Are you ready to rock Kanata?JESSICA CUNHA

Canadian band Sloan is looking forward to celebrating Canada Day in Kanata at an outdoor show at Walter Baker Park on Fri-day.

“We’re looking forward to coming back into Canada to play on Canada Day,” said

guitarist Jay Ferguson.“I do fi nd when you play the United States

and cross back over the boarder into Canada you feel a sense of relief.”

The band is playing in Brooklyn, N.Y., the day before the July 1 event.

The Juno award-winning band, which in-cludes guitarists Ferguson and Patrick Pent-land, bassist Chris Murphy and drummer

Andrew Scott, released its tenth full-length album The Double Cross in May.

Sloan is touring across North America to celebrate the release and mark the band’s 20th anniversary.

“The album is doing well. The shows have been going really well,” said Ferguson.

Fire destroys Bridlewood homeJESSICA CUNHA

[email protected]

Explosions and a fi re de-stroyed a two-storey house on Grassy Plains Drive in Bridlewood last week.

The Ottawa fi re depart-ment received multiple calls around 8:50 p.m. on Wednes-day, June 22, reporting ex-plosions and fl ames coming from the house.

A couple, two children and a grandmother living at the residence evacuated after hearing an explosion, said fi re department spokesman Marc Messier.

One of the homeowners and a neighbour helped the grandmother out of her sec-ond fl oor bedroom.

She was treated at the scene and taken to hospital by paramedics for a pre-ex-isting medical condition, said Messier.

No one was injured as a result of the fi re.

The home was fully en-gulfed when fi re crews ar-

rived.The fl ames spread to the

roof of a neighbouring house, melting the siding and damaging the attic.

Former Ottawa Senators player Shawn Van Allen, his wife and three children es-caped uninjured.

The house suffered water and smoke damage to the second fl oor of the home but fi re crews were able to cover most of the contents with tarps to protect them from further damage, said Messier.

The blaze is believed to have started in the garage of the house at 168, but the cause of the explosions and fi re is still under investiga-tion.

Fifty fi refi ghters and 15 vehicles responded to the call.

The fi re was under control just after 10 p.m.

Damages were estimated at around $850,000.

Both families were dis-placed by the fi re.

SLOAN, from 1

“It’s nice that people still remember us and enjoy the records that we’re making.”

He said although the new songs are a lot of fun to play, the show on Can-ada Day will be fi lled with many old favourites.

“When we play Kanata it’ll defi nite-ly be a little bit of a different show,” said Ferguson. “We’ll try to skew it more with recognizable songs that people hear on the radio. Defi nitely

when we play those outdoor festivals we skew it a little more to songs people will recognize.”

With expected crowds of 30,000 people for the event, Ferguson said he’s looking forward to feeding off the crowd’s energy.

“If you get a good audience, if the audience is there to participate and have a good time the energy is fed back to us,” he said. “Hopefully sing-a-longs will ensue.”

Sloan is planning on sticking around to witness the grand fi nale of

the event.“We’ll be there for the fi reworks for

sure,” said Ferguson, adding the band will probably have to drive out over-night for a quick rest in Toronto be-fore moving on in the touring circuit.

Last year, the band played Canada Day in Los Angeles on Sunset Bou-levard. Although Sloan enjoyed the celebrations, Ferguson said it doesn’t compare to playing July 1 outdoors in Canada.

“We’re really looking forward to playing,” he said. “I like playing out-

KNL Developments hosted a public meeting at All Saints Catholic High School on Wednesday, June 22, to provide an update about its housing project near the Beaver Pond.

A group of more than 20 opponents of the development staged a peaceful protest outside the high school before the start of the meeting, which was hosted by Kanata North Coun. Marianne Wilkinson.

KNL, a partnership of Richcraft Homes and Urbandale Corp., plans to build 259 single family homes and 214 street homes on land north of the Beaver Pond, with construction to begin in the fall or win-ter of 2012.

The Beaver Pond development will in-clude an 80-metre corridor of green space that will connect to Trillium Woods, as negotiated in a land swap deal with the City of Ottawa.

The recreation trails running through the development will remain shut down until construction is fi nished, hopefully by early 2013, said Jarvis.

The company has fi nished clear cut-ting but will hold off on removing the tree stumps until it fi nishes another ar-chaeological study.

“We made a commitment to work with the Algonquins of Ontario,” she said. “We will continue to do this.”

After it removes all the tree stumps, KNL will start blasting – a process that

will last four to fi ve months and start servicing the site in either the spring or summer of 2012, said Mary Jarvis, Ur-bandale’s director of planning.

Jarvis faced a hostile crowd, with many members of the audience inter-rupting her presentation with questions or statements.

Four police offi cers attended the meet-ing, but were never forced to take action.

Gord Henderson, the former president of the Kanata Beaverbrook Community Association and a member of the Coali-tion to Protect the South March High-lands, said tree-cutting to prepare for construction on the Beaver Pond land has destroyed animal habitat and killed hibernating animals.

“We need a municipal bylaw to address this kind of (action) so we do not see clear cutting when animals are hibernating,” he said. “It’s disgusting.”

When Jarvis attempted to continue her presentation, Daniel Bernard, a member of the Algonquin Amikwabe (Beaver Na-tion), interrupted, asking Urbandale to reconsider moving ahead with the hous-ing project.

“This is the land of my ancestors you are destroying,” he said. “This is the last urban forest you have.

“I say this to you KNL, you have done wrong to the Algonquin Nation,” he said. “The forest when it is destroyed can nev-er be replaced.”

After more than half a decade of mud-dling its way through the fi le, Ottawa city council made a positive fi rst step toward building an effective light rail

system last week.It might not have the same impact as the mas-

sive, multi-billion dollar light-rail transit plan that is slowly working its way through city hall, but the approval of a plan to purchase six new trains and construct a pair of passing sections on the north-south O-Train line puts the city on course to realize the benefi ts of a truly effective transit system.

Started as a pilot project back in 2001, the cur-rent O-Train line that runs from Bayview south to Greenboro has reached capacity. The introduc-tion of additional trains – the current system uses two – will drastically increase that capacity and will reduce the average wait time between trains from 15 to eight minutes. But for nearly $60 mil-lion, what a grown-up version of the O-Train will provide is a taste of the potential light rail has to improve transit in this city.

For many residents, transit can mean waiting in the heat or cold for a bus that will only get stuck amid the throng of other commuters clogging the streets.

