Quarterback loves his hometown john.curry@metroland.com

News - Last fall, although only a freshman, Tyler Rehman was the starting quarterback for the Saint James prep school in Maryland, setting records and leading the team to a winning record while gaining accolades as one of the top ranked freshman quarterbacks in all of the United States. And while an outstanding athlete himself, he is also a great fan.

Of what, you ask?

Why, of his hometown of Stittsville. “Stittsville to me is like heaven,� Tyler said while at his Savage Drive home in Stittsville during a recent school break from Saint James. He says that he gained an even greater appreciation for Stittsville after he left last August to attend St. James prep school on an arrangement that fully pays his $42,600 annual tuition there.

He says that he gets really excited whenever he talks about Stittsville to others – telling them about walking along main street, using the bicycle trails, being a big town

with a small town feel. “Stittsville to me is the place to be,� he says, paying it perhaps the highest compliment possible when he, as a footballer, says that if Stittsville were in the United States, it would be a perfect candidate to be a Friday night high school football town.

Tyler attended Holy Spirit Catholic School and then St. Stephen Catholic School before going on to Sacred Heart Catholic High School in Stittsville where he attended grade nine before leaving to attend Saint James prep school in Maryland last August to play football.

And while football is now his sport of focus, he also played hockey for ten years in Stittsville including one memorable year when he played for the Stittsville Ice Dragons which won everything in sight that season, with an overall record of 46 wins and no losses. Indeed, that was quite a season as Tyler was also playing football with the Kanata Knights at that time as well, sometimes arriving at the rink with his football equipment still on.

Besides experiencing a winning hockey season, that was also the season that he quarterbacked his Kanata Knights team to a championship as well. Indeed, he points to this as the time when his football career started to really get rolling because he then went on to play for Team Ontario and Team Canada and started to get noticed by coaches and scouts, leading eventually to the offer to attend Saint James School in Maryland at age 14.

It was through Dan Lachance, president of the Kanata Knights and Tyler’s coach with both the Knights and the Myers Riders, that Saint James learned about Tyler, leading to an invitation to visit the school and consider becoming a student there.

One of the big attractions about Saint James was the fact that the quarterback position on the school’s fledgling varsity football team was open, providing an opportunity John Curry/Metroland for Tyler to compete for the starting quarterback position.

organization that represents all of the museums in the city, said at the launch of this Ottawa Museums and Archives Virtual Collections Catalogue that the new website greatly expands the artifacts and historic documents available to the public at any given time. “All of the museums have quite large collections but typically only a small percentage is used in exhibits,� Jamieson said at the unveiling ceremony for this new online collections catalogue on Monday, March 30. “This allows us to get all of our artifacts online over time and people will be able to see what we have,� she said.

This new online collections catalogue can be seen at www. ottawa.minisisinc.com .

Right now this new website hosts over 30,000 records, each searchable by keywords and collection. As the various museums continue to digitize more records and artifacts, the number of online records will continue to grow.

Kathryn Jamieson, curator/ manager of the Goulbourn Museum and chair of the Ottawa Museum Network, speaks at the March 30 unveiling of the new online collections catalogue involving digitized records and artifacts from the city of Ottawa archives, city of Ottawa operated museums and five community museums including the Goulbourn Museum.

News - Goulbourn Museumâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s artifacts, images and documents are now going to be available to the world thanks to a new virtual collections catalogue for museums in the city of Ottawa.

The Goulbourn Museum at Stanleyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Corners just south of Stittsville is one of five community-run museums in the city who are involved with this digitization project. Other community museums involved are the diefenbunker in Carp, the Osgoode Township Museum in Vernon, the Bytown Museum in downtown Ottawa and Museoparc in Vanier. The collection catalogues from the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s archives and two cityrun museums, the Billings Estate National Historic Site and the Cumberland Heritage Village Museum are also part of the project. Other museums and even historical and heritage groups may also become involved with the project in the future.

Tyler Rehman throws for 24 touchdowns as freshman

Continued from page 1

He earned the position and what a season he had: The team finished with a record of six wins and three losses, quite an improvement from the three win/five loss record of the season before; He threw for 24 touchdowns in the team’s nine games, averaging about 200 yards passing per game, while throwing only six interceptions all season long; And more than this, he earned the respect of his teammates, some of whom are in grade 12, for his leadership.

“I like to be a leader out there,” he says, making sure that he takes control of situations.

And being the starting quarterback on a high school football team in the United States is quite an achievement in itself. Wayne Jacobs, a former NCAA Division 1 quarterback himself who now runs the National Capital Quarterback Academy in Ottawa and who has worked with Tyler for four years, notes that playing high school ball in the United States is quite an accomplishment for a Canadian, adding that for a quarterback “…starting as a freshman is rare even if he was from Texas, so to be a Canadian having that success as a freshman is amazing.”

Indeed, how Tyler started playing football in the first place and how he became a quarterback is quite a story in itself.

Hockey was his sport but when he was nine years old, a couple of friends urged him to give football a try. In addi-

tion, his two sisters, Chanel and Olivia, wanted to give cheerleading a try. Tyler, living in Stittsville, should have signed up with the Bell Warriors as Stittsville is in the Warriors assigned territory. But the Bell Warriors did not have a cheerleading program whereas the Kanata Knights did. Tyler’s mother, Janice Rehman, had to go all the way to the president of the National Capital Amateur Football Association to get the waiver that Tyler needed to be able to play with the Kanata Knights.

And, ironically, Bell Warriors resisted the waiver, claiming that you never know when a player is a diamond in the rough. Mrs. Rehman recalls saying at the time that Tyler had never played football, knew nothing about football and definitely was no “diamond in the rough.”

Well, Tyler did turn out to be a “diamond in the rough” as things have turned out.

But it has not been easy for Tyler, requiring a lot of hard work and dedication. But it has also been a love affair as Tyler admits that he fell in love with football right from the start. Indeed, he even recalls falling asleep sometimes with his football helmet on.

And Tyler has always been a quarterback, right from the beginning. At his first practice, he was asked what position he wanted to try out for. He had no idea, so he asked his mother and she said quarterback because it was the only football position that she knew. And so Tyler became a quarterback even though he had never picked up a football and had no idea how the game was played.

He had a steep learning curve in his first two years playing tyke football in which he admits that he was fairly mediocre. But then things started to come together for him.

He says that he still remembers his first touchdown pass like it was yesterday – it was a pass on a hook pattern to the left side of the field.

Tyler played for the Kanata Knights for five years, from tyke through to pee wee. In addition, he played summer football with the Myers Riders provincial team. This all led to his eventual attendance at St. James prep school and his sensational freshman season last fall.

And now he is looking forward to three more years at St. James, leading the team to more suc-

cess. And at the same time, he will be attending football camps. Last November he attended the Adidas Showcase Top 10 prospect camp in Michigan. He has been invited to the Nike Elite 11 Quarterback Competition and the Rival Camp Series which are designed basically for high school seniors wanting a shot at college scholarships. Ten of the past 11 Heisman Trophy winning quarterbacks in the United States attended the Elite 11 Competition. Attendance at these camps is helping Tyler get his name out there and known in the American college football community.

He is also planning to visit various universities this summer to build relationships with the coaches. He and his mother have already visited a number of schools including the University of Southern California (USC). Indeed, he and his mother even stood together on the 50 yard line in the huge USC football stadium.

His mother Janice is still amazed that a boy from Stittsville is making such inroads with football schools in the States.

“My dream is to play football professionally,” Tyler says while adding that his other dream is to be a firefighter or a paramedic.

That’s because he likes being in stressful situations as he has the ability to stay calm at such times, adding that people say that he has “ice in my veins.”

Tyler admits that he has a lot of inner drive to do well at football.

“I sleep, eat, dream football,” he says, always seeking to improve. He notes that a quarterback can never be perfect, can never have enough arm strength and can never have quick enough footwork. However, he does note that his footwork is good.

“My trademark is my footwork,” he says about his football play. His coach at St. James prep school, John Root, says that the first thing that he and his staff noticed about Tyler was “his excellent footwork. “ Coach Root points out that while many quarterbacks have strong arms or can run fast, few have “great feet.”

Wayne Jacobs agrees with this assessment, noting that Tyler has the footwork of a college freshman, saying that Tyler’s footwork as a quarterback “is off the charts.”

Tyler says that coach Jacobs has always said

that footwork is essential for a quarterback, saying that a quarterback basically throws with his feet, not his arm.

Coach Root says that what sets Tyler apart is his work ethic.

“He never stops working on his game,” coach Root says about Tyler in an email. “He lifts wrights, runs and is always working on his footwork and throwing. “ Tyler also watches a lot of film to help him recognize various defensive coverages.

For Tyler, besides football, he opted for track, a sport which would help him improve his speed for football. He says that he is a good runner but wants to work on his speed so that he will be faster and make himself even more of a threat at quarterback.

This spring, he is thinking of playing either baseball or tennis. He laments that the school does not have a hockey team which would have been great for him. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I miss hockey,â&#x20AC;? he says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was fun.â&#x20AC;?

Tyler made the honour roll at the school in the first half of the year.

Tyler is most appreciative of all of the support that he has received from his family and friends as he moves along in his football career â&#x20AC;&#x201C; this includes his mom Janice, his dad Mujeeb, and his sisters. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We truly have become a football family,â&#x20AC;? his mother says.

He has not forgotten his roots either. He says that Stittsville raised him while the Kanata Knights helped develop him as a person and as a player.

Saint James School is an independent co-educational boarding and day school founded in 1842 in Hagerstown, Maryland. Enrolment is about 225 students, with students coming from 13 different countries and 18 States. As football coach John Root writes, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Saint James is not a football centric school.

News - What do coaches think about Stittsvilleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Tyler Rehman?

Wayne Jacobs of the National Capital Quarterback Academy in Ottawa, who has been involved with Tyler for four years, says that Tylerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s greatest intangible attribute is his maturity as such a young age (Tyler is 15 years old).

He writes in an email that for Tyler to reach his full potential as a quarterback, he will have to continue working on every aspect of his game. For instance, coach Jacobs acknowledges that Tyler has good arm strength but that this is an area that he can always improve as a quarterback.

He praises Tylerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s work ethic in working on improving himself as a player.

