Co-op placement lets Adam Rossanese discover teaching John Curry

john.curry@metroland.com

News - High school co-op placements provide an opportunity for students to check out a career interest and determine if it is a path that might work for them. In the case of Sacred Heart Catholic High School grade 12 student Adam Rossanese, his co-op placement exposed him to a profession that he had not previously considered but which he found that he really likes. It all came about last year when Adam took the co-op education class. He wanted to pursue a career as a firefighter and so he got a co-op placement doing administrative work at Ottawa Fire Station No. 81 on Stittsville Main Street beside the Stittsville branch of the Ottawa Public Library.

John Curry/Metroland

Adam Rossanese, a grade 12 student at Sacred Heart Catholic High School in Stittsville, has completed a first semester co-op placement at Holy Spirit Catholic School in Stittsville.

But the placement was only for three half-days a week and so to fill in the other two days, he augmented his fire hall placement with two halfdays a week helping out at Holy Spirit Catholic School on Stittsville Main Street. This year, with the option of again participating in a co-op work placement, he went back to Holy Spirit Catholic School on a five half-day a week basis because he had enjoyed his time there so much the year before. Being there throughout the first semester for half days, five days a week, meant that he had the opportunity to work a lot more with the students and got to know them better than in the year before when he was there only two halfdays a week. Adam says that he really came to feel to be part of the teaching team at Holy Spirit and

that the teachers there treated him great. It was an “awesome experience,” he says. He himself is quite knowledgeable about technology and so he found he was able to help out the students and even the teachers at times with their use of technology in the classroom which includes ipads and smart boards. This experience at Holy Spirit Catholic School has now gotten Adam thinking that teaching may be a career possibility, although he still will be pursuing a firefighting career. He plans to take some time

off after graduation this June before taking an accounting course next winter. He wants to use his time off to get the various first aid, cardio pulmonary resuscitation and other certifications and requirements needed to become a firefighter. His father is a volunteer firefighter at Station 81 and Adam helps out there as much as he can, assisting with any firefighter fundraising car washes, lending a hand at breakfasts hosted by the firefighters and helping out with the Christmas Parade of Lights in Stittsville in which the firefighters par-

ticipate and which they help organize. So, becoming a firefighter remains high on his list of future careers but now, thanks to his co-op placement at Holy Spirit Catholic School, Adam also has teaching as a possible career choice consideration. While he is not taking co-op this semester, he plans to stop by Holy Spirit Catholic School at times to see the students and talk with the teachers. Adam attended Guardian Angels Catholic School in Stittsville before attending Sacred Heart Catholic High School.

Stittsville nominated Continued from page 1

What is the focus at present is mobilizing the community in showing support for the nomination, so that when the top ten finalists in the competition are announced on Saturday, March 14, Stittsville will be one of the select ten. After that, it will be an online voting situation from March 21 to March 23 leading to selection of this year’s two finalists. This will mean more online voting for the two selected communities, with the overall Kraft Hockeyville 2015 winner announced on Hockey Night in Canada on Saturday, April 4. So, there’s a long way to go but the first step is to make the top ten finalists, five of which are to be in Eastern Canada.

And how can this be done? Well, visit the webpage http://www.khv2015. ca/en/nominations/profile/stittsville-districtcommunity-centre-1/. And then, from there, post your support to Facebook, Twitter or Instagram. Use the custom hashtag #khv_stittsvilleramshockey when posting on Twister or Instagram. You can upload photos or leave comments on the nomination page. Every posting helps a community get to the top ten stage. The idea is to provide postings that demonstrate Stittsville’s hockey spirit and pride and the community’s dedication and passion for hockey. See TEN FINALISTS, page 7

In giant slalom race Devon Kedrosky of Sacred Heart Catholic High School races down the giant slalom course at the city-wide high school alpine ski championships at Camp Fortune on Wednesday, Feb. 11, the second day of the two-day event.

Ten finalists for Kraft Hockeyville to be announced on March 14 That’s because the ten finalists that are to be announced on Saturday, March 14 are going to be judged on the following four criteria: Depiction of the nominated community’s passion for hockey and dedication to supporting the sport (30 percent); Examples of actions/events that demonstrate the nominated community’s spirit and pride (30 percent); Description of how prize money would impact the nominated community and the proposed project (30 percent); and Creativity and overall effort pertaining to the nominated entry (10 percent). In his nomination of Stittsville and the Stittsville District Community Centre for this Kraft Hockeyville 2015 honour, Domenic Fiorenza wrote the following: “Our passion and spirit for hockey – We are the Stittsville Rams. We are more than hockey, we are a community that meets almost daily at the rink, at the grocery store, at church, etc. We are Stittsville proud. Want proof? In Feb. 2015 our major atom team won the North York Knights challenge tournament, the Minor Peewee Rams won that tourney and the Major Bantams won as well. In Jan. 2015 our B2 team won the NMHA tournament, the Stittsville Thunder won the Nepean tourney. The Major Atom Rams won the 2015 Bell Capital Cup, Stittsville Swarm won the 2015 Bell Capital Cup, Stittsville Swarm won the Jacob Dievendorf Memorial Tournament, Swarm won the 39th Orleans Atom House League Championship, Major Pee Wee Rams won the Boston Tournament, Major Pee Wee Rams are Renfrew champions. My son Anthony’s team, the Major Novice Rams, won the Peterborough Thanksgiving Tourney, the Cobourg International Silver Stick Qualifying Tournament and almost won the Silver Stick Tournament in Detroit and we have won more this season: How winning would impact us – We would be able to bring the Stittsville Arena (Johnny Leroux Arena – JLA) up to today’s standards (upgrade change rooms, washrooms, common areas, ice area, etc., etc.) and make one of the hearts of Stittsville beat stronger. The money would not help the arena, it would help Stittsville. I know every resident of Stittsville, whether they have lived here for 2 years or 25 years, know that this is the best city to live in, work in and raise a family and play hockey in: Why our community should be the next Kraft Hockeyville –Why not? We are hockey. We have won many championships this season but more importantly, it is the effect that hockey has on this community. If you choose Stittsville as the next Hockeyville, your choice will be cemented by realizing what this community has to offer, on and off the ice. See our kids that have gone through the divisions, see the parents who have spent small fortunes on winter coats and coffees going to, at and from the rink. Our house is like many, many other houses in Stittsville. Once the hockey schedule is released, then everything else is scheduled around it. From grocery shopping to birthday parties, they are all done after the game.� David Joseph is one who has posted a comment online supporting the Stittsville nomination. He has written as follows: “Stittsville, Ontario is such a deserving community. I have lived here since 2006 and been involved with Stittsville Minor Hockey Association (SMHA) since 2010. What I have learned during this time is

that it is a very tight knit community and the relationships that have been developed run very deep. People know each other through their kids going to the same school, shopping at the same stores, having their kids participate in the same evening activities, and, of course, playing in the SMHA. We have developed many friendships through hockey and always look forward to going to the local rink because we know we will inevitably see someone we know ‌ it’s always great to catch up with people at the rink. In Canada, many people are into hockey, but in Stittsville, we live and breathe the sport ‌ it is a fabric of our community‌ it is who we are! The community would benefit greatly by being named Hockeyville! The Johnny Leroux Arena on Stittsville Main Street has been around for many, many years, so it could definitely use a facelift. The dressing rooms are small, the canteen is small and could use an upgrade, a girls only dressing room would be great to use as needed, the referees room is rather small, and a revamped lobby would allow us to showcase all the legendary people who gave so much to the Stittsville sports community ‌ it is a long list of dedicated and outstanding people. If Stittsville were named Kraft Hockeyville, it would be such a great boost to the arena and community, and would be a great choice in representing the city and country and would let the country know that Stittsville really is Kraft Hockeyville.â€? And just what is Stittsville in store for if it becomes Kraft Hockeyville 2015? The grand prize winning community will received a trophy and the title of “Kraft Hockeyville 2015â€?; the winning community will have the opportunity to host a National Hockey League (NHL) pre-season game; the winning community will receive $100,000 to upgrade its arena; and the winning community will be featured on a television broadcast related to the NHL pre-season game in the fall of 2015. Making it to the top ten finalists in the competition, to be announced on Saturday, March 14, assures the community of receiving at least $25,000 in arena upgrades. The two communities which top the online voting involving these top ten finalists will then go head-to-head in more online voting from March 28-March 30. The winning community will host the NHL pre-season game and receive $100,000 in arena upgrades. The losing or second place community in this final online voting will receive $100,000 in arena upgrades. Numerous communities in Ontario and across Canada have been nominated in this year’s Kraft Hockeyville 2015 competition. Local nominated communities include Arnprior, Smiths Falls and Pembroke. Kraft Hockeyville 2015 is presented by Kraft Canada Inc., NHL Enterprises Canada L.P. and the National Hockey League Players Association, with the goal of identifying the Canadian community which stands above all others in exemplifying Canada’s passion for hockey. Here are the words that are found at the beginning of the Kraft Hockeyville 2015 Official Canadian Competition Rules: “We are a country passionate about hockey. It brings us together as fans, friends, family and ultimately, as a community. Hockey has built so many of our communities. And those communities, in return, have helped to define

hockey in Canada. The place where this all comes together is the local arena. And without repairs and upgrades, we risk losing not just a piece of our cultural identity but our community spirit too. Kraft Hockeyville is helping to protect the future of hockey in Canada by encouraging people to come together: because communities build hockey and hockey builds communities.� The Stittsville Minor Hockey Association currently has about 1,100 youth playing in its ranks, icing about 70 teams this season including about 50 house league teams.