For those with access to the O-Train, this invest-ment will mean a vastly improved experience, especially when trips on the Transitway become less enticing once construction on the east-west LRT grinds service through Hurdman Station to a halt.

The move also opens the door for future expan-sion of the north-south line. Transit Commission chairwoman Diane Deans has already asked city staffers to look at the feasibility of extending the O-Train as far south as the Leitrim park-and-ride, providing rail access to the growing community of Riverside South and the airport. The addition of new stops along the existing line is also being proposed by members of the community.

The expansion of the O-Train represents the fi rst real improvement to transit in Ottawa in re-cent years, and will mark the beginning of a light rail revolution in the nation’s capital.

On the right track

It is a winding road of logic that leads to the conclusion that there would have been no riots in Vancou-ver if people still smoked, but you

are patient people and the journey is an interesting one.

Begin with a series of observations. At the gym, a man gets dressed after his workout, steps out into the lobby and takes out his cellphone. Coming out of a concert, a couple pauses outside the door while both people draw cellphones out of their pockets. Sitting alone in a restaurant, a woman toys with her phone while she waits. In a car stopped at a light, a man furtively checks his phone.

Now, they may all have important calls to make, important messages to read, but what they are doing looks so much like smoking it’s spooky.

When people used to smoke, that’s when they did it – coming out of a place where smoking was forbidden, such as a church or concert hall, sitting in the car, waiting alone for someone. Now they use the phone in the same situation – as a reward, as something to pass the time, as something to disguise the fact that they have nothing to do.

Perhaps people don’t check their cellphones after sex, another stereotypi-

cal cigarette moment, but these days you can never be too sure.

Another classic cigarette moment that can’t be replicated with the cellphone is the act of picking up the phone. A lot of people used to light up when making a call. Picking up the phone while pick-ing up the phone doesn’t make a lot of sense, although you wouldn’t put it past some people.

With this incontrovertible evidence at hand, do we make the logical leap and blame the decline of the cigarette for the rise of the cellphone? Of course. Remember the Law of Unintended Con-sequences? It’s obviously at work here. We got rid, for the most part, of a habit that caused death and disease, both to practitioners and innocent bystanders. We rid our indoor spaces, not to mention our clothes, of vile smells and unbreath-

able air. So that was all good.Our reward was the outbreak of

another vice, less fatal and less smelly, but with social implications we are only now beginning to measure.

Short attention spans, people seem-ingly talking to themselves on buses, customized ringtones interrupting plays and concerts, some very weird driving – we are familiar with all of these and the consequences are no mystery.

We know far less about the conse-quences of everyone carrying a cam-era in their telephone. Thanks to the telephone camera, more people than ever before take photos. How does it affect people’s behaviour knowing that just about every person they meet is a photographer?

Well, for many people, not enough. Celebrities seem to indulge in just as many colourful activities as before, their lapses in judgment captured by amateur cellphone paparazzi. People sleep on the job, drive and text while cellphone vigilantes point and click.

So the cellphone camera seems to be no deterrent to bad behaviour. The ques-tion raised by the Vancouver riots is whether the cellphone camera actually encourages that behaviour.

To watch the proceedings on live TV,

you would certainly think so. Thug after thug, idiot after idiot jumped in front of the cameras to set something on fi re, break a window or just stand on a burn-ing car and yell.

Some strange quest for immortality may have been at play here. Who knows? What we do know, or at least suspect, is that the yahoos would not have been so enthusiastic had they not had a big audi-ence. And the audience might have gone home, making the situation much more manageable, if they hadn’t had cell-phone cameras and the urge to record history.

Things would have been so much bet-ter, if all they’d done was stand around and smoke.

Something else to blame on the cellphoneCOLUMN

Algonquin youth cycling across Canada support Beaver PondPROTEST, from 5

Bernard left after making a speech, fol-lowed by a small group of the audience.

A few minutes later, Henderson asked the audience to follow Bernard.

“I’d like you to respect their opinion and walk out of the meeting now,” he said.

Henderson left, along with half of the attend-ees.

Steve Hulaj, president of the Kanata Lakes Com-munity Association, and a member of the Coali-tion to Protect the South March Highlands, said construction work on the housing development will damage the area’s drain-age system.

Jarvis said the com-pany only started clear cutting the area once it received a thumbs up from the city and provincial government.

In response to several questions about the fate of the area’s rare butternut trees, Jarvis said the developer will plant new canker-resistant butternut trees in com-pensation.

“I don’t know if I can sit through this,” said another member of the audience. “It

turns my stomach.“I’m not happy you’re there at all.”Jarvis later replied, “We own the prop-

erty. So we’re not going away.”

CYCLISTS

A group of seven Algonquin First Na-tion youth cycled more than 400 kilome-

tres from Val d’Or, Que. to Ottawa to participate in the Aboriginal Pipe Ceremony on Victoria Island.

The seven youth also attended the protest at All Saints on Wednes-day night.

The youth, who plan to cycle across the coun-try over the next two months to raise aware-ness about children who are hooked on drugs and alcohol, came to Ottawa

to meet with Algonquin elder William Commanda.

“We came to support the community,” said Evelyne Papatie, one of the cyclists. “William Commanda had a vision and his vision is to serve the forest.”

The youth planned to camp out on the Beaver Pond land on Thursday, June 23, be-fore continuing their trek across Canada.

We own the property. So we’re not going away.

The Western Ottawa Community Resource Centre handed out awards to the winners of the teen relationship poster contest on Wednesday, June 22.

The contest, called Love Shouldn’t Be a Battlefi eld, was created to shed light on violence in teen relationships among high school students.

“The messages on the posters is so, so powerful,” said Cathy Jordan, ex-ecutive director of the WOCRC. “The contest helps to spread the word that violence is not OK.”

First place winner Hailey Kehler was awarded an iPod for her winning design.

Her poster depicts a young man raising his hand to a girl in a dimly lit hallway. The word “help” is written on the sole of her shoe.

The poster states: “Others can’t al-ways see the effects of dating violence

on your soul. Write ‘help’ on the sole of your shoe and start a conversation about dating violence and its effects” – with help standing for Healthy Equal Loving Partners.”

“A healthy relationship is defi nitely a key,” said Hailey, a Grade 11 student at Sacred Heart Catholic High School in Stittsville. “It doesn’t just affect the outside physically, but emotionally too.”

She got the idea from the non-profi t movement To Write Love on Her Arms, a group dedicated to help people strug-gling with depression, addiction, self-injury and suicide.

