DAYS THURSDA In the hustle and bustle of the return ONLY!

to school last week, at least two fouryear-old Kindergarten bus students in the Arnprior area were dropped off at the wrong locations.

Fortunately, the incidents had happy endings thanks to the mothers diligently following their young students to school. Furthermore, educators and bus officials say they are taking steps to ensure it doesn’t happen again.

In one case an upset Galetta mother alerted the Renfrew County Joint Transportation Consortium that her kindergarten student had got off the school bus at St. Joseph’s school instead of Walter Zadow on the first day of classes (Sept. 1).

In the other, an Arnprior area mother took to the mom2mom Face-

book page to ask if anyone else had experienced school bus problems, as her four-year-old was dropped off last Wednesday at the wrong bus stop with no adult present.

Carly Andrews told the ChroniReload 3 cle-Guide that she has been “overwhelmed” with responses from others who faced similar experiences since her Facebook post.

“This is clearly a pervasive prob10 lem, and needs toSEPTEMBER be taken very seriously,” she said.

Carly Chicquen said she isn’t blaming anyone in particular, but said her daughter had a “scary experience.” She raised her concerns with Renfrew County Joint Transportation Consortium general manager Robert White and school officials and says she found them to be understanding and helpful.

“And the last two days have been great,” she said last Thursday after two days of no bus problems. Although on Friday, she wasn’t able to follow her daughter to school for the first time, “so I could have an anxiety attack,” she added, half seriously.

WATER RESTRICTIONS

The Watering Restrictions By-law 04-14 is designed to regulate and control the usage of water, within the Almonte Ward, in the hot summer months.

Between May 1st and September 30th each year there are limitations on who can water and at what time.

Odd number houses may water on odd calendar days and even numbered houses may water on even numbered days.

Watering may occur between the hours of 5:00 a.m. and 9:00 a.m. and 7:00 p.m. and 11:00 p.m. each day and from only one connection. Midday is the hottest time of the day and the water is more likely to be wasted through evaporation when watering at this time.

Announcement from Mississippi Mills Accessibility Advisory Committee (AAC)

The AAC has nominated former Municipal Councillor Jim Lowry for

Ontario’s new “Accessibility Champion Award”.

To celebrate the 10th anniversary of the Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act (AODA), the Government of Ontario in partnership with AMCTO (Association of Municipal Managers, Clerks and Treasurers of Ontario) has launched a one-time award: the AODA 10th Anniversary Champion Award. The award recognizes outstanding individuals who demonstrate leadership, passion and commitment in the promotion of accessibility and inclusiveness in their community. Jim Lowry served 29 years in municipal government - first as Councillor and Reeve in Ramsay Township and then as Councillor on the Mississippi Mills Council after amalgamation. Jim has also served on numerous public and private boards and associations, including the AAC from 2005 until present day. An excerpt from the AAC submission to AMCTO: “While Jim Lowry has spent more years on the AAC than any other member and is happy he has helped accessibility issues in the community, he recognizes that AODA legislation has certainly helped Mississippi Mills to make improvements. Municipal buildings are now accessible. Parks are inspected by the AAC and paths improved. The private sector has also made accessible improvements: museums and local churches have installed ramps and elevators. Many businesses such as banks and stores have installed ramps and automatic doors. The NLAS hall has an accessible, level rear entrance and improved stair handrails.”

The 2015 AAC recognizes Jim Lowry as Mississippi Mills’ accessibility champion. We hope the province echoes our declaration - stay tuned for the official announcements this fall.

Mom shadowing bus praised Continued from front

All excited about the first day of school Accompanying their children to McNab Public School for the first day on Sept. 1 are Lindsey Parkes and Ed Lee with Jacob Lee (Junior Kindergarten) and Broady Taniwa (Grade 3). The rural school on Stewartville Road runs from 9:15 a.m. to 3:35 p.m. Parents are asked to not send their students to school before 9 a.m. as there is no school supervision on the school grounds before then.

The Renfrew County Joint Transportation Consortium takes 14,000 public and Catholic board students to and from school every day. is “trying hard” to ensure every student gets to where they should be with minimal upheaval, she said. The “busing people have been extremely helpful,” she added, noting “everyone’s hearts are in the right place … everyone wants this to work.”

She said it was “unfortunate” a student was dropped off at the wrong school, but it provided a timely reminder to all participants in the system to make sure all the checks are in place.

White praised Chicquen for sharing her concerns with him and shadowing her daughter on the first day of school, but agreed all parents aren’t able to do that.

He said the incident was distressing. “I really feel for that mom,” he said. “I sure it caused a great deal of anxiety.”

However, he suspected it was an isolated incident and not indicative of a widespread problem. As of Thursday, he had not heard directly about the wrong drop-off incident or any other major issues, although he said his department has been very busy answering calls.

White pointed out that transporting 14,000 students to and from school daily is a complicated task. “There are a lot of variables … it’s a complex delivery model,” he said.

He explained busing of students is much more complicated than it was a generation ago, what with societal changes (joint custody, day care, students as young as three going to school) and much fewer stay-at-home parents.

This year’s first day of school was more hectic than normal with all public school kindergarten students attending, instead of having a staggered opening as in the past.

It takes bus drivers “a while” to get to know all their new passengers, especially if they have up to 50 students, White said.

Keeping bus students safe is a partnership between the bus drivers, school officials and families, he said. “Parents are an important part of the partnership,” he noted.

Asked why a four-year-old was dropped off when no adult was present, White said bus drivers are encouraged to ensure there are adults around to greet kindergarten students, and even those in Grades 1 to 3 in some cases. However it’s not a “hard and fast rule,” he said, explaining that it can depend if there are older students present and how close a stop is to a students’ home.

“There is a degree of flexibility needed to make the system work,” he added. “Out in the country there usually aren’t any problems … it’s some of the group stops in town that have been a challenge,” he said.

“Wherever it is, it’s nice to see parents … or caregivers waiting for young students when they get dropped off the bus.”

As well arranging for supervision at bus stops, parents can help minimize mistakes by having K-tags on students’ backpacks prominently displaying their bus route numbers and drop-off locations. However, having youngsters names on the packs is not encouraged for safety reasons.

Chicquen said her daughter had the proper bus and school information displayed. Her daughter gets dropped off at Leaps & Bounds Daycare at A.J. Charbonneau school, then takes bus to Walter Zadow. But it goes to St. Joseph’s school first, where the confusion occurred.

Leaps & Bounds supervisor Shelly Mosseau said there was a great deal of confusion on the first day of school with so many “little ones” taking the bus for the first time. A bit more help was probably needed to help students on and off the right buses, she said.

However, everyone in the system

Economic promises dominate area campaign Derek Dunn

derek.dunn@metroland.com

Well before the main parties released their costed platforms, the race to establish which party is up for the task of dealing with the Canadian economy was well underway.

Renfrew-Nipissing-Pembroke candidates are busy backing up their leaders’ messaging.

Green leader Elizabeth May opposes austerity measures during recessionary times, and is indifferent to small deficits. New Democrat leader Tom Muclair vows to balance the budget his first full year in power.

Liberal leader Justin Trudeau favours small deficits to get the country out of what is being called a “technical recession.” Conservative leader Stephen Harper wants to stay the course and not run a deficit.

Local Conservative candidate Cheryl Gallant could not be reached for comment.

Green candidate Stefan Klietsch dismisses the topic of to-go-or-not-go into a deficit as posturing.

Public sector spending is needed when the private sector is lagging, and vice versa, he says. Those who say they oppose it are attempting to appear prudent with tax dollars. He is uncomfortable with austerity measures used as a means to boost an economy.

“I tend to be wary of cutting services for the sake of cutting services,” Klietsch said.

“Especially if you are getting valid returns for the amounts spent.”

Comparing government to a homeowner, he said at times it makes sense to sell unnecessary items like sports equipment the kids have outgrown. But to get rid of the family car is usually a bad idea.

“If you’ve lost your way to work and can’t get there, that defeats the purpose.”

