Now in its fifth year, the event has always had at its core the best elements of a country fair: good food, good music and plain old fun. Many displays to peruse Visitors can browse among more than 30 displays by artists, artisans, vendors and community organizations while listening to the sounds of local bands Gravel Roads and the County Rd 5 Bluegrass Band. The popular blacksmith demonstration is back this year, as are many family activities that have become traditions at the fair: a magic show, horse-drawn wagon rides, storytelling by David Parkins, children’s games, and face painting. Some exciting new additions this year are the magician Bud Eyre as well as the Fur, Feathers and Fins Petting Zoo. This year, Ontario’s farming history is brought to the fore with the vin-

Brockville veggie garden tour sponsored by Transition Brockville News — Got a green thumb? Looking for inspiration to get started as a vegetable gardener? Want to show your kids where some of their food comes from? Could you use some tips to make your own veggie gardens even better? Transition Brockville’s first-ever, free, self-guided vegetable garden

tour runs Saturday, Aug. 23, 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., at six garden locations in the city, south of Highway 401. You can visit gardens in any order you like. Or you can drive to the parking lot at Leeds-Grenville Mental Health, unload your family’s bikes, and follow a family-friendly cycling route that takes in all six gardens. A

map is available in the tour brochure and on the Transition Brockville website (transitionbrockville.com). Look for the distinctive carrot signs marking locations of the tour gardens: • 25 Front Ave. W. where LeedsGrenville Mental Health has built raised garden boxes as a pilot project to promote healthier lifestyles for

its consumers. Staff will be on hand to answer questions and provide refreshments, with proceeds donated to LGMH. • 94 Abbott St. a residential garden with raised, in-ground beds, unusual vegetables, berry bushes and fruit trees. Transition Brockville rain barrels will be available for sale. • 5 Home St. where the Upper Canada Family Health Team has set up straw bale beds. Produce from these is distributed to the health clinic’s clients. • 35 Garden St. features another residential mixed laneway and backyard garden with in-ground beds. Look for some unusual eggplants here. • 27 Murray St. has a mixed laneway fruit and veggie garden. Handmade garden ornaments will be available for sale. • 251 North Augusta Rd. is the home of the Butler’s Creek Community Garden, now in its second year.

Volunteers run this garden, which is on city property and has 20 plots. Copies of the tour brochure can be downloaded from transitionbrockville.com and will also be available at the six gardens and at the Brockville Public Library, Leeds County Books, and Ritchie’s Feed and Seed Garden Centre on County Road 29. Transition Brockville (TB) was founded by local residents more than seven years ago to provide a nonpartisan forum for sharing information about how each of us, in our daily lives, can help to slow the rate of global warming, reduce our dependence on depleting fossil fuels, and adapt to the impacts of peak oil and climate change. In addition to monthly events and presentations, Transition Brockville builds and sells rain barrels. New and improved rain barrels are available for sale this summer.

‘Corn’tinuous fun

Photos by DOREEN BARNES

Entertainment - Below, Angel Lady Una Rhodes makes and sells one of a kind angels. In her collection she has different sized angles and varied colour combinations. The 34th year of the Athens Cornfest took place on Saturday, Aug. 16 with events on Main Street and in Memorial Park. There was continuous music, lots of sweet golden cobs of corn, vendors, Bingo, a magic show, children’s parade, Jumping Castle, Farmers’ Market with fresh produce, baked goods and farm machinery lining the street. The children enjoyed old school games, face painting, family scarecrow making contest, petting zoo, pony rides and Teddy Bear Clinic. For the hungry person, there was fresh ears of corn, Oktoberfest sausage, corny donuts, deli sandwiches, hamburgers, hot dogs, pulled pork on the bun and much more. At right, checking an ear of corn from a large pot of water for eating is Peter Vanderlinden who indicated that over 100 dozens ears of corn was to be used this year at Cornfest. Beside Vanderlinden is Rupe Green’s Steam Engine which has been used for years to cook the corn.

The day the laughter died

Gourmets of Gananoque Nicole Stevens and Alissa Burch were all smiles as they participated Aug. 9 in the third annual Gourmets of Gananoque outdoor food festival, presented by the Gananoque BIA. Event goers were able to participate by purchasing coupons ($1 each) and then redeeming these coupons at various downtown restaurants or booths set up in the street for a wide variety of tasty dishes.

Letter to the Editor

Manager announced for Prescott BIA

DEAR EDITOR:

The Prescott Business Improvement Area board of management is pleased to announce that Lise Yeatman-Alban has been engaged as the manager of the BIA. Yeatman-Alban is a graduate of South Grenville District High School and the Universities of Guelph and Western Ontario. Her many skills include information technology expertise and a genuine interest in helping other people succeed. She lives in Prescott and has already begun her work with the BIA.

A self-starter, she is now immersed in the important work of the BIA and has made one of her first challenges getting to better know the people and businesses in our historic downtown and throughout the community. It will no doubt be a busy year as the BIA forges ahead, implementing their strategic action plan. Sandra S. Lawn, Chair, Prescott BIA Board of Management

Why is it that a man who gave the world so much joy, so much laughter, whose smile and manic goofiness was unable to make himself smile? As it almost always is with suicides, Robin Williams’ apparent suicide on Monday, Aug. 11, in the San Francisco Bay area, leaves behind not only heartache and grief, but too many questions for his family, friends and fans. It just doesn’t make sense. Why does the death of Robin Williams hit so hard? Because he could make you laugh. Because he could make you forget about your problems for an hour or so. Because it was a delight to witness so much talent exploding too quickly, joke-after-joke raining down in rapid-fire on the audience. In a statement, Williams’ widow, speaking of the loss of her “best friend,” said that “it is our hope (that) the focus will not be on Robin’s death, but on the countless moments of joy and laughter he gave to millions.” His publicist told The Hollywood Reporter that Williams had been battling severe depression. Williams had been trying, going to a rehab clinic as recently as last month, reportedly feeling burned out after more than a year of non-stop work. He had been sober from his alcohol and drug addictions for a year, despite relapses, and even worked his addictions into his act. Hauntingly, he was one of the last people to see troubled comedian John Belushi before he died of a drug overdose in 1982. Suicide is a permanent solution to a temporary problem, and you can get help. Leeds-Grenville Mental Health has several offices throughout the county, including their main office on Front Avenue in Brockville. They can be reached by calling 613-342-6214 or toll free at 1-866-499-8445.