“I felt the need to communicate,” said Hailey about writing HELP on the sole of shoes. “Women’s rights are so important.”

About six of her friends have helped spread her message by putting HELP on their footwear, she said.

“Hailey created a whole campaign around her poster,” said Jordan.

WINNING DESIGNS

A.Y. Jackson Secondary Student Lisa Cummings took second place for her ‘Stop and Look’ poster.

“I think it’s important, you want to trust the person you’re going to be with,” said the Grade 11 student. “In raising awareness, it’s good for people to know there’s help out there for them.”

Lisa won a gift certifi cate to Bay-shore Shopping Centre for her poster.

Grade11 A.Y. Jackson students Kath-rine Marincak, Lizz Jackson, Nicole Madore and Cynthia Ritchie all took home honourable mentions for their poster designs.

“We target the grades 7 and 8s with healthy dating so we wanted some-thing to follow up with the high school students,” said Terry Longhorn, peer support worker at the WOCRC. “The questions they asked…they were ask-ing very intelligent questions. It’s a stepping stone.”

The Kanata Cenotaph got a spring cleaning in the second last week of June.

After John Gooch, the man who spearheaded the campaign to build a cenotaph in Kanata, placed a number of calls to the city, a work crew was sent out to the Kanata Cenotaph for the fi rst time to clean the grounds, which had been littered with weeds and debris.

“I’ve never seen it like before,” said Gooch, a week before the Cenotaph area was cleaned up. “Some of this stuff has been here from the winter.

“This is a dedicated area to those who gave their lives and also those who served and it’s a disgrace.”

The Cenotaph is owned and maintained by the City of Ot-tawa.

Kanata North Coun. Mari-anne Wilkinson said usually the city tries to clean the Cenotaph’s grounds on a regular basis be-cause the signifi cance of the monument is important.

This year, however, the lack of maintenance went unnoticed by city staff.

“It’s something that fell through the cracks,” said Wilkinson. “It happens from time to time.”

Jocelyne Turner, spokesperson for the City of Ottawa, said work crews had cleaned up the weeds around the Cenotaph three times already this year. The fi rst time was in May.

“It does seem that it does over-grow pretty rapidly there,” she said about the weeds.

Because of this, the city has designated a crew to attend to the

Cenotaph once a week.“Now the crews will be going

every Friday morning,” said Turner.

Gooch, a veteran of the Brit-ish army and a member of the Kanata Legion, was behind the creation of the Kanata Cenotaph at Village Green Memorial Park in Colchester Square in 1998.

The 86-year-old Glen Cairn man organized the layout of the cenotaph with the planting of

20 trees, each with a memorial plaque, a central stone, a fl agpole and a commemorative plaque.

Less than two weeks after he received the Mayor’s City Build-er Award for his volunteer work, he said he contacted the mayor’s offi ce about the Cenotaph’s dis-repair, but his calls went unre-turned.

Gooch said he was happy the Cenotaph grounds had fi nally been cleaned up, adding he hoped staff won’t leave it as long be-tween maintenance visits.

“This monument is for the guys that are gone,” said the Second World War veteran. “And someday I will be too.”

Cenotaph maintenance ‘fell through the cracks’

Newly planted trees will be getting a bagged lunch thanks to a new pilot project.

Instead of seeing city workers turning a hose on saplings, get used to the sight of a green bag hanging off of new trees.

The bags will give a drink to 1,500 new city trees with a steady trickle of water direct-ly onto their root systems.

For the fi rst three years of their lives, the city waters trees to ensure they receive enough nutrients to grow. But there is a lot of labour – and wasted water – involved in that process.

The bags will reduce the amount water used by be-tween 40 and 90 litres per tree.

Each “Treegator” (the commercial name the bags are marketed under) holds 64 L of water, which seeps out over a fi ve- to nine-hour period.

The bags will be refi lled every fi ve to eight days – the same schedule as traditional watering.

But watering with a hose leads to a great deal of evap-oration and runoff, which wastes more water, said city spokesperson Jocelyne Turn-er.

The pilot-project trees will be located in parks, boule-vards and along streets in Gloucester Southgate, Bea-con Hill Cyrville, Rideau Va-nier, Rideau Rockcliffe, Capi-tal, Alta Vista and Gloucester South Nepean wards.

The city paid $30,000 for 150,000 of the bags.

Tree watering in the bag for city with ‘Treegators’

Laura Mueller photoThis Treegator at city hall is one of the fi rst of 1,500 watering bags that will be affi xed to city trees as part of a three-year pilot project aimed at reducing water waste.

This monument is for the guys that are gone.

In the summer the compartment of a car can turn into an oven, with poten-tially deadly consequences.

According to the Canada Safety Council, car temperatures can climb so rapidly that they overwhelm childrens’ ability to regulate their internal tem-perature. In a closed environment, the body can go into shock quickly, and cir-culation to the vital organs can fail.

Leaving a window slightly open, or cracked, does little to prevent the tem-perature from rising to a dangerous level for children, vulnerable adults and pets.

The Canada Safety Council says never to leave children unattended in vehicles and always to keep cars locked while in garages or driveways to prevent chil-dren from playing in them.

Please remember that it is never safe to leave a child alone in a vehicle, even for a few minutes.

By Manuel Champoux, Engineering Managerat Metropolitan Rust Proofing Inc.

Recently, I witnessed something nice. A customer had entrusted her vehicle to one of our guys to have it treated. She was in front of our bay window with her eight year old son watching the treatment process. The little boy was continuously asking questions: “Mommy why do car mechanics do that? Why do they use hoses? Why...”

As you probably understood, the youngster was at an age where children ask a lot of questions. The mother let me know that she was at her first visit with us, and didn’t know how to answer such questions. So I told her, “Follow me, we will take a closer look!” I brought them in the workshop.

There were many questions and not only from the youngster. The mother, Lyse-Anne Borde was particularlyimpressed. I gave them a little Rust Proofing 101 lesson and I explained everything: from the six points of our treatment process, to the steps taken for the treatment depending on the particularities of the vehicle. I also explained the importance of drilling holes in strategic locations, our specialized equipment, such as the spray guns that project the oil, and the ongoing training that is given to our technicians.

At the end, Mrs. Borde’s son made me laugh. He looked at me all seriously and said, “Rust proofing is very scientific”. This is true young man! Actually, it is scientific at Metropolitan Rust Proofing, the only company in Quebec that has been specializing in rust proofing for over 30 years now, and treated at least 150 000 vehicles annually. I told the boy, “Science and experience are irreplaceable... one day you’ll understand!”

