Olympic dream for Erica Wiebe John Curry

john.curry@metroland.com

Erica Wiebe’s dream is getting closer to realization. The Sacred Heart High School graduate took a big step towards realizing her dream of wrestling for Canada at the 2016 Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro by winning the freestyle women’s 75 kg class in the Canadian Wrestling Team Trials in Alberta which were held from Friday, Dec. 4 to Sunday, Dec. 6 in Strathcona County in Alberta. This gives her the opportunity to represent Canada at international qualifying events for the Olympics in the coming months and earn the right to compete for Canada at the Olympic Games.

Sacred Heart graduate Erica Wiebe wins in Canadian Wrestling Team Trials Continued from page 1

Coming out of the Canadian Wrestling Team Trials, Erica is the top ranked wrestler for the women’s freestyle 75 kg weight class. Upcoming international qualifying events for the Olympics include a Pan American Olympic qualifier in March in Frisco, U.S.A.; an international qualifier event in Mongolia in April; and another international qualifier event in Turkey in May. The 2016 Olympics will take place at Rio de Janeiro in Brazil from Aug. 5-21, 2016. Representing Canada at the Olympic Games is the culmination of eight years of working towards this goal by Erica. It all started for Erica, now 26 years old, who grew up in Stittsville, when she was in grade nine at Sacred Heart High School. Up until then, soccer had been her sport but then she saw a sign for co-ed wrestling and she became hooked on the sport of wrestling. The dream of excelling in the sport meant

that Erica moved to Calgary to pursue a degree in kinesiology and wrestle for the University of Calgary Dinos while continuing to strive to be a member of Team Canada and wrestle for Canada at the Olympics. When she arrived at the University of Calgary in the fall of 2007 after having graduated from Sacred Heart, she was asked to train with the senior women’s team that was gearing up for the 2008 Olympic Trials. Over the ensuing months, she was exposed to a new level of intensity in wrestling and she learned a lot. She herself did not have the opportunity to attend the Olympic Trials. Four years later, in the fall of 2011, Erica was finishing up her degree in kinesiology and was looking forward to her chance to represent Canada at the Olympic Games in 2012. She was ranked fourth in Canada going into the Olympic Trials. However, although she did not qualify for Team Canada in these Olympic Trials that year, she was selected as

NEW YEARS EVE GALA

Sept. 2014 and was a silver medal recipient at the Brazil Cup in Rio de Janeiro in Brazil in Dec. 2014. Besides being a full time athlete, Erica is also finishing up her second degree at the University of Calgary. She is also an ambassador for Fast & Female and Right To Play and also volunteers at various levels of wrestling. Erica was the women’s coach of the Calgary Area Zone 3 team youth team which won gold at the Alberta Winter Games. Erica also participates in the YES Program which stands for Youth Education through Sport. It is a partnership involving the Canadian Sport Institute Calgary and Encana that develops athletes as community leaders. Participants speak to grade four to six students in Alberta about the positive impact of sport.

She had this opportunity at the Canadian Wrestling Team Trials in Alberta earlier this month and she did not disappoint – she won her freestyle women’s 75 kg class.

Built Heritage Sub-Committee wants barn to stay in place John Curry john.curry@metroland.com

The red Bradley Craig barn on Hazeldean Road is not going anywhere in the view of the Built Heritage Sub-Committee of the city of Ottawa. The Sub-Committee voted at its meeting on Thursday, Dec. 10 that an application to disassemble and relocate the barn be refused. This means that the 140 year old barn with its roofline similar to a Romanesque or Gothic cathedral and diamond shaped clerestory windows will remain in place despite the wish of site owner Richcraft Homes to relocate the barn to Saunders Farm at Munster. The barn is a designated heritage struc-

ture. This decision by the city’s Built Heritage Sub-Committee will now go before city council’s planning committee next month for ratification. The planning committee’s decision on the matter will then go to the full Ottawa city council for a final decision. At the Stittsville Village Association (SVA) meeting on Thursday, Dec. 10, city of Ottawa Stittsville ward councillor Shad Qadri explained that he favoured relocation of the barn. This would be a process that would see the barn disassembled piece by piece and then reassembled at Saunders Farm at Munster. He feels that the barn will be maintained and get used by the public at Saunders Farm.

Michael Allen at Gaia Java shop

john.curry@metroland.com

At the Gaia Java Coffee Company shop in Stittsville, there’s a piece of art by Ben Gatien depicting an entertainer playing the guitar which hangs on the wall right beside the performance area for the shop’s Friday music evenings.

JOHN CURRY/METROLAND

Michael Allen is all set with his guitar to perform at the music evening at the Gaia Java Coffee Company shop last Friday.

But at last Friday’s music evening, this artwork was easily overshadowed by the real thing, singer/guitarist Michael Allen who delivered a varied program of music, both covers and originals, all accompanied by his guitar playing that was sometimes forceful, sometimes robust and always entertaining. Michael’s offerings ranged from “Fulsom Prison Blues� which was made famous by the renowned Johnny Cash to originals like the song “Rush� which he wrote about a month ago and was performing in public for only the second time. Michael describes his music style as “folk/ pop� which opens up his music to a wide range of fans. He grew up in Ottawa and is pursuing his passion for music, aiming towards the possibility of a career in music. Michael directed all of the proceeds collected last Friday evening from the donation jar for musicians at the Gaia Java shop to Habitat for Humanity. While there is no admission charge to attend a Friday music evening at the Gaia Java shop, those attending are encourage to drop a donation in a jar on the counter, with the proceeds usually going to help the musician or musicians performing with their expenses. The Gaia Java Coffee Company shop at the Stittsville Shopping Centre (Shoppers Drug Mart plaza) on Stittsville Main Street in Stittsville hosts a music evening every Friday at 7 p.m. Admission is free but early arrival is recommended for the best seating.

