Wednesday, June 20

Wasn’t that a wonderful party, ArnpriorSherry [email protected]

It was, by all accounts, one heck of a party.From Friday night’s outdoor movie at the park to Sun-

day’s musical tribute to Mac Beattie, the celebrations held over the weekend to celebrate the Town of Arnprior’s 150th anniversary went off without a hitch.

Weather was hot and sunny for the event, which has been in the works for about a year.

An estimated 12-13,000 people came through town to enjoy the celebrations, reported Coun. Lynn Grinstead, chair of the anniversary committee.

“Lots of people said they haven’t seen that many people in Robert Simpson Park since Salute to the Valley,” said Grinstead. “We all know the saying ‘it takes a village?’ Well, in this case it took a town – a town that is passionate and proud.”

She thanked all involved, from organizers to those in at-tendance, for the solid community effort.

Organizers estimated about 350 people came to Robert Simpson Park Friday night for an outdoor showing of fam-ily movie Real Steel.

Saturday’s parade, marshaled by the Arnprior Legion, kicked off things in grand style and brought back memories of days gone by with volunteers in period costume and vin-tage vehicles set against the town’s historic downtown.

A host of guests joined the committee and council mem-bers for Saturday’s opening ceremonies in the park.

Volunteers in period costume, including these lovely ladies gathered on John Street, helped transform Arnprior for the June 8-10 150th anniversary celebrations.

EMC news – It was with little comment but a sense of relief at Monday’s meeting that Arnprior council accepted McNab-Braeside’s recreation agreement offer.

The township agrees to pay $127,762 this year, and $151,406 next year for recreation services at Nick Smith. Arnprior proposed $142,584; the township offered $112,940. Arnprior accepted the two-year deal, despite wanting a fi ve-year one.

“It’s a good fi rst step,” said Mayor David Reid. “It’s not where we want to be, but a start.”

Reeve Walter Stack congratulated Reid on his handling of the fi le, which sparked controversy in both municipalities, culminating in a large protest that nearly shut down a town-ship council meeting last week.

“It was well managed, well researched, well done,” said Stack.

He added that he hopes McNab-Braeside will agree to a joint recreation committee to fi nd a lasting solution.

All councillors present voted in favour of the deal.

Derek [email protected]

EMC news – The last chapter in the service agreements saga ended with a nail-biter of a deal for recreation. The next starts in a similar way, with no deal in place for McNab-Braeside residents’ use of the Arnprior Public Library.

Arnprior, at Monday’s council meeting, re-jected McNab-Braeside’s counteroffer.

Mayor David Reid said if a deal isn’t inked out by June 30, township households will be charged $60 to use the library, and won’t have any board representation.

Other non-residents have the same deal in place.

McNab-Braeside in a June 7 letter to the town said it was willing to pay $45 per partici-pating household in 2012 and 2013, but that the library board must allow township staff to audit their records on site.

“It’s not acceptable,” said Reid, who added that if that scenario played itself out, all Arnpri-or households would be on the hook for $77.61 compared to the township’s $14.66 (assuming

the current 997 participating households con-tinue to be card-carriers); the town also pays $45,000 in operating costs.

Arnprior rejected the proposal on monetary but also on moral grounds.

Reid said for the township to move to a user fee system when it comes to library services means those who can’t afford to pay on their own will be denied important access points.

“I would say there is a moral case for not using user fees,” Reid said.

In turn, those who can afford to pay but won’t pay, would lead to even greater pressure on the town’s tax base. With less revenue, costs escalate.

As for McNab-Braeside concerns for trans-parency, Reid shrugged off the township’s past experience of having far fewer users than are actually paying for.

In the past it was shown that many deceased people or those who have moved away were still recorded as library users.

Continued from front

Arnprior Mayor David Reid, McNab-Braeside May-or Mary Campbell, Renfrew-Nipissing-Pembroke MPP John Yakabuski, Renfrew County Warden Bob Sweet and a host of others brought greetings and congratulated the town and its residents on the special anniversary.

Senior of the year Doug Scheels was recognized for his long-time community support during the opening.

A highlight of Saturday’s opening ceremonies was two Mile High Parachute Club jumpers who landed in the Ottawa River in front of the beach during the ceremonies.

The park, main street, mu-seum and beyond were alive with activity all weekend and organizers are pleased with attendance at all events.

There were activities for young and alike. The pio-neer village, Wild West and

lumberjack shows and 42nd Field Regiment activities are among the features that drew in the crowds.

There are still anniversary souvenirs, including shirts, books, and hats, available at town hall.

Coun. Lynn Grinstead150th committee chair

Well we made it. A year and a half ago when the commit-tee was formed and we started having regular meetings, our 150th seemed so far away.

As chair of the 150th com-mittee, I want to express on behalf of the committee, the mayor and council our appre-ciation to everyone who took part in this past weekend’s celebrations.

We all know the saying ‘it takes a village’. Well, in this case it took a town - a town that is passionate and proud.

From these proud citizens who stepped up to assist in the planning of this celebration was fi rst the core team, the 150th anniversary committee.

This team has that passion for our town, and I want to ex-press my appreciation to each of them for the hours of work that they have committed to us and for their assistance.

Director of recreation, Glenn Arthur, as residents know, is instrumental in all large functions in this town, and with his guidance and knowledge we were able to co-ordinate this event.

To Jason Marshall for his leadership role in the com-memorative book and the 150th Facebook page, to our other members - Sandra Stott, Arden Robitaille and Betty Fevreau - for their vision and collaboration.

And, late last year we were fortunate enough as a commit-tee to win a job creation grant to afford us the opportunity to hire an administrative as-sistant - Natascha Smith - and she has been nothing short

then a gift from God during these last hectic months of our planning.

We need to extend great ap-preciation to all who helped shape the footprint of our fes-tival weekend.

Here is our fi rst round of thank yous in no particular order: the Legion, Lions Club, agricultural society, Chris Toner and the Optimist Club, Catholic Women’s League, A.C.T.S, Quilters Guild, Neil Farmer and ADHS, CFB Pet-awawa, the Artist Group, Ar-chives, Mile High Parachute Club, Toastmasters, Casey Corbin, Spirit of 69, Arnpri-or School of Dance, Jeanika Benoit, Gord Lapierre, Home Hardware, Janet Carlile, Al-listair Baird (canoe rides), Kirkman House, Madawaska Golf Club, parade participants, Stephanie Egan (emcee), Pat Grenier (town crier), Chief Okum and staff, Township of McNab-Braeside, Rural Roots, Fitzroy Harbour, Joan Headrick, Todd Collins, John Sybiraj, Friends of the Arn-prior District Museum (textile group), L’Arche Arnprior, Pri-or Players and the Christian Education Centre and The Greater Arnprior Chamber of Commerce.

And last but certainly not least, the many volunteers who helped in front and be-hind the scenes.

We also need to once again, acknowledge the fi nancial support of the Government of Canada through the Depart-ment of Canadian Heritage, the Building Communities through Arts and Heritage programs grant.

Then our other sponsors

AECL (Atom Energy of Can-ada Limited) and OPG (On-tario Power Generation) for their generous contributions, as well as the BIA and Stantec for their fi nancial support

And, of course, the Town of Arnprior. We were fortunate to have great media sponsor-ship - myFM 107.7 Arnprior, Chronicle-Guide EMC, Heri-tage Radio and TV Cogeco all helped us with advertising as way of sponsoring this event.

So as you can see it took many, many hands to create the experience that we had this past weekend. But it doesn’t end there, lastly, we need to thank - YOU!

All the efforts in the world can be taken, but if we don’t have you, the participants it would have been all for noth-ing.

We watched thousands of people mill through the park over the three days of cel-ebrations, and we are so very thankful that you joined us in this celebration.

It took more than a village ... it took a town. A solid com-munity effort, and I want to say I was honored and privi-leged to be part of that team and those two small words that we offer to you, at this time, are small but mighty thank you.

P.S. Many calls have al-ready come into town hall and the museum regarding 150th merchandise.

Please note that you can purchase the golf shirts, com-memorative books, pins, hats and thermal mugs at town hall, or you may visit the mu-seum for all the above men-tion items except golf shirts.

Activities, events for all ages, interests

Sincere thanks from 150th committee

Sweet and Sassy in Arnprior created this special 150th anniversary cake to mark the momentous occasion.

Habitat for Humanity eyes Arnprior project

EMC news - Habitat for Humanity is interested in building a home in Arnprior.

The organization’s National Capital Region unit is hosting an information night in town Wednesday, June 27.

People can learn more about Habitat for Humanity’s homeownership, volunteer and sponsorship opportunities at the St. John Chrysostom Parish Hall from 7 to 8 p.m.

National Capital Region Habitat for Humanity CEO Donna Hicks, president Jo-hannes Ziebarth, and board director Barry Burke, who lives in Arnprior, will attend the meeting to discuss the possibility of building in the

Arnprior area.Habitat for Humanity is

based on the belief that access to safe, decent and affordable housing is a basic human right that should be available to ev-eryone.

It mobilizes volunteers and community partners to build housing for people for whom homeownership would be a means to breaking out of a cycle of poverty.

While the organization is based on Christian values, it serves and works with people of all faiths and beliefs.

Habitat for Humanity has built several homes in Ottawa and recently fi nished one in Carleton Place.

EMC events - The Arnprior Farmers Market will hold a grand opening celebration at its new location at the curling club this Saturday, June 16.

Hit-and-run victim inspires pedestrian safety campaign

John [email protected]

EMC news – Colette Rigby pulled the hood-ie over her head to protect her from the wind and cold as she trudged down McNab Street near the Nylene plant in Arnprior last Feb. 13 on her nightly evening walk with her husband Keith.

That’s the last thing she remembers until she woke up in hospital.

Rigby was seriously injured when knocked to the ground when hit from behind by a ve-hicle about 7:45 p.m. in a hit-and-run case that shocked Arnprior.

The driver failed to stop, fl eeing the scene southbound on McNab Street.

Despite an ongoing police investigation and appeals to the public for tips, the culprit has not been arrested or turned himself in.

The only description police had to go on was that it was a smaller, older model red pick-up or similar sized vehicle that would have had damage to its front passenger side.

Keith briefl y ran after the vehicle, but quick-ly went back to attend to his stricken wife.

Collette, 54, was rushed to Arnprior hospi-tal by ambulance, then to Ottawa Hospital. She suffered blood clots on the brain, underwent brain surgery and lost the use of her left side for a time.

TOUCH AND GO

“It was touch and go (whether I’d live),” she said.

Four months later Collette is still unable to return to work. However, she is on the mend and mobile again, appreciative of all the com-munity support and encouragement she has received.

She and Keith were on hand at the Arnprior

Community Policing offi ce last Friday to par-ticipate in the launching of a pedestrian safety campaign that her plight has inspired.

Community Policing, the Arnprior OPP and the provincial Ministry of Transportation are working together on a joint project promoting pedestrian safety in the area.

The partners are distributing awareness pam-phlets and special fl ashing LED lights that can be attached to pedestrians’ clothing to enhance visibility in the dark.

Mountain Equipment Co-op provided the visibility lights for the campaign at a favour-able price.

