‘Spirited’ Burrows

Stouffville’s best sport

BY MICHAEL [email protected]

When Kenny Burrows played hockey as a youngster he did not envision himself carving a path to the NHL.

What mattered most to the Stouffville resident when he played was to win.

Same goes for his time with the Stouffville Spirit Jr. A team, of which he now a part owner and general manager.

This past season, the 45-year-old Burrows did just that in constructing a Spirit roster that skated off with the franchise’s first-ever Ontario Junior Hockey League title and Buckland Cup trophy.

Burrows’ masterpiece caught the attention of those who voted for this year’s Stouffville Sun-Tri-bune’s Sports Person of the Year award.

Burrows will be presented with this year’s award June 29 at Memorial Park during the open-ing of the Strawberry Festival at 6:30 p.m.

Acknowledging he was shocked when informed of the good tidings, a humble Burrows was quick to point out there were

f you want something to happen, you have to make it happen.

And that is exactly what Carol Morin did five years ago when she joined the

Silver Jubilee Club and found they only played cards.

She wanted to spend her retirement years doing more than playing euchre and bridge.

So Ms Morin, 69, took it upon herself to bring mahjong, water colour painting, yoga and pho-tography, to name a few, to the Silver Jubilee.

“Some of these things, I don’t care if I do them. I just want others to do them,” she said.

It is no surprise that once Ms Morin took over the Silver Jubilee’s programming, membership has virtually doubled over the years.

That is partially why the Stouffville resident has been chosen as this year’s Stouffville Sun-Tribune Citizen of the Year.

“One person can change lives. I wish there were more people in Whitchurch-Stouffville like her,” wrote Marilyn Ferguson, in her nomina-tion of Ms Morin.

“She also exemplifies the spirit of loyalty and

Carol Morin will be honoured as the town’s citizen of the year next week. The Stouffville resi-dent is a busy volunteer at the town’s seniors’ and lawn bowling clubs and St. Mark Church.See BURROWS, page 20. See SELFLESS, page 22.

If you like warm weather, you’re going to enjoy our summer, but keep an eye on the sky, senior Environment Canada climatolo-gist David Phillips said.

Our spring, March through May, was warmer than normal, with 54-per-cent less rain than average, he said. In the same time, we’ve had five smog alert days, compared to just one in 2011.

The higher heat and lower pre-cipitation are a source of angst for growers and foreshadow the pos-sibility of severe weather, including strong winds, hail, micro bursts and tornadoes, Mr. Phillips said.

“Whether it’s rip roaring or not, no one knows,” he said. “But, with warmer weather, typically there’s more lightning and heat gener-ates thunderstorms. We also know York Region gets its share of severe weather.”

We’ve still got a while to go before the dog days and he forecasts July and August will be warmer than normal seasonal 24 C highs and 13 C overnight lows.

“It shouldn’t be like last sum-mer’s excruciating heat,” he said. “The dryness is an issue and fore-casting rain is a bit of a crap shoot.”

The promise of consistent high heat and the potential for particu-larly oppressive nights in the 20 C-plus range present risks and chal-lenges for everyone, including peo-ple with the means to control home environments.

cooler than 2011

The last few days have seen our region baking in temperatures top-ping 35 C, Mr. Phillips said. Humid-ity makes it feel like we’re in the 40 C zone.

As such, York Region issued a heat advisory and opened cooling stations. Extreme temperatures can cause heat-related illnesses and everyone is at risk.

The danger is greatest for older

adults, infants and young children, people who work or exercise in the heat and people with chronic ill-nesses, including breathing difficul-ties, heart conditions or psychiatric illnesses.

Extra attention should be devot-ed to neighbours, friends and older family members, especially those who are chronically ill, to make sure they are cool and hydrated.

Warning signs of heat-related ill-ness can include dizziness, head-ache, nausea or vomiting, weakness and confusion. If you experience any of these symptoms, seek medi-cal attention immediately.

If you’re fortunate enough to have air conditioning, comfort comes with a cost.

Sixty-nine per cent of Ontar-ians are concerned with the cost of maintaining a steady temperature in their home during the summer

months, according to a recent sur-vey conducted for Direct Energy, the company’s home idea director, Dave Walton, said.

On average, half of your summer electric bill is for air conditioning, he added.

save money

About seven of 10 households use air conditioning and following simple tips can save you money, he said.

Installing a programmable ther-mostat and setting it based on your living patterns to control your ener-gy usage and sealing leaks around windows and doors with weather stripping and caulking are two easy tasks that can impact your energy bills positively, Mr. Walton said.

“In older homes, the cumulative effect of leaks is like a hole the size of a basketball,” he said.

Stouffville Lions still serving community 75 years later

Re: ‘Joining service club way down the list’, Ballantrae Lions join inactive group, May 26.

