-Ontarian Day allows today’s Franco-Ontarians to remember their ancestors and how they never gave up in the fight for their rights and for the opportunity to live their culture. This led to today’s situation in which Franco-Ontarian rights and the Franco-Ontarian culture are fully recognized and respected in Ontario society Following the flag raising, students were able to enjoy several special activities within the school before returning to class in the afternoon. These activities included karaoke dancing and signing a Franco-Ontarian flag. To grow school spirit, participation by the various classes in this first-ever Franco-Ontarian Day parade and rally at the school was judged, with three classes winning free pizza. The judging was done on the basis of visual impact, volume of noise and demonstration of pride. This parade, flag raising and other activities on Friday, Sept. 23 was a first for Ecole secondaire catholique Paul-Desmarais since the school at the corner of Abbott Street and Robert Grant Avenue only opened in Stittsville last
February. Last September the Paul-Desmarais students and staff had participated in a Franco-Ontarian Day parade at Ecole secondaire catholique Pierre-Savard in Barrhaven where the new school was housed while awaiting the completion of construction of the new facility in Stittsville. The province of Ontario officially proclaimed Franco-Ontarian Day in the year 2010. It is officially recognized on Sept. 25 each year. This date was chosen because this is the day back in 1975 when the Franco-Ontarian flag was raised for the first time. Franco-Ontarian Day recognizes the Francophone community’s contribution to the development of Ontario’s culture, history, society, economy and political structure. The Franco-Ontarian flag features two bands of green and white. The left portion has a solid light green background with a white fleur-delys in the middle while the right portion has a solid white background with a stylized green trillium in the middle. The green represents the summer months while the white represents the winter months. The trillium is the floral symbol of Ontario while the fleur-de-lys represents the French-Canadian heritage of the Franco-Ontarian community. The flag was created in 1975 by Gaetan Gervais, a history professor, and by Michel Dupuis, a political science student, both at Laurentian University in Sudbury. It was officially recognized by the provincial government as the emblem of the Franco-Ontarian community in the Franco-Ontarian Emblem Act of 2001. Franco-Ontarians are Ontario residents with a French Canadian or francophone heritage. In the 2011 census, there were nearly half a million self-declared francophones in Ontario, comprising almost four percent of the province’s total population. Franco-Ontarians constitute the largest French speaking community in Canada outside of Quebec. They also are the largest minority language group in Ontario. Ottawa has the province’s largest FrancoOntario community in overall numbers. On Friday, Sept. 23, the city of Ottawa along with the Association des communautes francophones d’Ottawa (ACFO d’Ottawa) held a Franco-Ontarian Day celebration at Ottawa city hall including an official flag raising ceremony.

Notice of Completion of Transit Project Assessment Process Confederation Line West Light Rail Transit Extension – City of Ottawa The City of Ottawa has completed an Environmental Project Report (EPR) in accordance with Ontario Regulation 231/08 for the Western Extension of the Confederation Line Light Rail Transit Environmental Assessment study.
The Project The City of Ottawa has developed a plan to extend and expand the City’s existing Light Rail Transit Network. Specifically the plan includes extending the future Confederation Line further west from Tunney’s Pasture Station to Bayshore and Baseline Stations, as well as a developing a Maintenance and Storage Facility in the Nepean-Woodroffe corridor, south of Norice Avenue. The purpose of this project is to provide a higher level of transit service to growing communities in the west and southwest of the city, a need identified in the City of Ottawa’s 2013 Transportation Master Plan. The Plan will add 13 kilometres of rail and 10 LRT stations to the City’s overall transit network at Westboro, Dominion, Cleary, New Orchard, Lincoln Fields, Iris, Baseline, Queensview, Pinecrest, and Bayshore. The plan will also connect directly to the West Transitway and the Southwest Transitway to facilitate connections to the communities of Kanata and Barrhaven. Preliminary engineering review has resulted in design refinements to the alignment along Richmond Road and Byron Linear Park, Lincoln Fields Station, Iris Station, and Bayshore Station. These changes have no significant additional environmental impact, reduce implementation costs, improve construction staging conditions, improve transit user experience, and have been incorporated into the EPR.
The Process The environmental impact of this transit project was assessed and an EPR prepared according to the Transit Project Assessment Process as prescribed in Ontario Regulation 231/08, Transit Projects and Greater Toronto Transportation Authority Undertakings. The EPR documents the entire study process, including a description of the planned project, its anticipated environmental impacts, and the project’s consultation program. The EPR for the Confederation Line West LRT Extension will be available for a 30-day public review period starting September 29, 2016. Please note that the Draft EPR has been available for public review during the 120 day Notice of Commencement phase, which began on June 2, 2016. The final EPR is available at the locations noted below during their regular business hours.

OPINION
Connected to your community
Captain a Canadian, eh!
S
outh of the border they say things are “as American as apple pie.� They can keep the fruit. Up here we’re “as Canadian as hockey.� And our passion for the game – the national identity some would say – makes it so very fitting that former Ottawa Senators captain Daniel Alfredsson became a Canadian citizen last week. Swedish by birth, Alfredsson has spent roughly half of his 43 years in this country. He’s the physical embodiment of hockey for a generation of fans in this city. Alfredsson was always a hard worker, never taking a shift off. Even after the wear and tear on his body forced retirement upon him, he returned to work in the front office of the Ottawa Senators. The future hall-of-famer will see his No. 11 jersey lifted to the rafters of the Canadian Tire Centre this year; a further
reminder that he’s part of our collective hockey history. Alfredsson’s wife, Bibbi, also became a citizen at the same ceremony in Toronto, while their kids, who were born here, were already dual citizens. Alfie, as he is known so affectionally here, and Bibbi, received a great welcome as new citizens. NHL commissioner Gary Bettman called Alfredsson the “consummate ambassador for the game,� and the fans in Ottawa – where we host plenty of ambassadors – no doubt agree. Thanks are hereby sent out to Alfredsson and his family for being part of this city for so many years – and for many more years to come. And a big thank you – or “tack� – to Sweden for sharing him with all of us for so many years, and now sharing him with us as citizens of our hockey-loving nations.
Chateau reno not necessarily bad
I
t’s not an easy thing being Ottawa. With our reputation for stodginess, we can’t oppose any innovation, no matter how bizarre, without being labelled dull. On the other hand, we can’t try anything really innovative without being opposed by people who are ‌ well, stodgy. That may be all the context you need to follow the current discussion over proposed renovations to the Château Laurier. The additions to the hotel, as shown in media coverage, don’t fit with many people’s idea of what a Château Laurier should look like. Those people have howled, frightening various elected officials who at first didn’t think the additions looked so bad. Now they do. But there has since come a
CHARLES GORDON Funny Town second howl, from those who hate stodginess. Why don’t we lighten up, they ask. Why do we have to be so tradition-bound? Then they go on to cite various examples of modernist additions to old buildings that look just fine. However, not all of them do look just fine. At least not to everyone. Do you like that crazy glass thing tacked onto the Royal Ontario Museum in Toronto? Are you happy that they put the I.M. Pei pyramid outside the Louvre? Some of us, for fear of being
labelled stodgy, will say we like it. That, of course, is how the emperor was able to get away with wearing his new clothes for as long as he did. On the other side, the side of those who put up the structures that we argue about, the anticipation of a hostile reaction can produce unfortunate results. We get modern buildings that don’t look particularly modern. They don’t offend, they don’t inspire. Most of downtown Ottawa is like that. Take a walk along Queen Street, when they finish it. Taste is a funny thing. All of us think we have it. And all of us know people who don’t have it. And they probably think the same of us. That makes for a weird debate. It is made weirder by the notion,

in our democratic and egalitarian society, that we all have a right to our opinions. That is taken, in some places, to mean that one guy’s opinion is as good as the other’s. Which can then mean that an architect’s opinion on the Château Laurier is no better than a trumpet player’s, or a politician’s. How do we resolve this? We don’t want to have our tastes dictated from above by people who think they know what’s best for us. On the other hand, we don’t want our artists, our architects to be timid and boring because they don’t want to offend anybody. Where that puts us on the Château Laurier is anybody’s guess. It’s a safe bet that the more consultation and the more reviewing goes on the less interesting the building is going to be. It’s also a safe bet that many people would prefer it to be that way. It’s tempting to say: just go for it.