OPP offi cers and Community Policing vol-unteers were out on force at the Arnprior 150 festivities handing out the lights and pam-phlets.

WALKER SAFETY PROMOTED

At the launch in the Community Policing offi ce at the Arnprior Mall, Arnprior OPP Sgt. Gary Dougherty explained that OPP Const. Colleen McGrath, with Colette’s experience fresh in her mind, had taken a lead role in the project.

She wrote a successful application for a grant to fund the pedestrian safety blitz in town, he said.

Collette’s hit-and-run is the latest in a long line of vehicle-pedestrian collisions in Arnprior over the past few years.

The number of incidents prompted Arnprior OPP to issue an appeal last year urging drivers and pedestrians to be more careful.

Dougherty said there is no reason that Col-lette should have been hit, as McNab is wide and well-lit.

Dougherty said the pedestrian project is especially relevant to Arnprior because there are so many active seniors in the area who enjoy walks, particularly in the evenings when visibility can be a problem.

The local popularity of walking was accentuated by the Heartwise walking group, which showed up in force for the launch.

“They know the importance of pedestrian safety,” noted Dougherty.

One of the walking group members, Lynn Zander, said that youth should be included in the pedestrian safety campaign as well.

Youthful horseplay along John Street as the stu-dents head to school can often result in kids being pushed onto the roadway, she said.

Those on foot should always be vigilant because “no matter who is in the right … the pedestrian never wins” in a crash with a vehicle, said Dougherty.

“I’m lucky to be alive,” Colette told the gathering. “It could have been a lot worse.”

The campaign urges both pedestrians and drivers to follow the rules of the road, said McGrath. Pedes-trians are safer if they stay on the sidewalks and use marked crosswalks, she noted.

DRIVERS: BE ALERT

As well, drivers need to be alert, particularly in high traffi c areas and in school zones when students are going to and from school.

Zander said she fi nds that the busy John-Mada-

waska intersection near Scotiabank is a dangerous one for pedestrians. Too many drivers turn without taking notice that someone is in the crosswalk, she added.

“Being always aware of what’s going on around you is very important,” said McGrath.

While this may sound like a given, too often driv-ers are distracted by cell phones, texting and other modern gadgets, she said.

Meanwhile, the search for the driver who ran into Colette continues.

The suspect vehicle was reported to be moving er-ratically on McNab Street prior to striking her.

Anyone with information is asked to contact the Arnprior OPP at either 613-623-3131 or 1-888-310-1122.

Pedestrian safety important in a town of walkers

Amountof payment,numberof usersup for debateContinued from front

Reid said provincially-mandated monitoring of such statistics has come a long way.

Library user lists are purged of the departed ev-ery two years. And if town-ship staff wants to audit the fi gures on site, that would be OK with him.

However, he maintains the Freedom of Informa-tion Act still plays a role.

And he wonders why McNab-Braeside doesn’t track users of Renfrew’s library, where the township pays $95.11 per household.

“It’s a bit of a double standard,” Reid said.

McNab-Braeside Mayor Mary Campbell isn’t happy with the few number of township representatives on the library board.

At a recent public meet-ing, she said they don’t have voting clout, mean-ing their positions are little more than that of liaisons.

Reid said they can vote, but that the township con-tributes just 10 per cent in funds.

“It’s kind of a ridiculous statement,” he said.

Young woman critically injured in rollover on Highway 417 TuesdayTheresa [email protected]

EMC news – Highway 417 east of Arnprior near Galetta Side Road was closed for several hours following a single-vehicle rollover early Tues-day morning.

The Ottawa Detachment of the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) re-port at approximately 1:16 a.m. June 12, a roll over collision occurred in-volving a single vehicle. There was only one person in the vehicle at the time of the incident.

The Ottawa Fire Serve emergency dispatch centre also received a report of a vehicle rolled over on Highway 417 around the same time as po-lice and due to the proximity to the boundary, the Arnprior Fire Depart-ment was dispatched to assist.

On arrival at the scene, fi re crews

used cribbage to stabilize the Mer-cedes SUV vehicle and jaws of life to free a lone 23-year-old female occupant. She has been identifi ed as Cathy Duong of Pembroke and was transported to Arnprior and District Memorial Hospital with life threat-ening injuries, OPP reported.

The westbound lanes of Highway 417 and the westbound exit around Kinburn Side Road were re-opened to traffi c around 9 a.m. Tuesday morning.

According to an OPP news release, the preliminary investigation has re-vealed Duong’s vehicle “swerved on the highway, which caused the driver to lose control and roll over.”

The collision is still under investi-gation and the OPP is asking anyone who may have information to call 613-270-9171.

Charges dismissed against Arnprior Legion Branch 174Derek [email protected]

EMC news – There has been a resolution to the un-usual case of a Royal Canadian Legion being charged for a private party growing out of control and spilling into the parking lot at its premises.

Three individuals at Arnprior Branch 174 were charged under the Liquor act on July 30, 2011 in rela-tion to an incident that took place March 26, 2011. The charges were dismissed last March 16 after one day in court.

Reeve Walter Stack was among those charged. He was not impressed with the ordeal, saying putting people who volunteer with an organization that helps war veterans in the situation where they face charges – simply because their signatures appear on the liquor licence – is unacceptable.

“I found the whole thing frustrating,” Stack said, who at the time of the incident was at home watching TV. “There could be a far better use of resources.”

He said involving two offi cers on the scene, a court clerk, crown prosecutors, a judge and many more people is a waste of taxpayers’ money. He added that

Arnprior pays about $2 million a year for OPP ser-vice.

However, he doesn’t link his role in the town’s re-sistance to signing a contract with the OPP with anger at the charges. The local offi cers have nothing to do with negotiations, he said.

Stack took a strong position ever since the charges fi rst arose. He vowed to not attend court, then was subpoenaed and spoke before the judge. He also fi red off a letter to the attorney general’s offi ce.

The assistant deputy attorney general wrote back, suggesting legionnaires might become exempt from some aspects of the legislation.

“I’ve reviewed your letter carefully and it is clear that the situation you describe caused considerable distress,” Mark Leach wrote.

“It’s not appropriate for the government or its of-fi cials to comment on specifi c legislation. I do note your request that the provincial law be reviewed. Ontario’s liquor legislation is reviewed regularly. As such, I will forward your concerns to the appropriate policy offi cials for their considerations the next time the statute is reviewed.”

Woman accosted near Robert Simpson ParkEMC news – Arnprior Ontario Provincial

Police (OPP) are looking for the occupants of a small red Ford pick-up truck after what appears to be an attempted abduction of a woman late Saturday evening.

Police report that on June 9 at about 11:35 p.m., offi cers responded to a complaint regard-ing a suspicious vehicle on Daniel Street North and Rock Lane near Robert Simpson Park.

Offi cers were told that at about 11 p.m. a woman was walking alone northbound on Dan-iel Street North when a small red Ford pick-up

pulled up to the sidewalk. The male driver said something to the wom-

an. The victim advised she didn’t hear him and stepped closer to his open passenger side window. The man said something, then lunged across the seat and grabbed onto the victim.

When the victim broke free and ran away, the man fl ed the area. The suspect is described as a white male, 45-50 years old, having a moustache and grey hair. He is described as wearing a blue/white hat and red plaid lumberjack style shirt. Call Arnprior OPP at 613-623-3131 with info.

Wasn’t that a party?

Arnpr ior did itself

proud on the weekend by throwing a 150 anniversary celebration that will be re-membered for years to come, at least until the 200th birth-day party.

The many organizers and volunteers who ensured we all had a good time while paying homage to our history should be proud of themselves. They did a great job.

Particularly gratifying were

the number of newcomers to town who took in the celebra-tion.

Who said the transplants from the city aren’t embrac-ing their new home?

Hopefully the show of community solidarity and re-newed pride in its history will give Arnprior an added con-fi dence to move forward and tackle the many diverse prob-lems that face the town.

Because now that the car-nival is over, it’s time to get serious for a while, summer holidays or not.

It doesn’t mean we don’t have more to celebrate. In this 150th year, the Arnprior Fair, the White Pine Festival, the world broomball champion-ship and the New Year’s Eve party should all be extra spe-cial and worth supporting.

But until those momentous events arrive, there’s work to be done.

An abbreviated recreation deal may be approved with McNab-Braeside, but the long-term future of the Nick Smith Centre needs a thor-ough review.

And there is still the library agreement to work out be-tween the two municipalities.

Arnprior has several ma-jor infrastructure decisions to make in the near future as the four-lane Highway 17 exten-sion continues to attract new developments to town.

The approval for a seniors housing development is a en-couraging start, but the town needs to continue to partner with the hospital and other health care organizations in town to ensure there are plen-ty of housing options for the

most vulnerable in our midst. The town has done an im-

pressive job in smartening up the downtown corner on Madawaska Street and now it’s time to move toward the river in its efforts to tie in the downtown with the waterfront and Robert Simpson Park.

Linked in will be decisions on how to proceed with the streetscape program to build on the inherent natural beauty of the area.

The town also has some major personnel decisions to make, with a new CAO and

treasurer to hire.The increased interest in

the CAO position this time, after a false start earlier in the year, is promising.

It seems some top adminis-trators want to come to Arn-prior after all.

And no wonder. The show of support for last weekend’s 150th festivities indicates that Arnprior has the right stuff to survive and thrive.

With strong, wise and de-cisive leadership and a great deal of hard work,

Arnprior will be able to ful-fi ll the bright future projected by the early visionaries who saw so much promise in the community where two mag-nifi cent rivers meet.

Editorial Policy

And here’s the rest of the storyTo the editor:I read with interest the ex-

cellent chronology about Arn-prior and the town’s 150th an-niversary.

While there was mention of the airport, it neglected to mention that this facility was constructed as part of the British Commonwealth Air Training Program, and in that role, was a ‘Flying Instructor School’.

Following the war, this fa-cility then became the ‘Emer-gency Measures College’. In that role, this excellent facil-ity saw the comings and go-ings of federal, provincial and municipal offi cials who came here to train in all facets of emergency measures manage-

ment.I attended three courses here

in the 1980s while a member of the Correctional Service of Canada based at that time in British Columbia, so I can at-test to its importance.

Mrs. Margaret Bahm of Arnprior was the senior ad-ministrator at the college and she made sure that all of us who attended courses there were well looked after.

I remember her with fond-ness.

Hers was a daunting task, making sure we got here okay, and at the end of our training course got home okay as well. It was a much bigger job than she would ever admit.

As to HMCS Arnprior, a

Castle Class Corvette. You correctly described her history as a commissioned ship of the Royal Canadian Navy in WWII. But after the end of the war, this proud ship had an-other life worth mentioning.

She was eventually sold to the Government of Uruguay and renamed ‘Montevideo’. She served in that country’s navy as a training vessel until 1975, thus her career in total naval service was 31 years.

My point is that Arnprior in name and stature had a few more wrinkles than your edi-tion covered, albeit your spe-cial edition was excellent in my view.

Thomas CharbonneauArnprior

Please bring back Cookie Monster and Ernie

To the editor:We moved here to Arnprior

two years ago thinking that country living would be better than city living, but much to my dismay, I found that trying to beautify our home was futile.