John Root, Tylerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s coach at Saint James prep school in Maryland, writes in an email that when Tyler arrived

at the school last August and started to practice there, â&#x20AC;&#x153;we knew we had someone special to run our offense.â&#x20AC;?

And coach Root goes on to list some of Tylerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s assets. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He has excellent pocket presence and knows when to step up in the pocket or roll out to evade a pass rush. That is something that comes naturally to him.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Tyler also is extremely accurate with his throws. He makes receives better because he puts the ball where it can be caught. Rarely does he have an errant throw. He has one of the nicest throwing motions I have seen.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Next, he is very football smart. Many high school quarterbacks lock on to one receiver and throw the ball to them regardless if they are open. A few may make one read and choose between two receivers. Tyler can routinely use pre-snap reads and work his way through several receivers to find the open player.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Tyler has some God given talent and the rest comes from hard work.â&#x20AC;?

He is also working with Donovan Dooley, a quarterback coach based in Detroit. Tyler has developed an ability to read defensive coverages so that he does not make many mistakes in game action.

Tylerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s mother Janice says that all of Tylerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s coaches, both in hockey as well as football, have viewed him as a coachable player. And just like he had to work hard when he played hockey since he was not a natural skater, so too he has had to work hard in football to become a better player.

Mrs. Rehman says that even Tylerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s teachers, going back as far as grade one, have observed that there is some special about Tyler and his work habits.

Tyler has a special relationship with John Shaw of Stittsville, a former South Carleton High School quarterback who went on to play Canadian university football. Last year they worked out together and Tyler acknowledges that John has had a big influence on him. Indeed, he credits John Shaw as well as coach Wayne Jacobs for ensuring that he was in the best condition of his life when he went to St. James prep school last August.

This summer Tyler hopes to work in landscaping while working out in

Rotary Club members hear about Citizen Advocacy John Curry

john.curry@metroland.com

News - Citizen Advocacy is an organization which works with those of all ages with all types of disabilities.

It offers a host of programs which Maria Redpath, the community engagement coordinator for Citizen Advocacy, outlined to members of the Rotary Club of Ottawa – Stittsville at its meeting on Wednesday, April 1.

The goal of these programs is to prevent those suffering from a disability from becoming isolated from the community. All disabilities, such as physical and intellectual, are included in the Citizen Advocacy mandate.

One of the main programs offered by Citizen Advocacy is its “Everyday Champions” program in which a volunteer is matched on a long term basis with a person with a disability.

Through this program, the person with a disability overcomes isolation and loneliness and enjoys friendship and support with his matched volunteer.

Redpath pointed out in these matches, the volunteer gets as much out of it as the person with the disability as the volunteer is making a

difference in a life.

One example of a successful match is the case of John who was matched with volunteer Peter about six years ago. John’s desire was to learn how to ride the bus. Peter helped him in this and now John is able to travel around the city on the bus. He has a part-time job as a result and serves on Citizen Advocacy committees because he is now able to move around on his own on the bus.

Citizen Advocacy has another program which matches volunteers with age related people with a disability.

This could be, for instance, a person with a vision impairment. The volunteer might go shopping with the person or have a weekly dinner with him or her or do something simple like reading an apartment building newsletter to the person so that he or she would know what is going on in his or her place of residency.

Other programs offered include a facilitated program that helps a person with a disability create a plan for life; a networking program that with the help of a facilitator establishes a network of support people for a person with a disability; a support program for parents of children with disabilities; a support group for

adult siblings of a person with a disability; and a support group for siblings of a child with a disability.

One problem faced by Citizen Advocacy is enough volunteers to meet the demand for matches in its “Everyday Champions” program.

There are presently about 302 of these matches in place but there are another 291 people with disabilities on a waiting list, waiting for a volunteer. The average time for a person to be on the waiting list is almost three years, although some are matched quickly and others take longer to be matched.

Citizen Advocacy tries to match volunteers

with people with disabilities who are in the same community e.g. Stittsville.

“There is a big need,” said Redpath in regard to volunteers to be involved in Citizen Advocacy programs. That’s why she has been out talking with various community groups such as the Rotary Club of Ottawa – Stittsville to raise awareness of Citizen Advocacy, its programs and the need for volunteers.

Citizen Advocacy raises about half of its revenues. Other funding comes from the Ontario Ministry of Community and Social Services, the Trillium program, United Way and the city of Ottawa.

Warren Reddick of Richmond passes away Special to the News

School Boys Curling Championships.

Warren never forgot his roots and often returned to his hometown with curlers from Richmond to participate in the Riverfield Men’s Curling Bonspiel.

Warren also served as a president of the Ottawa Valley Curling Association in 1995-96 and as a president of the Canadian branch of the Royal Caledonian Curling Club which is the mother club of the sport of curling and the governing body of curling in Scotland.

In addition, he was a member of the Governor General’s Curling Club. There are only 100 members in this Club plus 25 emeritus members.

Members come from across Canada.

The main focus of the Governor General’s Curling Club is to recognize those who have made a significant contribution to curling, either locally, provincially or nationally and not only as competitive curlers but also as builders and administrators.

One of the objectives of this honourary Curling Club is to promote the growth of curling in Canada and to preserve its history.

The Governor General’s Curling Club has no premises of its own and is supported only by Club events and donations. The Club’s crested red blazers are a familiar sight at curling events everywhere including national and international championships.

The Governor General’s Curling Club has a history going back to 1874 when it was founded by Lord Dufferin who was then Canada’s Governor General. He built a covered curling rink at Rideau Hall and became an avid curler himself. The curling rink was in place at Rideau Hall until 1939.

The Governor General’s Curling Club, which has enjoyed the patronage of Canada’s Governors General ever since Lord Dufferin, has played a significant role in the development of curling in Canada, especially in the years prior to World War One. It was in 1910 that the Club’s original name, Vice-Regal Curling Club, was changed to Governor General’s Curling Club.

Warren’s involvement with sports R0013118063-0205

News - Warren Reddick of Richmond passed away peacefully at home surrounded by his family on Saturday, March 28, 2015. He was 59.

An avid curler, he served as president of the Richmond Curling Club in the 1992-93 curling season and was one of the Club’s best curlers over the years.

In 1992, he and seven other curlers from the Richmond Curling Club won the Club’s first Ontario Curling Association provincial championship banner, winning the Bell Cellular Governor General’s double rink competition. Warren skipped one of the two Richmond rinks which first won the Zone playdowns in Carleton Place before going on to the Regional playdowns in Kingston where the Richmond rinks defeated rinks from Bancroft and Peterborough to advance to the provincial finals in Guelph.

Warren skipped a rink comprised of Bill Johnston, Ron Reddick and Rick Reddick while the other Richmond Curling Club rink was skipped

by Cliff Wilson and included Herb O’Heron, Al Wilson and Dan Roy. In the year 2000, these two Richmond Curling Club rinks were inducted into the Goulbourn Sports Wall of Fame for this provincial curling accomplishment.

Warren continued to be a top curler at the Richmond Curling Club over the years and earlier this year he and his team won the Friday morning Gray Cup League championship at the Club. It was to be his last curling victory as he then became too ill to continue curling after having battled cancer for three and a half years.

His passion for the game was instilled in Warren, as with all of the Reddick children, by his parents. The family had a set of curling irons salvaged from the Aubrey Curling Club which had burned down. Warren and his siblings used these curling stones on any frozen surface available during the winter to hone their curling skills. They also learned using some hand-made wooden curling rocks.

In 1970, at the age of 15, Warren and three others represented the province of Quebec in the Canadian

in Goulbourn was not restricted to curling. He also served as head coach of the Milkmaids ladies’ lob ball team sponsored by Ron and Irene Mowat.

Warren was born in April, 1955 in Ormstown, QC and was raised on a small farm near St. Chrysostome, QC, a rural community south of Montreal. He was the fifth boy of what would become a family of six boys and one girl.

Warren loved working with his hands. He did not believe in a throw away society.

If something was broken or did not run properly, he fixed it, even if it meant taking it all apart and putting it all back together.

He attended Centennial College in Toronto where he learned how to be a heavy duty equipment mechanic, going on to work his entire career in the heavy duty equipment industry as a heavy duty equipment mechanic.

He worked for Blackwood Hodge, Federal Equipment and eventually Equipment Sales and Service.

Through the late Mac Storey, Warren became involved with the Cemetery Board of St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church in Richmond and had taken on cemetery caretaking duties.

He never felt like it was a job because he loved to mow grass. He was always amazed at the number of people who visited the cemetery.

In her eulogy delivered at Warren’s memorial service at St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church on McBean Street in Richmond on Thursday afternoon, April 2, Ronna Reddick described her brother as “…a great friend, grandpa, step father, son-in-law, cousin, uncle, son and brother…” It doesn’t get any better than that and it says it all about Warren and his relationship with everyone he met.

Warren is survived by his wife Shirley (Armstrong) as well as by his step-children Jill Templeton (Rick), Darryl Gow (Julie) and Denzil Gow (Inga).

He is also survived by five grandchildren and many nieces and nephews as well as by his siblings Rodney (Sheryle), Malcolm (Pauline), Milton (Sheila), Frederick (Paula) and Ronna.

He was predeceased by a brother Melville as well as by his parents Ronald and Mary Reddick.

He also leaves behind “Wilson,” the cat that he and Shirley loved who was a real chum to Warren. Wilson did not leave Warren’s side in his last few days The family would like to thank Dr. Laurie, the nurses and palliative care team of the CCAC, Dr. Rabb and especially Kathy Fyke and Allison Joyce.

The memorial service was held at St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church on McBean Street in Richmond on Thursday afternoon, April 2.

Donations to St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church or to the Ottawa Regional Cancer Foundation would be appreciated.

Take up fight against fraud

E

ach year, thousands of people across the country lose millions of dollars through scams and fraudulent schemes.

The way to combat this is through public awareness. Letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s talk about fraud, open up a dialogue and report on the harmful aspects of this type of victimization.

According to the Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre, 66 per cent of Canadian-based mass marketing fraud that took place in 2014 was Internet and email based. Twenty per cent was conducted over the phone and the majority of victims are ages 50 to 70.

