By: Sergeant Pete Nicholson, 14 Wing PhotojournalistWednesday, May 11, 2011 was McHappy Day which is an annual event at

McDonald’s restaurants, where a percentage of the day’s sales go to charity. The Greenwood McDonalds’ donates one dollar of every coffee, Big Mac and Happy Meal to charity. From all the money raised, fi fty percent goes to Ronald McDonald House in Halifax and fi fty percent goes to Camp Brigadoon.

Acting 14 Wing Commander, Lieutenant Colonel Steve Chouinard, Chief

Warrant Offi cer Ron Kinsman and Captain Mike Sampson assisted the staff in taking and fi lling food and drink orders. This is a rare opportunity for the rank and fi le of 14 Wing to have their Command staff serve them; it’s not often that a lower rank can give an order to the Commanding Offi cer!

Store Manager Sherry Connors, who has worked at this store since 1988, stated “I would like to thank 14 Wing for their continued support throughout the year!”

The new arena/curling complex in Greenwood will be located near the 14 Wing CANEX/Aviation Museum and aircraft display area. The location is bounded by Zeke’s Brook to the north, the MQ’s of Maple Street to the south, Ward Road to the east and Bowlby Park Drive to the west. The site is on DND lands contained within the property boundary of 14 Wing proper.

The group working toward building this new facility, the Arena/Curling Partnership Project (ACPP Committee) was formed in 2009 when 14 Wing Greenwood (Department of National Defence DND), was in the process of planning to construct a new arena to replace its existing obsolete rink currently located on base. In considering a new facility, it

approached various community groups and local governments to partner on the project and include a second ice surface as part of the plan. In addition to DND, participating organizations include: Province of Nova Scotia; Municipality of the County of Kings; Village of Kingston; Village of Greenwood; Western Kings Arena Association; Greenwood Curling Club and Kings Regional Development Agency.

The Committee investigated various options for moving the project forward, and in December of 2010, CBCL Limited was engaged to evaluate two potential sites to be considered for a potential partnered facility. Both sites, owned by DND, were reviewed and the commissioned report recommended the chosen site. Base Commander Colonel Bill Seymour approved the study’s recommendation and the ACPP committee accepted the proposed site at the April 5, 2011 meeting.

Funding will continue to be sought and confi rmed as plans continue for targeted construction in the 2015/16 timeframe.

People volunteer for a wide variety of reasons, especially wanting to help others, but it’s also OK to want some benefi ts for yourself from volunteering.

Some people are uncomfortable with the notion that a volunteer “benefi ts” from doing volunteer work. There is

a long tradition of seeing volunteering as a form of charity, based on altruism and selfl essness. The best volunteering does involve the desire to serve others, but this does not exclude other motivations, as well.

Instead of considering volunteering as something you do for people who are not as fortunate as yourself, begin to think of it as an exchange.

Consider that most people fi nd themselves in need at some point in their

lives. So today you may be the person with the ability to help, but tomorrow you may be the recipient of someone else’s volunteer effort. Even now you might be on both sides of the service cycle: maybe you are a tutor for someone who can’t read, while last month the volunteer ambulance corps rushed you to the emergency room. Volunteering also includes “self-help.” So if you are active in your neighbourhood crime

watch, your home is protected while you protect your neighbours’ homes, too. Adding your effort to the work of others makes everyone’s lives better.

Your MotivationsThink about how much

you receive when you give and consider why you want to volunteer. You may have several different reasons. Here are just a few of the many possible motivations identifi ed by other volunteers: • to feel needed • to share a skill • to get to know a com-

munity • to demonstrate commit-

ment to a cause/belief • to gain leadership skills • to act out a fantasy • to do your civic duty • because of pressure from

a friend or relative • satisfaction from accom-

plishment • to keep busy • for recognition • to repay a debt • to donate your profes-

sional skills • because there is no one

else to do it • to have an impact • to learn something new • for freedom of schedule • to help a friend or relative • for escape

