Volunteers needed for Parade of Lights John Curry john.curry@metroland.com

EMC news - The annual Parade of Lights is one of the highlight events of the year in Stittsville. Thousands line Stittsville Main Street to see the colourful floats and entries pass by. Organized by the Stittsville Village Association (SVA) with the help of the Stittsville firefighters, it’s a memorable evening for everyone. And while this year there is even more interest than ever being expressed by businesses and organizations wishing to enter a float in the parade, there is a danger that this year’s parade may have to be cancelled. That’s because there is a lack of volunteers to date for an essential part of the parade – looking after the barricades that block off Stittsville Main Street from the side streets. This is causing worry to SVA president Marilyn Jenkins. Here’s her words on the dilemma that she is facing: “With just over a month to go until the parade, I am now in a position where I have to commit to the police as to how many volunteers we will have on the parade route. As you can image, if there are no volunteers, there cannot be a pa-

rade.” So, it’s that simple – volunteers are needed to look after the traffic barricades along the parade route. Each one of the side streets intersecting with Stittsville Main Street along the parade route has to be blocked off not only with a barricade but also with volunteers there to ensure that the barricade is respected by motorists. All of these volunteers are provided with reflective safety vests by the SVA which organizes the parade. These safety vests not only ensure the visibility of the volunteers wearing them but also identify them as ones in authority at a particular barricade. There is, of course, a benefit to being a volunteer at one of these barricades. It means that you have a front row seat – well, standing room – for the parade as it passes by your location on the parade route. Being a barricade volunteers only takes a couple of hours and is a great way of contributing to the community while also ensuring that one of the community’s signature events takes place. It is also a good way for high school students to pick up a couple of community services hours. Anyone who would like more infor-

The parade proceeds south through the Stittsville Main Street/Carp Road intersection and along Stittsville Main Street. At the Abbott Street intersection at Village Square Park, there is a public address commentator who identifies the various floats as they pass by. The parade continues on along Stittsville Main Street to Carleton Cathcart Street (where St. Thomas Anglican Church is located) where the parade ends. After the parade, there is a brief ceremony at Village Square Park at the corner of Stittsville Main Street and Abbott Street at which the Christmas lights on the trees at Village Square Park are officially turned on for the Christmas season.

EMC news - What is considered one of the greatest horror movies of the silent era of film making is being shown in Stittsville this Friday, Oct. 26. And what better time than just days before that scariest of days, Halloween! The film, as shown at the Gaia Java Coffee Company shop in Stittsville this coming Friday, will not be totally silent as pianist John Chmaj will be improvising musical accompaniment to go with the silent action on the screen. Mr. Chmaj, who has appeared at the Friday music nights at Gaia Java Coffee shop previously, has provided improvised keyboard accompaniment to movies previously back in his home town of Seattle, all to great acclaim. It should be no different here in Stittsville. And the classic 1919 silent horror movie that is being shown is one of the best. “The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari” is a German silent horror film that is considered one of the most influential of German expressionist films. Indeed, it is considered one of the greatest horror movies of the silent era of film making. The film features stylized sets, with abstract, jagged buildings painted on canvas backdrops and flats. In addition, the actors use an unrealistic technique that includes jerky and dance-like movements. You won’t want to miss this. In addition, the movie is known for having introduced the twist ending in cinema. So you’ll want to stay around to the end to see what happens. The entertainment will all start at 7 p.m. this Friday, Oct. 26 at the Gaia Java Coffee Company shop at the Stittsville Shopping Centre (Shoppers Drug Mart plaza) on Stittsville Main Street in Stittsville. There is no admission charge but people are urged to arrive early to get a good seat. You can also watch the movie and listen to Mr. Chmaj’s musical accompaniment while sipping a smooth cappuccino or jerky espresso, all made right there at Gaia Java.

Here comes Ghoul-bourn Spook Show John Curry john.curry@metroland.com

EMC news - It’s Ghoulbourn Spook Show time in Stittsville again. The ever-growing and everchanging Halloween haunt will be spookier and scarier than ever in its previous seven years. And, once again this year, it is all free with the only admission requirement being a food item donated for the Stittsville Food Bank. Last year an estimated 2500 visited the Ghoul-bourn Spook Show, up from 1500 the year before. And this year Ghoul-bourn Spook Show creator Joseph Carbonetto expects over 3,000 to visit over the four days that the Spook Show will be operating. It all starts this Saturday, Oct. 27 when the Ghoul-bourn Spook Show with its foggy graveyard and zombie filled dungeon (aka garage) will be open from 7 p.m. to 11 p.m. It will continue on both Monday, Oct. 29 and Tuesday, Oct. 30 from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. and then will be in operation on Halloween, Wednesday, Oct. 31 from 6 p.m. to 10 p.m. or later. This year the Ghoul-bourn

Spook Show is going to have more actors participating, as many as nine or ten, mostly laying the role of zombies in keeping with the theme of this year’s Spook Show – namely “Zombies, Zombies, Zombies.” The dungeon area, which is geared for older youngsters as opposed to the less-scary foggy front yard graveyard, has been redesigned this year, with more props involved. And they are not just any props – they are movie caliber, custom built, unique props that will be seen no place else. In addition, this year the zombie actors will be making more use of makeup rather than just masks. Their fangs, for instance, will be more lifelike. “We’re using professional, Hollywood style prosthetics,” says Mr. Carbonetto, explaining that this has been one of the major changes for the Ghoul-bourn Spook Show in recent years. Another change this year is that hot dogs, hamburgers and soft drinks will be available at the site when the Spook Show is operating. All proceeds from the sale of these will also be going to the Stittsville

Food Bank. But Mr. Carbonetto believes that this will be a popular addition as parents and families will now be able to visit the Spook Show and stay for as long as they want and not have to rush away for a bite to eat. It will be all right there. The Ghoul-bourn Spook Show is already recognized as one of the top 100 Halloween haunts in Canada. For the third year, it is one of the haunts featured on the Haunt Canada calendar which only features 12 haunts on the calendar, one for each month. The Ghoul-bourn Spook Show also hands out hundreds of dollars worth of candy each year. After all, it’s Halloween and youngsters expect it. This gets costly and Mr. Carbonetto is looking for a corporate sponsor to cover the candy cost but sponsor or not, the candy will be dispensed again this year. His whole goal is to provide a community event that everyone of all ages can enjoy while also collecting food donations for the Stittsville Food Bank. It takes about 200 to 250 hours to set up everything each year but it’s well worth the effort in his view. “It’s for everyone,” he says about the Ghoul-bourn Spook Show, calling it “an experience for the whole family.” But it’s all child friendly, he

The days and hours of operation have been extended this year, contrary to what the sign indicates. The Ghoul-bourn Spook Show will be open this Saturday, Oct. 27 from 7 p.m. to 11 p.m.; on Monday, Oct. 29 and Tuesday, Oct. 30 from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m.; and on Halloween, Wednesday, Oct. 31 from 6 p.m. to 10 p.m. or later. notes. The Ghoul-bourn Spook Show is dedicated to two people who have impacted Mr. Carbonetto and his view of Halloween. One is Wayne Carbonetto, his brother, who loved Halloween and was the one who got Joseph hooked on Halloween when he was young. Wayne died of cancer in 2003 and Joseph started his Halloween haunt in his memory, first at his thenOakfern Crescent home and more recently at his Cherry

through the Canadian International Development Agency (CIDA), will match any donations made to Rotary for this cause. So, the $200 now becomes $400. And, on top of this, the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation has made the same offer, so add another $200 to those Rotary funds, bringing the total to $600. That’s how a $100 initial donation, for instance, becomes $600. It is matched by the Rotary Club of Ottawa – Stittsville (up to $1,600). This amount is then doubled by CIDA and then also doubled by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. There is a one million dollar cap on the CIDA and Gates matching funds donations. This offer of matching funds from CIDA and the Gates Foundation is good until March 1, 2013. This End Polio Now campaign is meant to be a final push to get rid of polio in the world. This will be happening in the last three countries in the world where polio is still epidemic – Nigeria, Afghanistan and Pakistan. All donations of $20 or more will be issued an income tax receipt as well. Those wishing to donate to help eradicate polio in the world once and for all should send cheques to 28 Renshaw Avenue, Stittsville, Ont. K2S 1G9. The cheques should be made payable to the Rotary Club of Ottawa – Stittsville. For more information, please contact Rotary Club member Leo Maiorino at 613371-6975.