See, we made a beautiful fl ower garden in front of our house and we thought that add-ing lawn ornaments would im-prove the look of the garden.

These lawn ornaments were of Sesame Street characters,

which consisted of Big Bird, Cookie Monster, The Grouch, Ernie and Bert.

On Saturday, June 2, during the evening rain, somebody came along and decided to help themselves to two of our lawn ornaments (Cookie Monster and Ernie).

Unfortunately, these Sesame Street characters are no longer available; therefore we are un-able to replace them.

We would appreciate that

whoever took these ornaments would be so kind as to return them to us in the same manner and place that they were taken.

As these ornaments are of sentimental value not of mon-etary value to us, it would be greatly appreciated and would make us, once again, proud to live in Arnprior and be part of such a great community.

THIS WEEK’S POLL QUESTIONShould plastic bags be banned across the province and country?

A) Yes. It’s time society took risks to the environment more seriously.

B) No. The change would result in higher costs for customers.

C) Keep plastic bags for consumer pur-chase but increase the cost to 25 cents with the money going to local waste management programs.

D) Keep the status quo. Plastic bags are the most common way to collect in-house garbage and a ban would cause a burden on the average citizen.

PREVIOUS POLL SUMMARYShould the Renfrew farmers market have relocated out of the downtown?

A) The move to the fairgrounds is smart; it gives customers more room to park and circulate.

B) Move them back downtown. It’s more of a social meeting place there and attracts new customers.

C) Locate them at a mall parking lot, that’s where people shop.

D) Put the farmers market at a farm close to town, and let farm-ers sell produce at the gate.

To the editor:Having read in a recent is-

sue of the Chronicle-Guide about complaints from resi-dents regarding dog drop-pings, I had to comment about the “gift-wrapped” version of droppings.

Certain “responsible” resi-

dents use poop bags, which they then toss into trees along streets, walking paths and ravines. These look lovely hanging from tree branches, or rotting into creeks, which feed into the Madawaska River (or drinking water source).

Why are all our beautiful green spaces used as garbage dumps?

Aside from bags or drop-pings, there’s litter, trash, tires, building scraps, etc. every-where in town, even next to nice homes in treed areas. And

no one gets off their behinds to clean up.

The only No Dumping signs are found on McLean Avenue.

With so many unemployed persons sitting around, don’t you wonder why nobody is out cleaning up?

Is this what our people think of their town? No civic pride.

Not many tourists either; fi lthy towns don’t attract many visitors.

To the editor:Congratulations to Mayor

David Reid and council, the chair of the 150th committee Lynn Grinstead, Glenn Ar-thur, the volunteers, etc. on the excellent job of hosting the 150th anniversary celebra-tion for the Town of Arnprior.

The events, some of which were parades, business people

displays, then down to the park for a full list of events, Pioneer Village days, quilting, CFB military from Petawawa, strongman competitions, lum-berjack contests at the beach and the dance groups, were delightful.

There were many bands and historical renditions and tributes to Mac Beattie and too many others to name.

The many who came out enjoyed a great show and those that did not missed one.

With the lifting of the CPR

tracks this week in Arnprior, it makes us realize how fragile our heritage can be and the need to preserve that history we have.

Parents across On-tario are feeling u n p r e c e d e n t e d pressure to open

their wallets for school fund-raising as families shell out money for everything from crayons and Kleenex to com-puters and playground equip-ment.

“Today there’s a bigger burden than ever before,” says Progressive Conservative ed-ucation critic Lisa MacLeod. “Parents are paying over half a billion bucks out of their own pockets each year for essential learning tools.”Bake sales, car washes and pizza lunches generate tens of millions of dollars in fund-raising that is supposed to enrich – not replace – public funding. And “the amount of extra monies that are be-ing raised for school pur-poses is steadily increasing,” the Ontario Public School Boards’ Association says. “The trend is undeniable.”Parents do “have a role to play in actually augmenting the school budget,” says An-nie Kidder, executive direc-tor of People for Education, a parent-led advocacy group. But she believes the education system is taking advantage of parents’ willingness and ability to be involved, assum-ing they will always be there to put in that extra time and money.

Many parents agree.School boards know parents will fundraise, says Oshawa dad Steve Rockbrune, who believes parents will work hard to give their kids the best they can provide. “That’s why they put the squeeze on us.”Rockbrune was surprised when his daughter, who at-tends Harmony Public School, came home at the start of the year with a note requesting donations of Kleenex and glue, basic classroom staples.

Parents say drumming up dollars isn’t the most popular task.

LOTS OF WORK

“Nobody really ever wants to take on the job of fundrais-ing because it’s a lot of work,” says Catherine Scott, fund-raising committee co-chair at Roch Carrier Elementary School in Ottawa.

“And yet we need class-room resources; we need new technology; we need to keep our school grounds up; spend money on paint for hopscotch and four square in the play-

ground – and there’s no mon-ey in the school budget for those things.”

As of March, Ottawa’s Broadview Public School had raised more than $116,000 through an e-waste drop-off, magazine fundraiser, letter drive, movie night, and pizza and sub lunches for a com-plete yard renewal. The previ-ous school council set aside $30,000 and the school re-ceived a number of corporate donations, including three $10,000 contributions.

With a goal of $150,000, the school council hopes to purchase two new play struc-tures to replace the current unsafe playground and create an outdoor learning classroom for the school of more than 800 students.

Many parents say they are feeling the pinch with schools continually asking for more

money.It can seem endless, says

Greg Weiler, a father of two at the primary level and local president for the Elementary Teachers’ Federation of On-tario (ETFO) in Waterloo.

“I can’t think of a week where there isn’t some fundraising initiative go-ing on. They are constant and frequent,” Weiler says. “It puts an unrealistic ex-pectation on parents and family and the community.”NDP education critic Pe-ter Tabuns believes the government relies on parents to fundraise.“You almost think they qui-etly approve. This is a way of reducing the pressure on them for proper funding of education. Leave it to the par-ents. The parents will raise the money and won’t squawk about the fact that their school isn’t getting enough. Life goes on. But it means a lot of chil-dren get shortchanged.”

The ETFO says school fundraising lets the provincial government “shirk” its re-sponsibility to properly fund schools and puts pressure on everyone in the system.

“The funds have to come from somewhere,” says Dur-ham ETFO local president Gerard O’Neill. “People have to go out and raise them.”O’Neill says fi lling this fund-ing gap often comes down to teachers, many of whom end up paying for essential class-room items, such as pencils and paper, out of their own pocket.

NEW WAYS

Some manage the entire fundraising procedure, which takes time away from their Number 1 priority – teaching.School councils are constant-ly fi nding new ways to raise money.

At Terry Fox Public School in Ajax, school community council chair Sandra Fletcher has become familiar but not quite comfortable with so-liciting friends and family.“The SCC relies on parents and grandparents and sisters and uncles and cousins,” she says.This has been the case since the school opened its doors 10 years ago. The gym didn’t have a sound system and the library didn’t have enough books. After years of fund-raising to add these items, Fletcher said she’s found par-ents have reached fundraising fatigue.

“I actually think there’s a lot of pressure on the parents, and we, in the last four or fi ve years, have tried consciously not to put that pressure on the parents,” she says, add-ing a dance-a-thon and pizza lunches make up most of the fundraising.

The school council of St. Patrick’s Catholic High School in Ottawa doesn’t do any fundraising for the school. Instead, it lets the students de-cide how to raise funds and how to use the money.

“It’s hard to get volunteers, so it would fall on a few peo-ple’s shoulders,” says Joanne MacEwan, chair of the school council and co-chair of the Catholic School Parents’ As-sociation.

Leaving it up to the stu-dents teaches them responsi-bility and keeps parents from burning out, MacEwan says. But there is a limit, she adds.

“Sometimes it can be too much. We caution all our school councils – make sure you go to your community and make sure that you’re getting a feel for how they’re feeling about fundraising.”

However, not everyone agrees that the problem is a funding shortfall. Joe Allin,

chair of the Durham District School Board, believes cur-rent government funding is suffi cient and that fundrais-ing is a long-standing practice that will take place no matter what.

“I’m not convinced it’s associated with need,” Allin says. “That isn’t to say there aren’t needs. I’d say this ac-tivity would go on regardless of the level of funding that comes into the schools.”

SENSE OF CONNECTION

Fundraising is a way for parents to be active and feel like they’re contributing to their child’s school, says Kid-der, of People for Education. “I think it’s a really nice, understandable way to be in-volved in our kids’ school.”

The types of fundraisers being held, the amounts raised and the items bought differ across the province:

• In Woodbridge, St. Clare Catholic School, located in a well-to-do neighbourhood, spent funds on school im-provements, arts enrichment, security cameras and healthy-living initiatives such as yoga

in recent years, according to a school council letter to the community.

“Fundraising is so impor-tant to our school,” said the school council. “Through it, our children are able to access many enhanced resources and programs that only serve to enrich their educational expe-rience at school.”

• Rosebank Road Public School in Pickering purchased 11 fans for the school at a cost of $497.08 in 2010-11.

• At Holy Cross Catholic School in the Dufferin-Peel Catholic board, the council spent $800 on fans for a por-table.

There’s no cut-and-dried answer to the pitfalls of fund-raising. Sheila Perry spent 30 years working in the education sector in a variety of roles, including principal, teacher, educator, consultant and ad-ministrator. With a broad per-spective on fundraising from within the Ottawa-Carleton District School Board, she says the issue of private dol-lars funding public education remains a dilemma.

“That’s the key, it’s a pub-lic system,” says Perry, who

is now retired. “The key is to offer things across the board, an equal opportunity as much as you can. The dilemma be-comes when you just can’t or the price is too prohibitive. That’s where you get into the fundraising.”

Muddying the issue further is determining the must-have items. For example, the Min-istry of Education doesn’t consider technology an essen-tial item for schools. In fact, it slashed the budget for that line item by $25 million for the 2011-12 school year.

In turn, the Ministry’s guidelines deem it acceptable for schools to acquire technol-ogy with fundraised dollars.

But some in the education sector believe technology is indeed a necessity.

“We can’t go to our parent councils or school councils and keep asking for money for what could arguably be described as a 21st-century learning tool in public edu-cation,” says Catherine Fife, president of Ontario Public School Boards’ Association. “So let’s fi nd creative ways to address that funding shortfall and not go to fundraising.”

Jason Scott hefts electronic waste into a dumpster. More schools are turning to fund-raisers where parents don’t have to spend any money as a way to combat fundraising fatigue. For an e-waste drop off , schools receive $185 per tonne.

“(Fundraising initiatives) are constant and frequent. It puts an unrealistic expectation on parents and family and the community.”GREG WEILER

Renfrew County prevents strikers from addressing council

Derek [email protected]

EMC news – Vehicles progressed through a picket line with little delay before May’s Renfrew County council meeting. But when it comes to seeing an end to the month-long strike, there is little progress to report.

The 22 Ontario Works employees in Ren-frew County have been on strike since May 10. They picketed near the county building’s park-ing lot in Pembroke in the lead-up to the May 30 meeting, after they were denied the right to speak before council.

Canadian Union of Public Employees (CUPE) Ontario president Fred Hahn said the group was there all week, “waiting to be called back to the table” by the county’s negotiating team.