He noted that the U.S. collapse of 2008 validated Keynesian theory, and it showed that 40 years of trickle-down economics was a failure.

However, when asked what strategies the Greens would put in place, Klietsch said fiscal stimulus won’t help with the current recession. The economy doesn’t need tax dollars to deal with job losses. The losses aren’t that severe, he maintains, adding the recession is more about oil companies having much lower profits.

The Greens will eliminate personal taxes on incomes below $20,000. By 2019, they would reduce the small business tax rate to nine per cent and raise corporate taxes over four years from 15 per cent to 19.

They will also work with the provinces and territories to increase taxes on tobacco and alcohol.

NEW DEMOCRATS

NDP candidate Dan McCarthy also pointed to economist John Maynard Keynes and how governments can have a “levelling effect” on their economies. The wild highs and lows prior to 1929 were common with laissez faire capitalism, but levelled out when the welfare state was introduced.

McCarthy made a point to say his party still believes in social programs even though Mulcair has talked about avoiding deficits.

“We are not preaching austerity,” he said.

“It’s that the plan of the last 10 years where we put all our eggs in the oil basket, energy superpower and all that – that has gone nowhere. Over 400,000 job losses.”

McCarthy wants to get rid of the inequity gap, and would drop the Conservative family income splitting policy as one way to achieve that. They would also remove massive subsidies to big oil and close tax loopholes on CEO stock options; those are measures to shift wealth from the rich to middle and lower classes.

Some of that money, he added, would also go toward manufacturing in central

Canada and research and development. An NDP government would also encourage corporations to invest some of the $200 billion in profits they are sitting on, and close loopholes that allow for stockpiling of money in offshore banks.

He talked of how the Conservatives cut some 300 jobs from the Canadian Revenue Agency, the body charged with investigating tax evasion.

The NDP vows to not raise personal income-tax rates and will cut the small-business tax rate from 11 per cent to nine. They would reverse changes to the tax-free savings account (TFSA), and honour the expanded Universal Child Care Benefit.

Their big ticket item to date is the creation of a $15-a-day national child care program, and create or maintain one million affordable child care spaces.

LIBERALS

Liberal candidate Jeff Lehoux is convinced austerity would not be good for the economy at this moment. He said other parties are not being forthright; one year from now they will have to spend into a deficit to fund infrastructure and other programs.

“Austerity wouldn’t be good for our economy right now. They are being dishonest and are not able to follow through.

They’ll need to kick start the economy,” Lehoux said. “We are for having three years of smaller deficits to get people working again.”

The Liberals vow to cut middle-class income-tax bracket from 22 per cent to 20.5, and create a new tax bracket of 33 per cent for incomes above $200,000.

They, too, will cancel income-splitting for families, referring to it as a $2-billion tax break for the top 15 per cent of Canadians. They would offer a monthly Canada Child Benefit that would help families with children living on less than $150,000.

They will also cancel the TFSA increase to $10,000, and retain tax breaks for small businesses.

Harper, meanwhile, has charged that both of the “other guys” would run the country into debt – though his opponents counter that his government has posted seven straight deficits and many economists now believe the current budget, presented as balanced, has been knocked into the red, too.

Richler said it is not so much that the large department store approach is failing Sears. In some communities it works, in others not so much.

Conservative candidate Cheryl Gallant opens Arnprior office Derek Dunn

derek.dunn@metroland.com

Conservative candidate Cheryl Gallant held an official office opening in Arnprior on Sept.

1.

About 15 supporters gathered at the Willis College Arnprior campus to hear the incumbent Renfrew-Nipissing-Pembroke MP talk about her party’s accomplishments and goals.

She listed a number of tax-cutting measures to benefit voters should the party win the Oct. 19 election, including: • By 2019 reduce small-business tax rate to nine per cent from 11 (corporate tax rate was reduced from about 22 per cent to 15); • The annual contribution limit for tax-free savings accounts would increase to $10,000 from $5,500; • A home renovation tax cut that would offer 15 per cent of the cost of permanent “substantial” renovations to homes, condos and cottages. The tax credit would apply to renovation costs between $1,000 and $5,000, allowing a taxpayer to get back up to $600 a year; • A family tax cut for couples with kids under the age of 18 to split up to $50,000 of income.

“We believe the best people to raise our children are Mom and Dad,” Gallant said. “Our party is all about controlled spending, keeping taxes low and balancing the budget.”

She lamented dropping oil prices as harming Canada’s economy but said that increased trade means job growth.

Trade agreements will benefit agriculture, a significant part of the riding’s economy, she noted.

“Farmers are happy because of these trade agreements,” she said. “And we’ll have more to come as our platform is revealed to us.”

The Arnprior office location, on the second floor, resulted in some negative feedback from supporters with mobility issues. But Gallant said the party must be prudent with donations, and the college generously offered the space.

“We have to pay fair market price; Elections Canada has its rules,” she said. “We’ve had some people complain about not being on the ground floor. But I feel confident these offices will work well for us.”

Gallant’s campaign chairman is Bernard Doyle, who is the financial controller of Willis College. He praise her as being “instrumental” in bringing the campus to Arnprior.

“I wouldn’t have volunteered my time if I

didn’t believe in her and the party,” Doyle said.

He encourages all students – “red, green, orange or blue” – to observe and learn about the democratic process at work.

“You are getting an inside view,” he said.

On local issues, Gallant lauded R0013234340 the expansion of Highway 17 from Arnprior to Scheel Drive. But as for calls to speed up the four-laning of the stretch with many fatalities north to Pembroke, she noted it is in the province’s domain.

The home renovation tax credit should benefit suppliers and those in the trades. The new veterans’ charter will serve many living on or near Garrison Petawawa.

On Energy East – the proposal to convert a natural gas pipeline through the riding to oil – she said

the National Energy Board will decide. Her concern is with safety.

“Other than that, it’s in the hands of the NEB.” Gallant also has campaign offices in Renfrew and Pembroke.

OPP conducts bust on Caruso Street

Russett Drive to be closed beginning on Monday

Staff

So much for using Russett Drive to avoid the construction on Highway 17 outside Arnprior.

The County of Renfrew will begin improvements on a culvert on Russett Drive on Monday, Sept. 14.

During the consruction period, Russett Drive will be closed to all through traffic between Flat Rapids road and Mill Ridge Road. Detours will be posted.

Meanwhile work on White Lake and Burnstown roads will continue to mid-September and Lochwinnoch Road paving continues, the County advises.

OPP’s drug officers conducted a major drug raid on Caruso Street in Arnprior on Sept. 3.

As a result, a 21-year-old Arnprior man faces serious charges.

Members of the Organized Crime Enforcement Bureau - Drug Enforcement Unit (DEU), Emergency Response Team, Canine Unit, and Renfrew-Arnprior OPP Detach-

ment executed a Controlled Drugs and Substances Act Search Warrant at the home.

They report quantities of cocaine, cannabis marijuana and methamphetamine were seized, along with paraphernalia indicative of drug trafficking.

The 21-year-old was arrested and charged with the following: • Possession for the Purpose of Trafficking of Schedule I substance CDSA 5(2); • Possession for the Purpose of Traffick-

ing of Schedule II substance CDSA 5(2); • Breach of Probation of the Criminal Code 733.1(1).

Key solution missing to Canaan Road gate problem Derek Dunn

derek.dunn@metroland.com

McNab-Braeside’s new council is finding it difficult to please everyone when it comes to gating roads and pathways in the township.

The latest example has to do with Canaan Road, the site of forest parties, mud-bogging trucks and bonfires that threaten to burn out of control. Located between Burnstown and Goshen roads, Canaan Road is considered unmaintained but at the moment remains accessible by all.

When council members were first made aware of a spring fire that nearly set a forest aflame, they began to consider a solution. Most emergency vehicles can’t traverse the muddy and torn-up road, though specialized equipment can.

Constituents were asked their opinion on how to prevent massive damage in the area. Gates at both ends was council’s decision.

However, Mayor Tom Pecket said at the Aug. 11 regular meeting that it was council’s intention to provide all

property owners along the road with keys. That way they could get by the padlock and bring a truck or ATV inside.