Sea of books fills Lions Hall at used book sale John Curry

john.curry@metroland.com

EMC news - It was a sea of books. And many showed up to wade in its bookish waters over the weekend, emerging with some prize catches. It was the fourth annual used book sale for Main Street Community Services which was held at the Lions Hall on Stittsville Main Street in Stittsville, beginning on Friday evening and continuing on both Saturday and Sunday,

with Sunday featuring a sale to end all sales – fill a reusable bag with books for only five dollars. For the used book sale, the hall was filled with books from wall to wall or, to keep with the sea analogy, from coast to coast. They were separated by category – adult fiction, mystery, short stories, poetry, self-help, medicine and health, politics, history, humour, biographies, children’s books and more. There was something for everyone’s reading taste.

The initial flurry on Friday evening saw the hall packed with book browsers. There continued to be a steady flow of people at the event on Saturday and then the bag sale on Sunday lured even more. Friday evening and Saturday at lunch both featured a BBQ with hot dogs, hamburgers, chips and drinks. This proved popular as did the ongoing bake sale and a raffle draw. And while lots of books walked out of the hall with their new owners during the sale, many remained. These

will be packed away and may re-appear at next fall’s used book sale. A number of the books on sale at this event come from those left over from the annual giant used book sale which is held at A. Lorne Cassidy Elementary School in Stittsville in May.

This used book sale at the Lions Hall is a fundraising event for Main Street Community Services in Stittsville which provides services for children and youth with special needs and their families. A not-for-profit registered charity, it depends heavily on

fundraising to carry on its programs and services. Main Street Community Services operates out of premises on the second storey of the Frederick Banting Alternate Program (former Stittsville Public School) on Stittsville Main Street in Stittsville.

EMC news - There was a seasonal, Halloween-ish feel at the tea at the Richmond Legion Hall last Sunday afternoon, Oct. 21. This was probably because of the orange tablecloths which graced many of the tables for the event, adding a fall flavour to the hall. But it could also have been because of the goodies and treats which were available, both to those enjoying tea or coffee and lots of conversation at their tables as well as to those patronizing the bake table, with many JOHN CURRY/METROLAND leaving with goodies and pies Enjoying goodies, refreshments and conversation at last Sunday afternoon’s annual tea and sale hosted by the Ladies’ earmarked for eating enjoyAuxiliary of the Richmond Branch 625 of the Royal Canadian Legion at the Legion Hall on Ottawa Street in Richmond ment at home. are, from left, Dr. Lucy Rabb, Margaret Atkinson and Don Atkinson.

What a week for Anderson! Shelley Black, Anderson’s mother, in her remarks at the presentation, praised the firefighters for inspiring not only the community but herself and her son and her family. “I thank you from the bottom of my heart,� she said, saying that the love, heart, compassion and energy that the firefighters have shown in her son’s support has meant so very much to her. But this was not all that Anderson got to enjoy last week. On Monday, Oct. 15, he was taken for a ride in a Ferrari. He returned from the ride with, as his mother reports, “a smile that spanned from one ear to the other.� On Thursday, Oct. 18, Anderson visited his school, Westwind Public School, for the first time since his aneurysm and stroke last June. The school held a fundraising dance-a-thon that day for Anderson and a banner hung over the school’s gymnasium doors portrayed the feelings of the students and staff towards Anderson – “I Believe In Anderson� is what it said. Anderson was welcomed with smiles, cheers, hugs, high fives and open heards at the event. Hot 98.9 was there, playing a fabulous mixed of songs. Spartacat, the Ottawa Senators mascot, surprised Anderson with an appearance at the event. Anderson also got to visit his classroom where his classmates presented him with a book that they made to welcome him back. Anderson’s mom answered questions from the students about what had happened to Anderson and why he now had to be in a wheelchair. The students can’t wait for Anderson to rejoin them in class and while there is still no date set for the return, he will be returning part-time sometime this school year with him mom there as well to help him adjust.

And the week, with its car wash, Ferrari ride, fire truck ride and visit to school, proved to be a week of both healing and happiness for Anderson, his mom says. “I find myself in awe and truly, at a loss for words,� Shelley Black has written. “Love can indeed build a bridge!,� she adds. “The one that has been constructed for my child is solid, strong and absolutely beautiful.� So far, the fundraising efforts to help Anderson in his recovery amounts to $27,706 as of last Monday. And there’s more to come. A BBQ, bake sale and auction is being held on Saturday, Nov. 3 from 11:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. at the Lions Hall on Stittsville Main Street, with all of the proceeds going to help Anderson in his recovery. The fundraising is meant to help Anderson and his mom have the financial resources to provide for Anderson’s medical needs and to allow his mother to stay home and care for him during his recovery. She left her job to be with Anderson through his medical ordeal since last June and now, thanks to the fundraising, she will be able to stay with him and care for him at least for the next year. Funds raised in the community to help Anderson will go toward neurological physiotherapy, equipment needs and various forms of treatment while also helping his mom to continue to be at his side throughout his recovery.

EMC news - What a week for seven year old Anderson Bihler of Stittsville! It all began on Saturday, Oct. 13 when firefighters from Ottawa Fire Services stations 41, 45, 46 (Iber Road) and 81 (Stittsville Main Street) held a fundraising car wash at the former Stittsville Flea Market site on Hazeldean Road in Stittsville. It was so well patronized that a total of $6,606 was raised, all going to help Anderson in his recovery from the brain aneurysm and massive stroke which he suffered last June and has left him with a debilitating degree of paralysis on his left side. That’s why he is confined to a wheelchair at present as he enters his recovery period which is expected could take up to two years. The proceeds from this car wash were presented to Anderson and his mom Shelley Black on Tuesday, Oct. 16 in a special gathering at the Station 81 on Stittsville Main Street. Anderson even got to ride to and from the fire hall in a fire truck. At the station, Anderson got a tour of the station and got to sit behind the wheel of the station’s ladder truck and even activating its horn a couple of times. At the presentation ceremony, Stittsville firefighter Lieut. Brian Bedard remarked on the success of the car wash where there were two rows of vehicles lined up for several hours to get a wash and make a donation. “The community really came through,� Ltd. Bedard said, noting that in all his years as a firefighter with many car washes done, he had never seen such overwhelming support for a car wash event. Stittsville sector chief Todd Horricks noted how everyone in the community helped out, adding that he had never heard of any organization making over $6,600 with a car wash.

OPINION

EDITORIAL

City should consider a pay-as-you-go future

C

ity councillors are in an unenviable position as they begin to tackle the next budget. The costs of Lansdowne’s rebuilding lie ahead while taxpayers remember the sinkhole on highway 174. What to do, what to do? It would be nice to build new things – an opera house, a new main library or affordable housing – but each project comes with two costs: the up-front bill for construction

and the long-term cost of maintenance. No one wants to end up at the bottom of a sinkhole. We need only look down the (provincially-maintained) highway to Montreal to see how bad things can get. Lumps of cement falling off bridges, rust eating away at metal spans and commuters who must keep an eye out for other cars, pedestrians and the occasional falling bridge. We’re not there yet and we

don’t want to arrive there any time soon. As many an expert has told city council, if you delay scheduled maintenance of your infrastructure, you end up paying more in the long run. One example is Ottawa’s public housing, which provides a double-whammy. The existing homes need upkeep and we need more houses for low-income families. A new Lansdowne Park will be welcome and the deal is done, but other capital

expenditures should be carefully reviewed before going ahead. Better to spend any money we have on maintaining what we already own than to head out and buy more stuff: bridges, highways and roads. During austere economic times, few taxpayers would oppose frugal city spending. Many would applaud it. Any true fiscal conservative in this city should be willing to forego the possibility of new-fangled build-

ings and roads and should also get behind the city’s policy of intensification over suburban sprawl. New neighbourhoods on the edge of town cost us all mightily when it comes time to run pipes, wires and buses to the new residents that move in. The city’s whole financial system deserves a rethink. Maybe now is the time for the city to toss away the credit cards and live within its means. Instead of borrow-

ing to build new stuff, put the brakes on spending until we can operate on a pay-asyou-go basis. It would mean years of limited new stuff but the payoff comes after the hard work, when new projects can go ahead without need for borrowing and debt. In the meantime, city councillors should focus on the most pressing business: maintaining what we already own. The sky is not falling, but the road might.

