News - A wish has been granted thanks to funding from Tysen’s Mission To A Million.

This is the second wish granted

by Make-A-Wish Eastern Ontario in association with Tysen Lefebvre’s fundraising campaign for Make-A-Wish. Tysen’s goal is to raise one million dollars for Make-A-Wish Eastern Ontario which would allow for the granting of 100 wishes. A wish granted

by Make-A-Wish Eastern Ontario usually costs about $10,000.

On Wednesday, July 2, Tysen travelled to Perth to be on hand as a wish was granted by Make-AWish Eastern Ontario to five year old Avery.

Avery’s wish was to have a hot tub. He not only loves the water but the hot tub is also very therapeutic for Avery.

Tysen’s Mission To A Million campaign continues to roll along.

15 unique burgers at Main Street Cafe in Stittsville John Curry john.curry@metroland.com

JOHN CURRY/METROLAND

It is burgers like this that will now be featured at the Main Street Café on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays from 3 p.m. to 8 p.m. There is a special burger menu that will be used at these special times which features 15 different burger delights, all named after a neighbourhood in Stittsville. to $14. Remember, these prices cover a full platter!

But it’s the burgers themselves that you are want to make sure that you experience.

Indeed, Marc says that if you are a burger person, then you are going to love the burgers that he is offering.

And he’s kept it with a local flavour by naming each of the 15 different burgers after a neighbourhood in Stittsville.

So you have Old Stittsville, which naturally is a classic burger. The West Ridge is a classic cheeseburger.

Then there’s the Granite Ridge, a Portabello burger and listen to these additions – marinated portabello mushroom cap, caramelized onion, sautéed mushroom, mixed peppers, feta cheese and balsamic mayo. Or you could order the Bryanston, a bacon Brie burger adorned with bacon, Brie cheese and caramelized onion.

Then there’s the Crossing Bridge, a blue cheese burger with bacon, caramelized onion, BBQ sauce and blue cheese. There’s the Jackson Trails which Marc calls the ultimate cheeseburger as it’s a classic cheeseburger served between two grilled cheese sandwiches for the bun.

If you like it hot, you could try the Timbermere, a super hot burger with the beef patty cooked in Sriracha sauce and served with pepper rings, chipotle mayo and jalapeno Havarti cheese.

If you like bacon, as well as burgers, then the Wyldewood might be what you order. It is a bacon and beef patty served with peameal bacon, cheddar cheese, and bacon and onion jam.

And taking a page out of the Dagwood playbook and following in the footsteps of the Main Street Café’s B.E.L.T.C.H. sandwich, you could, if you are brave enough, try The Upcountry or the B.E.L. T.C.H. burger.

This is a beef burger with bacon, egg, lettuce, tomato, cheese and ham, along with Chipotie mayo. Even Dagwood Bumstead, known for his mammoth sandwiches, would be impressed with this burger offering!

News - He’s an admitted “foodie,” always thinking about food.

And now Marc Monette, owner of the Main Street Café at the Ultramar Plaza on Stittsville Main Street, has turned his attention to burgers.

He has come up with 15 different handcrafted burger platters which will be served exclusively at the Main Street Café on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays from 3 p.m. through to about 8 p.m. Up until now, the Main Street Café, which is renowned for its breakfasts and lunches, has been closing at 3 p.m.

Now, with this new burger menu, the Main Street Café will be open from 3 p.m. to 8 p.m. on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays, serving only from the burger menu during these hours. And it is only during these hours that the burger menu will be available – these special burgers will not served in the morning and early afternoon at the restaurant.

Marc believes that the burgers that he is now offering on these burger evenings at his restaurant will bring a new burger taste treat to Stittsville and area residents. He began these extended burger-only hours

on Thursday, July 3 and reports that business was brisk on both Thursday and Friday.

All of his unique burger platters are served with a choice of fries, house salad, sweet potato fries or onion rings.

All of the meat used in the burgers comes from the Butchery in Bells Corners where it is freshly ground daily.

All of the burgers come with lettuce, tomato, red onion, in-housemade coleslaw and a pickle slice.

The meat can be doubled for just two dollars extra.