Leaving the barn in place will not ensure public access and will only ensure that the barn is only maintained to minimal standards i.e. fixing deficiencies. Councillor Qadri said that he would rather see the barn moved to Saunders Farm and not lost to the community from an unfortunate incident or deterioration. He said that Richcraft Homes has guaranteed the future of the Bradley Craig house that is also a heritage designated structure. It is the barn that is the issue, the councillor said.

SVA past president Phil Sweetnam commented that the best thing is to keep the barn in its present location. He said that the challenge is for the developer to come up with a viable use for the structure. The Built Heritage Sub-Committee, at its meeting, heard for several community delegations urging the retention of the barn in its present location. Saunders Farm has re-built and restored 11 heritage farm buildings on its site in Munster. Each of these buildings is identified with a plaque telling the history of the building.

Dissent at city hall a good thing

S

omething happened at city hall this week that didn’t please Mayor Jim Watson, but did indicate that the current crop of councillors sitting around the discussion table on Laurier Avenue are more than just a flock of sheep. Yes, there was honest to goodness dissent when it comes to – as Gloucester-Southgate Coun. Diane Deans describes it – “the mayor’s budget.� There was actual disagreement and five councillors broke ranks by voting against the budget. The fact that five councillors voted nay to the 2016 budget was news in and of itself because dissent at the council table is noteworthy because it is so rare. The councillors who balked at supporting the budget cited a lack of transparency around proposed job cuts, the city’s debt load and efficiencies. Deans said she couldn’t vote for “a budget process that turns a blind eye and a deaf ear to the concerns of the city’s most vulnerable members.� Ouch. Those are fighting words. College Coun. Rick Chiarelli also voted against the budget, saying the proposed cut of 50 jobs

from the city’s workforce was unclear and he couldn’t tell residents it wouldn’t affect services without knowing where the jobs would come from. Watson said of the job cuts that it’s not council’s job to get into the city’s human resources inner workings – there’s a city manager for that. Really? Is it not every councillor’s job to question what staff is doing in the name of the city, whether the mayor likes questions being raised or not? “It’s our collective responsibility to not simply oppose everything but to propose alternatives,� Watson said. How, pray tell, does one put forward an alternative when the original proposal has not been explained? The mayor may not like it when some councillors don’t blindly stumble along the line he has drawn. But for healthy debate and a healthy exchange of ideas at city hall, it is, to take up the mayor’s theme, the collective responsibility of councillors to ask questions and not always fall in line just because the mayor prefers it that way.

Something new afoot in the city

M

any years ago I was working on a story about visitors’ impressions of Ottawa. The one that struck me then and, still does, was from a British Columbia author, Audrey Thomas. She saw Ottawa as a city of bridges. That seemed odd. To me, a city of bridges meant Paris, or maybe London. But then I started to count them — and lost track. We have bridges over the Ottawa River, over the Rideau Canal and the Rideau River. Wikipedia counted them all up, including railway bridges, and came to more than 30. That’s a surprise. But if you are on foot, as visitors tend to be more than residents, you are more aware of bridges. Walk from the Arts Centre to

lapsed in 1953. Interesting. The river curves there. And it’s shallow in spots. There’s a view in each direction that you’ve never seen before. In a car you wouldn’t notice, and probably shouldn’t, if you’re watching the road. Plus they always give bridges high sides now to prevent drivers from looking over. In the winter you’ll be able to look down on the frozen river. In the spring, you’ll be able to see the ice break up. For pedestrians and cyclists and hikers some of the benefits are obvious. Others await discovery. There is now easier access to Strathcona Park, for example. How will it affect how people live? What will it do for folks on the other side now that the network of trails along the river is handy for the folks in Sandy Hill. Beyond that there is the impact of a new linking of neighbourhoods.

Overbrook to Sandy Hill and back. That could affect everything from vehicle traffic to real estate prices. It’s hard to see how anything bad can come of it. So much of the city’s development in the last decades has been about cars. It’s nice when the shoe is on the other footbridge.

‘Christmas in the Stable’ John Curry john.curry@metroland.com

The “One Holy Night – Christmas in the Stable� event that is happening this Saturday, Dec. 19 at Sunset Farms on Hazeldean Road in Stittsville came about because of an event at Sunset Farms earlier this year. The inspiration for this upcoming Christmas event arose from a summertime birthday party which was held at Sunset Farms. It was an 80th birthday party for the father of Karen

von Jagow of Stittsville and he just happens to be a huge Elvis Presley fan. So, the birthday party was planned with an Elvis Presley theme. It turned out to be a huge success, held in the barn at Sunset Farms. It happened that the pastor of the Trinity Presbyterian Church was at this birthday party and when it was seen what could be done in such a barn setting, it was suggested that perhaps a Christmas event focused on Christ’s birth in a stable could be held there.

Budget means $11 more in taxes Special to the News

Ottawa city council’s 2016 budget with its two percent property tax increase means that the average homeowner will pay $11 more in taxes. In Stittsville, the budget provides $40,000 per year for strategic initiatives in traffic calming, to be determined in consultation with the ward councillor. Such initiatives as the flex stake program which has been used on Liard Street and on Kittiwake Drive could be funded through this new allocation. The budget also includes $150,000 for two dehumidifiers for the older arena at the Goulbourn Recreation Complex in Stittsville. The budget also allocates $28.5 million for sewer projects in the Kanata West/Fernbank lands in Stittsville. This includes $500,000 for the Fernbank sanitary sewer, $8.7 million for collector sewers for Kanata West, $9 million for a Stittsville/Fernbank interceptor sewer;

$6.7 million for the Kanata West pump station and forcemain; and $3.6 million for a sanitary pump station and forcemain for the development area south of Hartsmere Drive. The budget also includes $2 million for turning lanes and enhanced traffic signals at the intersection of Huntmar Drive and Maple Grove Road, to be expended in 2018. Another 2018 expense projected in this budget is $400,000 for a new skateboard park in Stittsville. The budget freezes garbage fees for the fourth consecutive year. The budget contains a two million dollar increase in funding for affordable housing and homelessness programs. The budget increases funding for community health and resource centres by 1.5 percent. It also increases the funding for tree planting by $125,000 to continue the battle against the emerald ash borer.