Pickling and preserving a busy time for Mary and family

Lifestyle - The air was heavy in the summer kitchen. Spices, boiling sugar, and sealers in a pot of hot water, filled the small space with a sweet steam, covering the two little windows and causing Mother to take a swipe at her face with her big white apron whenever she had a free hand. It was pickling and preserving time on the farm in Renfrew County. The swinging shelf, in the dug-out that served as our cellar, was just about bare, and what Mother was ‘putting down’ would see us through the winter at least, and hopefully until the next crop of produce was ready for picking. The summer had been good to our garden. Soft rainy days, hot sun, and cool evenings guaranteed a goodly crop of vegetables, and the raspberries from our back bush, strawberries growing

along the railway tracks, and chokecherry trees heavy with fruit, were all turned into jams, jellies and preserves. The crops were so ample, that Mother even had enough to peddle in Renfrew on Saturdays with her eggs, homemade butter, chickens and sticky buns. Yes, the summer had been good to us. My sister Audrey, much older than I was, helped Mother, but I was considered too young to do much more than Vice President & Regional Publisher Mike Mount mmount@perfprint.ca 613-283-3182, ext. 104 Regional General Manager Peter O’Leary poleary@perfprint.ca 613-283-3182, ext. 112 General Manager Seaway Gavin Beer gbeer@perfprint.ca Editor in Chief Ryland Coyne

hull berries, or pick beans out of the garden. As long as I was in on the action that was enough to satisfy me, however, and I was grateful to at least have a hand in what was going on for days in the summer kitchen. “Putting down” was always like a miracle to me. Especially when it came to the yellow beans that grew in great abundance in our garden. When I was sent out to bring in another dish-pan full of yellow beans, I managed to eat almost as many as I picked. Mother trusted me to pick only those that were ready for ‘putting down’, and to leave the smaller ones which would grow into a good length before you knew it! I would put the dish-pan of beans on the bake table, and take a tin pail and go to the pump in the yard and bring in fresh water and pour it into the pan. It

was my job then to wash each bean...not a handful at a time, but one bean after another! Then they were laid out on a clean tea towel, and patted dry. Mother fed them into big sealers, poured on boiling brine, put lids on tightly, and turned the jars upside down, and there they sat for two days...not one day, not three days, but two days. Mother said the timing was important, according to Aunt Bertha Thom on the next farm, who taught Mother everything she knew about putting down preserves and vegetables for the winter. The pot of spices simmering on the back of the Findlay Oval would be for the pickled beets. The day before, they had been boiled, cooled, skinned, and were ready for slicing. And then they would join the long line of pickles on the swinging shelf in the dugout.

Pickling and preserving went on for weeks. As crops ripened, they were turned into crisp pickles, preserves, jellies and jams with the sole purpose of seeing us through the long cold winters that were commonplace in Renfrew County, often cutting us off from going even as far as Briscoe’s General Store a few miles away. But we needn’t worry about ever wanting for something to put on the supper table. By the time the Fall weather started, the smoke house would be full of meat, the shelves in the dugout heavy with sealers, and soon the sauerkraut barrel would be in a corner of the summer kitchen alongside the salt pork. There never seemed to be enough money for frivolous spending on such luxuries as new hair ribbons when the

Spirit, togetherness, passion make Prescott Hockeyville By JAN MURRAY

News - For the Town of Prescott, the Quest for Hockeyville began in 2012. They had just completed another successful Leo Boivin Midget AAA Showcase, where they had a team from Latvia travel across the world to come to Prescott. Spirits were high, as they often are when someone says hockey in Prescott. There were more than a few suggestions of “Why don’t we try for Kraft Hockeyville,” explained Prescott for Hockeyville president Chris Veltkamp. “We had so many different stories and memories of how this town has united around the game of hockey.” It was then that most of the committee came together; from the Leo Boivin Midget AAA Showcase committee. Unfortunately they came together late and almost missed the entry deadline. Then, after the 2013 lockout season, there was no Kraft Hockeyville due to the player strike. “We decided that we should take one more shot at Hockeyville, as our 2012 bid fell short because we had started late,” explained Veltkamp. “Although we had a good run, we lacked some of the entries needed. So we began early in the winter planning our campaign with weekly events for the community, as well as lots of media awareness.” The Kraft Hockeyville Competition is an exciting contest designed to find out

From left, Rose Williams, Kim Squires, Mary Spero, Chris Veltkamp, Prescott Mayor Brett Todd, Ray Young, Prescott councillor were all smiles as Prescott for Hockeyville was given kudos for their placement in the top eight in eastern Canada of the competition. which Canadian community stands above all others by best exemplifying Canada’s passion for hockey. According to Kraft’s website, to be eligible, each individual must first complete the official registration form and then, nominate a deserving community and arena. After registering, each eligible indi-

vidual must submit a short story about why they chose that particular community which touches on the municipal spirit and love of the game. Now the ball was rolling. Geared up and ready, the Prescott for Hockeyville committee planned six main events; two per month until the announcement of the top eight was made.

“A lot of the awareness came in the form of social media along with word of mouth through excitement in our 2012 bid,” said Veltkamp. “The end results were good, the events were well attended and a lot of fun. We had an Amazing Race, Hockey Day in Prescott, Fort Town Shutdown, rally walk through town, house decorating contest, jerseys

and more!” “Kraft chose the top eight in the east and west based on our entries explaining why we would be a great candidate for Kraft Hockeyville. From there, there were three rounds of voting by the public to finally get to the winner,” Veltkamp explained. Veltkamp clarified that it was never really about the money. “It was the prestige of winning and the spirit that was raised in our community, people coming together, having fun, working together. That is way more important than the money.” Veltkamp, like thousands of others is very passionate about hockey and the fact that Prescott truly resonates this. “It is the history, the togetherness, the spirit, passion, dedication,” he continued. “Anyone who has ever stepped foot in our rink during a midget tournament in March can tell you in a second why Prescott is Hockeyville. I have people from cities across Ontario say what an amazing little hockey town Prescott is.” “I just want to say thank you to everyone in the town of Prescott and community who took part, volunteered, donated, and supported this campaign for Kraft Hockeyville. I am so proud I was able to be part of a great community rallying behind a game I love...and seeing our name on Hockey Night in Canada, made it all worth it!” Veltkamp added. The Town of Prescott shared the ‘Top 8 East’ with Richmond Memorial Community Centre, Beeton Community Memorial Arena, South Huron Recreation Centre, Arena Du Plateau, Credit Union Centre, Amherst Stadium and Bedeque & Area Recreation Centre. Each was awarded $25,000. The grand prize winner, receiving $100,000 in arena upgrades, the honour of hosting a 2014 – 2015 NHL pre-season game and a visit from CBC went to the Medican Multi-Plex in Sylvan Lake, Alberta. The Town of Prescott will ultimately decide how the $25,000 will be spent, but Veltkamp and the committee, as well as arena staff, have made recommendations to council as to how best the rink might be refurbished. The money must be spent on the rink, according to contest rules, and the town will initially foot the bill for the upgrades to be reimbursed later by Kraft. Suggestions as to how the nearly 50year-old Leo Boivin Community Center might be improved have so far included new glass, handicapped access, women’s change rooms, safety netting and enlarged team benches. - With files from Conan de Vries.

