Mother, daughter travel to Montana for Bookfest john.curry@metroland.com

Eleven year old Kaeleigh Roxburgh of Stittsville and her mother Carrie travelled to Billings, Montana on the weekend of Oct. 3-4 to attend the annual High Plains Bookfest and Book Awards ceremony in Billings, Montana. They did this as a way of honouring Kaeleigh’s grandmother, the late Cheryl Chad whose children’s novel “Back to Batoche” was a finalist in the Bookfest competition. Little did they realize that their trip to Billings would turn into a celebration but this is what happened as it was announced at the Saturday night High Plains Bookfest awards banquet that not only was “Back to Batoche” a finalist in the competition but that it was the winner of the

2015 Best Children’s Book award. Kaeleigh accepted the award on behalf of her late grandmother, receiving congratulations from dignitaries such as the mayor Billings and other authors. Kaeleigh even had the opportunity to autograph several copies of the book, not only because it was written by her late grandmother but also because her namesake is one of the main characters in the book. Kaeleigh’s late grandmother, Cheryl Chad, had a lifelong dream of being an author. She worked in the federal government in Ottawa but took numerous writing workshops and in retirement, she became a published author with her children’s novel “Back to Batoche” which was published in May 2014. It was just after the book was published that Cheryl was diagnosed with an aggressive form of cancer and she passed away six weeks later. Although “Back to Batoche” is historical fiction, Cheryl did a lot of research so that her portrayal of Metis life, the Battle of Batoche and accounts of Louis Riel and Gabriel Dumont and other Metis leaders were accurate.

Lands in Kanata !! to numerous rib fests over the years but this BBQ put them all to shame. We started with the potato skins, I thought I had gone to heaven. The order was huge and filled with the best pulled pork I have ever tasted. I then had the brisket and Mom had the ribs and both plates were absolutely divine. The fries were excellent, the BBQ sauce was out of this world, the coleslaw great but the beans, the beans, the beans. They were better than mine and I always thought nobody could top mine.”

Big Bone BBQ is huge on taste! The brothers are proud to be number one in ribs and wings. “It’s what we do, and we are passionate about it. I think southern BBQ has grown exponentially here in Canada, also in northern US. You see it all over.” Big Bone new Kanata location is an example of the growing popularity for southern cuisine. “I was approached by Manny Zamani and Andrea Mongeon who came to the GTA to visit family and were interested in opening a location in Ottawa,” explains Tim. “They shared the passion for what I did, and that made it interesting and exciting to move into the Ottawa area. We visited the city and decided that Kanata is where we wanted to be. It has a comfortable, community atmosphere.” The new franchise store owners have been working hard to learn the secret of Big Bone success. “I have been in this over 23 years, I am an original pioneer. I am now spreading my experience through Manny and Andrea into the Ottawa area. As much as it is a franchise, it is a very individual cuisine that requires time to learn and create the ultimate meal.” There is something for every taste at Big Bone Ribs and Wicked Wings. Having friends over? Choose from five special party packs guaranteed to please any hungry gathering. Party Packs feature your choice of Full Racks, Wicked Wings, Pulled Pork, Beans, Coleslaw, Cornbread, Large Fries and Tub of Sauce.

We finish them on the BBQ and glaze them our signature BBQ sauce. Taste them and taste the difference!

No longer do you have to wait for Ribfest to get your fill of the most delicious, mouth-watering BBQ ribs and wicked chicken wings. Welcome to your new BBQ home – Big Bone Ribs and Wicked Chicken Wings, now open at 701 Eagleson Rd. in Kanata. Brothers Tim and Lee Rombos have a winning combination of spices and highest quality meats to elevate the Big Bone experience. After more than 20 years of satisfying appetites in the greater Toronto region and central Ontario, the duo is proud to offer their exemplary meals and service to Ottawa ribs and chicken lovers. “We are very pleased to have our latest outlet in Kanata to serve the Ottawa area,” says Tim Rombos. “Our family and management team have been devoted to barbecuing the best in Southern BBQ for more than 20 years. We are the original pioneers of this great cuisine in the Great White North.” It all started at a chance meeting with some smokehouse folks from Oklahoma. “I’ve been a rib fan for a long time. I was in the bar and restaurant business in downtown Toronto and wanted to open a rib restaurant in a suburban environment. I met some amazing talented people from Oklahoma at a Ribfest about 23 years ago. It was the first time I saw someone smoking ribs. Boom, I was hooked!” Tim created his original BBQ menu over 22 years ago, one of the first in Canada. “Nobody knew what pulled pork was,” he recalls. “It was a novelty at first. Smoked flavouring took time for people find the taste.” Big Bone has earned its famous reputation one rack at a time. “For years we competed in Ribfests across Ontario and have won over 50 BBQ Championships for ribs, chicken and sauces. We won Canada’s biggest Ribfest in Burlington Ontario twice for ribs and once for sauce. People waited over two hours to buy our ribs. It means a lot to win a people’s choice award. More importantly, we have always been driven to provide complete satisfaction to our loyal customers. Our locations are as unique as the great communities we are a part of.” Succulent barely describes the sumptuous meals and generous servings at Big Bone. One customer summed up the experience this way. “I took my mother to Big Bone BBQ after I had been stalking the location ever since they put up the open soon sign. I have been

The story involves three children, named and modelled after Cheryl’s grandchildren Kaeleigh, Max and Liam Roxburgh, who find a pocket watch which magically transports them back to 1885 and the Battle of Batoche. It is historical time travel. In the book, Kaeleigh, Max and Liam are transported, thanks to the magical pocket watch, back in time to the eve of the Battle of Batoche in 1885 where they experience first hand what life was like for the Metis in Batoche as Louis Riel and Gabriel Dumont led their people in the defense of their land, their homes and their way of life. In writing the book, Cheryl talked a lot to Max who is Kaeleigh’s older brother to try to ensure that the book reflected how a 12 year old would tell the story. That’s because the story is told through Max’s eyes and voice. While Max is the narrator for the story, Kaeleigh’s role in the book is being the voice of reason, warning about why something may get the trio in John Curry/Metroland trouble. Kaeleigh’s twin brother Liam Carrie Roxburgh, left, and her daughter Kaeleigh Roxburgh, right, of Stittsville hold the has a comic relief role in the book. The book’s description “About the finalist and winner’s plaques which they accepted at the High Plains Bookfest in Billings, Montana, on behalf of author the late Cheryl Chad who is Kaeleigh’s grandmother. Cheryl author”, written in 2014, describes Cheryl Chad as follows: “Cherl Chad Chad’s book “Back To Batoche” won the award for 2015 Best Children’s Book.

It’s a hard life for feral cats. Domesticated cats, if abandoned and living long enough outdoors, can become feral. Feral cats are homeless, “wild”, untamed cats, often born outside and having had little or no contact with humans. Ferals often live in groups called colonies. It is estimated there are millions of feral cats in North America. Some are lucky to have volunteer caretakers feed and care for them, at great expense to themselves – maybe someone in your neighbourhood. For some ferals, food is scarce. They get sick, frostbitten, attacked and injured or killed – and no one knows or cares. Fortunately, a Trap-Neuter-Return program reduces the feral population humanely and gradually; but the whole colony needs to be vaccinated too, and then managed under the care of a dedicated cat colony caretaker. Kittens and not-so-wild cats can sometimes be adopted into homes. Wilder but healthy cats are returned to their colonies.

Spaying/neutering and veterinary care of feral and semi-wild cats is expensive.

Your donation will help care for these cats. To donate and/or request more information, please contact:

Batoche is now a National Historic Site. While there, they saw the pocket watch which was on display and which served as the time machine in Cheryl Chad’s book. They also visited the gift shop there where the book “Back to Batoche” is currently a best seller. Kaeleigh admits that she used to be not much of a fan of history but now, as a result of her late grandmother’s book, she likes history. She also finds the “time travel” aspect of the book interesting. Proceeds generated by the sale of “Back to Batoche” are being put in a special account to help Cheryl Chad’s five grandchildren with future expenses related to university. This includes the $500 in prize money which came with winning the High Plains Bookfest Book Award. And there will be a sequel to this award-winning book. It is another historical novel that Cheryl Chat had about two-thirds completed at the time of her death. It is a story about the driving of the last spike of the Canadian Pacific Railway at Craigellachie, B.C. in Nov. 1885 as told from the viewpoint of an unknown young boy who is seen in the historic and now famous photograph which was taken of Donald Alexander Smith driving in the so-called “last spike” to complete Canada’s first transcontinental railroad.

The family is now going to complete this sequel and tell yet another chapter of Canada’s history via a Cheryl Chad historical children’s novel. The High Plains Bookfest and Book Awards in Billings, Montana is a book competition which draws numerous nominations in various categories. The winners are selected by a panel of independent judges. Billings, Montana is the largest city in the state of Montana, with a 2013 population of 109,059, making it the only city in Montana with over 100,000 people. It is a trade and distribution centre for most of the state of Montana as well as northern Wyoming and the western portions of North Dakota and South Dakota.

PUBLIC CONSULTATION Policy Update for Pupil Accommodation Review Process The Ottawa-Carleton District School Board currently undertakes school accommodation reviews in accordance with Policy P118.PLG, School Accommodation Studies. The Ministry of Education has recently released an updated Pupil Accommodation Review Guideline (March 2015) and requires school boards to amend their policy documents to incorporate the requirements of the new guideline. These changes came about as a result of comments provided to the Ministry of Education from parents, schools/communities and school boards. In an effort to develop a more streamlined and efficient accommodation review process, policy amendments include minimum standards required to ensure that valuable school and community input is heard when addressing the need for the movement of students, relocation of programming and/or the consolidation of facilities.

Around Christmas Parade of Lights on Saturday, Nov. 28 Stittsville Special to the News

….The annual Remembrance Day service hosted by the Stittsville Branch 618 of the Royal Canadian Legion will take place on Wednesday, Nov. 11 at 2 p.m. at the cenotaph in front of the Johnny Leroux Stittsville Community Arena. A parade of veterans, armed forces personnel, Scouts and Guides, service club members and others will leave the Stittsville Legion Hall on Stittsville Main Street at 1:30 p.m., arriving at the cenotaph just before 2 p.m. There will be an open house at the Stittsville Legion Hall immediately following the cenotaph service and the parade back to the Legion Hall….Deborah Coyne, the Green Party candidate in the riding of Carleton in the upcoming federal election, was present at the official opening of the new Rotary Peace Park and labyrinth at Bell Park on Thursday afternoon, Oct. 8 ….Sympathy is extended to Danny Asirvatham on the death of his wife Marina on Monday morning, Oct. 12. Funeral details are not known at publication time….

Saturday, Nov. 28 will be when the Christmas season will really start in Stittsville. That’s when decorated and lighted floats and entries, expected to be about 60 to 65 as in other years, will travel along Stittsville Main Street in the annual Christmas Parade of Lights. Already there are 15 confirmed entries with five of them being brandnew entries, never having been seen in the parade before. The Stittsville Village Association (SVA), organizer of the annual event, is happy to answer any questions about the parade. Just email Trudy Smith at Trudy_smith@ sympatico.ca or Roxanne Bronsard at roxannebronsard@gmail.com .

There is no formal registration required to participate in this Parade of Lights but those thinking of participating are urged to contact Trudy or Roxanne just to let them know. There is no entry fee but participants are asked to consider making a donation to the Stittsville Food Bank. This year’s Parade of Lights will follow the usual route, starting at the Ottawa Carleton District School Board’s depot site on Stittsville Main Street across from Brown’s Your Independent Grocer and then moving along Stittsville Main Street to Carleton Cathcart Street where the parade disperses. Of course, there is more than just the parade as immediately following

Here’s Farley Month Special to the News

It’s Farley Month at the Stittsville Small Animal Clinic. The clinic’s celebrity patient, “Pumpkin” Saunders from Saunders Farm at Munster is challenging all fourlegged residents of Stittsville to visit the clinic on Stittsville Main Street in their best costume.

While there, make a donation to the Farley Foundation, receive a Farley gift and be entered in a special prize draw for four complimentary tickets to the Fright Fest at Saunders Farm. The Farley Foundation was established by the Ontario Veterinary Medical Association to assist seniors and disabled persons on limited in-

the parade, the Christmas lights on the trees at Village Square Park at the corner of Stittsville Main Street and Abbott Street are turned on for the season in a brief ceremony. Farm Boy will be providing cookies for those who attend this ceremony. CHEZ 106 radio personality Randall Moore will be the MC for this tree lighting ceremony. Long time Stittsville volunteer firefighter Brian Bedard has once again agreed to organize the floats at the starting line. The Parade of Lights can cost the SVA up to $1,500 given various expenses such as payment of a highland pipe marching band. Usually the Parade of Lights has a corporate sponsor

comes with pet care. In 2007, the Foundation extended its eligibility criteria to include women at risk who are entering shelters. Since 2002, the Farley Foundation has disbursed over two million dollars to assist over 5,700 people and their sick or injured pets. During Farley Month this October at the Stittsville Small Animal Clinic, a donation to the Farley Foundation will result in a nail trim, anal

to help with these expenses but so far no such sponsor has been signed up for this year’s parade. There is always a need for volunteers to look after the street barricades which are erected at side streets along the parade route to keep the parade route free from traffic. Volunteers must be 16 years of age or older, although those under 16 can volunteer if accompanied by a parade. One benefit of being such a volunteer is that such volunteers get a great view of the passing parade as they look after a traffic barricade right along Stittsville Main Street. Those interested in volunteering should contact Trudy or Roxanne as above.

gland expressions and ear cleanings. Each of these services earns a paw print on the clinic’s wall and a free gift. There’s also another possibility. Donate $10 or more and you will be entered in a draw to win one of the following prizes: an annual exam and vaccines for one dog and one cat; a fabulous spa day; and a complete blood profile for one dog and one dat. Such a donation will also earn a paw print on the clinic wall.