The Stouffville Lions Club is alive and well, serving our community with pride.

Who are Lions?Lions meet the needs of local com-

munities and the world. The 1.35 million members (men and woman) of our vol-unteer organization in 207 countries and geographic areas are different in many ways, but share a core belief – community is what we make it.

Our famous beef barbecue will be held this year June 28 from 4:30 to 7 p.m. Almost 600 pounds of beef roasted in an open pit over a wood fire. The best you have ever eaten, or so they say. Look for our trailer with the names of our spon-sors.

September starts off with our food booth at Markham Fair, in the livestock building. Drop by for peameal bacon on a bun and deep-fried apples.

In December, we sell Christmas trees at the Canadian Tire Store, space gener-ously donated by the store.

Our Christmas toy drive, thanks to the generosity of Stouffville residents and businesses, turns Latcham Hall in Memo-rial Park into toy central. Lions and vol-unteers pack boxes for families who need a helping hand at this joyous and stressful time of the year.

We bus seniors on a tour to view the dazzling lights decorating the homes in town.

Don’t forget the Mayor’s New Year’s Eve celebrations. Hot chocolate, anyone?

One of our most rewarding projects is the vision screening program for senior kindergarten students at all elementary schools.

Editorial

Premier Dad might be called upon, once again, to legislate us to be safe.

Dalton McGuinty and the Liberals have already passed laws to ensure adults don’t smoke on patios or in vehi-cles with children, and that everyone younger than 18 wears a helmet while riding a bicycle.

Now, adult cyclists may be the next target in his cross-hairs.

A review of all accidental cycling deaths in the province between 2006 and 2010, recommended, among other things, that bike helmets be required for cyclists of all ages.

The belief is a law that covers every-one would address the fact only 27 per cent of cyclists who died from colli-sions were wearing helmets.

Putting helmets on everyone will save lives, according to the report, which was led by deputy chief coroner Dr. Dan Cass.

It’s hard to argue against that, but not everyone agrees it’s the right thing to do.

In fact, Dr. Cass’ panel members could not agree on whether or not legislation was the best way to pro-mote cycling safety and many of the people who would appear to gain the most from the possible legislation are against it.

Cycling groups across the province argue education, not legislation, is the answer.

Mandatory helmet use will not reduce the number of cycling injures and, instead, will only reinforce the incorrect belief that wearing a helmet is the only way to avoid injury.

And who’s going to enforce this kind of legislation? Our police officers have more important duties than issuing tickets to helmet-less cyclists.

The mandatory helmet recommen-dation is the lone part of the coroner’s report that is receiving negative reac-tion.

In addition to the mandatory helmet suggestion, Dr. Cass also recommends an approach at the municipal level that would emphasize the creation of bike paths and bike lanes separated from roads.

Instead of a law that’s just another example of the premier trying to pro-tect us from ourselves, it makes more sense to look at the coroner’s sugges-tions for reducing cycling accidents.

For example, we need more dedi-cated bike lanes, not just lines painted on existing roads, to make room for our cyclists and keep everyone safe.

Unfortunately, this government’s forté seems simply to be coming up with an easy fix.

Stop legislating common sense

Stouffville

Off The Top

with Jim Mason

Paul Calandra promised a specta-cle. The MP for Oak Ridges-Markham delivered.

Main Street in downtown Stouffville was lined with spectators, many of them clad in red and white, to witness the Governor General’s Horse Guards receive the Freedom of the Town from Mayor Wayne Emmerson Saturday.

A number of past and present mili-tary vehicles, including a tank, made their way along Main Street, along with about 100 soldiers and calvary on horse en route to the ceremony in Civic Square.

Spectators stood three deep near the clock tower, Canadian flag bun-ting flying over their heads. Several unleashed supplied cannons of con-fetti at the conclusion of the ceremo-nies.

It felt more British or American than Canadian.

Front and centre was Stouffville resident Dr. John Button, who is a direct descendant of Major John But-ton, who founded Button’s Troop 1810, which is a part of the York Militia.

Mr. Button founded the calvary in response to anti-loyalist speeches made by some of the locals.

There were 19 members of the But-ton family in attendance, the youngest being ninth generation.

Dr. Button, a former Sun-Tribune citizen of the year, was presented with Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II Diamond Jubilee Medal for his contri-butions to the community.

Dr. Button, now in his 90s, was the primary physician in Stouffville for many years.

“We didn’t know what to expect,” said Stouffville Main Street lawyer Eric Button, a seventh-generation member of the family. “But it was very well done. People take pride in our voluntary army. They support it and that’s nice.”

On a unique day in Whitchurch-Stouffville.

Stouffville Lions still serving community 75 years later

Re: ‘Joining service club way down the list’, Ballantrae Lions join inactive group, May 26.

The Stouffville Lions Club is alive and well, serving our community with pride.