Family business continues to thrive after 150 years By CONAN de VRIES

Business - In a time when many new businesses fail within months, a family business that’s been in existence for 150 years is quite remarkable. The history of Thompson Timber Mart, located in the village of Iroquois, is the story of a business that continued to evolve and reinvent itself from the time of its founding — three years prior to Confederation—while remaining true to its core values, family values if you will, because the history of Thompson Timber Mart is not just the story of a business but a family tree. In 1864, 19-year-old Thomas Allen Thompson walked to Iroquois from his home in Hainsville, Ontario to seek employment. He initially worked as a clerk in Davy’s Grocery Store, while in his spare time, he cut blocks of ice from the Old Galop Canal, then sold and delivered the blocks to residents for their ice boxes. Soon there was an opportunity to purchase a lumber and general store from James Carman. This small store prospered and diversified its interests and was known as T.A. Thompson until Thomas Allen Thompson’s death in 1916, at the age of 71. Thompson’s widow, Margaret, and their son, Stewart Allen Thompson, then took over the business, which became known as T.A. Thompson Estate and continued as such until Margaret’s passing in 1936. Joined father in the business It was during this time that Stewart’s son, Donald Stewart Thompson, returned from the war overseas, where he served as a navigator in the air force, and joined his father in the business, which changed its name again, this time to S.A. Thompson & Son Ltd. In 1946, Donald married Anne Hodge and soon welcomed children Vicki, Randy, Janis and Jamie. They all soon learned that being part of a family business meant working at the store after school and on weekends doing whatever needed to be done. Under the younger Thompson’s

direction, the store would further diversify its business, which at the time included ice, coal, lumber and building supplies, by getting into oil. In the late 1950s, the store had to survive a challenge few businesses ever have to face. The community in which it had been founded and in which it thrived for nearly a century disappeared. With the construction of the St. Lawrence Seaway, the old village of Iroquois was submerged, and its residents, businesses and buildings were displaced to their present location. In the late 1970s and early 1980s, the Thompson family’s business become known as Thompson Homecare and became part of a national buying group. Eventually, Homecare would change its name to Timber Mart. Also during this period, Donald and Anne’s sons, Randy and Jamie, joined the business, as did sons-in-law Ken Hasson and Dale Charbot. Tragedy Tragically on March 19, 1981, the Thompson family suffered a terrible loss when their son Randy was one of five local Iroquois firefighters killed in a railway accident just north of the village. The enormity of losing five local firefighters was felt not only by the affected families but by the whole community. Later in l982, Donald sold the oil business to Universal Terminals, and the focus of the business became lumber and building supplies. Eight years later Stewart Thompson passed away, and the business continued on as S.A. Thompson and Son until Don’s retirement. Don sold the business to his son, Jamie, and sonsin law Ken Hasson and Dale Charbot. They renamed the business Thompson Timber Mart. This partnership lasted for 24 years, until Dale Charbot left to pursue a career in real estate. The store is now owned jointly by Jamie Thompson and Ken Hasson, and over the years, five generations have, at one time or another, worked in the family business.

Six-day 83rd annual North Augusta Labour Day Festival kicks off Aug. 27 By CONAN de VRIES

Events - September is not far off, and it’s getting near time for summer’s last hurrah at the North Augusta Labour Day Festival. The 83rd edition of the popular six-day event runs from Wednesday, Aug. 27 to Monday, Sept. 1, and will once again offer entertainment, attractions and amusements to put a smile on everyone’s face. “There’s something for everybody,� says Bev Carr, a member of the North Augusta Education and Recreation Committee, which organizes and hosts the festival year after year. “It’s a nice little festival. We put on a good variety of attractions.� Indeed, there are more than 50 different events on the festival’s jam-packed schedule, which offers an eclectic mix of attractions—from sporting competitions to contests to shows and sales and demonstrations—not to mention a parade. Several tournaments will be going on at different times throughout the festival, including slo-pitch, horseshoe, volleyball and euchre, and there will also be a Jell-Oeating competition, tug-of-war, egg toss, and a hula-hoop contest. Also returning will be the ever-popular log-sawing and nail-driving competition, in both men’s and women’s divisions. There will also be a photo contest and, for the kids, a colouring and drawing competition, both beginning on the first day of the festival. Then on Sunday afternoon, there will be the popular frog jumping

booth and, on Saturday, a rib-cookoff. “It’s like a mini Ribfest,� says Carr. And throughout the weekend, the North Augusta Education and Recreation Committee will be manning a food stand at Woody’s Place restaurant. Some of the entertainment slated for this year’s festival will reflect the event’s Western theme, including a Country Hoedown with music by The Journeymen on Saturday night. That same night there will be a King and Queen contest, also featuring a Western theme. One of the big draws during the festival is always the car show, which will go on Sunday afternoon and feature more cars than ever. “The car show just gets bigger and bigger every year,� says Carr. There will also be a larger craft market this year, and the North Augusta Amateur Talent Show, which runs Saturday afternoon, is always a popular event. And the entertainment doesn’t stop when the sun goes down. There will be an outdoor movie on Friday night, and on Friday, Saturday and Sunday, a chance to look up into the heavens during astronomy night. That’s not all, though. The schedule is still dotted with many other popular and fun attractions, among them a prince and princess draw, village-wide garage sale, music with Reynolds VanderVelde, kids crafts and Tribek Inflatables, old-timers fastball, a scavenger hunt, ecumenical church service on Sunday morning, car

rally, Touch-a-Rainbow horse show, silent auction, music by Jamie and Friends, interactive displays by the Grenville Fish and Game Club, wagon rides, children’s races, Bingo, appearances around the festival by Sammy the Clown and also illusions and sleight-of-hand by Ripple Effect Magic. Then, of course, there is the parade, which will be in keeping with the Western theme and will wend its way through North Augusta beginning at noon on Monday. And there will be awards handed out in several categories to the best of the parade entries. A schedule this full of great attractions and fun stuff to do doesn’t come about by itself; it takes a group of committed volunteers planning and working well ahead of time to put such an event together, but every year it proves worth the effort. “It’s for everyone to come out and have fun,� says Carr, “but it’s also to raise money for the community.� Though there is no admission fee to enter the festival grounds or take part in many of the events, the proceeds from some of the concessions and the registration fees for certain attractions do help raise money for the North Augusta Education and Recreation Committee. The committee uses this money to help support a variety of community enterprises, often focused on children, such as little league ball and soccer, as well as Christmas and Easter celebrations. “All the money goes back into the community,� says Carr.