There was a dismal turnout for the Western Ottawa Community Re-source Centre’s Youth Issues Panel on Tuesday, June 21.

Only 13 people, which included councillors Marianne Wilkinson (Kanata North), Allan Hubley (Kana-ta South) and Shad Qadri (Stittsville), showed up at the Eva James Memori-al Community Centre in Bridlewood to listen to experts on youth issues speak about preventative measures the community can take in the sum-mer to discourage bad behaviour.

The WOCRC services Kanata, Goul-bourn and West Carleton.

“It’s typical,” said Const. Ryan Strotmann about the poor attendance. “We complain.”

This was echoed by Julie McKerch-er, the WOCRC’s community youth worker.

Without something to complain about, people don’t typically show up to preventative meetings, she said.

The meeting was intended to bring together the community and front-line workers dealing with youth is-sues.

Acts like graffi ti, vandalism, be-ing out past curfew, underage drink-ing and drinking in public skyrocket during the summer months, said McKercher.

“It’s a huge, huge, huge issue,” said Jenifer Thomsen, a bylaw offi cer about underage drinking.

Ottawa Bylaw deals with issues such as noise, fi reworks on public property, graffi ti, open air fi re and people using parks after hours.

From 11 p.m. to 5 a.m., no one is supposed to be in the parks, said Thomsen.

“That’s not just youth, that’s every-body,” she said.

“We will follow up with the parents if the child is 15 and under.”

She said people should call by-law if they witness people using parks after hours, or to call the cops if it sounds dangerous.

The same goes for loud parties. By-law will deal with the noise issue, the police deal with underage drinking.

“You have to pick up the phone,” she said. “We react to complaints only.”

Strotmann said if people want to see enforcement in their area, they have to call. Without putting in a for-mal complaint, the police and by-law will assume an area is safe.

“If you’re not phoning, you’re not going to see us,” said Strotmann. “Summer is here, be smart and phone us, phone by-law.”

He added people need to start lock-ing up in order to deter thefts.

“Lock your houses,” he said. “Lock your car doors. Don’t leave your win-

dows wide open.”

TOOLKIT

Crime Prevention Ottawa (CPO) provides a Neighbourhood Toolkit, an online resource to help build saf-er communities and prohibit crime from taking place.

“Criminals don’t tend to like being in places where there are people do-ing pro-social things,” said Michael Justinich, business analyst with CPO.

“Getting to know your neighbours, building community spirit helps pre-vent crime.”

The toolkit offers tips and tricks to help residents build a sense of com-munity where they live, how to get involved in their area and resources available.

One community in east Ottawa was complaining about speeding on their crescent, said Justinich, so the coun-cillor went out and spoke with every resident on that street.

“People aren’t driving from West-boro to speed on a crescent in Or-leans,” he said. “Everyone complains about speeding, well, talk to your neighbours.”

A $59-million expansion of the O-Train system was approved by city council on June 22.

The changes will add six new trains to the north-south line to increase the fre-quency of service from 15 minutes to eight minutes. The money will also go towards constructing two passing track.

Since being introduced in 2001, the O-Train has almost reached its ridership ca-pacity. Increasing the ridership capacity of

the trains is aimed at easing the pressure on the bus system during construction of the city’s east-west light-rail transit (LRT) line, which is expected to begin in 2013.

Increasing the O-Train’s level of service will make the train the fastest commute option for a number of riders, includ-ing those who travel from the south end through the core.

Transit commission chair Diane Holm-es has also asked city staff to look into the costs of extending the O-Train line south to Leitrim. The transit commission will have a look at that report in the fall.

O-Train service expansion gets the go-ahead

A 21-year-old video production student has set up shop near Kanata with his new video production company thanks to The Ottawa Centre for Regional Innovation’s summer company program.

Charlie Hoppner, a Stittsville native and University of Toronto student, cre-

ated Riviera Media, a video production company located in Carp.

“I’ve always had a pretty big interest in doing video production,” said Hoppner. “I’m taking fi lm right now at U of T. I have a real passion or fi lm, video, music, sort of all aspects of fi lm production.”

OCRI is the city’s economic develop-ment agency. The province-wide pro-gram, an initiative of the Ministry of

Economic Development and Trade is expected to help young entrepreneurs develop and execute a successful business venture over the sum-mer months.

Participants are eligible for up to $3,000 to ease startup expenses including $1,500 awarded upon the successful completion of the program and return to school.

“I can really learn a lot more of the business aspects and how to organize a company around vid-eo production,” said Hoppner. “I thought it would be a good thing to do for the summer.”

Hoppner had to present OCRI with a business plan for Riviera Media and his was one of 29 Ottawa-area applications chosen for the summer pro-gram.

“All of these students possess busi-ness skills and a personal commitment that set an excellent example for entre-preneurs of all ages,” Stephen Daze, executive director of entrepreneurship and innovation at OCRI said in a press release. “They clearly demonstrate the vision and dedication required to oper-ate a successful company.”

Hoppner has created videos for Blome-ley Communications Inc., and Rebel

Magazine. “You can really get the total experi-

ence with video I fi nd. I’ve al-ways loved the way it brings together all the different arts,” said Hoppner. “I think there’s a real advantage to that over text based media. It’s a more interac-tive experience, more entertain-ing. Rather than having to read things online people can sit back and watch what the website’s about.

“I think that with the way tech-nology is going that’s going to be the way a lot more online content is going to be focused. It’s really exciting to be working in.”

Hoppner said he will offer a variety of video services, from corporate, to music and others.

“I am willing to do whatever people come to me with because I’m always up for new challenges,” he said.

“I think any sort of video is a learning experience. To be able to do a breadth of different stuff is a really positive thing.

“Being able to work on something that I have a passion for, it’s really a great ex-perience.”

YOUTH ISSUES, from 11

High-risk youth who end up in the justice system may end up in the Ottawa Carleton Youth Di-version Program (OCYDP).

The program is intended to keep youth out of court and de-tention centres; instead they are assigned measures and sanc-tions appropriate to the crime committed.

“There’s the notion that it’s just a slap on the wrist, it’s not,” said Tom Scholberg, manager with OCYPD. “They can still be held accountable outside the

court system.”If the youth doesn’t complete

the sanctions given, then he or she is put back into the court system.

“The whole point of our pro-gram is that we’re targeting the right kids,” said Scholberg. “The services are to keep kids from re-offending.”