Key for Hahn is benefi ts. He said county ne-gotiators want to remove benefi ts such as 100 per cent dental coverage, and long- and short-term disability. They don’t mind giving the coverage to the county’s other 700 employees, Hahn said, but for some reason the 22 women working for Ontario Works are being treated differently.

He also said council voted itself a three-per-cent raise in January, but expect employees to suffer austerity measures.

“They don’t deserve any less than any other employee in this county,” Hahn said.

At one point during the morning, some em-

ployees said Warden Bob Sweet was swept through the picket in a police escort. They said it was a poor use of tax dollars.

However, Sweet was asked about it mo-ments later. He pointed at his car in the parking lot and said he was at work before the picketers arrived.

Ghyslaine Turgeon, president of CUPE lo-cal 4989, was among those waving union fl ags and shouting slogans outside the county head-quarters.

She maintains morale among the strikers remains positive, but that it’s time the county returns to the negotiation table.

“Ontario Works employees want to get back to providing employment services and income supports to assist vulnerable members of our community,” she said.

Meanwhile, CUPE National President Paul Moist joined the County workers on the picket line Monday to emphasize his union’s support for the workers.

“We are thrilled to have the support of our national union,” said Turgeon. “Knowing that all of CUPE is with us in this fi ght really means a lot.”

The striking employees deliver social assis-tance to about 1,100 clients monthly. They fo-cus on helping clients – such as women who’ve fl ed domestic violence - achieve fi nancial inde-pendence.

During the strike the county has temporarily

closed the Killaloe and Arnprior offi ces, redi-recting clients to the Pembroke and Renfrew Ontario Works locations.

The Pembroke offi ce is accessible to clients from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., Monday to Friday. The Renfrew offi ce is accessible to clients Tuesday

and Thursday from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m.The county has assured residents that de-

spite the labour disruption, Ontario Works will continue to provide emergency social services to the less fortunate and people who are receiv-ing benefi ts will continue to receive them.

Photo by Derek DunnMany of the 22 Ontario Works employees picket outside the Renfrew County council building on May 30. They asked to speak to council - like many other groups have done in the past, to get their side across - but were denied. They are concerned that elected offi cials are only hearing from the county’s negotiating team, made up of county man-agement, and not getting a clear picture of what has gone wrong in negotiations and what employees want.

Haley workers back on the jobPeter [email protected]

EMC news – Workers at Haley Industries are back to work after negotiating a new col-lective agreement and resolving their fi ve-week strike.

Following talks in early May a ratifi cation agreement was reached. The union recom-mended a vote to accept the company’s latest offer, said Steelworkers Eastern Ontario staff

representative David Lipton.“This was tough bargaining, but in the end

we were able to obtain a fair collective agree-ment,” said Mike Byers, president of United Steelworkers (USW) Local 4820. “By stick-ing together and supporting our union, our members have achieved solid improvements in working conditions.”

Byers said the workers set up picket lines April 3 after rejecting a sub-standard company

offer that included an hourly wage increase of only 15 cents over three years.

The new, three-year collective agreement, ratifi ed by union members, will give about 400 workers a total increase of 82 cents an hour.

Other gains in the new contract include a new long-term-disability plan, improved health-care benefi ts and conversion of the former pension plan to the Steelworkers Pen-sion Plan. The Steelworkers Pension Plan is a multi-employer, union-administered plan that will provide a greater pension for workers and more fi nancial stability for the employer.

The new agreement was negotiated with the

assistance of provincial mediator Tony Harte. The Haley Industries workers produce mag-

nesium and aluminum castings for the aero-space industry. The Steelworkers union has represented workers at the plant for 60 years.

The historic plant originally was set up with support from the federal government to help develop Canada’s aerospace industry. In the 1950s the plant was one of the suppliers to the Avro Arrow project.

The plant, located on Magnesium Road in Whitewater Region, has been modernized over the years, and manufactures airplane parts for Magellan Aerospace.

BYGONE DAYS AND McNAB DAYSDressed in period costume, re-enactors relive the days when voyageurs ruled the water. The group joined others who sang songs about the Ottawa River and heritage, and still others who hosted media members during a promo-tion of the upcoming McNab Days in Bristol Bay, Que. The second annual McNab Days is kicks off on the June 22-24 weekend with the Calling of the Clans, Riverdrive, offi cial opening of the Braeside Beach and Sunday Stetch/Tartan Run. Other McNab Days events in the following week in-clude a horseshoes tournament in Pinegrove, a garden tour in Burnstown, a heritage trail celebration and Canada Day festivities in Braeside.

Burnstown holding house, garden tour for McNab Days

EMC events - Are you interested in history or homes or gar-dens?

Then you will not want to miss the Burnstown Heritage House and Garden Tour on Saturday, June 30. The tours run from 12:30 p.m. to 5 p.m.

As part of McNab Days, this is the fi rst tour of this type in the Burnstown area and takes in seven locations in and around the village.

The four gardens range from a small garden wrapping around the house, to two stunning well-known private gardens. The four heritage homes were all built prior to the 1860s. The youngest building is actually the Burnstown United Church, which was built in 1899.

The ticket for the afternoon roaming is also a guidebook, providing a map and a short description of each location. The order of viewing is up to participants – start and fi nish any-where along the route.

The tour also includes a strawberry social held at the church in Burnstown.

There are two locations in Burnstown, besides the church. One is the heritage home of Richard Gill and Cheryl Babi-neau – this was once the earliest tavern in Burnstown. Gill, a renowned artist, has added to the history by creating Burn-stown’s history in clay relief around his fi replace. The tour also includes a visit to his Fog Run Studio and, if you have the time, walk their labyrinth.

The second location in Burnstown was also a very early “stopping place” to lodge the many log drivers and shantymen as they passed through. If only walls could talk! The squared-log home is the home of Nancy and Ted Young, with the tour also including Nancy’s interesting gardens.

Heading towards White Lake is the farm of Joan and Ross

Headrick. There you can visit a log cabin from the early 1800s, lovingly furnished to transport you back to that era.

The tour also includes the owner’s home and surrounding gardens. Joan will be there in period costume and perhaps pre-paring something in Lucifer, a cob oven created from straw, sand and clay.

Nearby is the stone heritage home of Tim and Deborah Pol-lard. The stone house dates back to the mid-1800s and was called Saxevilla by the Richardson family in the 1900s. Today, it is continuing to undergo restoration.

The gardens of Sandy and Steve Hanson near White Lake are outstanding, with more than 500 varieties of hosta. Dramatic, colourful foliage is found throughout the gardens, interspersed with carefully chosen perennials and whimsical touches.

Another exceptional garden and landscape is that of Mar-lene Schaly. Even the outhouse is impressive. Schaly will be there in Victorian costume and tea will be served in her quaint Tea House.

While at the Burnstown United Church for the strawberry social, take time to view the silent auction. One of the items being auctioned is a local hand-made quilt.

The Burnstown Heritage House and Garden Tour tickets cost $25, which includes the strawberry social. The tour runs rain or shine, with all proceeds being directed to the Burn-stown United Church. Sorry, but children under 12 and pets will not be permitted.

Tickets can be picked up at the Neat Coffee Shop in Burn-stown, Antrim Truck Stop in Arnprior, or Calabogie Lodge in Calabogie. Tickets can also be e-mailed or mailed by contact-ing Irene at [email protected] or 613-432-6987. For further information, you can also phone 613-433-3389 or search for the event ‘Burnstown’ on Facebook.

Photo by Theresa FritzArnprior and District Museum curator Janet Carlile talks with individuals from Algonquin Col-lege’s Applied Museum Studies program last Friday afternoon at the museum. Carlile handed over a map of the Town of Arnprior from 1862 that was in terrible condition and they were able to restore it in time for it to be displayed as part of the town’s 150th anniversary celebrations over the weekend. Pictured from left are Carlile, professor Terry Quintan, Kyle Huth and Emilie Gamelin. The map will also be on display during the museum’s offi cial opening this Saturday.

EMC events – The Arnprior and District Muse-um will have the contents of the 125th anniversary time capsule and two early maps of the area on display when it offi cially opens for the season this Saturday, June 16.

The public is welcome to attend an opening cel-ebration at 2 p.m. at the museum to see a number of its new artifacts that will be on display for the summer season.

Arnprior resident Carol Ruddy, who works as a heritage expert for the City of Ottawa, will give a short talk on Arnprior architecture. Ruddy was instrumental in having Arnprior’s downtown des-ignated as a heritage area.

Museum curator Janet Carlile said she is de-lighted the two maps will be ready for display.

One is Daniel McLachlin’s personal map of the area in 1862. “It showed Arnprior as he saw it,” Carlile said. McLachlin is seen as the founder of Arnprior, having bought land to start the village in 1851.

The other, dated 1824, is one of the earliest maps of McNab. It also includes Arnprior.

“They are both early maps from the formative years of both places,” said Carlile. “We’re thrilled to have them in our permanent collection.”

People visiting the museum can also see dis-plays of items included in the town’s 125th anni-

versary capsule, opened as part of the 150th fes-tivities.

The museum has several new artifacts for dis-play, including costumes and clothing from as far back as 1860.

The museum also has new space for displays with the relocation of the 1928 fi re truck to the Arnprior Fire Trucks building, where it is being restored in a joint museum-Arnprior Fire Depart-ment-company venture.

Starting June 16, the museum will be open from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Saturday for the rest of the summer.

CHILDREN’S PROGRAM

The museum’s summer children’s program will begin July 4. Some of the programs, which run each Wednesday and Friday from 1 to 3 p.m. through July and August, are already almost full up. For more information, the museum can be reached 613-623-4902 or by visiting www.arnpri-ormuseum.org or its Facebook page.

Slots still open for June blood clinic

EMC lifestyle – Arnprior woman Candace Galkowski is sacrifi cing her hair for a good cause.

Galkowski will have her head shaved Tues-day, June 19 to raise money for cancer research and as an expression of support for her aunt Emilia Kilbride (Meo), who is currently bat-tling cancer.

“She’s the most wonderful woman ever. I have looked up to her for my whole life,” said

Galkowski. “I’m just happy to do anything I can to make it a little easier for her.”

Galkowski says she is hoping to inspire the community to donate to a good cause.

As of last Friday, Galkowski had raised $550, with donations continuing to be received.

Her hair appointment is set for the Beauty Boutique and Day Spa at 4:45 p.m.

To donate, contact Galkowski by email at [email protected].

Arnpriorite plans hair-razing fundraiser

EMC news - Canadian Blood Services is thanking all donors in Arnprior who have made an appointment at next week’s blood donor clinic. “We would encourage every-one to honour those appoint-ments as we know that last-minute cancellations some-times account for a signifi cant

loss of potential collections at our clinics,” said donor ser-vices community development co-ordinator Jennifer Heale.As of Monday, there were still 20 appointment slots available for the June 20 clinic at the Nick Smith Centre. “We need to book these slots in order for this clinic to be successful,”

said Heale.Donors can book online at

www.blood.ca or at the national call centre at 1-888-2-donate. The clinic will run from 1:30 to 4 p.m. and 5 to 8:30 p.m.

“Thank you all for helping us to collect blood and save lives during the challenging summer months,” said Heale.