Kraft Hockeyville is an annual competition that was first held across Canada in 2006. The winning communities over the years have been Salmon River, N.S. in 2006, North Bay, ON in 2007; Village sur Glace de Roberval, Quebec in 2008; Terrace, B.C. in 2009; Dundas, ON in 2010; Conception Bay, NL in 2011; Stirling-Rawdon, ON in 2012; No winner in 2013 due to NHL lockout; and Sylvan Lake, AB in 2014. In 2014, Richmond was one of the top 16 finalists and received $25,000 for upgrades to the Richmond Memorial Community Centre.

Bus riders bear unfair burden

M

ayor Jim Watson has earned a lot of political mileage thanks to his promise to keep tax hikes pegged at a reasonable rate while maintaining essential city

services. The city’s most recent budget came in with a suggested 1.75 per cent hike to property taxes, translating to an additional $67 on the average home owner’s annual property tax bill. This year, the mayor is once again on the record as saying the budget won’t force the city to make service cuts. This argument falls flat on its face considering the proposed 2.5 per cent increase on average to transit fares in 2015. The fare hike will result in bus and train riders paying 53 per cent of the $478-million annual cost of running OC Transpo, moving the city further away from its long-standing policy of maintaining a 50-50 split between taxes and fares to fund public transit. Since 2010, the cost of a single adult cash fare has increased from $3 to $3.55, roughly an 18 per cent increase, higher than Ottawa’s most recent property tax hikes, which Watson has promised

to cap at two per cent a year. The proposed fare hike comes after a dip in ridership over the past three years, with the number of customer trips taken every year dropping from 103.5 million in 2011 to 96.8 million in 2014. At the same time it is proposing to once again hike fares, OC Transpo is predicting a slight rise in ridership to 97.3 million customer trips in 2015. This seems to defy the logic of economic thinking, unless the bus company is banking on taking on an additional 100,000 person trips every year powered strictly by the city’s population growth. Eventually, council will face a bitter choice between holding the line at the arbitrary two per cent level in property tax increases set by Watson and preserving public transit ridership. The alternative is cutting “nice to have� items in the budget, or searching for any fat on “essential city services� to maintain a 50-50 split. Council should be commended for keeping property taxes low, but the cost shouldn’t be borne on the backs of transit users.

The invasion of the small oďŹƒce buildings

C

an you pinpoint the exact year that houses began to look like little office buildings? It just sort of happened without any warning. It’s not as if all the architects and builders got together and made a formal announcement: “From this day hence, all houses will look like little office buildings. God save the Queen.� But, all of a sudden, there they were. Right where you expected to see that cute little bungalow that had been around since the Second World War, there was a hole in ground, a dumpster, a portable toilet, a lot of mud and, shortly thereafter, a little office building. “Whose office is that?� you might have asked one of the guys loading the portable toilet onto the truck.

CHARLES GORDON Funny Town “That’s not an office; that’s a house,� would be the reply. How could it be a house? There was no wood, no brick, no eaves – just a boxy thing that couldn’t be anything but a small office building. You had questions, but no one was around to answer. Where was the slope in the roof? Weren’t flat roofs supposed to be a no-no in a place that gets a lot of snow? Could we have the bungalow back? But there was no stopping it.

People eventually caught on that distinctive older homes were being knocked down so that more small office buildings could be put up, but that didn’t stop them. Which brings us to where we are now: more of these small office buildings are going up with no offices in them. It would have been some consolation if actual office buildings had begun to take on the characteristics of houses, but that hasn’t happened. They just look like small office buildings, only big. There’s probably not much that can be done to undo this. The only way to prevent the complete takeover of Ottawa’s neighbourhoods by small office buildings is to attack the root causes.

be? Well, you know how people are obsessed with work these days? They can’t be out of touch for even a second, so their smartphones are constantly on and their owners are constantly checking them. Surely it’s only logical that the natural extension of refusing to let go of the workplace is to having a home that looks just like one. Further, should you choose to work from home, as more and more people are doing and more and more people will do in the near future as downtown becomes completely inaccessible – should you choose to work from home, it may be comforting to do your work in a building that resembles a workplace. You’ll feel right at home – or right at work. If this logic is correct, then as long as our society continues its obsession with work, we will have houses that resemble office buildings.

Citizen Advocacy of Ottawa explains its programs to SVA John Curry john.curry@metroland.com

News - Citizen Advocacy of Ottawa did a little advocacy for itself at the Stittsville Village Association (SVA) meeting on Thursday evening, Feb. 12. Maria Redpath, community engagement coordinator for Citizen Advocacy of Ottawa, made a presentation to the SVA to explain what Citizen Advocacy does and to get the word out about the organization which is always looking for more volunteers to help with its work with people with disabilities. Citizen Advocacy supports people of all ages and with all types of disabilities including physical, developmental, psychological, intellectual and age-related. One of its core programs is matching a volunteer one-on-one with a person with a disability with the goal of getting the person with a disability out in the community, as people with disabilities tend to be isolated in society. This might consist of simply going out together and having a coffee. Ms. Redpath gave the example of one of the matches which has been life changing for the person with a disability, opening up a whole new world for him. This match involves Peter, the Citizen Advocacy volunteer, and John, the person with a disability who was on the Citizen Advocacy waiting list for over ten years before the match was done. The match has now been ongoing for six years. John’s request for the match was based on one thing: to learn how to take a bus. He needed someone to spend time with him so that he could learn how to take the bus. This has happened thanks to the match and has opened up a whole new world for John. He has more confidence now and now has a parttime job that he travels to on the bus. He also is involved in advocacy committees. This Peter/John match shows that these matches facilitated by Citizen Advocacy can involve simple things that can make a big dif-

ference in the life of a person living with a disability. Ms. Redpath noted that there are three people with disabilities in Stittsville who are receiving support from Citizen Advocacy. However, there is just one Citizen Advocacy volunteer from the Stittsville area. She said that there are two people in Stittsville who currently are waiting for a match. One is a 34 year old man with epilepsy and a brain injury who has been waiting for over a year for a match. He lives in a retirement residence in the community. The other is a 30 year old with a brain injury who lives at home with his mother. Having a match would allow him to get out and about a little. At present his life revolves around his mother. Another program run by Citizen Advocacy is a Lifetime Networks program which works with families of people with disabilities to create a person support circle. This is done so that when the aging parents are no longer able to support the person with disabilities, there will be a network of people there to lend a hand such as going shopping with the person, helping to maintain a house or facilitating going to church. Up to 20 people or more can be involved in one of these Lifetime Networks. Currently there are three people with disabilities in Stittsville who are involved with this Lifetime Networks program. Citizen Advocacy is currently looking not only for people with disabilities that the organization can help but is also looking for volunteers to take part in the organization’s program matching volunteers with people with disabilities in the community. At present, there is a waiting list of about 300 people with disabilities across the city of Ottawa who are waiting for a matching volunteer. Ms. Redpath said that the expectation in the matching program is that the volunteer gets together with the person with a disability once a week, going out for a cup of coffee or doing

some other activity together. There is a minimum 12 month commitment required by the volunteer and a vulnerable sector police check is required which can be done for free. She said that the goal of the matching program is to get the person with a disability out in the community. She said that the matches have profound benefits for the person with a disability including improved self-esteem and better health. Citizen Advocacy also offers a number of support groups such as a parent support group, a sibling support group and an adult support group, all related to people with disabilities. Citizen Advocacy raises about half of its funding. Other funding comes from the Ontario Ministry of Community and Social Services, from the Ontario Ministry of Health and from United Way. The organization also gets grants at times from the Community Foundation of Ottawa and the Trillium Foundation. It was suggested that the SVA may be able to include Citizen Advocacy on its website for more visibility. In addition, Citizen Advocacy might be able to have a display about its services at the SVA’s Canada Day activities. Citizen Advocacy of Ottawa can be contacted at 613-761-9522 or by email at info@citizenadvocacy.org.