The Stittsville District Lions Club gathered donations for the Stittsville Food Bank along the route of the recent Stittsville Pa-

rade of Lights. And as a result, the Club handed over $3,065 to the Food Bank at its meeting on Wednesday, Dec. 9 at the Lions Hall in Stittsville. Stittsville Food Bank chair Theresa Qa-

furbishing the star decorations that are put up on the street light poles along Stittsville Main Street at Christmas time and helping out the Food Bank every year by collecting non-perishable food items and cash donations for the Food Bank along the Christmas Parade of Lights route.

It was a dark June night. The Royal Canadian Navy Destroyer, HMCS Algonquin was 150 miles off the cost of California. Commanding Officer Tim Kerr was preparing the crew for a two month deployment. Tim’s life was about to change…forever. One minute Tim is running the treadmill in the ship’s gymnasium. The next thing he remembers is waking up in the US Navy Hospital in San Diego. Tim had suffered a brain hemorrhage and serious stroke. “I was unable to us my left arm or leg,” he recalls. “I couldn’t even sit up straight.” Even though Tim’s crew made life-saving decisions he still faced a very long road to recovery. Tim immediately began his fight to regain some of his previous life. Tim’s journey brought him to Élizabeth Bruyère Hospital. “Bruyère is a world-class facility,” says Tim. “They have the best people and they are focused on getting their patients up, out and back to a regular life. That’s what they did for me.” Tim spent six months at Bruyère as a patient in the Stroke Rehabilitation Unit and as an outpatient where he continued to receive rehabilitation services. “It was a tough six months” recalls Tim. “There were setbacks, tears and eventually…triumph, thanks to all the professionals at Bruyère.” Tim knows he was lucky to survive. People who meet him today have no idea he once suffered a massive stroke.

That’s why the Ottawa Food Bank has launched a refresh program that will provide fresh produce to partner agencies during the winter months. This is important because having fresh produce available makes a difference to the health and wellness of clients.

On Wednesday, December 9th, City Council approved the 2016 Budget. As was the case for the 2015 budget, the tax increase for 2016 was capped at 2%. Some features of the 2016 Budget include resurfacing projects on Moodie Drive (Brophy to Fallowfield), Bridge Street, Royal York Street (Fortune to Fowler), Ottawa Street (Fortune to Joy’s), and Rideau Valley Drive South (Stevens Creek to Lockhead). The Rideau Valley Drive South project was announced previously but was bumped to 2016. Third Line Road, from Roger Stevens Drive to Lockhead, will receive surface treatment while Flewellyn Road, between Huntley Road and Conley Road, will receive pavement preservation treatment. Two sidewalk projects will also occur next year: Beaverwood Road (Ann Street to Manotick Main Street) and the refurbishment of the sidewalk on Roger Stevens Drive, west of Fourth Line Road. The latter was also supposed to be done in 2015 but the scope of work required more time and money. Residents along Mackey Road can expect to see the portion of the road between Viola Street and McCordick Road upgraded from gravel surface. The play structure and canteen at the Alfred Taylor Recreation Centre are both scheduled for replacement as part of the 2016 Budget as well. While the transit levy will increase by 2.5%, the garbage collection rate has been frozen for the fourth consecutive year. For more information on the budget, you can visit Ottawa.ca/budget2016. If you have any budget related questions, please feel free to contact me.

Keep Valuables Safe this Holiday Season During the holiday season thefts from vehicles become a problem. By taking simple preventative measures such as ensuring your vehicle is completely locked and by either placing items of value out of sight or removing valuable items from your vehicle altogether, much of it can be avoided. Ottawa Police Officers are often seen in the community placing the “All Valuables Removed” cards on parked vehicles. This bright yellow card is a crime prevention initiative that contains important information on how to protect your property by providing tips to prevent vehicle theft and theft from vehicles, as well as important numbers to call if this happens to you. When this card is placed inside the driver’s side window, it advertises the fact that you are a part of a crime prevention initiative and that there is nothing of value in the vehicle, thus assisting in deterring any potential victimization. It is imperative that people always report to police when they are victimized, no matter how minor the incident is. If your car is broken into and nothing is stolen or damaged, Police still need to know because our Crime Analysts use this reported data along with all other crime to build strategies for our officers to tackle these problems in a more effective way. Often these crimes do not occur in isolation, but are often committed by the same individuals or groups whom we may be aware of already. When these crimes are not reported to police, the police are blind to strategically respond. To obtain an “All Valuables Removed” card or to get involved in crime prevention, you can contact your local Community Police Centre or visit www. ottawapolice.ca. If you have any comments, questions or concerns, please feel free to email me at Scott. Moffatt@ottawa.ca or contact me by phone at 613-580-2491.

Raising funds for Richmond’s 200th Special to the News

A local business/grassroots initiative is one part of a two-pronged marketing strategy which has been developed to raise the funds needed for Richmond’s 200th anniversary celebrations in 2018. The 2018 Planning Committee for these celebrations wants to raise enough funds by May 2018 to cover all of the costs related to the celebrations. Besides this local business/grassroots initiative, there will also be efforts made to secure government grants to help with the expenses. This local business/grassroots initiative is meant as an opportunity for local businesses, clubs, schools, churches, families and individuals to participate in the funding of these Richmond 200th anniversary celebrations. The initiative includes sponsorships and street lamp post banners. Beginning immediately, sponsorships are being accepted for the various celebration events or activities

Got Events?