‘Sod turning’ for new Hazeldean Gardens retirement residence John Curry john.curry@metroland.com
There was no sod to turn last Saturday, Sept. 24 on the paved and gravelled former Stittsville Flea Market site that will be home to the new Hazeldean Gardens retirement residence. But this was not a setback as the “sod turning” or more appropriately the “launch” of the new facility went ahead with a big yellow backhoe parked on the site, complete with a yellow bow tied to it, to serve as a backdrop
for the launch ceremony. And a symbolic shovel which was used as a prop at the ceremony also featured a yellow bow matching the one on the backhoe. Taking part in this launch ceremony were city of Ottawa Stittsville ward councillor Shad Qadri, Wit Lewandowski who is president of Hazeldean Gardens, Murray Jackson who is president of Eastridge Management Services which will manage the facility in partnership with Mr. Lewandowski, and Allan Jackson who is president of Capital Commercial Investment, a partner in Ha-
zeldean Gardens. In his remarks prior to the official launch ceremony, Murray Jackson told the more than 75 people in attendance at the site on the sunny, warm day that the new Hazeldean Gardens retirement residence will be one of the finest such facilities in Eastern Ontario. He noted that those involved with the locally owned family business that is constructing the facility and will be operating it has over 15 years experience in the business, having built and operate two other retirement residences – Rideau Gardens in Ottawa and Quinte Gardens in Belleville.
He said that Hazeldean Gardens, which is slated to open in the early spring of 2018, will be a full service residence offering a continuum of care from independent living to a range of assisted care, allowing residents to “age in place” by accessing higher levels of care as their needs change. He said that the new retirement residence will have a secure memory care unit that will incorporate best practices in its operation. Mr. Jackson said that Hazeldean Gardens will employ over 100 full and part time staff when it is up and running. See UPGRADING, page 11
NORTHERN ADVENTURE - LAND AND CRUISE Baseline Road Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) Corridor Environmental Assessment Study (Bayshore Station to Heron Station) Open House # 4 (Final) Wednesday, October 5, 2016 Nepean Sportsplex, Halls A and B 1701 Woodroffe Avenue 6 to 9 p.m., presentation: 7 p.m. Transit Access: 94, 95, 157, 173 The City of Ottawa is working on a Planning and Environmental Assessment (EA) Study for the proposed at-grade Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) facility between Bayshore Station and Heron Station along a 14.5 km corridor generally following Baseline Road and Heron Road. The proposed facility would accommodate increasing travel demand across the City and help achieve modal share targets as set out in the Transportation Master Plan (TMP). Implementation of the BRT facility is identified in the TMP as follows: • Baseline Station to Billings Bridge Station: Part of 2031 Affordable Transit Network. • Baseline Station to Bayshore Station: Part of Network Concept Plan (Post 2031). The EA Study will determine measures to improve transit service efficiency along the corridor and result in the expansion of the City’s transit network. Study Area The Study Area stretches between Bayshore Station and Billings Bridge Station along a corridor following Holly Acres Road, Richmond Road, Baseline Road, Navaho Drive and Heron Road and includes the area around Baseline Station. At the Open House you will: • Receive an update on the study’s progress • Learn about the Recommended Plan for the corridor • Have the opportunity to: °°Discuss the project with the study team and how it may affect your property °°Provide feedback Public input and comment on the information presented at the Open House event will be received until October 21, 2016. The Environmental Assessment portion of the study will be undertaken in accordance with the Transit Project Assessment Process (TPAP) as prescribed in Ontario Regulation 231/08, Transit Projects. The EA process involves developing, assessing, and evaluating alternatives, which results in a Recommended Plan that will be presented to City’s Transportation Committee and Council for approval in mid 2016. Interested persons can provide comments throughout the environmental assessment process. Any comments received will be collected under the Environmental Assessment Act and, with the exception of personal information, will become part of the public record as per the Municipal Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act (MFIPPA). Further information on the EA Study is available on the City’s project web site at: ottawa.ca/baselinecorridor. There will be ongoing consultation activities with study stakeholders during the remaining course of the study. Accessibility is an important consideration for the City of Ottawa. If you require special accommodation, please call or email the contact below before the event.

Upgrading ‘Welcome to Stittsville’ sign park possible Continued from page 10
This will include everything from nursing staff to personal care staff to housekeeping staff to administration staff. City of Ottawa Stittsville ward councillor Shad Qadri, in his remarks at the launch ceremony, praised the Hazeldean Gardens
owners for reaching out to the community and wanting to be part of the community going forward. One example of this reaching out to the community is the fact that the Hazeldean Gardens owners invited the Stittsville District Lions Club to be in attendance at the launch ceremony. All donations
received from those enjoying the free BBQ on site served up by The Glen Restaurant & Pub of Stittsville at the launch ceremony are being donated to the Lions Club for its work in the community. In addition, Hazeldean Gardens will be matching this donated amount, adding to the amount going to the
Lions Club. Another initiative is being involved with the upgrading of the park area around the “Welcome to Stittsville” sign at the corner of Hazeldean Road and Stittsville Main Street which is adjacent to the Hazeldean Gardens site. Mr. Jackson said that Hazeldean Gardens is committed to being a partner in upgrading this park area so that it can offer more enjoyment to the community. Upgrades might include walking paths, benches, a gazebo or a pickleball court. Following the launch ceremony, Sharron Kavanagh of the Stittsville Flea Market presented the Hazeldean Gardens owners with a
framed montage of various scenes from the former Flea Market. The family business which is developing and will operate Hazeldean Gardens includes Wit Lewandowski, his wife Terry Lewandowski, his cousin Vicki Jackson and her husband Murray Jackson and their son Allan Jackson. Terry Lewandowski and Vicki Jackson will be overseeing the design features of the project and will provide personal decorating touches to the facility. Peter Knudsen of Knudsen Construction is the general contractor while Mike Brennan is the project manager and Wayne Goodchild is the site foreman.

fic to the site that traditional building methods would have required. In addition, these insulated concrete forms have a high “r” value in terms of both temperature and sound. All lighting both inside and outside the facility will be LED lighting which is now recognized as the most environmental friendly lighting available. The city of Ottawa is currently embarking on an extensive project to switch all of its street lighting to LED lighting. At the official sod turning ceremony for this new Hazeldean Gardens retirement residence last Saturday, Murray Jackson, one of the owners of the family business that is building and will operate Hazeldean Gardens, said that these environmental initiatives were being done for this project because they are simply the right thing to do.

Well, keeping this rock on site is saving the over 800 truckloads that would be needed to haul the rock away from the site. And then there would be more truckloads required to hire fill back to the site for filling in around the foundation and other uses. Now that’s a lot of truckloads and a lot of truck emissions going into the environment! But for this Hazeldean Gardens project, a different approach is being taken to eliminate this trucking and the subsequent emissions. The rock excavated from the site for the facility’s foundation has been piled on site and will be crushed and reused at the site as fill around the foundation, as fill to level the site and as fill for the parking lot base. This not only greatly reduces the environmental impact from the trucking that would have been required to take the rock off site but also it is reusing material that has come from the site itself. This new Hazeldean Gardens retirement residence is also being built using insulated concrete forms. This again reduces some of the truck traf-

First-ever contests for Stittsville Toastmasters Club John Curry
john.curry@metroland.com
The Stittsville Toastmasters Club held its first-ever Humourous Speech and Speech Evaluation Contests at its meeting on Wednesday, Sept. 21.
Lorraine Kimbers placed first in the Humourous Speech Contest with Carla Gajdecki placing second and Gerry Tapp finishing in third place. In the Speech Evaluation Contest, Gerry Tapp finished in first place with Sandra Gloss placing second. In the Humourous Speech Contest, contes-
tants presented a humourous speech five to seven minutes in length that was thematic in nature i.e. it had an opening, a body and a close. Such speeches cannot be just a series of one liners. In the Speech Evaluation Contest, contestants observed a five to seven minute test speech and then presented a two to three minute evalu-
ation of the test speech. Following this competition at the Club level, the winners will go on to compete at the Area, Division and District levels. Two Club members are eligible to go on to these other levels of competition. See SPECIAL GUESTS, page 19