Who are Lions?Lions meet the needs of local com-

munities and the world. The 1.35 million members (men and woman) of our vol-unteer organization in 207 countries and geographic areas are different in many ways, but share a core belief – community is what we make it.

Our famous beef barbecue will be held this year June 28 from 4:30 to 7 p.m. Almost 600 pounds of beef roasted in an open pit over a wood fire. The best you have ever eaten, or so they say. Look for our trailer with the names of our spon-sors.

September starts off with our food booth at Markham Fair, in the livestock building. Drop by for peameal bacon on a bun and deep-fried apples.

In December, we sell Christmas trees at the Canadian Tire Store, space gener-ously donated by the store.

Our Christmas toy drive, thanks to the generosity of Stouffville residents and businesses, turns Latcham Hall in Memo-rial Park into toy central. Lions and vol-unteers pack boxes for families who need a helping hand at this joyous and stressful time of the year.

We bus seniors on a tour to view the dazzling lights decorating the homes in town.

Don’t forget the Mayor’s New Year’s Eve celebrations. Hot chocolate, anyone?

One of our most rewarding projects is the vision screening program for senior kindergarten students at all elementary schools.

Editorial

Premier Dad might be called upon, once again, to legislate us to be safe.

Dalton McGuinty and the Liberals have already passed laws to ensure adults don’t smoke on patios or in vehi-cles with children, and that everyone younger than 18 wears a helmet while riding a bicycle.

Now, adult cyclists may be the next target in his cross-hairs.

A review of all accidental cycling deaths in the province between 2006 and 2010, recommended, among other things, that bike helmets be required for cyclists of all ages.

The belief is a law that covers every-one would address the fact only 27 per cent of cyclists who died from colli-sions were wearing helmets.

Putting helmets on everyone will save lives, according to the report, which was led by deputy chief coroner Dr. Dan Cass.

It’s hard to argue against that, but not everyone agrees it’s the right thing to do.

In fact, Dr. Cass’ panel members could not agree on whether or not legislation was the best way to pro-mote cycling safety and many of the people who would appear to gain the most from the possible legislation are against it.

Cycling groups across the province argue education, not legislation, is the answer.

Mandatory helmet use will not reduce the number of cycling injuries and, instead, will only reinforce the incorrect belief that wearing a helmet is the only way to avoid injury.

And who’s going to enforce this kind of legislation? Our police officers have more important duties than issuing tickets to helmet-less cyclists.

The mandatory helmet recommen-dation is the lone part of the coroner’s report that is receiving negative reac-tion.

In addition to the mandatory helmet suggestion, Dr. Cass also recommends an approach at the municipal level that would emphasize the creation of bike paths and bike lanes separated from roads.

Instead of a law that’s just another example of the premier trying to pro-tect us from ourselves, it makes more sense to look at the coroner’s sugges-tions for reducing cycling accidents.

For example, we need more dedi-cated bike lanes, not just lines painted on existing roads, to make room for our cyclists and keep everyone safe.

Unfortunately, this government’s forté seems simply to be coming up with an easy fix.

Stop legislating common sense

Off The Top

with Jim Mason

Paul Calandra promised a specta-cle. The MP for Oak Ridges-Markham delivered.

Main Street in downtown Stouffville was lined with spectators, many of them clad in red and white, to witness the Governor General’s Horse Guards receive the Freedom of the Town from Mayor Wayne Emmerson Saturday.

A number of past and present mili-tary vehicles, including a tank, made their way along Main Street, along with about 100 soldiers and calvary on horse en route to the ceremony in Civic Square.

Spectators stood three deep near the clock tower, Canadian flag bun-ting flying over their heads. Several unleashed supplied cannons of con-fetti at the conclusion of the ceremo-nies.

It felt more British or American than Canadian.

Front and centre was Stouffville resident Dr. John Button, who is a direct descendant of Major John But-ton, who founded Button’s Troop 1810, which is a part of the York Militia.

Mr. Button founded the calvary in response to anti-loyalist speeches made by some of the locals.

There were 19 members of the But-ton family in attendance, the youngest being ninth generation.

Dr. Button, a former Sun-Tribune citizen of the year, was presented with Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II Diamond Jubilee Medal for his contri-butions to the community.

Dr. Button, now in his 90s, was the primary physician in Stouffville for many years.

“We didn’t know what to expect,” said Stouffville Main Street lawyer Eric Button, a seventh-generation member of the family. “But it was very well done. People take pride in our voluntary army. They support it and that’s nice.”

Our salad feature this week is a Finnish specialty, madewith diced button mushrooms, sweet onion slices, snippedgreen onions, lemon, cream, I know, and "finnished" upwith a white wine vinaigrette.Featured at...And, we'll be making soup, because Finns love soup. Twokinds: the first is Beef and Potato. This is a thicker soup,more stew-like, with Yukon potatoes, leeks, turnips, carrots,celery, and spices, including a hint of allspice.Featured at...And, Salmon Soup, using our poached fresh Atlanticsalmon, also with potatoes, leeks, carrots and celery, andcream.