The staff at Miliken Landscaping in McNab-Braeside make a generous donation to the Digital Mammography Campaign. The money comes from a plant fundraiser over the Mother’s Day Weekend. From left are Jason Diotte, Nichole Riopelle, Katie Shannon, Janyne Milliken, RaeAnn Laderoute, John Milliken, Karen Smith, Lorrayne Milliken, Shellie McDiarmid and Jill Peever.

Stores warned about Ukash fraud EMC news – Renfrew OPP offi cers are

investigating after a local convenience store was defrauded by someone claim-ing to work for a company called Ukash.

Ukash is an international cash payment method for those who wish to shop, pay or play on the Internet but either don’t have a bank account/credit card or fear online scams. Ukash is electronic money. It enables people to exchange physical money for a voucher code that represents electronic money of the same value. The money then can be used on the Internet.

On May 31 a local store employee re-ceived a call from a man claiming to work for the company that provided the Ukash machine (Now Prepay) and needed to update it. He had the employee print off several Ukash receipts and provide him with the secure ID number printed on the tickets. He phoned again the next day and did the same thing.

The employee became suspicious and called Ukash. Ukash confi rmed the ma-chine was working properly, that none of their employees made the phone call and that the vouchers printed off had already been spent.

The fraud was then reported to the police and to the Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre. Retailers using Ukash machines should be aware of this fraud, warn po-lice.

TRUCK SAFETY BLITZ

Beginning today (Thursday) at 6 a.m., the OPP are participating in Operation Corridor, a 24-hour province-wide com-mercial motor vehicle road safety initia-tive. The focus will be on enforcement and education through high visibility pa-trols on major highways, including High-way 17. Addressing commercial vehicle driver behaviour is the focus of Operation Corridor, given the increased potential for serious injury and death should an in-cident occur.

DOMESTIC DISPUTES

During the past two weeks, Renfrew OPP offi cers investigated 16 domestic disputes. Police have charged six men in relation to the incidents.

One was charged with forcible confi ne-

ment; another with choking, assault with a weapon, assault and uttering threats; another with choking, assault and utter-ing threats; one with assault and forcible confi nement; one with two counts of as-sault; and another with choking and do-mestic mischief.

FRAUD WARNING

OPP have received several calls re-cently from people being solicited by fraudsters. One common pitch is the ser-vice scam, where someone claiming to be from a reputable company calls soliciting for service. The most common example is the Microsoft scam, whereby a person claiming to work for the company calls to remotely remove a virus from your computer.

If you provide your credit card num-ber to the individual it will be compro-mised, warn police. Consumers need to be vigilant to whom they provide person-al information.

“Deal with local companies. Educate yourself on the many types of frauds and scams at the www.antifraudcentre.ca.”

Furnishing the new home will be no problem at all because the package also in-cludes $50,000 cash, a $25,000 gift card from La-Z-Boy Furni-ture Galleries, $10,000 in appliances from Corbeil, and a $5,000 Future Shop gift card. The second grand prize winner will also have the option of taking $250,000 cash.

There are over 1,500 other prizes to be won including 300 mini vacations and over $180,000 worth of gift cards from Fu-ture Shop, Canadian Tire, Rideau Centre and Esso.

“Ticket sales have been slower than expected and with less than 70 per cent of our tickets sold, people’s chances to win have never been better. We hope that this fact combined with the upcoming fi nal deadline will encourage more people to buy and help us get to the level of ticket sales that will truly make a difference for the patients at The Ottawa Hospital and CHEO,” said Kevin Keohane, COO of the CHEO Foundation.

Proceeds from the lottery will stay right here in Ottawa and help The Ottawa Hospital and CHEO purchase much needed equipment, and conduct life saving research so they can better serve the thousands of patients they treat each and every week.

Tickets are $100 each or three for $250 and can be ordered by phone at (613) 730- I-WIN (4946) or 1-877-730-4946 or online at www.weallwin.ca. Tickets can also be ordered at any major bank or at the Guildcrest Grand Prize Cottage in the La-Z-Boy Furniture Galleries parking lot at Hunt Club and Merivale.

FREE Drinking Water Lead Testing For Arnprior Residents

Regulations under the provincial Safe Drinking Water Act require the Town of Arnprior to conduct lead sampling of drinking water at a minimum of 40 residential and 4 non-residential locations connected to the Town of Arnprior’s drinking water distribution system.

Sampling will commence June 15, 2012 and is scheduled to continue until October 15, 2012. If you suspect that you have lead piping or lead solder joints and/or wish to have your water tested for lead, please contact:

The sampling program will be ongoing, and sampling sites will be prioritized in accordance with the likelihood of lead services. There is no cost to the home or business owner for sampling and the results will be kept confidential. Residents that have already participated in previous sampling rounds can participate again!

Please be advised that the Town of Arnprior does not send sales representatives door-to-door. Should someone approach you to conduct a free drinking water test, this could be a tactic to sell a water treatment system. While selling water treatment systems is not a crime, false identification/impersonation and improper testing of drinking water can be.

For any further questions on this sampling program please contact Abby Barclay at the above number or e-mail address, or visit the Town of Arnprior website.

Thank you for your consideration,

The Corporation of the Town of Arnprior

Brothers earn medals at provincial karate tournament

EMC sports – Two Arnprior School of Ka-rate students competed at the CJKF Ontario Provincial Tournament in Scarborough on May 27, returning home with medals - and bragging rights.

Eric Crawford competed in the 9-and-under boys green/purple belt category and won gold in kata (forms) and silver in kumite (fi ghting).

His older brother, Paul Crawford, competed in the 10-13 boys green/purple belts category and won silver in kumite.

More than 260 participants from almost 20 schools across the province participated in the tournament. The Arnprior club promises it will have more competitors at the tournament next year.

When asked about their experience, the boys said it was challenging and lots of fun. It was a great experience and I would defi nitely do it again, said Paul.

“Overall it was a great experience and they look forward to competing again next year ... and maybe later this year at the nationals,” said Marie-Hélène, mother of the two boys.

She and husband, Mark, are also students and love the training.

They noted the standards at the tournament

were very high and it was nice to be able to compare their sons’ progress with others their age and from other parts of the province.

“We really appreciate everything Sensei Garth and Sempei France do for us and the boys,” Mark said. “It was a very rewarding ex-perience for all.”

Sensei Garth Templeman and Sempei France Guillemette congratulated the two boys on their achievements.

“We’re extremely proud of what these stu-dents have accomplished,” said Sensei Garth. “Actually we’re proud of all our students.

“We train hard in Ottawa under Sensei Saeki, who is seventh degree and chief instructor for the Canada JKA Karate Federation. To be able to learn from him is a great honor and we’re happy to be able to pass that on to our students here. It’s humbling to think we’re training people here in Arnprior that can compete at a provincial and national level.”

The Arnprior School of Karate is a proud member of the worldwide Japanese Karate As-sociation (JKA) and is located at 15 Galvin St. (upstairs in the Curling Club).

For more information, email [email protected] or call 613-623-6767.

The ADHS student, who won three golds at the Eastern Ontario track championships and was a part of the gold-medal-winning 4x100 junior re-lay team, fi nished second at the East Regionals in the 300-metre hurdles, edged out by Matthew Bedard of Kemptville. Bedard fi nished at 39.86 seconds, with Toman at 39.98.

In the Ontario championships, June 7-9 in Brockville, Toman won his heat in 40.61 seconds.

In the fi nal, he took home gold with a time of 39.84, which was 13/100th of a second ahead of his nearest rival. The athlete Toman beat out, from Greenwood College, a private school in Toronto, had won the 100-metre sprint hurdles the day before.

Above, Buck Whalley coasts in for a gentle albeit wet landing off the beach at Robert Simpson Park. “It was a lot of fun,” said Whalley, who has about 5,000 jumps under his belt. He and Trevor Fitzpatrick jumped from about 25,000 feet and both reported conditions were ideal.

I miss being your mom so very much,Sometimes, I’ll let myself imagine… Hoping against hope, daring to dreamThat I’ll catch a glimpse of you again

– alive, vibrant, throwing back your head as you laughEyes sparkling, smiling, playful,

Loving life, living life, as only you could.

Where are you?Are you really that quiet voice in my heart?

Are you the gentle warmth of a friend’s embrace?Are you the shoulder where I rest my head while I cry?

Are you the tears of others’, falling as freely as my own as we talk , laugh and share memories of you?

This need to still be “mom” to you and Katie is the driving force within me that keeps me going each day,

Stronger than hunger, more intense than pain – this need to protect and care for you

even after you’re “gone”…

I sit here and talk to you, Silently,“Heart to heart”

Asking you if you still love me, need me, hear me, see me, know me, remember me...Cutting this fl ower, snipping that one, gardening “together”, like we used to…

Lighting your candles, so you won’t be afraid of the dark…

Dearest Sarah,

... And then,I hear your soft voice,I see your sweet face,

In my “hearts eye” I see you smile,And you tell me I’ll always be your mom,

That we’ll always be connected - “heart to heart”.

And I become, once again, what I’ve always been, loved being

- will always be...... Katie and Sarah’s mom

With all my love, “mommy”

A White Dove Reunites The sun is warm

The sky is crystal clear blue A White Dove reunites

With her Soul Mate she once knew

Its been a long time Since Sophie and Andre had been together

They shared a Family of four babies They created many memories to last forever

A Celebration of their Golden Years Was held in August of 2005

Shared with many Families and Friends Was a party of Celebration of their lives

The next few years of sickness you had suffered Until that Peaceful day Of June 14th, 2008

Now four years ago Mom Was when you had a Peaceful and Heavenly Journey

to take

Dad knew exactly what you felt With your discomfort and your pain

For on October 21st, 2011, his finally had ended Then Mom, you got to meet your Soul Mate again

Dad had joined you In flight throughout the crystal blue sky

Together you both have flown Watching over us with your guarding eyes

Together you both could see How grown up your (Great) Grandchildren have grown

We know how proud you both must feel Of your three children living in their homes

We know and feel That it was a long time over due

For Baby Andre to finally be with his parents The both of you

We Thank you both For everything that you have done

For when we see three doves fly together We know its you Mom, Dad and Baby Andre flying

in the warm sun

Someday we will be together again As we become a White Dove too

We can watch over our Love ones Flying together, me and you.

They say there is a reason,They say that time will heal,But neither time nor reason,Will change the way I feel.For no one knows the heartache,That lies behind our smiles,No one knows how many times,We have broken down and cried.We want to tell you something,So there won’t be any doubt.You’re so wonderful to think of,But so hard to be without.

Until we meet again.Sadly missed by cherished wife Florence and family

Chef spices up the Ottawa Valley with global dishes

Leading up to the Ottawa Valley’s fi rst Diversity Festival July 7 in Ren-frew, organizers invite you to meet some of the many diverse individuals who make up our unique and won-derful community.

Just like the myriad spices in one of Roopesh Kakkat’s traditional In-dian dishes, many diverse individu-als come together to form one com-munity.

Kakkat, executive chef and food and beverage director at Four Con-tinents in the Best Western Renfrew, came to Canada in September 2010.

Born and raised in India, he has received a warm welcome in Ren-frew and fi nds the people friendly and the land beautiful.