At the end of October, all paw prints will be entered into a final draw for a gift basket tailored to your pet. You can also visit the clinic’s Farley Foundation Page to make an online donation. The Stittsville Small Animal Clinic, located on Stittsville Main Street at Bell Street, is owned by Dr. Victoria Bennett. Veterinarians on hand include Dr. Adrienne Randall, Dr. Catherine MacKinnon and Dr. Liz Stevenson.

Imagine This: Family Friendly Entertainment that Parents Will Love Like many new parents finding themselves knee-deep in children’s music, four New Orleans friends found themselves at the end of their ropes when listening to their kids’ favourite music. Imagining that there could be family friendly music that wouldn’t drive parents crazy, they began gathering after their kids’ bedtimes to write songs about healthy snacks, playing catch and conquering childhood fears of bedtime, all set to music that parents could get behind. Critical acclaim for the Movers includes nods from Entertainment Weekly and The New York Times, which reported the Movers are “prized by many parents for non-condescending lyrics and music that evokes the Beastie Boys or Red Hot Chili Peppers more than Barney or the Wiggles.” Today line-ups at Movers’ shows stretch city blocks, they’ve got an animated series is in the works, and success with Disney Junior has cemented the Movers as a favourite with the juice box set, but it didn’t all come easy for these New Orleans natives.

When the levees broke after Hurricane Katrina, the disaster turned the Movers’ world upside down, and put their Disney dreams on hold. Three of the Movers lost their own homes, their studio was destroyed, but the storm proved to be a turning point for the band. While New Orleans doesn’t feature prominently in the television show, the crew felt strongly about keeping production local which presented unique challenges in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. Tasks as simple as locating required construction materials took twice the effort, items that would normally be easy to come by had to be shipped from neighbouring states. As the cast and crew begin the setup of a new studio, it was quickly apparent that the biggest asset the group had was the dedication of the crew. The Movers have filmed three seasons of their hit musicand-comedy series for Disney Junior and sales of Movers CDs, DVDs and merchandise are approaching a half million. Parenting Magazine praised the band’s “dash of rebellion” and songs that are “fresh and treacle-free.” National televi-

sion appearances include The View, Live with Regis Kelly, and Good Morning America. The Movers have also become a force to be reckoned with in the concert business. Their recent “In a Big Warehouse” tour attracted 150,000 fans and was one of Pollstar magazine’s top 100 tours of the year. They received stellar reviews from concertgoers thanks to the guys’ highly interactive music and winning ways with an audience. In addition to showcasing the Movers’ music, the Disney Junior series has introduced international audiences to the band members’ lively comedic talents. “We all love the classic comedy,” Durbin says. “Lots of people talk about the Monkees, which are an obvious reference for us. But really it’s Jerry Lewis, the Marx Brothers, Carol Burnett. Oldschool fun.” The Movers will be performing two shoes at Centrepointe Theatres October 24 (1 PM & 4 PM).

Government advertising must deliver substance

E

ach week more than 1,000 English and French community newspapers just like the one you are reading today go about the business of telling stories that matter to the communities they serve. We are at your rinks and schools. We are at your council meeting. We are at the scene when tragedy strikes. We celebrate your milestones. Our job is to cover your neighbourhood, warts and all. And we are good at it. We are in towns big and small. Independent research shows that more than 70 per cent of Canadians read their community paper. Despite our collective strength, ours is a medium easy to ignore. Because we focus on Canada one community at a time, we lack the sex appeal of other media. We’ve seen our share of federal govern-

ment advertising gradually erode over the years. Our regional and national associations have met with government MPs, opposition MPs, cabinet ministers and senior bureaucrats to promote our case. We are always met with courtesy and a promise that things will get better. Well things are not getting better. So despite it being contradictory to everything we believe in journalistically, the time has come to tell you. In short, the federal government is all but ignoring your community newspaper. We believe this means the federal government is ignoring you and your community’s right to be informed about programs and services offered by the Government of Canada. In the last fiscal year, the federal government spent $75 million on

O

ne of the refreshing things about this election is that no one is talking about declining the ballot. That’s nice. Maybe people will stop complaining about voting this time, and just vote. Last election there was a spate of righteous indignation about the leaders, the parties, the candidates, the process, and out of it arose the righteous people’s hope that they might, rather than just staying home quietly, actually go to the voting station and, as a protest, publicly decline their ballot. This would make them feel better, not to mention holding up the line a bit. It turned about that there was no provision for this in federal law. A voter could spoil his ballot, by

advertising. More than $26 million of that went to TV ads, while another $15.5 million went to Internet advertising – an industry dominated by American-based companies like Google and Facebook. Creating ads and paying ad agencies ate away another $10 million. Radio advertising cost just under $7 million. By comparison, community newspapers saw a paltry $867,000 in total advertising from Ottawa – or an average of about $25 per week per newspaper. The way in which your government uses your money to communicate with you is very telling. TV and Internet ads work to build brand, not to inform. Your community newspaper generates debate and serves as a forum for discussion – and is also one of the few places where local MPs actually receive editorial cover-

age outside election season. That’s why those MPs submit letters to the editor, columns or buy their own local advertising to share their work with the community. They know the power of your local community paper. The federal government knows it, too. The Harper government spent $1.25 million with a company called NewsCanada to create its own stories –stories it offers for free to print and broadcast outlets. The vast majority of these government-approved stories are never published. But you and I paid for them. It is disconcerting that the federal government spent 50 per cent more creating its own news than the total advertising buy in Canadian newspapers. The federal government strategy appears to be that it’s more important to make pretty ads than to put

relevant information about programs and services in front of readers of community newspapers. They’re telling you they’d rather give your tax dollars to Facebook and Google than Canadian-based companies that invest in local journalism. If the federal government continues to ignore our community newspapers, some communities may lose them. When that happens a vital voice is silenced. If you believe, as we do, that government should invest in meaningful communication with citizens through community newspapers, we ask you to help us. Contact your local candidate. We’d love to hear from you, too. Give us a call at 613-221-6261 or write a letter to the editor and email theresa.fritz@metroland.com. We’ll continue to make sure your voice is heard.

choices are better. Or maybe they realize that it isn’t all that satisfying to make a grandstand play in a church basement in front of 23 people who don’t even notice. And so we proceed, many of us quite happily. We like the ritual stroll to the neighbourhood church hall, getting the ballot (although all identification requirements makes us feel vaguely not trusted), marking the ballot, double-checking it to make sure we didn’t accidentally vote for the wrong person or play tic-tac-toe, asking the scrutineers how the turnout is, and then strolling back. It feels good, as if we have done something worthwhile, like going to church, which we sort of have. People who don’t vote miss out on this. It’s hard to know why, because voting is the farthest thing from difficult. The polling place is invariably close by, the hours make it easy to vote after work, and it is

possible, in many cases, to get time off to vote, if necessary. So there is nothing holding people back. Except for their own inertia and whatever feelings of alienation they may have. The local candidates may not appeal to some, none of the leaders may seem just right, none of the party platforms are perfect. But, hey: it’s not a perfect world. There must be something or someone you like better than the others. Or, to put it negatively, there must be someone you want to vote against. That’s a legitimate choice too, voting against. The important thing is to choose. There have been many strolls to the same church hall over the years and some changes too. The big difference is that there are people from all over the world at the polling place now, Canadians all, which is something that Canadians rightly celebrate. When asked what

differentiates Canada from other countries, Canadians might mention medicare, hockey and better beer, but they also mention how easy has been the transition from bicultural to multicultural society. As we know, not everyone is as happy with that as they should be, but voting day is a good time think about it.

The City of Ottawa would like to know if you received information about the drinking water advisory, how you received the information, what future information would be helpful in similar situations, and if you have enough information about what to do during a drinking water advisory. The survey includes 9 questions, and should take less than 10 minutes to complete. There is an option to complete the survey in English (haveyoursayottawa.ca) or French (donnezvotreavisottawa.ca).

‘Just Beyond The Fringe’ slogan John Curry

john.curry@metroland.com

The name “Dilawri” is closely woven with Stittsville as the car dealership bearing the Dilawri name not only grew to be the village’s largest employer at one time but also made Stittsville a household word across the Ottawa region because of the dealership’s success. Because of the car dealership’s extensive advertising using the slogan “Just Beyond The Fringe”, Stittsville itself became known as the community “Just Beyond The Fringe”. Even today, years after the Dilawri name left the Stittsville scene, many throughout the Ottawa area still remember the “Just Beyond The Fringe” slogan and the Stittsville connection. Indeed, the Dilawri “Just Beyond The Fringe” slogan had a permanent impact on Stittsville in that the community of Fringewood Village drew its name from the then-popular slogan. The name “Fringewood” was coined by the Sweetnam family, developers of Fringewood Village, because the slogan identified the Dilawri location a little farther to the west as “Just Beyond The Fringe.” So the newly AD was minted Fringewood community determined to be “ThePROOF Fringe” and the name Fringewood Village was coined. The name continues FORM today as does one of that community’s main streets,

New Ottawa Archives Exhibit Taverns and Troublemakers, the newest exhibit at the City of Ottawa Central Archives, is now open. Taverns and Troublemakers gives you a seat at the bar to drink in the history of Ottawa’s taverns, and a front-row view of the battle with the Temperance Movement, the troublemakers who had a different plan for society. The Temperance Movement called for moderation or abstinence from alcoholic beverages. Its goal was social reform, but the movement not only created a complicated road to regulating the sale and consumption of alcohol, it also created opportunities for bootleggers and the sale of illegal moonshine.

Fringewood Drive. Customers from across the whole Ottawa region came to the Dilawri car dealership during its two decades in business, starting in 1963. Indeed, in Stittsville, then a village of less than 2000 people, the Dilawri dealership had a dominant presence. It drew hundreds to the village, joining with the Kiltie MacTavish Furniture Warehouse established in the old Goulburn Bowling Lanes and associated buildings on Main Street in the 1970’s and later with the Stittsville Flea Market after it got going in 1974 as being the major attractions in the village. The Dilawri car dealership had a prominent location in Stittsville, located on Main Street near what was then highway seven and is now the Hazeldean Road. It was the first thing seen approaching and then entering the village. Dilawri Motor Sales Limited opened in November, 1963 as an authorized dealership for Mercury, Meteor and Comet cars as well as Mercury Trucks. It also offered genuine Ford parts and sold White Rose oil products. It set up in a completely new 70 foot by 70 foot building containing a two car showroom, offices and a complete parts department across the front of the building, with a service department in the ear. Originally Dilawri Motor Sales Limited had looked at purchasing property along Main Street where later the Stittsville Lions Medical Centre building was constructed. However, owner Hari Dilawri in the end purchase the site where Dilawri’s went on to become such a landmark. It was low, sampy land that had to be filled in. Much of the fill came from a hill that used to exist where the Stittsville Shopping Centre was built in the late 1980’s. Hari Dilawri, who had previous experience in the automobile business, was joined in the business by his two brothers. A grand opening of Dilawri Motor Sales Limited at what was then 707 Main Street North in Stittsville was held from Thursday to Saturday, November 28-30, in 1963. A highlight of this grand opening celebration was a performance by the CFRA Happy Wanderers group on the Friday evening. Refreshments and gifts for all visitors were provided during the grand opening. Dilawri Motor Sales quickly became part of the community. In February, 1965, for instance, Dilawri Motor Sales donated a 1965 Comet to South Carleton High School in Richmond for use in the school’s Driver Education Course which was sanctioned by the Ontario Department of Transport. The keys to the new car were handed over in a brief ceremony to W.W. Powell, principal of South Carleton, by Harry Dilawri of Dilawri Motor Sales which was a Mercury/Meteo/ Comet dealer at that time. Others taking part in the presentation of the keys ceremony were sales manager Guy Lemaire and truck specialist Gunter Wellenstein. As early as 1967, the firm was using the slogan “Just Beyond The Fringe”, a motto that became such a well known advertising jingo in the area that it still is readily identified with Dilawri’s and Stittsville by many today.