Richmond Forcemain Repair Last week, residents in the immediate surrounding area of the pumping station on Royal York Street were notified of field investigation works as part of a design phase of a repair to the forcemain in Richmond, between the pumping station and Eagleson Road. As indicated in a previous letter in August 2014, the City of Ottawa will be making repairs and modifications to the Richmond Forcemain. The work involves repairing the existing 500mm forcemain, the installation of a new 300mm forcemain to facilitate the repairs, and the installation of a new section of 600mm forcemain for the proposed future development within the Village of Richmond. The original forcemain was built in the early 1980’s and is in need of repair. As part of the repair process, these preliminary investigations are necessary to complete the detailed design for the future construction activity. The investigation work will include geotechnical, environmental, and archeological investigations. It will also include the inspection of existing maintenance hole structures, topographical surveying, and locates for underground utilities in the vicinity of the existing forcemain. The use of both staff and equipment will be required to conduct this work. The field investigation work will take place from mid February to early April 2015. Gerry Lines Bowling Alley On February 11th, Council unanimously approved of a proposal to rename the North Gower Bowling Alley to the Gerry Lines Bowling Alley. Gerry Lines served as President of the North Gower Community Centre Board for 11 years. During that time, the Board managed the community centre, the ball diamond, boys’ and girls’ ball teams as well as the outdoor arena and hockey. Gerry Lines was also a member of the building committee for the new community centre complex in North Gower. In this capacity, he was instrumental in the fundraising for, as well as the design and construction of the North Gower Recreation Association Centre, now known as the Alfred Taylor Recreation Centre.

provide data about the hydrology of the site. This information is needed as the city has opposed the proposed development on the basis of insufďŹ cient data being provided with the subdivision application. But the preparations to do this drilling has included building gravel roads through the site, cutting trees and installing concrete bases on which the drilling equipment will sit. Glen McDonald, one of the adjacent residents, told those at a Stittsville Village Association (SVA) meeting on Thursday, Feb. 12 that the tree cutting, road building and massive

concrete pads seems excessive work for what is needed to be done to provide information to the city. He said that the residents had asked that a ten metre buffer of trees adjacent to existing residences be left in place at this time, that any concrete pads not be installed adjacent to existing residences and that any work undertaken did not impede areas of owing water. The residents received no assurances of this from the developer. Mr. McDonald suggested that if the city is satisďŹ ed with the new information that the developer provides about the site, it may move to provide draft conditions of subdivision for the developer and will abandon its efforts in front of the OMB. This would leave the residents’ group which is involved in the OMB process as well all on its own in opposing the development. Keldine FitzGerald, one of the adjacent residents, said that the group is now “madly preparing for the OMB hearingâ€? as it has to line up experts in hydrology, town planning and other matters to testify on the group’s behalf at the upcoming hearing. She lamented the lack of funding available for community groups to battle developers at the OMB, saying that the group cannot afford to pay $50,000, for instance, for a lawyer. She is hoping that experts in various matters will be available for much less. Developers always seem to win but we are trying our best to prevent it in this case, Ms. FitzGerald said. Area residents are holding a community meeting this coming Monday, Feb. 23 at 7 p.m. at the Stittsville United Church on Fernbank Road where an update on the status of the proposed subdivision will be given and where initial steps will be taken to form a community association in the area.

Feb. 23 meeting to form community association Special to the News

News - Efforts are being made to form a community association for residents of Stittsville west of Stittsville Main Street and south of Abbott Street. This includes the neighbourhoods of Cypress Gardens, West Ridge Drive, Fernbank Road and Etta Street as well as other areas. Catalyst for this effort is the proposed development involving a wetland area called Cypress Gardens 3, ofďŹ cially listed as 6279 Fernbank Road, which calls for the construction of about 150 housing units. It is expected that this new community association will become in the future a cohesive agent for residents of the area, providing a voice in dealings with the city of Ottawa. A community group meeting to initiate the formation of this new community association will take place this Monday, Feb. 23 at 7 p.m. at the Stittsville United Church on Fernbank Road in Stittsville. This meeting will also be used as an opportunity to provide an update on the status of the development application and on the OMB hearing scheduled to take place from Monday, April 20 to Friday, May 1, 2015 at Ottawa city hall. To get in touch with the committee of immediate neighbours of the site which is concerned about the proposal and which is leading the effort to form a community association, please email Keldine FitzGerald at keldine@ keldine.ca.

Silver for Hornets Special to the News

Sports - It was the first out-of-town tournament trip for the Goulbourn Hornets Novice Girls competitive basketball team and what a result – silver medals! The Hornets travelled to the DC Slam Durham Classic Tournament in Toronto on the weekend of Feb. 7/8 where they faced competition like the North Toronto Huskies, Peterborough Power and DC Chameleons. But the Hornets came up big, playing extremely well in the tournament. It all began with a 29-14 win over the North Toronto Huskies, with the Hornets playing well on offense and tough on defense – a winning formula, for sure. In their second game of the round robin portion of the tournament, the Hornets went up against the Peterborough Power. Using their speed and team work, the Hornets buzzed to a 21-14 victory. These first two victories meant that the Hornets earned an automatic bye to the championship gold medal game to face the host DC Chameleons. These two teams were initially scheduled to play one another in a round robin game but due to inclement weather, the teams decided that it was in everyone’s best interest to just play the championship final game rather than play one another twice in a matter of hours. In this championship final, the Hornets were up against stiff competition and were down by an 11-2 score at half time. The Hornets came on in the second half but were unSubmitted able to close the gap, losing by a 20-10 final score. But the Members of the Goulbourn Hornets Novice Girls basketball team, silver medal winners in the recent DC Slam Durham Classic Hornets, in collecting the silver medals in this first-ever outTournament in Toronto, are, front row, from left, Brooke Wallace, Kylee Enticknap, Jane Case, Samantha Hemeon, Maya of-town tournament, took pride in the fact that they held the Hamad and Hillary Case; second row, from left, Katie Leboutillier, Zoey Anna Hemeon, Eden Tourigny and Casey Toivonen; powerful DE Chameleons team to a season low of 20 points in the championship game. and, back row, from left, assistant coach Kevin Hemeon and head coach Dan Case.

Stittsville Peewee C3 Thunder ‘win for Brayden’ Special to the News

Sports - “Win just one for the Gipper” is a famous phrase associated with Notre Dame football coach Knute Rockne and 1920’s Notre Dame All-American football player George “The Gipper” Gipp. Rockne apparently used the phrase to rally his team to an underdog victory over an undefeated opponent in 1928. It inspired the team in the game. The Stittsville Peewee C3 Thunder team also has now learned how something can inspire a team to greater heights as was the case when the Thunder played in the recent Cougar Cup Tournament at the new Richcraft Sensplex in Gloucester. The team’s inspiration came from an injury suffered by defenceman Brayden Read in the team’s final round robin game of the tournament. The injury meant that Brayden would miss the rest of the tournament but Brayden’s absence provided the inspiration and motivation to the team which wanted to “Win one for Brayden,” to paraphrase the famous Knute Rockne phrase. And this is just what the Stittsville Thunder did, winning a semi-final

game in overtime and then doubling the score on the previously unbeaten Nepean Frostbite team to become Cougar Cup Tournament champions for 2015. It had been a routine play in a hard fought round robin game that had left Stittsville Thunder defenceman Brayden Read lying on the ice. The Thunder were leading by a 6-1 score and about to post their third straight round robin victory and advance to the tournament’s semi-final action when defenceman Brayden Read hit the boards hard as he raced to clear the puck from behind the net. The injured player lay motionless on the ice as he was attended to by the team’s trainer and a medical physician who was at the game. Concerned and ner-

vous players, coaches and parents looked on as paramedics carried Brayden off the ice and into a waiting ambulance. Brayden was eventually discharged from the hospital early in the morning diagnosed with concussionlike symptoms that meant he had to keep off the ice for at least a week. It was the news that Brayden would miss the remainder of the tournament that gave the Stittsville Thunder increased motivation to go out and be victorious in the Cougar Cup Tournament playoffs. The players wanted to win the tournament for Brayden. In the ensuing semi-final game, Andrew Fitzel of the Thunder opened the scoring midway through the sec-

ond period, scoring on a breakaway thanks to a pass from William MacNeil. The score remained 1-0 until there was 43 seconds left in the third period when the opposition scored to tie up the game. So, it was off to fouron-four sudden death overtime but not before a loud “Win for Brayden” team cheer by the Thunder. This became reality at the 1:40 mark of overtime when Andrew Fitzel scored again, giving the Stittsville Thunder the sudden-death overtime victory and a spot in the tournament final. The team’s momentum carried through to this championship final game against the Nepean Frostbite team. Thanks to outstanding goaltending by Patrick Inglis and goals by Andrew Fitzel, Luke Yelle and Eric

FitzGibbon, the Stittsville Thunder pulled out to a 3-1 lead by the end of the first period. The game ended up being a real team effort as all of the Thunder players except the goalie made it to the score sheet, either with goals or assists. The Stittsville Thunder ended up winning this championship final game by a 6-3 score, becoming Cougar Cup Tournament champions for 2015. And their injured teammate Brayden was not forgotten as that evening, the team’s championship trophy and a winner’s medal were delivered by the players to the injured player. Yes, the Stittsville Peewee C3 Thunder had indeed “Won for Brayden.”