in 2018. The cost is $300 for each sponsorship. Upon receipt of payment, the sponsor’s name will be placed on a priority list. Once all of the events and activities are scheduled, sponsors will be able to make a selection or selections in order of priority based on when the payment was made. A sponsor’s name or company logo will appear on the richmond200.ca home page, on the Richmond Village Association (RVA) website, in the RVA quarterly flyer and on all 2018 activity and event schedules, both online and printed hard copies. A sponsor will also be able to raise his or her own logo banner at the sponsored event or activity. There is also the possibility of exclusive sponsorships of an event or activity, with such requests consider on a first-come basis. For more information about sponsorships or to arrange a sponsorship, please contact Tino Bevacqua at tinobevacqua@richmondvillage.ca . A limited number of lamp post banners on Perth Street will be available on a first-come basis for the year 2018. Multiple banners can be purchased. Cost of a banner is $500. Banner sponsors can be businesses, churches, service clubs, sports teams, schools, families or even local streets (Neighbours can get together and fund a lamp post banner featuring their street). The sponsor’s name will appear on both sides of the banner along with the 2018 anniversary logo. The banners will be hung on the Perth Street lamp posts from January through December, 2018. Pledges can be placed now with a $100 deposit to confirm an order. The banner will be available to the sponsor to keep as a souvenir following the 2018 celebrations.

to arrange for such a sponsorship, please contact Tino Bevacqua at tinobevacqua@richmondvillage.ca or call 613-838-3466. The Richmond 2018 Planning Committee will also be offering a variety of promotional items and souvenirs at various prices. More information and details about these promotional items will be announced in the coming months. Another key part of the local business/grassroots fundraising initiative is fundraising undertaken by Richmond and area residents on a personal basis. This could be BBQ’s, fishing derbies, running/ walking races, bike-a-thons, golf tournaments, raffles, garage sales, chocolate bar sales, bake sales, lemonade sales, bottle drives or any other fundraising activity. All funds raised from these personal fundraising events, no matter whether just a few dollars or something larger, can be deposited directly to the special RVA 2018 Celebration Account at the TD Canada Trust branch in Richmond. After making such a deposit, the person or group should contact Tino Bevacqua at tinobevacqua@ richmondvillage.ca or at 613-8383466 to have a photo tyaken at the 2018 Recognition Platform which is going to be located at the corner of Perth Street and Huntley Road in Richmond. These photos will appear in the local newspaper as well as on the RVA and richmond200.ca websites. Sponsors and lamp post banner buyers will also have their photos taken for publication. Another aspect of the fundraising for the Richmond 200th anniversary celebrations in 2018 will be cash donations and the provision of in-kind services. All such donations will be enthusiastically accepted. Richmond’s 200th anniversary celebrations will take place throughout the year 2018 but there will be a concentrated focus on the weekend of June 15-17, 2015.

Stittsville Peewee C Titans are champs! Special to the News

Having to win a final round robin game to advance to semi-final action. Pressure.

Playing a super game to win the semi-final game by a 5-0 score, advancing to the championship game. Awesome. And then

scoring the only goal of the championship game to emerge as champions of the Holiday House Tournament at the Kanata Sensplex. Priceless. This was the experience of the Stittsville Peewee C Titans who played in

Submitted

Members of the Stittsville Peewee C Titans, gold medal champions in the recent Holiday House League Tournament at the Kanata Sensplex, are, front row, kneeling, from left, Dominic Dumond, goalie Jamie Dionne, Kierin Robinson, Carter Rennick and Ashton Hoare; and, back row, standing, from left, Ryan Xu, Tyler Jordan, David Goodwin, Maya Adams, Logan Salisbury, Jack Williams, Liam Jessiman, Ryan Smith and Emilie Dumond. Missing from the picture are the members of the team’s coaching staff: head coach Chris Salisbury, assistant coaches Steve Rennick and Scott Jessiman and trainer Mark Hoare.

the Holiday House Tournament hosted at the Kanata Sensplex from Friday, Dec. 4 to Sunday, Dec. 6. While the Titans emerged as tournament champions, it was anything but a breeze. Goalie Jamie Dionne kept the Titans in all of their games and came up big, posting shutouts in both the semi-final and the championship game. You can’t get any better than that! Move over, Patrick Roy! The Titans took on the Vaudreuil-Dorion Vikings in the championship game on Sunday afternoon, Dec. 6. The two teams had tied in their round robin game thanks to a goal by Veudreuil-Dorion with only 36 seconds left in the game. The championship game saw only one goal scored and that was at the 5:51 mark of the first period when Emilie Dumond of the Stittsville Peewee C Titans scored after taking a pass from the defence up the middle. This goal and the goaltending of Jamie Dionne was enough to give the Titans a 1-0 victory and the championship trophy, the championship banner and the gold medals in the tournament. The Titans had advanced to the championship final with a 5-0 shutout victory against the Ottawa West C1 team. In round robin play, the Titans played West End C3 in their opening game, overcoming any nervousness to win by a 4-1 score. Music from Carter Rennick in the dressing room and encouragement from coach Chris Salisbury and assistant coaches Steve Rennick and Scott Jessiman helped settle down the squad and set it on the road to victory. Saturday morning saw the Titans play against the Vaudreuil-Dorion Vikings, the team that the Titans would eventually meet in the championship final. See STITTSVILLE TITANS, page 30

will have the best equipment. CT scans are the backbone of Medical Imaging. They give radiologists the critical information needed to diagnose and save lives. CHEO needs a new CT scanner that will transform CHEO’s ability to improve technique and decrease scan time. Pictures of your child’s brain or body can be obtained much faster! These pictures are very accurate and detailed and they allow radiologists to detect small and important changes or concerns.

It will have a tremendous impact on patient care. From babies to teenagers, patients who need these exams must be exposed to radiation in order to find a diagnosis. With the new technologies available, new scanners emit lower radiation doses significantly and are much faster. This means a patient spends less time on the CT table! It can mean a reduced need for anesthesia as well.

PLEASE HELP US PURCHASE THIS REVOLUTIONARY PIECE OF TECHNOLOGY TO HELP CHEO’S PATIENTS, JUST LIKE VIENNA. Have a profound impact on the life of a child!