• to become an “insider” • guilt • to be challenged • to be a watchdog • to feel proud • to make new friends • to explore a career • to help someone • as therapy • to do something different

from your job • for fun! • for religious reasons • to earn academic credit • to keep skills alive • because an agency is

geographically close • to have an excuse to do

what you love • to be able to criticize • to assure progress • to feel good • to be part of a team • to gain status • because you were asked • to test yourself • to build your resume • to be an agent of change • because of personal expe-

rience with the problem, illness, or cause

• to stand up and be counted You will probably have

some special reasons of your own. Remember that the motivations you have to select the place to offer your services may not be the reasons why you stay. Once you’re on

the volunteer job, you will continue to serve as long as you feel that your efforts are accomplishing something, that your talents are appreciated, and that you make a difference. And if you also like the people with whom you work, so much the better!

As long as you are truly serving through your volunteer work, isn’t it wonderful that such an exchange occurs? In fact, it tends to strengthen your commitment to volunteering when you can see the benefi ts to both the recipient of your efforts and to yourself. And it is much more comfortable than “charity” because it upholds the self-esteem of those with whom you volunteer.

By Master Corporal Vick Finlayson

A team of technicians from 8 Wing Trenton, in conjunction with technicians from 14 Wing, have been working steadily since November of 2010 on the installation of the AN-TPN-501 Quad Radar, or “Quad,”! The radar has been fl ight checked and is currently in service at 14 Wing Greenwood.

The Quad has been utilized, at one point of time or another, at every Air Traffi c Control Unit in Canada since its inception in the 1950’s. It has proven to be a reliable piece of equipment, employed on countless occasions over its illustrious history providing positive control to pilots and their aircraft in less than ideal weather conditions.

Mr. George Davis has been working with the Quad for over forty years, both as a member of the Canadian Forces and as a civilian contractor. Upon completion of its installation in Greenwood, George will be retiring, leaving behind a lifetime of experience and expertise.

This radar will not be a permanent fixture at 14 Wing but rather an essential approach aid necessary to ensure a seamless transition to the scheduled implementation of the PAR 2000. The PAR 2000 is the latest development

of the Precision Approach Navigational Aid, bringing in a digital feature. In order to bring this newer version on line the system currently employed at 14 Wing, the AN/FPN 503, had to be de-commissioned and removed from its current location.

Training for the Radar Controllers on the new PAR 2000 will take place in Van Nuys, California scheduled for May 2011. A portion of the PAR controllers currently employed at 14 Wing will attend this training scheduled to take place over a period of approximately two weeks. They in turn will train the remaining controllers upon their return to the unit.

The Quad Radar has not been utilized in Greenwood for several years and training current PAR controllers to

New Updated Radar for 14 Wing Greenwoodthe systems intricacies has been challenging. The main reason for this challenge is a lack of qualifi ed controllers at the unit level with the required background to ensure adequate knowledge is passed on. Warrant Offi cer (WO) Marvin Williams is one such individual. With over twenty fi ve years experience as a PAR controller, WO Williams has been working with the Quad intermittently for the better part of his military career and has passed on a great deal of his in-depth knowledge of the system to today’s PAR controllers.

Upon its implementation this coming summer, the PAR 2000 will continue the legacy of providing fi rst rate Air Traffi c Control services just as its predecessor a generation earlier did.

By Captain KapralikThe National Flight Safety Program recognizes signifi cant

contributions made by individuals, teams and organizations that prevent the accidental loss of aviation resources. This recognition is bestowed through a national awards program. One of these awards is the For Professionalism Award, which recognizes acts that refl ect a superior professional attitude that either reduced the severity or averted an aircraft accident or serious incident. Recipients of this award have demonstrated superior skill in identifying and rectifying a significant Flight Safety hazard in very diffi cult circumstances. 14 Air Maintenance Squadron (AMS) is honoured to have one such individual, Private (Pte) David Wright, who received this esteemed national For Professionalism Award. The award was presented by Lieutenant-Colonel Tom Flynn, the Commanding Offi cer of 14 AMS, at the Honours and Award Parade in April.