out Caesar (Terry Crews). The Expendables make it out, and get Caesar to a hospital, but it’s at that point Barney decides it’s time to disband the team. Barney is still going after Stonebanks, and with the help of Bonaparte (Kelsey Grammer), he puts together a new team of Expendables. These guys are young, hungry and ready for action. Everything goes right to plan until Barney gets blown off a bridge, and everyone else gets captured. In order to rescue the new team Barney has to get back the old team. From there it’s all out war. So why does The Expendables work when a lot of other action films fall apart? It’s because The Expendables isn’t trying be anything it isn’t. They

aren’t trying to act, they aren’t worried about dialogue, and there’s no need for character development. This film is all about explosions, improbable action sequences, and as much ammunition as you can put in the air. The Expendables is what it is and what it is, is some of the best action of the summer. It’s hard to know where to begin with a cast this large. First off I don’t think they even bothered with a script. It seems like they were just ad libbing one-liners the whole time, which is awesome. These guys have no problem making fun of each other and themselves. You watch them, and it feels like a bunch of friends having a good time. Not to men-

tion each one is an outstanding action hero in their own right. Stallone, Statham, Lundgren, Crews, and Couture are fantastic. Kellan Lutz, Rhonda Rousey, Victor Ortiz, Glen Powell, Wesley Snipes, Antonio Banderas, Kelsey Grammer, and Harrison Ford are all fine additions to the cast. It’s always fun to see Schwarzenegger and Li mix it up, and as villains go, for a film like this you couldn’t ask for better than Mel Gibson. The Expendables 3 is an unapologetic action film, and some of the most fun you’ll have at the theatre. Mark Haskins’ column is a regular feature.

Golden Gears Car Club hosts third annual car show and concert Aug. 24 Events - One of the summer’s biggest events along the Seaway is set to take place on Sunday, Aug. 24 as the Golden Gears Car Club hosts its third annual car show and concert at the Iroquois Locks. The car show can attract up to 300 vehicles from eastern Ontario and northern New York. Add to that the sounds of good-time rock and roll from Eddy & the Stingrays and you have the makings of a memorable summer afternoon. In an effort to encourage more people to come out and enjoy the event, admission for spectators is free this year. Visitors will be encouraged to make a donation to help defray the costs of the event. The date has been moved from September to late August this year to help wind up the summer in style. The timing of the day’s activities has also been moved ahead to take advantage of a bit more daylight for drivers to get home before dusk. The car show runs from 9 a.m. until 3 p.m. and the band will perform from noon until 2:30 on the covered stage at the Iroquois Locks. Lots of prizes up for grabs For car owners, there are plenty of door prize and trophies for various categories of vehicles, and everyone can take part in the 50-50 draw. Again this year there will be a variety of vendors offering vehicle accessories and all things automotive. For those who arrive early, the Iroquois members of the South Dundas Volunteer Fire Department will be doing a vehicle rescue demonstration at 10:30, using the Jaws of Life, always a

fascinating presentation for the youngsters. There’s no need to pack a lunch; on hand again for the show and concert will be the food concession operated by Terry Palmer of the South Mountain area. His crew can handle a crowd with speed and precision, offering beef or pork on a bun, sausages and more. In the event of rain, there will be a number of large tents to provide shelter and the band will be playing on the covered stage. Remember to bring your lawn chair. Membership is over 80 The Golden Gears Car Club now boasts over 80 members, made up of classic car owners and car enthusiasts. The group is a re-incarnation of a club that operated in the Iroquois area from the mid-sixties to the early 1970s. The club was revived early in 2012 with a two-fold mission: the preservation and restoration of classic cars, and a desire to help their community. The Golden Gears have hosted several “Show & Shine” events throughout the summer and have been visiting similar events hosted by other clubs. Group members have brought home trophies from shows in Brockville, Cornwall and Aylmer, Quebec to name a few. In addition, the club operated the annual car show at the Canada Day celebration at the Iroquois Locks on behalf of the local Lions Club. The club also held a food drive in Morrisburg in early August with proceeds going to the Dundas County Food Bank, and was instrumental in a car show and food drive held in Cardinal on Aug. 10.

Harvest Days

Photos by DOREEN BARNES

Entertainment - A 1911 portable steam engine, model 45 owned by Tom Quinell was hooked up to a Case thrashing machine to beat out the grain from the sheaves, at right. Harvest Days takes place annually in August which allows for a non-profit organization, Antique Wheels in Motion, to demonstrate farm machinery on land north of Prescott. Prior to this annual event, members cultivate the land using the 50 plus year old farm equipment to prepare the ground, plant the seeds and harvest the crops for demonstrations. Harvested one week before the show, sheaves are set up in stooks to air dry. These are used for thrashing. Above, playing music throughout Saturday at Harvest Days was Leftovers from South Mountain.

Quiet room gives cats sense of security and belonging Lifestyle - Wilma is one of our long time hidden gems. She came in with her sister as an unsocial youngster. It is amazing how “the quiet room” (a cageless room with lots of climbing shelves and hide in holes) will give unsure cats a sense of security and belonging. The cats in this room are from different backgrounds but the common thread is they needed time and unconditional tender loving care. They have created bonds between each other and because of that they trust us

humans. When you go into their room and just sit on the bench our “shy”, “timid” and once “unsocial” felines will be rubbing against your legs and head bumping your hands within minutes. The cats in this room will choose you to be their family and not the other way around. Wilma has been with us at the Gananoque & District Humane Society for four years. She is spayed, up to date with vaccines, and micro-chipped. She also comes with six

weeks of pre-paid health insurance which is included in the low August Special price of $100. Please come to visit her at the shelter and see if she chooses you! You would then have a friend for life. The shelter is at 85 Hwy 32 just north of the 401 at Gananoque, and is open to the public from 9 a.m. to noon Monday through Saturday. Phone 613-3821512, email humanesociety@bellnet.ca, follow us on Facebook, or visit our website at www.ganhumanesociety.ca.

Business — Ontario housing activity will regain momentum through the course of 2014 before easing later in 2015, according to the third quarter 2014 CMHC Housing Market Outlook Canada Edition released recently. After declining in 2013, Ontario annual home starts will slow to 57,100 units in 2014 before stabilizing in 2015. Ontario starts will range between 50,900 and 63,400 units over the course of 2014 and 2015. “An improving economy by 2015 and less out-migration to western Canada will provide support to the broader Ontario housing market. As home prices continue to rise, albeit at a more modest pace, demand will shift to less expensive housing both by type and geography,” said Alex Medow, CMHC`s senior market analyst. “Consequently, we remain more bullish on the less expensive resale market and less expensive higher density housing sector. Ontario existing home sales will gradually lead the market higher with MLS sales growing to 202,500 units in 2015 from 197,900 units in 2014. MLS sales will range between 192,400 to 214,753 units this year and next. Ontario home prices will grow at a slower rate over the forecast horizon.