Haunting Season at Saunders Farm features ferris wheel and carousel John Curry john.curry@metroland.com
JOHN CURRY/METROLAND
Mark Saunders of Saunders Farm at Munster stands with the 1917 Eli Bridge No. 5 ferris wheel and the 1938 Allen Herschell three-abreast wooden carousel in the background. The ferris wheel and carousel are featured attractions at the 1930’s era vintage carnival which has been set up for this year’s Haunting Season at Saunders Farm.
It’s a trip back in time that you and your family will want to take. And you will be able to do it at this year’s Haunting Season at Saunders Farm in Munster which got underway last Saturday, Sept. 24 and will now continue through until Monday, Oct. 31 which is Halloween. It’s a trip back to a 1930’s era carnival that features a 1917 Eli Bridge No. 5 ferris wheel and a 1938 Allen Herschell three-abreast wooden carousel (merry go round). Both of these glow with lights, a visual attraction you don’t want to miss. In addition, there’s a high striker as well as other classic games and an antique truck which is the stage for entertainment performances. But there’s more. There’s also the Big Top Fun House, a large white tent filled with family friendly attractions featuring interactive experiences suitable for a younger audience. This clown-themed Big Top Fun House, though, has a Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde personality because when darkness falls, it becomes the Big Top Fear House, becoming Saunders Farm’s sixth “fright site.” All of this – the ferris wheel, the carousel, the high striker, the antique truck and the Big Top Fun House are all close together in one area of Saunders Farm, accessed by walking through a vintage facade gate identifying it as the home of a “Carnivale.” Mark Saunders, Director of Fun at Saunders Farm, says that this carnival attraction at the Farm
this Haunting Season has been set up to convey that 1930’s vintage feel of a carnival. There are even giant carnival banners enclosing the area to add to this vintage feel. As to whether this vintage carnival will become a regular attraction at Saunders Farm, that remains to be seen depending on feedback from this year’s Haunting Season and other considerations. So that’s another reason to make that trip to Saunders Farm for this year’s Haunting Season and enjoy the ferris wheel, carousel and other carnival attractions now. It may not be there in the future and you don’t want to miss this fun trip back into the carnival times of the 1930’s. And while you are there, you will be able to visit not only the Big Top Fun House alias the Big Top Fear House in the evening but also the other five “fright sites” at Saunders Farm – the Haunted Hayride, the Barn of Terror, Shambles, the Graveyard and Camp Slaughter. Hours of operation at Saunders Farm for this year’s Haunting Season have been extended to 11 p.m. on both Friday and Saturday nights. This is the 25th anniversary year for the Haunting Season at Saunders Farm, with the first Haunting Season happening in 1992. Haunting Season this year runs through to Halloween on Monday, Oct. 31. Ticket prices and hours of operation are available at the Saunders Farm website at www.SaundersFarm. com. Saunders Farm at Munster tries to provide a space that offers fun, food and memories for everyone, attracting tens of thousands of visitors each year. See SAUNDERS FARM, page 23

Councillor’s Column Keeping You Informed By Shad Qadri, Councillor Ward Six Stittsville City of Ottawa
September 29, 2016 Councillor’s Column Keeping You Informed Granite Ridge Drive Upcoming Hydro Ottawa Work Hydro Ottawa will be undertaking work on Granite Ridge Drive between Abbott Street East and just north of Cinnabar Way as part of ongoing upgrade projects in the area. It is expected the work will begin in the second week of October and Hydro Ottawa is hoping to have the work completed within 4 weeks. Residents with properties affected by this work will receive a handout in advance of the work being undertaken and there will be no power outages to any customer. This project does require the sidewalk to be removed and replaced, and the reinstatement has been requested to follow the excavation, so it is expected that there will be not open areas upon completion of each section. I have raised concern that this area is used by students accessing schools in the area and I have been assured that the contract stipulates that this area has the school and that a safe walk area must be maintained at all times. If you require additional information please contact my office and you may also contact Bruce Bain at Hydro Ottawa at BruceJBain@hydroottawa.com or 613-738-5499x 7285. Hesse Crescent Stormwater Management Work Completed I am happy to inform residents that the stormwater management work in the area of land north of Hesse Crescent in Stittsville has been completed. The work, which began earlier in the month, consisted of the clearing of brush and some limited small tree removal, removal of accumulated sediment and earth grading, and reinstatement of the low flow drainage channel extending from the storm sewer outlet from Hesse Crescent to the outlet structure on the north side of the block The work was required to ensure that: i) flow from normal rain events is conveyed through the city block without undue erosion; and ii) adequate space is provided to accommodate storage of storm water volume from extreme rainfall events, in order to protect residence from flooding and downstream lands from erosion. I hope that all residents will be pleased with the new look and functionality of the facility. Of course, please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions at Shad.Qadri@ottawa.ca. Stittsville Fall Tree Planting I am happy to advise that Forestry Services’ fall planting program is scheduled to begin the week of October 3rd and will run, weather permitting, until the third week of November. This includes tree planting in parks, at City facilities, and along streets. A detailed list of locations where trees will be planted in ward 6 is available on my website at shadqadri.com. Note that this information is what is planned as of today and cancellations/changes typically occur. Residents should receive notification where a tree planting is scheduled on City property adjacent to a residence in advance of planting. Residents should also expect to see utility locate flags and paint on the ground prior to planting. Planting takes place through the City in following ward order: 5, 20 (partial),19,1,2, 11, 13, 12, 14, 15, 7, 8, 9, 23, 4, 5, 6, 3, 22W, 16, 17, 18, 10, 22E, 20. In advance of tree planting, some site preparation work must be done including spot spraying and cutting of buckthorn. For more information, please do not hesitate to contact me at Shad.Qadri@ottawa.ca. Ottawa 2017 Countdown For those at home keeping track, we have officially hit the 100 day countdown to Canada’s 150th anniversary year! I would love to take a quick moment to invite residents to the year-long festivities coming up for what is certain to be a formidable lineup of sesquicentennial celebrations. As someone who has experienced Canada’s centennial anniversary firsthand, I can personally attest to the memories it has created for me when I was a young person and the pride it made me feel to be a true Canadian. The Ottawa 2017 programming is really taking shape, with Signature Events that will give goosebumps to millions and create memories that families will share for years to come. Some of these events are even coming right home to Stittsville! Agri150 is a rural comprising of more than 20 events traversing the communities of Stittsville, West Carleton-March, Cumberland, Osgoode, and Rideau Goulbourn. Or you could stop by the future home of Ottawa’s Light Rail Transit tunnel for an Underground Multimedia Experience where you can take the opportunity to see the LRT tunnel for yourself before its first ride on-track for 2018! These and many more festivities have now been added to the lineup. I would like to encourage residents to take an overview of all the events so far at ottawa2017.ca as new events will continue being announced until the festivities begin. I hope to see as many residents taking in all the sights and sounds Ottawa will have to offer next year as possible. The magic will begin in less than 100 days and I know I will be counting down. Will you? Always Listening As your Councillor, I always welcome your keen input and ideas on how we can sustain and improve Stittsville. Please contact our office anytime by phone at 613-580-2476 or by e-mail at Shad.Qadri@ottawa.ca. If you are a Stittsville resident of Ward 6 and would like to be added to my weekly electronic outreach list, please contact my office to ensure you receive pertinent information concerning our community.

After our Mid-Term Town Hall meeting in Pierce’s Corners this week, we’ll take a break next week from our Town Hall series for a meeting that will deal specifically with the 2017 Budget. Along with Councillors Michael Qaqish and George Darouze, I will be co-hosting a pre-budget consultation meeting on Wednesday, October 5th at the Rideauview Community Centre in Riverside South, beginning at 7:30pm. The Rideauview Community Centre is located at 4310 Shoreline Drive, just off Spratt Road. Residents may also offer budget input by sending an email directly to budget@ottawa.ca, by contacting their City Councillor or by tweeting @ottawacity using the hashtag #ottbudget. Learn more about the City’s budget process with the resources at ottawa.ca. The 2017 Budget will be tabled a City Council in November. Agriculture & Rural Affairs Committee Our 20th Agriculture & Rural Affairs Committee meeting of this term of Council is coming up on Thursday, October 6th at 10:00am. As always, anyone who is interested in attending is welcome to come to the Council Chambers at the Ben Franklin Place. We never take too much of your time and it is a good opportunity to see your local Government at work alongside my committee colleagues Eli El-Chantiry, Allan Hubley, Stephen Blais and Vice Chair George Darouze. Agenda items for the October 6th meeting include: • Proposed Drainage Diversion to Kizell Municipal Drain (Kanata North) • Appointment of Engineer for Flowing Creek Municipal Drain (Rideau-Goulbourn) • Zoning By-Law Amendment (Surplus Farm Severance) for 2548 8th Line Road (Osgoode) • Permitted Building Heights for Accessory Buildings • Official Plan & Zoning By-Law Amendments pertaining to Coach Houses The report on Coach Houses addresses many of the concerns that were raised several months ago as they relate to the permission of coach houses in the rural area. Originally, the intent of the coach house permission was to create a policy in which a coach house would be permitted as a right as long as the property was on municipal services. Therefore, the property owner just requires a building permit. However, in the rural area, consideration has to be given to private servicing. The report addresses that and sets out the parameters for approving coach houses in the rural area. The policies are similar to that of an in-law suite addition to an existing home. The report on accessory building heights is a complementary report to the Coach House By-Law and only applies to Village Residential Zones. There are no recommended changes to accessory building heights outside of villages in the rural area. You can find all of the reports listed on the agenda by visiting the City of Ottawa’s website at Ottawa.ca. If you have any comments, questions or concerns, please feel free to email me at Scott.Moffatt@ottawa.ca or contact me by phone at 613-580-2491.