While Pte Wright was carrying out an On-the-Job Training After-Flight Check on aircraft CP140104, he discovered two crossed control cables in the left hand wing inboard trailing edge area. His meticulous attention to detail was instrumental in his fi nding the left hand aileron trim cable and emergency

uplock release cable incorrectly routed and chafi ng against each other, thus inhibiting the smooth action of both systems. He immediately alerted his supervisor, who then informed the senior chain of command and a Flight Safety was raised.

Through a detailed inspection of both the aileron trim and emergency landing gear lowering systems, it was determined that no physical damage was evident; however, if left undetected the tension and chafi ng of the crossed cables would have become severe enough to cause a complete cable/fl ight control failure and/or to interfere with the safe lowering of the main landing gear in an emergency situation. It was concluded through a search of the Automated Data Aircraft Maintenance (ADAM) system that the cables had been in this condition for quite some time and the aircraft had fl own many times since the last recorded maintenance in this area on these systems.

Thanks to Pte Wright’s outstanding attention to detail a potentially catastrophic fl ight safety incident was averted. For displaying the professionalism and true airmanship traits of a seasoned Aviation Technician well beyond his experience level, Pte Wright is highly deserving of the For Professionalism Award. His exemplary actions serve as an inspiration to his peers and supervisors alike.

Hopefully by the time this goes to print, our weather will have changed. Can’t believe this amount of rain...and it has been so cold. I can’ t imagine there have been many brave souls out on the golf course

this past week. THINGS WILL CHANGE...I think!

On Mother’s Day the Ladies held their Get-acquainted Tournament and there were 15 ladies who showed up and played 9 holes. Pretty

good turn out considering it was Mother’s Day. The ladies were treated to lunch and some cake…nice treat. The winners of the day were: B. Saltzman, K. Gelinas and D. Sampson: 2nd: S. Adams, C. Litsas and P. Wilson: 3rd: S. Johnson, T. Stephan and S. O’Connor. Thanks to all who came out and thanks to Donna H. for organizing this one. Next week I will have the results of the Ladies Early Bird tournament.

There was another Hole in One on the course, Pat Grist aced the 3rd hole and witnessing the shot were Scottie Cooper and Steve Belanger. Congratulations Pat.

T h e M e n ’s O p e n i n g Tournament will be June 5th (Sunday) starting at 1:00 p.m. The cost is $20 per person with skins extra. The meal is included in the price and the cut off date for the tournament is June 1st. The sign up sheet is on the bulletin board, so

get your name down for this opening tournament.

Opening date for the kitchen is May 20th. Take some one out for a round of golf and treat them to lunch at the course.

The Founders Mixed Tournament is the weekend of May 28-29, so if you haven’t sent your entry in for this one, don’t wait too long. Info is on the website for the golf course or call Betty Saltzman.

Don’t forget that Men’s Night and Ladies’ Night start on May 17 and 18 and then Ladies’ Morning golf starts on May 19th. The ever-popular Friday Night 2-Ball is set to start on May 20th (the day the kitchen opens). Show support for these, come on out for a game of golf.

Several of our golfers will be in Clare for the Mixed tournament on the long weekend and hopefully there will be some success stories to share after that weekend.

I heard that Michael C. had a Chicken bone scare...glad to hear you are o.k, didn’t your

Mom ever tell you to stay away from lumps in your porridge and bones in your soup?

I am anxious to get out for another round of golf. The course is in great shape everything is so green, but Mother Nature is just not co-operating. Someday soon it WILL be warm. Hats off to the Maintenance Staff for having the course in such great shape and it is nice to see all the raking has been picked up between Hole 12 and Hole 15. Great Job.

Don’t forget to say hi to the new members, make them feel welcome. All golfers, remember to sign in at the Pro Shop before you head out on the course.

Did you get your ticket and/or tickets on the 3 year membership draw...what a deal...only $10 a ticket. You can’t golf anywhere for $10. Tickets are available at the Pro Shop.