COLUMN

A history museum? Why not? CHARLES GORDON Funny Town

O

f course everyone is suspicious these days that when it was announced that the Museum of Civilization was going to become the Canadian Museum of History, people assumed the worst. Or at least some people. The Museum of Canadian History was going to become an instrument of Conservative partisanship. Hall 1: How Sir John A. Macdonald invented Canada. Hall 2: The War of 1812. Hall 3: How the Liberals destroyed Canada. Hall 4: The Royal Family. Hall 5: How Stephen Harper saved Canada. Then you exit through the gift shop, where on sale are fridge magnets with the Free Trade Agreement printed on them, maps of Canada where Alberta is unusually large and several of the smaller provinces are missing, Stephen Harper’s book about hockey and autographed copies of the Marketing Freedom for Grain Farmers Act. Such are the times we live in. Nothing a politician does is above suspicion. But when you step back and look at it objectively, a Museum of Canadian History is not that bad a thing. There is no such thing now and every serious capital needs one. The late lamented Portrait Gallery was a step in that direction, a chance for us to have a look at important Canadians past and present, but it perished for a variety of reasons, some of them political. It is often said that Canada has a rich and colourful history. And it is said equally often that most Canadians don’t know that Canada has a rich and colourful history. That, obviously,

has a lot to do with what is and isn’t taught in schools. But it doesn’t help that there is no single place Canadians can go and see their history portrayed in a vivid way. Properly done, the History Museum could accomplish a lot. Think of the Canadian War Museum and how compellingly the war years are portrayed there. There is much of our history that is not about war, but no reason that it can’t be portrayed compellingly, too. Think beyond war to the events and people who made this country, many of them uncelebrated, except perhaps in small museums in their birthplaces – the explorers, politicians, rebels, artists, scientists and entrepreneurs. If you are in Batoche, Sask., you can see a great Louis Riel exhibition. If you are in Grand PrÊ, N.S., you can learn about the expulsion of the Acadians. If you are in Neepawa, Man., you can visit Margaret Laurence’s house and learn about her life. We need to see all that here too, in a national museum. Not everyone can get to Neepawa or Batoche or Grand PrÊ. There would be a lot to put into this museum and locating it in Ottawa is a positive step. Ottawa is where the history museum belongs because the capital is the logical place for people to come and view their history. Anyone who has visited Washington knows how impressively American history is assembled and presented. No reason we can’t do that here. In a perfect world, a brand new museum would be constructed, a grand edifice somewhere along Confederation Boulevard (remember Confederation Boulevard?), but the times are less than perfect and governments are done with putting up grand edifices. So we lose the Museum of Civilization. That museum, as it turns out, is Ottawa’s most popular, but it has always lacked a clear identity. This change will give it one. Combined with the National Gallery, the War Museum and the Museum of Nature, the new museum will present visitors with a well-rounded picture of the kind of country Canada is and has been. That would be great to show visitors to Canada and even greater to show Canadians.

9 RUN RUN in Stittsville is 9 WOW WOW EMC news - 9 RUN RUN became 9 WOW WOW last Saturday. It was a WOW event because of Mother Nature who, despite forecasts of rainy conditions, produced an ideal glorious sunny fall day. Mother Nature is obviously a supporter of Do-It-For-Daron and the Royal Ottawa’s youth mental health initiatives, re-

cipients of the funds raised in this third annual 9 RUN RUN event organized by the city of Ottawa’s fire, police and paramedic emergency services. But it was a WOW event because of so much more. Seeing a giant – and we mean really big – Canada flag waving in the breeze high above the start/finish line for the half marathon and 10K race events couldn’t help but impress. Two Ottawa Fire Services ladder trucks were em-

ployed to serve as the flagpole holding this giant flag high in the air at the start/finish line which was on Abbott Street just west of Carberry Drive. And it was a WOW just from the numbers registered – over 1800 in total with 763 in the 10K, 637 in the half marathon and 402 in the 3K Family Fun Run. Participants ranged from over 80 to as young as one year old. They came not only from Ottawa and the area but from New York State, British

Columbia, Quebec and Manitoba. And among the participants was a huge contingent of over 70 from the Renfrew area who wore orange “Move It For Mark” t-shirts in memory of Mark Springer, an area youth who committed suicide exactly a year ago to the very day, Oct. 20, 2011. “Move It For Mark” has raised over $10,000 this year to combat youth suicide and they took part in this year’s 9 RUN RUN en masse to support DoIt-For-Daron and the Royal Ottawa’s youth mental health work. And there were other groups participating – Team Fire (71 firefighters registered to run), Team Paramedic (64 paramedics were registered to run), Team Police (66 police were registered), Team Algonquin (emergency services program students) and more. And it was WOW from an organizational standpoint thanks to race director Brenda Tirrell and her team of organizers and volunteers. Indeed, there were over 175 volunteers who helped with the event – manning stations along the race routes, helping with the start and finish of races, looking after a volunteer check-in station, answering queries and more – all while wearing their stand-out yellow t-shirts. And there was lots to eat and drink for the participants – McDonald’s coffee, chili from Scrumptious Creative Cater-

ing and BBQ’d hamburgers thanks to Rick Hobbs, assisted by a team of volunteers who served a steady stream of hungry participants from 10

a.m. through to 1 p.m., all in exchange for a donation to the cause. See EMERGENCY, page 10

And start-finish line announcer George Von Jagow was not only able to send the runners in the half marathon and 10K races away with the observation “It’s a great day for a 9 RUN RUN” but also, thanks to technology including the tags worn by each participant which identified them on a computer screen just before they reached the finish line, was able to welcome runners back to the finish line by name, congratulating them on their effort – all a nice touch, keeping a personal aspect to this ever-growing event. And one of these runners, Mark White of Nepean, was among the last to finish in the half marathon with a time of two hours, 44 minutes and 49 seconds. But for Mark, this 9 RUN RUN was about far more than just finishing or even competing. He took part as a way of thanking the Ottawa emergency services personnel for what they did two years ago when he and four of his cycling friends were struck and injured by a vehicle on March Road in Kanata. He met many of these emergency services personnel prior to the race and thanked them for their efforts on that day. WOW! Another of the half mara-

thon runners was Alan Rushforth of Nepean who completed the course in two hours, 51 minutes and 31 seconds – not bad for someone who is 80 years old. Alan, who perhaps now is better known as the creator of a hand-made street organ which has played in Stittsville, most recently outside the Gaia Java Coffee shop at the Stittsville Shopping Centre, ran in the Boston Marathon back in 2008 as the oldest Canadian in the event. WOW! And imagine the coincidence that bib number 911 in this 9 RUN RUN event happened to be worn by a hometown Stittsville runner, Kathryn Coyle, who completed the half marathon in a time of two hours, 28 minutes and 21 seconds. WOW! It’s these and other little individual stories that give 9 RUN RUN its unique flavour. WOW! There was the foursome – Alex Martin, Mark McLean, Tracy Stanley-Martin and Christine Lacroix - from the Running Room in Kanata who were there at the start line, cheering on their Running Room friends who were taking part in the half marathon. They held up signs as they urged on their running colleagues. And there at the start line, playing as the runners left, were members of

IN IN

the Ottawa Police pipe band. And at the start line of the 3K Family Run Run, which happened along the Trans Canada Trail from Sacred Heart High School to Village Square Park and back, one could not forget the Do-It-For-Daron focus of the event thanks to the presence of four girls dressed in purple full length body suits, each with a letter on their front, spelling out D.I.F.D. as they gathered together. The four – Quinn Murphy, Ludivine Blais, Jessica Perigo and Dior Carley – had acquired the purple body suits for Halloween last year, wearing them to raise awareness of Do-It-ForDaron. They led the warm-up exercises for the 3K Family Fun Run. WOW! And so much more! Ottawa Fire Services inspectors and chiefs, all decked out in their finest dress uniforms, were at the finish line to congratulate and hand out the medals to the half marathon and 10K run finishers. Rotary Club of Ottawa – Stittsville members were at Sacred Heart, handing out balloons to youngsters while a face painter in their company transformed the faces of many a youngster throughout the morning. A WOW moment for each of them! 9 RUN RUN was a WOW moment for Cameron Caughey of Stittsville and Ryan Leaf

of Ottawa. Cameron was the first finisher in the 10K run in a time of 37 minutes, 33 seconds. Ryan was the top finisher in the half marathon with a time of one hour, 19 minutes and 14 seconds.

And the biggest WOW of all is that while there is no final fundraising total yet due to outstanding bills yet to be received, race director Brenda Tirrell is confident that the final total will be more than

last year when 9 RUN RUN raised $25,911.11 in support of D.I.F.D. and the Royal Ottawa’s youth mental health awareness study and early intervention research project. WOW! WOW!

Repeat winner in Chief’s Chili Cook-Off John Curry john.curry@metroland.com

JOHN CURRY/METROLAND

Serving as judges for the third annual Chief’s Chili Cook-Off at the 9 RUN RUN emergency services run in Stittsville last Saturday, Oct. 20 are, from left, Jeff Robinson of Scrumptious Creative Catering; Mitch Anderson of Brown’s Your Independent Grocer; and city of Ottawa Stittsville ward councillor Shad Qadri.