These willbe available starting on Friday, hand-sliced by yours truly!A real treat! Featured at...While supplies last.

From what I have discovered, Finns like treats — alot of them! We've arrangd a selection of three tofeature this week: Firstly, we'll have Licorice, orLakritsi, as it's called. Although there is a seeminglyendless variety of types, both hard and soft, we'llbe featuring Panda soft and chewy licorice ineither the traditional molasses, raspberry or anoutside the box, blueberry flavour. They all comein boxes — 200g size to be exact.Reg. $3.79 ea, featured at...Next, we'll have chocolate, too. The brand is'Marabou' and there will be three types. Thesample that I inhaled was the Milk, always a goodsampling reference point, but Jaana insists thatthe bars with Hazelnuts are the best, and we'llalso have 'Dark Chocolate' bars, too! When Inoted that they are made in Sweden, the reply wasthat 'All Finns love them'! They come in a 200gbar, so you'll be able to share ifyou need to. Featured at...

And, most people might not think of this as atreat but a staple, Finn Crisps! These have beenmade since 1952 and served at the summerOlympics in Helsinki. Varieties are Multigrain,Original and Caraway.Reg. $3.29.Featured this week at...

This is a bone-in section ofporkrack—essentiallyaporkprime rib.

stretch price-wise — but we'll feature it this week atour cost, which is approximately $12.95 per jar. 410g

FINLAND...WE ARE OFF TO

When we began to do our theme ads earlier this year,we were amazed at how much of a contribution allthese different national cuisines have made to the'global cuisine' that we all currently enjoy. Long goneare the 'meat and potato' diets, not that we don't alloccasionally enjoy meat and potatoes, but there isnow so much more to be had. We've accepted a lotof these hitherto unknown items into our culinarylife, and they've become part of that adventure. Thisweek we are visiting Finland and our hostess is ourhead baker, Jaana. We chose this week to make this'visit' because it's the summer solstice on Wednesday(now past) and it's a big deal in Finland. It's called'Midsummer Night' and it's the longest day of theyear, and in Finland, the sun stays up all night long. Asa matter of fact, it doesn't get dark at all, all summer

he Springvale Boys, a vocal quartet com-prising Dave Noakes, Phil Pugh, Rod Rus-sell and John Halse will be honoured when Stouffville United Church hosts the 22nd annual Music Festival Wednesday at 8 p.m.

The group, based out of Springvale Baptist Church, will receive the Music Town, Ontario award at a concert to include the Men of Note chorus and violin virtuoso Matthew Eeuwes.

The award presentation will be made by Celina Davies and Rob Forbes, husband and grandson of the late Bob Davies, last year’s recipient.

Admission is free-will. Donations will be received for the Whitchurch-Stouffville Food Bank.

From a humble beginning in 2005, The Springvale Boys now find themselves in constant demand with more than 30 shows a year including visits to area nursing homes, and churches.

It was following a single-song presentation at Springvale that members John and Bill Thornton, Bill McGilvray, Herb Hoover, John Halse and pianist Rod Russell discussed the possibility of establishing a permanent vocal group. A month later, they joined voices in the Christmas favourite Silent Night, result-ing in spontaneous applause.

They’ve never looked back. While changes in personnel have occurred over the

last six-plus years, Mr. Halse honestly admits the recent death of member Herb Hoover has hit them hard.

“He was our heart and soul,” he says.Following the funeral, at which the group partici-

pated, a solemn prayer service was held at John’s home. It was there the decision was made to continue.

It’s what Herb would have wanted, they agreed. Weekly rehearsals are held at the Hoover residence, following a request from Herb’s wife Alene.

“This meant a lot to us,” says John.The Springvale repertoire totals 50 songs, all sacred

“with a few novelty numbers tossed in.”“We like a little bit of humour and I believe the

audience does also,” John said.A career highlight to date for ‘The Boys’ was the

recent release of a CD entitled Focused on You. All songs except one were written by John. Richard Ash of London, Ont., composed the music. The work took two years to complete.

“We’re very happy with it,” says John, who describes it as “a humbling experience but very encouraging.”

John’s proud of the close relationship between members. The fact tenor Phil Pugh is enrolled in a four-year program at Heritage College in Cambridge, hasn’t eroded the group’s solidarity.

This cohesiveness is strengthened by the fact all decisions are made as a group, he notes.

The quartet’s willingness to serve the community knows no bounds. And while they appreciate invita-tions a month in advance, they’ve been known to respond on short notice if a particular afternoon or evening is open.