Until next week...enjoy The Challenge...Golf Fore You.

So the weather’s ideal and you’re raring to enjoy the great outdoors — but you’re feeling fatigued, and you’re suffering from chills, fever, headache, muscle and joint pain. Maybe swollen lymph nodes, too. Can’t fi gure out why you’re coming down with conditions you’d expect to feel in the winter? Could be you’re in the early stages of Lyme disease, or not.

HALIFAX - Nova Sco-tia’s public health offi cer is warning campers and hikers to take precautions against bites from blacklegged ticks. “The risk of Lyme disease is quite low in most areas of Nova Scotia,” said Dr. Robert Strang, Chief Public Health Offi cer for Nova Scotia. The insects can transmit Lyme disease, which can cause se-rious health problems if left untreated. Dr. Robert Strang says the risk of Lyme disease is quite low in most areas of Nova Scotia, “We have to recognize that ticks are here to stay but that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t enjoy the out-doors this summer.” People should take action in areas where blacklegged ticks are established, including parts of Bedford, Shelburne County, Pictou County and Heckmans Island in Lunenburg County. Dr. Strang says blacklegged

Nova Scotia Health Offi cer Issues Warning About Blacklegged TicksLet’s get informed! Think Health Promotion!

ticks can only transmit the bacterial infection after they have been attached to the skin for about 24 hours.

Tick InformationTicks are found in grassy,

brushy areas where they wait for a host to pass by. They are especially prevalent along paths used by animals. Ticks are not choosy about their host and often get onto a person’s leg. They crawl upward on the body, looking for a place to attach. Their populations are greater in the spring and summer following a mild winter.

In Canada, the blacklegged tick (Ixodes scapularis; often referred to as a deer tick) and the western blacklegged tick (Ixodes pacificus) are the species known to transmit the disease-causing agent, as well as other less common agents.

Ticks have a 4-stage life cycle: egg, larvae, nymph, and adult. The nymph and adult forms are able to at-tach to humans and other animals and possibly transmit diseases.

Though closely related to insects, ticks are actually a type of mite.

Ticks vary in size and co-lour; blacklegged ticks are very small. Before feeding, adult females are approxi-mately 3-5 mm in length and red and dark brown in colour. Females are a little larger than

males and when they’re full of blood can be as big as a grape. Younger tick life stages are smaller and, when unfed, are lighter in colour.

A tick bite is not painful and may go unnoticed. In most cases, the tick simply bites, draws blood for its nourishment, and drops off. If the tick happens to be in-fected, the infectious agent is transmitted during the feed-ing process. It is important to realize the majority of ticks are not infected.

How to avoid Tick’sAvoid tick-infested areas as

mentioned above.Wear light-colored clothing

so ticks can be seen.Wear long-sleeved shirts

and tuck pants into socks. So what if your kids laugh at you, make them do it too!

Wear shoes that cover your entire foot - avoid sandals in areas where ticks might be.

Apply insect repellents containing DEET to cloth-ing and exposed skin. Read guidelines on can for applica-tion on children. See DEET Guidelines on Vector Control web page.

Check your body thor-oughly for ticks.

The number of ticks in en-demic residential areas may be reduced by removing leaf litter, brush and woodpiles around houses and at the

edges of yards, and by clear-ing trees and brush to admit more sunlight and reduce the amount of suitable habitat for deer, rodents, and ticks. Tick populations have also been effectively suppressed through the application of pesticides to residential prop-erties.

How to remove a tickIf a tick is removed within

24 hours, the chances of it transmitting Lyme disease or other infections are much less.

Use tweezers. Grasp the tick by the HEAD as close as possible and pull upward with steady, even pressure. DO NOT TWIST, JERK OR SQUEEZE THE TICK.

Thoroughly wash the bite site with soap and water and disinfect the bite. Wash your hands.

Never remove a tick with fi ngernail polish, alcohol or hot matches.

If you have saved the tick, take it with you to the doc-tor’s offi ce.