25th anniversary year for A.L.C. John Curry john.curry@metroland.com
tions to education in Carleton over the years. A Goulbourn native, A. Lorne Cassidy began his career in education in 1947 teaching at S.S. No. 4 Goulbourn at Dwyer Hill. Three years later, he moved to Kingston where he taught and then became a vice-principal and later a principal. He remained in Kingston until 1965 when he returned to the Ottawa area after being appointed an Inspector of Schools with the Nepean Township School Area Board. This Board was absorbed into the new Carleton Board of Education in 1969. For a year, he then served as a special advisor to the Director of Education of the new Carleton Board of Education, after which he was appointed as the Board’s Coordinator of the Special Services Department. In 1977, he became Superintendent of Schools for the Carleton Board of Education’s western area which included schools in Stittsville and Goulbourn. He had received his elementary and secondary education in Richmond and Ottawa, after which he went on to obtain a number of university degrees including a Bachelor of Arts from Queens University and a Bachelor of Education and a Master of Education from the University of Toronto. A Lorne Cassidy was always active in professional and volunteer organizations during his career. He served as president of the Ontario Council for Exceptional Children and for his service to this organization, he was presented with a Certi icate of Appreciation for his service to the Council and to exceptional children and youth in the province. He also worked with the Ontario Association for Curriculum Development and was presented with an Honourary Life Membership in the organization in 1977 for his distinguished service to that organization. The irst Parent Teacher Association execu-
tive for the new A. Lorne Cassidy Elementary School in Stittsville was selected in Oct. 1991. It was led by Karen Tsandilis as chair with Isabel Bourada as vice-chair.
It’s celebration time at A. Lorne Cassidy Elementary School in StittsSee OLYMPIAN, page 25 ville. The school on Hobin Street is marking its 25th anniversary year this year, having been built and opened in 1991. To mark the occasion, there will be special celebrations at the school this Friday, Sept. 30 including an array of evening celebrations for the community. During the day on Sept. 30, students will celebrate with an assembly, with decorating t-shirts and with participating in the school’s annual Terry Fox Run. In the evening between 6 p.m. and 8:30 p.m., everyone in the community is welcome to drop in and enjoy family games, a silent auction, desserts and entertainment including a performance by A.L.C. alumni Grace Lachance who is making a name for herself in the local music scene in Ottawa these days. It was in Feb. 1991 that the former Carleton Board of Education awarded a contract to MeullerHein Corporation for the construction of a new elementary school in the Crossing Bridge Estates area of Stittsville at a cost of $5,977,000. The school, which was to house junior kindergarten to grade seven A. Lorne Cassidy Elementary School is students in both English and French named after the late A. Lorne Cassidy Immersion programs in its irst year who was a distinguished educator and while expanding to include grade superintendent with the former Carleton eight in its second year, was to be Board of Education. ready for a Sept. 1991 opening. The irst day of school at A. Lorne Cassidy Elementary School happened on Tuesday, Sept. 3, 1991 under sunny blue skies when 600 students gathered at the Hobin Street school. The students were joined by Lyle MacLennan, the Carleton Board of Education Director of Education, who was at the site for the opening day. Construction work had continued throughout the previous Labour Day weekend in order to get the 850 pupil place school ready for opening. On opening day, the school was completed except for the gymnasium and kindergarten rooms which were still under construction. It was at a Board of Trustees meeting of the Carleton Board of Education in April 1991 that it was decided that the new school would be named after former Carleton Board of Education Superintendent of Schools and Goulbourn native the late A. Lorne Cassidy. The name was chosen by the school’s project comJOHN CURRY/METROLAND mittee because of A.

Olympian Carolyn Waldo visited in 1992 Continued from page 24
Others on the executive included Carolyn Whittall as secretary, Sharon Stead as treasurer, Cathy Spencer as the representative on the Carleton Council of Parent Associations and Christine Ritchie, Cheryl Hobin, Carole Holloway, Sarah Smith, Irish Pragnell, Linda Hornbeek, Dyanne Storie, Brenda Crawford and Maureen Talarico as members at large with Dyanne Storie in charge of fundraising. One highlight in the early history of A. Lorne Cassidy Elementary School was a 1992 visit to the school by CJOH-TV sportscaster and double Olympic gold medal winner in synchronized swimming Carolyn Waldo. During her visit, students had the opportunity to see and even touch one of her Olympic gold medals. Her visit to the school came at the height of the coverage of the 1992 Winter Olympics which were taking place in Albertville, France. Carolyn won her Olympic gold medals at the 1988 Olympics in Seoul, South Korea. She had also won a silver medal in synchronized swimming at the 1984 Olympics in Los Angeles in the United States. Carolyn was also a four time world champion in synchronized swimming. Because A. Lorne Cassidy Elementary School opened in 1991 with students only up to grade seven, its irst-ever grade eight graduation did not take place until June 1993 when 53 students graduated from grade eight and went on to high school. A number of individual awards were presented at the graduation ceremony which took place in the school gymnasium. Included in these awards were a number of “A. Lorne Cassidy School Letter Awards” marking the contri-
bution which individual students had made to the life of the school in such endeavours as athletics, academic achievement, leadership and involvement. Recipients included Tracey Kutney, Leslie Hollington and Adam McCaffrey. Class valedictorian for this irstever graduating class at the school was Stuart Reed. He received the valedictorian’s plaque from principal Mike MacKay. In his valedictory address, Stuart Reed recited various “ irsts” achieved by the graduating class over the previous two years at the school including the irst yearbook, the irst athletic teams and the irst school clubs. “We made this brand new school ours,” he said. The 53 students who were part of this first-ever grade eight graduating class at A. Lorne Cassidy Elementary School were Crystaleen Aitkenhead, Stacey Albert, Hugh Beattie, Aleisha Bell, Paula Bradley, Jamie Caldwell, Kim Carson, Melissa Carty, Ben Cochrane, Byron Cotnam, Agamdeep Darshi, Matthew Derrick, John Donaldson, Laura Droeske, Rebecca Droeske, Sheili Droszio, Allison Dunfield, Melody Ellard, Glenn Fitzpatrick, Anne-Marie Frigon, Derek Fyke, Dwayne Fyke, Matthew Garlick, Steven Greatrex, Leslie Hollington, Stacey Huneke, Niels Jorgensen, Tara Kaye, Tracey Kutney, Robert Lafleur, Cameron Lugg, Adam McCaffrey, Jennifer McDonald, Laurie McMechan, Ian Miller, Samuel Pye, Rebecca Rafuse, Sarah Rawlins, Stuart Reed, Krista Russell, Chris Schroeder, Kasie Smith, Andrew Smits, Craig Speers, Amanda Stapledon, Jeffrey Sward, Anthony Talarico, Varun Tangri, David Tilgner, James Valois, Jenny-Ann Webster and Jesse Zwicker.

The Wynne Government’s mismanagement of the Ontario education system is alarming. I think you’ll agree with me that a strong education system is a major part of a strong economy and a strong society. Unfortunately, EQAO math scores have been declining for years, but they hit a new low recently. 50% of students in grade 6 can’t meet the provincial standard in mathematics. In grade 3, it’s even worse: 63% fail to meet the standard. Wynne’s approach to education just isn’t working. Children aren’t even expected to memorize multiplication tables anymore. Nevertheless, the Government claims to be doing something about it. They plan to set aside $60 million in order to devote an average of 60 minutes of “protected math learning time.” I think parents may have doubts about this strategy, since it’s not so much a question of time - but rather of a failed curriculum.

Hockey in Sweden and Finland. Memorable. Experiencing these European cultures up close. Awesome. Learning what it takes to play at an elite level. Priceless. This is what Hillary Sterling and Mya Vaslet, two Sacred Heart High School students currently in grade eight, experienced last April when they played as members of the East Coast Selects girls hockey team in a tournament in Finland. Here at home, Mya plays girls hockey for the Kanata Rangers while Hillary plays for the Nepean Wildcats. Both of them had come to the attention of the organizers of the East Coast Selects hockey program and were invited to a one-day tryout camp in Buffalo, New York last January. Both were successful and were chosen for the East Coast Selects team, travelling to Sweden and then Finland last April. In Sweden, the team had a practice and played two exhibition games, after which the team took an overnight cruise ship to Helsinki, Finland where the actual tournament was held. The East Coast Selects played other Selects teams from various countries like Germany, Moscow and of course the host Finnish team. The East Coast Selects lost in the tournament quarter-finals to Finland which went on to be tournament champions. Mya explains that all of the teams in the tournament were really strong, adding that the Finnish team had some older girls in its lineup. But the early exit from the tournament gave Mya and Hillary and their teammates and families a free day in Helsinki, an opportunity that some of them used to go on a bike tour around Helsinki. This was only part of their exposure to the culture and way of life in Finland and Sweden. Other touring which happened before the tournament allowed them to see some of the sights in both Stockholm and Helsinski. And during this trip they got to experience Scandinavian food favourites such as Swedish meatballs, salmon soup and even reindeer pasta. Both particularly liked the salmon soup. Hillary notes that lots of people walk in these European countries, with Mya adding that this makes it busy when out walking in the streets.
Both Hillary and Mya agree that besides playing in the tournament, the experiencing of these cultures in Sweden and Finland was one of the highlights of the trip for them. Both stayed in hotels during their days in Sweden and Finland, with Mya accompanied by her father and Hillary accompanied by her parents. One of the highlights of the tournament for Hillary happened even before tournament play began as it was the opening ceremony and dinner at which each team paraded into the hall as a group, wearing team jackets. She says that the ceremony reminded her of the opening ceremony at an Olympics. Hillary liked making new friends both on her own team as well as on other teams in the tournament while Mya particularly enjoyed the biking experience in Finland. Hilary and Mya both note that the calibre of play in the tournament was high, something which has spurred them on in their own hockey development. Mya says that being exposed to this level of play has inspired her to work harder on her game, something which she did over the past summer. Hillary notes that the games were a lot more physical than what she is used to normally in her hockey and so now she is focussing in her play on battling harder for the puck, being more physical and skating faster. Like Mya, she worked hard over the past summer on these aspects of her game. Both have now returned to the ice with their regular teams for a new season of hockey. Hillary played in a tournament two weekends ago, coming away with a tournament victory thanks to her shootout goal in the championship game. Mya travelled to Stoney Creek for a tournament with her Kanata Rangers team last weekend. Mya mostly plays centre for her team as does Hillary with her team. Mya describes herself as an aggressive player and a playmaker who will battle to get the puck to teammates for a scoring chance. She is also one of the fastest skaters on her Kanata Rangers team. Hillary describes herself as a playmaker as well, trying to make the right choices on the ice and battling for the puck against other players. See MYA VASLET, page 27