Less than a dozen upset area property owners were at the meeting, with another seven letters submitted to the township. They said a township letter sent to each area property owner didn’t mention anything about keys, nor did a Chronicle-Guide story on the issue.

Some oppose the gates entirely, others favour the gate but with a key for those who own property along the road.

“Yes, there was a miscommunication in the letter. I apologize for that,” Peckett said. “It was intended all along that keys would be provided to the landowners.”

At least one resident speaker said the gates should be large enough to prevent ATVs from getting by.

Deputy Mayor Brian Armsden indicated the issue is a tricky one. On the one hand, council wants to ensure safety, but on the other hand the road belongs to the township: the general

public has a right to access it, even if unmaintained.

“It seems we are darned if we do and darned if we don’t,” Armsden said. “Just when we think we have made a good decision, it comes back on us.”

Coun. Scott Brum agreed, saying council set out to protect “these property owners from vandals.”

He asked township staff about signs that say the road is unmaintained. Public works director Ryan Frew wasn’t sure of the status, but that sometimes they fall down or are removed.

Coun. Heather Lang said she is

“perplexed” by how the road used to be maintained but is no longer.

Frew said periodic work was done in the past – a culvert was replaced – and it used to be graded once a year.

It was never maintained in winter, he said. “It’s grown over completely now; it can’t be graded,” Frew said.

Lang asked why it was allowed to grow over. Frew explained there are no building permits (which generate tax revenue) along the road, no homes, and that the township’s money was better used elsewhere.

Were the township to modernize the road – which council is not considering – it would cost at least

$150,000 up front; the road would need to be widened, meaning the purchase of land along the two-kilometre stretch, plus upkeep costs.

The township’s lawyer said the road cannot be closed, but gates would be legal.

The township ran into some blowback early in its term after gating off a trail to prevent snowmobiles, and in another spot that leads to an owner’s land who wants to offer access for tractors.

The issue will be discussed again at the Sept. 15 meeting.

Rural Canadians can help ease the Middle East crisis, as well For many Canadians the images of little Alan Kurdi, his lifeless body washed up on the Turkish shoreline, cut to the heart of what has been a tragic calamity raging in the Middle East.

Decent people who want nothing of violence and destruction, who risk their lives and the lives of their families to escape civil war, are too often failing as too many avert their eyes.

The question of why is quickly followed by the urge to do something. Maybe it’s military intervention, maybe humanitarian aid, maybe make it easier for refugees to find safe haven in Europe and beyond. Maybe it is all three.

It is that feeling of wanting to help everyday Syrians and others caught up in such a terrible conflict that has this newspaper prepared to help.

Exposure offered

If an organization in the public or private sector – a municipality, service and faith-based groups, or business – is prepared to sponsor a refugee and/or a family of refugees, we’d like to publicize your efforts.

If they are having difficulty working through the process, perhaps we can help shine a light on the roadblocks. If a local municipality is following the City of Ottawa’s offer to partner with the Government of Canada in rescuing refugees, we would like to know.

It is not well known that groups of as little as five private citizens can organize to sponsor refugees with United Nations status by working with pre-approved organizations such as Lifeline Syria in Toronto.

One place to get started is at Canadian Council for Refugees, an umbrella group of agencies working with refugees. As well, there are also plenty of groups that accept donations, includ-

ing World Vision, The Canadian Red Cross and Care Canada.

Awareness, linking interested individuals and organizations, promoting events, and providing information to navigate governmental processes: all could be made available.

Of course, opponents to such fundraising and sponsorship initiatives will not be excluded from coverage.

Some people believe in taking care of Canadians first.

Others say bringing in more refugees can’t be done cost-effectively.

However, the humanitarian crisis caused by Syria’s civil war is unprecedented since the Second World War. The scale of suffering and the possibility the situation will worsen demands a significant world-wide response.

Canada, prosperous and fortunate, has offered that response before. More than 37,000 Hungarians were admitted in one year during the mid-1950s. In the late 1960s, almost 11,000 Czechs were brought here in less than a year.

And it was a proud time when, in 1980, some 50,000 South-East Asian refugees – boat people largely from Vietnam – found peace in Canada.

There are other examples before and since, right up to the present day. But, according to many on social media and in conversation on the street, there is a strong feeling of helplessness over the current crisis. There are many filled with compassion without having a place to express it.

Offering to sponsor a family may ease the feeling of helplessness. The humanitarian response doesn’t have to only come from the big cities. Even if it means linking with larger groups in Ottawa, small players from Canada’s less urban areas can make important contributions.

Be careful of the hand that offers the gifts Continued from page 9

The proposed Energy East pipeline is not yet approved, and, in fact, the Ontario Energy Board raised some serious concerns.

There is a lot of resistance throughout the entire country and certainly within Renfrew County.

Accepting money from this company will certainly make it difficult to vote objectively on whether or not this pipeline should be accepted for Renfrew County, and it seems unwise for our municipal leaders to put themselves in that position.

We hope that others are not tempted by offers of financial support.

It seems that TC is being generous to this area.

The company is ironically a sponsor for the 2015 World Freestyle Kayak Championships held in Beachburg from Aug. 30 to Sept. 5.

This world-class whitewater area, by all accounts, is unparalleled in the world and is a priceless asset to this region.

The fact that TC sponsors an activity on this section of the Ottawa River is a jaw-dropper.

They are proposing to ship Tar Sands bitumen, diluted with toxic chemicals, through 24 waterways (streams and rivers) in the Valley which drain into the Ottawa River.

They could be the very ones who ruin this for generations to come.

When a leak occurs, this bitumen is heavier than regular oil and sinks to the bottom of a body of water.

So far, there is no method for completely recovering it.

TC’s proposed Energy East pipeline is incompatible with recreational activities like whitewater kayaking that depend on clean and healthy rivers.

We are a County that needs money and that is not being denied.

But we must be careful of the hand that offers it.

Because so many residents are against this Energy East project, we would suggest that this source of money is currently not a popular one.

Energy East pipeline project won’t affect natural gas supplies Derek Dunn

Derek.dunn@metroland.com

Ontarians need not worry natural gas supplies will be depleted by the Energy East project, according to a new agreement.

TransCanada, the company proposing the conversion of a natural gas pipeline to oil, has secured an agreement with the three largest gas distributors that will see sufficient capacity and reduced transmission costs.

“We have heard the (natural gas companies’) concerns and worked with them to address issues in a way that best met our collective objectives,” said TransCanada CEO Russ Girling. “Most importantly, this agreement will benefit consumers

with the safe, efficient and more affordable delivery of North American produced oil and natural gas to fuel their everyday lives.

Terms of the agreement include: • the natural gas companies’ issues related to both Energy East and the

SMALL TOWN CHARM INCLUDED

Eastern Mainline Project have been addressed; • TransCanada will size the Eastern Mainline Project to meet all firm requirements including gas transmission contracts resulting from both 2016 and 2017 new capacity open seasons plus about 50 MMcf/d of additional capacity; • TransCanada will also ensure a long-term benefit to gas consumers in eastern Ontario and Québec (Eastern Triangle) of at least $100 million through to 2050.

Concerns over the supply and cost of natural gas – from large corporations to rural municipal elected officials – have been major hurdles for Energy East.

However, fears over safety mechanisms should spills occur remains the central issue for most opponents.

BARBARA ADAMS AND PATTY MCLAUGHLIN/SUBMITTED

Take a peep at the Wild Bird Care Centre On Thursday, Sept 17, the Mississippi Valley Field Naturalists (MVFN) begin a new season of monthly natural history talks, this year with the theme ‘Naturally Special Places’.

All talks take place in the social hall of Almonte United Church, 106 Elgin St. beginning at 7:30 p.m.

Guest speaker will be the Wild Bird Care Centre’s Patty McLaughlin, also known to many in the area as leader of MVFN’s popular Young Naturalists program for 611-year-olds.

McLaughlin holds a Bachelor of Science in Zoology and a Master of Science degree from Carleton University. In 2013, she received the Elizabeth Le Geyt Award in recognition of her outstanding contribution to public awareness and care for wild birds.