EMC news - When you’ve got it, you’ve got it! And Ottawa Fire Services chief Gerry Pingitore has it, whatever that is, when it come to cooking chili. For the second straight year, he won the Chief’s Chili Cook-Off at the 9 RUN RUN event in Stittsville, beating the

entries of the Ottawa Police Service and the Ottawa Paramedic Service. Before this year’s judging, in fact, chief Pingitore received his plaque for winning last year’s event. But at the presentation, he would not reveal what, if any, special ingredients he used for his winning entry last year. It was then time for the four judges – Jeff Robinson of Scrumptious Creative Catering, Mitch Anderson of Brown’s Your Independent Grocer, city of Ottawa Stittsville ward councillor Shad Qadri and Stittsville News EMC editor John Curry – to sample each of this year’s three entries, judging them on such features as aroma, appearance, taste and consistency. And when the test tasting was done and the judges’ results compiled, the winner turned out to be chief Pingi-

tore with 49 points, six more than the runner-up Paramedic Services chili. The Ottawa Police Services entry collected 30 points in total from the judges. As he accepted the Chief’s Chili Cook-Off trophy for the second straight year, chief Pingitore was a little more forthcoming but still taciturn about his winning recipe. He admitted that chili is never exactly the same from time to time since there are differences in the meat used. But he did say that letting the chili sit for a day does enhance its flavour and this is what he does. Perhaps this is a tip that the Ottawa Police Service and the Ottawa Parmaedic Service will use for next year’s Chief’s Chili Cook-Off as they try to de-throne the reigning chili champion, chief Gerry Pingitore.

EMC news - Ottawa Public Health free community influenza immunization clinics are coming up in both Stittsville and Richmond in November. The clinic in Stittsville will be held on Monday, Nov. 5 from 3:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. at Sacred Heart Catholic High School on Abbott Street at Iber Road in Stittsville. The clinic in Richmond will take place on Wednesday, Nov. 14 from 3:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. at South Carleton High School on McBean Street in Richmond. Receiving a flu shot at one of these clinics or at any of the other clinics being held throughout the city, starting on Saturday, Oct. 27 and running through to Saturday, Dec.

15 is one of the ways in which city of Ottawa residents can get the flu vaccine. Other ways are through a personal physician or health care provider or at a workplace immunization clinic. The flu vaccine is the most effective way of protecting yourself against the flu virus. Other precautions which help protect against the flu are washing hands often with soap and water or hand sanitizer; covering coughs and sneezes with a tissue or your arm, not your hand; and staying at home when sick. This year’s flu vaccine will cover three strains of influenza: the 2009 H1N1 strain, an influenza A known as H3N2 and an influenza B component.

Vendors wanted EMC news - The nursery rhyme “Rub-ADub-Dub” makes reference to a candlestick maker, stuck in a tub with two others, sailing out to sea. But candlestick makers, along with other artisans of all kinds such as painters, potters, knitters, photographers, jewellery makers and more, are very much wanted to be right here in Stittsville, on hand in the atrium at Sacred Heart High School rather than floating around in a tub somewhere. That’s because the second annual “Ladies’ Night Out: A Stittsville Women’s Show” is being staged at the atrium on Thursday, Nov. 15 from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. and as many artisans and entrepreneurs as possible are wanted to participate in the event.

The Stittsville Cooperative Nursery School, which is hosting the event, is looking for vendors for the event, offering local artisans and entrepreneurs an opportunity to showcase their products to local residents. Coming just before Christmas, this is a great opportunity for community residents to purchase local and handmade gifts just in time for Christmas. The Stittsville Cooperative Nursery School will be accepting vendor registrations up until Friday, Nov. 9. To register or for more information, please contact aimeecmacdonald@gmail. com Admission to this event will be free for shoppers. All proceeds from the vendor registration fee will go directly to support the Stittsville Cooperative Nursery School while the vendors will get to keep 100 percent from the sale of their products that evening.

Christmas concert Dec. 16 Special to the News

EMC news - Last December’s Christmas concert by the Goulbourn Male Chorus was one of the musical highlights of the Yuletide season in Stittsville. This promises to be the same this coming December when the Goulbourn male Chorus presents “Welcome Christmas,” a concert with an old fashioned, traditional feel to it. The only change this year is that the concert will be presented at St. Paul’s Anglican Church on Young Road in Kanata rather than at Holy Spirit Catholic Church on Shea Road in Stittsville. But despite the shift of venue, the Goulbourn Male Chorus is still offering a memorable musical program.

Last December, over 400 attended the Christmas concert and a crowd of similar size is expected for this year’s event. Guest performers at this year’s concert will include the new West Ottawa Ladies Chorus and the Trinity Hilltop Handbell Ringers, a handbell ensemble that also performed at last year’s Christmas concert. The concert will be held on Sunday, Dec. 16 from 3 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. at St. Paul’s Anglican Church located on Young Road in Kanata, just north of Hazeldean Road and just east of Terry Fox Drive. Tickets for this Goulbourn Male Chorus concert are expected to be available soon at various outlets in the commu-

nity including the Gaia Java Coffee Company shop at the Stittsville Shopping Centre (Shoppers Drug Mart plaza) on Stittsville Main Street. The Goulbourn Male Chorus is directed by Robert Dueck with Barbara Creech as the accompanist. Chorus members include Al Neill, Art van Draanen, Bill Horsman, Bob Goudie, Bob Major, Chris Brydges, Chris Morris, David Lockyer, Don Snyer, Doug Hall, Gary King, Glenn Fobert, James McIntosh, Jean Wong, John Hunter, John McGinn, Laurisse Huijer, Leo Mevel, Michael Hogan, Patrick Tang, Rene Normandin, Rory MacDiarmid and Tom Kobolak.

vehicles in the garage which were destroyed by the fire. The sleeping owners woke to the sound of popping sounds coming from the garage. When they were investigated, the fire in the garage was discovered. The couple evacuated the home, calling 9-1-1. One of the owners’ recently married children was also living part-time at the home with his wife. Most of their personal belongs that were being stored at the home while awaiting construction of their new home were destroyed in the fire. There were no firefighter injuries as a result of battling the fire. The suspected area of origin of the fire is the garage and investigators from the Office of the Fire Marshal visited the scene to investigate the cause. The large wood barn with its one-storey addition, which sits east of the fire site, was untouched by the fire, as were two more modern farm buildings farther east in the barnyard. Robert Graves of Century Lane Farms is known for his rearing of sheep.

EMC news - If you are a story teller who likes to write, you may find just the inspiration that you need to write regularly by joining the new creative writing group at the Stittsville branch of the Ottawa Public Library. Those who like to write stories about lives, experiences, views and ideas, as well as fiction and fantasy, are encouraged to join. Each member of this creative writing group is urged to write up to a maximum of two pages each week on a topic and in a style of their choice or perhaps in response to an assignment from a previous meeting. The group meets each Thursday from 6 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. at the Stittsville library. At this meeting, each writer reads his or her piece to the group, noting the techniques and challenges in writing it. Other members are welcome to offer positive comments and reflections after each piece is read out. Even if someone is unable to write something in time for the meeting, he or she is still encourage to attend the meeting and participate. The whole idea behind this creative writing group is to have fun writing and to encourage members to write regularly each week. The group is the brainchild of John Egan of Stittsville who began writing himself 11 years ago while he was in West Africa on loan to the Sierra Leone army, helping it re-group, re-train and re-deploy to take back the country from brutal rebels. While Mr. Egan began his writing as therapy, his stories eventually led to the Legion Magazine asking him to write an account of this West African experience which he did. He did not write after that until he joined a writing group which helped him revive the knack of writing and to give him the inspiration to make time for writing in his life. After moving to Stittsville and retiring from the military, he decided to try to form a writing group her, similar to the one that he had attended previously. The idea of the group is to inspire and support those in Stittsville who want to tell their stories through writing. There are no fees to belong to this creative writing group since this is an Ottawa Public Library program but membership numbers are limited so that at each meeting, there is enough time to read and discuss what each member has written that week. For more information on this creative writing group including program openings and registration, please call the Stittsville library branch at 613-836-3381.