Platters can be upgraded to include poutine for just two or three dollars extra, depending on the poutine selected. There’s a classic poutine with cheese curds and gravy. Then there’s a Newfie poutine with turkey dressing, cheese curds and gravy. And there’s also a bacon Brie poutine with Brie cheese, bacon and gravy.

There’s also a menu for kids, priced at only $4.95. There’s chicken fingers and fries, a hamburger with fries, a cheeseburger with fries, a hot dog with fries, a pogo with fries and a grilled cheese with fries, all served with a drink and dessert.

Marc has kept his burger prices reasonable as well, running from $8

World premiere at Gaia Java music evening john.curry@metroland.com

News - It was a world premiere – of sorts.

And this world premiere was but one of the musical highlights which the Colin Lloyd Trio, reduced by one due to a conflicting engagement, produced in its performance at the music evening at the Gaia Java Coffee Company shop in Stittsville last Friday.

This self-proclaimed world premiere involved the song “What Is This Thing Called Love?” which has been around since 1929 when American composer and songwriter Cole Porter wrote it for the musical “Wake Up and Dream.”

The song became popular with jazz musicians and has become a jazz standard over the years, recorded by a virtual who’s who of song such as Ella Fitzgerald, Sarah Vaughan, Frank Sinatra, Rosemary Clooney and Tony Bennett.

So, you wonder, just how could there be a world premiere of such a song, such a familiar tune. Well, Colin Lloyd, who plays the trombone, explained that the version played at the JOHN CURRY/METROLAND Gaia Java coffee shop last Friday was Trombonist Colin Lloyd, left, standing, and Deniz unique as he re-harmonized the tune, Lim-Sersan, right, sitting, on the keyboard, get ready meaning that no one else has ever to perform at the music evening at the Gaia Java played it the way that it was played by Coffee Company shop in Stittsville last Friday.

Colin and keyboard player Deniz Lim-

Burgers galore at Main Street Cafe Continued from page 2

If you are looking for something different, you could try the Deer Run burger which is also being called the “Dougall.” This is an elk burger – yes, that’s right, it features a elk patty with Provolone cheese, caramelized onions and port jelly mayo. The elk comes from a local provider, so you know it’s fresh.

Or if elk is not your thing, what about lamb?

Marc has come up with the Fairwinds, a Greek lamb burger served with crumbled feta cheese and tzatziki sauce.

Marc, though, has not forgotten those who prefer white meat burgers. The Amberwood is a grilled chicken breast garnished with roasted red pepper, lettuce, tomato, red onion, Swiss cheese and maple pepper mayo.

Or there’s the Frinedwood, which features a revved up premium breaded chicken breast and Frank’s hot sauce.

A third offering in this vein is the Westwind Farms burger which is a turkey burger topped

with homemade turkey dressing and cranberry mayo.

And if you are a smoked meat fan, Marc has not forgotten you in this new burger menu. He is offering the Forest Creek, a smoked meat offering with thinly sliced smoked meat, Swiss cheese and mustard.

All of these burgers are available for takeout as well on the Thursday, Friday and Saturday evenings.

Beverages available to go with these burgers include soda, coffee, tea, juice, white milk, chocolate milk and domestic beer.

Marc’s goal in developing this burger menu and in extending his hours to 8 p.m. on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays where this burger menu will be offered is to provide a unique local burger experience for Stittsville and area residents. The burger menu, available on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays between 3 p.m. and 8 p.m., can be found on the Main Street Café’s website at www.mainstreetcafe.ca.

Sersan. This qualified it as a world premiere, in his view.

But world premiere or not, the sounds of Colin’s trombone, accentuated with Deniz’s keyboard accompaniment and occasional flourishes, made this playing of “What Is This Thing Called Love?” a memorable experience for the audience.

The Colin Lloyd Trio was reduced to trombonist Colin Lloyd and Deniz Lim-Sersan on the keyboard as bass player Alex Bilodeau had a conflicting engagement which prevented his participation.

The performance began with a rendition of “Amazing Grace,” a Christian hymn written by

English poet John Newton in the late 18th century and which is now one of the most recognizable songs in the English speaking world. Colin said that “Amazing Grace” was performed in honour of the 4th of July on which Americans celebrate their independence and nationhood.