Orange wins Continued from page 14

It was all tied up 1-1 after the first period with Cabling Ottawa ahead by a 4-2 score after two periods of play in the game. Scott Sherman scored two goals for Cabling Ottawa with single goals going to Trevor Graham, Jessie Gimbner and Jay Gallinger. Shane Byrne had two assists in the game. Single assists were earned by Matt Hand, Jay Gallinger, Scott Sherman, Jessie Gimbner and Matt Yakabuski. Nathan Blenkarn scored two goals for Cavanagh Construction in this game, with single markers being added by Joey House and Steve Derouin.

Trevor Harding finished the game with three assists while Jason Foran had a pair of assists. Also earning assists in this game for the Cavanagh Construction Grey team were Mike Scherbo, Greg Harding and Steve Derouin.

Rams take early lead in series Special to the News

Sports - It’s been two close games but the Stittsville Rams took a two game lead in their Eastern Ontario Junior Hockey League Valley Division playoff series against the Arnprior Packers. The Rams followed up a 3-2 overtime victory in Arnprior last Friday with a 3-1 victory back home in Stittsville last Sunday afternoon. Last Friday in Arnprior, the game was scoreless through the first period and was tied 1-1 after the second period. Shane Hiley scored the Rams goal with Cole Carter picking up an assist on the play. In the third period, Connor Cobbold of the Rams scored a power play goal after just 43 seconds to give his team a 2-1 lead. Neil Penner and Cole Carter picked up assists on the goal. But Arnprior came back just one minute and 17 seconds later to tie up the game 2-2. This is how it remained throughout the third period, forcing an overtime period. At the 14:51 mark of this overtime period, Jordan Boutillier scored for the Rams, with Riley McGuire picking up an assist on this game winning marker. The Rams had 35 shots on the Arnprior net in this game, including 13 shots in the overtime period. The Arnprior Packers had 28 shots at Stittsville goalie Connor Ellis including 12 shots in the overtime period. Last Sunday afternoon at the Goulbourn Recreation Complex in Stittsville, it was another close game, an edge-of-your-seat hockey

game for the fans. The Stittsville Rams took a 1-0 lead in the first period when Cole Carter scored on a power play, assisted by Talmadge Farnes and Matt Allan.. It remained 1-0 for the Rams until the 15:09 mark of the second period when Arnprior scored, tying up the game. This is how the second period ended, 1-1 on the score board. The third period was scoreless until Connor Cobbold of the Rams scored with only 2:36 left in the period. Mitch Kerwin and Matt Allan earned assists on this go-ahead goal. Arnprior pulled its goalie to try to get back on even terms with the Rams but the move backfired as Riley McGuire of the Rams scored into an empty Arnprior net at the 18:15 mark, sealing the Rams’ 3-1 victory. Rams goalie Matt Couvrette and Mitch Kerwin earned assists on this empty net goal. The Rams directed 41 shots at the Arnprior net in this game while the visiting Packers had 38 shots on Rams’ goalie Matt Couvrette. Both teams picked up eight penalties in the game. After the third game of the series last Monday in Stittsville, the teams will play the fourth game of the series this coming Friday, Feb. 20 at 8 p.m. in Arnprior. If a fifth game is needed, it will be played this coming Sunday, Feb. 22 at 2:30 p.m. at the Goulbourn Recreation Complex on Shea Road in Stittsville.

26 Stittsville News - Thursday, February 19, 2015

News - It’s a mailbox that has no sidewalk leading to it. Located on the west side of West Ridge Drive near Sable Run Drive, the community mailbox serving the adjacent area sits there all by itself. In the summer, people can walk over the roadside grass to get to it but in the winter, these access routes are blocked with snow. Now, the mailbox location does have a vehicle layby so a person can drive to it, pull into the layby and then access the mailbox. But the only way to reach the mailbox by walking in the winter is to walk along the busy north/ south street or to cross the street, go along the sidewalk on the east side of the street and then cross over the street again to reach the mailbox location.

The Stittsville Village Association (SVA) is going to write the city of Ottawa asking that the city plow the grass median on the west side of the street so that people can reach the community mailbox without crossing the street or walking along the street. The SVA took this action after the matter was brought to its attention by Stittsville resident Roger Chagnon who lives in the area. Mr. Chagnon suggested that if the city were to plow the grass median in the winter and perhaps put down a stonedust pathway there for the summer, the situation could be improved, with perhaps a sidewalk being installed there in the future. There are sidewalks along both sides of some parts of West Ridge Drive. One exception is this small portion where there is a sidewalk on the east side of the street but not on the west side where this community mailbox is located.

Strings, keys produce beautiful music at Gaia Java John Curry

john.curry@metroland.com

Bach, but after that, the quartet simply moved from one musical offering to the next, with only a shifting of the music sheets on their music stands happening between one musical offering and the next. The group presented over a dozen individual pieces, each one filling the coffee shop with the classical musical sounds that only a string quartet can produce.

And the second half of the music evening was just as musically glorious, with Khalil Stewart sitting down at the keyboard and just playing and playing and playing. It was a marathon of music, with no breaks, as Khalil presented a non-stop improvised medley of song after song, most with a jazz flavour. He was like a musical Energizer bunny at the

keyboard – he never stopped! The Lisgar Collegiate Institute String Quartet is part of a century old music tradition at the downtown Ottawa school. Indeed, among those listening to and enjoying the group’s performance last Friday at the Gaia Java shop was music evening regular John Cook who just happened to have played the cello when he

attended Lisgar Collegiate Institute back in 1974. It was almost 100 years ago during World War One that music was introduced at the Lisgar Collegiate Institute orchestra and music has been a fixture at the school in one form or another ever since.

News - What do strings and keys have in common? Well, none other than the ability to produce beautiful music when in the hands of a gifted musician. And this is what was the case at the Gaia Java Coffee Company shop See LISGAR, page 31 in Stittsville at its regular music evening last Friday when the Lisgar Collegiate Institute String Quartet and then Queens University music student Khalil Stewart showed what can be done musically with string instruments and with a keyboard respectively. There were no vocal songs at this music evening and indeed, there was very little vocal communication. Rather, the performers let their music do the talking. And the message came through loud and clear – these musicians are talented! First up at the music evening was the Lisgar Collegiate Institute String Quartet – Uyen Tran and Rhiannon Ng on violin, Kenya Moore on viola and Alexi Michael on cello. Uyen and Rhiannon are grade 12 students while Kenya and Alexi are in grade 11. Uyen announced the first piece that John Curry/Metroland the group played, one by 18th century Performing at the music evening at the Gaia Java Coffee Company shop in Stittsville last Friday are members of the Lisgar Collegiate Institute German composter Johann Sebastian String Quartet, from left, Uyen Tran on violin, Rhiannon Ng on violin, Kenya Moore on viola and Alexi Michael on cello.

Lisgar musicians playing at The Strings of St. John’s concert Continued from page 29

At the end of World War One, the initial ensemble of musicians became the school’s official orchestra which was a first for a high school in Canada. Music was added to the school curriculum and ensuing decades saw a Lisgar band, jazz bands and choirs. Today there are ten performing musical ensembles at Lisgar, involving almost 250 students in total. These Lisgar musical groups perform at community, regional and national musical events. Ensembles and quartets like this Lisgar Collegiate Institute String Quartet that played at the Gaia Java coffee shop last Friday perform locally at churches, at chamber music concerts and at various events around the city. Lisgar student musicians have gone on tours across Canada as well as in the United States, Europe, Russia and China. The current Lisgar Collegiate Institute String Ensemble will be continuing this tradition of community performances as it will be joining The Strings of St. John’s chamber orchestra at its upcoming “Solos for Strings” concerts. These concerts are being held on Sunday, March 1 at 2 p.m. at the Church of St. John the Evangelist at the corner of Elgin Street and Somerset Street in downtown Ottawa and then again on Sunday, March 8 at 2 p.m. at the First United/All Saints Church on Richmond Road in Westboro. Tickets for both of these concerts are now on sale at the Gaia Java Coffee Company shop in Stittsville, with tickets selling for $20 each. Tickets are also available online at www.stringsofstjohns.ca as well as at The Leading Note classical music store on Elgin Street in down-

town Ottawa. The Strings of St. John’s is a chamber orchestra based at the Church of St. John the Evangelist which is conducted by Gordon Johnston. The Crumble Quartet, one of the groups associated with The Strings of St. John’s, has performed in the past at Friday music evenings at the Gaia Java coffee shop in Stittsville. Khalil Stewart hails from Whitby where growing up, he sometimes played in his family’s barber shop. He has gone on to study music at Queens

University in Kingston, majoring in keyboard including both classical and jazz piano. He enjoys improvising medleys of his favourite songs as he demonstrated in his performance at the Gaia Java coffee shop last Friday. His long term goal is to gain his music and subsequent teaching degrees and eventually open a school for the arts where students engaged in the arts can feel at home and can flourish in their arts pursuits.