And he has lots with which to compare it.

“I have visited at least 30 different countries,” said the 29-year-old.

After his formal chef training in India, he spent more than three years honing his skills working for a cruise

line.“I thought ‘I’ll get to see the

world,’” he said. And that’s exactly what he did.

Among his favourite places are Singapore, Dubai and Germany.

The role involved creating dishes from the different countries the cru-sises visited and whether it be French or Italian or

Biriyani is one of the best

dishes, in my opinion. It

has 18 diff erent spices

and is one of my most

favourite.ROOPESH KAKKAT

Before coming to Renfrew, Kak-kat worked for Best Western Ganan-oque.

The Best Western and Kakkat wanted to offer a little more than the standard burgers, steaks and pizzas

found in so many restaurants and so the idea of Four Continents was born.

The menu offers a taste of tradi-tional dishes from across the globe and the menu changes regularly to keep it fresh and meet demands.

And what culinary Canadian treats has Kakkat discovered?

“I love a good beer and barbecue,” said Kakkat.

Participating in Renfrew’s recent Hog Wild Porkfest was great, he said, and gave him an opportunity to learn about different smoking and barbecuing techniques new to him.

Kakkat and Four Continents are thrilled to be involved in the Diver-sity Festival, as a sponsor and par-ticipants with a selection of dishes.

Butter chicken and biriyani will be among the Indian fare on offer.

“Biriyani is one of the best dishes, in my opinion,” said Kakkat. “It has 18 different spices and is one of my most favourite,” he said.

“I’m a person who loves food,”

said Kakkat. “I like everything, I try everything.”

His passion guides him in the

kitchen and there is rarely a need to measure ingredients.

“It’s an art,” he said.He learned to cook by his moth-

er’s side, as a child, and something she said always comes back to him.

“It’s not the sugar and salt, it’s the love and passion.”

And part of the whole experience involves seeing people enjoying his creations and even learning how to make them better.

“I love coming out and meeting with the people,” he said. “I love to see when people are happy.”

FESTIVAL

The Festival kicks off Friday, July 6, with Dragon’s Breath, a theatri-cal performance at 7 p.m. at Trinity-St. Andrew’s United Church and the festival is Saturday, July 7, 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., at Renfrew’s Low Square.

Dragon’s Breath closes the event with another showing 4-6 p.m.

Dragon’s Breath premieres June 30 at 7 p.m. in Almonte at the Old Town Hall Auditorium.

Well, you do.

You (yes, you!) can fi ght cancer by becoming a volunteer with the Canadian Cancer Society.

All you need to do is spend three hours selling daffodils or canvassing door to door, and you’ll be helping us fund research to help more Canadians survive cancer. And that’s a powerful thing.

Three hours for you, a lifetime to a cancer survivor.

To volunteer, visit cancer.ca/volunteerpower or contact your local Canadian Cancer Society offi ce.

Three years ago, Alex was diagnosed with a neurological degenerative disorder that saw him go from playing soccer to being in a wheelchair. Yet this has not broken his amazing spirit.

Connor HaynesA proud member of the Dream Team, Connor brings a lot of enthusiasm to his role on the squad. A huge Senators fan, he loves when the Senators are on TV. As well as watching hockey, he also enjoys the Snoezelen Room at Roger’s House which provides many forms of sensory stimulation as a means of therapy.

She’s defi nitely going to be a fan favourite with our Francophone supporters as she primarily speaks French at home.

Jaxon Elliott-SprysaJaxon is a big sports and movie fan. When he’s not working out with the Dream Team, he’s usually playing Wii sports like baseball and bowling, or chilling with a good Disney movie.

At 8½, Jaxon has proven that he’s a fi ghter. He was born premature and before he was 4, he’d spent over a year in hospital.

Even though he requires assistance in all daily activities his thirst and love for life is abundant. His relationship with Roger’s House only started in May 2011 but both he and his family really benefi t from the support.

Lily BeaupreTwo and a half year old Lily brings a real competitive edge to her line on the team. Although she was crawling up until just before her second birthday, she is no longer able. Her parents use Roger’s House for respite which is able to provide the same around the clock medical attention they provide, and still in a home-like setting.

Join us at this year’s event.

Amanda CaceresAt seven years old, Amanda is one of our seasoned veterans and brings experience to the young squad. She visits Roger’s House about every two months, especially in the spring and summer.

‘150 Years of Cooking in the Ottawa Valley and Beyond’

Theresa [email protected]

EMC news – Recipes are more than just roadmaps to great food. In the case of a new and locally-based cookbook, the recipes trig-ger memories of times past and good times shared.

This was indeed the intent behind ‘150 Years of Cooking in the Ottawa Valley and Beyond’, a 172-page cookbook developed as a fund-raiser for Arnprior-Braeside-McNab Seniors At Home Program Inc. And months of work by all those who put it together was on display last Tuesday evening when the cookbook was unveiled.

A launch took place at Island View Suites and invited guests include the many people who submitted recipes, stories and even photos for the heartwarming cookbook.

“The cookbook was a project initiated by Liz to mark the 150th anniversary of the Town of Arnprior,” said agency board chair Sylvia Patterson.

While the cookbook’s launch last Tuesday evening at Island View Suites coincided with the town’s 150th anniversary, it is primarily a fundraiser for the Arnprior-Braeside-McNab Seniors at Home Program Inc. Guests at the book launch had the opportunity to test out some of the recipes found in the book as a number of appetizers and goodies were made especially for the event.

The book features appetizers and beverages, salads, dressings and soups, main dishes, bread and rolls, desserts, cookies, preserves and two special sections – baking with memories and forever special.

One of the oldest recipes in the book, Squir-rel Cake, was submitted by Isabell Murdoch. The recipe belonged to her late mother-in-law Sarah Jane Murdoch. According to the story that accompanies the recipe, it received its unique name either because of walnuts used to

make it or because Sarah Murdoch would al-ways pull off a small corner of the cake and test it for herself before serving it to guests.

Along with contributing recipes to the cook-book, Isabell Murdoch also celebrated her 94th birthday last Tuesday evening and was present-ed with a cake to mark the occasion.

The fundraising project was spearheaded by agency development coordinator Liz Wall and she said 1,000 copies of the book were printed. They cost $10 each.

A total of 200 cookbooks were ordered prior to the book launch last week. At that event, an-other 120 were sold.

“I had a great time putting this together,” said Wall, adding she enjoyed not only collect-ing recipes but learning the stories and histo-ries behind them.

One of her own submissions, Pumpkin Bread, is a recipe she inherited from the Wall family which dates back to 1882.

“Thank you everybody, from the bottom of my heart,” she said.

As mentioned, the cookbook is a fundrais-er for Arnprior-Braeside-McNab Seniors At Home Program Inc. and agency executive di-rector Dennis Harrington was thrilled with the response to the call for recipes that went out late last year.

Harrington said it was incredible to not only “see our community come together and con-tribute recipes” but to see the sponsorship from businesses as well.

“That you all of you for helping us with our fundraiser,” he said.

The book is dedicated to the late Henry Murdoch, the longest running associate mem-ber of the Arnprior-Braeside-McNab Seniors At Home Program Inc. He was associated with the agency from September 1980 until he re-tired in December 2011. The last 10 years, he served on the board of directors and as chair of

the transportation committeeMurdoch was also a local municipal offi cial

and served the Town of Arnprior and the Coun-ty of Renfrew. He passed away Dec. 30, 2011.

During her brief speech, Patterson spoke fondly of Murdoch and noted she was always “struck by his thinking” and how he always of-fered “a sober second thought” on issues. She noted she was also struck by his sense of hu-mour.

“Henry always had an open door policy,” she said. “Henry brought a wealth of experi-ence (to the agency) by the various positions he has held.”

Patterson noted both she and Harrington “had lumps in our throats last Dec. 15” when they received Murdoch’s letter of resignation from the agency.

“I’m delighted this cookbook is dedicated to Henry,” she concluded. “It is really an honour to dedicate this project to Henry.”

Anyone interested in purchasing a cookbook can do so by dropping into the Arnprior-Brae-side-McNab Seniors At Home Program Inc. offi ce 106 McGonigal St. W., Arnprior, during regular business hours. But act quickly, as of Tuesday, there were only 220 left.

EMC lifestyle - It’s easy to buy hamburger patties already made up, but if you’d like to have a hamburger with more fl avour, you might want to make your own.

By adding seasonings to ground beef, along with bread-crumbs and an egg, you can make a hamburger patty with lots of fl avour.

Whatever seasoning you choose will add its own distinctive taste whether it’s oregano, basil, chili powder, cumin seed, caraway seed, garlic or onion.

For the breadcrumbs, you can use dark rye, whole wheat or sourdough bread.

This week’s recipe will get you started with a cumin-fl avoured mixture that makes great tasting hamburgers.

CUMIN AND ONION BURGERS

454 grams lean ground beef1 tbsp. olive or vegetable oil1/3 cup fi nely minced onion1/3 cup fi ne dry bread crumbs1 egg1/2 tsp. Worcestershire sauce1/4 tsp. cumin seed1/4 tsp. saltIn a small frying pan, cook the onion in the oil

until softened.In a large mixing bowl, combine the onion

with the meat and remaining ingredients.Lightly mix the ingredients together with either

a rubber spatula or with your hands. The mixture will be messy so wear latex gloves if you’re using your hands.

Shape the mixture into four patties about two centimetres thick.

Handle the meat gently, and don’t press down on it too hard. This helps to keep the mixture moist.

Cook the hamburgers over high heat on a bar-becue grill or frying pan for one to two minutes per side.

Move the burgers to an area of medium heat on your barbecue, or lower the frying pan tem-perature to medium.

Lower the barbecue lid or place a lid on the frying pan, and cook the hamburgers for fi ve to six minutes on one side.

Don’t press them down with a spatula as this will squeeze out more moisture.

Turn the patties over, and cook, covered, for another fi ve to six minutes. When done, the inter-nal temperature of the hamburger patties should read 160 F (71 C) on a meat thermometer.

Serve on toasted buns with your favorite top-pings.

Makes four hamburgers.

Singer sewing machine put to good use with fl our bagsEMC lifestyle - With lon-

ger days on the farm in the ‘30s this time of year, Mother was able to make use of a few extra hours in the evening when she didn’t have to de-pend on the coal oil lamp for lighting.

Although she still spent time each night on her diaries at the kitchen table, she usu-ally was able to fi nd time to pull out the old pedal Singer sewing machine and often worked long into the night. Of course, when it fi nally got too dark to see from the light of the window, she would have to move the lamp from the kitchen table to the win-dow sill, under which sat the old sewing machine that was in the house when she moved there.

Father had no idea how long it had been there under the window, but he remem-bered his own mother making

shirts and mending overalls on the very machine Mother was putting to use decades later.

It was this time of year that fl our and sugar bags took on a whole new and different life. Mother would have been sav-ing them since the winter be-fore, so that she had a goodly supply when she got down to making them into everything from blouses for Audrey and me, aprons, tea towels, pil-lowcases, and even sheets.

Some she was able to buy for a few pennies at the grist-mill in Renfrew, and the rest came from bags of fl our and

sugar we bought at Briscoe’s General Store.