They’ve no set fee, only an honorarium. They always provide a full concert regardless of crowd size.

“Wherever we go, there are hurting people,” says John. “If we’re able to lift that burden, even briefly, then it’s all worthwhile.”

As for the Music Town, Ontario award at next week’s concert, John says “it means an awful lot.”

“It’s an honour – we appreciate it.”Whitchurch-Stouffville appreciates them.

Jim Thomas, a Stouffville resident who has written for area newspa-pers for more than 60 years, is an organizer of the Music Festival.

Keith Acton spent almost 50 years playing or coaching hockey without a break.

Until last winter.The Toronto Maple Leafs fired

the Stouffville native and resident a year ago. He spent the season on the Leafs’ payroll watching his sons play in the GTA.

The hiatus officially ended yes-terday when Columbus Blue Jackets head coach Todd Richards added Acton, 54, as an assistant.

“It was the first time in 33 years I wasn’t part of a team,” he said from

Pittsburgh yesterday where NHL teams are preparing for the week-end draft. “You’re in there compet-ing, trying to get better every day with the group — until last year. Actually, it probably goes back to when I was five years old.

“It was a strange year that way.”Acton is excited about joining

Columbus and new associate coach Craig Hartsburg, who signed on this week, too.

“I want to help Todd Richards,” Acton said. “He did a real good job in the last 30 games last season. It was starting to pay dividends. There are some cornerstone players in place here already.

“And there are no dynasties out there in this league anymore.”

Acton served as an assistant/associate coach with the Philadel-phia Flyers from 1994-98 and an assistant with the New York Rangers from 1998-2000.

‘strange year’

“Keith is a quality person who brings a lot of experience, both as an assistant coach and player in the NHL, to our coaching staff,” Rich-ards said. “My goal has been to sur-round myself with knowledgeable and experienced people who could add a lot to our staff and I think we have done that with the group of

coaches we have here.”Acton was selected by the Mon-

treal Canadiens in the sixth round, 103rd overall, at the 1978 NHL draft. He played in 1,023 NHL games with Montreal, the Minnesota North Stars, Edmonton Oilers, Philadel-phia Flyers, Washington Capitals and New York Islanders.

He represented Montreal in the 1982 all-star game and helped the Oilers win the 1988 Stanley Cup championship.

His oldest son, Will, plays for the Leafs’ top farm team, the Toronto Marlies in the American Hockey League. His other son, Robbie, is a member of the Ontario

Keith Acton excited to back back to work in ColumbusJunior Hockey League champion Stouffville Spirit.

BY RUTH BURKHOLDERWhat could be York Region’s first commu-

nity cemetery includes graves that pre-date the War of 1812.

You can check them out Sunday afternoon during the 200th anniversary service at Dick-son Hill Cemetery.

A large crowd is expected to remember those who are buried in the cemetery. It’s on Dickson Hill Road, just east of Hwy. 48 and south of the Whitchurch-Stouffville border.

It was 200 years ago that a group of people donated 30 pounds to purchase two acres for “a burying ground, and the erect-ing of a house of worship to be used in common by regular societies of professing Christians and for no other purpose what-soever unless it should be required for the use of a school”.

The group included Henry Wideman, Philip Wideman, Philip Peck, George Fockler, Christian Long, Philip Long, James Brown, Joseph Davis, Jacob Long, Leonard Castor, Barbary Kisinor Thomas, Henry Shank, Henry Kisiner, Joseph Hisey, Jacob Barkey, Abraham Grove, Nicholas Kerts, Philip Kisiner, Christian Wideman, John Long, Henry Bartholomew, Martin Hoover, John Miller, George Patterson, David Paterson and Andrew Patterson.

‘FIRST IN REGION’

This was probably the first “community” — as distinct from “church” — cemetery in York County. It was used by families living in both Markham and Whitchurch for many miles around.

Many former residents of Stouffville are also buried here.

The oldest graves in the cemetery are actually pre-1812. In the East Cairn you will find the stones of Jacob VanHoben who died June 6, 1806 age 85 years; Eve Wideman, Nov.

1809 age 14 years; Daniel Wideman, Feb. 1810 age 17 years; and Henry Wideman, the first Mennonite preacher in Canada, who was killed by a falling tree June 24, 1810.

Also in the East Cairn you will find a small cement plaque which reads: “Union Church Erected 1868”. This refers to the church built to serve the community on the grounds of the cemetery. It was replaced by the present structure in 1951 when the land south of the cemetery was purchased.

STOUFFVILLE RESDENTS

It was used by the Mennonite commu-nity until being sold to the Apostolic Luther-an Church in 1978. The cemetery board is allowed to use the church building for its annual service.

The two Cairns were built by Bob Bruce in the 1980s as part of the ongoing maintenance of the cemetery under its board of directors, which came into being in 1927.