Courts have recognized that rehabilitation works for some disabilities and not others. For example, in the case of Kirkness Estate v. Imperial Life Assurance Co, an insurance policy required someone who was disabled due to a mental illness to be under the regular care of a psychiatrist. The insurance company denied benefits because a mentally ill claimant refused such care. However, the Ontario Court of Appeal ruled that the insurance company could not insist on regular psychiatric care as a precondition for benefits where Each long-term disability policy is different but there was no chance of it allowing the claimant to most include a clause requiring that claimants seek return to work. The individual’s illness was serious and follow the treatment of a doctor and attempt enough that they would not be able to work regardless rehabilitation.

News - This year the annual Kindness Week in Ottawa (Feb. 13-20) is focusing on recognizing kind youth in the Ottawa community. And the first official Kindness Award for Kindness Week 2015, presented at the official launch of Kindness Week last Friday, Feb. 13 at Accora Village in Ottawa, went to Stittsville youth Tysen Lefebvre. In presenting the award, Rabbi Reuven Bulka, founder of Kindness Week and chair of Kind Ottawa, praised Tysen as a special person. He recounted how Tysen received a wish from the Make A Wish Foundation in 2012 in which he got to meet his idol, actor Adam Sandler, in Hollywood. But, as Rabbi Bulka pointed out, Tysen did not stop when his wish was fulfilled but he wanted to help others have their wishes granted as well. That’s why he launched Tysen’s Mission To A Million, hoping to raise one million dollars for Make A Wish Eastern Ontario so that other youth can have their wishes granted as well. Since his Mission To A Million campaign began in October 2013, Tysen has raised $215,000. His plan is to raise $200,000 a year for five years to reach the goal. Tysen, who is a student at Goulbourn Middle School, was born with a rare genetic disorder called Pfeiffer Syndrome and so far in his life, has had over 26 surgeries, beginning when he was only nine days old. Raising one million dollars with his Mission To A Million campaign will mean that Make A Wish Eastern Ontario could grant 100 wishes to area youth. The purpose of Kindness Week is not only to recognize those who are doing kind and wonderful things in the city of Ottawa such as Tysen Lefebvre

but also to encourage the spread of kindness throughout the city not only during Kindness Week but year round. This year’s theme is recognizing the kindness of youth in the community. Last year the focus of Kindness Week was recognizing the kindness and efforts of teachers. Through this week, Rabbi Bulka as Kind Ottawa Chair and Cindy Smith, executive director of the Caring and Sharing Exchange, the organization which facilitates Kindness Week, will be visiting youth in their schools and com-

munities to surprise them with one of the more than 50 Kindness Awards that will be presented during the week. At the official Kindness Week launch last Friday, it was announced that thanks to a partnership involving Accora Village, the SchoolBOX Program and CTV’s Amazing People Gala, ten youth from Accora Village will be travelling to Nicaragua in March 2016 to help build a school there.

Kindness Week is launched Continued from page 33

Such service trips to Nicaragua often become life changing experiences for youth, exposing them to conditions in a developing country while also giving them an opportunity to help out. The SchoolBox Program has already built four classrooms in Nicaragua thanks to the financial support provided by CTV’s Amazing People Gala. Building classrooms and a school in Nicaragua builds a sense of pride in that local community, inspires the youth there as they see that people from afar care about them and increases educational opportunities in a country where 51 percent of children do not complete grade five. This Kindness Week launch was also used as the occasion for the formal launch of the workbook “Plant A Garden of Kindness” by Alta Vista author Lindsey Barr. This is a child’s guide to filling a year with weekly acts of kindness, helping children make kindness a habit at a very early age. Ms. Barr told those at the Kindness Week launch that if youth can be taught about little acts of kindness, then when they become the decision makers in the world, they will be able to change the world.

In his remarks at the Kindness Week launch, city of Ottawa Bay ward councillor and deputy mayor Mark Taylor urged everyone to incorporate kindness into their daily routine, noting that a single act of kindness can cause a ripple effect, with others doing the same and thus spreading kindness through the community. He said that while Kindness Week places a focus on kindness, in reality kindness should be a lifelong goal for everyone. In his role as deputy mayor, substituting for the unavailable mayor Jim Watson, councillor Taylor read a city proclamation pertaining to Kindness Week. Ottawa Centre MPP Yasir Naqvi, in his remarks at the Kindness Week launch, noted that while Kindness Week highlights kindness, every single day in life should feature kindness. Ottawa West-Nepean MPP Bob Chiarelli, speaking at the Kindness Week launch, urged people to volunteer as a way of giving thanks and being kind. Dan Greenberg, president of Ferguslea Properties, the presenting sponsor of Kindness Week 2015, told those at the launch ceremony that kindness helps make the community

a better place. He called on people to help make kindness “cool,” saying that kindness seems to have stopped being cool as evidenced in the lack of kindness evidenced in today’s movies where, he said, the words “Thank You” never are heard. This is the third year that the Caring and Sharing Exchange has been involved with Kindness Week which was founded eight years ago. Besides its involvement with Kindness Week, the Caring and Sharing Exchange helps Ottawa families facing economic hardship during the Christmas and back-to-school seasons. Now in its eighth year, Kindness Week Ottawa is a city-wide initiative that encourages community members to choose to be kind and recognizes those who engage in everyday acts of kindness. Founded by Rabbi Reuven Bulka of Congregation Machzikei Hadas, Kindness Week was started to help make a difference in the community by spreading kindness. Kindness Week is organized by a committee of volunteers from government, non-profit, corporate, education and the restaurant and hospitality sectors in the city, all facilitated by the Caring and Sharing Exchange.

SVA may get $1,500 from Energy East John Curry

john.curry@metroland.com

News - The Stittsville Village Association (SVA) has agreed to apply for $1,500 in sponsorship money from Energy East to help with expenses related to the SVA’s annual “Artists in the Park” event. Energy East is the proponent for the so-called Energy East pipeline which will convert an existing natural gas pipeline to an oil pipeline. The pipeline runs just west of Stittsville. SVA first vice-president Phil Sweetnam pointed out that Energy East is not looking for any naming rights for the SVA event but just for recognition of the sponsorship help given for the event. SVA director Doug Sutherland, who looks after the “Artists in the Park” event for the SVA, said that he had no problem in accepting the donation. SVA director Glen Gower said that he had no problem with accepting the $1,500, noting that there are no strings attached with regard to the SVA’s actions regarding the proposed pipeline. He expressed concern about the community understanding the situation so that there is no perception in the community that the SVA has

been bought off on the issue with this donation. He said that the SVA accepts sponsorship money for events but that such donations are not tied to any SVA decision. Mr. Gower said that the SVA should be transparent regarding accepting sponsorship money. Mr. Sweetnam assured the SVA directors that the funding from Energy East would be coming with no strings attached. He said that the SVA has tried to have a balanced approached to the proposed Energy East pipeline proposal by having presentations made to it by both TransCanada Pipelines and Ecology Ottawa. In addition, SVA directors have attended meetings of both TransCanada Pipelines and the Ontario Energy Board with regard to the Energy East pipeline proposal. SVA president Tanya Hein pointed out that in the past Waste Management had been a sponsor of SVA events. She noted, though, that this had no impact on the SVA’s position regarding Waste Management’s proposed new landfill on Carp Road which the SVA has opposed. She said that this caused a riff between the SVA and Waste Management at the time.

Legacy Gift will generate $42.2 MILLION for CHEO over next 100 years Weldon Cochrane was an Ottawa chartered accountant and partner with the accounting firm of Coopers and Lybrand (now PriceWaterhouseCoopers) and was also the Treasurer on the CHEO Foundation Board. Mr. Cochrane had an appreciation for the importance of leaving a legacy and understood how to make an impact when he decided to made a gift in his Will to CHEO. He left the residual of his estate with instructions for it to be endowed; meaning that the capital would be preserved in perpetuity and the annual interest would be used to fund the important work at CHEO. When Mr. Cochrane died in 1985 the CHEO Foundation received $540,000

from his estate and established the Weldon Cochrane Endowment Fund as directed in his Will. Much has happened and changed at CHEO since his death and in that time his legacy gift has grown to $4.6 million.