During her presentation ‘Sparrows, Warblers, and Hawks, oh my! Taking a peep at the Wild Bird Care Centre’, McLaughlin will introduce her audience to this special

place in nature, the Wild Bird Care Centre.

She is a full-time staff member of the centre located on Moodie Drive in Nepean.

Established in 1981 by the late Kathy Nihei, the centre was incorporated in 1991 as the Ottawa Valley Wild Bird Care Centre and has operated at the Stony Swamp Conservation Area location since 1992.

It is the only place in the Ottawa Valley dedicated to the care, treatment, and release of sick, injured and orphaned wild birds.

The centre cares for over 2,300 wild birds annually.

Throughout McLaughlin’s captivating presentation, naturalist members expect to learn more about the history of this naturally special place, as well as details of their daily operations, including stories of the most common patients and some of its more unusual avian patients.

She will talk about the most difficult, yet memorable birds, raptors. “You may think it’s a thrill to spot one (of these birds

of prey) in the wild and catch a glimpse of their power and speed, but I will tell you what it is like to work with them up-close,” she says.

“I will describe their typical personalities, tricks we use to keep them comfortable while in captivity, some very neat facts about raptors, as well as miraculous recoveries - I have lots to share.”

McLaughlin hopes to be accompanied for her presentation by her ‘usual stuffed suspects’ as well as ‘Indy’ the definitely nonstuffed, defiantly living American Kestrel.

The public is welcome to join Mississippi Valley Field Naturalists at 7:30 p.m. on Sept. 17 for what promises to be a lively and informative presentation.

Refreshments and discussion follow the talk and there is a non-member fee of $5.

Weather, turnout ‘exceptional’ for White Pine Festival John Carter

john.carter@metroland.com

Arnprior’s White Pine Festival provided an “exceptional weekend” of entertainment with the new model train show being a big hit.

That is how the festival’s main organizer, Mike Marcil, summed up the three-day event that ran Aug. 21-23.

He said the weather co-operated for the sixth straight year at the festival, resulting in a “fabulous turnout.”

He said the organizers of the model train show were “thrilled” by the response and have promised to come back next year with even a bigger show with more time to prepare.

The car show “exploded” this year with 103 vehicles entered, he said, crediting Tracy Smith for stepping in for her father, Art, and doing a great job in organizing the event.

The festival bingo at the Arnprior Legion was also a big success, raising about $2,500 for charity.

The climbing wall and zip lines downtown were bit hits, Marcil added.

As well, the comments from food and street vendors were all positive, he said.

“Many have already booked for

The worst scenario (not for him) is Debbie Reid gets soaked, which she took good-naturedly. next year.”

Marcil said organizers are looking at a few changes for next year with helicopter rides and a lazer show Saturday evening at Robert Simpson Park “if funding permits.”

However, it is important to keep the festival offerings free so the event remains cost-effective for families, he said.

He said the festival is normally two weeks after the Arnprior Fair,

but it was only one week later this year because the fair dropped back a week to accommodate midway availability.

The seventh annual White Pine Festival is going back to two weeks

later next year, as it will run Aug. 2628, he said.

Finally, Marcil issued a “huge thank you to all our terrific sponsors” for making the 2015 festival possible.

Pineridge anniversary has fun, serious sides The Pineridge Children’s Centre celebrated its 15th anniversary Aug. 28 with a late afternoon of celebration and ceremony. The centre invited Arnprior Legion veterans service officer Mel Porter, at left, to wield the ceremonial shovel in a tree-planting. A memorial garden with a maple tree to honour all veterans is taking the place of three large pine trees that had to be taken done in front of the centre. The area is named Pete’s Patio in memory of Pineridge owner Barry Blier’s father, a veteran. The ceremony also included the singing of Oh Canada and the cutting of an anniversary cake. Arnprior Coun.

Ted Strike dropped by to read a certificate of congratulations from the town. After the ceremony, students and staff moved to the back of the centre to be thoroughly entertained by a Pineridge favourite, Junkyard Johnny and his ‘symphony’.

Right, from left Kaylee Blanchette, Kinley Ward and Brenda Benoit respond with the thumbs up and roars of laughter to Junkyard Johnny’s exploits.

Stephen Dodd notes that Fox’s dream was to raise a dollar from every Canadian for cancer research. In the 35th year of the Terry Fox Run, there are 35 million Canadians, he said.

“So why not see that dream realized in his honour again?” he asks.

“Terry started something very important for our entire country and we

honour his vision every year. If he could see the progress that has been made in cancer research and treatment because of him, he might be here today to actually see it.”

The Tri-Cities Three Amigos, three mayors in communities where Fox grew up, are challenging other mayors across the country to help their communities’ runs to raise at least $1 from each resident – all 35 million Canadians – in honour of the 35th anniversary of Terry Fox Marathon of Hope.

They say mayors can publicly challenge neighbouring communities to raise more funds or enter more participants in the Terry Fox Runs.

The Mayors’ Challenge also suggests getting local schools, chambers of commerce and faith communities on board, hosting a fundraiser among city staff and residents, and challenging business community and local sport teams to support the cause.

In Arnprior, Mayor David Reid has indicated his support for the challenge.

Stuart Robillard of Robillard Sand and Gravel gives credit to the top soil - it’s for sale as well - for the size of his oxheart tomato, which he started with a seed, of course.

He brought the tomato in from River Road to the Arnprior Chronicle-Guide office on Aug. 31. It weighed in at two pounds and 2.5 ounces on the scale. Robillard noted the plants have reached up to 10 feet, so he has to stretch up to pick the tomatoes. The soil gets the credit again for the plant size. Eating the tomato of that particular size would take three days, he said.

Graphic facilitator helps with creating strategic planning, vision Scott Campbell

The question remains though, what kind of work goes into being a graphic facilitator? Stonehouse believes there are only three others who use the title in all of the Ottawa area.

It’s really all about visualization, she explained. She cited a fact that maintains processing visual information uses 80 per cent of a person’s brain cells.

A graphic facilitator is a rather unfamiliar term to many people.

Not only does Kara Stonehouse of Arnprior know what it means, she is one since she made the decision a few years ago to form her own business, AHA! Graphic Facilitation.

“It’s taking the thinking, talking and (then) drawing it,” said Stonehouse. “I use the main points, vision, strategy, the themes and conclusions. I pull them all together for the results.”

According to the Wall Street Journal, some companies have hired people to act as graphic recorders so they can create ideas and draw diagrams during meetings. The result helps bring to light numerous concepts for their employees.

Stonehouse discovered the concept of graphic recording in Sweden where she was completing a mas-

ter’s degree in sustainability leadership.

“It’s been amazing,” she said, adding that the concept has proved popular in conferences to assist with strategic planning and visual thinking. She has even stood on stage with the speaker and drawn live to offer up a recap of what was being said In the past, Stonehouse doodled for the City of Ottawa and other organizations.

Stonehouse grew up along the Madawaska River and went to Carleton University before taking her endeavors overseas to

England and Sweden.

The name of AHA! Graphic Facilitation is obviously meant to highlight that moment of clarity hits an individual. “The clarity of seeing and the insights to bring success,” she said. “It is the collective impact.”

Stonehouse has offered her facilitation on an individual basis. “Their vision or strategic planning and their life drawn in a picture,” she explained.

One man wanted to reach his goal of starting his own business and Stonehouse’s creation was his motivation.

Stonehouse is willing to offer her unique services to the businesses of Arnprior. If they want to look into strategic planning and collaboration with the hopes of engaging and inspiring staff, she can help. They would have a literal picture they could put on the shelf or wall to look at every day.

Overall, the biggest skill behind being a graphic facilitator is listening, to be able to gleam that nugget of information the other party is trying to express, Stonehouse explains. The drawings can be easy and basic.

She noted though, the biggest concerns she’s heard about attempts at graphic recording from others – they can’t draw.

She has decided to try to remedy that situation with an offer of introducing graphic recording at Queensway Carleton Hospital starting Oct. 2.