The panel stressed the im-portance of people take advan-tage of the resources offered to them.

“We need to make sure people know the resources available,” said Justinich.

Visit Pinhey’s Point Historic Site in Dunrobin and take a step back in time.

Home to one of the oldest houses in Ottawa, the Pinhey estate called Horaceville stands almost exactly as it did when it was built in the early 1800s, down to some original wallpaper and wood trimming.

Historians have tried to main-tain the house as close to the original design as possible.

“Some people come hoping for it to look set up, but it isn’t, said Melissa Lansing, the education and interpretation program of-fi cer at Pinhey’s Point. “It makes the story a lot more tangible, and it makes people ask ques-tions about the family who lived there.”

Hamnett Pinhey was an Eng-lish merchant who came to Canada to fi nd a better life for his family – and to skip up a few rungs on the social ladder.

In 1820, Pinhey began to build a log cabin, constructing addi-

tions until it became the house that stands today. Horaceville was completed in the 1840s af-ter several add-ons, which can be seen from the river by the increasing window size as time went on.

“People have been visiting here for ages,” Lansing said. “Visitors come and tell stories about when they used to visit the Pinhey family.”

Ruth Pinhey was the last sur-viving family member to live in the house, and she passed away in 1971. She was quite the char-acter, Lansing said, breeding dogs and selling turkeys.

From May through September, the house is open to the public as a free museum.

The 36 hectares of property along the water offer space to hike, take picnics and play, as well as a dock for boats to anchor on.

On weekends, heritage-clothed staff offer guided tours and will take visitors to the nearby St. Mary’s Church where some of the Pinhey family is buried.

Lansing said that all of these features are what make the site unique.

“Pinhey’s Point is not just a park and it’s not just a museum,” she said. “It’s both.”

Summer programming in-cludes all sorts of activities for kids and families.

The Wonderkids program is for preschoolers who want to get involved with nature, and runs every Thursday in July.

For kids a little older, between eight and 12, the Junior Natural-ist Club teaches members about the plants and animals around them, running every Saturday in July.

Pinhey’s Point’s largest event of the year is Riverfest on Au-gust 14, celebrating the history and traditions of the Ottawa River; a Canadian history lesson

and family fun day all in one.Lansing said that she hopes to

have longtime visitors return-ing for events, but also that new families and history enthusiasts will visit for the fi rst time.

“A lot of people don’t know that we’re here,” she said. “We’re like a hidden gem.”

To learn more about Pinhey’s Point or to plan a visit, go to www.pinheyspoint.ca.

The site provides a link to the City of Ottawa website where all summer programming is listed.

The city’s coolest cats man-aged to raise top dollar for the Ottawa Humane Society earlier this month.

More than 150 guests and 17 “top dogs” and “cool cats” turned out and raised $75,000 during the charity’s fi rst bail or jail-type fundraiser as part of the groundbreaking campaign.

“We were just blown away by the response,” said Bruce Roney, the executive director of the OHS.

Even before the June 16 event, the groundbreaking campaign had garnered 85 per cent of the OHS goal of $9.5 million, ac-cording to Roney.

The June 17 event called on pet lovers across the city to do time in a dog cage trying to raise money.

Knoxdale-Merivale Coun. Keith Egli had managed to raise $1,200 part way through the night.

“This is a great event and the new facility is going to really benefi t the ward,” he said.

Dave Smythe, who said he was jailed for stealing food from his chocolate lab truffl es, managed to make his goal and

was sprung from the joint.Smythe got involved because

he had done some of the plumb-ing for the OHS and was asked to participate.

“It’s a chance for people to see the new facility before we move the animals in,” Roney said.

Aside from the pledges, some of the funds came from a silent auction — which included do-nated items such as a Ben Ba-belowsky print and a round of

golf at Mont Tremblant. The animals will all be moved

into the new facility at 245 West Hunt Club Road on June 24.

The building is more than three times the size of the old-er Champagne Avenue facility. Roney said the air quality is also largely improved, nearing that of hospitals.

The animals will be housed in glass enclosures — some-thing Roney said will help re-duce their anxiety.

CITY OF OTTAWA

Two Bruce Timmermans Cy-cling awards were presented this summer by Coun. Mari-anne Wilkinson, chair of Otta-wa’s transportation committee, to Kathleen Wilker of the West Wellington BIA and the Pathway Patrol volunteer organization.

His excellency, ambassador Wilhelmus Geerts of the very bike-friendly Kingdom of the Netherlands, opened the cer-emony on May 31. Paul Dewar, MP for Ottawa-Centre, also at-tended.

“My sincere thanks, on behalf of the City of Ottawa, to the in-spiring award recipients,” said Coun. Wilkinson. “Congratulat-ing them on their achievements is a wonderful way to end this year’s Bike to Work month.

“Let’s make every month a Bike to Work month.”

The 2010 Bruce Timmermans Individual Award was presented to Kathleen Wilker, a founder of a new advocates group called Hintonburg Cycling Champi-ons.

As its co-chair, she is spear-heading efforts to identify cy-

cling champions in neighbour-hood schools, to organize safe cycling events for kids, and to put on a bike parade in Hinton-burg.

The award for an organization went for the second time to Path-way Patrol.

Since 1997, volunteers have spent thousands of hours keep-ing Ottawa’s pathways safe and clean.

During their patrols, they ad-dress pathway users, offering them maps, pamphlets and guid-ance.

They also encourage the wear-ing of helmets and pathway eti-quette.

Bruce Timmermans was a long-time cycling educator and advocate, an active member of the Ottawa Bicycle Club and a founding member of Citizens for Safe Cycling.

His legacy lives on through the awards program, created by the City of Ottawa to recognize outstanding individuals and or-ganizations encouraging others to cycle.

The program is an important part of Ottawa’s TravelWise campaign.

Pinhey’s Point

Looking for a new way to spend Canada Day with the family?

Spend the day outdoors away from the downtown crowds and relax this year at Pinhey’s Point.

Just one day celebrating Canadian heritage along the banks of the Otta-wa River and you won’t want to head back to 2011.

Forget your worries and let the kids explore the grounds while you relax with a picnic or get in the spirit and join in on the fun. Everyone can enjoy a holiday away from work and, in this case, away from the 21st century.

“It’s all about the experience,” said museum education and interpreta-tion offi cer, Melissa Lansing. “Domin-ion Day is about being there, playing games and enjoying time with your family; you’re not going to forget that.”