Museum’s Christmas card John Curry

john.curry@metroland.com

It was just a single shot taken by South Carleton High School student Jordyn Simpson but the photograph has made its way onto the front of the Goulbourn Museum’s 2015 Christmas card. Jordyn, 15, was one of three volunteer photographers who donated their time on Sunday, Nov. 22 taking pictures at the Goulbourn Museum’s “OldFashioned Christmas & Outdoor Artisan Market.” This involved not only taking photographs of children with Santa Claus but also in roaming around the event, taking candid shots of the activities. Jordyn, who is a grade ten student at South Carleton High School who lives in Stittsville, snapped a photo

of Santa’s hands writing the words “Merry Christmas.” “Jordyn’s photo stood out for its holiday charm and artistic angle,” says Goulbourn Museum curator manager Kathryn Jamieson in explaining why the photograph was selected for the Museum’s Christmas card. “We love the idea of creating an annual tradition where someone from the community has a hand in designing the Museum’s Christmas card,” she adds. Credit for the photograph is given to Jordyn on both the front and rear of the card. This Christmas card featuring Jordyn’s photograph will be sent by the Museum to members, donors, volunteers and contributors. Jordyn explains that her selected photo was just a single shot with the camera; she

She says that she took several good Christmassy photos during the Museum’s “OldFashioned Christmas & Outdoor Artisan Market” but that the one selected for the Christmas card was one of her best. She had heard about the opportunity to take photographs at the Museum’s “OldFashioned Christmas & Outdoor Artisan Market” from her teacher in a communications class at South Carleton where she has learned about the Photoshop computer program and animation. She expressed interest and then attended a training session at the Museum a week before the event to become familiar with the camera to be used and to receive instructions about what photos should be taken at the event. There was a suggestion that one of the photos might be used on the Museum’s Christmas card. Jordyn will be putting the Goulbourn Museum’s 2015 Christmas card featuring her photograph in her portfolio. Indeed, it is the first entry in the portfolio. Jordyn was one of three volunteer photographs to donate their time taking photos at the Goulbourn Museum’s “Old-Fashioned Christmas ^ Outdoor Artisan Market.” The others were Ashley Fong and Dan Pak. This is not the first time that the Goulbourn Museum has been assisted by volunteer photographers . A volunteer photographer from Henry’s photo store looked after the photo booth at the Museum’s 2014 Father’s Day event and a volunteer photographer took photos of families with Santa Claus at last year’s pre-Christmas event hosted by the Museum.

The Titans scored the opening goal of this game but Vaudreuil-Dorion came back to tie up the game 1-1 by the end of the first period. A scoreless second period saw the teams going into the third period still tied at 1-1. The Titans scored to take a 2-1 lead but a late penalty and the Vikings pulling their goalie gave the Vikings a six-on-four situations. With only 36 seconds left in the game, Vaudreuil-Dorion scored to tie up the game 2-2.

With one win and one tie in round robin play, the Titans went into their Saturday afternoon game against the Leitrim Hawks needing a victory to ensure a trip to the semifinals. The Leitrim Hawks also had a win and a tie, so both teams gave it everything that they had, knowing that the winner would be off to semi-final action. The Stittsville Titans ended up winning by a 2-1 score.

‘All That Glam’ raises $20,250 to help feed youth in North John Curry

Collecting for Toy Mountain With toys for Toy Mountain collected at A. Lorne Cassidy Elementary School in Stittsville, with the collection headed up by the class of Jodi Eady, are students, at the front, Aliera Melnikoff, left, and Rabia Wahab, right; and, at the back, standing, from left, Harrison MacIntosh, Connor Brown and Rhys McRae.

“All That Glam,” the fundraiser that helps feed youth in the Far North, set records at this year’s third annual event on Saturday, Nov. 28. There were more donations of jewellery and handbags than ever before. There were more people than ever at the event which was held at the Richcraft Centre in Kanata. And, best of all, this third annual “All That Glam” fundraiser raised more funds than ever before, namely $20,250. Working with the Breakfast Club of Canada, these funds will be used to help feed youth in Canada’s Far North, a region where many children start their day hungry or under-nourished. “All That Glam” is the brainchild of Eva von Jagow when she was a student at Sacred Heart High School in Stittsville. Now a university student in Montreal, she has retained her interest in helping combat the high cost and unavailability of food in the Far North as her “All That Glam” initiative has become an annual fundraising event in which she remains involved. “All That Glam” happens thanks to months of planning and work by volunteers and by community support.

New faces at open mic night in Richmond John Curry john.curry@metroland.com

JOHN CURRY/METROLAND

Ray Wells plays his mandola as his mandolin sits on a stand beside him as he performs at the open mic night in Richmond.

The open mic night at the Richmond Curling Club lounge last Friday not only attracted a full lineup of performers but also attracted some new entertainers not seen and heard before at these open mic sessions. Indeed, this was very much the case for Ray Wells who was performing as a musician in public for the first time ever. He is not, however, a stranger to public performances as he was one of the models in the recent “Womanless Fashion Show” staged at St. John’s Anglican Church hall on Saturday, Oct. 24. Ray played both a mandolin and a mandola, both of which he had constructed himself. Both are stringed musical instruments with the mandola being a larger version of the mandolin. A mandola is to the mandolin what the viola is to the violin, he explained. Ray makes his own man-

dolin and mandolas which feature a spruce front while the rest is maple. He followed plans laid out in a book and even winterized a space in order to have a workshop in which to make them. Another new face at last Friday’s open mic in Richmond, albeit not a newcomer to performing, was Lloyd Frost who is not only a singer and songwriter but also is a filmmaker as well. His recent CD “The Sun Is Rising” is dedicated to those who have fallen in terrorist attacks. One of his musical offerings at the open mic session was called “Santa Clara Town” about the town of Santa Clara in Cuba. And while there was some new, there’s was lots of returning talent at this open mic night which started off as per tradition with organizer Andrew McKim performing with Scott Andrews on vocals. Kevin Kilmartin was a triple threat as he not only sang but played the guitar and

also the harmonica which was held in place around his neck. A songwriter, he performed songs that he had written. Last Friday was a day of record warm temperatures as the mild early December weather continues. And although there was no snow on the ground outside, there was evidence of snow in the curl-

ing club lounge, with giant white snowflakes hanging from the ceiling and snowflakes adorning the windows around the lounge. These open mic nights at the Richmond Curling Club lounge in Richmond are held more or less monthly. The next open mic night will be held on Friday, Jan. 22, 2016, running as usual from 8 p.m.

to 11 p.m. Everyone is welcome to attend these open mic nights or to perform at them. There is no cover charge but donations of non-perishable items for the Richmond Food Bank are encouraged. For more information about these open mic nights, please email acoustic. in.richmond@gmail.com .