Fraud is a terrible thing. It preys on honest citizens who are perhaps investing funds to save for retirement, or making a donation to a charity they trust.

When the relationships break down and the money is gone, many victims feel shame and embarrassment.

However, they can play an important role in investigating fraud, but the anti-fraud centre says

just five per cent report the crimes. If they share their stories, they could prevent other family members, friends or neighbours from falling for the same scams.

Lottery and prize fraud schemes are also on the rise, and the CAFC says that in 2014 more than 4,000 Canadians reported prize or lottery fraud and 652 of those lost a total of more than $4.3 million.

We should all keep in mind the old adage, â&#x20AC;&#x153;If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.â&#x20AC;?

Keep in mind that most banking institutions and legal firms donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t send out blanket form emails to people asking for their personal information, so donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t give that information to anyone unless you have verified they are a company you deal with and know.

Doing a bit of homework and taking a few extra steps could make all the difference in not becoming a victim of fraud.

Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no shame in doing a good deed or saving for your future. We all just need to be a little more careful where we put our hard-earned money.

Philanthropy, brought to you by â&#x20AC;Ś

T

he dictionary defines charity as â&#x20AC;&#x153;the voluntary giving of help, typically in the form of money, to those in need.â&#x20AC;?

But the dictionary was written a few years ago. A more modern definition might read something like this: â&#x20AC;&#x153;the voluntary giving of help, typically in the form of money, to those in need, as long as the donor gets his name on a plaque.â&#x20AC;?

This is what we draw from recent trends in philanthropy, including the revelation the National Capital Commission has reversed its policy barring onsite donor recognition.

Instead of just mulling it over, as many of us would do, the NCC followed the familiar governmental pattern in paying $35,000 for some consultants to do the mulling.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not that thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s anything particularly new about the concept.

Donors rarely go unrecognized these days. University buildings and even seminar rooms are named after people and corporations. Concert programs list donors, sometimes even telling how much they gave.

Museums have galleries with peopleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s names on them.

And given this mask craze, the upcoming Masquerade Ball being held in Stittsville on Saturday, April 18 as a fundraiser for the Canadian Cancer Society should see lots of masks in evidence.

This Masquerade Ball is happening on Saturday, April 18 from 7:30 p.m. to 12 midnight at the Lions Hall on Stittsville Main Street. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to feature a professional DJ, dance contests, a silent auction, a canteen and more including masks of all kinds including, hopefully, some Hamburglar masks.

Those attending are being encouraged to attend in costume wearing a mask but it is not obligatory.

This Masquerade Ball is all the initiative of South Carleton High School grade 11 student Colleen Cooligan

who organized an initial Dance for the Cancer Cure fundraiser last year, raising $2,500 for the Canadian Cancer Society, and is now organizing a second annual one, this time adopting a Masquerade Ball theme.

People of all ages are welcome to attend and, in addition, masks and costumes are optional. It is far more important to be there and support the cause than not attend because of a lack of a mask and costume.

The Stittsville District Lions Club has donated the use of the Lions Hall for the event this year. Last year Colleen staged the event at the Kanata Legion as her grandfather is a member there and she was familiar with the site since she has volunteered a lot at the bingos there which are organized by her grandfather.

But this year she wanted to relocate the event closer to Stittsville and Goulbourn so that it is a more convenient location for her family and friends and her fellow students at South Carleton.

Colleen decided to organize last yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s initial event and carry on again this year because her grandmother died from cancer and her grandfather was diagnosed with cancer, although he is now in remission.

Colleen is also motivated by a de-

Colleen also admits that she loves to organize events and this Dance for the Cancer Cure fundraiser lets her pursue this passion as well as a similar passion for dance, as she is a former competitive dancer.

News - The new French Catholic high school now under construction in Stittsville could be named after a 19th century lumber merchant, a recent politician and Francophone advocate or a former Ottawa archbishop.

The names of lumber merchant Joseph Aumond, politician Claudette Boyer and Archbishop Joseph-Aurele Plourde are the three on a short list of names for the new school that was approved recently by the Board of Trustees of the Conseil des ecoles catholiques du Centre-Est. These three names will now be presented to the school’s naming committee which includes parental representation which will then chose one of the three names and make a recommendation to the Board of Trustees for approval.

Joseph Aumond (1810-1879) was a lumber merchant who initially operated a general store in Bytown and then around 1830 began operating in the timber business in the Ottawa Valley, at one time operating one of the largest

News - A number of Broadway musical selections will be featured at the upcoming spring concert of the Goulbourn Male Chorus.

The 20 voice chorus, under the guidance of new music director Byron Hermann, will be singing a number of famous Broadway tunes in this concert entitled “The Bright Side of Life.” This will include “Ol’ Man River,” “Bring Him Home,” “Luck Be A Lady,” “Can You Feel The Love Tonight,” “Always Look On The Bright Side of Life” and more.

But there will be more than just these familiar Broadway tunes presented at the concert.

The chorus will also perform a variety of folk songs and spiritual favourites including “Oh Shenandoah” and “Swing Low Sweet Chariot.”

Besides this new inclusion of Broadway songs in a Goulbourn Male Chorus concert, this spring’s concert will also be presented at a new location – the Trinity Presbyterian Church on Richardson Side Road. It is a recently built facility that features superb acoustics and, perhaps just as important for any audience, comfortable seating.

This will also be the Goulbourn Male Chorus’ first public performance under the group’s new music director Byron Hermann who has replaced founding music director Robert Dueck.

“Byron brings his own unique style to rehearsals and to the selection of music,” says Ian Glen who is vicepresident of the Goulbourn Male Chorus and chair of its Artistic Committee. “Branching out into Broadway musi-

cal numbers is proving to be both challenging and lots of fun,” he adds.

This spring concert will be presented on Saturday, May 9 at 2:30 p.m. at the Trinity Presbyterian Church on Richardson Side Road near Huntmar Drive.

Besides the musical offerings of the full Goulbourn Male Chorus, the concert will also feature the “Men of Note” a cappella ensemble which will be performing springtime music selections.

There will also be audience sing along numbers.

Tickets at $15 each are available from chorus members as well as at the Gaia Java Coffee Company shop and Brown’s Your Independent Grocer, both in Stittsville. In addition, tickets are available online at www.goulbournmalechorus.com .

Free information session on April 20 Special to the News

News - There are various housing options available for persons suffering from the symptoms of mental illness.

These various options do have implications for caregivers of these people.

All of this will be discussed at an upcoming meeting hosted by The Oasis in Kanata, a community outreach program of the Glen Cairn United Church in Kanata for caregivers of those suffering from the symptoms of a mental illness. This free information session which is open to all those caring for a person suffering from the symptoms of mental illness will be held on Monday, April 20 starting at 7 p.m. at the Glen Cairn United Church on Abbeyhill Drive in Kanata. Representatives from three local organizations which deal with such housing will be on hand at this information session.

A speaker from the Crisis Bed Unit of the Ottawa General Hospital’s Mobile Crisis Team will describe the variety of clients served, some of the housing possibilities available to them and how this is all managed.

A speaker from Ancoura, an organization dedicated to providing affordable housing and supportive community environments for adults living with a mental illness, will discuss the organization’s origins and how its solutions differ from other housing options.

A speaker from the Mental Illness Caregivers Association will explain that organization’s activities, its Housing Trust program and general issues of advocacy in housing matters for those suffering from the symptoms of mental illness.

For those interested in attending this free information session, a report published by the Mental Health Commission of Canada in 2013 entitled “Turning the Key: Assessing Housing and Related Supports for Persons Living with Mental Health problems and Illness” does pro-

vide an overview of the housing situation for the mentally ill across Canada. This report is available at www.mentalhealthcommission.ca and is also on the website of The Oasis in Kanata at www.TheOasisKanata.ca .

The community re-integration of persons suffering from the symptoms of mental illness which took place across Canada throughout the 1970’s and 1980’s was based on the premise that a person with a mental illness would be better cared for and would recover from their illness with appropriate medical and psychiatric supports if they were close to family caregivers and community peers. Since then, several studies have shown that this strategy has not been entirely successful. Emotionally and financially stressed caregivers is one concern.

Caregivers also have concerns about how and where to find appropriate housing for their loved ones when they can no longer shelter and care for them, either due to their own illness, a lack of sufficient finances, a worsening of the mental illness of the loved one or their own death, which leaves the loved one without the support of a caregiver.

This upcoming information session will explore all of these caregiver concerns as well as other issues affecting caregivers for those suffering from the symptoms of mental illness.

The Oasis in Kanata not only hosts free information sessions for caregivers of those suffering from the symptoms of a mental illness but also offers a monthly caregiver support group facilitated by program manager Gerald Joy, a professional social worker with experience in the mental health field.

For information about this upcoming free information session on Monday, April 20 or about other programs of The Oasis in Kanata, please email info@TheOasisKanata.ca or leave a voice message for the program manager Gerald Joy at 613-435-1100.

‘Splash 2015’ at Stittsville library Edna Marlow has been painting for over 20 years and loves nature and old buildings. Her painting in this exhibition is entitled “Almonte Falls.”

Lily May finds that she always learns new techniques whenever instructor Heather Gallup gives a demonstration in class. Her art in this exhibition includes “Dog Princess,” a painting created as a keepsake depicting her son’s 13 year old dog, and “Forest Glade,” showing a cottage once owned at Sharbot Lake.

Colleen McRae finds painting with watercolours extremely satisfying as well as very demanding.

Her works in this exhibition include “Fall Chaos” showing the results of a late fall wind storm, “Foreboding” which was done in a learned technique involving the placement and later removal of plastic wrap on the painting, and “Grampie’s Barn,” showing a barn in Nova Scotia.

Jon Pammett, who has always wanted to try painting, has his first effort on exhibit in the display case associated with the ArtSpace Wall.

Kathleen Parker likes travelling and photography and finds that painting is a great way to revisit the photos from where she has travelled. “Floating in the Big Blue” shows fish as seen while snorkelling at Hawaii. Her work “Bloomin’ Begonias” arose from a photo taken at a garden tea party in Kanata.

Marilyn Ross has two works in the exhibition: “Brander’s Lane” showing an abandoned shed and “Hibiscus.”