How could you forget anything about this July 1st celebration? With live musical entertainment, Victo-rian games, wagon rides and even a petting zoo, the family will want to go back every year.

ENTERTAINMENT

Freshwater Trade will be perform-ing throughout the day from 11:30 a.m. to 4 p.m.

For the few who haven’t heard the trio perform, they will excite with original and traditional tunes that refl ect the heritage and history of the Great Lakes region.

Outdoor activities and traditional

Victorian games will have the whole family competing in some good old-fashioned fun.

It’s time to empty out those jute bags and polish up your mallet as po-tato sack races and croquet will get everyone involved in some friendly competition.

More highlights of the day include wagon rides and a petting zoo from Pinto Valley Ranch.

So pack a picnic or en-joy a delicious barbeque and spend the day with family and friends.

For a more hands-on experience you can volunteer for the event by contacting Daniele Hamonic at [email protected] or 613-580-2424 ext. 19042.

Canada Day celebrations at Pin-hey’s Point, 270 Pinhey’s Point Rd., Dunrobin, will be from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m.

The cost is $6 per person, $10 per pair, and $16 per family, with addition-al cost for food and refreshments.

For more information about this or any of the museum’s other summer events, call 613-832-4347 or visit www.ottawa.ca/museums.

The outgoing president and chief executive of-fi cer of the Royal Ottawa Foundation for Mental Health says he is leaving the organization proud for having been able turn mental health care from one issue that was not talked about to one that right now is a front page issue.

Tim Kluke, is leaving Royal Ottawa Foundation for Mental health to join the Ottawa Hospital Foun-dation to serve as president and CEO effective July 18. His appointment was announced at the Ottawa Hospital Foundation annual general meeting held on June 21.

“I am thrilled and it is indeed a privilege to have been offered the position to lead the foundation,” Kluke said.

He called the appointment a wonderful opportu-nity for him to build on what is now becoming a tra-dition of success at the Ottawa Hospital in terms of inspiring community for philanthropy to support quality health care and research right here in Ot-tawa.

“What I look forward to do is to present a col-laborative model with the community where we understanding what our donors interests are and march those up with the needs of the hospital in terms of achieving the best health care in Ottawa,” he said.

Thanks to the remarkable generosity of citizens and corporations in Ottawa, the Ottawa Hospital Foundation celebrated another record year in fund-raising achievements with donations resulting in more than $30million in revenues.

“I am absolutely committed to success and repre-senting the Ottawa Hospital and the Foundation in a professional manner and really excited with the opportunity to be a part of such an important insti-tution for all of us,” Kluke said.

For the past eight years at Royal Ottawa Founda-tion for Mental Health, Kluke has been credited for running impressive, high profi le fundraising and awareness campaigns.

“They are loosing me as a fundraiser but I will always be a mental health advocate,” he promised.

Kluke is replacing retiring Susan Doyle who has served the foundation since its inception a decade ago.

The board recognized Doyle for her leadership and dedication throughout her fundraising initia-tives that raised some $220 million net during her tenure.

Though thrilled to join the Ottawa Hospital foun-dation, Kluke expressed sadness that he was living his hard working team at the Royal Ottawa Founda-tion for Mental Health.

A new Ottawa landmark will “preserve, display and illumi-nate” Ottawa’s history, accord-ing to Mayor Jim Watson, who was on hand to offi cially open the new City of Ottawa Cen-tral Archives and Ottawa Pub-lic Library Materials Centre on June 27.

Heritage and library sup-porters gathered to show off the state-of-the-art facility, which will bring both archives and library distribtion servic-es under the same roof for the fi rst time.

That union was “rocky” at fi rst, said Barrhaven council-lor and library board chair Jan Harder, but it has become a good marriage, she said.

The city put up half the money for the $40-million proj-ect, which still awaits an of-fi cial commemorative name, with the balance coming from the province. The facility is LEED-silver certifi ed, mean-ing it meets strict criteria of environmental sustainability.

The location at 100 Tallwood Dr. in Centrepointe is right in the geographic centre of the

city, Harder said. The location will make it easier for the Otta-wa Public Library to move the 70 tonnes of material it trans-fers to its 33 branches (and two bookmobiles) each week. The library catalogues and pro-cesses 220,000 items each year.

The city investigated 44 sites before choosing the fi nal loca-tion off Woodfroofe Avenue.

Dignitaries at the event shared a few laughs over their swapped roles regarding the project: Ottawa West-Nepean MPP Bob Chiarelli was mayor of Ottawa when the push for a new archive began, but attend-ed the opening as provincial infrastructure minister.

Watson, meanwhile, had attended the October 2010 groundbreaking in that same role.

A bright yellow wall and striking piece of public art beckon visitors to visit the building. One of the goals of the project is to introduce more residents to the work of the archives, Watson said.

It should become a “hub of culture and learning,” added College Coun. Rick Chiarelli.

With that in mind, the city invites residents to visit dur-

ing an open house on July 9 from noon to 4 p.m.

In addition to tours of the building, visitors can meet artist Don Maynard, who de-signed the public art piece, titled Archive.

Workshops on geneology and creating clay tablets, as well as other activities, will also be of-fered.

The archive is open to visi-tors and researchers every day. Visit ottawa.ca/archives for more information.

TREES ONTARIO

The picturesque village of Dunrobin lies in a valley north-west of Ottawa.

The area is covered with for-ests and farms dating from the early 1800’s along with streams and the escarpment that sepa-rates it from the Ottawa River.

Residents of Dunrobin think they live in paradise – a green oasis in the Ottawa River valley.

However, many people worry that their paradise is being threatened by the rapidly grow-ing urban sprawl of metropoli-tan Ottawa and in particular the growth of nearby Kanata.

What were once areas of beautiful trees are now rural subdivisions.

The colour green is being re-placed by concrete grey and as-phalt black.

Even with the fi ve-year mora-torium on further development in the area, residents are con-cerned about what the future may hold.

Attendance at the local com-munity association meetings is growing as residents in the area take a more active interest in protecting the environment and the place that they for genera-tions have called home.

Jessie Marshall is one such concerned resident and she is doing something different to en-sure Dunrobin remains beauti-ful and green.

After purchasing her 47-hect-are property in 1999, Marshall embarked on an aggressive tree planting effort to create a lush green forest wall of resistance against the expanding urban sprawl.

In the early 1800’s her land was given to James Dent Weath-erley – a retired captain in the British army – in recognition of his service to his country.

Marshall can imagine how breath-taking her property must have looked.