‘The Sounds of Christmas’ lives up to its name John Curry john.curry@metroland.com

It was an event that lived up to its name. Entitled “The Sounds of Christmas,” this evening of Christmas music was all that and more as Christmas songs and indeed the Christmas spirit filled St. Philip’s Hall in Richmond. Held on Sunday evening, Dec. 6, this annual happening brings together the churches in Richmond in a celebration of Christmas in song and music. In addition, a free will offering with the proceeds going to support the

Richmond Food Bank takes places. This year’s “The Sounds of Christmas” event featured both individual and group performances, all presented on the stage area at the St. Philip Parish Hall. A decorated Christmas tree stood on the stage, along with a crèche, adding to the Christmas spirit of the event. It all began with a brief service involving the lighting of advent candles, led by the clergy present: Rev. Bob Poole of St. Philip Catholic Church, Rev. Michel Dubord of St. John’s Anglican Church, Rev. Carla Van Delen of St. Paul’s United Church, Rev. John

Spurrell of Grace Assembly and Deacon Mark Masson of St. Philip Catholic Church. Following this service, the entertainment began. There was Phyllis Wright playing the piano and singing about the “rugged cross of Calvary”; young Maggie Burton presenting “Christmas for Cowboys”; Susan Barnett performing with Elly The Elephant; Gerry Seed singing with Saundra Vandenberg providing the piano accompaniment; Rev. Dubord and Kathy Gagne singing “Lean In Toward the Light,” a song focussed on the advent themes of hope and light; Stephen Mayne singing and playing the guitar; and Jena Spurrell singing “Silent Night”; and more. There were also performances by the St. Paul’s United Church choir and a St. Philip Church choir under the direction of Nicole Lahey which presented a medley of Christmas songs. The free will offering taken up at the event saw $460 raised for the Richmond Food Bank. This was in addition to a table full of donated non-perishable food items which were also contributed by the more than 80 people attending the event. Isabel Thompson, representing the Richmond Food Bank, told those in attendance that this “The Sounds of Christmas” event

has provided several thousand dollars to the Food Bank over the years. She explained that the funds are much appreciated and needed as this is the time of year when the Food Bank prepares Christmas baskets for those who it helps. She explained that the Richmond Food Bank, which began in 1985, occupies a very small space at St. Paul’s United Church. She said that the Food Bank hopes to be involved with a community space initiative that would see the Food Bank have a more spacious home so that it could offer more services such as providing perishable items such as bread and produce. She noted that the Food Bank currently provides clients with gift cards purchased by funds donated to the Food Bank that can be used to purchase perishable items. The Richmond Food Bank provides hampers to its clients not only at Christmas time but also at Easter and at Thanksgiving as well. At the end of the one and a half hour event, MC Rev. John Spurrell praised the entertainers, saying that there could be a show called “Richmond’s Got Talent” based on the talent exhibited in this “The Sounds of Christmas” event. Refreshments were provided following the performances.

Annual tree lighting ceremony at Sacred Heart John Curry

feature , an inukshuk, a Metis sash, Christmas gifts and bows symbolizing the spirit of giving and a star symbolizing prophecy fulfilled with the Birth of Christ. The nativity scene re-enactment saw students assume the various roles of the nativity story, all ending up together around the crèche erected in the foyer. The singing of “Joy to The World” concluded the tree lighting ceremony itself but the event was far from over then. There were various family activities then offered including cookie decorating, face painting, crafts, colouring and goodies including hot chocolate, apple cider and cake. There was a display by SchoolBox, the organization whose volunteers travel to Nicaragua to help build schools and also a display by “Starlight,” the candleholder developed by a group of Sacred Heart High School students which was contributing two dollars from every one sold to the Shepherds of Good Hope. There was also a display of art John Curry/Metroland featuring scenes from the DominiSacred Heart Catholic High School students who are wearing Santa hats and are singing together at the can Republic where Sacred Heart school’s annual tree lighting ceremony on Wednesday evening, Dec. 9 are, from left, Sarah Dimpengi, students go on mission trips.

Dec. 9 as over 250 people jammed the school atrium for the event, filling up all of the white-covered chairs with their seasonal red ribbons and also standing around the perimeter of the space. Those entering by the school’s front door were greeted by something new this year – a group of students carolling beside a lamp post. It was the Sacred Heart con-

cert band and choir which began the program, presenting a number of Christmas songs including a humourous presentation of the “Twelve Days of Christmas” by the band under the direction of music teacher Matt Dawber. The tree lighting ceremony itself included the presentation of five lights which were placed at the base of the tree; the gradual turning on of the lights on the tree in

stages with the singing of “O Come All Ye Faithful”; the wrapping of the tree with a paper chain symbolizing the chain of connections between the school and community; and the presentation of a number of Christmas symbols including the tree lights (symbols of the light of Jesus), Christmas balls representing all of the students and departments at the school, angels and doves, a First Nations friendship

Sacred Heart Catholic High School principal Alex Belloni called it “a very special night.” And it was such a night because it provided an opportunity for students, staff and parents of the Sacred Heart community to get together and mark the season of Advent. It was the occasion of the annual family tree lighting ceremony at the school when a tall Christmas tree in the school’s atrium not only had its lights turned on for the Christmas season but also was adorned with symbols of the Christmas season. All of this was done with the participation of the school’s Girls’ Youth Choir and its Only Boys Aloud group who led the musical aspects of the ceremony. And, as in past years, this ceremony also featured a re-enactment of the nativity story, with Mary and Joseph finding shelter in a stable where they were joined by angels and shepherds and eventually by the three Kings who were following a star that led them to the new-born King. This family tree lighting ceremony began at 5:30 p.m. on Wednesday, Chanel Rehman, Reilly Moore, Amanda Maniraho, Bianca Silva and Lahra Daniel.