To help track tick activity, people are urged to send ticks that they fi nd on themselves or pets to the Museum of Natural History in Halifax. Nova Scotians can also drop ticks off at a local Department of Natural Resources offi ce. The ticks should be placed in an empty pill bottle and

labelled with the date and location where they were found.

SymptomsCertain ticks may release

a toxin that can cause tem-porary paralysis. This is the reason it is important to re-move the whole tick as soon as possible.

If you have the following symptoms within days or weeks after being bitten by a tick, report them to your family doctor immediately. Tell your doctor when and where a tick bit you.

General symptoms of fe-ver, headache, muscle and joint pains, fatigue or weak-ness of the muscles of the face.

Skin rash, especially one that looks like a bull’s eye. It may or may not be where the bite was.

In some cases paralysis may occur. The paralysis usu-ally starts in the feet and legs and works its way up to the upper body, arms and head. This paralysis usually starts within a few hours to a day or two of the bite.

The Sum up!There are currently no

vaccines licensed in Canada for any diseases passed on

by ticks.Lyme disease and other

tick-related diseases can be treated with antibiotics. Early diagnosis and treatment can help prevent complications. An infected tick can only transmit the disease if it has been attached to a person for 24 hours.

The Health Department of Nova Scotia says 17 cases of Lyme disease were reported in the province last year.

There have been 67 con-fi rmed and probable cases of Lyme disease in Nova Scotia since 2002.

Dwight Ross Elementary School offi cially opened their doors on May 25, 1961. It was built in Greenwood to serve the military dependents with Grade Primary to Six which was then known as the Royal Canadian Air Force Station Greenwood.

The school was named after Air Commodore Arthur Dwight Ross, GC, CBE, CD who distinguished himself as a war hero in the Second World War when he was appointed a Commander of the most excellent order of the British Empire and after the war as Chief Staff Offi cer of Training Commanding, Air Transport Command and Air Officer Commanding, Maritime Air Staff, London, England and then Commander of No. 5 Air Division, Vancouver, B.C.

Dwight Ross Elementary School was the fi rst school built in Greenwood but as the years went by the expansion of the base saw continuing

changes in the student population. That’s when Russell C. Gordon School was built and Dwight Ross Elementary School evolved from the original Primary to Grade 6, to Grades 3-7, then 3-8, then 3-9 and fi nally Grades 6-9 in the mid 60’s. In 1986, AVM Morfee School housed Primary to Grade 3 and Dwight Ross Elementary School switched to Grades 4-9. In 1988, the Schools were turned over to the former Kings County Amalgamated School Board. In 1988 to 1989, Russell C. Gordon School re-opened with Primary to Grade 3 (English) and Primary to Grade 6 (Francophone). Dwight Ross Elementary

School then housed Grades 4-9 (Engl ish) and 7-9 (Francophone). In 2000, the French Board took over Russell C. Gordon and Grade 9 students were all sent to West Kings District High School in Aylesford/Auburn. At this time Dwight Ross Elementary School housed Primary to Grade 8. In January 2001, Pine Ridge Middle School opened their doors to house Grades 6-8. This now left Dwight Ross Elementary School, Primary to Grade 5. In 2001, Dwight Ross Elementary School became an Elementary school to stay!

The School has a strong tradit ion of community involvement and pride. In 2004, the school was named by Today’s Parent Magazine as one of Canada’s top four Elementary Schools.

School Principals over the years were as followed:Katherine West(1960-1972), Alec MacAskill (1972-1986), John Rainforth (1986-1993), David Reid (1993-2001), Karl West (2001-2006), Barry Squires (2006-2009)

and last but not least Eueline Keysor (2009 to Present).

As stated in our school vision statement, “We are a School community inspired to think, dream, believe, and achieve through partnerships among children, parents, staff and community in a safe nurturing environment.”