She and her husband live in the stone house built on the property in 1872. They have gone to great lengths to artfully restore and preserve it.

“We place a great deal of im-portance on the heritage des-ignation on the house and our property,” said Marshall. “We feel like caretakers and believe it is our duty to maintain and enhance the property as best we can out of respect for its histori-cal signifi cance and richness. Restoring the stone house and planting lots of trees are two great ways to do that.”

Eight years ago Marshall started by planting 2,200 trees in three rows running along the

roads that border the property. They offer privacy and provide a sound barrier from passing cars … not to mention the natu-ral beauty.

“My dad who lives with us did some research on the programs and incentives for landowners interested in planting trees,” said Marshall. “I had never done a tree planting on this scale so needed some guidance.”

His research pointed her in the direction of Dan Cooper from the Rideau Valley Conservation Authority who along with Brian Anderson of the Mississippi Valley Conservation Authority and David Barkley, the forestry manager at the City of Ottawa, worked with Marshall to help her achieve her tree planting goals.

Following the success of her fi rst planting, Marshall planted 7,000 more trees near the front lawn of the property.

This area is uneven and has a creek running through it that is fairly large during the annual spring run-off. It is land that is only suitable for trees.

“Every time I wanted to plant more trees, I would call Dan who helped fi nd the funding, de-velop the planting plan, secure the seedlings and assist with the plant. Dan and the entire team were so great to work with and the funding and support made it so easy and affordable,” said Marshall.

It was shortly after this sec-ond planting that the Ontario government introduced the 50 million tree program that pro-vides incentives and support to landowners looking to plant trees with the goal of planting 50 million trees in the province by 2020.

The program is managed by Trees Ontario (www.treeson-tario.ca) who works with local conservation authorities, stew-ardship councils, First Nations communities and forestry ex-perts as part of the largest not-for-profi t tree planting partner-ship in North America.

When Marshall called Cooper again in 2010 with another large planting request, he told her she would qualify for the funding and support provided through the 50 million tree program which meant all aspects of the tree planting process would be taken care of at a cost of only $0.15 per tree.

“Seeing how little each tree was going to cost and how much support we were going to get from Dan and his team, it made it very easy to decide on planting an entire corner of our property with close to 8,000

trees. What a beautiful forest it is going to be…like back in the days of Captain Weatherley,” added Marshall.

And, she also knows her tree planting is a great way to keep Dunrobin green. It is an exam-ple of how others who fear their town is on the verge of being swallowed up by urban sprawl can preserve the green para-dise.

“Having grown up in Ottawa, I have seen Ottawa’s growth and expansion fi rst hand. Residents here and in neighbouring com-munities have every right to be concerned. Here is something we can do,” said Marshall.

“We must all work together to do whatever we can to protect what we believe is most precious to us. By planting over 17,000 trees, I am trying to do my part for Dunrobin,” added Marshall.

Looking ahead, she plans to attend local community meet-ings more regularly and to share her tree planting experi-ences with other people in the hope they follow suit. “If we all pitch in and plant more trees, we can make Dunrobin so beau-tiful, people won’t want to ruin it with any development,” added Marshall.

That might very well be their best way to ensure Dunrobin

doesn’t become a paradise lost.“I would like to commend Jes-

sie Marshall for her efforts to re-green the province and to cel-ebrate and enhance the heritage of their home and property,” said Linda Jeffrey, Minister of Natural Resources. “I encour-age others to get involved with the 50 million tree program to help fi ght climate change and protect Ontario’s biodiversity.”

A group of concerned heritage advo-cates are calling on the city to fi x its bro-ken commemorative naming policy.

In the wake of several recent contro-versies, the city’s arts, heritage and cul-ture advisory committee is asking city council to overhaul the process it uses to choose who to honour by naming a road, park or building after a person.

Brian Barrett is one of a dozen mem-bers of the public who sit on the com-mittee to advise city councillors and staff about issues related to the area of

their expertise. He started to become concerned about how the city was decid-ing which names to apply to city facili-ties last year, when the issue of renam-ing Wellington Street came up.

With that topic set to come back to city hall this fall, and in the wake of a controversial road renaming in Bells Corners and an outcry over a proposed name for the city archives, Barrett de-cided to lead the charge.

“All of us on the committee feel very strongly that city staff and council and have ignored the policy that they al-ready have,” Barrett said. “It’s not that they don’t have a policy, it’s just that it’s

Group pushes for overhaul of city’s naming policynot enforced and it can be wiped away at the whim of a councillor.”

College Coun. Rick Chiarelli said he went around the naming policy for Lloyd Francis Boulevard in order to do more public consultation. The policy calls for 60 days, while the councillor drew the process out for about a year.

If the policy was enforced consistent-ly, there wouldn’t be much of a prob-lem, Barrett said. The motion passed by the advisory committee recommends strengthening the enforcement of the existing policy, as well as some changes that would make the naming process more robust.

Enforcement of the existing policy is something John Heney pleaded the ad-visory committee to push for.

Heney, the president of Friends of the City of Ottawa Archives, waited more than a year to hear back after he suggested a name for the new archives building, which was eventually reject-ed, and had a diffi cult time getting his hands on a copy of the naming policy itself. The document is not posted on the city’s website.

“If you don’t follow your own pro-cedures, your policy means nothing,” Heney said to the arts, heritage and culture advisory committee during its June 20 meeting.

The committee also had a few recom-mendations to improve the way streets, buildings and parks are named.

Part of the issue is that the commem-orative naming committee does not in-clude members of the public, nor any history or heritage experts, Barrett said. The advisory committee would like to see heritage experts, the city archivist, representative from the Al-gonquins of Ontario and others added to the panel.

Names shouldn’t simply be “some-thing thrown up on a street sign,” Bar-rett said, they should mean something.

Developers’ tendency to name new streets after family members or themes is particularly grating to Barrett.

“There is enough history in this country that we don’t have to name our streets after wine. We’re not a wine-growing region – there is no connec-tion to that,” Barrett said. “There is enough history in this country to be able to choose historic names.”

Barrett said that too often, we forget the ceremonial aspect of heritage.

“I think this just reinforces our his-tory and help children and adults alike understand where we’re coming from

and honour the people that we need to honour.”

The commemorative naming process could also be an opportunity to educate residents about local history, Barrett said. He suggested creating a list of possible names of historical signifi -cance that could be referred to when the city needs to name something. But

a database would also serve as a reposi-tory of information about the history behind the name of a street or build-ing.