Allison Weber enjoys Heather Gallup’s watercolour painting classes, finding them both fascinating and challenging with many new techniques to absorb each week. Her painting “A Country Garden” shows a picket fence with bountiful flowers while her work “Water Lilies” shows the beauty and serenity of water lilies.

Instructor Heather Gallup is an accomplished watercolour artists in her own right, with landscapes and floras as two of her main subjects.

Her work can be viewed at http://heather-gallup. artistwebsites.com .

The watercolour classes which Heather Gallup instructs are currently being offered in Kanata through to June 18. They run from 12:30 p.m. to 3:30 p.m. on Thursdays. Registration is still available online or in person at any city of Ottawa registration counter.

She also instructs fall and winter art classes through the city of Ottawa at the Eva James Community Centre in Kanata.

Heather Gallup can be contacted at 613-2692964 or via email at hlgallup@gmail.com.

News - “Splash 2015” lives up to its name.

It is an exhibition of art filled not only with splashes of colour of all tones but also with a splash of subjects and scenes.

This “Splash 2015” exhibition at the ArtSpace Wall at the Stittsville branch of the Ottawa Public Library is displaying works by artists who take instruction from Heather Gallup, an artist who gives watercolour art classes through the city of Ottawa.

And this is not the first time that these artists have exhibited their works on the ArtSpace Wall at the Stittsville library branch. The first such Splash exhibition happened in 2008 when the ArtSpace Wall was just beginning.

The Splash exhibition has now become an annual event on the ArtSpace Wall, taking place each April.

And just who are these artists with their art in this “Splash 2015” exhibition?

Linda Christianson enjoys her art lessons with Heather Gallup, not only because of the creativity of the art itself but also because of the companionship of members of the group. In this exhibition, her paintings include “Memories,” a portrayal of the passing of a good friend, and “Orchid Paradise,” a large detailed painting.

Heather Cloutier has been taking watercolour classes in her retirement. In this exhibition, you will be able to see her painting “Dalmatians” which won first place at the Ottawa Orchid Society Show in 2013. She also has a smaller painting entitled “A Royal Visit” on display. It is a painting displaying monarch butterflies visiting a garden.

Jennifer Eady has learned to use watercolours effectively under Heather Gallup’s guidance. Her works in this exhibition are entitled “Columbine” and “Geranium.”

Lou-Ann Edwards loves watercolour paintings for its vibrant colours as well as its softness. Her painting “Memories of Hawaii” depicts the plumeria as a beautiful flower which blossoms in a variety of colours.

Bill Fryer has two paintings in this exhibition: “Rock, Water and Vegetation” and “Trembling Aspen in Autumn.”

Barbara MacIntosh has two paintings in the exhibition as well: “Pomegranates” which features soft colours and shadows and “Landing Pad,” depicting a water lily and emphasizing the contract in colours between the paleness of the flower against the harshness of leaves and water.

LONGWOOD HAS MADE ADULT BUNGALOW LIVING AFFORDABLE FOR YOU!

Date changed for Upper Jock River Paddling Race News - The late spring has caused the rescheduling of the annual Upper Jock River Paddling Race.

Originally scheduled for this coming Saturday, April 11, the race has now been re-scheduled for Saturday, April 25 with a 12 noon start.

River conditions were being monitored, leading to the decision to reschedule the event.

Early bird pricing that is in effect until one week prior to the race start date is $15 per paddler and $30 for

a tandem or family class team. Early registration can be done online.

Race day registration will be open between 9 a.m. and 11 a.m. at the finish line area at Lennox Street in Richmond.

Race classes include both kayak (Recreational, Competitive and Tandem) and canoe (Recreational, Competitive and Solo). There is also a stand up paddleboard class as well as an unlimited class that covers any boat that does not fit into the other categories.

This race, which dates back to 1971, was originally held on the Jock River from Richmond downstream.

Since 1996, the race course has been upstream from Richmond, with the finish line at Jock River Park in Richmond. Over the years, the race has attracted anywhere between 80 and 140 canoes and kayaks.

Sponsorship of the race was initially done by the Rideau Valley Conservation Authority and then by the Richmond and District Kinsmen Club and subsequently by the Man-

Talking about Alzheimer’s Special to the News

News - It’s called “Heads Up For Healthier Brains.”

It’s a presentation about Alzheimer’s disease and dementia and it will be taking place on Sunday, April 19 at 11:30 a.m. at St. John’s Anglican Church Hall on Fowler Street in Richmond.

Everyone is welcome to attend although registration is required by phoning 613-838-9643 or 613-8386075 or emailing info@ saintjohnsrichmond.ca.

There is no cost to attend.

The presentation will deal with Alzheimer’s disease and dementia, the differences between normal

memory loss and memory loss due to dementia, the ten warning signs for Alzheimer’s disease and dementia and tips for maintaining a healthy brain.

The programs and services provided by the Alzheimer Society of Ottawa and Renfrew County will be explained.

This presentation is sanctioned by the Alzheimer’s Society and will be facilitated by Ian Henderson.

Alzheimer’s disease accounts for about 60 percent to 70 percent of cases of dementia. It is a chronic neurodegenerative disease that usually starts slowly and gets worse over time.

The most common early

symptom is difficulty in remembering recent events.

The cause for most Alzheimer’s cases is still mostly unknown except for a small percentage of cases where genetic differences have been identified as the cause.

Alzheimer’s is a disease that attacks the brain and is the most common form of dementia.

Dementia is a general term for a decline in mental ability severe enough to interfere with daily life.

Dementia and Alzheimer’s disease are not the same thing. You can have a form of dementia that is completely unrelated to Alzheimer’s disease.

Dementia is not a dis-

ease. It is a group of symptoms that affect mental tasks like memory and reasoning. It can be caused by a variety of conditions of which the most common is Alzheimer’s disease.

As dementia progresses, forgetfulness and confusion grow. It becomes harder for a person to recall names and faces. Dementia is a problem of the brain that a person is more likely to develop as the person ages.

Alzheimer’s disease, on the other hand, is a progressive disease of the brain that slowly impairs memory and cognitive function. The exact cause is unknown and there is no cure.

otick Lions Club before the race was co-sponsored by the city of Nepean and Goulbourn township in 1993.

The township of Goulbourn carried on with sponsorship of the race until municipal amalgamation in the year 2000, with the new city of Ottawa continuing the race sponsorship until 2003 when a group of volunteers took over organization of the race.

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 12, with the race date moved back on the calendar by two weeks.

Since 1996, the 12.6 kilometer long race has started on the Jock River at the Munster Road south of Franktown Road. From this start line, there is a shallow rapid a few minutes downstream, followed by a chute of fast water. The river then flows through open fields and farmland for several kilometers before several sharp bends signal the beginning of the Richmond Fen wetland through which the river runs.

When paddlers see a railway line on the south side of the river, it means the end of the Richmond Fen, with the river widening out considerably. This is followed by a long set of rapids followed by another set of rapids before the finish line at the Jock River Park in Richmond comes into sight.

Brothers wins medals at Peel Judo Championships Special to the News

Sports - Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re Stittsvilleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s judo family.

A trio of brothers has just won medals at the Peel Judo Championships in Woodbridge near Toronto. Finley Maclennan, 14, and Louis Maclennan, 7, both won gold medals while Connor, 9, captured a bronze medal.

Finley, who is a student at Sacred Heart High School in Stittsville, won his gold medal by winning all four of his matches by Ippon which is a scoring system used in judo in which a technique or move used is judged as decisive. This is usually a move which connects cleanly with good form and with little opportunity for the opponent to defend against it.

Finley, who started in judo under Sensei Ian King when he was seven years old in Wales where he was born, joined the Ottawa Judo Club in Glen Cairn in Kanata when the family moved back to Ottawa. Finley trains under the

Ottawa Judo Clubâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Head Sensei Brian Kalsen.

Finley is currently preparing for the Canadian National Championships in St. Jean de Richelieu, QC. He is also training with the Ontario provincial team and is a member of the Ontario High Performance Program, training at the Pan-Am Centre in Scarborough in Toronto.

Finleyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s brother Connor, who is 9 years old and a student at St. Stephen Catholic School in Stittsville, has been training at the Ottawa Judo Club since he was four years old.

He won a bronze medal at the Peel Judo Championships which was quite an achievement considering that he was fighting up a weight division for the first time. He produced some great performances in his matches to capture his bronze medal.

Finleyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s other brother, Louis, who is 7 years old and who has been training at the Ottawa Judo Club since he was four years old as well,

won a gold medal at the Peel Judo Championships. He won both of his matches by Ippon.

All three of these brothers train under the Ottawa Judo Clubâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Head Sensei Brian Kalsen who has been teaching judo in Kanata for many years to both youth and adults. This includes teaching the art of judo as well as the art of selfdiscipline.

Judo is a modern martial art, combat and

Olympic sport created in Japan in the late 19th century. One of judoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s features is its competitive element where the objective is to immobilize or otherwise subdue an opponent by using various moves or techniques.

Judo was informally demonstrated at the 1932 Olympic Games in Los Angeles but it was only at the 1964 Olympic Games in Tokyo that judo became an Olympic sport.

playing a strong Mississauga Wolverines team. The six hours of travel to get to the tournament and a late 8 p.m. start time for the game meant that the Hornets started slowly. However, the Hornets demonstrated their resiliency, playing through their fatigue to win the game by a 60-45 score.

On the second day of the tournament, the Hornets found themselves in the semi-final game against a talented Blessed Sacrament team.

The Hornets were down by 22 points in the first quarter but going into the third quarter, the hornets had

cut the deficit by eight points. But time ran out for the Hornets as they suffered their first loss of the tournament.

That meant that the Hornets went up against the host team, the Cambridge Centaurs, in the tournament’s bronze medal game.

The two teams were only one point apart at the end of the first quarter. But then the Hornets’ relentless defence came alive and they never looked back, winning the game by a 73-33 score and capturing the bronze medals.

Speed skating takes Max Cole both east and west in Canada John Curry

john.curry@metroland.com

News - Max Cole’s speed skating has taken him both east and west across the country.

The 14 year old grade nine student at Sacred Heart Catholic High School has recently participated in competitions in both Saskatchewan and New Brunswick.

He participated in the Canadian Nationals championships in Saskatchewan, competing in long track speed skating.