“It is just simple drawing and simple symbols to use,” she said.

The significant objective of the workshop that Stonehouse hopes people will come away with, is the attitude, ‘I can draw!’

Kidney Walk is coming to Valley Sept. 26 that may have gone undetected.

Every step participants take on a Kidney Walk journey will provide hope for those living with kidney disease when they need it most. A diagnosis of kidney disease is lifechanging and impacts the entire family.

That’s why teams of friends and families are being urged to join together to walk in support of loved ones.

Organizers encourage people to create a team for the Renfrew Kidney Walk “to help make a difference.” It only requires a little time and effort, “but each step will provide hope to many.”

Registration is easy online at www.kidney-

walk.ca. The Kidney Foundation of Canada’s Kidney Walks are taking place in Renfrew and 40 other communities in Ontario throughout September and early October.

The Kidney Foundation of Canada works to improve the lives of all people affected by kidney disease through research, government advocacy, peer support, education and programs.

“Join the kidney community at Kidney Walk and help create a future without kidney disease.”

For more information, visit www.kidneywalk.ca or call Bruce Hill at 613-724-9953, ext. 4560 or email bhill@kidney.on.ca.

The Kidney Foundation of Canada is asking people across Ontario to take steps to fight kidney disease and join with their communities in a Kidney Walk early this fall.

The Upper Ottawa Valley walk on Saturday, Sept. 26 will start and end at the Ma-TeWay Park gazebo in Renfrew. Registration will begin at 10 a.m. with the walk to start at 11 a.m.

One in 10 Canadians has kidney disease and millions more are at risk. Nearly 10,000 Ontarians depend on life-sustaining dialysis treatments several times a week, over 1,000 are waiting for a kidney transplant, and countless others live with reduced kidney function

McNab-Braeside municipal public works employee Trevor Hamilton is one of the top drivers in Renfrew County.

Hamilton finished second in the Renfrew County Truck Roadeo Aug. 12 to become one of two area qualifiers for the provincial competition. That event is being held today (Sept. 10) in Barrie.

Accompanying Hamilton to Barrie is Cole Hawkins of Laurentian Valley, who edged him out by two points in the Renfrew County contest.

Hawkins had 373 out of a possible 420 points, while Hamilton had 371.

“I’m very pleased one of our employees finished second,” said township mayor Tom Peckett. “We

Marina open house a boost for pets, Lions The White Lake Marina’s open house was a great success yet again, despite falling on the same weekend as the Arnprior and Pakenham fairs and the Calabogie blues/ ribfest. As well as a free Arnprior Lions barbecue, there was a bouncy castle for children and a display by the Prior Chestnuts cancer survivor dragon boat team. From the open house the marina was able to contribute $500 each to the Arnprior Lions Club and the Arnprior and District Humane Society animal shelter. Belown, marina owners Pete and Andra Bettencourt present a cheque to the Arnprior Lions Club at the food trailer they have provided for the marina’s open house for the past seven years.

the 800-m race. The result was one for the record books, as she broke Diane Cummins’ Canadian standard of 1:58.39, a time that had stood since 2001.

Bishop ran a tactically perfect race to finish in one minute and 57.52 seconds.

It was the fastest time of the night out of three semifinals and easily booked her a spot to the final.

Her silver medal run followed on Saturday, Aug. 29 and the standings could have easily gone either way for the top three.

Bishop’s crossed the finish line at one minute 58.12 seconds, good enough for silver.

Marina Arzamasova of Belarus won the gold at 1:58.03 and Kenya’s Eunice Sum took the bronze with 1:58.18. It came down to 15-hundreds of a second between first and third.

Bishop took to social media to express the whirlwind of events.

“World silver medallist and Canadian record in three days! Pinch me!” she wrote.

“It still hasn’t sunk in, but I’m beyond excited and grateful for all of the support from family and friends.

“A huge part of this process was my coach, Dennis Fairall. The most patient, kindest and brilliant coach I know. I’m lucky to have been under his tutelage for eight years now.”

Bishop, the Opeongo High School graduate, added to what has been a very successful year, having raced her way to gold at the Pam Am Games in Toronto back in July.

New-look league, team for Arnprior Packers this hockey season Scott Campbell scottcampbell@metroland.com

Central Canada Hockey League Tier 2 (CCHL2) teams, including the Arnprior Packers, have already begun playing exhibition games, but the match-ups are just a warm-up for the official start for the season.

All 16 teams in the revamped league will be travelling to Perth for a showcase tournament Sept 11-13. Each team gets to play two games each.

The showcase will be the first real test for teams in the new league, formed when it was decided to replace the Eastern Ontario Junior Hockey League (EOJHL) and in a new loop down from 22 members to 16. While many

hockey officials and fans have seen positives to the change, others have not, particularly those in Shawville and Almonte who lost teams.

A few of the Shawville Pontiac players have found new homes, including Liam Poirier, who has been picked up by the Arnprior Packers.

Poirier, in his final year of junior eligibility, is one of the lucky ones, as most of the players don’t have an option for playing time this season.

Another senior player on the Packer roster this season is returnee Cole Allard.

The Packers split their first two exhibition games, edging the Ottawa West Golden Knights on Aug. 30 and falling to the Renfrew Timberwolves on Sept. 1.

Mitchell Sennett with two and Colby Co-

chrane and Dallas Farr with singles netted the goals against the Golden Knights in a 4-3 Packers win. Sennett, Farr and Corey Chaplin had three points each for Arnprior, which built up a 4-1 lead and held on for the win.

Peter Brooks and Nick Quade shared time in net.

Cochrane, Allard and Farr were the scorers in the 5-3 loss to the Timberwolves in Renfrew.

The Packers couldn’t hold on to a 3-1 lead in the game, giving up three third-period goals.

J.P. Peladeau and Calvin Williams minded the net for the Packers.

Two exhibition games remained with a rematch against Renfrew on Sept. 4 and Sept. 7 versus the Ottawa West Golden Knights (after early long

weekend press deadline).

Those stats will be wiped clean for the beginning of the regular season. Arnprior opens on Sept. 12 at the Perth showcase against the Prescott Flyers. The following day the team will take on the Ottawa Canadians.

Arnprior travels back to Perth on Sept. 18 for a game with the Blue Wings.

The Packers first game at home will be Friday, Sept. 25 at the Nick Smith Centre with an 8 p.m. start.

Free and golf are two words you never see beside each other in the Ottawa Valley.

Well the innovators at the Madawaska Golf Club .CA changed that on Sunday, Aug. 23, combining the two words to create one incredible day on the course.

Around 150 golfers of all skills and ages took advantage of beautiful weather and the opportunity to play a free round of golf on the club’s 18-hole executive course, Sumac Grove.

“The concept of the day was to show appreciation to our community and to promote Sumac Grove as a course for everyone,” said club manager Victoria Munro. .CA “We want to grow the game and give people the chance to try golf.

“The event was well received and the weather was perfect. It was a great day for golf.”

Things that go bump in the night for Mountain Creek’s tournament Wendy Tessier

Mountain Creek Women’s League

It was a dark and moon-lit night. Drivers passing by on White Lake Road (Highway 2) must have wondered at the plethora of bonfires and bobbing lights observed on the eastern horizon after darkness fell Aug. 21.

Aliens? Giant fireflies? Swamp gas? Wrong on all three counts.

It was Mountain Creek’s annual Glow-ball Golf Tournament.

After a wonderful steak dinner with all the trimmings, topped off with carrot cake (to better one’s eyesight), 86 intrepid souls braved the darkened course.

With the sun bedded in the west, the Glow Ballers headed out to their pre-assigned tees.

Three of each six-some team teed off, then a scramble ensued with much hilarity, whoops and hollers.

For the uninitiated, Glow Ball is a golf game where six-player teams tee up in the dark, try to hit fairways and greens, then putt to score with only three clubs at hand.

The greens are semi-circled with

fire-safe candles, the 200-, 150- and 100-yard markers are lit, and the flagsticks are hung with fluorescent lights. Players are provided with special “glow-in-dark” balls plus two spares, but heaven help you if you lose one.