Women at the Fox Run create lapghans for Palliative Care By JAN MURRAY

News - The ladies at Fox Run by the River Retirement Residence in Gananoque have found a brilliant way to not only spend quality time together, doing something they love, but to help others all at the same time; they are making lapghans. The ladies were meeting once a week to socialize. They would each bring whatever project they happened to be working on at the time and congregate together for some social time while working on their own projects. Sandra Richardson, activities director at Fox Run chuckled, “We have quite a good group; quite a vocal group. They can tell when we get together because it isn’t just the clicking of needles, it’s a lot of talking and laughing and carrying on.” When resident and friend Marion Nash recently passed away, her husband

From page 29

Ed donated all her yarn and wool to the group. “When she passed away, Ed asked me if I could use any of her yarn,” Richardson explained. “Now we have a massive box of yarn.” Remembering Marion Nash, Richardson recalled fondly, “She was one of the few people I know who could knit and talk and watch TV all at the same time and not miss a stitch on extremely complicated patterns.” Marion had been part of the knitting group at Fox Run by the River and they had been knitting caps for preemies for the past two years, during their social time. There were also mitten sets they had made for the schools. There was such a grand variety of yarns and colours that the group decided to knit/crochet lapghans in order to use all the bits and pieces and make creations with a wide variety of gorgeous colours. Richardson called palliative care in Brockville and they said they would love for them to donate the lapghans and so, they began in January of 2014. Some of the ladies in the group have not knitted or crocheted in many years. Resident Irma Breckenridge added, “I hadn’t knitted or crocheted in 60 years when I joined the group!” For another, Madge Saunders it had been at least five to six years. Even for Richardson, this was a whole new adventure. “I had never crocheted before. Muriel

taught me how to crochet,” Richardson smiled. It really is all the little tips and tidbits that you learn from someone more experienced that makes all the difference in the world to the look of your piece. Muriel Bennett piped in, “I started knitting and crocheting when I was three years old.” Her love for what she does is evident not only in her pieces but in her eyes when she speaks of the pieces the ladies make when they are together enjoying one another’s company. Another long time knitter in the group is Nel Vanwijk. “I started knitting and crocheting at the YMCA 40 years ago.” It was then that she started teaching young girls how to knit and to crochet. To date the ladies have made approximately 27 lapghans that they plan to donate to Brockville’s Palliative Care very shortly. Thereafter, they will continue to make another version of the lapghan, one which is more of a rectangular shape, which they plan to donate to Brockville’s Dialysis clinic. Thanks of course to Ed Nash, who donated all of the yarn. Richardson added, “So many times people will be in wheelchairs and an afghan will be too big but a lapghan just covers your lap and they can be so incredibly colourful.” Lapghans have been around for many many years, though often when you mention them people look at you like you have a third eye and ask, “af-

ghan?” like you have no idea what you are talking about. This idea is basically the same but on a much smaller scale. The average lapghan is either 30 inches square or another common size is 4ft by 3ft. Knitting and crocheting isn’t something only your grandmother does anymore. It is slowly coming back. As Bennett reminded “Everything is in a cycle, and crocheting and knitting are coming back.” Richardson spoke of an article she read recently of a young woman who had taken fine art in school. She started to knit but was not getting the colours she wanted and so she taught herself how to die the wool to the shades that she wanted. Word got out and the younger generation, seeing this young, hip woman making her own wool, her own colours and her own creations began to draw interest. Before she knew it she went from teaching one or two young people into teaching entire classes. It isn’t hard to do if you have a good teacher. Ed Nash, who unknowingly started this ball rolling, agreed that donating the lapghans to Palliative Care is a brilliant idea. He’s happy to see the yarn put to such good use. Lapghans have been made and donated to several charities around the world for years for a variety of reasons. Sometimes they are given to hospitals for preemies, sometimes to legions for veterans, for Alzheimer patients and so much more.

Vehicle monitor helps bridge technology gap for drivers Lifestyle - I had a chance this past week to try out two very different, but useful products; one to help you diagnose those pesky ‘check engine’ lights and the other to help you save big on gasoline bills. The first product is from a Newfoundland-based manufacturer, Lemur Wireless Vehicle Monitors. Lemur is headed by a very young and innovative group of engineers whose goal is to take the mystery out of vehicle ownership and operation by putting some very easy-to-understand information at drivers’ fingertips. A few years back I tried their first trio of monitors, the EconoDriver, SafeDriver, and AlertDriver. All of these included a small and sturdy plug-in unit that connects to the diagnostic port found under the dash of all vehicles manufactured since 1996. In the industry this is referred to as the OBD port (On-Board Diagnostic). The EconoDriver and SafeDriver come with two display fobs that provide such info as instant and average fuel economy, cost per km driven, aggressive braking and acceleration counts, top speed and so on. For vehicles without trip-function displays, the EconoDriver provides great info on keeping your fuel bill in check. The SafeDriver is a great way to keep tabs on younger family members behind the wheel (and those of other ages) as it keeps track of aggressive driving and speeding. Their newest product, the BlueDriver, uses that same OBD port to communicate with your smart phone or tablet in order to deliver information on ‘check engine’ light codes and emission test readiness. A free app can be downloaded to any iOS or Android device and when in range the BlueDriver will provide trouble codes, live screen shots of engine running data, freeze-frame pages, and so on. While there are quite a few DIY scanners on the market today, none of them are as small as the BlueDriver and none will deliver the info that this unit does. It also bridges the technology gap between the average driver, who knows little of what goes on under the hood, but can be quite proficient in operating an ipad or smart phone. For each code the BlueDriver finds, it can generate a report for your specific vehicle that contains information such as: code definition, possible cause(s), and top/frequently/other reported fix (es). The unit retails for $99.95 and can be ordered online at www.lemurmonitors.com or by calling 1-866-304-0054. The second product I tried out was just as useful but a lot more fun. From my good friend Dan Witmer at Gear Head Canada in Bells Corners, I borrowed a 2014 Sym HD-200 scooter for a neighbourhood tour on a recent sunny afternoon. The scooter industry has grown by leaps and bounds as more and more drivers are discovering the benefits of leaving smaller fuel consumption footprints while enjoying the exhilaration of open-air riding. Unfortunately some manufacturers have grown their price too and stickers over $10K are not uncommon these days. As Dan put it, “for that kind of money you can drive a car!” So when he saw this trend developing he