Max also competed recently in the Canada East competition in Fredericton, NB but in this competition, it was short track speed skating.

He says that he likes both long track and short track speed skating with no particular preference for either one.

Max, who has been speed skating for six years, is a member of the Ottawa Pacers speed skating club. He practices with the Club both at the

Brewer Park outdoor oval and at the Bell Sensplex in Kanata.

He practices twice a week during the speed skating season which begins in September and runs through until the end of March.

In the summer, he does dry-

land training and also cycles.

Max’s goal is to compete in the Canada Winter Games in four years’ time. He likes speed skating because of the “speed” involved and also because of the thrill he gets when he is racing and passes other competitors.

But speed skating is not all that occupies Max’s time.

He is also a Flight Corporal with the 872 Air Cadet Squadron which meets weekly at A.Y. Jackson Secondary School in Kanata. He has been an Air Cadet for two years now, getting involved on the recommendation of his father.

Max has also attended two summer camps with the Air Cadets.

Right now, he thinks that he would like to pursue a career in the Air Force.

In school, Max says that mathematics is his favourite subject.

“Math comes easy to me,” he says.

Lawn bowling season to begin on May 11th Special to the News

Kettle 13

2 km

Sports - The coming of spring means that the lawn bowling season is just about here.

The Goulbourn Lawn Bowling Club will be starting its 2015 season on Monday, May 11 and new members are most welcome to join.

The cost for new bowlers for their initial year of lawn bowling is just $75. What a deal!

There is bowling on Monday, Wednesday and Friday mornings from 9:30 a.m. to 11 a.m., followed afterward by refreshments and coffee and lots of conversation.

This season there will also be evening lawn bowling available as required.

Lawn bowling is an opportunity to exercise while having fun, all at a reasonable price. The only things that a bowler needs are flat smooth soled shoes and comfortable shorts and tees.

The Club provides the bowls free of charge for the first year.

The Goulbourn Lawn Bowling Club’s lawn bowling green is located on Huntley Road at Stanley’s Corners, right next to the Goulbourn Town Hall building (former Goulbourn municipal building).

For more information about the Goulbourn Lawn Bowling Club and the 2015 season,

please contact George Burns-Nichol at 613831-0939 or by email at gjbn@rogers.com .

It is also a sport that suits people from teens through to seniors because of its leisurely pace, its reliance on skill and its non-contact nature.

And, first and foremost, it is a game that is mostly played outdoors, with lots of opportunity for conversation and enjoying the fresh air. The objective in lawn bowling is to roll biased (that means that they are weighted, i.e. not perfectly round so that they will curve and bend as they move along the green) bowls so that they stop as close as possible to a smaller ball called a “jack” which has been placed at the other end of the green. Lawn bowling is played on a rectangular, precisely leveled area with manicured grass, divided into parallel playing strips called rinks.

In singles and pairs play, a player delivers four bowls in each end. In triples, three bowls are delivered by each player in an end while in fours, each bowler delivers two bowls in an end. Today the sport is played in over 40 countries and is a sport at the Commonwealth Games.

Lawn bowling is popular in the United Kingdom, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, Hong Kong, parts of the United States, Japan and, of course, Canada.

Johnny Leroux visits Hawks Special to the News

Sports - Winning the regular season championship. Memorable. Having the championship banner presented by Stittsville Minor Hockey Association Atom House League convenor Cory Garbolinsky. Awesome. Having a dressing room visit by the legendary Johnny Leroux after whom the team’s home arena in Stittsville is named. Priceless.

This has been the experience recently for the Stittsville Atom B4 Hawks hockey team which was the regular season champion of the Lanark Carleton Minor Hockey League’s Atom House B Redline division.

Early in the season, it did not look like the Hawks would be the league champions as the team began the season with one win and two losses. But then the Hawks turned it on, winning the next 18 regular season games and finishing the regular season with an impressive record of 21 wins and just 3 losses.

Other teams found the Hawks difficult to play against because all of the Hawks players contributed to the success of the team. All of the team’s forward lines put points on the board and all of the defence players came up big at critical times, especially the goalie who recorded eight shutouts in regular

C A N C E R

season play.

Over the Christmas holidays, the Stittsville Hawks Atom B4 team played in the Bell Capital Cup tournament.

This was the first time in the tournament for many of the Hawks players but the Hawks played well, only losing out in the semi-finals in double overtime.

The league championship banner was presented to the team in an on-ice ceremony at the Johnny Leroux Stittsville Community Arena on Tuesday, March 24. Besides receiving the banner, each player was presented with an individual banner commemorating the team’s championship season.

Not only was the team joined on the ice for the championship banner presentation by Johnny Leroux, Stittsville’s legendary hockey enthusiast after whom the arena is named, but also the team had a pre-ice time dressing room visit

by Johnny Leroux who showed them his wartime medals, explained their significance and presented each player with an autographed card that featured the poem “In Flanders Fields.”

No one associated with the Stittsville Hawks Atom B4 team is soon going to forget this special occasion when Johnny Leroux helped them celebrate their regular season championship.

Financial disclosure for separating spouses If you have made the decision to separate from your spouse, some of the most difficult issues to resolve can be related to money. Full financial disclosure between the spouses is critical, so that each person has a clear picture the finances on the date of separation and the date of marriage. Child support, spousal support, and division of family property all require proper financial disclosure.

Cheer Sport Sharks Continued from page 32

There were competitive cheerleading team demonstrations on display as well as cheerleading skills stations set up to let those interested discover what the sport of cheerleading is all about.

A raffle for spring supplies and Easter chocolates was held, with the prizes displayed as a unique seven foot tall prize tower.

Now in its 12th season, Cheer Sport Sharks has three gym locations in Ontario – the one in Stittsville as well as location in Cambridge and Ancaster.

Cheer Sport Sharks in Stittsville is holding team placement sessions for the upcoming season coming up. These sessions, which are open to everyone, will be held on Thursday, May 7 from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m.; on Saturday, May 9 from 12 noon to 2 p.m.; and on Sunday, May 10 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.

For more information about Cheer Sport Sharks in Stittsville, please check out the website www.cheersportsharks.com.

Financial disclosure of annual income is necessary in order to establish the correct child support payment, which is generally determined solely based on the number of children and the income of the paying parent. Annual income is also an important factor in establishing possible spousal support entitlement.

Each spouse will need to show the jointly- and solelyheld assets and liabilities, as well as any property that might be excluded from the calculation, on both the date of separation and date of marriage in order to determine how the family’s assets will be divided.

Detailed financial disclosure, including a sworn financial statement, forms part of the documentation required by the court if you chose to start a court process, or if you need to respond to one. Even if you and your spouse intend to resolve your separation outside of the courts, the same detailed financial disclosure is required.

If you do not provide the necessary financial information, your spouse may be able to challenge any agreements you have reached based on that non-disclosure, which creates uncertainty for both parties, and very likely significantly increased legal costs in the future.

Understanding your disclosure obligations and preparing full and accurate financial statements can be challenging.

A family law lawyer can provide you with information and advice you need to meet your obligations, which will form the foundation of a solid resolution to your separation.

Creating reptiles in Richmond John Curry

john.curry@metroland.com

News - A Reptile Art Show on Wednesday, April 1 at Richmond Public School was the culmination of a school-wide initiative that included an artist-in-residence, the creation of clay reptiles and lots of related visual arts and language arts projects, all creating awareness of endangered habitat, both globally and locally.

Thanks to a grant from the city of Ottawa through MASC (Multicultural Arts in Schools and Communities) as well as the support of the Richmond Public School Parent Council, Richmond Public School students had the opportunity of working with artist-inresidence Veronique Stefanica, a local visual artist.

Each class in the school had two sessions with Veronique with each student creating a clay reptile of choice, either a turtle, a snake or a lizard. This allowed students to learn about elements of design through sculpture but John Brummell/Metroland there was more to it than this. It was Jamie Reynolds holds a clay snake made for the a school-wide cross-curricular project Reptile Art Show at Richmond Public School in tying in science, language arts and visual arts.

Richmond on Wednesday, April 1.

Classroom teachers also worked with the students to create written materials related to reptiles. These written materials took many different forms, with each grade focussing on a different writing form such as shared writing, descriptive writing, procedural writing (how the clay reptile was made), or persuasive writing UÊ,iVi ÛiÊÞ ÕÀÊ Ü Ê (convincing parents why they should «>ÞÊV iµÕit be concerned about the rainforest). âià Ê*À UÊ7 Ê Ài>Ì In the school’s classrooms, teachUÊ" ViÊ>ÊÜii Ê ers explained to the students that `i ÛiÀÞ the goal of this whole project was to UÊ7ii i `ÃÊ"vv raise awareness of the rainforest, the reptiles that live in it, the endangered TRACI status that this habitat now faces and 23 .62 21 Stittsville CAMERON 613.2 what people can do to help the situ-

ation.

Classes were taught about reptiles, namely what they are, what their skin is like and what their various body parts are.

In addition, bulletin boards around the school took on this message of the need to protect and preserve the rainforest. This included both inclassroom bulletin boards as well as bulletin boards in the school lobby and throughout the school, such as on the wall in the corridor leading to the school library.

All of this project culminated in the Reptile Art Show on Wednesday, April 1 from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. at the school. The reptiles and writ-

ten work by the students were on display at this art show. Parents not only were able to see the created reptiles but parents could “purchase” their child’s reptile by making a donation, no matter how big or small, to “Unless” jars which students had created. These donation collection jars were called “Unless” jars in homage to the book “The Lorax” by Dr. Seuss which was published in 1971 and chronicles the plight of the environment and the Lorax who speaks for trees against the greedy Once-ler, a man representing industry and its threat to the environment.

Reptile Art Show featuring clay turtles, snakes and lizards Continued from page 41

In the book, the Lorax states: “Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot, nothing is going to get better – it’s not.” So, hence the creation of “Unless” jars as making a donation to them was a way of showing concern for the environment.

All proceeds raised from the donations to these “Unless” jars at the Reptile Art show are being split between the World Wildlife Fund for global environmental concerns and the Rideau Valley Conservation Authority for local environmental concerns.

A total of $846.53 was raised at the Reptile Art Show, not only from the “Unless” jars but also from additional tickets purchased by parents for a Truffula tree raffle at the art show.