Road paving in Ashton in 2013 john.curry@metroland.com

EMC news - Ashton is going to see a lot of paving equipment in 2013. That’s when the plan is for the repaving of Flewellyn Road from Munster Road right through to the Ashton Station Road in Ashton. In addition, Ormrod Road and the portion of Ashton Station Road in the village are also to be repaved. Besides repaving, the work will include improving the base of the roads where needed. This road resurfacing work is part of the city’s “Ottawa on the Move” program that is seeing 65 road improvement projects undertaken in the municipality’s rural areas in a four year span. This year a portion of the Dwyer Hill Road

was repaved and in 2014 the Mansfield Road from Conley Road to Munster Road will be repaved. City of Ottawa Rideau-Goulbourn ward councillor Scott Moffatt, who outlined the road repaving projects at a community town hall meeting in Ashton on Thursday, Oct. 18 which he hosted, explained that he pushed for more money being spent on roads in the rural areas of the city because the condition of rural roads was a big issue in the 2010 municipal election. “It puts the money where people want it,” he said about these road repaving projects. Besides repaving, the rural road improvement projects include re-gravelling of a number of roads. With regard to Ashton Station Road south of Ashton, councillor Moffatt said the city is

proper drainage would be a waste of money. He said that there are two municipal drain proposals now in the works that hopefully, if undertaken, will improve the condition of the Ashton Station Road. “It is on our radar to try to improve it,” he said about the road, noting that while there are no “overnight solutions,” things are moving forward on the matter. He said that even reducing the speed limit on the road slows down some of the traffic and helps protect the road from more deterioration.

Councillor Moffatt said that it is a difficult road to deal with because it passes through some wet land. He said that he would love to see the road hard surfaced at some point in the future since it is serving more and more as a connection between the reconstructed four lane highway seven and the Franktown Road. But he noted that to hard surface the road now without first ensuring that the road has

Halloween at GRC Breast Dress Project team in Run Guess Special to the News

Special to the News

EMC news - It’s Halloween time at the Goulbourn Recreation Complex (GRC) this Friday, Oct. 26. Last year over 250 children attended this special Halloween event hosted at the GRC and a similar turnout is expected this year. Children are urged to attend in costume. Admission is simply a non-perishable food item for the Food Bank. All of this Halloween activity at the GRC begins at 5 p.m., with Halloween activities for youngsters continuing through to 7 p.m. There will be a haunted house, mini pumpkin and cookie decorating, treats and more. From 7 p.m. to 8:20 p.m., there will be public skating in costume in the arena. Treats will be handed out as well. At the same time, there will be a “haunted swim” in the pool. Things will wrap up with a Halloween party from 8 p.m. to 9 p.m.

EMC news - Seven from Stittsville were part of the multi-member Breast Dress Project team which raised over $21,000 in the recent CIBC Run For The Cure. This team has now raised over $72,000 for the fight against breast cancer since it came together in 2009. Those from Stittsville who are part of the 27 member team are Katherine Bissonnette, Elisha Rutsey, Jen Howard, Tara Emmerson, Su Ng, Joelle Mackenzie and Katelyn Bond. The other team members are from Carp, Barrhaven, Kanata, Dunrobin and Ottawa. This year the team, led by Tiziana BaliceMalcolm, had additional inspiration to raise more than in any of the prior years as the team’s former leader, Jamie Johnston, lost her battle

with breast cancer last February. She was a 35 year old wife and mother of two small children as well as a business owner. She was an inspiration to the team members with her example of courage, strength and hope. This year, instead of walking with Jamie as the team members have done in the past, everyone walked for Jamie with a vision to finding a cure for breast cancer. The CIBC Run For The Cure provides support for the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation in its work in funding breast cancer research and in undertaking education and health promotion initiatives across the country. To learn more about the work of the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation, visit www. cbcf.org

Lawn Bowling Club wraps up 2012 season Special to the News

JOHN BRUMMELL/METROLAND

Members of the executive of the Goulbourn Lawn Bowling Club for the upcoming 2013 season are, front row, seated, from left, Mary Bogle, secretary; Mary Tremblay, treasurer; Jean Tremblay, greenskeeper; and Patricia Garbin, advisor; and, back row, standing, from left, Stewart Cook, director; George Burns-Nicol, president; Theresa Dourin, hospitality; Shirley Burns-Nicol; Rick Nolan, vice-president; and Jeannie Fanning, advisor.

EMC news - The lawn bowls are now put away, the end of another season for the Goulbourn Lawn Bowling Club. The Club wrapped up its 2012 activities with its annual general meeting and banquet at the 6400 Celebration Centre on West Ridge Drive at Hazeldean Road on Tuesday evening, Oct. 16. This year a new tent shelter was erected at the Club’s lawn bowling green beside the Goulbourn Town Hall (former Goulbourn municipal building) at Stanley’s Corners. This provided a relaxing spot where lawn bowlers could stay out of the sun or inclement weather while enjoying themselves right beside the lawn bowling green. It was erected just before the opening of the season, with the Goulbourn Lawn Bowling Club and the city of Ottawa cooperating on its purchase, with the city supplying matching funds of about $7,000. This year the city of Ottawa fully funded a new mower for

the lawn bowling green to the tune of $7,900. The Goulbourn Lawn Bowling Club, which is currently enjoying increased membership, is always open to new members. Fees are very reasonable and the Club supplies the lawn bowls for beginners. All a new bowler needs is a pair of flat soled shoes, shorts and a light top. Lots of instruction and advice is available on how to play the game. This past season, the Club offered lawn bowling on Tuesday and Thursday evenings starting at 6:30 p.m. for those who could not bowl during the day. Regular lawn bowling action for the Goulbourn Lawn Bowling Club took place this past season every Monday, Wednesday and Friday morning, followed by treats and refreshments with conversation afterwards. Lawn bowling is a game that goes back possibly to the 12th century. It is a sport that suits people from teens through to seniors because of its leisurely pace, its reliance on skill and its non-contact nature. In addition, it is played outdoors, with lots of opportunity for conversation and enjoying the fresh air. The objective in lawn bowling is to roll biased (that means that they are weighted i.e. not perfectly round so that they will curve and bend as they move along the green) bowls so that they stop as close as possible to a smaller ball called a”jack” which has been placed at the other end of the green. Lawn bowling is popular in the United Kingdom, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, Hong, Kong, parts of the United States, Japan and Canada. Indeed, today the sport is played in over 40 countries and is a sport at the Commonwealth Games. Lawn bowling is played on a rectangular, precisely leveled area with manicured grass, divided into parallel playing strips called rinks. In singles and pairs play, a player delivers four bowls in each end. In triples, three bowls are delivered by each player in an end while in fours, each bowler delivers two bowls in an end. For more information about the Goulbourn Lawn bowling Club, please contact Club president George Burns-Nichol at 613-831-0939 or email him at gjbn@rogers.com

Bin filled with e-waste EMC news - A giant green bin filled to capacity with e-waste marked success for the ewaste fundraiser held by Cheer Sport Sharks Ottawa on Saturday, Oct. 13. Cheer Sport Sharks Ottawa would like to thank everyone who supported this event, dropping by to 119 Iber Road in Stittsville to drop off for free unwanted computers, TVs and other electronics ready for recycling. This free electronic waste drop off day was held by Cheer Sport Sharks Ottawa in partnership with Ontario Electronic Stewardship (OES). Keeping this electronic waste out of landfill helps create a greener, healthier environment. And being environmentally conscious also allows Cheer Sport Sharks Ottawa to raise some funds that will be used to support

the senior cheerleading teams when they travel to Myrtle Beach in March 2013 for a competition. Cheer Sport Sharks Ottawa will be hosting another free electronic waste drop off day in the spring. Cheer Sport Sharks Ottawa has recently arrived in the Stittsville community, holding its official opening in September. Cheer Sport Sharks Ottawa wants to be involved not only in providing a fun and competitive cheerleading program but also in being involved in the community, holding events such as this free public electronic waste drop off day. Cheer Sport Sharks began in 2003 in Cambridge, Ont., growing in both numbers and locations over the years and now arriving in Stittsville to serve the Ottawa area.

Pat Kennedy scores hat trick with display John Curry john.curry@metroland.com

all on display last Saturday because of the size of the exhibit case. She also included in the display some miniature hat boxes which she has added to her collection. In addition, she included one hat worn by the Queen Mother and another hat worn by Camilla, the Duchess of Cornwall. Ms. Kennedy says that she makes these miniature replicas of the Queen’s many hats because “it’s a fun thing.” In addition, she is a hat lover herself, one of which she was wearing as she attended “The Queen’s Tea” event last Saturday. She currently has 61 hats, all custom-made. She recently has sent a picture of her collection of miniature replicas of the Queen’s hats to the Queen but so far she has not heard back.

Pat Kennedy of Almonte stands with part of the display of Royal memorabilia and souvenirs which was on exhibit at “The Queen’s Tea” event hosted by the Goulbourn Museum and the Goulbourn Township Historical Society at the Stittsville branch of the Ottawa Public Library last Saturday, Oct. 20. Included in the display in the small cabinet just to the right of the Union Jacks on the wall are a number of the miniature replicas of Queen’s Elizabeth’s hats which Ms. Kennedy has made.