Car Counsellor BRIAN TURNER

did his research and brought a solution for his customers that has been well received. Sym scooters and motorcycles are built by Sanyang Industry of Taiwan, a company founded in 1954 and which has worked with such giants as Honda to become a credible world-wide supplier of fun and functional rides. My tester, the Sym HD-200 carries an MSRP of only $3,999 (before taxes and destination fees). The Sym HD-200 is a two-seater open floor-board style scooter powered by a 171 cc liquid-cooled engine putting out 15.3 hp and 11.3 lb/ft of torque. Power to the 16” rear wheel is delivered through a continually variable transmission, meaning no shifting or clutch, just twist the throttle and go. A 31” seat height means easy on and off and a comfortable stance for riders of just about any size. Controls and instrumentation are well laid out and easy to become accustomed to. Front and rear brakes are controlled by large handle-bar levers. The dash pod includes a large analogue speedometer and a better-than-average fuel gauge in terms of accuracy, and a coolant temperature gauge. A nice-to-find feature is a signal lamp clicker that makes enough noise to hear it, even in noisy traffic. This keeps the permanently-on signal lamp syndrome down to a minimum. A 60-watt headlamp is almost twice as powerful as most scooters are equipped with and will ensure you can see ahead on dark roads as well as being seen by oncoming traffic. The electric start easily brings the engine to life and a well designed exhaust will keep neighbour complaints at bay. Acceleration was surprisingly brisk, even for someone with my mass and this scooter will easily top out at over 100 kph with no difficulty or confidence (top speed is rated at 122 kph). A single front and dual rear shock set-up handles the bumps and combined with a well padded seat kept the ride relatively smooth. A 220 mm front disc brake and 130 mm rear drum brake worked well to bring the HD-200 to confident stops. My ride had a small windscreen, but if your diet doesn’t include the odd insect, I’d recommend a full face helmet. Another unique feature to the Sym is a side-stand as well as a center stand. The side stand comes in handy for short stops but it has a very strong return spring, requiring a rider to keep their foot on it until it returns to its storage position. This scooter weighs in at only 297 lbs and has a rider/passenger capacity of 396 lb. Under-seat storage is lockable and large, holding an extra large helmet with ease. To improve this capacity, the battery is stored under the floor board. A fold away storage hook on the inside of the front fork panel will keep bags out of the wind and wet.

The Sym HD-200 delivers 70 mpg and comes with a 24 month warranty. A great way to save fuel and enjoy warm weather commuting! If you have any questions, opinions, or stories on anything automotive please drop me a line, [By email to emc@ perfprint.ca or directly to bjoeturner@ hotmail.com listing ‘Question for the Car Counselor’ on the subject line or by post to Record News Communications, 5 Lorne St., P.O.

Existing Natural Gas Pipeline Existing Compressor Station Existing Compressor Station (additional compression to be added)

TransCanada would like to take this opportunity to update you on the Eastern Mainline Project. The proposed project is needed to meet firm service commitments following the proposed transfer of a portion of the Canadian Mainline capacity to crude oil service from natural gas services as a part of the Energy East Project. The project is also required to meet growing market demand for new supplies of natural gas from the U.S. Northeast. TransCanada is proposing to add new natural gas pipeline facilities to the existing Canadian Mainline system in Ontario. These new facilities would be added in sections between Markham and the Township of South Dundas, on the southern arm of the Eastern Triangle. The preliminary scope of the project included the construction of approximately 370 km of pipeline. TransCanada has now finalized contracts with commercial shippers and determined a refined scope in order to ensure the appropriate amount of capacity is constructed to meet TransCanada’s existing and new firm contractual commitments. The proposed project scope now includes approximately 250 km of 36 inch pipeline with the addition of nine new 11 MW compressor units to be installed at five existing compressor stations.

and Quebec with a safe and reliable source of natural gas. TransCanada has considered a number of routing options as part of the consultation process with interested landowners and stakeholders. An initial proposed route was shared in project materials that were provided at Open Houses held between May and June 2014 and during other outreach activities this year. During the Open Houses and as part of ongoing conversations with landowners and stakeholders, we received important feedback and have refined the route for the pipeline. We are continuing our engagement efforts and welcome any additional feedback as we refine route deviations. We welcome any questions or comments you may have. TransCanada anticipates submitting our application to the National Energy Board in the third quarter of 2014. Engagement will be ongoing throughout the NEB review process and the construction and operation phases of the project. For more details on the updated Eastern Mainline Project route please visit our website. You can reach us through email or phone at the contact info listed below.

important to support the communities we live and work in and hope that this new playground equipment is enjoyed by the children of this great community.” Elizabethtown-Kitley Mayor Jim Pickard noted that, “TransCanada’s contribution to this playground equipment is a big boost to the community’s dedicated fundraising effort as well as corporate donations and is a welcomed contribution from our TransCanada neighbour.”

Brockville Sergeant works with Ceremonial Guard By James Benning

News - The men and women of the Ceremonial Guard of the Canadian Armed Forces in their scarlet tunics and bearskin headdress proudly parade on Parliament Hill rain or shine.  The Ceremonial Guard (CG) is one of Canada’s most recognizable military units. For over 50 years the Changing of the Guard has been a top Ottawa attraction, having thrilled thousands of visitors on Parliament Hill, at Rideau Hall and at the National War Memorial. In order to complete such a task there is an elaborate network behind the scenes that is ready to support the soldiers of the CG in the completion of their duties and tasks. These soldiers need to be provided with basic necessities such as food and shelter. Enter Brockville’s Sergeant Josh Hopper. He has nine years’ experience with the Brockville Rifles, and is a veteran of Afghanistan. During the summer this individual is tasked to CG. He plays a crucial role in the operation of the organization. The sergeant’s primary duties are to be the Barrack Warden at Carleton University. Hopper is responsible for making sure that the 400 members performing Submitted photo ceremonial duties on Parliament Hill receive adequate housing at Carleton Brockville Sergeant Josh Hopper stands outside Carleton University residence.

He then assigns them a room, personally inspects the room and makes sure that the soldier receives a meal card for access to the Carleton University Dining facilities. Hopper also acts as an ambassador between the organization and the university, facilitating repairs and acting as the first point of contact in case of an emergency. Without the logistical efforts of soldiers like Hopper, the Ceremonial Guard would not be able to successfully conduct their duties on Parliament Hill.

Police warn of several ongoing scams

News – Brockville Police would like to remind the community again about a couple active scams taking place. These scams are not new but people are still being taken advantage of. The first one involves a phone call being received advising of a computer problem. Residents are then advised to attend their computer and open it allowing access. They are charged a fee for fixing a problem that never existed or worse yet, their identity is jeopardized. Police remind people to ignore these requests and never allow remote access to their computers or credit cards. If you suspect there is a problem with your computer seek local computer expertise. The second scam involves people trying to sell items on Kijiji etc. They receive a cheque from someone posing as a buyer, which amounts to more than the price of the item for sale. They are then asked to attend a money transfer outlet and send the proposed buyer a wire transfer for the difference. These people are not legitimate and the cheques are not cashable. These scams have been going on for a while now. We ask the public to be careful and avoid any transactions that raise a flag. Submitted by the Brockville Police Service.