Bonfires illuminate each tee box as well as any ponds or creeks to avoid any accidental ‘dips’ (although one did happen one year).

Long-time Mountain Creek members always up for Glow-ball fun are Erna and Egon Othmer.

SELL OUT

Mountain Creek’s Glow Ball Tournament sells out every year. Golfers, non-golfers, members, non-members: all are welcome to test their mettle.

Your sense of perspective and orientation are off in the darkm so it’s a heckuva lotta fun no matter your golfing skill level.

While many teams come in with sub-par scores, the true bragging rights belong to those who don’t get lost on their way back to the clubhouse.

Kudos to Jonathan Schaepper, his family, greenskeepers and kitchen staff who offer each year a most enjoyable event unique to our area.

Ottawa Valley’s Terry Murray back in the NHL with the Buffalo Sabres Scott Campbell

scottcampbell@metroland.com

The Ottawa Senators season opener Oct. 8 against the Buffalo Sabres will have a definite Valley flavour.

The first game of a new National Hockey League season for the two teams brings together the two prides of Shawville, Sens general manager Bryan Murray and Sabres GM Tim Murray. Adding to the Shawville connection will be the presence of Bryan’s brother and Tim’s uncle, Terry Murray, as assistant coach for Buffalo.

The teams capped their 2014-15 regular season on two very different notes. Ottawa made a remarkable and historic run into the NHL playoffs and Buffalo played out their schedule in a lock for last place in the league.

Terry Murray’s hiring was made official on June 18. Head coach Dan Bylsma announced the appointments Dave Barr and Murray as his assistants.

“The Buffalo Sabres are one of the more exciting young teams in the league,” said Terry recently, as he prepared for a move to Buffalo.

“We’re in a phase of teaching, developing and winning. That’s a great challenge. It’s a place that I’ve been several times before with other teams and I really enjoy that process,” he said.

“Playing in Ottawa always adds a little something to the game, not so much because Bryan is involved with the Senators but because there’s family and friends at the game or watching, and this is where I played junior for three years with the Ottawa 67’s.”

Like Bryan, Terry is one of 10 children of Rhoda and Clarence Murray.

He lived with his family on a farm for his first few years and eventually the move was made into Shawville to the house on King Street, which Clarence built himself. The street was also where Terry first encountered hockey.

“The first time I skated was on an outdoor rink in Selly Langford’s yard, at the end of King (Street),” Terry said. “All the kids that grew up in the end of town played hockey everyday on the rink; we’d have games with 15 players on each team, everybody playing at the same time, no system play, just having fun.”

1319 9th Line Beckwith Township

Hockey wasn’t always the priority either. He played a lot of different sports growing up from basketball, fastpitch ball, track and field events at school to volleyball and some baseball.

Terry’s NHL career began as a player when the California Golden Seals drafted him and then he had stints with the Philadelphia Flyers and Washington Capitals.

“Today’s NHL is faster than it ever was,” said Terry. “Today’s athlete is better coached, has a greater understanding of nutrition, rehydration and of the off-season responsibilities.

Golf day raises awareness of texting and driving

Unexpected twist as Juvenile Packers sent packing

Staff

If there ever was a time for players to give Juvenile hockey a go, Sept. 20 may just be the day to do it.

Doug ‘D.R’ Heeney, general manager for the Arnprior Juvenile Packers, received an unexpected message a couple weeks ago.

A decision had come down to exclude the Packers from the Lanark Carleton Mi-

A new campaign aims to raise awareness of a modern phenomenon taking the lives of too many on area roads.

Stop Texting and Driving is born out of the grim statistics: 6,300 injuries and 18 fatalities in the four years in Ottawa alone. Arnprior has also been directly touched.

Organized by Mark and Kathy MacKenzie of Appleseed Snow Blowing Service will host a day of golf at Sand Point Golf Course, Sept. 18, with registration at 11:30 a,m.

Golf, gifts, barbecue steak dinner, silent auction: it should prove a lot of fun for a good cause.

Sponsorship opportunities include: $1,500 hole sponsor; $2,500 lunch sponsor; $5,000 dinner sponsor.

nor Hockey League where the team has played for the last few years, even though Heeney was already preparing an Arnprior team for the upcoming season. Heeney remained positive about the team’s forthcoming try-outs, but it was hard to hide the disappointment on such an abrupt decision.

“Level of play and distance were the reasons given,” said Heeney, otherwise there was not much elaboration.

The Juvenile division includes teams

from Richmond, Carleton Place, West Carleton and Osgoode Rideau.

Heeney has reached out for Hockey Eastern Ontario Minor to launch an investigation.

“If there’s a full roster of (Arnprior) kids (19 to 20 players) interested in playing at the try-out, I will continue the effort for appeal.”

The try-out is at the Nick Smith Centre on Sunday, Sept. 20 at 8p.m.

A bi-weekly guide on how to manage debt

At Doyle Salewski, we help people just like you every day.

Q: Collection agencies: What are my rights? What should I do when they call?

Got Events?

D A E R P S THE

D R WO NEW

!

A: Steve doesn’t answer the phone any more. He just knows someone is calling again about the overdue payment on one of his credit cards. “We need a payment by tomorrow, or else…” says the voice on the end of the line. He just doesn’t want to deal with the calls and has given up hope.

you protect yourself as well:

Steve is not alone in trying to deal with overdue bills while he tries to manage work, family and staying healthy. Collection agencies add another burden and often break the rules under the Collection Agencies Act. A good place to start is to know your rights.

2. If there’s a mistake (the amount is wrong or you’ve caught up on your payments or paid the debt in full already), tell the collection agency and then contact your creditor directly to work it out.

Bill collectors often call when they shouldn’t and can be very aggressive and downright rude. You shouldn’t ignore or avoid them if you owe the debt they are collecting but you don’t have to put up with harassment either. Here are the basic rules for collection agencies in Ontario: • • • • • • •

must be registered with the government must notify you in writing at least 6 days before trying to collect on a debt must call between 7am and 9pm Monday to Saturday and 1-5pm on Sundays cannot call on statutory holidays cannot contact you more than 3 times in a 7-day period cannot use threatening, profane, intimidating or coercive language cannot call your friends, family, employers, or anyone else for any information about you other than your address and phone number • cannot continue to call you for payment on a debt that you say you don’t owe.

If you are contacted by a collection agency, handle the situation calmly. Remember that your creditors have the right to try to collect any money that you owe them, but be sure that

1. Write down the details—who the agency is, who the creditor is, and the amount they say you owe. If you have any doubts about the accuracy, tell the agency you need to confirm the details first and call them back.

3. If you owe the money but cannot afford to pay it in full at the moment, be honest.

Try to work out a payment plan with the collector, and then stick to it. Confirm your arrangement in writing with the agency before you begin making payments to them.

A Licensed Trustee in Insolvency and Restructuring will assess your situation and can stop collection of accounts if you are being contacted by collection agents. Greasing the squeaky wheel isn’t a good idea before you look at the big picture. Few individuals realize that there are a number of options available to them even if their debts are in collection. The correct tool such as a consolidation loan, a proposal or a bankruptcy can help you better manage and eventually eliminate your debts at a discount if the burden is overwhelming.

Doyle Salewski has launched a series of short but very informative videos. The most recent release is entitled: “Collection Agencies – Know your options”. Please visit our web site to view them and let us know what you think.

If you are burdened with debt stress, asking for sound advice is a sign of strength and the smart thing to do. Asking sooner rather than later is always better. Call Doyle Salewski today for your free, no obligation consultation. You’ll be glad you did.

Arnprior firefighter invents automatic fire suppression system tgesner@perfprint.ca

Enjoy the peace of mind that comes with the Haven, an automatic fire extinguisher that is the brainchild of Arnprior volunteer firefighter Matthew Perry.

The Haven, made by Mehoe Enterprise of Carleton Place, discharges a heat-activated MSDS-safe super-fine mix of ABC dry chemical (finer than baby powder) at operating temperatures of 57 C (135 F).