O LITTLE TOWN OF BETHLEHEM Phillips Brooks 19th Century Lewis H. Redner 19th Century

O little town of Bethlehem, How still we see thee lie! Above thy deep and dreamless sleep The silent stars go by; Yet in the dark streets shineth The everlasting Light; The hopes and fears of all the years Are met in thee tonight. For Christ is born of Mary; And gathering all above, While mortals sleep, the angels keep Their watch of wondering love. O morning stars, together Proclaim the holy birth, And praises sing to God the King, And peace to men on earth. How silently how silently, The wonderous gift is given! So God imparts to human hearts The blessings of His heaven. No ear may hear His coming; But in this world of sin, Where meek souls will receive Him, still The dear Christ enters in. O Holy Child of Bethlehem, Descend to us, we pray; Cast out our sin, and enter in; Be born in us today. We hear the Christmas angels The great glad tidings tell; O come to us, abide with us, Our Lord Emmanuel.

Deck the halls with boughs of holly, Fa la la la la la la la la. ’Tis the season to be jolly, Fa la la la la la la la la. Don we now our gay apparel, Fa la la la la la la la la. Troll the ancient Yuletide carole, Fa la la la la la la la la.

Dashing thro’ the snow In a one horse open sleigh, O’er the fields we go, Laughing all the way; Bells on bob-tail ring, Making spirits bright, What fun it is to ride and sing A sleighing song tonight! (Refrain) Jingle bells, Jingle bells! Jingle all the way! O what fun it is to ride In a one horse open sleigh!

A day or two ago I thought I’d take a ride, And soon Miss Fannie Bright Was seated by my side; The horse was lean and lank, Misfortune seem’d his lot He got into a drifted bank, And we, we got up-sot.

sthelens.ca

Now the ground is white, Go it while you’re young, Take the girls tonight, And sing the sleighing song. Just get a bob-tailed nag, Two forty for his speed, Then hitch him to an open sleigh, And crack! you’ll take the lead.

Happy Pawlidays!

See the blazing Yule before us, Fa la la la la la la la la. Strike the harp and join the chorus, Fa la la la la la la la la. Follow me in merry measure, Fa la la la la la la la la. While I tell the Yuletide treasure, Fa la la la la la la la la.

Sanctuary

It came upon a midnight clear, That glorious song of old, From angels bending near the earth To touch their harps of gold:“Peace on earth, goodwill to men, From heaven’s all-gracious King!” The world in solemn stillness lay To hear the angels sing.

You know Dasher and Dancer and Prancer and Vixen, Comet and Cupid and Donner and BlitzenBut do you recall the most famous reindeer of all?

Still through the cloven skies they come. With peaceful wings unfurled: And still their heavenly music floats O’er all the weary world; Above its sad and lowly plains They bend on hovering wing. And ever o’er its Babel Sounds The blessed angels sing. And ye, beneath life’s crushing load, Whose forms are bending low, Who toil along the climbing way With painful steps and slow, Look now! for glad and golden hours come swiftly on the wing; O rest beside the weary road, and hear the angels sing. For lo, the days are hastening on, By prophet bards foretold, When with the ever circling years Comes round the age of gold; When peace shall over all the earth Its ancient splendors fling, And the whole world give back the song Which now the angels sing.

In other words, “have yourself a merry little Christmas!”

‘Breakfast with Santa’ at Stittsville Legion Hall John Curry

john.curry@metroland.com

Santa Claus and Mrs. Claus were not at home at the North Pole last Saturday morning. No, instead they were at the Stittsville Legion Hall in Stittsville.

Indeed, the Legion Hall became “North Pole Stittsville” as the hall was filled with youngsters and their parents, all there to enjoy breakfast with Santa. Youngsters could also have their photos taken with Santa and Mrs. Claus by a Santa elf. The tables were all covered with

red tablecloths, giving a festive appearance to the hall. This was an appearance enhanced by Christmas tree-like decorations on each table; by garland, wreaths, balloons and Santa faces decorating the space; by Christmas lights strung along one wall; and by a small lighted

Christmas tree at the front of the hall. There was also colouring for youngsters to do. All of this was free including the family breakfast of pancakes, juice, tea and coffee. Those attending, though, were urged to donate a non-perishable food item to help out the Stittsville Food Bank.

The Stittsville Legion also used the occasion to present a $500 donation to the Stittsville Food Bank. This first-ever “Breakfast with Santa” at the Stittsville Legion Hall, running from 8:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m., was co-hosted by the Stittsville Legion along with Bill Martin and Sue Lambe of Century 21 John DeVries Real Estate Ltd.

MARY COOK Memories We hadn’t had the old Model T Ford for a full year. It came to us through the simple act of a trade. A neighbour needed sand from our gravel pit, he had no money to pay for it, and we got the old battered car instead of cash. It was that simple. The deal was made with the shake of a hand. Load after load of gravel was hauled by my brothers to the neighbour’s culvert, which had been washed away with the spring runoff of the Bonnechere River, and when the final load was delivered, my brother Everett drove the old Model T home. It wasn’t much to look at. The two front fenders were different colours, a result of the original owner trying, and failing, to paint over a deep dent, and there was a hole in the floor board in the back seat as big as a pie plate that allowed you to see the washboard road out of Northcote without looking out the window. But it was our first car, and it opened up a whole new world for us. The time it took to ride into Renfrew with the horse was cut in half, and Mother who