Dilawri Motor Sales Limited became at one time the largest Mercury dealer in Ontario and perhaps in all of Canada. In its boom years, it sold about 1,900 new vehicles a year. The largest car dealer in the Ottawa area at that time might sell up to 2,500 new vehicles in a year but such a dealer would represent a more popular vehicle such as Chevrolet. In 1969, Dilawri Motor Sales Ltd. became a truck centre as well, selling both Ford and Mercury trucks. It went on to become a well known truck dealer, selling vehicles across Canada. An additional service area was added to the original Dilawri building in 1971 which was the year that the firm boasted as being Ontario’s largest Mercury dealer. Dilawri’s became a major employer in Stittsville, with 40 to 45 persons on staff in the late 1960’s and the number growing to 90 to 100 staff before the firm folded in the early 1980’s, forced into bankruptcy due to a soft car market and a spat of other investments which had drained resources from the firm, weakening it just when it needed to be strong to get through the bad automotive times. Hari Dilawri had gotten into other ventures as early as 1967 when he purchased Bonaventure Ford (then Blondin Ford) in Hull. He continued through the years to expand his business interests with other car dealerships, a tent and trailer business and an equipment dealership. In 1973, McCaffrey Auto Sales Ltd., a General Motors dealership and a Stittsville institution since 1914, closed. The McCaffrey firm employed about 13 people at the time of its closure. General Motors pledged to open another dealership in Stittsville and within four months of the McCaffrey closure did so, with Dilawri Motors Sales Limited, up until then a Mercury dealership, becoming a General Motors dealership under the Chev-Olds label. Dilawri’s continued to be successful as a General Motors dealership. In 1976, Dilawri Chevrolet-Oldsmobile Limited of Stittsville was honoured as one of the top 100 General Motors’ dealers in Canada, being awarded the President’s Triple Crown Award which was a newly inaugurated award that year. This award was for excellence in leadership skills in all phases of dealership management. Also in 1976, Dilawri’s was planning a major addition to its building. It would be a two storey addition on the south side of the existing showroom. This new addition, opened in 1977, would house customer reception and service as well as new offices. The Dilawri success story carried on in the late 1970’s, with the Dilawri family branching out into other car dealerships in the Ottawa area. Among these dealerships with which the Dilawri name was associated were Carleton Chrysler and then Amberdawn Ford which closed in the early 1980’s. These dealerships were located in Stittsville in the Hazeldean Road building that went on to house Ritchie Feed and Seed and later a Rona/ Cashway Building Centre. See DILAWRI, page 11

Dilawri Chev-Olds ends in 1982 Continued from page 10

But with a downturn in the automotive market in the early 1980’s, Dilawri Chev-Olds was not given the financial resources by its ownership to survive the crisis. Instead of concentrating on new automotive initiatives such as leasing, Hari Dilawri became financially involved with other ventures such as a proposed car mall and an insulation business, both in the United States. Eventually, a financial crunch hit Dilawri’s and the firm was forced into bankruptcy with several million dollars of debt. Ironically, about six months after the firm closed down, the car business saw the start of a turnaround. Dilawri Chev-Olds was placed in receivership in the first week of May, 1982, despite being one of the largest General Motors dealerships in the country. Clarkson Company Ltd., which had been appointed receiver, undertook a three week study to determine the financial prospects for the company. The business continued in operation for this short while as the receiver looked for a possible buyer. Dilawri Chev-Olds was the fifth large dealership in the Ottawa area to go into receivership within a year of each other due to declining new car sales, the result of high interest rates and tight economic conditions in the country. By September, 1982, the Dilawri Chev-Olds building in Stittsville was vacant due to the Dilawri bankruptcy. However, it was not vacant for long. In October, 1982, the thenCarleton Board of Education, which was looking for a new home for its stores and maintenance divisions, agreed to purchase the building and its 9.9 acre site. The bankruptcy trustees were asking $1.4 million for the 32,000 square foot complex. The Carleton Board of Education paid $900,000 while estimating that $400,000 to $500,000 would be needed for renovations. However, this was far less than the estimated $3.4 million which the Board would have to spend to build a new, comparable facility. About 60 staff and 35 vehicles were

involved with the CBE’s stores and maintenance divisions. In January, 1983, the Carleton Board of Education agreed to spend $2,255,000 to develop the Dilawri property and facility for its purposes. This included $900,000 to purchase the existing building and property, $990,000 to convert the existing building to house the Board’s plant and construction trades, another $150,000 for site development and $830,000 to construct a new 20,000 square foot building on the site for use as a central stores and warehouse facility. The steel framework for this new stores depot building was erected by May, 1983. Renovations on the former Dilawri building were to allow it to be used as the Board’s maintenance depot. In December, 1983, the official opening of the Central Depot of the Carleton Board of Education was held. Renovations and upgrading had ended up costing $1,368,000 while the new building on the site had cost $957,000. A total of 85 staff ended up working at this new Central Depot location. While the official opening was held in December, Carleton Board staff had actually begun occupying the renovated and new premises in early June, 1983. In addition to housing the offices for the Board’s plant department and foremen for the Board’s maintenance work, the Board’s courier service to all schools operated from the facility. The maintenance staff at the facility supervised and scheduled all maintenance work in Board schools. In addition, all of the Board’s tradesmen and truck drivers were housed at the facility. The new Central Stores building was used to warehouse all of the supplies used by the school board both in its schools and in the maintenance of its properties. In late 1996, the Carleton Roman Catholic School Board leased space at this site from the Carleton Board of Education for its planning department. The Carleton Board of Education, which had become part of the new Ottawa-Carleton District School Board with the provincial initiative to reduce the number of school

boards through amalgamation of existing local boards, closed down this Central Depot facility in 1998. The Carleton Roman Catholic School Board continued to lease space at the site until 2002 when, as the then-amalgamated Ottawa-Carleton Catholic School Board, it moved into a new headquarters building where most of its staff were housed, including its planning staff that had been at the Stittsville site. By 2007, the Ottawa-Carleton District School Board was once again utilizing the facility as premises for its facilities department, including its design and construction services, its maintenance division and its operations division. The former central stores and warehouse facility was being used as the facilities department’s conference room and training centre. Dilawri Motor Sales Limited and later Dilawri Chev-Olds had succeeded for two decades for a number of reasons. One lay in the firm’s inventory policy, having 250 to 300 vehicles on site at any one time and sometimes as many as 500 vehicles. As a result, customers did not have to order a new car and wait for its delivery. They could select the model and colour and options that they wanted and in most cases, drive the vehicle right off the lot. The 250 to 300 vehicles on the lot seemed like a thousand or more to customers who up until that time were not used to seeing such a sea of vehicles at a car dealer’s lot. Advertising and promotion were also keys to the Dilawri success. “Just Beyond The Fringe” became a frequent and easily recognized slogan. Besides advertising, though, the dealership was constantly trying different promotions and gimmicks. In 1967, Canada’s Centennial Year, the dealership had a successful promotion in which purchasers received a free bust of either John A. Macdonald or Georges Etienne Cartier, two key Fathers of Confederation. The busts, obtained due to a failed promotional scheme elsewhere, turned out to be extremely popular and people actually purchased cars just so that they could obtain one of the busts. Another popular promotion

happened when Dilawri’s gave away two silver dollars to anyone who brought in a car for a trade-in appraisal. It went on and one, with promotions constantly attracting customers. And when they came, they were met by some of the top sales people in the business. Hari Dilawri, founder of the dealership, involved his staff, always asking staff members their opinion before doing anything. In addition, he treated his sales staff well, realizing that selling new cars was the key to economic success. He was a great motivator. For instance, if a salesperson was in a slump and feeling low, Hari might suggest that he go in and purchase a new suit and get a haircut, all at Hari’s expense. The sales person would invariably return to work the next day, full of energy and eager to start selling. Dilawri’s provided vehicles not only for its sales personnel but also for the wives. There was wisdom in this seeming madness. A wife with her own car would not be constantly phoning the husband, seeking the family car. In addition, she would be far less inclined to complain when the husband worked long hours. And working long hours was virtually compulsory at Dilawri’s. A weekday schedule of 9 a.m. to 10 p.m. was not uncommon, along with working Saturdays until 6 p.m. If a sales person did not put in the time as expected, he would soon find himself not working there. Hari Dilawri, who founded and led the business through its growth and was responsible for much of it through his handling of staff and his positive approach to sales, eventually returned to India, his homeland. At last report, he was in business in Russia. Ram Dilawri, who looked after the day to day business at Dilawri’s in its later years, was the last to leave the premises when the firm closed down. He ended up in Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan, involved with a car dealership. Kay Dilawri, a third brother, became involved in various business enterprises in the Ottawa area, including Kay-Dee Automobiles, a car dealership.

It was an evening with lots of popular standards but perhaps the most intriguing offerings of the Gaia Java coffee shop music evening last Friday with singer Betty Ann Bryanton and guitar accompanist Pierre Monfils were a pair of medley tunes combining two already familiar songs. One of these medley combination tunes, with Pierre playing the ukulele, was a song recorded in 1993 by Hawaiian musician Israel “Iz” Kamahawiwo ole who combined “Somewhere Over the Rainbow” with “What A Wonderful World.” This medley song has been featured in films, on TV and even in commercials since 1993. It was in keeping with this combining of great songs that Betty Ann and Pierre presented a medley of “The House of the Rising Sun,” a traditional folk ballad identified with New Orleans that was a big hit in 1964 for the English rock group The Animals, with the 18th century Christian hymn “Amazing Grace,” a song that has been recorded hundreds of times and is a religious classic of the first order. You knew that you were in for a great evening of jazz standards when Betty Ann sang “All of Me” as the sound check, ensuring that the sound system was set properly. “All of Me,” of course, has become a popular jazz standard since being written in 1931, covered by a wide range of singers like Frank Sinatra, Michael Buble, Bil-

lie Holiday, Bing Crosby, Russ Columbo, Ella Fitzgerald, Dean Martin, Sarah Vaughan and even Anne Murray. And the promise of an evening of great music as established by the sound checking

“All of Me” saw early fulfilment as the first song presented by Betty Ann and Pierre was “Pennies from Heaven,” a song introduced by Bing Crosby in a 1936 movie of the same name and a song that has been record-

ed over the years by some of the greats such as Billie Holiday, Louis Armstrong, Tony Bennett, Frank Sinatra and Dean Martin. The 1936 recording of the song by Bing Crosby was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame in 2004. The duo sang “East of the Sun and West of the Moon,” a 1934 song written for a drama production at Princeton University and a song that has been considered a jazz standard since the 1950’s. Betty Ann and Pierre got away from jazz and ventured into more of the world of pop when they performed “Somebody,” a song with a beautiful lilting melody, perhaps a surprise considering that it was written by Martin Gore of the English electronic band Depeche Mode. Martin Gore recorded the ballad in 1984. Other songs performed by Betty Ann and Pierre last Friday included “Bye Bye Blackbird,” a 1926 song that has become a popular standard recorded by many artists over the years; “Summertime,” the 1934 George Gershwin song written for the 1935 opera Porgy & Bess which is now considered a jazz standard and has become one of the most covered songs in the history of recorded music; “Oh Shenandoah,” a traditional 19th century American folk song that has been recorded by a wide range of singers such as Bing Crosby, Glen Campbell, Bob Dylan, Judy Garland, Arlo Guthrie and the Statler Brothers; the still enchanting “Girl from Ipanema,” a Brazilian bossa nova song that was an in-

And perhaps knowing that you should always leave your audience smiling, Betty Ann and Pierre finished their performance at the Gaia Java shop on a happy note, presenting the song “When You’re Smiling,” a song made famous by Louis Armstrong who recorded it three times (1929, 1932 and 1956) but which has been recorded by many others including Billie Holiday, Frank Sinatra, Nat King Cole, Patti Page, Dean Martin and Andy Williams. It even featured a segment with Pierre playing a kazoo, bringing forth a spontaneous and robust round of applause from the audience. Betty Ann Bryanton and Pierre Monfils have performed together in various Ottawa and Gatineau locations. The share a love of jazz standards, offering tasteful interpretations of these classic tunes. In addition, they have fun performing together which adds to the audience’s enjoyment of their performance.

13-13 tie for Sacred Heart Huskies Special to the News

It ended up 13-13 on the scoreboard. That’s because the Sacred Heart High School Huskies scored 13 points in the first half and the Sir Wilfrid Laurier Secondary School squad scored its 13 points in the second half of this high school junior football game played at Sacred Heart in Stittsville on Tuesday, Oct. 6. It was a game of two halves, HusJohn Curry/Metroland kies head coach Curtis MacNeil said, Matthew Gauthier, centre, number 45 of the Sacred Heart High School pointing out that the Huskies more or Huskies, runs with the ball after receiving a pass in the junior football less dictated the play in the first half, game between the Huskies and the visiting Sir Wilfrid Laurier squad at taking a 13-0 lead into half time, while the Sir Wilfrid Laurier squad got its Sacred Heart in Stittsville on Tuesday, Oct. 6. ground game going in the second half, breaking through to score 13 points as well.

The Sacred Heart passing game was in evidence in this game, unlike in the team’s opening game 20-0 loss to St. Joseph High School on Tuesday, Sept. 29 when rain and wind hampered this offensive passing game. But in this game against Sir Wilfrid Laurier, Huskies quarterback Nolan Harris connected with receivers such as Moe Ateye, Jacob Partello and Matthew Gauthier to display the team’s dangerous air game. Wide receiver Moe Ateye, who is playing his first year of football, was a particular target of the quarterback’s passes. He scored the first touchdown of the game on a pass and was a threat throughout the game. Moe said after the game that playing football is proving exciting for him, noting the team’s good passing offense in the game. Both teams missed a concert in the game or else the outcome may have been different than the 13-13 tie. Sacred Heart took a 6-0 lead on the Ateye touchdown pass reception. In the second quarter, the Huskies got a scare as Sir Wilfrid Laurier drove down to the Huskies one yard line. However, the Huskies defense stiffened and drove the visitors back, eventually taking over on downs and not allowing Sir Wilfrid Laurier to score. Before the second quarter ended, the Huskies scored another touchdown, this time adding the convert, to take a 13-0 lead into half time. On the last play of the third quarter, Sir Wilfrid Laurier scored a touchdown and added the concert to cut the Huskies’ lead to 13-7. The visitors then added another

touchdown in the fourth quarter to make the score 13-13 as the convert was missed. The teams both had chances on offense in the final two minutes of the game. The Huskies recovered a fumble with 33 seconds to go but then Sir Wilfrid Laurier intercepted a Huskies pass with seven seconds to go, ending the Huskies chances at a last minute score. So the game ended in a 13-13 tie.