Rural affairs committee to meet regularly at Ben Franklin Place Emma Jackson

emma.jackson@metroland.com

City council’s rural affairs committee will now meet at Ben Franklin Place in Nepean unless a major issue warrants travelling to a rural ward. The Agriculture and Rural Affairs committee voted unanimously on Feb. 5 to change its regular meeting place to the former Nepean council chambers at Woodroffe and Baseline roads, the geographic centre of Ottawa, to improve access for rural residents who want to give feedback about issues that affect them. Since amalgamation the committee has met

That led to claims that the city was purposely trying to avoid public scrutiny. To fix this problem, members of ARAC – led by chairman Scott Moffatt, councillor for Rideau-Goulbourn – will now meet at Ben Franklin Place unless it’s determined that a major issue warrants the meeting moved to the ward in question. “If Minto were to bring forward its Phase 2 application (for its Mahogany development) for example, it would be ideal to have a meeting in Manotick,� Moffatt said. There might only be a handful of cases like that to come up in the next four years of council, he said. A more likely solution for contentious issues is to call a special meeting outside of the regular ARAC schedule to hear from affected residents. “That way more people come out to it and tawa Carleton District School Board trustee Lynn Scott and you don’t have the optics of ‘We’re trying to city of Ottawa Stittsville ward councillor Shad Qadri. Councillor Qadri points out that students currently who graduate from the public elementary schools in Stittsville go on to attend South Carleton High School in Richmond which is 15 kilometers away from the community. Over 40 percent of the students attending South Carleton are from Stittsville. They are bussed to the school at a cost of around $600,000 per year.

at city hall downtown most of the year, with four meetings each year moving out to one of the city’s rural wards – Rideau-Goulbourn, Osgoode, West Carleton and Cumberland. But since the meetings had to be planned so far in advance, often the travelling meetings made it harder, not easier, for residents to attend. For example, when West Carleton residents grew upset over a city water testing policy last spring, they had to drive out to the Osgoode Community Centre on the southern edge of the city to attend the relevant ARAC meeting, which months before had been booked in thencouncillor Doug Thompson’s ward.

Community meeting about public high school Special to the News

News – A community meeting to discuss the importance of getting a public high school in Stittsville is taking place this Thursday, Feb. 19 at 7 p.m. in the upstairs hall at the Johnny Leroux Stittsville Community Arena in Stittsville. Having a public high school in Stittsville has been on the Ottawa Carleton District School Board’s capital projects list since 2006. Last year it was it was second on the list that was submitted to the Ontario Ministry of Education for

funding approval. No such funding was forthcoming but now a community meeting is being held to discuss ways to lobby the provincial government to ensure that funds for a new public high school in Stittsville are provided in the next round of provincial capital funding expected this spring. Those being invited to the meeting include Ontario Minister of Education Liz Sandals, Carleton-Mississippi Mills MPP Jack MacLaren, city of Ottawa mayor Jim Watson, Ot-

avoid you’,� Moffatt said. The committee can also schedule evening meetings at Ben Franklin if members feel there may be a lot of residents who want to address a particular agenda item. “If the agenda’s very light, there’s not much point,� Moffatt said. “But if there’s something that might have higher attendance, we might have an evening meeting.� Moving the meetings to Ben Franklin makes more sense than city hall, he said. The downtown location has limited parking and requires rural residents from all directions to fight through traffic to get there. The Centrepointe location has ample free parking and can be accessed easily from Hwy. 417. “It’s easier for the majority of people,� Moffatt said. Unless otherwise specified, meetings start at 10 a.m. the first Thursday of each month.

they selling poppies, mother? Selling poppies in town today?/ The poppy, my child, is the flower of love for the men who marched away./ Why did they choose a poppy, mother? Why not a beautiful rose?/ Because, my child, men fought and died in the fields where the poppy grows./ But why is the poppy so red? / Red is the colour of blood, my child, the blood that our soldiers shed./ The heart of the poppy is black, mother. Why does it have to be black? Black is the symbol of grief, my child, for the men who never came back./ But why mother, dear, are you crying so? Your tears are like winter rain./ My tears are my fears for you, my child, for the world is forgetting again.”… Amsted Design-Build of Stittsville has been chosen as a finalist in the Canadian Home Builders’ Association’s 2014 National SAM Awards.

The funds raised are going to help the learning commons…Tim Sheehan, president of Stittsville Minor Hockey Association (SMHA), was a guest on Liam Maguire’s “The Ultimate Hockey Show” on radio station 1310 last Saturday about 12:30 p.m. He was on the show to publicize Stittsville’s nomination in the Kraft Hockeyville 2015 competition, getting the word out so that the community can be one of the top ten finalists announced on Saturday, March 14. While on the show, he also talked with the host Liam Maguire about the Stittsville Minor Hockey Association which has about 70 teams this season, about the iconic Johnny Leroux after whom the Stittsville arena is named and about the late Rory Bradley who was a friend of Liam Maguire’s. Indeed, Liam named a son after Rory who was involved with the Stittsville Minor Hockey Association. Indeed, the SMHA presents an annual Volunteer of the Year Award that is named in honour of Rory Bradley.

Board-wide music festival at Sacred Heart High School John Curry

john.curry@metroland.com

News - The number of students at Sacred Heart Catholic High School jumped by several hundred on Thursday, Feb. 12, a fact that, if long term, could have been like music to the ears of school administrators. And, in fact, it was literally music to their ears as the additional students were there that one day to participate in the school’s fifth annual board-wide music festival.

And so you had music in the school’s theatre, in its chapel, in its learning commons, in several classrooms and even in the hallways where music students from over a dozen schools gathered in small groups to talk, relax and enjoy a day where music was front and centre. A principal location for the day was the school’s theatre where music students from various school bands gathered but also where they all got to perform on stage. See MUSIC FESTIVAL, page 43

Shannon Armstrong, left, standing, a Queens University music student, gives some tips about playing the tuba at a classroom clinic at the annual music festival at Sacred Heart Catholic High School in Stittsville on Thursday, Feb. 12.

Music festival offers clinics to student musicians Continued from page 42

Bands performing included the home school Sacred Heart High School senior concert band as well as concert bands from All Saints Catholic High School, Kemptville’s St. Michael Catholic School, St. Mark Catholic High School, St. Matthew Catholic High School, St. Peter Catholic High School, St. Patrick Intermediate School, St. Francis Xavier Catholic School (both intermediate and senior concert bands), Immaculata Catholic High School, Holy Trinity Catholic High School and Lester B. Pearson Catholic High School. Now, that’s a lot of music, with each band performing two pieces on stage. Another principal location for the music festival was the school’s chapel which became a performance space for several bands which presented two numbers and then received a 15 minute adjudication. The senior concert bands from Holy Trinity Catholic High John Curry/Metroland School and St. Patrick Catholic High Sacred Heart Catholic High School music teacher Matt Dawber, far left, directs the school’s senior jazz band as it performs in an adjudication School as well as senior jazz bands session at the annual music festival at the school on Thursday, Feb. 12. Mr. Dawber organizes the festival. from St. Michael Catholic School, St. Peter Catholic High School, St. Pius X Catholic High School and Sacred Heart Catholic High School performed in this space. One of the adjudicators was former Sacred Heart Catholic High School music teacher Brian Boggs who pointed out to the students in his adjudications that his comments, while praiseworthy in some respects, would include “butsâ€? as in “here’s what you did well ‌ but ‌â€? here’s what can be done to be better. The learning commons (former library) at Sacred Heart was another busy area for this music festival. It was there that Carleton University music professor James Wright held a clinic on song writing. There was also a clinic on “Music and Your Tabletâ€? in which Gennaro Busa demonstrated how a tablet device could assist a muJohn Curry/Metroland sician.

Members of the Manotick Brass Ensemble who are performing in the learning commons at Sacred Heart Catholic High School in Stittsville at its annual music festival on Thursday, Feb. 12 are, from left, Martin Luce on trombone, Keigan MacDonell on French horn, Harold Floysvik on tuba, Davide Da Silva on trumpet and Kazimier Samujlo on trumpet.