It would take many wash-ings, and bleachings with javel water to try to rid the bags of their printing. With some, it was impossible. Pride of the Valley, and Red Rose, and other company lo-gos were there forever, and it wasn’t unusual for me to go off to school in bloomers that still showed ‘Pride of Valley’ fi rmly printed across the seat.

But then, I wasn’t the only one at the Northcote School who wore fl our bag under-wear, so there was no embar-rassment for any of us girls

whose mothers had put the bags to good use.

If the javel water didn’t totally remove the printing, which was always in bright red or a vivid blue, Mother would choose a bright warm and sunny day, and spread out the bags over the grass in the yard, hopeful to fade the printing further. She was only marginally successful. On those bags, the printing was there to stay!

On the summer evenings that Mother tackled the job of turning the bags into some-thing useful, we fi ve children would go to bed upstairs as usual, knowing that Mother’s job would go on long into the night at the Singer sewing machine

We weren’t spared our nightly prayers around her knee, however. They were as important as our fi nal trip out to the outhouse before climb-

ing the stairs. I would have trouble fall-

ing asleep those nights. Not because I found the noise of the machine irksome, but be-cause I didn’t want to miss a moment of the sound of it.

I could picture in my mind, Mother hunched over the Singer, feeding the fl our bags under the foot lever that steered the needle.

I could picture her slip-pered feet working the foot pedal, with the rubber cord that turned the sewing ma-chine into something other than a piece of furniture that held potted geraniums when not in use.

How I wished I could be downstairs in the kitchen, sit-ting beside her, watching her work her miracles with the fl our bags.

I knew when I came down-stairs in the morning, there would be perhaps a new

blouse made wearable with added red rick-rack braid around the collar, and perhaps bright buttons down the front. Or there would be a stack of fresh tea towels, waiting for my sister Audrey’s deft hand at embroidering the ends with tea cups, or fl owers.

The biggest and the best of the bags would be saved for sheets. It would be years before I knew sheets came in one piece. Ours were made of four fl our bags, sewn togeth-er, with seams going up the centre and from side-to-side.

And always there would be new and fresh pinny aprons, and, of course, one or two pairs of new bloomers.

Eventually sleep would overcome me. And I would doze off to the steady click-clack, click clack of the old Singer sewing machine, play-ing its steady tune downstairs in the kitchen.

Mary Cook’s MemoriesBY MARY COOK

Beat the heat and avoid heat stroke: Canadian Red CrossCanadian Red Cross

As the temperature rises, the Red Cross reminds Cana-dians to stay cool, healthy and safe. While the summer season is a favourite time of year for many, extensive exposure to extreme heat can result in seri-

ous medical conditions such as heat cramps, heat exhaustion and heat stroke.

“First and most importantly, be sure to drink plenty of wa-ter throughout the day,” says Lesley Anderson, First Aid program representative of the

Canadian Red Cross in Ot-tawa. “A signifi cant amount of water is lost through sweating, and that needs to be constantly replenished.”

Heat-related emergencies include heat cramps, heat exhaustion and heat stroke.

Children, the elderly and those with certain health conditions are particularly susceptible. Check on friends and family members who may be isolated or unaware they are at risk.

The Red Cross offers the following tips to help you stay

safe during hot weather.• Drink plenty of cool fl uids,

but avoid caffeine and alcohol.• Avoid being outdoors dur-

ing the middle of the day, when the sun is at its strongest.

• Work and exercise in brief periods. Take frequent breaks

in a cool or shaded area. • Dress in light, loose cloth-

ing. Wear a hat and sunglass-es.

• Wear sunscreen with a high sun protection factor (SPF) to protect your skin from sunburn.

Peter [email protected]

The Canadian Wildlife Federation, Algon-quin College, Ministry of Natural Resources and the Arnprior Fish and Game Club have been working in partnership, tracking American eels (Anguilla rostrata) in the Ottawa River.

“The project has been ongoing since 2007,” MNR Madawaska Area biologist Kirby Punt said May 16.

“The eel work has been running on the river really well this year.

“We have also caught eight eels to date this year, a quick start to the netting season.”

Punt implanted another transmitter into the latest eel at the Bonnechere River boat launch on River Road in Horton Township.

The eel was then taken back out to the Ot-tawa River and released at the catch site near the shores on the Quebec side.

“We have 25 eels in the river now, with some meeting their fate through the generation sta-tions,” Punt added.

Punt said they should be able to track the eel’s whereabouts for two years, until the trans-mitter battery runs out.

It is estimated the Ottawa River is home to an estimated 2,000 American eels.

The American eel is considered a threatened specious.

All the American eels found in Ontario – the Ottawa and St. Lawrence rivers, as well as Lake Ontario – are female, Putt pointed out.

Males can be found along the east coast.The eel’s life takes on a course not unsimi-

lar, yet the opposite, to salmon.While salmon start and fi nish life’s journey

in fresh water, the eel starts out in the salt water of the Caribbean, and make their way into the fresh water, eventually to return to the Atlantic Ocean for spawning. After she lays her eggs, the female dies.

The oldest eel on record lived to be 43 years, while the largest found in Lake Ontario was 10 pounds.

The eel, which was returned to the Ottawa River, measured 41 inches and weighed fi ve pounds.

It was put in an anesthetic solution in prepa-ration for the surgery, which took less than 10 minutes.

With the assistance of Eric Smith of the Arn-prior Fish and Game Club, Punt then performed the incision of the transmitter. “It leaves almost no scars,” he said.

“They are an intregal part of the project,” Punt added of the Arnprior Fish and Game Club. “Without them, it wouldn’t have gotten off the ground.”

“We tagged eight eels this year, did nine last year, and fi ve the year before,” Smith said.

They can follow the path of each individual eel, although contact with some is lost with the end of the battery life.

HELP APPRECIATED

Anglers who catch eels in the Lac des Chats section of the Ottawa River, or anywhere up-stream, either in the main channel of the Ot-tawa or in any of its tributaries such as the Madawaska or Bonnechere Rivers are asked to record as much information as possible before releasing it.

This information includes, if possible:• weight, length, girth;• location (GPS if you have it, or approxi-

mate location using local landmarks);• depth of water and bottom type;• bait or lure type;• time of day.There is no season on American eels in the

Ottawa River, so any eels caught must be re-leased, Punt noted.

Teamwork helps protect eels in the Ottawa River

Kinburn yard is invaded by the petal snatchers Michael RuntzNature’s Way

EMC lifestyle – Recently, I re-ceived a phone call from a loyal reader about an invasion of beetles in her backyard near Kinburn.

They were about three-quarter of an inch long, bluish-green with a pointed abdomen and orange legs. And there were hundreds of them.

The beetles suddenly appeared out of nowhere and immediately be-gan devouring garden fl owers.

I was sent photos that revealed them to be Blister Beetles, but before I delved into my books to identify the species, the reader’s daughter did just that, correctly identifying them as Lytta sayi, Say’s Blister Beetles.

Blister Beetles are a fascinat-ing group of insects. Unlike June Beetles that have distinctly hardened wing covers (elytra), Blister Beetles (formally known as Meloidae) have softer, elongated wing covers that appear to never fully close.

Adults eat fl oral parts, but the lar-vae are predators of bees, and they attain their meals in a most unusual way. The tiny larvae sit on fl owers and grab onto a bee that drops in for a meal. The fi rst larval Blister Bee-tles ever observed were thought to be lice on bees!

When the bee arrives back at its nest, its hitchhiker drops off and pro-ceeds to eat the bee’s egg. After that hors d’oeuvre is devoured, the larva

goes for the pollen and nectar the mother bee stored for her ill-fated young.

Blister Beetles are named for the defensive liquid that oozes from their leg joints when under attack. The chemical is cantharidin and it can burn skin; hence the common name of the group.

Historically we have used that chemical for a very different pur-pose. Older readers might recognize the term “Spanish Fly.” That early version of Viagra (commonly used during Roman orgies) was derived from the bodies of Blister Beetles that are relatives of the species that visited the Kinburn garden.

Once when I was photographing a

Blister Beetle devouring Vetch fl ow-ers, I noticed tiny fl ies darting around the beetle and repeatedly biting it. The beetle responded by swiping at the fl ies with its legs.

The fl ies were Biting Midges and they were apparently arming them-selves with the defensive chemical they were stealing from beetle.

Some Blister Beetles display an-other defence. When provoked, they play dead. Just in case their attacker decides to sample them, they also re-lease liberal amounts of cantharidin out of their leg joints.

Fortunately, the reader did not mishandle or eat any of her beetle visitors. The beetles did not stay long - only a few hours - just long enough

to defl ower a portion of the garden. Apparently that while the peonies and irises were enjoyed, indigo was their favourite.

So why did the beetles arrive in such numbers and move on so quick-ly? The answer is that they were in the mood for mating, and certain chemicals given off by the beetles resulted in what is known as a mat-ing aggregation.

Garden fl owers often attract beau-tiful and unusual insect visitors. Per-haps you should keep a close eye on yours, in case you too experience an invasion of the petal snatchers!

EMC lifestyle – What a great weekend!

The 150th Anniversary Celebration was a success and it was great to see all of the families and friends out en-joying the great weather along with all of the events going on in town.

Our geo-caching program was a big hit with the youth; they hiked through the trails of the Grove and found some interesting caches.

The movie in the park

that featured the movie ‘Real Steel’ had a great turnout, de-spite the not so nice weather. All in all, it was a great week-end that brought families and friends together.

As the school year comes to an end, we are all think-ing about summer vacations, time to relax and no school. But we are still here offering some great youth programs here at the Nick Smith Centre. Don’t forget that you can still use your Arnprior Gets Active Pass throughout the summer for swimming and skating.

Although we have pro-grams through the summer, we are wrapping up a few programs right now.

One of our programs that is coming to an end is our Dodgeball program. Our last week for Dodgeball is going to be Monday, June 18 from 6 to 7 p.m. This program is open to ages 9 to 17 and is free and drop-in. But not to worry, we will be starting up Dodgeball again in the fall.

Our Spikes Volleyball pro-gram has been running for the past six weeks and is going

strong. We have learned all about volleyball; the skills, bumping, serving, volleying and much more. The last day of Spikes is Tuesday, June 26 and we will be having a big game with all of the players and coaches to show off what we have learned.

For the past three years our Ball Hockey program has been very successful; our participants have grown every year with not only their skill development but their knowl-edge of the game and how to play fair and have fun. This season’s ball hockey league only has one week left.

The last day of ball hockey is Wednesday, June 20 and we will be hosting a skills competition for the Novice, Atom and Peewee divisions.

The participants will have the opportunity to showcase their skills in an accuracy challenge, relay races and the goalies will show their skills in a shootout challenge.

The Bantam division will be host to a game against their coaches and anyone else who is willing to play. It is a non-competitive game, so make sure to go out there and have a good time.

What better way to ring in the summer then hanging out with your friends, listening to your favourite music and the videos to go with them. Our Much Music Dance is this Friday, June 15 from 7-10 p.m. Tickets are only $15 in advance or $20 at the door.

This is a zero tolerance dance that is adult chaper-

oned. We are still looking for adult volunteers; if you are in-terested please contact [email protected].