EMC news - Queen Elizabeth is renowned for her hats. And so it only makes sense that any celebration of the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee such as “The Queen’s Tea” event hosted by the Goulbourn Township Historical Society and the Goulbourn Museum at the Stittsville branch of the Ottawa Public Library last Saturday should include something about the Queen’s hats. And what a display it was, not in size as it was all contained in a small glass-front exhibit case, but in scope with numerous scale-model replicas of the Queen’s hats. These one-twelfth scale replicas, all hand made by Pat Kennedy of Almonte, an self-declared hat lover herself, have been made according to

designs provided by Buckingham Palace itself. Ms. Kennedy wrote to the Queen, seeking information about the hats that she has worn over the years, all of which are specially designed for her. Buckingham Palace responded by sending the designs to Ms. Kennedy with the proviso that any hats made from the designs could not be sold. Ms. Kennedy then set about to make her miniature replicas of the hats, right down to the details such as roses which she makes and glues on the hats. It takes her about four hours to make one of these miniature hats. She currently has made 35 hats, all unique in accordance with the Queen’s design, although she did not have them

Yes, last Saturday afternoon’s “The Queen’s Tea� event in Stittsville to celebrate Queen Elizabeth’s Diamond Jubilee this year, co-hosted by the Goulbourn Township Historical Society and the Goulbourn Museum, offered a bevy of displays, exhibits and collections dealing with Queen Elizabeth and the monarchy. It was a Royal watchers’ dream come true. Four youngsters turned up in outfits fit for a Princess and, indeed, that was the role that they wanted to play. All four were judged winners of the Princess dress-up contest. They were Maya Vanbeek and her sister Hannah Vanbeek, Emily Bryan and Vihangi Wijeratne. And the Queen look-alike nod went to Pierrette Mousseau of Stittsville who wore a Royal-worthy hat and dress and even gave her rendition of the “Royal wave.� Stittsville resident Bernie Muzeen was at the event with two Queen’s Medals on display – the Queen’s Silver Jubilee Medal from 1977 and the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee Medal which he received in a recent ceremony on Parliament Hill, one of only 60,000 Canadians who are receiving TIRED OF THE SAME OLD STYLE?

The Museum also had a display of postage stamps featuring Royals such as an 1898 stamp with Queen Victoria and a 1968 stamp featuring Queen Elizabeth II.

24th Annual Women’s Fair: Great deals and a worthy cause As we head into the season of Christmas fairs and specialty shopping, one of Carleton Place’s largest events of the year, the 24th annual Women’s Fair will offer a wide variety of bargains and unique products and services, and an opportunity to support Lanark County Interval House. On Saturday, November 3rd, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. the upper hall of the Carleton Place arena will play host to over 50 women-led businesses from the area. Many vendors are offering special promotions, and the fair provides the opportunity to start your holiday shopping. Admission is free. As you seek out deals, you can also feast on delicious, reasonably-priced, homemade fare from the lunch café, enter a Vendor Bingo contest to win a $100 shopping spree at Vamos Outdoors in Almonte, bid on over 50 unique items in the silent auction, take pictures in the Yelp photobooth, and have a chance to win our door prize – a complete personal makeover (over $500 value) compliments of Angels Roost Studio & Spa in Beckwith. Be sure to come early, as the first 100 visitors will also receive a Yelp canvas swag bag with promotions and gift items from many local businesses and services. If you can’t make it to the fair until the afternoon, plan to come for lunch, and stay for our fashion show at 2 p.m. The fashion show will feature funky women’s outdoor clothing and footwear from Vamos Outdoors, 14 Mill Street, Almonte. All proceeds from the annual event go to support the extensive programs and services offered by Interval House, the local shelter for abused women and children in Lanark County. Each year demand increases for the shelter’s services, and more and more fundraising is needed. Lanark County Interval House provides support for children, youth and women who experience physical, sexual, emotional, or financial abuse and can refer men to the appropriate resources.

Rotary members hear about Canadian Cancer Society John Curry john.curry@metroland.com

EMC news - It’s an organization that is well known but not known well, at least in the view of Sharyn McKinlayKey. And she should know as she is the fundraising supervisor for the Ottawa Unit of the Canadian Cancer Society. She was at the Tuesday, Oct. 16 meeting of the Rotary Club of Ottawa – Stittsville to tell a little about the Canadian Cancer Society and its work. It is an organization that funds cancer research but, as she

pointed out, it does more than that. It also provides support services to those with cancer. Indeed, battling cancer is something that Ms. McKinlay-Key knows about as she herself went through the experience six years ago when she was diagnosed with breast cancer. “It is an emotional roller coaster,” she said about the experience, explaining that her feelings ranged from disbelief to anger to fear to pity. “It’s a whole lot of waiting,” she explained about what she described as the can-

cer journey as there is waiting for diagnosis, for tests and for treatment. There is stress involved because a person does not know what lies ahead on the journey, she said. In her own case, she received great care and everything went smoothly, includ-

ing her 25 days of radiation treatment. And while she was able to drive herself to her treatments and pay for the parking, she acknowledged that there are others who cannot drive themselves to their treatments or cannot afford the parking

charges or do not have friends available who can help. That’s where the Canadian Cancer Society’s transportation program comes into play. The Ottawa Unit has a group of volunteer drivers who provide transportation for cancer patients receiving

treatment. This is a free service with no fees involved. The volunteer drives the patient to the treatment, waits for him or her and then drives the person back home. See CANCER, page 47

Football season over at Sacred Heart John Curry

john.curry@metroland.com

EMC sports - The football season is over at Sacred Heart Catholic High School. It has ended after three games as a decision was made not to continue for the safety of the players. Sacred Heart head coach Curtis MacNeil said that a rash of injuries, many to the team’s more experienced players, which would have forced the team’s younger and inexperienced players to go up against more senior opposing players, brought about the decision. “It was too much a safety risk,� coach MacNeil said about playing younger, less experi-

enced players up against older opposing players. “It was a tough decision to make,â€? coach MacNeil said, acknowledging that some players were disappointed, but added that since the safety of players was involved, it really was not a difďŹ cult decision to make. Sacred Heart will still be eligible to be involved in high school football next fall because this withdrawal from the league happened while awaiting the schedule for the rest of this season. Had there already been a schedule adopted and in place, Sacred Heart would have had to forfeit future games and would have been banned from play next season. But this season only a three game schedule

for each team had been released initially and teams had the option of withdrawing from the second part of the season, provided the team withdrew before the second part of the schedule was made up and released. This is what Sacred Heart did. Sacred Heart had ďŹ elded junior football teams for the past two years and had moved up to senior football this season. However, the team had only a few grade 12 students playing, with most of the roster comprised of grade 9 and 10 students and even some grade 9 students. This made the team young and inexperienced. While the team had lost all three of its games this season, the team’s record was not at issue in this decision. It was the fact that the team was running into a lot of injuries. Many of the injuries involved the team’s more experienced

and older players, meaning that the team’s younger and more inexperienced players were going to have to carry even more of the load in upcoming games. There was concern by coach MacNeil that this would lead to even more injuries as these younger players would be playing against older, more experienced players on other teams. This led to the request to be excluded from further play this season for the sake of the safety of the players. Coach MacNeil hopes to be back with a Sacred Heart team next fall. This year’s players, many of whom had no football experience at the beginning of the season, have now had practices and three games this season to gain some experience. Being older and with this year’s experience under their belts, the team should be ready to compete safely next season.

Public visioning workshop about Stittsville Main Street John Curry john.curry@metroland.com

EMC news - You can have a say in the future of Stittsville Main Street. All you have to do is attend and participate in a public visioning workshop about Stittsville Main Street that is happening on Thursday, Nov. 1 at the Johnny Leroux Stittsville Community Arena hall in Stittsville. That’s when input can be provided about how a Community Design Plan dealing with Stittsville Main Street should be developed to shape the Stittsville Main Street of the future. This public visioning workshop will get underway at 6:30 p.m. with a sign-in and an initial opportunity for members of the public to provide some initial comments on the hopes and concerns related to Stittsville Main Street and its ongoing development.