Sacred Heart hosts music festival Continued from page 43

This is not only by recording music but also by using apps for a variety of uses such as fingering charts and even slowing down music for better practising. The learning commons was also the “stage” for a mini-concert by the five-member Manotick Brass Ensemble which was making its third straight appearance at this annual music festival at Sacred Heart. The ensemble played a variety of music from a Canadian march “Hyde Park” to the iconic “Danny Boy” to a Nova Scotian sea shanty “Farewell to Nova Scotia” to “Be A Clown” to “Those Magnificent Men In Their Flying Machines” to “Maple Leaf Forever” to “He’s Got The Whole World in His Hands” to a concluding Latin dance number. The Manotick Brass Ensemble, which was formed in 2003, plays about 50 concerts a year and also offers a 45 minute “What’s the Buzz!!” introduction to brass instruments and brass music for schools. The group has made three musical trips abroad to Cuba, the Isle of Jersey and Ireland. Current members of the Manotick Brass Ensemble are Kazimier Samujlo on trumpet, Davide Da Silva on trumpet, Harold Floysvik on tuba, Keigan MacDonell on French horn and Martin Luce on trombone. Later in the day, two members of Sax Appeal, an area saxophone ensemble group, gave a clinic in the learning commons dealing with playing the saxophone. Sandy Gordon told the assembled music students that a key to playing the saxophone is simply putting air

through the instrument. He advised sax players to just pretend they are blowing air right across a room as this helps in playing in a forceful manner. How to hold the instrument so that the reed and mouthpiece are as horizontal as possible, how much mouthpiece a player should cover, and resting fingers on the keys of the instrument rather than off the instrument when not playing were among his tips given in the clinic. Dave Renault, who joined Sandy Gordon for the clinic, told the students that playing music is like golf. Having good equipment is good for both; having good technique is also good for both; but, just like playing golf, a musician has to put in the time with the instrument if he or she wants to be good. He pointed out that there are mouth and facial muscles which have to be developed for playing the saxophone which can only be done by continual practice. Playing the saxophone or any musical instrument is like being an athlete, he said – it’s physical. Sandy Gordon added that music should be fun to play and should not be a chore for the musician. The music festival featured a myriad of 30-minute long clinics held in various classrooms, presented by not only members of the Manotick Brass Ensemble and the Sax Appeal ensemble but also by others such as music teachers like Neil Bateman of Holy Trinity Catholic High School and student musicians from Queens University like Shannon Armstrong and Jacob Lewis. Indeed, Jacob Lewis gave a clinic on percussion not in a classroom but during the lunch break on the main stage in the theatre where percussion

instruments like the timpani or kettle drums, the marinba, the vibraphone and the snare drum were all set up for the various band performances. Jacob emphasized to the students at his percussion clinic that everything in percussion is about trying to use as little energy as possible when playing. So, a drummer should use fingers to hold and move drum sticks as this makes it easier than using only the wrists. All of a musician’s fingers should remain on the drumsticks at all times, he said. He also told the students that it is the height of a stroke that should determine the loudness of a sound. This means that it is always the same amount of effort involved in the drum stroke whether soft or loud. This can vary from a one inch high stroke which makes a quiet sound to a 12 inch high stroke which makes a loud sound. Jacob also gave tips about playing the timpani and the marinba which is a percussion instrument with a set of wooden bars which are struck with mallets to produce musical tones. Queens University music student Shannon Armstrong gave a clinic on playing the trombone and then later was in another classroom leading a clinic for baritone tuba and tuba players. But these classroom clinics covered virtually all the individual band instruments – flute, clarinet, saxophone, trumpet, French horn, trombone, tuba and guitar. Presenters included Melanie Methe, Alanna Kazdan, William Mann, Nick Gervais, Stephen Sedo, Zoianna Ashley, Lloyd McArton, Graham Kennedy, Thomas Flake, Moriah Gibli, Shannon Armstrong, Nat Michaelis and Kevin Simonar.

Following in the footsteps of former teammates Kris Twardek and Vana Markarian, Dario Conte has become the third Ottawa South Unitedbrewed player to join a professional soccer club academy from an exceptional group of groundbreaking 1997-born boys. It’s been an intense but exciting transition to a new life for Conte, one of two new players to join the Vancouver Whitecaps under-18 Major League Soccer academy in late January. “It’s not so bad because I got welcomed by my friend from my old team,” Conte says of fellow OSU alum Vana Markarian, who joined the Whitecaps last winter. “He’s showing me the ropes right now.” OSU Club Head Coach Paul Harris arranged a trial for Conte with Vancouver, and early in 2015, he was asked to join the Whitecaps. Conte previously had trials with a number of other pro clubs and always received positive feedback, although an offer would not follow. “Dario displayed tremendous determination throughout those challenges, and we’re very pleased to see him rewarded with this opportunity,” Harris underlines. “For all our young players, this is a great example of what can happen when you believe in yourself and never give up.” The experience from earlier trials served as valuable preparation for the Whitecaps audition, notes Conte, who found the initial rejections both discouraging and motivating. “You’re sad that you didn’t make the team, but then again, you want to show that you can make a pro team and that you’re persistent enough and good enough to do something,” explains the slick attacking midfielder. “You just keep going and keep pushing. It’s really about internal drive.” Conte is the latest member of the storied Force 1997 boys’ group to join a pro club, along with Markarian and Twardek, a member of Millwall FC’s academy in London, UK. All three were part of the first Ontario Youth Soccer League-champion squad from Eastern Ontario in 2013. “It’s certainly a rarity, if not a first, that three players from one team in Ottawa, a single age group, move on to join professional clubs,” Harris signals. “We’re very proud to see them move on, and we look forward to even more of our players reaching these high levels in the future.”

Less than two months to Jock River Race Special to the News

������ �������� ������ ������� �����

News - Given the current deep freeze that prevails, it may not seem possible but in less than two months, canoes and kayaks rather than snow and ice will be on the Jock River. Yes, Saturday, April 11 has been set as the date for the annual Jock River Race which will see a bevy of canoes and kayaks make their way along the Jock River. The 2014 Jock River canoe/kayak race attracted 91 entries with 150 participants in total. The race had initially been cancelled by long time volunteer organizer John Hiley but a couple of months before the race date, Ian Mockett

and Gaetan Plourde, approached Mr. Hiley and received his blessing to take over organization of the race. Gaetan Plourde and Ian Mockett are no strangers to paddling races as last year they also organized the first-ever Kingston to Ottawa paddling race following the Rideau Canal that was held in August. With a team of volunteers, the Jock River Race went ahead last year on a wet, cold and muggy Saturday, April 26. A late arriving spring had delayed the race which had originally been scheduled for Saturday, April 1, with the race date moved back on the calendar by two weeks.

MARY COOK Mary Cook’s Memories Lifestyle - There was a lot to grab my attention in church every Sunday, and it wasn’t always what the minister had to say from the pulpit. If the truth be known, I had trouble trying to figure out what he was talking about, as he flailed around pounding his bible on the rail. I was much more interested in waiting to see the well worn black book go flying into the congregation, which I was sure would happen. It would just be a matter of time. And then there was his wife, who Mother said was a pure angel. She sat ram-rod straight, and my brother Emerson said the whole place could blow up and he doubted if she would blink an eyelash. I would spend many minutes waiting for any movement from her, which never came all the time we went to the Lutheran Church in Northcote. Of course, I was keenly interested in seeing what the girls I went to school with had worn to church. And so that cut a fair bit of time out of the church service too. If one wore a new

Sunday service entertaining thanks to Herman and his wig

hat (even very young girls wore hats to church) I looked at it with envy, and I was reasonable sure I was committing a mortal sin by doing so, and was right up there with stealing pennies off the collection plate. And then there was old Herman. He sat by the East window, and I spent many minutes staring at his very bald head. It had a glow to it, which my brother Emerson said got that way because he rubbed it with goose grease before he came to church. My sister Audrey said that was pure nonsense. Goose grease was for shining your boots, not to be wasted putting a shine to a bald head. Some Sundays I couldn’t take my eyes off old Herman. He was known to consume a little too much of his homemade brew on a Saturday night, and it wasn’t unusual for him to come to church the worse for wear. He would be alright when the church service was just beginning, but with the hot sun beating on his bald head, the old stove belting out heat, and the droning of the minister, it didn’t take

long for old Herman to drop his head to his chest. And every few minutes he would waken and snap his head up, only to lose consciousness again seconds later. Well, one Sunday, right in the middle of winter, there was someone else in old Herman’s seat. And yet, it looked like old Herman: same bulbed nose, half-shut eyes, but the shiny head was gone. What was on his head looked very much like a tight hat of fine brown straw, and I wasn’t the only one glued to old Herman. Every eye in church was on him. Emerson started to laugh until Mother gave him a poke that settled him down in a hurry. I thought even the minister paused on his way up to the front of the church leading the choir, as his eyes fell on the sight in Herman’s pew. My sister Audrey, who Mother always said was smart beyond her years, leaned close to me and said, “Of course it’s Herman. He’s gotten himself a wig.� I had never seen a wig in the Northcote area before.