Mya Vaslet and Hillary Sterling play for East Coast Selects in tournament Continued from page 26
ADVERTORIAL
Both have dreams of someday playing for Team Canada. Mya has already been contacted by a couple of universities about playing for them in the future. Hillary also would like to pursue a university hockey scholarship in the future. Having made an East Coast Selects team, both girls can now play for them for three years. Next April the East Coast Selects team will be playing in a tournament in Italy, something that Hillary is looking forward to. The Selects girls hockey program, organized by Legacy Global Sports, began in 2007 and now includes over 15 Selects teams from across North America and Europe including the East Coast Selects. Through its Selects hockey programs, Legacy Global Sports tries to create sporting experiences for youth athletes and their families, providing them with an opportunity to grow through sports. These Selects teams like the East Coast Selects on which Hillary and Mya played give youth athletes an opportunity to compete against and play with top teams and players from around the world. In so doing, it provides these young players with a unique combination of hockey and life experiences.

‘Rev. Michael Gillissie Parish Hall’ John Curry john.curry@metroland.com
It’s official now. It’s the “Rev. Michael Gillissie Parish Hall.” The parish hall at St. Philip Catholic Church at the corner of Burke Street and Cockburn Street in Richmond was officially named and dedicated as the “Rev. Michael Gillissie Parish Hall” in a brief ceremony following the 10:30 a.m. mass at the church on Sunday, Sept. 25. Unfortunately, due to health concerns, Rev. Gillissie could not attend this dedication ceremony but he was represented by numerous family members including his brother Paul Gillissie and his sister Mary Ann McBane who together unveiled the sign outside the hall which now identifies it as the “Rev. Michael Gillissie Parish Hall.” The hall has been open since 1996 with Rev. Gillissie, who was the parish priest at the time, widely acknowledged as the driving force and inspiration behind its construction. Rev. Gillissie, who served as the pastor at St. Philip’s from 1992 to 2001, wanted a parish hall for St. Philip’s so that the parish would have a meeting place for parish activities and gatherings. Indeed, it was early in his tenure at St. Philip’s when he shared his dream with the congregation for building a parish hall. In May 1993, all parishioners were asked to complete a questionnaire on building a parish hall, with 84 percent of parishioners in support. But then came the challenge of raising the funds for the project. There was land on Fortune Street owned by the church. Rather than sell the land, it was thought that

more funds could be generated by raffling off the land and so raffle tickets at $100 each were sold, with the winner getting the land. But there was still a need for more funding. On Sept. 25, 1994, St. Philip’s Parish celebrated its 175th anniversary with a mass presided over by Ottawa Archbishop Marcel Gervais. Following this mass, an idea was hatched to have the Archdiocese run a raffle with land owned by St. Philip’s on Ottawa Street as the first prize. This raffle did the trick as it generated the remaining funding need to start the project. Parishioner Tom DeMarco was instrumental in the actual construction of the parish hall which was designed by architect Ralph Vandenberg. Speaking at a reception in the newly named “Rev. Michael Gillissie Parish Hall” following the naming and dedication ceremony, Mr. DeMarco summed up Rev. Gillissie’s involvement in the project as follows: “He had a vision and every week it was just a lot of fun building this hall and working with Father.” He read the wording on a plaque which will be placed inside the entrance to the parish hall which will identify the parish hall as the “Rev. Michael Gillissie Parish Hall” and will explain some of the background to the project such as how Rev. Gillissie’s leadership was essential to the project and how it arose from his desire to have a space in which parishioners could gather. The reception following the naming and dedication ceremony also saw the cutting of a special cake with the cutting done by Rev. Gillissie’s sister Mary Ann McBane, assisted by her brother Paul Gillissie.

Rev. Michael Gillissie energeized St. Philip’s after arriving in 1992 Continued from page 33
In speaking on behalf of the Gillissie family and his brother Rev. Gillissie in the church at the conclusion of the 10:30 a.m. mass, Paul Gillissie extended his brother’s thanks to the many who had been involved with the parish hall project and with the life of the parish during his tenure as pastor. He said that his brother was awed by the involvement of the parishioners of St. Philip’s in the parish, with everyone rolling up their sleeves and helping out when needed. “You have touched his soul forever,” Paul said in concluding his remarks on behalf of his brother, after which there was a standing ovation by
those who filled the church for the occasion. In his remarks earlier in the mass, current St. Philip’s pastor Rev. Bob Poole noted that it was Rev. Gillissie’s vision that brought about the building of the parish hall at St. Philip’s. Later, at the dedication ceremony, he said that the parish hall will continue to be the centre of parish activities and life. In his remarks at the reception in the parish hall following the dedication ceremony outside, Brian McSheffrey recounted not only Rev. Gillissie’s involvement and leadership in the building of the parish hall but also in the way that he energized the parish from the moment that he arrived in 1992.
“In the summer of 1992, St. Philip’s Church went from zero to about 200 miles per hour when Father Michael Gillissie showed up as our new pastor,” he said. He noted that within weeks of Father Gillissie’s arrival, there was a parish picnic with races and other activities. He urged the formation of a Knights of Columbus Round Table and established an annual parish winter fun day at the Baxter Centre. He organized school ski trips, he held BBQ’s after mass, he initiated planning for the parish’s 175th anniversary celebrations and he made improvements to the church’s infrastructure, including a new garage, a new annex,

he wanted to have a hall so that he could continue to build a

Thanks from the Dubord’s Special to the News
Rev. Michel Dubord recently retired after serving as rector of St. John the Baptist Anglican Church in Richmond for 18 years. He and his wife Kathy were overwhelmed by the outpouring of good wishes and thanks which they received from the church and community in the time leading up to the retirement. The following is a note from Rev. Michel and Kathy: “Now that Kathy and I are finally settled in our temporary “new home” in Carleton Place, we cannot move forward without first thanking all of you very kind and generous Richmond folk. My 18 years serving at St. John’s Anglican Church was absolutely wonderful. I cannot say enough good things about the dedication, faithfulness and hospitality that
is engrained in the life of the St. John’s congregation, many whose friendship I will cherish for a lifetime. As for the village of Richmond itself, I will always consider Richmond my second home. I have met some of the nicest people and have worked with and alongside many who are simply committed in ensuring that Richmond be the very best that it can be – a village that models a vision of “neighbourhood” that is genuinely welcoming, attentive to the needs of all its residents and inspires creativity, personal growth and community engagement. Once again, thank you for all the cards, the gifts, the words of appreciation and support expressed – we have been overwhelmed by your love and will be forever grateful. Blessing to all! Rev. Michel and Kathy Dubord

Bethany Walker of South Carleton has returned from trip to Costa Rica Bethany Walker Special to the News
My name is Bethany Walker and I am a 17 year old student at South Carleton High School in Richmond. I will be providing articles to the Stittsville News in the coming months about events that are taking place around the school. I love to write and have joined South Carleton’s Writers Club that meets on a weekly basis. As for myself, I play flute in the South Carleton band and I also play piano as an outof-school activity. I enjoy travelling and just recently returned from my first cross-cultural trip to Costa Rica. It was a three week trip with 11 other teens involved. On the trip, we spent the first week volunteering at a camp located southeast of San Jose. A youth group of local teens attended the camp and we ran a series of outdoor activities for them. We also looked after the cleaning of the camp. The best part about this first week was exSUBMITTED periencing the high ropes course and zipline. South Carleton High School student Bethany Walker is high in the forest on a zipline On the second week, we hiked from the during her recent trip with a group of other youth to Costa Rica. camp to a beach at Manuel Antonio. But it
was no simple little hike. It was a physically challenging hike involving over 58 kilometers in five days. We hiked down a mountain in the rain forest and each night we stayed with farm owners who lived along the trail. Spending a day at the destination beach as a reward for this hike proved to be an amazing day. It was all a great learning experience as we learned, for example, that the most popular Costa Rican meal is called Gallo Pinto which is basically rice and beans. We ate that meal almost every day while we were in Costa Rica. The final week of our trip was spent in San Jose working with an organization called Education Plus. Its primary goal is to have all local children attend school. To achieve this goal, Education Plus provides families with financial support or health care if needed. Many of the children involved come from broken homes. Indeed, it was shocking to hear about some of the situations in which these children are involved. But it is also surprising just how happy these children appear to be despite the troubles in their lives at home. This trip to costa Rica was an amazing experience, providing an opportunity to learn about another culture and to build strong relationships with the children with whom we worked and with my teammates.