As part of this whole project, members of the school’s Green Team, a group of students from grade four and five helping to lead environmental initiatives at the school under the guidance of teacher Jeananne Gilchrist, made colourful Tiffula trees. These Truffula trees are the kind of trees that are found in Dr. Seuss’ story “The Lorax.”

These Truffula trees proved to be so popular around the school that it was decided that a raffle would be held at the art show to give the trees away. Every person attending the art show was given a raffle tickets. But additional tickets could be purchased for 25 cents each or a donation. The proceeds generated by this raffle were added to the total art sale proceeds arising from the art show.

The Green Team members also were involved in this project by taking turns reading Rainforest Awareness

Quiz questions over the announcements at the school during the week of March 23.

A group of grade three, four and five students at the school presented a play to the rest of the school based on “The Great Kapok Tree,” a book written by Lynne Cherry about rainforest conservation. The play, just

like the book, was about the animals of a forest talking to a tree cutter in his sleep, telling him about the importance of the tree not only to them but to the world.

Richmond Public School grade one student Noah Nemchin not only made a clay turtle which he named “Dot” because of the dots which he

painted on it but he also created a box drawing urging the protection of the rainforest.

Noah is quite a fan of reptiles, as he has a turtle collection and also his own book about reptiles.

“I love reptiles,” he says.

Grade one student Petra McKim admits that she loves the Jock River,

pointing out that there are crayfish and frogs found in it. She warns that if people don’t take care of the Jock River, lots of the creatures that call it home will disappear.

Kindergarten students Lexie Maeck and Tommy Foster say that if some cuts down a tree, some new trees should be planted to replace it.

Rockets soar to win gold medals Special to the News

Sports - The Goulbourn Novice 2 Rockets soared at the recent Kanata Girls Hockey Association House League tournament.

Playing in their last game of the year, the Rockets captured the gold medal in the Novice 2 division final of the 32nd Kanata Girls Hockey Association House League tournament by defeating the Ottawa Ice Novice 3 team 1-0 in the Sunday, March 29 game.

But it was not an easy victory for the Rockets, as it took three periods of hockey, two overtime periods and then a shootout to determine the winner.

It was an exciting final game, with both teams getting chances to score. For the Rockets, goalie Shelbie Ryan-Edwards stopped everything that came her way.

When three periods of regulation time, a three minute sudden death overtime period of four-on-four hockey and a three minute sudden death period of three-on-three hockey were unable to produce a winner and champion, a shootout was required.

Shooting first for the Goulbourn Rockets in this shootout was Erica Burke-Terreau who just missed beating the Ottawa Ice goalie.

But Rocketsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; goalie Ryan-Edwards blocked the first Ottawa Ice shooter, so things were still even after the first shooters.

Madison McCoy put the Rockets fans in a frenzy as she converted on her shootout attempt

with a low hard shot to the far side corner of the Ottawa Ice net. After Rocketsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; goalie Ryan-Edwards had made another save on an Ice shooter, the focus shifted to Rockets defenseman Isabella Donaldson who had a chance to put the game away and earn the gold medals for her team if she could score on her attempt in the shootout.

Donaldson skated in, made a slight move left and then fired the puck to the back right to beat the Ottawa Ice goalie low to the glove side. A goal! The game was over and the Rockets were the winners and champions! The celebrations began!

The Goulbourn Rockets had advanced to the finals by beating the Gloucester-Cumberland Girls Hockey Ice Dogs 2-0 in semi-final play earlier in the day.

Isabella Donaldson had opened the scoring for the Rockets with just 30 seconds left in the first period, scoring on a breakaway. She used a little move to open up the goalie and then slid the puck through the five hole. Assisting on the play were Emree Tape and Allyssa Splinter.

Then, with two and a half minutes gone in the second period, Isabelle Janveaux of the Rockets scored on a play out of the right corner that was started by Madison McCoy and Sydney Shearlaw.

These two goals were all that the Rockets required as goalie Shelbie Ryan-Edwards went on to post a shutout, aided by the strong defensive

play of the whole Rockets team and anchored by sophomore rearguard Hannah Davidson.

Getting to play in this semi-final game was not an easy task for the Rockets.

While the Rockets won their first game of the tournament 3-0 over the Kanata Rangers Novice 4 team, the Rockets went on to lose 3-2 to the Cornwall Black Typhoons, letting a 2-0 lead float away.

Heading into their final round-robin game, the Goulbourn Rockets needed at least a tie against the Nepean Mighty Minions to advance to the semi-finals.

Trailing 1-0 in the second period against the Nepean Mighty Minions, the Rockets tied up the score with Erica Burke-Terreau burying a shot low to the glove side for a goal. She had taken a centering pass from teammate Isabelle Janveaux with Finlay Gauthier also assisting on the play.

With just one and a half minutes remaining in the game and the score tied 1-1, Rockets fans held their collective breath as a Nepean Might Minions player broke in all alone on the Rocketsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; net. But Rocketsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; goalie Shelbie RyanEdwards, just as she had done all season long, came to the rescue, calmly making a butterfly slide to prevent a goal. The game ended in a 1-1 tie, meaning that the Rockets were off to the semi-finals.

Prior to this season-ending tournament, the Goulbourn Rockets had enjoyed a successful 2014-15 season thanks to great team work and effort. The Rockets continued this recipe for success in the tournament with points earned by almost every player during the tournament and with every player contributing in some way.

In the win over the Kanata Rangers Novice 4 team in round robin play, Isabelle Janveaux had two goals and an assist while Emree Tape had a goal and an assist and Maggie Doherty earned two assists. In the 3-2 round robin loss to the Cornwall Black Typhoons, Maggie Doherty scored both goals while Emree Tape had two assists and Emerson LaVictoire added an

assist.

Not to be overlooked in the tournament was the stellar two-way play of Sarah Smith, a second year forward who led the Rockets in points going into the tournament. Sarah created many offensive chances in the tournament while stifling opponents with her persistent back checking.

Goulbourn Rocketsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; head coach Andrew Splinter and assistant coaches Lynda Partner, Paul Doherty and Owen Terreau are extremely proud of the team and its performance during the season and in this final tournament in Kanata.

The parents of the players are similarly proud of the Rockets success this season â&#x20AC;&#x201C; success that has been the result of both the individual growth and development of each player and the way that the players all gelled together as a team.

Memorable St. Patrick’s celebration thanks to the generosity of donors Special to the News

News - The recent St. Patrick’s Day celebration which the Richmond District Lions Club hosted in partnership with the Richmond Agricultural Society at the Dining Hall at the Richmond fairgrounds in Richmond proved to be a great success again this year.

This was not only because of the great music and entertainment, the good food including the Lions Club’s renowned bacon-on-a-bun and the fun and fellowship that arose from celebrating St. Patrick’s Day and all that is Irish (and who isn’t Irish on St. Patrick’s Day) but also because of the fireworks display which lit up the sky over the fairgrounds on that Saturday, March 14 night.

The Richmond District Lions Club is most thankful to all of the generous donors who contributed to help make these St. Patrick’s Day fireworks such a memorable spectacle.

News – The Rideau Valley Conservation Authority (RVCA) is planning a community tree planting on Saturday, May 16 along the shoreline of the new Jock River Fish Habitat Embayment Creation Project at the Richmond Conservation Area on Royal York Street. This project, undertaken last fall, saw the creation of 1,000 square metres of new spawning, nursery, rearing and feeding habitat on the Jock River at the Richmond Conservation Area. This project will support the 40-plus species of fish that live in the Jock River including muskellunge and northern pike. The newly created wetland area will also provide habitat to birds, amphibians and turtles and will increase the overall biodiversity of the river in this area. It will also improve shoreline stability and protect water quality. The RVCA partnered with the Ottawa Chapter of Muskies Canada, the National Defence Headquarters Fish and Game Club and the Ottawa Flyfishers Society on the project which received a national conservation award as the Top Canadian Fishing Industry Conservation Project for 2014.

‘Pies for Parkinson’s’ fundraiser at Stittsville Seniors Community Special to the News

News - It’s “Pies for Parkinson’s” and it’s a fundraiser to help the local chapters of the Parkinson’s Society.

The Stittsville Seniors Community by Revera (formerly the Stittsville Villa) on Stittsville Main Street in Stittsville is holding this pie sale on Friday, April 24 from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m.

And the goal for this fundraiser is to have 100 pies donated and sold. Now that’s a lot of pies!

These pies will not only raise lots of funds for the Parkinson’s Society but also will provide a great selection for those who drop in to the Stittsville Seniors Community for the pie sale.

And, indeed, those in the community are not only welcome to drop in on Friday, April 24 to purchase a pie or tarts but also are welcome to donate a pie for the event as well. All pie donations have to be delivered to the Stittsville Seniors Community on Stittsville Main Street on Thursday, April 23 between 8 a.m. and 8 p.m. or before 9 a.m. on Friday, April 24. Anyone wanting more information about donating a pie or pies to the fundraiser should phone 613-

720-4803.

This is the third annual pie sale held at the Stittsville Seniors Community, with the Parkinson’s Society selected as the recipient this year because Parkinson’s touches the lives of many of the residents at the Stittsville Seniors Community.

This year’s pie sale in fact is being held as a fundraiser in memory of Reno Casagrande, a Stittsville Seniors Community resident who battled Parkinson’s and who passed away last year.

Parkinson’s disease is a degenerative disorder of the central nervous system. Early in the course of the disease, symptoms are movement related including shaking, slowness of movement and difficulty with walking. Later, thinking and behavioral problems may arise, with dementia commonly occurring in the advanced stages of the disease. Depression is a common symptom.

Parkinson’s disease is more common in older people, with most cases occurring after the age of 50.

There is no specific known cause for most cases of Parkinson’s disease although a

small proportion of cases can be attributed to known genetic factors.

A person can live with Parkinson’s for years as symptoms can be treated with medication. Parkinson’s can progress at a different rate for different people.

The Parkinson Society Canada is the national voice of Canadians living with Parkinson’s. Through regional partners and 240 chapters and support groups, the organization provides educational workshops, conferences, seminars, printed resources and support services to those with Parkinson’s.