“At this temperature there is a fire in your house,” Perry said.

Perry put the Haven concept to pen and paper three years ago, and after reaching out to someone he trusted – longtime friend Michael McManus – Mehoe Enterprise Inc. was formed.

Their dream was straightforward: provide an affordable automatic fire suppression system for homes. Automatic fire suppression systems control or extinguish fires without human intervention.

Perry noted smoke detectors alert residents; however, “they do nothing to protect you.”

“Detection often isn’t enough, and new homes burn 800 per cent faster – and hotter,” he said. “The Haven, when it goes off, can provide a safe haven, a protection zone, giving people more time to evacuate.”

The Haven, which is 12 inches tall and about six inches wide, is installed into the ceiling, sliding into a hole and locked in place.

Perry noted, owing to testing (at UL Laboratories in Chicago), each unit has proven to suppress or extinguish fire in a room measuring 16 feet by 16 feet.

“In addition to residences, the Haven is ideal for restaurants and small mercantile,” he said.

Each unit costs $200 and last for 10 years. It contains one lithium-ion battery, which runs the lifespan of the unit.

Perry said the number of units required depends on the layout of a house and the amount of protection the homeowner wantd.

“We automatically suggest your first one should go in your kitchen, which is an area of higher fire risk,” he advised, “and our next recom-

mendation would be your path out of the house – hallways (every eight feet).”

However, if people have a higher fear of fire, they can always install units in their bedrooms and other others.

Perry said the Haven is more cost effective than water sprinklers, “something the average homeowner can afford.”

Safety wise, the ABC dry chemical used inside the Haven is the best agent possible (similar to a fire extinguisher) and comes from Toronto.

Perry is the chief executive officer of Mehoe Enterprise and McManus is the chief operating officer.

Rounding out the team is chief financial officer Volundur ‘Wally’ Thorbjornsson and marketing director Shawn Pringle.

“It’s the best business idea I’ve seen since I started in business,” Thorbjornsson said.

“When I saw the prototype, I understood right away what it would mean.

“I knew it would change the fire prevention market,” he added, “and I knew it would save many lives.”

Insurance companies are already onboard, Perry noted.

Mehoe Enterprise offers an affordable automatic fire suppression system for homes – the Haven. The team behind the operation, from left, are chief financial officer Volundur ‘Wally’ Thorbjornsson, chief operating officer Michael McManus, founder and chief executive officer Matthew Perry of Arnprior and marketing director Shawn Pringle.

Thorbjornsson said they will be offering discounts to their customers if they buy the system.

“In 95 per cent of fire-related incidences, the water damage outweighs the fire damage,” Perry said.

Reaction to the Haven from other firefighters has been positive.

“Negotiable rates, the level of service to match your budget”

“They love it,” Thorbjornsson said. “A group of Ottawa firefighters has already started an installation company for this product.”

Perry noted a one-day tour of area fire stations took place, which included showing a video and the Haven prototype.

“I went to Kemptville, Brockville, Renfrew, Arnprior

and McNab-Braeside,” he said.

Thorbjornsson showed it to fire prevention officer Richard Jackson of the Ocean Wave Fire Company in Carleton Place. “They all understand the need for it in the market,” Perry said.

With the producers of CBC’s Dragons’ Den visiting more than 30 communities in early 2015 to discover the brightest business ideas in the country, the men of Mehoe Enterprise travelled to Ottawa on Feb. 8 to pitch the Haven.

“Personally, I didn’t want to do it,” Perry noted. “However, marketing wanted to give it a try.” After all, “it couldn’t hurt fiscally,” he added.

Shop local, outside Randy and Tami Draper’s front lawn in Braeside was something of an outdoor mini-mall on Friday, Aug. 21. Tami hosted a ‘vendor showcase’ with area home-based businesses such as Vinegar Hill Fresh Produce, Butter Me Up!, Cassanto Baked Goods, Marney Walton’s Hand-crafted Speciality Cards, South Hill Designs Jewelry, Arbonne Nutrition and more. It was also a yard sale and barbecue. Turnout was less than expected, so next year’s showcase will likely be in May or June and on a Saturday.

Who let the dogs out?

The Arnprior Villa went to the dogs for the morning of Aug. 26 It was National Dog Day and Revera Retirement communities across the country celebrated the occasion.

Research suggests that a pet can have measurable health benefits for older adults.

Karen Gilmore of Valley Animal Rescue was present for the Villa’s Pet Expo, explaining her organization serves ‘needs of unwanted and abandoned animals of Renfrew and the Ottawa Valley.’ She explained that the registered charity gives homes to cats and dogs and deals with feral cat colonies.

Most animals are given a temporary foster home before being placed in a permanent one.

In Loving Memory In loving memory of my dear husband, dad and grandpa Who passed away September 9, 2011 The moment that you died My heart was torn in two, One side filled with heartache, The other died with you.

I often lie awake at night When the world is fast asleep, and Take a walk down memory lane, With tears upon my checks.

Remembering you is easy, I do it every day, But missing you is heartache That never goes away.

I hold you tightly with in my heart And there you will remain.

Until the joyous day arrives, That we will meet again!

Loving you always Bev (wife) Kevin and family, Teresa Scott and family, Bradley

Arnprior Early Years Centre returns after summer break Back to school for the big kids means more fun for the little ones.

The Arnprior Family Preschool Resource Centre-Ontario Early Years (AFPRC/ OEY) is welcoming parents, caregivers and little ones back after a fun-filled summer.

The AFPRC/OEY is located at 16 Edward St. South Suite 130 (Kenwood Building) and offers a number of programs for children up to six years of age.

Every Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday from 9 to 11:30

a.m. is the Play and Learn Drop-in. This is an interactive playgroup for children, parents and caregivers.

There are lots of toys to play with, a chance to meet new friends and chat with old friends, followed by a craft and circle time.

On Sept.16 and 23 a nurse from the Public Health Unit will be on hand to discuss infant and toddler growth, development and other parenting issues. It’s also a chance to have your little one weighed and measured to see how big and

strong they are getting.

A special Preschool Art Class started on Sept. 8 and will run on Sept. 15, 22 and 29 from 6 to 7 p.m. at a cost of $50. The class will introduce children to the exciting world of art through a number of different mediums such as sculpture, mixed media, drawing and more. Contact the centre to see if there is still space available.

The Preschool Play and Learn Program started on Sept. 9 and continues on Sept.

16, 23 and 30 from 12:30 to

Photos By SCOTT CAMPBELL/METROLAND

The Arnprior Early Years Centre organized several special events for his young charges and their families last season. Among them was the popular Touch a Truck and Meet a Machine. Jason Chicquen and his son Titan take a peek out of Bison armoured vehicle.

2:30 p.m. and focuses on thematic units that encourage curiosity, self-direction and confidence.

Some of the daily activities include circle time, science experiments, crafts, story time and songs. The program is designed for children who are toilet trained, a snack is also provided and the program costs $30 for the four-week session.

The sale date is set for Saturday, Oct. 3 from 8 to 11 a.m. at the Christian Education Centre at 257 John St. If you are looking to get rid of gently used children’s clothing or equipment or looking for a good deal the sale is for you.

If you would like to rent a table, the cost is $20; if you have a home base business and would like a table, the cost is $25; and if you just want to come and shop, $2 gets you in the door to look for the deals and to buy some yummy baked

goods. All of the proceeds raised will go directly back into programs at the AFPRC/OEY. On May 9, the AFPRC/ OEY held its first ever Family Fun Run and Stroll raising close to $1,000 with 40 participants.

“We were very happy with the outcome and look forward to having another one next year,” said Karina Dewar who is the early learning facilitator at the AFPRC/OEY. The top fundraiser was 8-year-old Lauren Sheehan who won a FitBit. Lindsay Clement won the family pass to the O’Brien Theatre, donated by the theatre.

Sierra Gaspar won a gift certificate to Mama Rosa’s, donated by the restaurant.

For more information on the AFPRC/OEY, call 613623-8224 or email:oey. arn@hotmail.com or visit them online at http://www. earlyyearsrenfrew.ca/satellites/arnprior/index.html.