Retired city councillor drops out of Carleton riding race Erin McCracken erin.mccracken@metroland.com
Retired Osgoode Ward councillor Doug Thompson has dropped out of the race to become the Progressive Conservative candidate for the new provincial riding of Carleton. “I’m the former candidate for the nomination in the riding of Carleton,” Thompson told Metroland Media. “Honestly, it’s kind of hard to say that because I was quite excited about the possibility of winning the nomination and being the MPP for the area.” Even within hours of announcing his decision on Sept. 14, Thompson still believed he would have done “an excellent job” as an MPP. But after much “soul searching,” the 70-year-old Metcalfe resident, who served as mayor of Osgoode Township prior to amalgamation, decided to stop campaigning for the position. It was the founding meeting of the new PC riding association on Aug. 31 that set those wheels in motion. Thompson put forward his name for the nomination in May, and he and his team began selling party memberships in anticipation of the riding association’s founding meeting on Aug. 31. He said there were some miscommunications about the rules to submit new party memberships before that meeting, which he also said was not well organized and badly timed since many people were still away on summer vacation. “I don’t think it was hijacked by anyone,” Thompson said of the meeting “It was just poorly run. It’s just the optics of the whole thing … just terrible.” While knocking on doors during his campaign, Thompson said he also heard people had reservations about party leader Patrick Brown. “People were a little upset about things, and so I hear that at the door,” he said. Thompson said he also learned that another candidate’s supporters raised questions about his age and suggested he would only seek one term, that he’s actually a Liberal and doesn’t spend too much time in Toronto, where Queen’s Park is located. “You take all of this together, and the way the meeting was handled, and I thought to myself, ‘I’m not sure I’m really interested in this type of behaviour and actions,’” Thompson said. Age had nothing to do with his decision. “If it was I wouldn’t have entered the race,” he said. Thompson wasn’t the only one disappointed that his campaign has come to an end.

Mom 2 Mom Sale John Curry
john.curry@metroland.com
The Mom 2 Mom Sale in Richmond this Saturday, Oct. 1 will have a Star Wars flavour. That’s because a number of Star Wars characters will be in attendance as the 501st Capital City Garrison is providing a Storm Trooper and Royal Guard for the sale. Besides these Star Wars characters, this Mom 2 Mom Sale has attracted an array of local vendors with a wide variety of offerings. It’s also a Mom 2 Mom Sale that will see organizer Shannon Wallace of Stittsville selling her custom made children’s aprons, Halloween trick or treat bags that she made and handmade dog biscuits. In addition, Emily MacLellan, another Stittsville teen who is in the same Pathfinder Unit with Shannon, will be there, selling hand-crafted neck warmers and children’s Halloween costumes. But this is not all! This Mom 2 Mom Sale will also include a bake sale as Shannon is busy baking up a storm so that pies, cookies and squares will all be available for purchase at the event, all great for upcoming Thanksgiving get-togethers. There will also be Minty Girl Guide Cookies on sale as well. This Mom 2 Mom Sale will happen this Saturday, Oct. 1 from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the St. John’s Anglican Church Hall at 67 Fowler Street in Richmond. There will be a $2 en-

trance fee for adults while children will be admitted for free. Vendors on hand at this Mom 2 Mom Sale will include the sale of custom pucks and iphone cases, local photographer Dadsnap, a scrollsaw artist, Scentsy and 31 Gift representatives, a reiki master, a jewellery artist and a local bed and bath product creator. Pre-used kids items will also be available. In addition to these vendors, there will be a Fairy Reader who will sit down with a little one and explain to her how the fairies work around her and how she can help out these fairies by doing good deeds at home. This Mom 2 Mom Sale is being held in support of Shannon Wallace’s Me 2 We Trip to Nicaragua in July 2017. In addition, her fellow Pathfinder Emily MacLellan is planning a 2017 Me 2 We Trip to India. Both Shannon and Emily were inspired when their Pathfinder Unit attended We Day in Ottawa. If the weather is good on Saturday, Oct. 1, some tables will be set up outside the hall to provide a setting where you can enjoy some snacks and a drink while you socialize with friends and neighbours. Me 2 We Trips like Shannon’s upcoming trip to Nicaragua and Emily’s trip to India tend to launch for youth a lifelong journey in making a difference. These trips tend to be life changing for the youth involved and provide an opportunity for a youth to volunteer on a development project such as building a school.

A February visit to a wet Rosemoor Garden John Curry john.curry@metroland.com
Rosemoor Garden, one of four major gardens run by the Royal Horticultural Society in England, attracts thousands of visitors every year. But you wouldn’t know it from the bevy of photographs of Rosemoor Garden shown by John Soar in his presentation on Rosemoor Garden at the Sept. 20 meeting of the Stittsville Goulbourn Horticultural Society in Stittsville. In all of the photographs which John showed of the numerous gardens, pathways and features at Rosemoor Garden, there was only one, that’s right, just one, which showed the presence of any visitors on the site. All of the others showed scenes around the 26 hectare (65 acres) garden that featured flowers, plants, pathways, landscaped areas and more but all without any visitors in them. Now that does not mean that Rosemoor Garden has suddenly become unpopular with visitors. Rather, it had everything to do about the time of year in which John Soar and his wife Ann visited Rosemoor Garden. Their visit happened in February of this year when Rosemoor Garden was just coming out of its winter sleep. There were daffodils blooming and the dogwoods were colourful but there were no leaves on the trees, the rose bushes in the rose garden had not yet been pruned and it was wet, wet, with a lot of rain causing such wet conditions that there was not much straying off the winding Rosemoor Garden pathways because the adjacent ground was so waterlogged and spongy. But while it was still very early spring with not much in bloom in the garden and with few other visitors around, John and Ann Soar were able to tour around at will as they stayed for two weeks right on the site, in a unit in a house right on the grounds. John noted that the experience at Rosemoor Garden in February with few others there made it feel as if the garden was his own garden but with the added benefit that he did not have to do any work in it. John had seen the offer of an accommodation special on the grounds of Rosemoor Garden in the Royal Horticultural Society magazine which he followed up on, resulting in the two week stay on the grounds with full access to the garden. With the grass green from all of the rain and daffodils, crocus and dogwoods all showing their colours, Rosemoor Garden in February was not totally devoid of colour. And no leaves on the trees meant that the trees in the garden, specially the giant oaks, could be enjoyed for their shape and sculptured branch structure rather than any plethora of leaves on the branches. “It’s a very different garden to visit in February,� John told those at the Horticultural Society meeting in Stittsville. But while different, it was still an intriguing place. Rosemoor Garden has a vast collection of holly plants including numerous cultivars and species. “It’s more hollys that you ever knew existed,� John observed. This proliferation of holly in Rosemoor Garden is the result of an interest which its founder, Lady Jane Palmer, developed after meeting renowned plant collector and gardener Collingwood Ingram (1880-1981) while on a trip to Spain to recover from the measles. It was Collingwood’s enthusiasm and inspiration which began Lady Jane’s interest and love in plants and plant collecting. This was the beginnings of the Rosemoor Garden of today. After developing her original eight acre garden started in 1959, it was in 1988 that Lady Ann gave the garden along with an additional 32 acres of land to the Royal Horticultural Society. The Society later purchased 37.5 hectares of surrounding woodland to add to the Rosemoor Garden property. Over the course of their stay at Rosemoor Garden,
John and Ann Soar saw all of its many areas and sections including the formal garden area with its winter garden, the rose garden, the elliptical garden, the foliage garden and the herb garden, among others. They got to walk along the pathways of Rosemoor Garden’s sweeping lawns and other attractions like its arboretum and vegetable garden. Everything grown and harvested from this vegetable garden is served in the restaurant that is on the site. Of course, in February, there wasn’t much growing in the vegetable garden’s raised beds. The on-site visitor centre includes not only a restaurant but a shop, offices, an event centre, a lecture room and a plant centre. Although Rosemoor Garden employs 20 full time gardeners as well as some trainees, John and Ann did not see much of these gardeners at work during their stay there since the various beds were just too wet for any work to be done on them. There are about 50 volunteers who also help out at Rosemoor Garden. Did John and Ann enjoy their extended visit to Rosemoor Garden? Well, in a response to a question about whether he would go back again at that time of year, John left no doubt as to his feelings: “In a flash,� he said. The Rosemoor Garden in North Devon in England is a public display garden, one of four major gardens run by the Royal Horticultural Society. In 2009 Rosemoor Garden, which opened to the public in 1990, saw nearly 130,000 visitors. The garden has two very distinct areas. One area is the original garden developed by Lady Anne which is a diverse collection of plants in an informal setting. The other part of the area is the “new� garden which is a formal decorative area in a woodland setting. They are joined by an underpass which goes under a roadway that runs between them. This underpass is the only pedestrian connection between the two areas. It was Lady Anne Berry (later Palmer), daughter of the late Robert Horace Walpole, the fifth Earl of Orford, who created the original eight acre garden in 1959 and developed it over the following 30 years. The garden was first opened to the public in 1967 and with an associated nursery became known for rare and unusual plants. By the 1980’s the garden was attracting a significant
number of visitors. It was in 1988 that Lady Anne (then Palmer) gave the garden to the Royal Horticultural Society along with an additional 32 acres of land. In the mid 1990’s, 37.5 hectares of woodland surrounding the site was added to the garden. The Royal Horticultural Society was founded in 1804 in London, gaining the “Royal� name designation in 1861.
The Royal Horticultural Society states its purpose as being the encouragement and improvement of the science, art and practice of horticulture in all its branches. It promotes horticulture through flower shows. In 2013 the Royal Horticultural Society had over 414,000 members.