Parkinson Society Canada is also a major contributor to Parkinson’s research in Canada.

In 2012, for instance, Parkinson Society Canada invested $1.7 million to fund 33 innovative pilot projects, clinical fellowships and studentships for researches to ensure that Canada continues to have top scientists working on the study of Parkinson’s.

Since 1981, Parkinson Society Canada has invested more than $24 million to fund over 450 Canadian research initiatives.

Service of healing prayer and blessing coming up at Community Bible Church Special to the News

News - The Community Bible Church in Stittsville is holding a service of healing prayer and blessing on Tuesday, April 14.

Everyone in the community is welcome to attend this service which will begin at 7 p.m.

Those in the community with prayer needs or who wishes to support others in prayer are particularly urged to attend.

Community Bible Church pastor Steve Stewart will lead the service. Theme of the service will be “Hope in Dark Times” with talk on coping with depression. There will also be worship singing as well as a time of prayer and blessing.

The Community Bible Church is located at 1600 Stittsville Main Street right beside the Stittsville Post Office.

Every spring the SVA organizes an annual Artists and Authors in the Park event where dozens of artists and some writers display their work at Village Square Park, supplemented by other activities such as demonstrations and children and youth activities.

In July, the SVA organizes the community’s Canada Day celebrations which in recent years have been held on the grounds of Sacred Heart Catholic High School adjacent to the Trans Canada Trail which runs along the former railway line through the JOHN CURRY/METROLAND community.

tory, a point of pride for many who live in the area.

The Goulbourn Township Historical Society, which promotes and researches the area’s history, has posted signs on certain buildings in Stittsville, citing the historical significance of the structure. The Goulbourn Museum, located at the south end of Stittsville Main Street, is another repository of the community’s history.

Stittsville started out in the first half of the 19th century as Stitt’s Corners, a postal crossroads within the larger Goulbourn township. The crossroads took its name from Jackson Stitt, the first postmaster who was also quite an entrepreneur, running a store, hotel, tannery and blacksmith shop.

Despite all of its recent growth, many still refer to Stittsville as a village.

“We’re a village association,” says

Phil Sweetnam, immediate past president and now vice-president of the Stittsville Village Association (SVA).

“Every other town in Ottawa is a community association, but we’ve stuck with village. That’s what we are.”

And Adam Ghadban, a 22 year old Algonquin College student who has lived in Stittsville his whole life, would seem to agree with this assessment as he points out that in Stittsville, “Everybody knows everybody,” surely a sign of village life.

Keegan Killeen, another Algonquin College student who has lived in the Stittsville area for 16 years, sees both good and bad in Stittsville’s growth.

“I’ve seen a lot of businesses come and go as Stittsville has expanded over the years,” he says. “There’s not a whole lot in terms of entertainment here, but it is nice having everything

play. A multitude of businesses in the Stittsville area help sponsor the event.

The SVA also hosts Villagefest, a celebration of the coming of fall, in September, another event centered at Village Square Park.

And then the SVA wraps up its annual event schedule by organizing the community’s annual Christmas Parade of Lights which draws thousands of spectators as they view floats laden with Christmas lights make their way along Stittsville Main Street.

The Trans Canada Trail (TCT) running through Stittsville is one of the community’s main attractions as is Poole Creek, a waterway which flows through the community.

“I highly suggest everybody in Stittsville visit the TCT and Poole Creek,” says city of Ottawa Stittsville ward councillor Shad Qadri. “How many places in Ottawa can you stand in a forested area on a beautiful trail and at the same time look at the houses and businesses in the community?” he asks.

Councillor Qadri notes that Stittsville’s growth is bringing with it more affordable housing.

“For a long time, we didn’t have any housing that was cheap enough for people starting a family,” he says.

“People were growing up in Stittsville but being forced to move out of the area once they decided to leave their parents’ home. We want people to be able to raise their families here, so we’re trying to introduce more rental housing.”

Public transportation in Stittsville also needs improvement. Although only 25 minutes from the downtown core of ottawa by car, it takes over an hour by regular bus. The main route serving Stittsville is OC Transpo route 96 which follows a half-hourly schedule. There are also OC Transpo express routes in the morning and afternoon.

Concert to feature songs from movies, TV shows Special to the News

News - There are lots of memories for everyone from watching movies and TV shows over years past.

This spring concert has been named â&#x20AC;&#x153;Big Screen/Little Screenâ&#x20AC;? because there will be songs from both â&#x20AC;&#x153;big screenâ&#x20AC;? movies and â&#x20AC;&#x153;little screenâ&#x20AC;? television shows.

The concert will be performed twice, providing lots of opportunity for people to attend and enjoy this musical trip through the movies and TV shows of the past half century.

News - Proposed changes to two buildings previously approved but not yet built at the Stittsville Corners shopping area at the corner of Hazeldean Road and Carp Road in Stittsville would see one building expanded and become a two storey structure while the second building would be reduced in size and remain as a one storey building.

These proposed buildings are at the northeast end of the site, with exposure to Carp Road and Kittiwake Drive.

In addition to these building changes, the proposal includes an increase of 25 parking spaces in the adjoining parking lot.

The general location of the two buildings in question will not change from the existing

site plan approval but there are modifications proposed to the size and footprints of the buildings.

One building which has been approved as a one storey building with a gross floor area of 1500 square meters is being proposed to become a two storey building with a gross floor area of 2551.96 square metres.

These revisions are required to accommodate a proposed athletic facility as a tenant in the building.

The other building will remain as a one storey structure but its overall size is being proposed to be reduced from 739.5 square metres to 267.09 square metres. The final use of the building has not yet been determined but it could be a restaurant, a retail store or a bank.

Community blood donor clinic in Stittsville Special to the News

News â&#x20AC;&#x201C; A community blood donor clinics hosted by Canadian Blood Services will be held in Stittsville on Wednesday, April 22.

It will run from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. in the gymnasium at Holy Spirit Catholic School on Stittsville Main Street.

To book an appointment to give blood at this community blood donor clinics, please visit the website www.blood.ca or call 1-888-2DONATE (1-888-236-6283).

There is always a need for blood donations as it often requires numerous units of blood to help just one patient. Indeed, every minute of 54 Stittsville News - Thursday, April 9, 2015

These two proposed buildings are part of the Stittsville Corners (Stittsville Sobeys) shopping area which covers about 5.26 hectares at the northwest corner of Hazeldean Road and Carp Road in Stittsville.

The ultimate build out of the site, as currently approved, will consist of eight separate commercial buildings, six of which have already been constructed.

Any comments about these proposed changes to permit these changes to these two buildings should be forwarded to city of Ottawa planner Mike Schmidt at 613-5802424, ext. 13431 or by email at mike.schmidt@ottawa.ca .The deadline for the submission of comments is Thursday, April 23.

every day, someone in hospital in Canada is getting a blood transfusion.

Blood that is donated has a definite shelf life of five days for platelets and 42 days for red cells. It cannot be stored forever. A car accident victim, for example, can need up to 50 units of blood which means that 50 blood donations are needed just to help that one patient. Leukemia patients can need as many as eight units of blood a week as part of their treatment. Up to five donors are needed to provide the blood to help someone through heart surgery. Between two and eight donors are usually needed to help save someone with internal bleeding.

When your kids just “Gotta Dance”; look no further than the City of Ottawa Recreation eGuide available online at ottawa.ca. Our great variety of classes and activities will keep their toes tapping and their body rocking.

Dancing is great exercise for kids of all ages. Younger children will experience a fun introduction to physical fitness as well as developing many key skills that will serve them throughout life. They will learn to follow instructions, and create an appreciation for different styles of music while enhancing coordination, balance, flexibility, strength, stamina, discipline and memory.

Through programs such as Music and Movement and Creative Movement, toddlers as young as three years can explore their natural response to music and rhythm while expanding their creative scope and gaining confidence in their abilities. These programs provide a fun and casual approach to practicing basic and fine motor skills and learning about body awareness and space.

Classes in pre-ballet, jazz and hip hop will teach your tiny dancer the fundamentals and techniques of specific dance styles. It’s a great introduction to more formal and focused dance classes. A performance for an admiring audience of moms, dads and family members completes the session.

Older children also have a variety of dance styles to choose from. Whatever strikes their fancy we’ve got them covered - from Broadway, contemporary and hip hop. Our classes cover a gamut of styles made popular by television dance shows.

Do you have a child interested in learning a bit of everything? A Dance Mix and Gotta Dance class allows your child to create his or her own choreography and experiment with a variety performance styles.

Give your child the opportunity to express, move and create through dance. Our classes are affordable and many are conveniently located in your neighbourhood Apparently, Socrates learned to dance when he was 70 because he felt that an essential part of him had been neglected!

MARY COOK Mary Cook’s Memories Lifestyle - The snow was gone from our long lane, and it had settled into deep ruts of mud which wouldn’t completely dry up into the early summer.

Thick bush on either side of the lane stopped the sun, and it was one of the last places on the farm to give up the snows of winter.

Walking home from the Northcote School that time of year, we had to walk down the centre of the lane to miss the mud in the deep ruts.

That day I could smell a difference in the air.

Mud had a special smell to me, one I wasn’t particularly fond of. But I knew it was also the smell of spring, one of my favourite times of the year. And so, that day on the way home from school, I knew there would be other changes too around the farm.

Father would be pleased that the barnyard

Father’s love for the farm

had cleared of snow, and the cows could graze on dry land. He would never tolerate any of the farm animals wallowing around in mud, and often I saw him move them from one place to another just to keep them on drier land.

As I came out of the the lane, I could see patches of snow still here and there on the Twenty-Acre Field that separated our farm from the Thoms’s house. It would have to be completely dry before the planting.

I neared the swing gate and then I saw Father. He was leaning on the fence that circled the barnyard – most unusual for him at that time of day. He was wearing what we called his “between winter and summer” hat. It was more of a cap, with lugs that he didn’t bother to tuck up, but just let them dangle around his ears like flapping wings.

Father waved at me and I waved back and when I got within a few yards from him he told me to leave my school bag near the gate as he had something to show me in the barn. Goose eggs, maybe? Or a new litter of kittens that appeared as regular as clockwork? But no, Father wouldn’t be excited enough about either to meet me at the gate.