Dickson Hill is one of the few private cem-eteries in the Town of Markham.

Events on Sunday afternoon include music by the Hilltop Singers, a remembrance devotional by Pastor Lois Bukar of Wide-man Mennonite Church, the presentation by Markham’s Mayor Frank Scarpitti to the chair-person of the cemetery board, Hazel Peacock, of a plaque given to the cemetery by the Town of Markham.

There will also be a bicentennial tree planting by Markham Councillor Colin Campbell and board members Lloyd Bolender and Eric Timbers, a walking tour of the grounds and light refreshments.

The event begins at 2:30 p.m.

Stouffville historian Ruth Burkholder is a member of the Dickson Hill Cemetery bicentennial committee.

Cemetery marking 200thbut some stones even older

The oldest known stone in the Dickson Hill Cemetery is for Jacob VanHoben who died in 1806. The cemetery marks its 200th anniversary Sunday.

After making a big splash at last year’s Strawberry Festival, the dunk tank is back to raise more money for local charities.

Town staffers, local business owners, sports coaches and student volunteers headline a list of volunteers taking the plunge this time around, said organizer Chris Shanahan.

The event runs in Memorial Park June 30 from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. and July 1 from 10:30 a.m. to 5 p.m.

For a toonie, participants can try to dunk their favourite local celebrity into a chilly

tank of water. All proceeds go to support local organizations including the Whitchurch-Stouffville Food Bank.

For more information, call 416-556-2124 or visit www.strawberryfestival.ca

The festival opens June 29. Popular pre-festival events includes Wednesday’s Music Festival at Stouffville United Church and the Lions Beef Barbecue in Memorial Park next Thursday.

Look for the official festival program with Saturday’s Sun-Tribune.

18 on the edge with grandma

Laura Anderson was on top of the world to celebrate her 50th birthday this month. Her gift was going on the Edgewalk at the CN Tower, accompanied by her 20-year-old daughter Jen-nifer and Anne Kerr, her 80-year-old mother. “My mom was absolutely amazing, she had the time of her life,” she said. “To be up there with my daughter and my mom turned an incred-ible experience into a totally awesome one.” All three daredevils live in Stouffville.

other people who could easily have been chosen, including several with the Spirit.

It’s a trickle down effect, he said, from the assistant coaches down the line to those who volunteered their time on game days to ensure there were no hitches in how the game was presented to the loyal fans.

“I certainly didn’t expect to get this award. It’s actually overwhelming. Especially when you look at the people who have won this in the past like Cliff Dunkeld, Keith Acton and Marlene Streit. I certainly haven’t done the things those people did. There’s more deserving people than me and there was probably quite a list.

“It’s an honour to receive it, but it’s not just about one person. A lot of people were a part of (the championship). It’s actually been a build up over the last three and a half years (from the time Burrows was rehired as the Spirit general manager).”

Burrows made his coaching debut as an assistant when he was 22 years old with a Stouffville Clippers midget rep team, remain-ing with them for three seasons.

After taking a couple of years off from the game, Burrows returned and made his debut with the fledgling Spirit. That was 15 years ago when the team was owned by Ed Hakon-son and coached by Dan Larmer.

After two seasons of being a scout for the Spirit, Burrows then moved up the ranks to become an assistant coach under Brian Per-rin, who was hired in 1998.

It was during his first year working as an assistant coach when Burrows said he had a desire to some day become a general

manager.That call eventually came four years later

during the 2001-02 campaign when Burrows stepped up to become the club’s general manager after Dieter Schmidt, who served in that post, became ill and retired.

“If things like that aren’t taken care of, the players hate it,” he said. “Hockey is an emotional game and that’s when I decided I wanted to be a general manager where I could affect the team in a positive manner rather than being a coach, which everyone wants to do.”

Relieved of his duties after the 2006-07 season, Burrows took over as general man-ager of the now defunct Collingwood Blues for one season.

He started the next season with the New-market Hurricanes before receiving a call from then Spirit co-owner Dave Laren asking if he would like to return to Stouffville.

Burrows eventually returned to the Spirit where he’s been the general manager for the last three-and-a-half seasons.

Burrows was quick to acknowledge his job was made easier when given plenty of leeway to do what he wanted from Hakon-son and current co-owner Zeev Werek.

“If it wasn’t for Ed there might not be a Spirit team in Stouffville today,” Burrows said. “Ed saved the team and he wasn’t really a hockey guy, but more into cars.

“Zeev has spent a lot of money on the team. He does it the right way and doesn’t want to be in the spotlight. He loves the team and community,” Burrows said.

Werek said he could not think of any other person more deserving of this year’s honour.

“It was long overdue. He’s been a real gem

for the team,” Werek said. “He’s put his heart and soul into this organization from the time he started as a scout to being an assistant coach and general manager.