As you can see from above the school had a huge population of students that attended classes over the last 50 years. Many people

reading this article today may have walked the halls of Dwight Ross Elementary School whether it was yourself or with your children. Former staff, students and friends of the School why not mark your calendars for Tuesday May 24, 2011 and get ready for an afternoon of fun and help celebrate 50 years of smiles. An open house, School tour and reception will be held in the School’s conference room from 4:00-6:00 p.m. This will be preceded by a recognition

assembly from 1:15-2:15 p.m. in the School’s gymnasium. As well celebrations will take place at various times throughout the afternoon!

If you or your family would like to attend the celebration, we ask that you please RSVP to the school as soon as possible. (Phone: 765-7510 or e-mail: [email protected]).

The staff looks forward to seeing the many faces from the past, present and future of Dwight Ross Elementary School.

The above group of Dwight Ross Elementary School students took part in the Hackmatack Children’s Choice Book Award program offered at their school. It is a liter-ary program started early in the school year and was offered to students in grades four to six. The students met once a week to discuss books that had been read and to write book reports. This program ended at the end of March. Good job to all students who took part in this opportunity and a special “round of applause” for Ross Ogil-vie who read all 26 books that were offered!

First Red Hat Finds Home at the SmithsonianSubmitted by: Daisy J.

Dwyer“…….The Red Hat Society

is an organization that encourages strong bonds and living life to the fullest – ideas that are cherished by our society.”

Brent D. Glass, Museum DirectorRed Hatters, en masse,

were out and about in their various communities across Nova Scotia on Monday, April 25, 2011 to celebrate the thirteenth anniversary of the Red Hat Society. Based in California, this international sorority of women, whose colours of red and purple beautify the landscape wherever they gather, is a testament of the

spirit of ageing gracefully. With women from many countries around the world engaged in the movement, the continuing excitement of the chapters is displayed in a variety of interesting events, lively hoots and everlasting friendships.

This year, in Nova Scotia, many chapters participated in the anniversary celebrations with an assortment of social engagements ranging from

teas to parades to community social events.

In Washington, D.C., the original red hat that started the movement was ceremoniously placed in the Smithsonian’s Museum of American History for permanent display.

More locally, the members of the Delightfully Dashing Debutan tes Chap te r, a group eight years in the making, frolicked about the Greenwood Mall in their flashy and decorated red Easter Bonnets while enjoying their camaraderie as a long lasting and festive group of invigorated women from our surrounding communities.

For information on Red Hatting call 765-3906.

ARIES - Mar 21/Apr 20There are some situations for which there are no answers, Aries. In these times, you should defer to someone with more authority on the subject.TAURUS - Apr 21/May 21Taurus, a number of people are questioning the way you are operating lately. Do not be dissuaded from action. You know the reasons behind your decisions.GEMINI - May 22/Jun 21Nominal purchases can quickly add up to quite a sum, Gemini. Keep track of your spending because you can easily deplete your funds without even realizing it. CANCER - Jun 22/Jul 22There is a romantic match out there for you single Cancers. It could just take a little more looking this week. Attached Cancer men and women will form a stronger romantic bond.LEO - Jul 23/Aug 23Leo, be a little more patient because something you started a while ago has yet to be resolved. It can only get done if you buckle down for the next few days.VIRGO - Aug 24/Sept 22Virgo, it can be hard to ignore gossip but that is precisely what you need to do this week. Foul words can hurt only if you let them get under your skin. Keep friends close by.

LIBRA - Sept 23/Oct 23There’s no need to worry, Libra. You have it all under control even if it doesn’t seem that way. Once you are done you will see that you had it covered. SCORPIO - Oct 24/Nov 22Scorpio, creative processes will keep you busy this week. Get involved in a hobby or project that will take several days to complete. Then begin a new one.SAGITTARIUS - Nov 23/Dec 21Sagittarius, a relationship comes to an end and it leaves you feeling a bit detached. The quicker you can move on the better off you will be. Family softens the blow.CAPRICORN - Dec 22/Jan 20Capricorn, if there isn’t anything positive to say, simply keep your lips closed and be inconspicuous.