At 7 p.m., city of Ottawa staff will be giving a presentation about the Community Design Process in general and explain about the vision statement that will arise out of the input received at this workshop. Those at the workshop will divide into discussion groups on various topics such as transportation, land use, architectural heritage, environment and open space and infrastructure. These discussion groups will report back to the overall group and the record of these workshop proceedings will be used to draft a vision statement about Stittsville Main Street. This Stittsville Main Street Community Design Plan process which is now underway is the result of city of Ottawa Stittsville ward councillor Shad Qadri working with city of Ottawa planning staff to ensure that development along

Stittsville Main Street in the future retains the community feel of Stittsville. The Community Design Plan that will arise from this process will provide a 20 year vision and guidance for development along Stittsville Main Street. This initial visioning workshop is a key component of the public input in the process. It was back in Nov. 2010 that councillor Qadri brought a motion to Ottawa city council asking for a work plan to develop a Community Design Plan for Stittsville Main Street. This request was as a result of a city approval for a five storey mixed residential/commercial building and related townhomes at a site on Stittsville Main Street. Councillor Qadri and some residents had argued that the scale of this development was inappropriate for the community. Stittsville Main Street is

designated as a Traditional Mainstreet in the city’s Official Plan, making it a site for intensification of development, creating a compact, mixed use and walkable environment supporting transit, cycling and walking. However, Stittsville Main Street is also covered by Policy 13 which relates to the Master Plan and Urban Design Guidelines of the former Township of Goulbourn. The relationship of this Policy 13, which requires any new construction on Stittsville Main Street to be evaluated in terms of the existing character of buildings along Stittsville Main Street, to the direction of the Traditional Mainstreet designation for Stittsville Main Street in the official Plan has created some ambiguity with respect to how the former Goulbourn planning documents are to be interpreted today. The Community Design

Plan for Stittsville Main Street will try to solve this apparent ambiguity and conflict. Traffic on Stittsville Main Street is also a consideration as the street is meant to continue to function as a primary north/south route in the community. This means that Stittsville Main Street development must be of a type that will encourage a compact mixed use and walkable environment rather than the auto-oriented, low-rise pattern of development which has prevailed to this point. Stittsville Main Street must evolve as an accessible service hub for the surrounding community rather than its current limited function as a conduit for traffic movement. This is the kind of development pattern that the city’s Official Plan policies tries to encourage. This Community Design Plan for Stittsville Main

Street will be undertaken by the city’s planning and growth management staff in collaboration with a public advisory committee comprised of community organizations, landowners, businesses and other interested parties. Following this Nov. 1 public workshop and the ensuing vision creation, a public open house presenting this vision and the existing conditions that prevail along Stittsville Main Street will be held in the first quarter of 2013. A draft Community Design Plan document will be produced in the second quarter of 2013. In the third quarter of 2013, a community open house will be held to present the final Community Design Plan and to receive comments from the public. It is envisioned that the Community Design Plan will go to Ottawa city council for approval in the first quarter of 2014.

Well water sample drop-offs in Richmond, Ashton, Munster EMC news - Well water sample drop-offs are coming up in Richmond, Ashton and Munster. This is where homeowners with wells can drop off a sample of well water and it will be sent for free testing, with the results provided to the homeowner in a matter of days. The drop-off in Richmond will be this Monday, Oct. 29 from 3 p.m. to 8 p.m. at the Rich-

mond Memorial Community Centre (arena) at the corner of Perth Street and Huntley Road in Richmond. The drop-off in Ashton will be on the same day, this Monday, Oct. 29, lasting from 5:30 a.m. right through to 6 p.m. at the Ashton General Store in Ashton. In Munster, the drop-off location will be Mac’s at the corner of Munster Road and Bleeks Road in the heart of the community.

Hours for this Munster drop-off this Monday, Oct. 29 will be 6:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. The best way to ensure that a well water supply is safe to drink is by having the water tested regularly. Bacterial contamination can cause sickness and in some cases even death, so having the well water rested regularly is key to safe drinking water from a well. The well water samples must be collected in

special bottles particularly prepared for such a well water collection. These well water sample bottles are available for pickup at the city of Ottawa Client Service Centre on Terry Fox Drive in Kanata; at Home Hardware on Perth Street in Richmond, at King’s valu-mart at the Richmond Plaza in Richmond, at the Goulbourn Town Hall on Huntley Road at Stanley’s Corners and at Mac’s in Munster.

Artists needed for winter street banners Special to the News

EMC news - Calling all young Richmond artists! It’s time again for the annual Richmond Winter Banner Contest which is running from Thursday, Nov. 1 through to Wednesday, Nov. 14. Young residents of Richmond and area are being challenged to create 25 original designs depicting various winter sports or winter scenes. These designs will be painted onto large yellow banner which

will then be hung on the lamp posts along Perth and McBean Streets for the winter months. Entries forms can be picked up and then dropped off at King’s valu-mart at the Richmond Plaza. Originality and use of colour are both important criteria for these banner designs along with how easily the design can be viewed and recognized from a distance. Entries will be chosen from four age

groups, namely ages 3-5; ages 6-8; ages 9 and 10; and ages 11-13. The winning banners will be unveiled at the annual “Lighting of the Park’ ceremony at Memorial Park in Richmond on Saturday, Dec. 1 at 6 p.m. All submissions in the contest, which is organized by the Richmond Village Association with corporate support from Golden Triangle Signs and other sponsors, will be on display at King’s valumart after Saturday, Dec. 15.

‘Scary-oke,’ poppy campaign at Richmond Legion Wendy Ryan Special to the News

Friday night darts are going well this fall with some very fast learners among the newcomers. There seems to be lots of high scores over 140 so far this year. It is not too late to register as a spare. Just come to the Legion Hall around 7:45 p.m. any Friday and sign up. There will be “Scary-oke� on Saturday, Oct. 27. That’s a karaoke night with a Halloween theme. The doors will open at 8 p.m. with a $5 cover charge. Last month’s karaoke had several new singers who showed a lot of talent. So come on out and enjoy the music. The Richmond Legion’s annual poppy campaign kicks off on Saturday, Oct. 27 with the door-to-door canvass in both Richmond and Munster. There is always a need for lots of help to cover all the streets. The Legion Hall will be open by 8:30 a.m., so come on out and have coffee and donuts, pick up a route map and a supply of poppies and be on your way. Each route takes one and a half to two hours, depending on how fast you walk. A hot lunch will be waiting for you at the Legion Hall when you are finished. This is a great way for students to earn community service hours. Everyone is most welcome to lend a hand on this door-to-door canvass. Remembrance ceremonies will be held in Munster on Sunday, Nov. 4 at 2 p.m. and in Richmond on Sunday, Nov. 11 at 11 a.m. In Richmond, the parade will form up at the Richmond plaza at 10:40 a.m. and then proceed along Perth Street to Memorial Park at the corner of Perth Street and McBean Street. The ceremony will last about 45 minutes, concluding with the

parade returning to the plaza along Perth Street. There will be an open house at the Richmond Legion on Ottawa Street following the ceremony. There will also be a suppertime open house followed by musical entertainment. Everyone is welcome to both open houses. The Richmond Legion’s Remembrance Dinner will be held on Saturday, Nov. 3 with cocktails at 6 p.m. followed by dinner. Tickets are $20 each. Please contact Shirley Morris this Friday, Oct. 26 to reserve your seat. Check out the Richmond Legion’s website at www.richmondlegion.ca for more information about Legion events. Coffee is served at the Richmond Legion Hall each weekday at 10 a.m. Exercise classes are held at the Legion Hall on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays from 9 a.m. to 10 a.m. The card game “500� is played every Wednesday at 1 p.m. while euchre is played each Friday at 1:30 p.m. Everyone is welcome to take part in any or all of these activities.

created, cut off from the Richmond Circuit. This new Ashton Circuit included the Ashton Methodist Church, the Munster Methodist Church and the Prospect Methodist Church. In 1898, a new brick church, the current Ashton United Church, was built, replacing an original wooden church that stood near what is now the Ashton General Store. The cornerstone for this new church was laid in May 1898. The church, which cost $2,700, was debt free when it was completed. It featured several stained glass windows as well as a sliding door to set apart the Sunday School room

from the worship space. In 1925, with church union, the Ashton Methodist Church and the Melville Presbyterian Church merged. It was decided that both of the existing church buildings in Ashton would be used for services on a year-about basis. This lasted until about 1943 when the congregation voted to hold the Ashton United Church services in the former Methodist Church while using the former Presbyterian Church as a hall. The former Melville Presbyterian Church was sold to a private individual in 1970.

In 1984, the Ashton United Church added a $40,000 two-storey addition which included a new kitchen, pump room and two washrooms in the basement and a handicapped washroom and fellowship room on the main floor. This year, 1984, was the centennial of the creation of the Ashton Pastoral Charge in 1884. The former Melville Presbyterian Church, a stone building featuring a 95 foot high spire, was completed in 1879. Fifty six feet long and 40 feet wide, it could seat up to 300 people. It replaced a former smaller stone church dating back to the 1840’s.

EMC news - Ashton United Church’s history goes back about 190 years to the days when Rev. Ezra Healey was a travelling Methodist minister in the area. And over the ensuing years, the church has been not only a place of religious fervour and beliefs but also of social gatherings and fellowship. And this tradition continues today as evidenced by the fall luncheon, bake sale and bazaar which is being held at the church this coming Saturday, Oct. 27 from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m.