‘The Grants of Goulbourn’ Special to the News

“The Grants of Goulbourn” will be the topic at the October meeting of the Huntley Township Historical Society on Tuesday, Oct. 20 at 7 p.m. at the Carp Memorial Hall in Carp. Robert Grant was one of the early settlers in the Stittsville area and became one of its most prominent citizens. He died tragically in the Carleton County Fire of 1870. His son, Robert Henry Grant, also played a prominent role in Stittsville area affairs, holding a number of Goulbourn township positions, being a founding member of the Hazeldean Masonic Lodge as well as one of the founders of the Hazeldean Rural Telephone Company and

going on to become Minister of Education for the province of Ontario from 1919 to 1923. The Grant Crossing shopping area on the north side of Hazeldean Road is named after the Grant family. So too is Robert Grant Avenue, the north/south arterial road which will eventually run through the Fernbank lands as well as the Kanata West area. Presenting the story of “The Grants of Goulbourn” at this Oct. 20 meeting of the Huntley Township Historical Society will be John Curry, editor of the Stittsville News and author of “Richmond on the Jock,” a book on the history of Richmond. Everyone is welcome to attend this meeting and hear about “The Grants of Goulbourn.”

Bank account for Richmond’s 200th celebrations Special to the News

anniversary celebrations in 2018 are hoping that more of these “grassroots” deposits will be made to the account. Indeed, these deposits from members of the public, whether donations or funds generated by a fundraising effort, are one of the three key sources that are being counted on to raise the funds needed to put on the celebrations. It is being hoped that local residents and organizations will begin holding fundraising events in support of the 200th anniversary celebrations, such as a bake sale or a dance or a lemonade stand or some other fundraising activity. The other sources of funding for the 200th anniversary celebrations which are being pursued are donations from the community’s corporate and business communities as well as grants and funding from various levels of government. The fundraising goal is in the $100,000 range. All of this funding will be deposited in this account at the TD Canada Trust branch in Richmond which is located at the Richmond Village Marketplace shopping area at the corner of Perth Street and Shea Road in Richmond. For more information about the fundraising related to Richmond’s 200th anniversary celebrations, please contact the RVA at http://www.richmondvillage.ca/comments-or-questions/ .

There’s a bank account at the Canada Trust TD branch in Richmond that is collecting funds for Richmond’s 200th anniversary celebrations in 2018. So far, there is $4,055 in the account and that’s just from two depositors. The account, though, is open to accept donations from any individuals, businesses or organizations which wish to make a contribution. Just visit the TD Canada Trust branch in Richmond, indicate that you want to make a deposit in the Richmond 200th anniversary celebration account and it will be done. The Richmond Village Association (RVA), which opened the account on behalf of the Richmond Bicentennial Organizing Committee, has made two deposits to the account, both for $2,000 each. The second one was just made recently on behalf of the RVA by RVA president Tino Bevacqua. This is in keeping with the RVA’s commitment to contribute $2,000 towards the 200th anniversary celebrations each year for four years – in 2014, 2015, 2016 and 2017. Besides the two RVA donations, there recently was a $55 deposit to the account made. This is the first “grassroots” donation received, so that the account now has a balance of $4,055.

Singing ‘Amazing Grace’ in Inuktitut language at St. Thomas Church john.curry@metroland.com

Singing the popular traditional Christian hymn “Amazing Grace.” Inspiring. Being led in the singing by the renowned “Singing Mountie” Garth Hampson. Memorable. And singing the refrain in Inuktitut, the language of Iqaluit in Canada’s North. Priceless. This was the experience of the more than 30 who attended a meeting hosted by the Anglican Church Women at St. Thomas Anglican Church in Stittsville on Monday afternoon, Oct. 5. The Inuktitut words of the refrain of “Amazing Grace” were distributed to all those in attendance and when it came time to sing the refrain along Garth Hampson, the Inuktitut words filled the church: “Tata-nna-miik Piu-lik-mang-aa/ Pi-u-li-laur-mang-a/Tau-tuknang-a Ay-uq-lung-a/ Ma-na Tau-tuuk-pung-a.” Hearing the Arctic language of Inuktitut in the church seemed appropriate as the topic for the meeting was about life in the North in general, about St. Jude’s Cathedral (The Igloo Church) in Iqaluit and about a trip to Iqaluit being organized for next August. Garth Hampson, of course, while known for being the long time principal soloist for the RCMP band and performing all around the world, was also stationed in the North early in his career as an RCMP officer. He told how the famous

Igloo Church, i.e. St. Jude’s Cathedral, was destroyed by arson in 2005 and had to be rebuilt. He noted that building anything in the Arctic was not an easy task as all of the materials have to be shipped or flown into the community. The rebuilding began in 2008 and was completed three years ago. “It’s an amazing facility,” Garth said, noting that it is the Cathedral for the Anglican Diocese based in Iqaluit which is the largest Anglican Diocese in the world by geography. He noted that there is still $700,000 in debt remaining on the ten million dollar facility, a debt which he said that Iqaluit residents hope to pay off by the end of December. Garth noted that the weather in the Arctic today is much the same as when he was posted there half a century ago.

Carleton County Fire - 145 years ago John Curry

john.curry@metroland.com

All of the ingredients of a devastating fire were present 145 years ago – a tinder dry landscape from four months of drought, a collection of farms built largely of fire friendly white cedar and a rising wind. And then it happened – on Aug. 17, 1870, workers cutting brush for the new Central Canada Railway line near Blakeney between Almonte and Pakenham set about to burn it but the fire got away, spreading into the adjacent bush area. Efforts to contain the fire proved fruitless as the wind, eventually to reach 100 mile per hour speeds later in the day, began to rise, spreading the fire which eventually devastated much of Carleton County and Lanark County and became known as the Great Fire of 1870. This Great Fire of August, 1870, also sometimes known as the Carleton County Fire, devastated much of what was then Carleton County and even threatened Ottawa for a time. The fire broke out following a months-long dry spell which left the countryside tinder dry and susceptible to a rampaging, out-of-control fire. The year 1870 had been a year of tremendous drought in the Ottawa Valley, with rivers running almost dry and the swamps all drying up. While there had been lots of snow the previous winter, rain on May 6 had been the last rain to fall. It would not rain again until Sept. 24 when it poured

rain for the first time in five months. The co-called Carleton County Fire (or Great Fire) of August, 1870, brought not only destruction but also death in its wake, partly because of its wide swath and its rapid, blitzkreig-like advance. Among the deaths were those of Mrs. Patrick Hartin, an early settler from Ireland who settled in the Stittsville area, and who, on August 1870, died clutching a prized old world clock, on the bank of Poole Creek; and of Robert Grant of Stittsville, also on August 17, 1970, who was engulfed by flames in his stone home. This year’s experience with fires in British Columbia, Alberta and Saskatchewan as well as more local examples such as the July 2013 brush fire in the Stony Swamp area near Fallowfield which took the efforts of today’s modern firefighting equipment and personnel to prevent from spreading more widely show that dry conditions can make brush and countryside a tinder box, ready to burn suddenly and quickly. And so the Great Fire of 1870 becomes all that much more understandable, given the dry conditions in the countryside and a howling wind to push the fire along. One wonders why the people did not flee from the fire and why they were still on their properties as the fire advanced. You would think that they would have taken out some of their treasures and would have been lodged

safely elsewhere well before their properties were ravaged by the fire. But not so. The answer is to be found in the behaviour of the fire which began near Blakeney in the Pakenham area. The fire, which broke out on August 17, 1870, following a dry spell, fanned out from its source in a southeast direction. With dry conditions, the fire, advancing with a front nearly ten miles wide at times, ravaged the northwestern Carleton County countryside, propelled by windy conditions. It was these winds that accounted for the fire’s rapid advance, almost like a sudden attack, on Stittsville and particularly on the strip in the 12th concession of Goulbourn which is currently the site of the Grant Crossing shopping area on Hazeldean Road and the Fairwinds subdivision, as well as across the townline in Huntley and March townships that is roughly in the shadow of the current Scotiabank Place. The winds of the fire, on August 17, 1870, increased to gale force around 4 p.m. and were closing in on hurricane dimensions by 11 p.m. This greatly increased the speed of the advancing fire. This is why Robert Grant was faced with rushing into his burning home to save the church records of St. Paul’s Anglican Church at Hazeldean, other documents and probably money, including likely some of his own. This is why his son, tenyear-old Robert Grant, a fu-

Fabric Shop & Sewing Studio

ture Ontario cabinet minister, had to carry his one-year-old brother across the road to a neighbour’s, just in front of the advancing flames as his heroic father was entering their burning house in his illfated last act. The fire had come upon Stittsville and the Grant farm so suddenly that there was no time for preparation. They were caught unaware. The Grants knew about fires. Robert Grant had lost his farm buildings to fire four times previously. He knew its dangers. Obviously, however, he had underestimated the ferocity of the August 17 fire which quickly engulfed his home and farm. He paid dearly with his life and thus on August 17, 1870, Goulbourn and Stittsville lost one of its most outstanding pioneers, distinguished and highly respected. Mrs. Hartin, from an ad-

jacent farm, also died on this terrifying day, succumbing to the fire as she tired to reach the safety of nearby Poole Creek. Her second son, David, (lot 27, concession 12 of Goulbourn) lost all of his buildings in the fire, including his log house, as well as his sawmill and threshing mill. In 1871, the year following the fire that had taken his mother’s life and wiped out his buildings, he built a large stone house on his farm. In 1872, David deeded the farm to his eldest son, Charlie, and moved to Twin Elm. Stittsville itself, centered around Jackson Stitt’s corner at the intersection of the Huntley Road (now Carp Road and the 12th concession road (now Neil Avenue), was virtually wiped out. But such was the nature of the fire that there were pockets of survival as the fire was erratic and unpredictable in

its course. Some farms would be leap-frogged by the flames, leaving them untouched, while others were engulfed in flames. Kemp’s Tavern (now Cabotto’s Restaurant), the newly built stone building across the road from the Hartin and Grant farms, was not destroyed. At the time, it was harbouring workers who were building the railway line through Stittsville. The McCurdy stone farmhouse, immediately east of Kemp’s Tavern, an impressive building built in 1832, the same year that Robert Grant built his Georgian-style stone house that was gutted in the fire, was untouched by the fire, as was the adjacent Butler farmhouse where young Robert Grant and probably the rest of his family had fled on the night of the fire.

26 Stittsville News - Thursday, October 15, 2015

Continued from page 25

South of Stittsville, on the tenth line, the Methodist Chapel (the future Stittsville United Church) had survived the fire, thanks to mud placed on its wooden sills by frantic parishioners’ hands. In between the chapel and Stittsville were the railway tracks. By this time, less than one month before the ceremonial first train passed through Stittsville on September 15, 1870, the station and water tower must have been erected. Yet they were untouched by the fire. So, the Great Fire, while widespread, did not deliver its destruction to every single acre in its path. But it was widespread and moved fast, covering the 40 miles between its start and its most eastward point within the one day, August 17, 1870. Only the breaking of a dam which created Dow’s Lake and letting the waters spew across the countryside down an old creek bed to LeBreton Flats at the Ottawa River saved the city of Ottawa from the fire’s destruction. Declining wind and firefighting efforts by all available men also helped in saving Ottawa and its 20,000 residents from the ravages of the fire. But western Carleton County was devastated. People had sought refuge in the nearest water, the Jock, the Ottawa River, any creek. An Ottawa newspaper recounted the damage in Nepean, particularly around Bells Corners, adding that “at Goulbourn, the damage has been immense”, although details were scarce at that time. With regard to Robert Grant’s farm, one of the most prosperous, the Ottawa Citizen reported: “Mr. Grant’s farm has been completely destroyed, not a fence or building being left on it, and his own life lost.” The newspaper further reported that Mrs. Grant and their children escaped with their lives, although not without hazard.” as Mrs. Grant’s dress caught fire as she rushed from the burning building with her children.” And further, the newspaper reported that from a swamp west of Bells Corners to Mr. Grant’s farm, a distance of five miles, only one house along the road was burned. But from Stittsville northwest through Huntley township, as well as in March township and the north part of Nepean township, a swath of country four miles wide was utter destruction with nine houses out of every ten destroyed. There were reports of winds of terrific force which swept the fire along “in billows of flame until the whole west appeared like a sea of fire rolling down. . .” Even after the horrendous first night, the fire still smouldered in places, burning in fallen logs and dry stumps and creeping through the logs of the corduroy roads. Those unaffected by the fire in Ottawa and elsewhere launched a relief area to help the 2,000 refugees from the fire. Many were without food, clothing and shelter. Daily in the days following August 17, quantities of clothing, provisions and lumber were sent to Goulbourn, Huntley and March townships, the three devastated areas as well as the Bells Corners area. An observer, calling the fire a “national calamity’, tells of his observations. “Today (Sunday) I drove out to Bells Corners, with a friend to see the county and the site of the most fatal destruction in this whole section. I cannot express to you the effect on my mind and heart, of the many scenes of destruction of