With all of our high school students looking for volunteer hours, we are doing a call-out to any organizations that are looking for high school volunteers. If you are inter-ested, please contact us and we will be putting a spread in the Arnprior Life magazine of all organizations looking for volunteers. This will help the high school students fi nd a place to complete their volun-teer hours.

If you have any questions, please contact [email protected] or call 613-623-7301, ext. 217. Don’t forget to add us as a friend on Facebook under Nick Smith Centre.

EMC events – The Arn-prior and District Humane Society is holding one of its most important fundraisers this Sunday, June 17.

The annual Walk in the Park will be held in scenic Robert Simpson Park begin-ning at noon.

The event is much more than a fundraising walk, it’s also a party and celebration of the local humane society’s shelter that has found new homes for so many homeless

pets.As well as the Walk-a-

Thon, there will be a char-ity barbecue and music from Spirit of 69, fresh off its per-formance at the Arnprior 150 celebration.

Registration for the Walk-a-Thon begins at 11 a.m. Par-ticipants are urged to get a pledge form from the society or on the website www.arn-priorhumanesociety.ca.

All proceeds go directly to the Humane Society’s no-kill

animal shelter in Arnprior.The society is asking for a

minimum pledge of $20 per walker, as the pledges are key to the event raising its fund-raising goal. Top pledge-get-ters will qualify for prizes.

While walkers are welcome to bring their pets (please have them leashed), participants without pets are welcome.

The walk will go ahead rain or shine. “Come out and enjoy the day … and support a good cause,” say organizers.

EMC lifestyle – Canada Day is a time for family and friends to gather and have a great time but not necessarily for your pets.

All the noise and confusion can add to an already old and confused senior, scare the little puppy and even upset the more seasoned adult. For a safe holi-day weekend, leave your pets at home.

All too often, I hear of sto-ries of dogs missing from campsites and cottage country. Screen doors ripped right out of the doorframes, windows bro-ken and drywall clawed right through to freedom. Canada Day Celebrations are clearly not for everyone.

Many dangers such as bon-fi res, fi reworks, beaches, swim-ming pools and, yes, alcohol all pose a health concern to your pet.

Many times dogs run during the fi reworks without a nam-etag, license or even a micro-chip, never to be found. Dogs can fall into open fi re pits and can drown in pools or at the beach if unsupervised. Would you leave your children unsu-pervised!

The best-case scenario is to leave your pet at home. If you must take Fido with you, leave Fido at the cottage during the fi reworks with a light on, win-dows shut, the blinds down and turn on the radio or television for distraction.

Make sure your pet is se-cure in an area that is safe and comfortable and will not pose a threat or become dangerous.

Make sure you leave a bowl of fresh water and a favorite toy or two to chew on.

For those of you that are go-ing to rough it and set up a tent or two, I would recommend that you defi nitely leave Fido at home. There really is no safe or quiet place for Fido to chill out during the noise and confusion.

Every year dogs go missing from campsites and cottages. Make sure your pet has a collar with a nametag clearly identify-ing the dog’s name address and phone number, a license and a microchip.

Whether you camp or not, all dogs and puppies should have clearly identifi able tags and li-censes on their collars. Licens-ing is the law.

Food and alcohol have al-

ways been a big part of the festivities and although to us humans it’s fun, it is not for our pets. Nobody likes being sick away from home and if in the event it becomes serious, your pet could die out in the bush before you could get to a vet-erinarian and good luck fi nding one open on a holiday week-end.

Foods like onions and celery are not safe for your pet. Des-serts that contain chocolate can be very dangerous.

Bones from steaks and fowl can be a problem on the way down and on the way out or worse get stuck and cause your pet to choke to death.

Canada Day is a time to cel-ebrate with family and friends. So here’s to good times, great friends, great food and a cold one. Be safe and keep your pets safe.

From my family to yours, Happy Canada Day, eh!

Ian owns and operates Wags & Whiskers Pet Grooming and Puppy Kindergarten at 118 John St. North. For comments or suggestions, Ian can be reached at 613-623-6200 or [email protected].

Landowners elect executive, review year that was at AGMTheresa [email protected]

EMC news – The annual general meeting of the Carleton Landowners Association (CLA) would draw a crowd, but the May 17 meeting was an exception.

The AGM drew a standing room only crowd to the Carp Agricultural Society hall last month, although a number of attendees came from other areas or other landowner associa-tions. Many were there to hear from Liz Mar-shall, the Collingwood resident who has raised public awareness about the legal rights con-tained in Crown Land Patent Grants.

Ontario Landowners Association (OLA) president Tom Black announced that Marshall was elected to the board of directors of the Ca-nadian Justice Review Board, Marshall is the chair of research for the OLA and continues to be a strong and outspoken advocate.

As well, attendees also heard from Terrance J. Green and his associates who stated they are prepared to pursue a class action suit against Ontario’s conservation authorities.

In Ontario there are currently 36 conserva-tion authorities, formed under the Conservation Authority Act of 1946. West Carleton-March falls under the jurisdiction of Mississippi Val-ley Conservation.

The mandate of conservation authorities is to ensure water quality, prevent fl ooding, re-duce erosion, preserve wildlife, ensure there is proper access to the 300 conservation areas

in Ontario and enhance conservation efforts. They also comment on development if there is a potential impact on wetlands.

The idea behind the suit is to bring the con-servation authorities back them back to their original mandate, according to Green associa-tion Mariah Soper.

They can enter you land, take your land, in-timidate you and confuse you,” she cautioned. “We need to stop them from doing this. We need to bring them back to their original man-date.”

But even with all the big news emerging from the meeting, the CLA also reported on the year that was locally. According to its mis-sion statement, the mission of the CLA is “to promote and defend the property rights of the residents of Ottawa and Carleton County. Our objective will be the organization of choice for guidance and support when property rights in Ottawa/Carleton are challenged.”

CLA director Mark Tijessen spoke about the development of a business plan for the orga-nization and it will “help focus our organiza-tion.”

He said the more members the CLA and OLA have, the strong the organizations are.

“Numbers matter,” he said, adding a lot can be accomplished when people give of their time to the cause.

CLA president Shirley Dolan spoke about the fact the CLA has a new website at www.carletonlandowners.com and are now on Face-

book. There is also an electronic newsletter which is another way of reading people.

Financially, the organization is strong and she reported a closing balance of $8,324.98 at the end of the fi scal year.

“I really want to thank the board of directors that supported the Carleton Landowners Asso-ciation and me this year,” Dolan stated. “We couldn’t have had a meeting like this without them…every person on that board is a star and ahs contributed.”

Dolan also presented volunteer appreciation awards to two CLA members – Mike Westley and Mark Tijessen.

Black spoke about how proud the OLA is to see former OLA and CLA president Jack Ma-cLaren elected last fall as the MPP for Carleton-Mississippi Mills. As well, Black said the OLA will continue to right for property rights and the importance of Land Patent Grants, even if former OLA president and Lanark-Frontenac-Lennox and Addington MPP Randy Hillier has broken ranks with the organization and called the pursuit a waste of time.

MPP SPEAKS

For his part, MacLaren said speaking at the CLA meeting felt “like coming home.” He ad-mitted that some of his counterparts at Queen’s Park have been a little unsure about what to make of him as they know of his background involve landowner rights and associations.

“My challenge is to show them I only have one head,” he joked. “We (landowner group members) are a principled people who will stand up for what is right. Don’t be afraid to say you can’t come on my property.”

MacLaren said he has found working with NDP members at Queen’s Park to be easier is some cases. He said they are “principled peo-ple” and even though their politics might be different, they supported his Private Members’ Bill which would have left some authority in the hands of OSPCA offi cers but called for limitations on the organization’s policing pow-ers. The bill died on the fl oor of the Ontario Legislature in March.

“What we were trying to do was the right idea,” he said.

MacLaren pledged to continue fi ghting for what is right and urged all landowners to do what is legal and right to defend their property rights.

“There is hope. It is going to be a long bat-tle,” MacLaren advised.

As part of the AGM, the CLA’s 2012-2013 board of directors was nominated. The board includes: Shirley Dolan - president/treasurer, Tom Black - past president, Robert Ralph - vice-president, Donna Wilson – member-ships, Dale Larose – secretary, and directors David Ascroft, Roch Lalande, Gerry Jette, Mike Westley, Sonja Vanek, Larry Shouldice, Tim Mount, Ade Olumide, Mark Tijessen, and Aline Maheral.

Cheap Trick to headlineCarp Fair entertainmentTheresa [email protected]

EMC events – They may have been blown away at Ottawa Bluesfest last year, but this year Cheap Trick is going to give the 149th Carp Fair a try.

The ‘70s rockers had their show cut short at the outdoor festival last July 17 when a fi erce storm blew in, causing their stage to collapse.

While their equipment was trashed, and their driver among three people injured, the band was unhurt.

Having gone through the harrowing situ-ation last summer, the group was somewhat reluctant about returning to a similar outdoor venue.

But Carp Fair organizers were able to sway them back to a more rural part of the city.

“That (coming back to Ottawa) was a bit of hurdle. They didn’t want to play on any stage that resembled Bluesfest,” says fair general manager Joyce Trafford.

“Ours is an indoor stage and they were fi ne with that.”

She admitted having the band perform in Carp “will be huge,” considering they were only 20 minutes into their set at Bluesfest when they forced off the stage by the storm.

Cheap Trick will perform at a ticketed event at Carp Fair Friday, Sept. 21 at the W. Erskine Johnston Arena.

But, they are not the only act booked for the arena for this year’s fair.

Perennial Valley favourite Gail Gavan & Friends will perform on Thursday, Sept. 20 at the traditional Homecoming night for the fair.

Admission to this show is a twoonie dona-tion with money going to a charity of the fair board’s choosing.

This charity has not been announced yet.

The Sept. 22 Saturday afternoon concert will feature Caroll Baker and George Fox. This show is free with fair gate admission.

Born in Nova Scotia, Baker had her own television series on CBC in 1983 and also appeared regularly on the Tommy Hunter Show.

She was inducted into the Canadian Coun-try Music Hall of Fame in 1992.

As for Fox, the Alberta native won three Canadian Country Music Awards for male vocalist of the year and three JUNO awards for country male vocalist of the year.

The Saturday evening show is a ticketed event featuring Canadian country trio Doc Walker. The JUNO-award winning band hails from Portage La Prairie, Manitoba and was nominated for 2012 Country Album of the Year for their 2011 release 16&1.

The album that includes ‘Country Girl’, ‘Do It Right’ and their new single ‘Where I Belong’.

The weekend of Carp Fair entertainment rounds out on Sunday, Sept. 23, with an afternoon concert by ’80s new wave group Platinum Blonde.

This concert is free with fair gate admis-sion.

Platinum Blonde, led by frontman Mark Holmes, is known for such hits at ‘Stand-ing the Dark’, ‘It Doesn’t Really Matter’ and ‘Crying Over You’.

Trafford said there is some variety in the entertainment, something fair organizers to fi nd each year.

“We try to give something to everyone,” Trafford notes.

Tickets for the ticketed shows are expected to go on sale Aug. 7 at the Carp Fair offi ce, located at 3790 Carp Rd. in Carp.

Visit the Carp Fair website at www.carp-fair.ca for more information.