Besides the baked goods and bazaar items, the event features a luncheon comprised of homemade soup, crusty bread and muffins. Everyone is welcome to attend this fall luncheon, bake sale and bazaar. The Ashton United Church, now part of the Ashton Pastoral Charge under pastor Rev. Matt Gallinger, has its roots in both the Methodist and Presbyterian churches of the past. In the early years of the 1820’s and 1830’s, the then-Methodist Church at Ashton was part of the Richmond Circuit. In 1884, the Ashton Circuit was

MARY COOK Mary Cook’s Memories My little friend Velma and I met at the back fence behind the Northcote School. Her feelings about Marguirite were just about the same as mine. How much do you want to bet she is still in her white storebought underwear that her mother buys in Walkers Store? Our eyes travelled over towards the gate where Marguirite was trying to work herself into a group of Senior Fourth girls who obviously wanted no part of her either. The less any of us had to do with the girl, the better we liked it. I was very aware of the heavy navy blue fleece lined bloomers I had been forced into a week ago. The weather now had a nip in the air and even a few snowflakes had fallen. There was no doubt fall was upon us and winter wasn’t far behind. It was a long walk to the Northcote School and we never knew when the weather was going to change and catch us with-

Marguirite swings into action out warm clothes. So Mother had long since ordered my sister Audrey into heavier white warm underpants and me into the navy blue fleece lined bloomers we got from the Eaton’s catalogue. I hated them with a passion. “Bet a dollar she doesn’t even own a pair of those bloomers,” Velma said. We looked over at Marguirite. There she was, bouncing around like a rubber ball in a brand new plaid coat with velvet collar, white stockings and her usual black patent leather Mary Jane shoes. “I don’t think so,” Velma said. With slitted eyes we watched Marguirite at the swinging gate. It was then Velma had a most brilliant idea. It would involve Cecil of course. Everything that had a bit of a risk to it, always involved Cecil. Velma told me to follow her. I was used to that order and walked with Velma over to the gate. The gate had to be kept hooked, because it was on a slant and slammed shut otherwise. Velma called Cecil aside. That in itself was unusual. Cecil had very little to do with we younger girls at the Northcote School. But I saw Velma take something out of her lunch bag and hand it over to Cecil and I saw him nodding and looking over at Marguirite.

“Who wants to swing on the gate?” Cecil hollered. We all loved to swing on the gate, and Marguirite was no exception. The young girls from Junior Third all yelled at once, but Cecil pointed to Marguirite and said she could go first. Velma beckoned me over and we stood close to the action. Cecil said you could get a better swing if you put yourself higher on the gate and bent over. He made Marguirite climb up near the top and then pushed her over so that her head was hanging down on the other side of the gate. I was surprised she went for it. Marguirite never took orders from anyone. Cecil stood on the side of the gate where her head was, and he ran the gate closed and then gave it a mighty heave and running, swung it wide open. Marguirite squealed with glee and Cecil gave her another ride for good measure. Then when the ride was over he accidentally pushed her off to the ground and she went spread eagle, head over tea kettle. I have no idea how he did it, but Cecil was able to have her land with her new plaid coat and everything under it around her shoulders. There for the entire Northcote School to see was her store-bought underwear from Walker Store, as white as the driven snow. No navy blue fleece lined bloomers for Marguirite. Velma just smiled in my direction. I asked Velma how she was able to get Cecil into the act. She said it cost her two molasses cookies.

Pilates-A-Thon raises $500 Special to the News

EMC news - Pilates is not only a fun way to exercise – it is also a fun-draising way to exercise. This was demonstrated at the first-ever Pilates-A-Thon which was held at the IM Pilates Studio at the Shops of Main Street Plaza in Stittsville on Saturday, Oct. 13 and Sunday, Oct. 14. Participants took part in half-hour classes guided not only by Isabella Moroz, owner of IM Pilates Studio, but also by a number of guest instructors from across the city. The classes were offered by donation, with a suggested contribution of $10 per class. The Pilates-A-Thon ended up raising $500 for the Do-It-For Daron program through support of the 9 RUN RUN that took place in Stittsville last Saturday, Oct. 20. The Do-It-For-Daron program is a youth mental health initiative associated with the Royal Ottawa Hospital which is developing suicide education programs, is enhancing clinical care and family support programs and is helping to reduce the stigma attached to mental illness in youth. The Pilates-A-Thon not only allowed partic-

ipants to begin a journey to enhanced posture awareness while enjoying the feeling of moving together in complete synchrony with the breath but also supported youth mental health through the Do-It-For-Daron program. Pilates is fun for even the youngest as well as for seniors and everyone in between. Pilates, which was pioneered by the late Joseph Pilates, is a mind-body exercise system designed to strengthen the weak and to challenge the strong. Pilates exercises help both men and women develop optimal strength, flexibility, endurance and posture without building bulk or stressing joints. Pilates builds core strength and stability, improves posture and alignment, increases flexibility, balance and coordination, improves muscular balance and strength, increases endurance and muscular tone, heightens body awareness, enhances athletic performance and can relieve stress and back paint. A Pilates workout is gentle and controlled with no sudden jarring actions. IM Pilates Studio can be contacted at 613435-9002 or via email at info@impilatesstudio.com .

Now, it reaches 500,000 households covering the area from Ottawa to Prescott, from Norwood to Trenton, and almost every community in between. It’s come a long way in those 34 years. I love cooking and I love experimenting to ďŹ nd out how a new dish will taste. I wish I could explain how much I’ve enjoyed creating hundreds of new recipes and sharing them with you. My reward has come every time that someone comes up to me and tells me how much they enjoy my column. When they tell me that they make a lot of my recipes, I’m delighted because that has always been my goal – to give you recipes that you will make and enjoy in your own kitchen. No matter who I talk to, I hear the same comment about my recipes again and again. They are easy to prepare with ingredients that you have on hand. This year, my life suddenly took an unexpected turn when I was diagnosed with lung cancer. Needless to say, this came as a complete shock, particularly as I had never smoked. I am now undergoing treatment and have had to make major changes in my life. As a result, this will be my last cooking col-

Fall turkey supper

EMC news - A fall turkey supper with all the trimming will be happening at St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church on McBean Street in Richmond on Saturday, Nov. 3.

umn. I have enjoyed writing about cooking for many years, and I know that I will miss it. I am giving you one last recipe, Jennie’s brownies. They are very easy to make and everyone loves them. Make them often and enjoy every delicious bite. Jennie’s Brownies * about 1 tsp. unsweetened cocoa powder to dust the baking pan * 1/2 cup butter * 1 cup white sugar * 2 eggs, well beaten with a fork * 1/2 cup our * 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder (not hot chocolate mix) * 1 tsp. vanilla * 1/2 cup chopped walnuts (optional) Butter the bottom and sides of a 20-centimetre square cake pan. Sprinkle one tsp. of cocoa powder over the buttered surfaces. Tap the pan to spread the powder evenly and discard any excess. In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Add the remaining ingredients and stir well. Pour the batter into the prepared pan. Bake at 350 F (175 C) for 20 to 25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the centre of the pan comes out clean. Cool the pan on a wire rack. These are good with or without icing. The supper will be served from 4:30 p.m. to 7 p.m. For adults, it will be only $15 per person. Children (aged 6 to 12) will be $7 each while children ďŹ ve and under will eat for free – what a deal! For tickets, please call 613-8385432 or 613-838-3723 and leave a message. R0011654670/1004

Cancer Society’s transportation program Continued from page 29

Not only does this result in transportation to the treatment for the patient but also it provides a new relationship for both driver and patient. “It’s such a positive experience for both the driver and the client,” said Ms. McKinlay-Key. While the Ottawa Unit currently has about 130 volunteer drivers, the need is there for probably 160 such drivers and so the Society is always looking for more volunteer drivers. Drivers are reimbursed for mileage although some give the mileage money back as a donation to the Cancer Society. Because of these mileage payments and the need for administrative coordination of the service so that drivers are matched with patients on the basis of factors such as availability and geographic location, this transportation program at the Ottawa Unit of the Canadian Cancer

Society costs $25,000 a year. The Unit recently launched a “Wheels of Hope” campaign in association with several car dealerships in the area where the car dealers would provide $50 donations to the program for every test drive. The goal of this campaign was set at $8,000. There are about 25 new clients every month for this transportation program. Drivers go through a four hour training course that provides them with some of the tools needed to cope with the emotional element involved with being a driver. Often clients want to tell their story and the drivers have to be prepared for this. For the Canadian Cancer Society, 49 percent of funds raised go to research projects. Another 40 percent goes to the various support services such as the transportation program, a peer support program, an information service, advocacy efforts and prevention initiatives.