the most valuable property that I have seen in a drive of three hours. Large stone houses and barns are burned up as chaff. I have imagined how the ruins of some of the populous sections of Egypt must strike the beholder, as ruin after ruin meets his eye, as he treads onward and every moment something new presents itself.” Even the Toronto Daily Telegraph, on September 9, 1870, reported on the Great Fire, albeit three weeks after it happened. “Few at this distance have an adequate idea of the magnitude of the disaster that has fallen upon the people in the burnt district adjacent to Ottawa. So sweeping a fire was never before known, in a purely farming country such as that which has devastated in this instance. For miles there is not a house standing, not a fence, and not a tree except bare trunks, denuded of all their branches.” The railroad track from Carleton Place to Stittsville was completed by this time and Canada Central Railroad Co. trains transported barrels of water from the Mississippi River at Carleton Place to the Stittsville area. However, you have to wonder how effective this was as each train carried only 40 barrels. Railway workers also fanned out through the area, helping farmers to save many a home. The fire killed many cattle and sheep throughout the area, not only threatening the farmers’ future existence but also creating the possibility of a pestilence from the dead carcasses. But farmers, exhausted, had little time for burying these carcasses. The fire spread so rapidly not only because of the high winds and extremely dry conditions but also because of the nature of the land. The landscape was a patchwork of farms and forested areas, a backdrop which allowed bush and grass fires to spread unchecked over distances. Residents fled before the flames, sometimes often without any belongings other than the clothes on their backs. They sought refuge in creeks and streams, even wells, the Ottawa River for those close to it, open fields or neighbouring homes miraculously spared from the rampaging flames. When the Great Fire had subsided, it had killed 12 people, torched approximately 400 farms and created 2000 refugees. The federal government gave first $20,000 and then $50,000 in relief aid for those affected by the fire. This action by the federal government set the precedent for the federal government providing citizens with assistances at the time of a disaster, a practice that continues to this day. In addition, Carleton County Council voted $5,000 in relief for those affected by the fire. There were private donations as well. Some farmers did not have insurance to help cover their losses. The relief funds largely went to furnish flour and grain to the farmers so that they could survive through to the harvest of 1871. While the Ice Storm of January, 1998 caused disruption, inconvenience and tree damage to the Stittsville area, the Carleton County Fire of 1870, with its deaths and property damage, remains the Stittsville area’s most tragic natural disaster. A plaque commemorating this Carleton County Fire or Great Fire of 1870 has been erected at Village Square Park in Stittsville thanks to the Goulbourn Township Historical Society.


Queensway Carleton Hospital Summit meeting on Oct. 24 Steph Willems

Steph.willems@metroland.com

It’s the moment Marty McFly arrived in the future, and west-end city councillors including Stittsville ward councillor Shad Qadri plan to be ready. A fundraising gala benefitting the new Acute Care for the Elderly (ACE) unit at the Queensway Carleton Hospital is planned for Oct. 21, 2015 – the day programmed into the time-travelling Delorean at the end of the 1985 film ‘Back to the Future’. The event takes numerous cues from the movie, going with an ‘Enchantment under the Sea’ theme for the dinner and gala, just like the one enjoyed by Marty McFly’s parents in 1955. Hosted by sponsor Algonquin College, the fundraiser was the brainchild of College Ward councillor and movie aficionado Rick Charelli. “This seemed like a great opportunity to hold an Enchantment under the Sea dance, and to raise money for the ACE unit,” said Chiarelli, adding that the gala will be appropriately decorated, with a band playing hits from the 1950s to the 1980s. Because provincial rules dictate that 10 per cent of hospital construction costs and 100 per cent of new capital equipment be funded by the community, all west-end city councillors including councillor Qadri have signed on to organize and support the fundraiser. “(Barrhaven Coun.) Jan Harder and I started

this, and it spread to other councillors in the area,” said Chiarelli. “This came out of an effort to raise $30 per household in the hospital’s catchment area, which translates into approximately $1.5 million.” The genesis of this began last fall when councillors Harder and Chiarelli announced that all of the west end councillors were going to rally together to support the funding requirements to build the ACE unit. The community’s share is $3 million, while the provincial government has made a commitment of $8.9 million. The hospital floor that will house the unit was constructed during the most recent hospital expansion, but has sat unfinished as the hospital sought funding. Once complete, the 34-bed medical unit will cater solely to elderly people admitted with injuries. The unit’s staff will also treat comorbid illnesses and issues that often accompany injuries at advanced ages, ensuring better overall health once the patient returns home. The unit is modelled after a pioneering elderly wing at Mount Sinai Hospital in Toronto. It is anticipated construction will begin in the spring of 2016, with patients accepted into the ACE unit in late 2017. Anyone looking to contribute to the hospital while enjoying a retro evening can purchase tickets to the gala fundraiser by contacting AceAmbassadorGala@gmail.com, or online at www.enchantmentundertheseagala.eventbrite.com.

for mental illness caregivers Special to the News

Taking care of a family member who suffers from mental illness can be draining emotionally, physically and financially. That’s why it is important to connect with others who face the same challenges. It allows a caregiver to realize that he or she is not alone and there are others who are dealing with the same challenges on a daily basis as well. One good place for caregivers to make connections and to learn from others is the third annual Mental Illness Caregivers Association (MICA) Summit which is happening on Saturday, Oct. 24 at Glen Cairn United Church on Abbeyhill Drive in Kanata. This is being hosted not only by MICA but also by The Oasis in Kanata, an organization that offers regular programs for caregivers of those with symptoms of mental illness. The theme of this MICA

Summit will be “Families Building Partnerships” which will focus on caregiver collaboration and engagement with both public and private institutions to bring about long lasting solutions to the issues that affect families of those with a mental illness. This free day-long MICA Summit, running from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., is expected to attract caregivers from across Eastern Ontario. Refreshments and a light lunch will be provided. Pre-registration is required with space limited. Those planning to attend are urged to register before Friday, Oct. 9 at www.micaontario.com . For more information about this MICA Summit, please call 613-860-7800. MICA, established in 2008, is an association of family, friends and consumers of mental health services who provide mutual support to manage the effects of serious and persis-

tent mental illness. In recent years the organization has worked across Eastern Ontario to identify priority issues and stimulate action. This upcoming MICA Summit will provide those who attend with an opportunity to learn more about the progress being made by family members and their partner institutions and their partner institutions, for caregivers to connect with other caregivers, and for caregivers to suggest ideas that will help create a better quality of life for themselves and their loved ones. The Oasis in Kanata is an outreach program of Glen Cairn United Church that provides information and support to caregivers of people with symptoms of mental illness in Kanata, Stittsville, Goulbourn and the surrounding areas.

the TD Place stadium at Lansdowne Park. The Jubilee Singers and Junior Jubilees will be singing both the American and Canadian national anthems at the beginning of the game. This is not the first time that the Jubilee Singers have sung at a sporting event as the Jubilee Singers have sung O Canada at the beginning of an Ottawa 67’s hockey game in the past. Indeed, it was this previous sporting experience that probably led to the choir being asked to sing at the Fury FC game. But this upcoming performance at the Oct. 18 soccer match will be different. At the Ottawa 67’s performance, the Jubilee Singers sang while remaining in the stands. But at the soccer match, the Jubilee Singers and Junior Jubilees will be right there on the field, in the middle of the action. It’s all going to be pretty intimidating, Goulbourn Jubilee Singers artistic director Linda Crawford admits. More than this, at the soccer match, the Jubilee Singers and Junior Jubilees are going to be singing both the Canadian and American national anthems, not just O Canada like at the Ottawa 67’s game. That’s because this is a soccer game between teams from both Canada and the United States. Artistic director Crawford says that the choirs have been working hard on the anthems because both anthems must be memorized and well known. The two anthems will be performed a cappella with the bilingual “Hockey Night in Canada” version of O Canada being performed. The choirs will only have the benefit of a quick warmup before performing. Members of the Jubilee Singers will be travelling down to the TD

Place stadium this Sunday on their own or car pooling, assembling there before their performance. Many are staying to watch the game or to enjoy a dinner downtown. The Goulbourn Jubilee Singers, founded in 1977 in Stittsville, welcome any adult who enjoys singing. There are no auditions and sight-reading ability of music is not required. The Goulbourn Jubilee Singers normally perform two major concerts a year, one before Christmas and one in the early spring. The Jubilee Singers rehearse every Wednesday evening at the Stittsville United Church on Fernbank Road in Stittsville. The Goulbourn Jubilee Singers started its youth choir, the Junior Jubilees, in the year 2000 to encourage involvement in choral singing with younger singers in the community. The Jubilee Singers are also associated with the Junior Jubilee Teens, a new choir of teen singers ages 13 and up. This teen ensemble performs on its own at the concerts as well as with the Junior Jubilees and with the adult choir. Linda Crawford, a long time, now retired music teacher at Goulbourn Middle School, is the artistic director of the Goulbourn Jubilee Singers and its associated junior choirs. Bonnie MacDiarmid is the accompanist for the choirs. The Goulbourn Jubilee Singers recently released a CD entitled “Why We Sing.” The upcoming 2016 year promises to be an exciting one for the Goulbourn Jubilee Singers as the choir is planning a trip to Europe where the group will sing at a music festival as well as at various local concerts. The Jubilee Singers will be undertaking a number of fundraising activities in the coming months to help fund this musical excursion to Europe next July.


Learn about house plants and their care Special to the News

House plants are common both in homes and in offices. And there are lots of different varieties, some with lots of foliage and some which flower while there are others that are succulent. And names range from Aluminum Plant to Boston Fern to Coffee Plant to English Ivy to Foxtail Fern to Venus Fly Trap to Wandering Jew to African Violet to Bird of Paradise to Red Spider Lily to Christmas Cactus to String of Pearls and many more. And while there are many different house plants, they are usually grown for the same reasons – decorative purposes, positive psychological effects and health reasons such as indoor air purification.

Special to the News

The Junior Jubilees, the junior choir associated with the Goulbourn Jubilee Singers, was recently in a studio at Algonquin College in Ottawa, recording a song. This was the first time that the Junior Jubilees had been in a recording studio. The Junior Jubilees had performed on the Jubilee Singers’ recent CD “Why We Sing” but the CD was recorded at the Glen Cairn United Church where the choirs present their concerts and not in a studio. In the recording studio at Algonquin College, the Junior Jubilees sang “You Have Made A Difference,” a song written by Brian Asselin. A song that is meant to be a tribute to teachers, it has a moderate rock/pop feel to it.

memberships will be available at the meeting at a cost of $15 per person or $25 for a family. When caring for house plants, factors which make a difference are moisture, light, soil mixture, temperature, humidity, fertilizers, potting and pest control. With regard to moisture, both under-watering and over-watering can be detrimental to a house plant. Intensity of light and duration of light are both factors to consider in providing light to a house plant. House plants are generally grown in potting compost or potting soil, not natural soil. Most house plants are accustomed to growing in indoor climates ranging from 15 degrees Celsius to 25 degrees Celsius. Humidity is another factor essential to the

care of house plants. The more common house plants can usually survive in low humidity environments as long as their roots are kept properly irrigated. Fertilizer is important for house plants as it provides nutrients to the house plant. But it must be applied in appropriate amounts as unnecessary fertilizer can harm a house plant. Proper pot size is another important factor in caring for house plants. A pot that is either too large or too small can impact the plant’s health. For more information about the Stittsville Goulbourn Horticultural Society or about the upcoming October meeting with its presentation on house plants, please email SGHorticultural@gmail.com .