Another issue is the city’s practice of naming things after living people, something that groups such as the Ontario Geographical Names Board an the Historic Sites and Monuments Board of Canada advise against.

Barrett used a recent example to il-lustrate the risk.

“It’s dangerous because … what hap-pens if you named a park or some oth-er building after the infamous colonel (Russell Williams),” Barrett said, refer-ring to the Ottawa military pilot who was convicted of sexual assault and murder in 2010. “He was a model armed forces personnel, and then we fi nd out he is a serial killer.”

Advisory committee motions are just advice, but Barrett hopes a member of the city’s community and protective services, such as chair Mark Taylor, will push for the change at city hall.

Taylor, the councillor for Bay Ward, said there are growing concerns at city hall surrounding how municipal facili-ties are named.

“I don’t think we should be stepping around our policy,” he said, pointing to recent controversies over the nam-ing of the city archives building and renaming Robertson Road in Bells Cor-ners, which is now called Lloyd Fran-

“I think this just reinforces our history and help children and adults alike understand where we’re coming from and honour the people that we need to honour.”Brian Barrett, committee member

Kanata-based band Open Sky is set to rock the stage at the Canada Day in Kanata event at Walter Baker Park.

The musical group, which consists of Mike Boucher, lead vocals and guitar, Jared Bouch-er, vocals and bass, Nathan Boucher, on drums and vocals and Jonathan Felske on lead guitar, is looking forward to the open-air concert on July 1.

“We’ve always enjoyed play-ing in front of a large crowd,” said Nathan.

“Anytime we get a chance to get up on stage and do our thing, it’s always a lot of fun.”

He said having the chance to play the same show as Canadian Juno-award winning band Sloan is exciting.

“The opportunity to open for a band such a Sloan is great, it’s huge for us.”

The three Boucher brothers and Felske have been playing together for about 10 years, said Nathan, adding they’re looking forward to meeting the crowds at the event.

“We try to include the audi-ence as much as possible,” he said.

“We’d love for people to come by and meet us afterwards.”

The rock band played the main stage at Kanata’s Canada Day event a few years back and the guys, who all live in Glen Cairn, are looking forward to playing some new material.

“It’s going to be a great time,” said Nathan.

“We like to have a lot of fun with our shows.”

Open Sky will take to the Ur-bandale stage around 6 p.m.

ALBUM RELEASE

Open Sky is hosting an album release party the day before Canada Day at the Community Bible Church in Stittsville.

It will be the band’s fi rst full-length album.

“We’ve been working on this album over the last year and a half,” said Nathan.

“We’ve been working on it so hard and so long it’s so reward-ing.”

The album, titled Until The Sun Comes Out Again, has a

host of new material and old fa-vourites, said Nathan.

The event will take place at the Community Bible Church,

located at 1600 Main Street, on Thursday, June 30, starting at 7 p.m.

The album will also be avail-

able at the band’s booth on Can-ada Day.

“It’s a really exciting time for us,” said Nathan.

The opening of the Library and Ar-chives Canada’s Nitrate Film Preserva-tion Centre on June 21 proved the old adage that a picture is worth a thou-sand words.

The new $14.7-million building on the government’s Shirley’s Bay campus will house 5,575 reels fi lm made of cel-lulose nitrate, dating back to 1912.

Some of the famous titles include: Back to God’s Country (1919) and Churchill’s Island — the fi rst Canadian fi lm to win an Oscar (1941).

The facility also boasts 600,000 nitrate photograph negatives.

Since 1973 the fi lms and photos were stored at the former Rockcliffe Air Base, but the facility wasn’t up to the fi re safe-ty code and didn’t meet standards for proper preservation.

Daniel Caron, deputy head and li-brary archivist of Canada, said that there is room for the collection to grow by as much as 25 per cent.

“We know that no one is producing things on that kind of fi lm anymore, but people may fi nd old photos in their attic and we want to have somewhere to store them,” he said.

The fi lm and negatives are stored in vaults that are kept at a constant 2 C. The vaults feature a kind of cubby-hole style layout out.

“In between the shelves is also insu-lated to prevent fi re,” said Mario Gas-peritti, manager of strategic accom-modation for Library and Archives Canada.

The vaults are also fi tted with sprin-klers and a blow out panel due to the highly combustible nature of nitrate fi lm.

Each vault is constantly monitored and staff can look at the readings to make sure the airfl ow and tempera-tures remain constant.

The walls are insulation and there is a lot of poured concrete and synthetic rubber fl oors—something Gasperitti said saved money and helped to ensure dust wasn’t fl ying around damaging the collection.

The facility also features a green roof, which helps it to be energy effi cient and stay cool.

The hallway outside the vault is 10 C to make a smooth transition to viewing

rooms.Requested materials are shipped to

the Library and Archives Canada build-ing on Wellington Street, but it is not common practice due to the volatile na-ture of the material and possible dam-age to the negatives and fi lm.

Bob McIntosh, director general with the archives care of collection branch, said that staff members are aggressive-ly digitizing the most popular types of images.

“Our website gets a lot of traffi c,” Mc-Intosh said, adding military images are very popular.

Scanning technology also provides hope to negatives that were previously thought lost, allowing staff to pull detail from some fi lm that has deteriorated.

WEST OTTAWA WARRIORS

The West Ottawa Warriors captured gold in the 2011 Ottawa Icebreaker Soccer Tournament (boys under 17) held in Ot-tawa from June 4 to 5.

The tournament didn’t start off well for the Warriors, with the West Ottawa team fi nishing last in their pool during the fi rst day of the tournament with a 2-2 record.

The Warriors still had a chance to get to the fi nal, but now had to win three con-secutive games against higher seeded and as a result better rested teams the next day.

On Sunday, June 5, the Warriors went to work and won their fi rst game 2-0 against the Cataraqui Clippers with some beauti-ful possession soccer.

The Warrior collected two more wins,

defeating the Ottawa Royals 3-0 and the Carleton Place Soccer Club 1-0 in the semi-fi nal.

In the fi nal, Cumberland United came at the Warriors with an energetic initial onslaught which the Warriors were able to withstand.

Then, the Warriors settled into their possession game, patiently created chanc-es, built momentum and 15 minutes before the end were rewarded with the fi nal 1-0 score.

The Warriors continued to control the ball and did not allow Cumberland back in the game. After the whistle, the referee complemented the Warriors for their fair play and sportsmanship.

During the tournament, the Warriors showed a great defensive team effort and recorded seven shutouts in eight games.