There were a few in the town of Renfrew I knew, but not out in Northcote. Well, the service went on, and I lost interest in looking for new hats, and keeping a close eye on the Minister’s wife -- my sight was glued to old Herman. That Sunday, we could have gotten along without the heat from the old stove, because the sun was pouring in through the east window, and of course, right onto Herman. I don’t think the minister was into his sermon five minutes when old Herman’s head fell to his chest. That in itself was not unusual, and to be expected. What wasn’t expected was what happened to the wig. It fell over his eyes with his first head-drop, and stayed there! It sat on his nose completely blocking his vision. With the curved seats in the pews it was impossible not to see what was happening. The minister’s voice got louder and louder. And it wasn’t until the organist pumped her feet on the two felt pedals with force and brought her hands down with a bang on the keys to start a

hymn that old Herman came to. Of course, he couldn’t see a thing. The wig covered the front of his bald head right down to the tip of his nose. That in itself was enough to startle the whole church, but what it did to old Herman was something to behold. He must have forgotten for the moment that he was wearing a wig, because he was blinded by it, and yelled in a voice that could be heard in the United Church down the road. “Where am I? What’s goin on?� Mr. Kallies, sitting right behind him, grabbed the back edge of the wig and righted it, allowing Herman to realize where he was. His face turned beet red, he grabbed the wig off his head, crammed it in his pocket, and bolted. He didn’t even wait for the plates to be passed for collection. As always at the Lutheran Church, after the service, people mingled at the back and had their visit. Not a word was mentioned about the wig or old Herman, but on the way home in the double cutter, my brother Emerson said the church service that day was as good as going to the picture show in Renfrew on a Saturday night.

Asparagus-stuffed chicken breasts elegant, easy recipe Foodland Ontario

Special to the News

Lifestyle - Serve this easy but elegant recipe with a green salad or potatoes and maple carrots for a special spring celebration. Preparation time: 25 minutes. Baking time: 25 to 30 minutes. Broiling time: two to three minutes. Serves four. Ingredients * 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts * 25 ml (2 tbsp) Dijon mustard * 25 ml (2 tbsp) chopped fresh tarragon * Salt and pepper * 4 slices provolone cheese * 16 asparagus spears, trimmed (about 250 g/8 oz) * 25 ml (2 tbsp) butter, melted * 50 ml (1/4 cup) fresh whole wheat bread crumbs Preparation Place the chicken between a couple pieces of waxed paper and pound with a mallet to flat-

ten to five millimetres (1/4-inch) thickness. Combine the mustard, tarragon, and salt and pepper to taste, and spread evenly over the rough side of each chicken breast. Top each with a cheese slice and four asparagus spears. Roll up the chicken, letting asparagus protrude on both ends, and secure with toothpicks. Place the rolls, seam-side down, on a parchment paperlined baking sheet. Brush with a little of the butter. Toss the bread crumbs with the remaining butter and pat the mixture onto stuffed breasts.  Sprinkle with pepper to taste. Bake in a 200 C (400 F) oven for 25 to 30 minutes or until juices run clear when the chicken is pierced. Broil for two to three minutes to brown the topping, if desired. Remove toothpicks and slice to serve. Tip: Allow toothpicks to protrude on side of stuffed chicken for easy removal after baking.

Bus trip to play at Slots Special to the News

News – It’s fun to go to the Slots at the Rideau Carleton Raceway. And a fun and convenient way to get there and back, with no fuss and no hassle and with someone else doing the driving is to go on the monthly bus trip from Stittsville to the Slots. Organized by Marion Gullock on behalf of the Stittsville Legion’s 55 Plus Club, these bus trips are happening on the first Wednesday of each month, with everyone welcome. The next trip is hap-

pening on Wednesday, March 4. The bus leaves from the Johnny Leroux Stittsville Community Arena at 12 noon, travelling directly to the Slots at the Rideau Carleton Raceway. The bus returns to Stittsville and the Johnny Leroux Stittsville Community Arena at 5 p.m. So, it’s just a great afternoon of fun and entertainment at the Slots. You can join the Winners Circle group and receive $5 off your lunch and $10 in playing money for the Slots.

The bus transportation to and from the Slots costs only $10 per person which is a great deal in itself. You get dropped off right at the Slots and picked up there right after your afternoon of fun. You might even be coming back to Stittsville with some big winnings – who knows? For more information about this upcoming bus trip from Stittsville to the Slots at the Rideau Carleton Raceway, please contact Marion Gullock at 613836-5254.

Canada Day activities may start earlier Special to the News

News - Stittsville’s Canada Day activities this year may start a little earlier in the day than in previous years. Stittsville Village Association (SVA) president Tanya Hein remarked at the SVA’s meeting on Thursday, Feb. 12 when discussion turned to this year’s Canada Day activities hosted by the SVA that there may be efforts made this year to get more people at the activities earlier in the day. Traditionally these Canada Day activities have not gotten underway until 3 p.m. President Hein suggested that attractions to draw people to the site earlier might include a farmers market or a sports

tournament. She also said that the SVA may make the site of the activities a little more compact this year, perhaps by using just one stage rather than two like last year. The SVA is receiving a $1,500 grant from the city of Ottawa for the Canada Day activities. The SVA is applying for a Heritage Canada grant which might be in the $3,000 to $6,000 range. In addition, the SVA will be approaching local businesses for corporate support. The SVA’s committee to organize this year’s Canada Day activities has begun to meet.

The city’s relationship with Plasco Energy Group is over. Ottawa city staff recommended cutting ties with Plasco on the same day the waste-to-energy company sought creditor protection, cutting 80 employees loose. Plasco made the move on Feb. 10, a few weeks after missing a third city deadline to acquire financing to build a new $200 million facility on Moodie Drive. The environment committee will likely put a rubber stamp on the city manager’s recommendation at a meeting this week, the committee’s chairman, Capital Coun. David Chernoshenko said. “It’s not in doubt that council will agree with the recommendation and end our relationship with Plasco,” he said. The city first signed a contract with Plasco in 2011 in the hope Ottawa could take advantage of lower waste disposal rates provided by the company’s plasma gasification technology to convert garbage into electricity. The city would have paid $82.25 per tonne of waste, which would have amounted to $9.1 million a year. “The council felt here was a promising technology that the city could help to bring along and would benefit us if they found a way to do it,” Chernoshenko said. The contract did not tie any city funding into the new facility and required Plasco come up with financing on its own. The last missed deadline was Dec. 31. Chernoshenko said he did not think the city was too lenient in giving Plasco two extensions. “It’s not as if we were giving them a break,” he said. “It was clearly taking longer for them to get the environmental approvals, to work out kinks in their system and raise the funding,” he explained the city had nothing to lose in the sense it wasn’t costing the taxpayer anything to have given them extensions. The councillor said the silver lining to the Plasco deal falling through is the city will now get to pick a new leading technology as an alternative. He said using incinerators to burn residential garbage was an option that was still on the table, but that it is an expensive way to dispose of waste. The city’s landfill still has more than 20 years left of capacity, but the city plans to explore other options and will likely pick an alternative in early 2016, Chernoshenko said. Plasco now has 30 days to restructure under the province’s Companies’ Creditors Arrangement Act, but that deadline will likely be extended as long as the company can prove it is actively working towards a solution.

which will be shown on Thursday, Feb. 26 at 7 p.m. will be “The 100 Year Old Man Who Climbed Out of the Window and Disappeared.” This Swedish movie with English sub-titles, which runs for 114 minutes, is based on an international best selling novel by Jonas Jonasson. It tells the story of a centenarian who decided that it is not too late to start over. Desperate to avoid his 100th birthday party, Alan Karlsson, played by Robert Gustafsson, slips out the window of his nursing home room and heads to the nearest bus station. A decision to steal a suitcase from a fellow passenger then takes Allan on a journey that involves nasty criminals, a lot of cash and even an elephant. Next up in this 2015 Stittsville Rotary International Film Series will be the American film “Whiplash,” running 106 minutes. It will be shown on Thursday, March 26 at 7 p.m. It tells the story of how far someone will go to be the best. Andrew, played by Miles Teller, is a promising 19 year old drummer. He is picked to join the school band led by a ruthless disciplinarian music instructor whose one goal is to make his students realize their potential. The movie is really a study of the

thin line between passion and obsession. It is packed with great jazz standards, dazzling musical recitals and intense performances. Wrapping up this 2015 Stittsville Rotary International Film Series will be “Phoenix,” a 2014 German film with English sub-titles that runs for 98 minutes. It will be shown on Thursday, April 23 at 7 p.m. This is the story of a fiercely determined woman caught between a tragic past and an uncertain future. Emerging from a concentration camp at the end of World War Two, Nelly Lenz, played by Nina Hoss, wants everything to be exactly the way it was before the war. There are passes available for this 2015 International Film Series. The initial cost for all four films was $40 each but now the price has been reduced to $30 since one film has already been screened. These passes are fully transferable. These passes are available for sales now at the Gaia Java Coffee Company shop at the Stittsville Shopping Centre (Shoppers Drug Mart plaza) on Stittsville Main Street in Stittsville and also at Tag Along Toys at 499 Terry Fox Drive in Kanata.