Entertainment - The Hoolies, a Celtic and folk music band played while people were sampling Beau’s All Natural brews paired with appetizers from local establishments. A very content and satisfied group of individuals attended Raising a Pint at the Brockville Museum on Friday evening, Aug. 15, sampling five of Beau’s All Natural brews, paired with appetizers from the Georgian Dragon, The Barley Mow, Bud’s on the Bay, The Brockberry and The Mill. Celebrity servers for the evening were Doreen Barnes, TVCogeco F.Y.I., Andy Wheeler, SNAP, Leeds Grenville MPP Steve Clark, Bill Welychka of CKWS and Dave Beauschene of Beau’s All Natural Brewing Co. The proceeds from this event will go towards the Open Drawer Project, eventually giving the public complete accessibility to the museum’s collection, artifacts and photographs online.

Clark calls for action on amendments to ATV regulations Clark said in Legislature. “(The minister) can make these amendments, which have the support of MPPs, municipal leaders, businesses, the Ontario Federation of Anglers and Hunters and ATV enthusiasts.” Prior to last fall’s debate, Clark received dozens of emails supporting the amendments from ATV club members and individual riders from across Leeds-Grenville, including the Johnstown ATV Club and Thousand Islands ATV Club. Clark said it’s worth noting Minister Del Duca spoke in support of the motion last fall prior to his recent appointment to cabinet. “I was proud to bring this issue to the new minister’s attention on behalf of the ATV riders I represent because I know it’s important to them. As I said in my statement, I’m hopeful the minister will put his supportive words last fall into action so we can get this amendment made,” said Clark. A video of the statement is available on MPP Clark’s YouTube site here: http://youtu.be/ gSXkuh6ySLo Submitted by the office of MPP for Leeds-Grenville Steve Clark.

News – It’s time to update Ontario’s Highway Traffic Act (HTA) by amending an outdated regulation and treating all ATVs equally, Leeds-Grenville MPP Steve Clark said in a Member’s Statement at Queen’s Park recently. Clark called on Transportation Minister Steven Del Duca to amend Regulation 316/03 under the HTA to allow side-by-side, four-seat side-by-side and two-up all-terrain vehicles on Ontario roadways under the same conditions other ATVs now enjoy. “Without this update to the legislation, we’re denying these vehicle owners the opportunity to get out and explore our province and pursue this great outdoor activity,” said Clark, adding increased opportunities for ATV riders would provide a much-needed boost to the tourism economy in rural Ontario. In his statement, Clark noted the Legislative Assembly unanimously passed a non-binding motion last November directing the Minister of Transportation to make the amendment to Regulation 316/03. “There’s no need for a re-run of the debate,”

$1,000 to a first year student, or $1,000 to an individual in a graduate program and is registered in a recognized university. Candidates must have a demonstrated interest in pursuing a career working with individuals who have a developmental disability. Applications are reviewed by a selection committee and successful applicants will receive a one-time award. Emily Sharpe Sharpe was awarded $750 towards her first year of attending Seneca College to take Early Childhood Education Program. She is the daughter of Yvette Sharpe and stepdaughter of Brian Plant from Gananoque and attended Gananoque Secondary School. For both semesters Sharpe did her coop at Linklater Public School working with children to help with their homework as well as helped a boy who had autism. Sharpe also helped at Thousand Islands DayCare and it opened her eyes to working with children of all ages and how to use different approaches to the task at hand. “It showed me that I not only love working with kids, but has shown me I have a passion for helping the children and making them believe in themselves,” added Sharpe. In fact Sharpe received a Co-op Award of $100. There was only one other student that received this award. Upon graduating from Seneca College, Sharpe planned on taking the twoyear Autism and Behavioural Science Program, but has rethought this and will likely work for a year prior to returning to school. Lindsey Kilgore Registered in the four-year Bachelor of Science in the Nursing Program at the University of Ottawa, the $1,000 Award will definitely help with tuition and books. The daughter of James and Whitney Kilgore, Lindsey chose this career path after volunteering at a local nursing home and seeing the passion and love that the nurses gave the residents. When a family member was diagnosed with cancer and other health concerns, Kilgore saw firsthand the care, skills and compassion that the health providers had. In addition to the stint at the nursing home, Kilgore travelled to El Salvador for two weeks on a mission trip. “I had the opportunity to volunteer in a children’s hospital in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit, as well as the Paediatric Oncology Units,” said Kilgore. In addition, Kilgore renovated and re-supplied an Orphanage House that housed abused and abandoned children. She feels that with her personal experience, education and volunteerism, it has given her a foundation to pursue her chosen career and to help others who are facing disabilities. “It’s one thing to have a job as a nurse,” said Kilgore, “however it takes a special person to be a nurse.”

THANK YOU

The family of Johanna (Ann) Melissen wish to express their heartfelt thanks and appreciation to Dr. Gill, Bayshore homecare and nursing staff for their excellent care during Mom’s last weeks. Many thanks to neighbours and friends who supported us during this difficult time. Many thanks also for messages of sympathy and donations made to Heart and Stroke and Cancer in Mom’s memory. Dropping in to visit or bringing food and flowers all made us feel comforted during this sad time. Thank you to Father Brennan, Deacon Larry Judge, servers, church choir and CWL honour guard of St. Mark’s church, Prescott for the beautiful mass in remembrance of Mom’s life. Thank you to St. Mark’s CWL who provided the delicious lunch after the service. Thank you to Hulse Playfair and McGarry’s staff for their excellent service and compassion. God bless all who helped in any way.

FLAHERTY, Carol Anne - In loving memory of a dear wife, mother and grandmother, who left us four years ago August 27, 2010. You were a precious gift from God above, So much beauty, grace and love. You touched our hearts in so many ways, Your smile so bright even on the bad days. You heard God’s whisper calling you home, You didn’t want to go and leave us alone. You loved us so much, you held on tight, Till all the strength was gone And you could no longer fight. He had called your name twice before, You knew you couldn’t make Him wait anymore. So you gave your hand to God. And slowly drifted away, Knowing that with our love We will be together again some day. Sadly missed by your loving husband Karl, and sons Karl, Kevin and Michael.

Sports - The Brockville Braves Golf Committee successfully held their ninth annual Charity Golf Tournament on Saturday, Aug. 16 at the Prescott Golf Club. Golfers took to the course under less than optimal skies and ended up completing their round a little less dry than anticipated. None the less, the 125 golfers completed the game with a smile on their face and enjoyed the opportunity for volunteers, billets and families to become better acquainted with one another. Each player took home a prize, enjoyed a steak supper and had some fun with the silent auction. Each year the committee makes a donation to a charity of their choice and for the third year in a row has chosen Making Play Possible as this year’s recipient. Justin Turner is seen here that day, with Jim Turner looking on.