Cantata Singers launching new season Special to the News

For Judy Brush, singing with a high level choir was on her “bucket list” when she retired. So she brazenly auditioned for the Cantata Singers of Ottawa despite very little experience singing with a choir and lo and behold, now five years later, she continues to sing with the group. Of course, the Stittsville resident does have a music background, albeit more instrumental than vocal. She has a degree in music education and has performed in orchestras, chamber music ensembles and bands. She has also conducted choirs, sung with a quartet and occasionally been a singer. Judy really enjoys singing with the Cantata Singers as it involves learning challenging music and bringing it to a high standard of performance. She also notes that the others in the choir are wonderful folks, noting that being part of the Cantata Singers is a real treat due to the professionalism of the rehearsals and the performances. “The variety of the repertoire that we sing, including contemporary music, is also very interesting to me,” she writes in an email. “It’s all about the music and the people.” And you have an opportunity to see and hear the Can-

House plants need the correct moisture, light levels, soil mixture, temperature and humidity in order to flourish. They also need proper fertilizer and correctsized pots in which to grow. You can learn about house plants and their care at the October meeting of the Stittsville Goulbourn Horticultural Society when Donna Christie will be the guest speaker on the topic “The Horrifying, Hilarious, Healthy and Heavenly Aspects of House Plants.” The meeting takes place this coming Tuesday, Oct. 20 at 7:30 p.m. at the Pretty Street Community Centre at the corner of Pretty Street and Orville Street in Stittsville.

tata Singers of Ottawa including Judy perform at its upcoming first concert of the season on Saturday, Oct. 24. Indeed, it is the launching of the choir’s 52nd season. But while the Cantata Singers are entering their 52nd season, it will be the first season for the choir under its new artistic director Andrew McAnerney who has founded choirs and worked with various musical ensembles in the United Kingdom and Europe before coming to Canada in 2012. For this Oct. 24th concert, the Cantata Singers of Ottawa will be performing Sergei Rachmaninoff’s “All-Night Vigil” which is commonly known as “Vespers,” referring to the sunset or evening prayer service as-

sociated with the liturgical day. Composed in 1915, Rachmaninoff’s “All-Night Vigil” is considered a gem of the choral repertoire with 15 movements for an a cappella choir along with alto and tenor soloists. The piece is viewed as at times as exciting as well as being exquisitely beautiful and very demanding of the singers. It is considered as one of Rachmaninoff’s best known and important works. From its first performance 100 years ago, it has been an audience favourite as it is always a thoroughly enjoyable listening experience. To add to the overall mood, the Cantata Singers will be performing Rachmaninoff’s “All-Night Vigil”

Candidates tell students about themselves John Curry

john.curry@metroland.com

Candidates in the new federal riding of Carleton spoke to a crowd of over 200 students in the learning commons at Sacred Heart High School in Stittsville on Wednesday morning, Oct. 7. And what they said included not only the political talk usually associated with candidates seeking election but also included biographical information as well as explanations of their motivation for seeking such elected office. New Democratic Party (NDP) candidate KC Larocque noted that she grew up in Constance Bay, saying that she was raised in the country and still had a lot of country in her as she enjoys activities such as snowmobiling. She admitted that she was not interested in politics growing up but after high school, she worked as a research assistant at a policy organization and then worked for the federal government before getting two degrees from Lakehead University. She then worked as an administrator with the NDP and then as a national organizer for the party, being inspired by the late Jack Layton who was the party leader at the time. Two years ago, she began managing the family business. Larocque said that the area has given her a lot and now it is the time for her to give back, proclaiming herself “ready to fight” for area residents. She said that she does not like the way that the country is currently being run and she got involved in this campaign because she did not want to sit back and let others decide the country’s future. She said that she wants Canada to be a country of which her young daughter can be proud. She also noted that she is running

for election because Canada needs more women involved in politics as currently only 25 percent of MP’s are female. Liberal Party candidate Chris Rodgers told the students that he lives in Kars with his wife Jenny and their young son Cameron. He said that he held many part-time jobs as a youth as well as being involved in sports and other community activities. After high school, he attended a community college and experienced an apprenticeship program before attending university. After university, he went off to see the world and learn to speak French, living for a year in Europe. He also spent a year studying abroad. He has worked for ten years in the federal public service and with a Masters degree in political science, he has taught at Algonquin College. Rodgers has served as an international elections observer in both Ec-

uador and Romania. He said that the time that he has spent abroad has shown him what an amazing country Canada is. He praised Canada’s commitment to fairness and civility in society, saying that they are the values that make Canada great. He said that he believes in these values of fairness and civility and that they are among the reasons that he decided to be a Liberal candidate in this election. When we cooperate, we can achieve great things, he said. Deborah Coyne of the Green Party was born and raised in Ottawa, growing up in the 1960’s and 1970’s. She said that she is running to bring about a healthier democracy, one in which Parliament works to serve the people, not politicians. She accused the Conservative government of being devoid of vision and of pursuing deliberately partisan goals.

She said that people must take back Canada as the country needs a new kind of politics. She said that the Green Party stands for principled, thoughtful representation, calling it the party for the people. Coyne said that she was involved in the debates about both the Meech Lake and Charletown Accords, saying that that experience showed her how to make a difference when people work together. She ran for the leadership of the Liberal Party against, among others, current Liberal Party leader Justin Trudeau. She said that she left the Liberal Party because of the party’s unprincipled support for Bill C51 and because the Liberal Party in her view has become too much of a party machine. Conservative Party candidate Pierre Poilievre recalled that when he was 17 years old, half his current age, he missed voting in a federal

election by one day as he turned 18 that year on June 3 with the election taking place on June 2. He said that he was born and raised in Calgary, earning a degree in International Relations at the University of Calgary. He travelled in Europe and the Middle East and worked for Telus and then on Parliament Hill as an aide before deciding to run for political office in the former Nepean-Carleton riding. He has been an MP for ten years now and currently lives in Greely which is in the new Carleton riding in which he is seeking election in the upcoming Oct. 19 election. He said that when he was first elected as an MP at 25 years of age, he was the youngest elected MP at that time. He said that this shows that the electoral system is open to everyone.

He said that he is a Conservative because he believes that government should do only a few things and do them right rather than try to do a lot of things poorly. Poilievre said that his three pillars of beliefs are family, work and community, lamenting that if government gets too big, it can adversely impact these pillars. Besides giving biographical and motivational information, the candidates also provided an outline of their platforms in this federal election campaign. KC Larocque of the NDP said that the NDP plan is for responsible spending and balancing the budget. She said that the NDP will make it easier for students to attend university or college while noting that the NDP plan calls for the creation of 40,000 jobs for young people. The NDP also supports apprenticeships and paid internships in addition to a $15 minimum wage. Chris Rodgers of the Liberal Party said that the Liberal Party wants to provide opportunities for young people, pledging to create 40,000 youth jobs in the next three years. He said that the Liberal Party supports apprenticeships and paid internships but also wants to invest in infrastructure so that youth have the opportunity to achieve. He said that the Liberal Party wants to encourage innovation, saying that the environment provides a huge opportunity for jobs by the development of clean energy technologies.

Deborah Coyne of the Green Party said that the Green Party is committed to carbon neutrality by the year 2050. She called Bill C51 as “bad and overreaching” legislation, calling for its repeal so that the legislation could be done properly. Pierre Poilievre of the Conservative Party said that the Conservatives have reduced the tax rate for small business so that small business can help create more jobs. He said that the Conservatives believe in trade, having signed free trade agreements with about 40 countries in the past decade. He said that the Conservative government has established apprenticeship grants and has increased the number of apprenticeships for youth from 300,000 to 450,000. He expressed his belief in balanced budgets, saying that if a government spends money that it does not have, it has to borrow the money and eventually pay it back. He said that today’s youth will have to pay back any debts accumulated by today’s government. Citing two terrorist attacks on Canadian soil last fall, he defended the government’s decision to participate in the international coalition to fight against ISIL in both Syria and Iraq. This candidates session at Sacred Heart wound up with several questions posed to the candidates by students in the audience. The session was moderated by Sacred Heart grade ten students Michaela Tourigny and Amogh Ravishankar.

One million visitors at Saunders Farm Special to the News

Submitted

Members of the Latour and Bimm families, foreground, are honoured for being the 1,000,000th visitors to the annual Haunting Season at Saunders Farm at Munster on Saturday, Oct. 3 about 1 p.m. Both families received lifetime passes to Saunders Farm. At the far left, standing, are Bill and Anne Saunders of Saunders Farm while at the right are Angela Grant and Mark Saunders of Saunders Farm. Others in the photo include Saunders Farm characters such as Sam Scarecrow, the Pumpkin Princess and Barry Scary.

It’s now one million and counting! On Saturday, Oct. 3 about 1 p.m., Saunders Farm in Munster welcomed its one millionth guest to its Haunting Season. In fact, there were two families who were chosen for this honour. Both the Latour and the Bimm families had paid their admissions to Saunders Farm at that time and so both families were declared as the 1,000,000th visitors to Saunders Farm during Haunting Season. Both families received lifetime passes to Saunders Farm in honour of the occasion. Now in its 24th year, Saunders Farm welcomes over 50,000 visitors each October for its renowned Haunting Season and Fright Fest. And it all evolved from a “Haunted Hayride” offered 24 years ago to what has become the area’s largest independently run festival. As Mark Saunders, Director of FUN at Saunders Farm points out, when Haunting Season started, it was more or less a case of just wanting to open up the farm and its haunted hayride to visitors. Yet, over the ensuing years, slow incremental progress has taken place with more and more features added. Indeed, as Mark points out, Haunting Season is still a work in progress, with new innovative ideas being added each year. And there’s always more to do. As Mark says, each year when Haunting Season opens, there are new attractions but there are also many things that the folks at Saunders Farm had thought of but regret not having implemented for that season. That’s why there’s always more to do for “next year.” Haunting Season is, as Mark says, a work in progress. See SAUNDERS FARM, page 37

Saunders Farm welcomes 1,000,000th visitor Continued from page 35

There’s some amazing new attractions and features at this year’s 24th Haunting Season at Saunders Farm. There’s improved haunts and daytime activities. For instance, Farmer Bill’s playhouse has a new slide that will add to that attraction’s appeal and fun. There’s an expanded Cemetery Stroll Graveyard that exists by day and that is transformed into a Cemetery Scare Zone by night. There are new Ag-Arcade games such as casket ball, pumpkin toss and Skee-gourd, a Saunders Farm version of Skee ball. And don’t forget the Ghost Town Stage which will be offering an all-new original show “The Reboot’ning” And besides the haunted attractions and live performances, Saunders Farm’s Haunting Season this year is offering a Cowboy Cookout BBQ which is a new 15 foot BBQ on which the grilling will be great for ribs, burgers and chicken legs, all served with beans, corn on the cob and baked potatoes. There’s also the Tipsy Tombstone Tavern offering fresh soup, chili, stew and macaroni and cheese, in addition to Kichesippi bears, Ontario wines and spooky cocktails. Youngsters and any others with a sweet tooth can enjoy the Sugar Shack and its cotton candy, candy and caramel apples, lollypops and candy. Each year Saunders Farm invests a significant portion of its revenue into new and innovative attractions to enhance the guest experience. Saunders Farm now features five major “Fright Sites,” a dozen food venues that feature locally sourced farm fresh foods, its annual Ghost Town Stage Show and numerous whimsical play structures and

games. In the past year, for instance, Saunders Farm has invested over 20 percent of its revenues in new innovative attractions. Not only is Saunders Farm’s Haunting Season the only major festival in the city of Ottawa to operate without any government funding, but also Haunting Season functions not with unpaid volunteers like other festivals but with over 200 paid staff. The mission of Saunders Farm is to create a space that provides fun, food and

Special to the News

Pumpkins have a life beyond Halloween night. In Stittsville, pumpkins, fresh from their Halloween stint as jack ‘o lanterns, show up at the annual Stittsville Pumpkin Parade at Village Square Park at the corner of Stittsville Main Street and Abbott Street. Now in its third year, this Pumpkin Parade on the day after Halloween sees the jack ‘o lanterns set up throughout the park where they enjoy one last moment of glory and where they bring one final scene of their Halloween splendour. This year it’s all happening on Sunday, Nov. 1. And even if you not have a jack ‘o lantern but just want to enjoy seeing hundreds of jack ‘o lanterns filling up Village Square park, you are certainly most welcome to drop by, anytime between 6 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. Those wishing to display their jack ‘o lanterns in this Pumpkin Parade should take them to Village Square Park by 6 p.m. There will be prizes given away for some of the best jack ‘o lanterns on display at this Pumpkin Parade. These prizes are donated by local businesses. For instance, The Glen Scottish Restaurant and Pub has donated a gift certificate for a winner in the adult category. Tracy’s Art Studio has once again this year donated a prize as well. And there are more! All in all, this Pumpkin Parade at Village Square Park will be a great way to wrap up Halloween 2015 for you and your family. It’s all happening on Sunday, Nov. 1 from 6 p.m. to 7:30 p.m.