Father’s Model T paint job

soon mastered the fine art of driving the old car, even ventured as far as Ottawa. But those mismatched fenders didn’t sit well with Father. He managed to partially repair the dent with a hammer, and he said one day when he had a bit of time to spare, he would nail a piece of tin over the hole in the floorboards in the back. And then, after the first snow fall that year (and it was a doozie) Father said it was time to think about putting the car up for the winter. I was really upset, because I never once thought we couldn’t drive the Model T through the snow. Father pointed to the narrow tires with the stem of his pipe and said, “Ya wouldn’t even get as far as the gate in the snow with those.” So Father drove the car into the drive shed where it would sit until the spring thaw. Father was pretty proud of that old car. And that fall day he decided it was only fitting that the Model T have fenders that matched. Buying new ones from Thacker’s Garage in Renfrew, even if they were available, was out

Deaf? Hard of hearing? Want a job?

of the question, so Father decided he would paint them both the same colour. He looked over all the old cans of paint stacked on a shelf in the drive shed. There were bits and drabs of paint; a bright green used to freshen the pump in the Spring. About an inch in the bottom of another paint can was bright orange. And then Father locked his eyes on the can of silver paint used to paint the stove pipes in the house. “By gar, there’s enough here to do the job real nice,” he said, shaking the can to make sure. He got a paint brush that had been sitting in a pot of turpentine, gave it a few swipes with an old rag he found on the dirt floor, and without consulting Mother, began slapping the silver paint onto the two front fenders. Father had to scrape the bottom of the paint pail to get the very last drop out, which he slathered over the already painted fenders for good measure. Well, all of this was done without consulting Mother. It was getting dark in the drive shed when he asked me to run in the house and get Mother. “Don’t tell her about the painting... just tell her I need her out here for a real nice surprise.” Well, Mother threw a sweater over her house dress and went out to see what Father wanted, with my sister Audrey close on her heels. What he wanted, and what he expected was for Mother to be overjoyed with the new silver fenders! She slapped her hand over her

mouth, and said nothing. It was Audrey who said exactly what she thought of Father’s paint job. She vowed she wouldn’t be caught dead in a car with silver fenders, and that’s all there was to it. She said if she had to drive into town in it, Father could let her out at the outskirts. Well, she wouldn’t have to worry about it for a few months anyway. The car was in the drive shed for the winter. The next day, a Saturday it was, Father rounded up the three brothers, and rolled four big blocks of wood from the wood pile into the drive shed. And as if it was as light as a feather, they hoisted up the car and put the four blocks under it, freeing the wheels from the cold dirt floor for the winter. Audrey changed her mind about riding in the car with the silver fenders when she found out she either got in or stayed home when Spring rolled round. As for me, I thought the paint job added a touch of class to the old car. I knew we were the owners of the only car in all of Renfrew County with silver fenders, and a hole in the floor where I could see the Northcote road without even looking out a window.

Once again this year, Nancy Evoy-Veilleux and her family of Richmond are hosting an Open Table dinner on Christmas Day at the St. John’s Anglican Church hall in Richmond. The doors will open at 4:30 p.m. with the dinner served at 5 p.m. And, remember, there is absolutely no charge for this dinner. Anyone who will be alone this Christmas and who would like to enjoy a Christmas Day meal with others is very much invited to attend and enjoy this meal. If you would like to attend but do not drive, no problem. Someone will pick you up and then return you home afterwards. If you would like to enjoy this Christmas meal but would prefer to stay at home, again

no problem. The meal will be delivered to you or you can drop by the Anglican Church hall and pick up the meal. So, there is no reason why anyone should be alone or without a Christmas dinner this coming Christmas Day.

If you are interested in attending or would like more information, please contact Nancy at 613-838-5032 or via email at nancy.veilleux@bell.net .

There were no snowflakes on the ground outside Trinity Presbyterian Church on Richardson Sideroad last Sunday afternoon, very unChristmas-like, but there was plenty of Christmas spirit inside the church. That’s because the Goulbourn Male Chorus was presenting its annual Christmas concert entitled “Christmas Blessings” which was packed with Yuletide tunes that brought out the Christmas spirit in everyone, no matter if there was snow outside or not. The 21-voice Male Chorus sang several widely known Christmas songs like “The Little Drummer Boy/ Peace on Earth,” “O Holy Night” and “We Wish You A Merry Christmas.” Of course, the most familiar tunes were audience participation sing-alongs such as “Hark the Herald Angels Sing,” “O Come All Ye Faithful,” “It Came Upon

A Midnight Clear” and “Joy to the World.” The program also saw the Male Chorus sing other seasonal songs such as “At Christmas Time,” “Here We Come A-Wassailing” and “Nutcracker Jingles.” The Male Chorus was joined in the program by two groups, the guest Interlude Trio classical instrumental music group and the “Men of Note,” an ensemble drawn from the main chorus. The Interlude Trio was comprised of Bonnie MacDiarmid on piano, Jackie Morris on violin and Sandra Allan on cello. They performed “Gesu

was like a non-stop Christmas music CD – one familiar Yuletide tune after another. So the more than 35 residents, The Christmas spirit took over family, friends and volunteers who the Richmond Lodge Retirement gathered in the lounge area at the Richmond Lodge got to hear (and, yes, singing along was encouraged) a steady diet of Christmas songs including “Silver Bells,� “Here Comes Santa Claus,� “O Holy Night,� “White Christmas,� “Silent Night,� “Jingle Bell Rock,� “Rockin’ Around the Christmas Tree,� “Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas,� “Winter Wonderland,� “Frosty the Snowman,� “Have A Holly Jolly Christmas� and “Santa Claus Is Coming To Town.� And besides these traditional favourites, “Forever Friends� also sang “Mele Kalikimaka,� a seasonal tune with an Hawaiian flavour, and two fun Christmas songs, “Grandma Got Run Over By A Reindeer� and “Snoopy vs the Red Baron.� Red Christmas bows in the winJohn Curry/Metroland Members of the “Forever Friends� musical group who are performing at the Richmond Lodge Retirement dows, a miniature Christmas village Residence in Richmond last Saturday afternoon are, from left, Jim Smyth, sitting on a stool, Sharon Lahaise, on display and seasonal decorations around the lounge all added Geoff Lahaise, James Robertson, Isabelle Robertson and Chuck Colford.