Marking International Day of Peace with pinwheels Special to the News
Richmond’s Girl Guides marked International Day of Peace on Wednesday, Sept. 21 by creating a public art display at Memorial Park in Richmond. The Guides made pinwheels, that children’s toy that spins when blown, and then placed them on both sides of a sign proclaiming Sept. 21 as International Day of Peace. The International Day of Peace was
established in 1981 by the United Nations General Assembly. Then, in 2001, the General Assembly of the United Nations voted unanimously to designate the International Day of Peace as a period of non-violence and cease fire. The United Nations urges all nations and people to honour a cessation of hostilities during the International Day of Peace and to commemorate the Day through promoting public awareness of
the Day and issues related to peace. An International Day of Peace Challenge urged people to take action to promote or create peace and then to share it on social media at #PeaceDayChallenge to inspire others and to show the power of global engagement. One of the possible ways to promote peace was to construct a symbol of peace or to create a piece of public art to raise awareness of the International Day of
Peace. Richmond’s Guides chose to make pinwheels and then display them at Memorial Park around a sign promoting Sept. 21 as the International Day of Peace. Memorial Park in Richmond is the site of Richmond’s cenotaph honouring those who fought and died for Canada in wartime. It is the site of Richmond’s annual Remembrance Day ceremony on Nov. 11.

With their harvest of squash from an 1860’s garden planted as part of a Children’s Festival last May celebrating the 150th anniversary of St. Thomas Anglican Church in Stittsville are Sunday School youngsters (front row, from left) Noah McMillan, Anna Stipetic and Logan McMillan and (back row, from left) Merilee Clarke of the Sunday School, Kaitlyn Harding, Sophia Pierce, Junia Chapman, Isabelle Chapman, Sarah Smith and Emma Passmore of the Sunday School.
The 150th anniversary year of St. Thomas Anglican Church in Stittsville has been one of plenty, quite literally. Last May, as part of the Children’s Festival which the church held as one of its 150th anniversary celebrations, the Sunday School children of the church planted an 1860’s-era garden. Well, it is now harvesting time for this garden and the children filled up a wheelbarrow with the squash which they harvested from this garden. And the children shared this squash with others, delivering some of the squash to the Stittsville Food Bank.

City of Ottawa Stittsville ward councillor Shad Qadri is looking for nominations of outstanding volunteers in the community.

These six outstanding volunteers from Stittsville will be among 150 volunteers from across the city who will receive the Sovereign’s Medal for Volunteers in 2017 which is Canada’s 150th anniversary year. For this anniversary year, the city of Ottawa is partnering with the Office of the Governor General of Canada to recognize 150 SUBMITTED outstanding volunteers in the St. Thomas Anglican Church Sunday School youngsters Sophia Pierce (left) and Linden Pierce (right, foreground) city. hand over some of the squash grown by the Sunday School children in a garden celebrating the 150th anniversary of The Sovereign’s Medal for the church to representatives of the Stittsville Food Bank (from left) Jo-Anne Ilkiw, Ella Mohr and Kathy Dennison.

TRIMBLE
Eileen Winnifred (neé McCracken)
(July 16, 1927 - September 24, 2016) With great sorrow, the family of Margery Montreuil (nee Arthur), of Carleton Place and Mississippi Lake, advises that she passed away peacefully, with her husband and family at her side, at Fairview Manor in Almonte, on Saturday, September 24, 2016. She was in her 90th year. A loving wife, mother, grandmother and greatgrandmother, she will be sadly missed by her husband Jean Montreuil and her children and their partners, John Montreuil (Donna), Michael Montreuil (Brenda), Geoffrey Montreuil, Madelaine Tuttle (Roger), Tom Montreuil (Sharon) and Beth Ellis (Kevan). She loved and delighted in the lives and exploits of the families of her nine grandchildren – Angie (Dean Vennor), Eireann Montreuil (Dusty), Jamie Montreuil (Shawna), Alison (Jean Francois Gallant), Victoria Tuttle (David Hallam), Stephen Tuttle (Libby), Shannon Tuttle (Jesse Smith), Cody Montreuil, Hannah Ellis. She will be remembered and sorely missed by her great-grandchildren – Corbin, Gavin and Paige Vennor, Makenna Whetung, Myriam, Emma, Amy, Charlotte and Gabriella Gallant, Levi Smith. Loving “Auntie Marge” will be remembered by her many nieces and nephews and extended family and friends. Born in Ottawa in 1927, to Hilton and Margaret Arthur, Margery enjoyed a full and adventurous life, with international travels, but truly enjoyed her time with her family close by, at the summer home, on Mississippi Lake. She enjoyed a good cup of tea, classical music and her extensive collection of shamrocks, reflecting her family’s Irish heritage. Margery had enjoyed the ongoing love and company of her sister, Joan Frappier (Ian - deceased) of Temagami and Don Arthur (June) of Stittsville. She was predeceased by her parents, and her sister, Elaine Holmes (Jose) of Ottawa. The family extends their heartfelt thanks to Dr. Susie Quackenbush, Pam Murphy and the nursing staff of the AGH – Fairview Manor for their continual care and compassion throughout the past year. Visitation took place at the Alan R. Barker Funeral Home, 19 McArthur Avenue, Carleton Place, on Tuesday, September 27, 2016 from 11:00 a.m. until the funeral service in the Chapel at 1:00 p.m. Interment followed at St. James Anglican Cemetery, Carleton Place. In lieu of flowers, donations to The Arthritis Society would be appreciated. www.barkerfh.com

The Lord called His earthly angel and her daughters’ adored Mom, Eileen, to take flight, heaven bound, at daybreak on Tuesday, August 30, 2016. Her daughters’ hearts are broken once more after losing their treasured Dad, Earl, just fifteen months ago. Eileen has joined Earl and their predeceased son, Lawrence, and daughter, Myrla, to share eternity together praising their Lord and Saviour.

CLEANING / JANITORIAL
After a courageous battle with cancer, Roy peacefully passed away on September 16th, 2016 at Elisabeth Bruyere Hospital, surrounded by his loving family. Beloved husband of Anne (Skube) for 57 years and loving dad of David (Jeanine Demmler) and Dawn (Gary Hermer). Cherished gramps to Julian and Simone Cameron, Ella and Amy Hermer. Roy will also be fondly remembered by his brother-in-law, Ladd (Marilyn) and the late Stan (Helen) and his nieces, Lori (Garth), Susan (Steve) and Kathy, his favourite nephew Mike (Laureen) and his great-nieces, Lauren, Megan, Jill, Madeline and his greatnephews, Matt, Adam, Jake and Ryan. Roy was born in Gore Bay, Manitoulin Island. He attended Royal Military College and graduated from the University of Western Ontario. His 38 year teaching career was spent mostly at Kirkland Lake High School, retiring as Department Head, Geography in 1989. Roy was an avid reader. Other hobbies included cottage life and building, nature and the outdoors. Anne and Roy moved to Kanata in 2007, closer to family. Roy will be remembered for his sharp wit, unique sense of humour and love of family. We are grateful for the care that was provided by CCAC, Queensway Carleton and Elisabeth Bruyere Hospitals.