Rotary Peace Park opens John Curry

john.curry@metroland.com

The Rotary Peace Park in Stittsville is now a reality. Located at W.J. Bell Park, it was officially opened on a sunny, warm afternoon on Thursday, Oct. 8, marking the first peace park in the city of Ottawa which features a labyrinth. “Wow, what a day!” is how city of Ottawa Stittsville ward councillor Shad Qadri opened his remarks at the opening ceremony, noting that the opening ceremony was memorable not only because of the glorious weather that day but also because the completion of the project provides a setting that hopefully people will enjoy in the days, months and years to come. He used three words to describe this new Rotary Peace Park – inclusivity, connectivity and tranquility. He said that the park is an accessible space for everyone in the community and in the wider city. He said that the Peace Park and labyrinth will be a place where reflections will be made, stories will be told, decisions will be made and friends will be made. Councillor Qadri thanks former Rotary Club of Ottawa – Stittsville member Val Wright for initially bringing forth the idea of a peace park in the community. He also noted the dedication and perseverance of the Rotary Club members in bringing about the completion of the project, saying that the Rotary Club is leaving the legacy of this Peace Park for future generations to explore and enjoy. City of Ottawa deputy mayor Mark Taylor, representing the city at the ceremony, noted that of all of the opening

ceremonies that he had attended including bridges and other facilities, this Rotary Peace Park was the only facility being opened in the name of peace. He said that this new Rotary Peace Park was a perfect example of the kind of projects which the city “Better Neighbourhoods Program” has been established to make happen. The “Better Neighbourhoods Program” provided $30,000 in funding for this Rotary Peace Park. “This is a wonderful addition to Stittsville but even more a wonderful addition to our city,” deputy mayor Taylor said. He said that peace emanates from the Peace Park and he thanked the Rotary Club for this “gift” to the community and to the city. Bruce Nicol of Tartan Homes, a home builder in Stittsville and a major corporate sponsor of the Rotary Peace Park, in his remarks at the opening ceremony, said that it was a “no brainer” for Tartan Homes, as a good corporate citizen in the community, to contribute to this Peace Park venture. He admitted to a familiarity with labyrinths, saying that “walking a labyrinth is peace inducing.” He encouraged people to walk the labyrinth, going all the way in and then walking all the way out. “You will come out a more peaceful person every time,” he said. In her remarks at the opening ceremony, Rotary Club president Rosemary Brummell noted that this Rotary Club project took a little longer than originally anticipated to complete. It was back in Jan. 2014 that the Rotary Club received word that it would be receiving funding from the city’s “Better Neighbourhoods Program.” President Brummell praised three Rotary Club members who played key roles in seeing this Rotary Peace Park project to completion, namely Brad Spriggs for its design and construction, Theresa Qadri for fundraising and Carolyn Clark for liaison with the city of Ottawa. This Rotary Peace Park project involved the youth of Stittsville in that students had the opportunity to submit art work on the subject of “Peace.” Selected art work from these student submissions has now been attached to the bicycle racks and to the garbage receptacle at the Peace Park. Another special feature of the Rotary Peace Park John Curry/Metroland is the brick walkway leading from the parking lot to Chloe Levesque, who is almost three years old, looks up at the blue and the labyrinth. yellow Rotary balloons attached to one of the plaques at the new Rotary See PEACE BANNER, page 43

SENS EXTRA

Better, faster, stronger Sens first round pick leaves camp with contract but returns to junior adam.kveton@metroland.com

The Ottawa Senators first pick of the NHL 2015 draft, Thomas Chabot, has left Ottawa with a contract and two main aspects of his game to work on to improve his chances of making the team’s roster at next season’s training camp. The club signed Chabot, an 18-year-old, 6-foot-2 defenceman to a three-year entry-level contract, general manager Bryan Murray announced on Sept. 30. Though Chabot has now returned to play with the Saint John Sea Dogs in the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League, he said he was very satisfied with his first training camp experience with the Senators. “They told me I had a great camp and I knew I had a great camp,” said Chabot. “It’s hard to go (to camp) and not make it (on the team), but I wasn’t really thinking about it. I was just focusing to get to learn and enjoy the experience and live it day by day and try to get better,” he

said. “To be back now and to get back in junior with a contract in your hands, it feels real good.” The training camp was one of the first opportunities Chabot has had to play with and against players older than himself, he said. “Everything was quicker; everybody was stronger, so it was something really different.” While Chabot worked to adjust his game, using his own speed and trying to simplify his game, he said speed and power are the two major things he will have to work on. “You’ve always got to be faster, but I’m going to try to be stronger … to be strategic for me to battle against older guys,” Chabot said. “I have some things to learn in my game, but first thing is to be stronger in my game and develop physically.” Chabot said he is aiming to become a player with a strong two-way game with an emphasis on offence, and strong skating ability who’s not afraid to carry the puck.

He listed Blackhawks defenceman Duncan Keith and L.A. Kings defenceman Drew Doughty among his inspirations. Returning to the Sea Dogs, Chabot has earned an assist after two games in which the Sea Dogs defeated the Gatineau Olympiques 4-3 and the Shawinigan Cataractes 5-2. “I know we have a great team, we have a lot of good players, so I know it’s going to be an exciting year,” he said. Last year, Chabot recorded 41 points with 12 goals and 29 assists, in addition to 62 penalty minutes in 66 games. Asked who his dream team was growing up, Chabot said it was the Montreal Canadiens, but added, “I wouldn’t mind anywhere to get drafted. (Getting drafted by the Sens) was something special for me.”

Peace banner unfurled Continued from page 39

This pathway to the labyrinth is lined with bricks inscribed with messages provided by those who made a $200 donation to the project. These messages include in memoriam messages, family names, business and organization names and other messages. Among those attending this opening ceremony for the Rotary Peace Park in Stittsville were Rotary District Governor Claude LaLiberte, Rotary District Governor-elect Nabil Oudeh, Area Governor Hadi Mortada and Easter Ottawa Area Governor Fay Campbell. Among the presentations made at the opening ceremony was the presentation of a large banner featuring peace symbols which was made by youngsters at the Jackson Trails School Age Program at St. Stephen Catholic School in Stittsville. The banner was unfurled at the ceremony to a round of applause. The banner will be kept by the Jackson Trails School Age Program but will be available to the Rotary Club for any events at which it is needed. A number of special certificates were presented at the opening ceremony, acknowledging the contributions and support of various individuals to the project. These recipients included city of Ottawa mayor Jim Watson; city of Ottawa Stittsville ward councillor Shad Qadri; Norma Strachan,

John Smit, Paul landry, Gerald Martin, and Nancy Wynands, all of the city of Ottawa who worked on the project; labyrinth expert Ruth Richardson; and major sponsor Bruce Nicol of Tartan Homes. A number of boulders adjacent to the parking lot now bear plaques acknowledging the contributions of major sponsors and donors to the project. These plaques were unveiled as part of the opening ceremony. These include plaques for the Regional Group, Phoenix Homes, Minto, Mattamy Homes, Tartan Homes, Richcraft Homes and the Rotary Club of Ottawa – Goulbourn. Following the ceremony, there was some live entertainment including Rotary Club member Leo Maiorino singing some songs. In fact, Leo started off the entertainment with a most appropriate song, “Peaceful Easy Feeling,” the 1972 song by the American rock band the Eagles that has become one of the band’s most popular songs over the years. Greg Curry provided the sound system for the opening ceremony and subsequent entertainment while Scrumptious Creative Catering of Stittsville was on hand to provide post-ceremony refreshments. The Rotary Peace Park also was the site of a luminary walk later that evening. One thousand luminaries were set up on the labyrinth and glowed in the evening darkness as a luminary walk was held on the labyrinth. Stittsville News - Thursday, October 15, 2015 43

Helene Hutchings, left, and Ruth Richardson, right, are among those who are participating in a Movement Mandala dance on the labyrinth at the new Rotary Peace Park at W.J. Bell memorial Park in Stittsville just prior to the official opening ceremony for the new Peace Park on Thursday afternoon, Oct. 8.

Movement Mandala dance on labyrinth Special to the News

Before the official opening of the Rotary Peace Park and its labyrinth on Thursday afternoon, Oct. 8, the labyrinth was a site of some fun as those attending the 3 p.m. ceremony were urged to join a Movement Mandala dance on the labyrinth. It was soon filled with people as they were guided through a Movement Mandala dance to accompanying music. This was the first happening on the new labyrinth. This Movement Mandala dance was led by Wendy Morrell, president of the Sacred Dance Guild. The word “mandala” is from the classical Indian language of Sanskrit which is loosely translated to mean ‘Circle.” A mandala is far more than a simple shape, however, as it represents wholeness and can be seen as a model for the organizational structure of life itself – a cosmic diagram that reminds us of our relation to the infinite, the world that extends both beyond and within our bodies and minds. Describing both material and non-material realities, the mandala appears in all aspects of life: the celestial circles we call earth, sun and moon as well as conceptual circles of friends, family and community.

Most mandalas are visual representations with intricate colours and shapes. The Sacred Dance Guild has created a “moving” mandala with participants using their whole bodies to actualize the conceptual circle of mandala in and as community. The mandala moves to the musical soundscape “Mandala 7” by Evren Celimli. It is a piece that calls people from ancient times to the deepest reaches of the soul. There are eight simple repetitive movements used in the Mandala Movement to symbolize a journey. They are: I am here in the present in this place and this space; I engage my heart in all that I do; I reach out from my heart to enter community; I reach up to recognize the universal, the divine and our part in the collective; I bring my hands together to symbolize my personal commitment to the universe; I bring my hands back to my heart in a full circle; I reach up and out with my right hand, recognizing that I give from my heart; and I reach up and out with my left hand, recognizing that I received from others into my heart. In this Movement Mandala dance, two ancient meditative forms come together – the Mandala Movement and the new labyrinth, bring together two practices encouraging peace in this new Rotary Peace Park in Stittsville.

The ‘V’ Bush

Special to the News

John Brummell/Metroland

‘Peace’ banner Holding up a banner with a “peace” message which was made by the youngsters at the Jackson Trails School Age Program at St. Stephen Catholic School in Stittsville and was unveiled at the official opening of the new Rotary Peace Park at W.J. Bell Memorial Park in Stittsville on Thursday afternoon, Oct. 8 are Theresa Qadri, left, a member of the Rotary Club of Ottawa – Stittsville, and Kathleen Wilson, right, from the Jackson Trails School Age Program Centre.

Joan Palmer, a long time resident of Cherry Drive adjacent to W.J. Bell Memorial Park in Stittsville, has written the following thoughts about Bell Park and the new Rotary Peace Park that is located there, entitling her words “The ‘V” Bush, better known as Bell Memorial Peace Park”: “In the spring of 1968, my husband and I with our three small children bought a little bungalow on Cherry Drive in Stittsville. Right away we loved Stittsville! The neighbours welcomed us into the community and we all soon became friends. In the 1970’s and 80’s, the square block of homes flanked by Fernbank Road, Cherry Drive, Bell Park Street and Sunnyside Avenue housed many young families and at one point 33 children. Many of their mothers were stay-at-home moms and so the kids all played together every day. Hillary Clinton wrote “It Takes A Village” to raise a child. Well, in our case, it took a village block! A favourite place to play for the children was “The ‘V’ Bush,” as the kids all called it. The ‘V’ Bush, so called because of the

fact that it is shaped like the letter ‘V,’ was a wonderful place. You could swing from the tree branches, build forts and tree houses, play Tarzan or hide and seek, catch fire flies at dusk and on and on! One of my daughters told me that there were even a few stolen “first kisses” involved. One of the neighbours said that she was sure that all of her husband’s wood working tools ended up in the ‘V’ Bush along with every dad’s scrap lumber. On Oct. 8 some of those neighbours and many of their friends gathered to see the official opening of the new labyrinth in the ‘V’ Bush, now officially known as “Bell Memorial Peace Park.” This beautiful labyrinth was built by the Rotary Club of OttawaStittsville. On the pathway leading up to the labyrinth are bricks inscribed with names and donated by businesses, the community and families “in memory” of a love one, etc. Our family is proud to have two bricks on the pathway, one with our family name and one in memory of our still-born baby daughter who never had a chance to play in the ‘V’ Bush. May it bring peace to all who visit!”

Bell Warriors hold Homecoming Day Special to the News

An inaugural Homecoming Day was used as the occasion to mark the 60th anniversary year of the Bell Warriors Football Club. For this special Homecoming Day, all four Warriors tackle teams competed against the Rideau Redblacks of Brockville on the new football field at the University of Ottawa on Less Avenue on Sunday, Oct. 4. As part of this special day, the Warriors raffle off a pair of Ottawa Senators tickets at each of the four games. These tickets had been donated by former Warriors player and coach Chris Hyndman. Donations were accepted throughout the day in support of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, with almost

$200 being raised for the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation. At half time of the third game of the day which was a Pee Wee game, city of Ottawa College Ward councillor Rick Chiarelli presented a signed Ottawa RedBlacks Justin Phillips #44 jersey to the Warriors. The jersey is going to be used to help raise funds for the Warriors football program. Justin Phillips, who plays for the Ottawa RedBlacks of the Canadian Football League, is a former Bell Warrior. The Homecoming Day celebrations also include the presence of the Ottawa RedBlacks Cheer Team and the RedBlacks mascot Big Joe. On the football field, the Warriors

tykes were involved in a nail biter against the Rideau Redblacks, losing 6-0. The Warriors mosquitos won 24-6 while the Warrior Pee Wees continued their undefeated season with a 64-0 victory which clinched the National Capital Amateur Football Association Western Conference Championship for the second straight

year. The Warriors Bantams lost 2210 to the Rideau Redblacks bantam team. The Warriors used the occasion of this inaugural Homecoming Day to formally present Warrior alumni Tyler Scott with his $1,000 Bell Warriors Jim Wagdin post-secondary

scholarship. This is the Bell Warriors 60th anniversary year as the Bell Warriors Football Club was founded in 1955. Since that time, it has provided tackle football and other programs for youth from Stittsville, Richmond, Munster, Goulbourn, Bell Corners, Bayshore and Britannia.

The Stittsville Royals are continuing to win. The Royals, playing in the Richardson Division of the Central Canada Hockey league Tier 2, recorded their eighth and ninth victories of the season this past week. The Royals now sport a record of nine wins and only one loss in ten games, good for 18 points and first place in the eight-team Richardson Division. Last Sunday afternoon at the Goulbourn Recreation Complex on Shea Road in Stittsville, the Royals used an unanswered four goal outburst in the first period to go on to defeat the visiting Winchester Hawks by a 5-2 score. It was 4-0 for the Royals after the first period and 5-0 for the home team after two periods before the Winchester Hawks scored the only two goals of the third period to make the final score 5-2 in favour of the Royals. Five players shared the goal scoring in this game for the Royals: Matt Allan, Mike DiBello, Jordan Boutilier, Troy Hass and Colin Baggio. Jake Oliver of the Royals had a big game, picking up four assists. Earning single assists in the game for the Royals were Aaron Hickie, Marc Bertrand, Matt Allan, Ryan DiMillo, Shane Hiley and Ryan Cullen. The Royals had 38 shots on the Winchester goal including 19 shots in the first period. The Winchester Hawks had 36 shots on Royals goalie Connor Ellis. The Winchester Hawks had 94 minutes in penalties in the game as a result of 20 infractions. The Royals received 61 minutes in penalties on 13 infractions. This victory over the visiting Winchester Hawks was the second win of the past week for the Royals.