Craig Donovan, who coached the OJHL club to its first-ever Buckland Cup title last season and was hired by Burrows, agreed.

“There are days when he would drop in at our practice for a few minutes before heading off to scout a game or tournament involving minor midget or midget players,” Donovan said. “He spends as much time in the rinks during the winter months as any Ontario Hockey League scout would do. He’s a tireless worker when it comes to finding the right player. By right in terms of the potential to

grow as a player and as good kids.“He makes sure they’re good players and

good citizens. To do that takes a lot of time. He does a lot to bring quality players to Stouffville. For a small town, the franchise has been suc-cessful under his guidance.”

The OJHL’s executive of the year would rel-ish a chance to work at a higher level.

“I’d love a shot at the Ontario Hockey League as a general manager,” said Burrows, who owns the Farmer Jack’s garden store in Sharon. “I know a lot of guys in the league and I’ve watched a lot of them and if I had a chance I’d grab it in a heartbeat.

“I don’t think they’ll find a harder working person.”

camaraderie so valued in volunteer organiza-tions, no matter how busy she is herself ... She supports the ideas and projects of other members. And even when triple-booked for the day with family and church commit-ments, she always finds time to drop off the pie or salad for the bowling tournament or help in the kitchen for a few hours,” according to Kevin McWhinnie.

“Her quiet, efficient demeanour exempli-fies a truly selfless volunteer. Carol works to better our community without asking for any reward,” according to fellow volunteer Doris Harvey.

Ms Morin is not just the programmer for the now-named 55 Plus Silver Jubilee Club, she is also an active member of the Stouffville Lawn Bowling Club. One of her tasks is to produce its newsletter.

“Lawn bowling was one of the best things I ever got into,” she said.

For the past 20 years Ms Morin has been a member of St. Mark’s Choir. She is also its music cataloguer.

“I do enjoy organizing things. The cata-loguer comes back. I like to see people enjoy themselves. ... That’s what makes it worth-while,” she said.

Ms Morin has also completed two terms with the Whitchurch-Stouffville Public Library Board between 1975 and 2010.

Ms Morin first started volunteering for organizations her children were involved with.

“If you want your kids to be a part of some-

thing, you should help out,” she said.As a guide leader, Ms Morin was also a

camp cook who became famous for her mashed potatoes.

She also helped out with brownies and minor softball, all while raising three children and working as a library cataloguer.

‘This is what you can do when you

retire. There is no end of things you

can do when you retire.’

It was in 2007 when she finally retired. At the same time, Ms Morin saw how joining a seniors’ club changed her sister-in-law’s life, so she decided it was time for her to do the same.

“I have the problem now, I can’t seem to fit anything else in,” she said.

Although Ms Morin’s volunteering keeps her busier than when she worked full-time, she manages to pack it all in between Mondays and Fridays as the weekends are reserved for her three children and nine grandchildren.

“This is what you can do when you retire. There is no end of things you can do when you retire,” Ms Morin said without a hint of slowing down.

Ms Morin will receive her award June 29 during the opening ceremonies of the Strawberry Festival. The event is scheduled for 6:30 p.m. in the marquee tent in Memo-rial Park.

Choosing a student athlete of the year can be a challenging task.

This year was no exception for the Stouffville District Secondary School coach-ing staff before the recipients were revealed at the school’s annual athletic banquet last Thursday.

Chosen as the senior male athlete of the year was Melvin Nolan. Lucy Lombardo and Jaimie Dobson were named co-senior

female athletes of the year.For a second straight year, Greg Barker

was junior male athlete of the year.The junior female award was shared by

Melissa Nowikow and Hayley Desjardins.“It was tough to choose this year’s win-

ners,” said Jamie Hewitt physical education head. “There was no one from the seniors that really jumped out. With the senior boys

there were six nominees and just look at the female senior and junior athletes where you had duo winners.”

The only recipient that really stood out, Hewitt said, was Barker.

A Grade 10 student who competed in vol-leyball, hockey and track and field, Barker was the only junior-eligible student athlete who played at the senior level, as an assistant cap-tain with the Spartans hockey team.

Where Barker really dominated though, was in track and field where he finished fourth in shotput and discus at the Ontario Federa-tion of School Athletic Associations champi-onships in Brockville.

At the York Region finals, he won the gold medal in the shotput with a meet record toss of 15.10 metres and was second in discus.

“You can tell how good of an athlete he is,” Hewitt said. “But he’s also a better person than an athlete. He’s humble and excellent with his teammates.”

Steve Jimmo, Spartans’ track and field coach, said what makes Barker special is his ability to combine several important traits.

‘better person than athlete’

“He’s very coachable and very athletic and physically stands out heads and shoulders above everyone,” he said. “And he has an abil-ity to compete well when the pressure’s on.”

Nolan, a Grade 12 student, competed as a scrum half in rugby and guard in basketball.