Dad Anthony Redekopp and his son Oliver of Calabogie look over the controls of the backhoe at the Early Years Centre’s Touch a Truck event. There were fire trucks, dump trucks, a school bus, backhoes and more for the kids to climb into and over. More than 150 families attended.

The Arnprior Chronicle-Guide published a series of articles on my business. Now everyone knows how great we are!

Gala to celebrate 35 years in style with corsages, feast, music, dancing Liz Wall

Seniors at Home

LIZ WALL/SUBMITTED

Volunteer directors guide Seniors at Home As members of Arnprior-Braeside-McNab Seniors at Home Agency celebrates their 35th anniversary, they also welcome a new board of directors for the 2015-2016 term as appointed at the annual general meeting June 23. Elected to serve on the new board of directors, in front from left, are transportation committee chair Donna Spencer-Bertrand, treasurer and finance committee chair Bernice Horne and outreach committee chair Linda Chandler; and in back board co-chair and development committee chair Phyllis DohertyHereford, Sharon Sewter (first term), public relations committee chair Patti Jennings (first term), and Helen Havelin. Missing from the photograph are board chair Katherine MillerGatenby and Directors and board advisors, Sylvia Patterson (past chair), David Moore and Murray Hughes.

Arnprior-Braeside-McNab Seniors At Home (ABMSH) officials are looking forward to showing appreciation to all for support given to the agency over the past 35 years.

Tickets, though limited, are waiting for you to join in the celebration Saturday, Sept. 19 at St. John Chrysostom Parish Hall, 295 Albert St. in Arnprior.

The doors will open at 4:30 p.m. at which time you will be greeted by the Smith family (of Boyce Funeral Home), who will present you with your very own corsage (just like at your prom).

“Once again we cannot thank the community enough for their support in helping to make our 35th an extra special occasion,” said Seniors at Home executive director Dennis Harrington.

The anniversary committee was approached by Lisa Smith, who offered to provide corsages for all guests.

It’s an extra special touch in memory of her mom, Cathy Smith, (who passed away Jan. 6 this year) and her brother Jimmy, who had in the past treated those attending Seniors at Home Christmas parties. It’s their way of thanking everyone while remembering Cathy’s generosity to the seniors.

Ushers will then seat you at your own reserved table featuring the various music of the ‘50s and ‘60s. Cocktails at 5 p.m. will be followed by dinner at 6 p.m. including roast beef, roast turkey and all the dressings and an assortment of homemade pies, all prepared by Ullrich on the Main.

Meet and enjoy the tales of guest speaker, Mary Cook, renowned radio host, author and columnist from the Ottawa Valley. Dance to the music of Eddy & the Stingrays (also celebrating 35 years in the entertainment world) who hit the stage at 8 p.m.

The event is open to the community. All ages are welcome to help celebrate as

long as you appreciate seniors (grandparents) good food, hospitality and good old rock and roll music.

Admission for the evening costs $30 per person, and tickets are available at the Seniors at Home office, 106 McGonigal St. West. There is limited seating, so it is recommended that you buy your ticket as early as possible.

For those needing transportation to the parish hall, ABMSH is pleased to report transportation is available to senior guests and those with special needs. Both Andre Pilon of Pilon Family Funeral Home and Eldon Smith of Boyce Funeral Home, as well as Seniors at Home’s volunteer drivers, have offered to provide transportation to and from the event.

If you plan on attending and need transportation, please confirm at time of purchase, providing name, phone number and address. Any questions? Please call 613-6237981 and ask for development co-ordinator Liz Wall.

Hankies and handkerchiefs each had their own stories

It seemed odd to me back then, that what Father stuffed in his overall pocket was called a handkerchief, but what Mother tucked in her purse, or my sister Audrey and I tied our money in its corner, was called a hanky.

Even my older and much wiser sister had no explanation for the difference.

“That’s just the way it is,” she’d say, when I asked her to explain it all to me.

Uncle Lou, when he came to visit, had spanking white handkerchiefs. Mother said they were pure linen, another sign of his wealth and importance, I thought.

He had a stack of them in his suitcase, and if he stayed a spell, Mother washed and ironed them as if they were made of gold.

He liked them folded a certain way, and Mother made sure that was the way they were given back to him after the laundry was done on the Monday.

And he used a clean one every day, which in itself set him apart from Father. Father was lucky if he got a clean handkerchief to take to church on Sunday!

And his were either red or blue patterned, made of thin cotton, and Father used them for everything from blowing his nose, to wiping off the windshield of the Model T, to cleaning his glasses when he wore them, and even giving a swipe at the cow’s udder before milking.

Yes, Father’s handkerchiefs had many uses.

Audrey and I had our own hankies, and we kept them in our drawer in the washstand in our bedroom.

We didn’t have many, perhaps three or

Mary Cook’s Memories MARY COOK

four. And one was kept especially for tying whatever few coins we had into its corner.

We laid the hanky out flat, put the coins in one corner, wrapped the corner over, and then tied it in a knot.

Audrey’s were in one side of the drawer, and mine in another.

The few others we had were taken to church, and only occasionally to school, and we carried them tucked under the wrist of the sleeve of whatever we happened to be wearing that day.

If we had short sleeves, then the hanky was tucked under the leg elastic of our underpants.

There was no shame in hauling out our hankie from the leg of our bloomers in school hours, if we needed it!

Now, Mother’s hankies were a different story altogether.

She hoarded the few she had brought from New York as if they were made of the finest linen.

Some had her initial ‘M’ embroidered in one corner, which I thought at the time was the

height of elegance, and I suspected back then, were probably the only hankies of their kind in all of Northcote!

And Mother’s hankies had a special purpose too.

Ladies carried their hankies in their purses, and every time Mother left the house, a clean hanky was doused with cologne and tucked inside, and when she opened her purse to get out her change purse (women didn’t have wallets back then), the heavenly scent of her perfume would float out, filling the air around her.

My brother Emerson hated the smell, and vowed Mother’s perfume laden hankies gave him a headache, but I often opened and closed Mother’s purse in rapid succession just to get a whiff.

so overjoyed, he went right to the phone, rang three longs and a short, and told his friend Leo Thom.

Mother wouldn’t let him take it to school. He put it in his back pocket only on Sundays for church.

I never once saw him blow his nose into it, but he would take it out in church and pat his forehead with it, and I’d watch his eyes skirt around to see if anyone had noticed his spanking white handkerchief.

If Kleenex was invented, we certainly knew nothing about it out on the farm.

Mother hemmed squares of scraps of flour or sugar bags, and these were ‘everyday’ hankies used by the women in the family.

They were taken to school by the girls, and Miss Crosby stressed time and again that it was important to bring a clean hankie to school every day.

My older and wiser sister said it was because one girl who, it was rumoured, ‘only had a bath when the dirt started to show’, used her sleeve.

Bad Marguirite, of course, had hankies with the days of the week embroidered in one corner.

What else would you expect from a girl whose golden curls came from a bottle from Ritza’s Drug Store, and wore white stockings and Mary Jane shoes to the Northcote School?

25 Cents

Hankies were bought in fancy square boxes, folded so that the corners showed tiny embroidered flowers.

These could be bought at Walker’s Store in Renfrew for 25 cents, which made them a perfect gift for the teacher at Christmas, or when school ended in June.

I was sure Miss Crosby had a stack of boxed hankies a mile high.

My brothers handkerchiefs were just like Father’s. Either dark blue or red.

Emerson longed for handkerchiefs like Uncle Lou’s, as white as the driven snow, and crisp as paper.

The year he got one for Christmas, he was

This week’s puzzle answers in next week’s issue

Here’s How It Works: Sudoku puzzles are formatted as a 9x9 grid, broken down into nine 3x3 boxes. To solve a sudoku, the numbers 1 through 9 must fill each row, column and box. Each number can appear only once in each row, column and box. You can figure out the order in which the numbers will appear by using the numeric clues already provided in the boxes. The more numbers you name, the easier it gets to solve the puzzle!