Proud grandfather of Tynesha, Justis, and Alexander. Survived by his sister Dorothy “Dodie” Cathcart (Moe Desgagne). Douglas will be missed by Barbara.

Wayne H. Stuart October 31st, 1945 - September 2nd, 2016 A gathering was held on Saturday, September 17th, 2016. Wayne’s three loving ladies shared their sadness with some immediate family members, close friends, neighbours and former collegues. Such a well lived, adventurous life was obvious in the photo’s displayed throughout Briana and Shawn’s home. A flight helmet and a flying suit from the Cold War Era, an Air Force Blue Officers’ Hat and a Blue UN Beret bore witness to Wayne’s challenging roles over his 27 year career with the Forces. Our 14 years of sailing from Gananoque brought memories for some as they were the lucky ones taken out on Freestyle. Skiing photos covered the enjoyment started 42 years ago as the newly married couple started skiing lessons. Donations in Wayne’s memory could be directed to the Heart & Stroke Foundation, Foundations for PSP/CBD and Related brain Diseases and / or Skiing for the Disabled. Ashes from the beautiful red leafed urn will be scattered at later dates. Grateful that our lives became entwined for the years that we shared. Our Love, Mary, Meghan and Briana. CLR710264

Members of the Stittsville District Lions Club will be at both Brown’s Your Independent Grocer and at Giant Tiger in Stittsville this Saturday, Oct. 1 raising funds for the Canadian National Institute for the Blind (CNIB). The Lions Club members will be providing “white cane pins” in return for donations to the CNIB. The Lions members will be at Brown’s Your Independent Grocer on Stittsville Main Street this Saturday, Oct. 1 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Lions members will be at Giant Tiger in the Jackson Trails Centre plaza at the corner of Stittsville Main Street and Hazeldean Road from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. CNIB is a registered charity providing community-based support to Canadians
who are blind or partially sighted. Each year Canadians who are blind or partially sighted receive almost one million hours of support from CNIB. It is estimated that every minute, three Canadians turn to CNIB seeking information and support to overcome the challenges of vision loss. CNIB was founded in 1918 to serve veterans returning home blind from World War One. CNIB today employs about 850 professionals across Canada, working in the fields of rehabilitation services and support, library services, research, advocacy, public education, accessible design consulting, fundraising and administration. This staff is supported by more than 10,000 volunteers. Lions Clubs like the Stittsville District Lions Club have had a long commitment to help the blind and visually impaired, ever since Helen Keller challenged Lions to become involved in helping the blind and visually impaired.

SENIORS & NEWS
MARY COOK Memories As she did every evening after the kitchen had been redded up, Mother was at the end of the kitchen table with her diaries and scrapbooks spread out before her. I was glad my sister Audrey decided she didn’t have time to spend with me going through the Eaton’s catalogue. It had just arrived in the mail, and even though I could spend hours thumbing through the pages, that night I had other things on my mind. I looked around the kitchen. From where I sat at the other end of the table, I saw Father in the rocking chair as usual, with his feet up on a cushion on the oven door. The Ottawa Farm Journal was on his lap, and I could see it wouldn’t be long before sleep would win out, and the paper would slip to the floor. And then his pipe would fall to

his chest and the soft snoring would start. My sister Audrey was at the old treadle Singer sewing machine trying her best to make a blouse out of a cotton dress that had come in the hand-me-down box from Aunt Lizzie in Regina. It was important that I place everyone in the kitchen that night, because I was out to prove what my friend Velma said was, in fact, true. She said mothers had this rare talent where they could see everything going on around them, without turning their heads or raising they eyes from whatever they were doing. I had long since ruled out that Mother had eyes in the back of her head like my brother Emerson swore up and down was a fact! Having examined her head carefully on more than one occasion I
knew this was just another one of my brother’s crazy ideas. I was more inclined to believe my friend Velma, who was devoutly religious, a Lutheran, and said God have given mothers this special talent, so that they could keep everyone in line without as much as actually seeing them in action. That night, I was determined to see if Velma had her facts straight. My three brothers were playing Old Maid at the bake table, and that meant trouble. I knew it wouldn’t take long before there would be a roaring-eyed fight, like there was just about every night. Earl said Emerson was cheating. Everett yelled, “Ya, cheating.” And then it happened right before my eyes! Mother didn’t look up from the diary she was working on, and said to Emer-

son, “Put that card back in the deck, young man, or you’re off to bed.” She hadn’t as much as raised an eyebrow! And then she asked Audrey to get Father’s pipe off his chest because it was just about to burn a hole in his plaid shirt. And she didn’t even turn her head! Well, that tore it for me. I couldn’t wait to get to school the next day to tell Velma she was absolutely right. Mothers did have this talent for knowing what was going on without as much as raising an eyebrow. And they didn’t have eyes in the back of their heads either! And I started to wonder if just maybe Mother could tell what I was thinking too. That thought scared the daylights out of me, and I made up my mind that whenever I was in the same room with her, I would try my utmost to have the purest of thoughts in my head. And I wondered if, when I grew up, I too would have the rare talent of knowing exactly what was going on around me without benefit of raising an eyebrow, just because I too, had become a mother. It was a lot to think about back then when I was six years old. Interested in an electronic version of Mary’s books?

Museum’s artefacts John Curry john.curry@metroland.com
The Goulbourn Museum received over 38 new artefact donations during the past summer. These donations included several photographs of former Goulbourn mayor the late Betty Hill as well as a vintage poster from the Richmond 150th anniversary celebrations in 1968. Other donations included a “Bewieber” t-shirt honouring Olympic gold medal winning wrestler Erica Wiebe of Stittsville; a collection of land deeds for Constantine Maguire, a shoemaker who settled in early Richmond; and a family album which features a number of hand-tinted cabinet cards including a rare photograph taken by Kate Wood, one of two female photographers active in Ottawa at the end of the 19th century. Another donation involved three Victorian charcoal portraits of Margaret McLinton (nee Faulkner), Hugh McLinton and their son Peter. The portraits were found while renovating the summer kitchen of an old farmhouse. The Goulbourn Museum is located at 2064 Huntley Road at Stanley’s Corners just south of Stittsville. Stittsville Main Street becomes Huntley Road at Stanley’s Corners. The Goulbourn Museum is open all year round on Wednesdays to Sundays from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. Admission is free.

This week’s puzzle answers in next week’s issue
Here’s How It Works: Sudoku puzzles are formatted as a 9x9 grid, broken down into nine 3x3 boxes. To solve a sudoku, the numbers 1 through 9 must fill each row, column and box. Each number can appear only once in each row, column and box. You can figure out the order in which the numbers will appear by using the numeric clues already provided in the boxes. The more numbers you name, the easier it gets to solve the puzzle!
ARIES – Mar 21/Apr 20 Aries, certain feelings may not be easy to convey, but try to find the words this week. It’s important to let your feelings be known, and others are waiting on you to speak up. TAURUS – Apr 21/May 21 Taurus, coworkers respond favorably to a proposal you worked hard on. Allow this professional momentum to pay dividends outside of the office as well. GEMINI – May 22/Jun 21 Gemini, mixed signals lead to a bit of confusion. It’s nothing you can’t handle if you backtrack and remedy the original situation, just provide yourself ample time to set things right. CANCER – Jun 22/Jul 22 Be extra sensitive to the plights or concerns of others this week, Cancer. Some around you could benefit from some empathy and understanding. LEO – Jul 23/Aug 23 Leo, now might be a great time to take a step back and enjoy a little breathing room. Look at things from a different perspective, and you might be amazed at your new outlook. VIRGO – Aug 24/Sept 22 Virgo, many things in your life are vying for your attention. It’s difficult to choose just one, but you will have to do so this week. If necessary, reach out to a friend for assistance.
LIBRA – Sept 23/Oct 23 Libra, your values and those of a loved one may clash from time to time. Some polite and intelligent discourse might be just what the doctor ordered this week. SCORPIO – Oct 24/Nov 22 Reactions come swiftly and strongly this week, Scorpio. You either love or hate something, and things may be very black and white in your world in the days ahead. SAGITTARIUS – Nov 23/Dec 21 Sagittarius, try to separate your personal life from your professional activities this week. This may require being a little more quiet and introspective than usual, but do your best. CAPRICORN – Dec 22/Jan 20 Capricorn, let your feelings be heard if you feel underappreciated by someone close to you this week. Your loved one will appreciate your honesty and welcome your insight. AQUARIUS – Jan 21/Feb 18 A meaningful conversation with the right person may occur this week, Aquarius. It could mean a step in the right direction for you and help to further your career. PISCES – Feb 19/Mar 20 Pisces, your emotions are so strong this week that you may feel alienated from those closest to you. If so, make an effort to stay connected. 0929