Get into the right competitive mindset to advance your game this is where there is more green between the flagstick and the edge of the green, you eliminate big numbers being made. And at the end of the day isn’t that what competitive golf is all about putting up low numbers? So if you play competitive golf, tournament golf, play the game being more target aware than golf swing aware. Competitive golf is so much more fun than social/casual golf because there is actually something on the line and you will learn something about yourself along the way, you will soon see what you are made of under pressure.

Gill plays his fair share of senior tournaments each season and hopefully someday soon he will reap the rewards from all the hard work he puts in. of any trouble that they may be faced with. And they don’t fire at every flagstick either, they usually play to the fat side of the green. If you get too aggressive and play at the flag and if you lose your shot on the short side, it won’t take you too long to figure it out. You will find out pretty quickly how tough it is to get up and down when you do this. Playing to the fat side of the green,

your target. I spent 15 years of my competitive golf days thinking more about my golf swing than hitting my ball to my target. When playing in a competition, you must focus more on your target and what will influence your ball’s flight. Things like temperature, wind conditions, the lie your golf ball is on and play your natural ball flight. Experience sure is your best teacher, learn how you react under competitive pressure. The more you are in a particular situation, the more you will learn how to handle it. Like I said a couple of weeks back, if your mind’s eye is focused on your target, it will direct your muscles to do what they need to do to have you hit your golf ball to your intended target. Here’s a good example of what I am saying here, whenever I used to miss a green with my approach shot in my ‘technique’ oriented days, I would put more emphasis on my chipping/pitching technique and my results were not very good in most cases. But when I switched to being more ‘target’ oriented, I would actually pick a spot on the green where I wanted my ball to land based on the type of shot I was playing. The results here were much more successful leading to much lower competitive scores. Great players don’t always use their drivers off every tee, they use whatever club they need to, to get them to their ideal go to yardage or keep them short

Sports - This week’s column is a very fitting follow up to last week’s club championship column. In fact, this topic is so very near and dear to my heart. I used to hear fellow golfers tell me how I should win every tournament I play in because of the way I used to hit the ball. I kept hearing them say “Nobody hits the ball as well as Johnny Ryan does.” It was nice that they felt that way but unfortunately I didn’t feel the same way. What was holding me back? My confidence, my trust in my golf swing and the self belief that is needed to play good competitive golf. When I finally started to believe in myself, my competitive golf game totally turned around, I started to win tournaments and I found myself in contention a lot more than I used to be. That experience in itself makes you stronger and better prepares you to handle tournament pressure. My big break through came when I put more emphasis on target awareness than golf swing awareness. I had to trust my golf swing and trust it will help me hit the ball to my target more consistently. When playing competitive golf, you don’t want to be out there worrying about your golf swing otherwise you will be in big trouble. Hey you can’t get a printout from your computer if you are downloading or programming it can you? In golf you can’t hit quality golf shots if you are more worried about your golf swing technique than

Thompson Timber Mart Staff Celebrate 150 Years of Service

More and more people tackling a construction job or a renovation project are discovering that all their building needs can be met in one place, and people are now coming from farther and farther away to take advantage of the expertise and wide selection of building materials that Iroquois’ Thompson Timber Mart has to offer. The Thompson family has been in the retail business in the Village of Iroquois since its founding in 1864, making this year the store’s 150th anniversary and giving the Thompson family a reason to celebrate. Though it didn’t join the Timber Mart group until the mid 1990s, the store has been in the Thompson family since before Confederation and in that time has dabbled in many different trades—from oil and ice to coffee and tea—but always, the core of the business has been building supplies—and that is just as true today. “We’re a complete building centre,” says Jamie Thompson, who co-owns Timber Mart with his brotherin-law, Ken Hasson. The store offers expert service from 12 knowledgeable full-time employees, and two part-time workers, and provides customers a wide selection of all manner of building material. Whether the customer is a professional contractor or a do-it-yourselfer, Thompson Timber Mart offers anything they might need, from ICF basements, floor systems, windows and doors, to ceilings and roofs. “They can do everything from top to bottom,” says Jamie’s sister, Janis Thompson. The store offers custom kitchen cabinetry by KraftMaid and Aristokraft as well as many options of bathroom vanities, as well as a complete line of PPG paints, and all its employees can answer customers’ questions and give good advice on the best choice of material and installation. “We have a very dedicated staff with many years of experience,” says Jamie. As the reputation of the business has extended farther afield, Thompson Timber Mart has been drawing

clients from as far away as Ottawa, Kemptville and Brockville. With that kind of growth, the time may eventually come when the store needs to expand, and the business does own a large tract of land in the village that may at some point become the site of a new and enlarged Thompson Timber Mart. In the meantime, the Thompsons continue to invest in the business and improve their customers’ experience, as they did recently with the purchase of a boom truck, which enables the store to offer more versatile material handling services, such as second-floor and rooftop deliveries. Since its founding 150 years ago, Thompson Timber Mart, originally known as T.A. Thompson Estate, has thrived and been a staple of the Iroquois business community. In this, its anniversary year, the Thompson family wants to recognize the role the community has played in the longevity of the business. “It’s been a loyal community over the years,” says Jamie. On Saturday, August 23, there will be a barbecue in front of the store, with the local Iroquois and Matilda Lions Club cooking up hotdogs and hamburgers. The barbecue will run from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Later that night, beginning at 8 p.m. and running until 1 a.m., there will be a community dance at the Iroquois Legion. A DJ will keep the music spinning, and a light lunch will be provided. There is a $5 admission fee. Tickets are on sale now at the store—and selling briskly. All proceeds from the barbecue and the dance will go towards the Dundas County Food Bank and the South Dundas Animal Shelter. “It’s our way of thanking the community, and having a little fun,” says Jamie. The store is also holding draws for valuable prizes provided by several of its key suppliers. Beginning August 20, four draws will be held for prizes that each total no less than $500 in value. There will be one each from PPG Pittsburgh Paints, Canwel Building Materials, Alexandria Mouldings and Gentek Windows. Ballots are available at the store and entries are restricted to one ballot per household per day, and a person can win only once. But even if you don’t win a draw, the Thompson Timber Mart flyer comes into force on August 13 and will offer many great deals on all sorts of items until August 23. “The flyer will have some very aggressive pricing on ten or so items, and there will be some very good pricing on Gentek vinyl Joyce Bartholomew and Jamie siding,” says Jamie. Thompson, of Thompson Timber Mart If longevity is a sign of quality, there is no doubt Thompson in Iroquois, show off a sample of one Timber Mart is the place to go for any kind of building or of the many types of flooring that the construction need, and what better time to stop by and check out store offers, in addition to a wide sewhat has made the store so good for so long than during its 150th lection of every other kind of building material. anniversary.