He took me by the hand, as if I didn’t know where the barn was. I felt the warmth and the roughness of a hand that had only known hard work and long hours, but I felt a comfort too.

He took me to the farthest end of the barn, past the stalls of where the cows were kept, and into the darkest crevices of the barn at the very south end, never letting go of my hand.

I could smell the fresh hay that had been mounded in the corner, thrown down from the hayloft above. Father said nothing, just leaned over the low stall boards, and let me adjust my eyes to the darkness, and then I saw what Father had taken me into the barn for.

“Would you look at that,” he said so softly I could barely make out what he was saying, and I could hear a wonder in his voice. And there in the corner of that small stall was one of our

ewes, and beside her two newly born lambs, their wool still damp from their birth. One was wobbling on legs that looked like little white sticks, and the other curled up beside its mother, two tiny bundles of white fluff.

We leaned into the stall for the longest time, saying nothing. The mother sheep was eyeing us, and the two little lambs, fresh from birth, trying to find their place in this new world they had been born into. I realized Father was still holding my hand.

We came out of the barn, and Father said, “Better go to the house. Mother will be looking for you.” I walked ever so slowly to the back door, thinking about what I had just seen, and even though I was very young, I knew again why my father so loved his farm. Why every inch, first settled three generations before him, would always be his haven.

I remember, as if it were yesterday, looking up to the sky that day and thanking whoever, or whatever was up there looking down at us, and saying my childish thanks for all that was around me.

The Depression, indeed, was in some other country.

Rhubarb cupcakes with strawberry Open Table community dinner cream cheese icing are a tasty treat Special to the News

Foodland Ontario

Special to the News

Lifestyle - Rhubarb and strawberry is a much-loved combination enjoyed in pies and preserves. The rhubarb is in the cupcake with strawberry jam in the icing to get that special taste in every bite. Preparation time: 25 minutes. Baking time: 20 to 22 minutes. Makes 12 cupcakes.

Ingredients * 250 ml (1 cup) all-purpose flour * 5 ml (1 tsp) baking powder * 1 ml (1/4 tsp) salt * 75 ml (1/3 cup) butter, at room temperature * 175 ml (3/4 cup) granulated sugar * 2 eggs * 2 ml (1/2 tsp) vanilla * 50 ml (1/4 cup) milk * 175 ml (3/4 cup) diced rhubarb Icing * 50 ml (1/4 cup) cream cheese, softened * 15 ml (1 tbsp) butter, at room temperature * 45 ml (3 tbsp) strawberry jam * 500 ml (2 cups) icing sugar, sifted * 10 ml (2 tsp) milk * strawberry jam (optional) Preparation

Line a muffin pan with paper liners and set it aside. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder and salt.

In a large bowl, using an electric mixer, beat the butter until itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s creamy. Gradually beat in the sugar until itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s well combined. Beat in the eggs, one at a time.

Add the vanilla and beat it until fluffy. Gradually beat in the flour mixture, alternating with milk, until itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just smooth. Stir in the rhubarb.

Using an ice cream scoop or large spoons, scoop the batter into the prepared muffin pan, filling each cup about 3/4 full.

Bake in a 180 C (350 F) oven for 20 to 22 minutes, or until a tester inserted in the centre comes out clean. Let it cool in the pan on a baking rack for five minutes, then remove the cupcakes onto the rack and let them cool completely.

For the icing, beat the cream cheese and butter with an electric mixer in a medium bowl until itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s smooth. Beat in the jam, then add the icing sugar and milk, and beat until itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s very smooth. Spread the icing over the cooled cupcakes (or use a piping bag).

If youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d like, drizzle a bit of strawberry jam (thinned with a bit of water), over the icing.

Store the cupcakes in an airtight container and refrigerate for up to three days.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not at the Lions Hall but rather at the Stittsville Legion Hall as the Legion is hosting Thursday evening euchres beginning this Thursday, April 9 at 7:30 p.m. Cost is $6 per person. There are cash prizes and a lunch will be provided.

Everyone is welcome.

Bill Watson, left, presents a gift of appreciation to Beth Lewis, centre, and Bob Lewis, right, from the players who participated in the series of Thursday night euchre parties at the Lions Hall in Stittsville from last January to Thursday, April 2. The euchres were hosted by the Stittsville District Lions Club.

‘Camp Awesome’ in August at Stittsville United Church Special to the News

News - Fun, faith and friendship are some of the things that youngsters will experience if they attend “Camp Awesome” at the Stittsville United Church this summer.

It will run from Monday, Aug. 10 to Friday, Aug. 14 at the church which is on Fernbank Road just west of Stittsville Main Street in Stittsville.

“Camp Awesome” is a Christian day camp for children aged 4 to 12 years, running from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. each day.

Morning and afternoon snacks are provided and the participants bring their own lunches.

At “Camp Awesome,” children learn about the bible through drama, songs, crafts, games and other fun activities.

Water day is always a highlight of the week with the children and their councillors all getting soaked – a great way to cool off in the summer sun.

Leadership for “Camp Awesome” is provided by a group of trained youth who lead similar

camps at about 20 United Churches throughout the Ottawa area in the summer.

The theme for “Camp Awesome” this year will be “The Fruit of the Spirit.” Following this theme, the participating children will learn about how God’s Spirit is at work in them, producing what the Apostle Paul has called the spiritual fruit of love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, gentleness, faithfulness and self-control.

The cost for “Camp Awesome” this summer will be $70 for one child, $125 for two children or $150 for a family of more than two children.

These costs will be increasing slightly after the early bird registration deadline of Sunday, May 31. Financial support is available upon request.

For more information or to register children for “Camp Awesome,” please visit the Stittsville United Church website at www.suchurch. com or call the church office at 613-836-8735.

Registration is limited, so an early sign up is recommended to ensure participation in this year’s “Camp Awesome.”

CUNNINGHAM, LON

Peacefully at Hospice Renfrew on Wednesday morning, April 1st, 2015. Roland Elmer Clark of Arnprior passed away following a valiant struggle with cancer at the age of 90 years.

Dear son of the late Leslie Clark and the late Lora Ethlyn Mills.

Husband for over 68 years of Lorna (nee Saunders). Dearly loved father of Donna Alfano (late Carmen) and Wendy Grose (Harold), both of Arnprior. Dear brother of Donna Smith (late Ron) of Lanark. Brother-in-law of Donetta Watson (late Ron) and Lois Russett (Blyth), both of Arnprior. Predeceased by his only grandson, Jason Grose as well as siblings: Douglas, Leland, Eleanor Kasycz, Lois Johnson and Joyce O’Brien. Roland was born in Sutton, Quebec and grew up in Lac Megantic. At the age of 15, he hopped on his bicycle and travelled to Montreal where he lied about his age and enlisted into the Armed Forces for the first time. Five months later, his Dad finally caught up with him and had Roland discharged. At the age of 17, Roland enlisted into the Royal Canadian Navy and trained on the HMCS Saguenay in Halifax and later became a coder. Roland received honourable discharge in September of 1945. After the war, the grocery business became a way of life for Roland and Arnprior would become home. A short stint at Cliff’s Radio Repair a well as a stop at the Cabinet Factory in Arnprior also contributed to Roland’s earnings. If you knew Roland, you also knew that golf was his greatest passion. An avid player and longtime member of both the Arnprior Gold Club as well as the Madawaska Golf Course, Roland was a multiple championship winner at both courses. A graveside service at the Malloch Road Cemetery, Arnprior will take place in the intimacy of Roland’s family early this summer. In memory of Roland, a donation to Hospice Renfrew or the Arnprior Humane Society would be much appreciated.

It is with much heartache that our family announces the passing of Helen on April 1, 2015.

Born in Peterborough, Ontario April 13, 1926.

She will be greatly missed by her daughters Elinor O’Connor, Barbara Eamer (Dawson), Valerie Whyte (Everett), grandchildren Mark (Ruth), Tammy, Shannon (John), Heather (Richard), great grandchildren Eric, Finlay, Teagan, Tate, Seamus, Marshall & Emmett.

Helen was predeceased by her bothers Jim, Jack and Fred.

Helen worked at Island Lodge in Ottawa as an R.N.A. for almost 25 years. There is nothing she wouldn’t do for family and was invaluable as a grandmother. Helen was an incredibly hard worker but also loved a rye, dancing, and of course a good game of euchre. We cannot thank enough the wonderful staff at the Almonte Country Haven for taking such fantastic care of Helen, and her family, throughout her stay there and especially at the end.

Friends may visit the family at the Alan R. Barker Funeral Home, 19 McArthur Avenue, Carleton Place, on Saturday April 11, 2015 from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m.

For those who wish, a donation to the Heart and Stroke Foundation would be appreciated by the family. www.barkerfh.com

classroom, students can connect in an authentic way to the natural world.

Not only does the Monarch Teacher Network educate about conservation but it is actively working to restore monarch habitat. Hence the emphasis in the presentation on butterfly gardens, particularly to help monarch butterflies. Monarch Teacher Network volunteers have installed monarch habitat in various places in Canada including in Ottawa.

It all began in New Jersey in 2001 when 18 teachers were trained at the very first “Teaching & Learning with Monarch Butterflies” workshop. In 2003, the movement expanded to Canada and the first workshop was held in Kingston.

In 2014, the Monarch Teacher Network in Canada hosted 11 workshops focused on teaching skills and concepts that inspire people to share what they have learned in schools and communities.

The monarch butterfly is considered in trouble today as its population continues to decrease. Its migration is considered to be endangered.

The monarch is probably the most familiar butterfly in North America with the orange and black pattern on its wings.

The eastern North American monarch population is notable for its annual southward late summer/autumn migration from parts of Canada and the United States to Mexico, covering thousands of miles, with a corresponding multi-generational return northward.

Habitat restoration is a primary goal in monarch conservation efforts.

Habitat requirements change during migration.

During the fall migration, butterflies must have access to nectar producing plants.

During the spring migration, butterflies must have access to larval food plants sand nectar plants.

Everyone is welcome to attend the April 21st meeting of the Stittsville Goulbourn Horticultural Society although there is a $4 charge for guests.

Memberships are available at $15 each or $25 for a family.

For more information, please email SGHorticultural@gmail.com .