“Melvin began our season at outside centre but by the third game we moved him to scrum half since we thought we needed more output from that position,” said Hewitt, the school’s

rugby coach. “He stepped up and played well. It’s a tough position to play because you’re in on almost every play. And he had to learn how to box kick and with practice he became good at it as that’s tough to do. He was a critical piece to what success we had.”

‘begged to come out’

Lombardo, a Grade 12 student, was a mem-ber of the Spartans’ field hockey, ice hockey, rugby and soccer teams.

Also a Grade 12 student, Dobson played field hockey, basketball, volleyball and soccer for the Spartans and served as the school’s athletic council president.

“They’re both amazing athletes,” said Spar-tans’ physical education teacher Tara LeBar.

Having coached Lombardo in rugby, LeBar recalled she was one of their best backs and was a strong leader.

Sara Bubnick, Spartans field hockey coach, said Lombardo had an ability to transfer her skills from one sport to another.

Also coaching Dobson in field hockey, Bub-nick said she was like Lombardo in possessing a natural gift to excel at all sports.

“I taught her in phys ed in Grade 10 and begged her to come out for the field hockey team. But it wasn’t until this year when she came out and she was one of our MVPs. She’s a determined and dedicated player and always had a smile on her face. She’s one of the most coachable players that I had who played in every one of our games for the entire game,” Bubnick said.

Nowikow and Desjardins are both Grade 10 students.

“She trained hard and given what she had to do in working out, she would do it,” Jimmo said of Nowikow, who ran the 1,500m and was a member of the cross country, ice hockey and softball teams.

A member of the volleyball, soccer and rugby teams, Desjardins was described by LeBar as being a “truly amazing athlete”.

“She led by example on the court,” LeBar, who coached Desjardins in volleyball, said. “She always said ‘thanks’ and had energy that coaches love to see. She came every day to practice with that type of attitude.”

Also coaching Desjardins in rugby where she played as a back, LeBar said she was fast and was like a machine out on the pitch.

Karen Cockburn continued to tune up for the 2012 Summer Olympics by finishing third in a pre-Olympic World Cup trampoline meet in Albacete, Spain Sun-day.

Setting her sights on a fourth straight Olympic medal, the 31-year-old Stouffville resident placed third behind Shanshan Huang and Dan Li of China, who placed first and second, respectively.

Cockburn wanted to score 56 points or over in the final to keep pace with her Chinese rivals but had to settle for 55.13.

While elated to claim the bronze, Cockburn said she had to make some adjustments to the equipment used at the meet and elected to execute manoeuvres of a higher difficulty.

final pre-Games meet on weekend

“The trampolines here are more powerful than the ones we’ll be using at the Olympics, so that took some adjusting,” she said on Gymnastics Canada’s website. “I used my optional routine with the higher difficulty in the final and I just need to keep on working on the small things.”

Cockburn also acknowledged the competition she went up against will likely be the individuals who stand in her way of trying to capture her first Olympic gold medal.

“This was one of the strongest women’s field ever at a World Cup so this was a really good test leading up to the Games,” said Cockburn, the 13-time Canadian champion who won bronze at the 2000 Olympics and silver in 2004 and 2008.

Before competing in the Olympics, Cockburn has one more World Cup meet, this weekend in Arosa, Switzerland.

– Michael Hayakawa

For the record, the Stouffville Mennos incurred a 6-3 loss at the hands of the Scar-borough Athletics in their Oshawa City and District Fastball League game in Scarbor-ough Tuesday.

But for the Mennos, the loss turned out to be a moral victory.

Especially since the Mennos went the dis-tance against the first-place and undefeated Athletics after losing to them in a mercy-shortened affair one week ago.

Trailing 1-0 after one inning, the Mennos tied the game in their half of the second.

But the Athletics countered with four runs in the third to take a 5-1 lead.

In the fifth inning, the Mennos scored a pair of runs to trail 5-3 and had an opportu-nity to further reduce their deficit when they left two base runners stranded.

The Athletics though, added some breath-ing room by delivering one run in their turn

at bat to round out the scoring.Mennos’ starting pitcher Greg Dalgarno

went the distance, surrendering six runs and 10 hits in six innings.

The loss dropped the Mennos’ record to 3-6. The same two teams are scheduled to play at Memorial Park tonight at 8:30 p.m.

Bourgeois third in new York

Michael Bourgeois ran his way to a third-place finish in the 3,000-metre steeplechase event at the 2012 USATF East Regional Cham-pionships at Randall’s Island Park, N.Y.

Racing for the Newmarket Huskies, the 18-year-old Whitchurch-Stouffville resident was timed in 10:42.94.

Bourgeois also took part in the 10,000m race but only ran 3,000m of it to set the pace for a competitor trying to make the world junior standard time.