On Wednesday, Oct. 7, the Royals travelled to the Leo Boivin Community Centre in Prescott to take on the hometown Prescott Flyers. It was a close game but the Stittsville Royals came home with a 7-6 victory. It was 2-1 for the Royals after the first period and 5-4 for the Royals after the second period before the teams both scored two goals in the third period as the game ended 7-6 for the Royals. Jack Chudleigh and Aaron Hickie both had two goals for the Royals in this game. Single goals were scored by Clay Carter, Ryan Cullen and Mike DiBello. Mason Farnes, Colin Baggio and Jordan Boutilier all picked up two assists for the Royals in this game. Single assists were earned by Jack Chudleigh, Marc Bertrand and Aaron Hickie. The Stittsville Royals had 33 shots on the Prescott goal in this game while the Prescott Flyers had 34 shots on Royals goalie Spyros Koskinas. Aaron Hickie of the Royals is currently in second place in the league scoring with 21 points thanks to 10 goals and 11 assists.

MARY COOK Mary Cook’s Memories The cabbages were ready.  The heads filled four bushel baskets in the summer kitchen, and Mother had covered them with old quilts.   She said to keep them safe from an early frost, which wasn’t likely since it was still September, and they were well protected in the snug summer kitchen.   We knew it was to keep the mice off them!   Mother worried constantly that a mouse would come in contact with anything we might eventually put in our mouths! It was a Saturday night and everything was ready.   The big barrel had been well scoured, sundried, and now rolled into the kitchen waiting for the shredded cabbage. We always made sauerkraut on a Saturday night.   It was then the whole family would be together, and this was a true family venture!  And it all happened around the old pine kitchen table that had been scrubbed within an inch of its life. Father had the shredder ready.   It was a wood box affair about ten inches wide, a couple feet long, with a piece of board smooth as silk from many years of usage, fit-

Sauerkraut making with everyone

ting exactly the top of the box.  In this board, was a sharp blade imbedded in the middle, and only Father manned this part of the operation.   Everett was once allowed to use the shredder and ended up with a goodly portion of a finger cut off which old Doctor Murphy had to stitch back on!   So Father took no chances.   He was the shredder.  Every one of us had a job to do when it came to sauerkraut night.   All decked out in long white aprons, (Father thought Mother was taking this cleanliness a bit too far, but he wore one anyway to stop an argument which he was sure to lose), and with our hands scrubbed red, we were ready to begin. Emerson and Everett were in charge of bringing in the heavy bushel baskets of cabbage heads.   Earl took the heads out, one at a time, and handed them to Audrey and me sitting at one end of the table.  Our job was to peel off the outer leaves, and toss them into one of the empty baskets (they would be fed to the pigs).   Mother cored the heads and handed them, one after another to Father at the shredder. One head at a time was placed in the board with a groove and blade in it, and Father shoved

the cabbage back and forth over the blade, filling the cavity underneath.   Once it was full, Father dumped the shredded cabbage into the big barrel beside him. Every so often, the entire operation would stop, and Mother would take the wood plunger we used to whip cream into butter, and pound down the cabbage in the barrel, take a cup of coarse salt from the bag and toss it over the shredded cabbage. I loved the smell of the cabbage, which I was sure started to ferment as soon as it hit the barrel, but of course, it didn’t.   It would have to sit for weeks before we could truly call it sauerkraut! By the time the last bit of cabbage had been shredded and pounded down into the barrel, it was ready for Father to put the round disc of well scrubbed wood on top of it all.   A large stone, so big only Father and Everett or Emerson could lift it, had been sitting in the dish pan filled with clean water from the pump.   It too, had been scrubbed clean, and I loved to hear Father tell how it was the very same stone used by his Father when he was a young boy.   The very same stone used to press down

the shredded cabbage years and years ago.   I would look at the stone, and marvel at the mystery of it all.   It always amazed me how we seemed to have the exact amount of cabbage to fill the barrel.   It would take the strength of Father and the three boys to carefully roll the filled barrel out to the summer kitchen, where it would again be covered with a clean sheet and then a quilt.   Days and sometimes weeks would pass before we could use the sauerkraut.   And often it would be frozen solid in the barrel, and had to be chipped with a special tool made just for that purpose. As Fall stretched into winter, out in the summer kitchen was a barrel that would augment our meals, and we would enjoy the fruits of a true family evening...and savour the wonderful German dishes Father so often made.   Just like his Father did a generation before him.

10K, half marathon, 2K Family Fun Run in 9 RUN RUN john.curry@metroland.com

The sixth annual 9 RUN RUN is here! Hundreds of feet will be pounding the pavement and trails in the Stittsville area this Saturday, Oct. 17 as a 10K, a half marathon and a 2K Family Fun Run take place. The Bushtukah 10K and half marathon will be starting at 9 a.m. and at 9:15 a.m. from the start line on Abbott Street just west of Stittsville Main Street. The 2K BMO Nesbitt Burns Family Fun Run will start at 10 a.m. All those who finish will receive a special medal which has been designed to commemorate Stittsville’s heritage. Algonquin College’s Police Foundations program has provided over 100 students who will serve as volunteers to help run the event. The Shoe Bank will be on site at this year’s 9 RUN RUN event to collect gently used shoes which are then distributed to people in need. Thanks to Rebel Tents, there will be tents set up at Village Square Park at the corner of Stittsville Main Street and

Abbott Street to provide shelter for participants. Entertainment at the park will include Running Naked performing live. Both Country 94 radio and CTV Ottawa will be on site, covering the event. Participants will be able to enjoy a massage thanks to Moore Chiropractic of Stittsville. Dymon Storage, which is a major event sponsor, will once again this year be providing photos taken by Zoom Photograph free to all participants. The actual race sponsors are BMO Nesbitt Burns for the 2K Family Fun Run and Bushtukah for the 10K and half marathon runs. Participants will be able to enjoy a pre-race pancake breakfast at Village Square Park thanks to Hudson Insurance and Enbridge Gas. In addition, McDonalds McCafe will be on site bright and early to serve up steaming coffee for participants. At the finish line, Saucony will be providing gifts for participants. And things don’t end when the runs are over. There’s the annual Chiefs Chili Cook Off in which the chiefs for the police, paramed-

ics and fire department square off to determine which one has made the best chili. In addition, Jeff and Angela Robinson of Scrumptious Creative Catering in Stittsville will be providing chili for all of the participants and also spectators. The chili is included in the registration fee while spectators are welcome to make a donation. Last year over 900 pounds of chili was prepared, so you know that this is a popular feature of the event. To date over $100,000 has been raised by this 9 RUN RUN emergency services run for Do It For Daron, The Royal and youth mental health in the community. Funds raised through 9 RUN RUN support two key initiatives: “I It Just Me? Conversations About Youth Mental Health” and the Do It For Daron Mach-Gaensslen Chair in Suicide Prevention Research at The Royal. “Is It Just Me? Conversations About Mental Health” is an educational program that helps students understand how their thoughts and feelings affect their mental health. Students attending “Is It Just Me?” learn about mental health from a neuroscientist, a psychologist, an addictions

counsellor and a young adult living with mental illness. Since 2011, over 6,000 high school, college and university students have attended “Is It Just Me?” The Do It For Daron MachGaensslen Chair in Suicide Prevention Research at The Royal has as its aim to explore and create best practices to reduce the number of suicide attempts and completed suicides in Canada. This means building knowledge and working with health care providers, community organizations and families to translate this knowledge into real solutions to prevent suicide and the devastating impact which suicide has on Canadian families. Do It For Daron (DIFD) is a youth-driven initiative focused on raising awareness

and inspiring conversations about youth mental health. It was created by the family and friends of Daron Richardson

who lost her life to suicide. DIFD supports programs and initiatives aimed at transforming youth mental health.

Special to the News

Derek McKellar has had a 37 year banking career and now, for the first time, he will be working in the same community in which he lives. That’s because Derek, who has lived in Richmond for the past eight years to be close to his children and grandchildren in the Ottawa area, is the new manager at the TD Canada Trust branch in Richmond. He replaces Christopher Williams who was the branch’s first manager since its opening in Oct. 2014. Derek has worked in various positions with the bank all around Ontario over the

years. Most recently he served as manager of the TD Canada

Derek McKellar

Trust branch in Smiths Falls for the past five years. When the job opening for manager of the TD Canada Trust branch came up as manager Christopher Williams was moving to the TD Canada Trust branch at the Farm Boy plaza in Kanata, Derek applied for the job, an especially attractive one to him since he lives in Richmond. Derek has become a runner in recent years and can be seen running around the Richmond Oaks neighbourhood. He has run in the annual Richmond Road Race and last year he took part in his first Ottawa Marathon.

Community blood donor clinic in Stittsville Special to the News

Canadian Blood Services is holding a community blood donor clinic in Stittsville this coming Wednesday, Oct. 21. This blood donor clinic will be held from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. at Holy Spirit Catholic School on Stittsville Main Street in Stittsville. All blood donations at community blood donor clinics held by Canadian

Blood Services like this one are most appreciated because every minute of every day in Canada, someone needs blood and the only way that the blood is available when needed is through the generosity and caring of blood donors who willingly attend community blood donor clinics to donate blood. It often requires many units of blood to help just one patient. A car

accident victim, for example, can need up to 50 units of blood which means 50 blood donations are needed just to help that one patient. Leukemia patients can need as many as eight units of blood a week as part of their treatment. Canadian Blood Services, which organizes these community blood donor clinics, is a national, not-forprofit charitable organization that

Trustees of Munster Union Cemetery Special to the News

The Munster Union Cemetery itself dates back to 1886 when Thomas Tubman and his wife, the former Isabella Hill, provided two acres of land as the site for the cemetery. This was due to Mr. Tubman’s belief that the Munster area should have a non-denominational cemetery in its midst to meet the needs of those for whom burial in a church cemetery was not preferred or possible. The Munster Union Cemetery Incorporated looked after the Munster

The Munster Union Cemetery in Munster is overseen by a Board of Trustees. Ken Jones is the current chair of the Board of Trustees while the trustees are Joan Bradley, Wendell Bleeks, Lillian Hobbs and Gary Simpson. Linda Preston is the secretary-treasurer while Lloyd Fisher is in charge of cemetery maintenance. The Munster Union Cemetery is a registered charity.

Union Cemetery from its beginnings until 1942 when the operation of the cemetery was turned over to a Board of Trustees. The original two acre site of the Munster Union Cemetery has grown in recent years. In February, 1980, a parcel of land was obtained along the south side of the original cemetery. In April, 2002, land was obtained extending the cemetery property west to the Munster Road. However, this parcel of land only included the

land on the south side of the access road into the original cemetery site. Extensive fundraising and donations enabled the Board of Trustees to purchase this parcel of land, thus ensuring that the cemetery would never become landlocked. As for the land on the north side of the access road, extending from the original cemetery to the Munster Road, this was acquired by the Board of Trustees thanks to a donation made by Ronald and Patricia

Rodgers endorsed by past NDP, Green candidates Local Liberal candidate Chris Rodgers has received the endorsements of two local past candidates from different parties. Phil Brown, Nepean-Carleton NDP candidate in 2008 and 2004 and Lori Gadzala, NepeanCarleton Green candidate in 2006 and 2008, have both thrown their support to Rodgers in an effort to defeat the Harper Conservatives in the 2015 election. The pastcandidates have agreed to serve as the Honorary Campaign CoChairs for Rodgers’ 2015 election bid. Brown, a planning and development consultant and longtime community volunteer, said, “From our first meeting, I’ve been impressed with Chris Rodgers as a candidate and future Member of Parliament. Chris is a true progressive and the only candidate capable of bringing real change to our community. Plus, he’ll make an exceptional MP. My message to all those who want to defeat the Conservatives, vote Rodgers.” Gadzala, who operates a technology marketing firm in Manotick, explained

“This election is about making a positive change locally. That’s why I’m endorsing Chris Rodgers. I know Chris will make a thoughtful and sincere Member of Parliament. As a Green, I believe a healthy environment and a strong economy go hand-in-hand. I also believe in meaningful democratic reform. The best way to express those principles in this riding is to vote for Chris Rodgers.” For his part, Rodgers noted, “I’m extremely proud to have the support of these two

individuals. They’re both people of tremendous community and business experience. As my Campaign Co-Chairs, they truly demonstrate that this election is not about political parties—it’s about positive change for our community.” Collectively, the Campaign CoChairs stated, “We’re very proud to endorse Chris. This is not a matter of strategic voting—it’s about electing the best progressive candidate for Carleton. That person is Chris Rodgers.” For information, please call 613-222-8621 Authorized by the official agent for Chris Rodgers R0023503795-1015