Much of the performance by the Colin Lloyd Trio minus one at the Gaia Java coffee shop featured original songs composed by Colin Lloyd, such as “Ballad,” named simply because it has a ballad-like quality to it, and another called “Bird and Cage” which Colin wrote a year ago although he is still making changes to it.

Tysen receives $10,000 at Escapade Music Festival Continued from page 1

SUBMITTED

Tysen Lefebvre, left, front of Stittsville visits the new hot tub which was the wish of five year old Avery, in the water, of Perth and which was granted by MakeA-Wish Eastern Ontario thanks to funds from “Tysen’s Mission To A Million” campaign whose goal is to raise a million dollars for Make-A-Wish Eastern Ontario.

This was the second wish granted thanks to “Tysen’s Mission To A Million.” Each wish granted by Make-AWish Eastern Ontario costs about $10,000.

On Sunday, June 29, Tysen was at the Escapade Music Festival at the Rideau Carleton Raceway in Ottawa where he received a donation of $10,000 for his Mission To A Million campaign.

And what a presentation it was!

Tysen was called up on stage with over 10,000 not only watching but cheering for him and chanting his name.

This was the fifth annual Escapade Music Festival which involves the electronic music scene. It features DJ’s and both local and international talent. It took place at the Rideau Carleton Raceway on the weekend of June 28/29.

Tysen Lefebvre, who is a student at Goulbourn Middle School, was born with a rare genetic disorder called Pfeiffer Syndrome and so far in his life, he has had over 26 surgeries, beginning when he was only nine days old.

Tysen himself was fortunate enough to have his wish granted by the Make A Wish Foundation as he got to fly to Los Angeles and meet Adam Sandler, his favourite actor. He was inspired by Adam’s generosity and decided that he too wanted to give back, just like Adam does.

This is how his Mission To A Million campaign started with the goal of raising one million dollars so that Make A Wish Foundation could grant 100 wishes.

SUBMITTED

A sea of people is in the background as Tysen Lefebvre, second from right, of Stittsville accepts a giant cheque representing a donation of $10,000 from the organizers of the recent Escape Music Festival at the Rideau Carleton Raceway in Ottawa to his Tysen’s Mission To A Million which has the goal of raising one million dollars for Make-A-Wish Eastern Ontario. The crowd of over 10,000 people cheered for Tysen and chanted his name as he went up on stage to accept the donation. With Tysen are Escape Music Festival organizers Ali Ahafaee and Maninder Virk along with Hot 89.9 DJ Kenny B as Hot 89.9 is involved in the sponsorship/ organizing of the event.

Ongoing music and more at Saunders Farm Continued from page 1

It is an electronic musical instrument controlled without physical contact by the performer, making it unique. It is named after its Russian inventor Leon Theremin who patented the device back in 1928. Two antennas protrude from the theremin, one controlling pitch and the other controlling volume. The pitch and volume are controlled as a hand approaches these antennas. The electric signals from the theremin are amplified and sent to a loudspeaker. The theremin has been used in movie soundtracks and in concert music as well as in popular music.

But there will be more than this ongoing music. There will be an instrument petting zoo as well as a food and music mash up. You could try the carrot kazoo or the radish recorder.

In addition, there will be games, fun activities and, of course, the renowned Saunders Farm mazes.

This “Kids Musical Adventure” at Saunders Farm this Sunday, July 13 is part of the Music & Beyond Festival which began in the Ottawa area last Saturday, July 5 and will be continuing through to Thursday, July 17.

The Music & Beyond Festival is a classical music and multi-disciplinary arts festival that was first presented in July 2010. It is now considered one of Canada’s major classical music festivals and one of North America’s most innovative arts festivals.

The festival pursues links with music and other art forms including visual art, drama, literature, poetry, dance, food and even yoga. It offers about 80 concerts and special events over its 12 day run, one of which is this “Kids Musical Adventure” at Saunders Farm.

Mark Saunders, “Director of Fun” at Saunders Farm, serves on the Board of Directors of the Music & Beyond Festival, currently serving as vice-president.

Notice of Proposed Official Plan and Zoning By-Law Amendments 2014 Zoning Review In accordance with the Planning Act and Section 5.2.3 of the Official Plan for the City of Ottawa, notice is hereby provided that Zoning By-law Amendment and Official Plan Amendment proposals have been initiated by the Planning and Growth Management Department of the City of Ottawa.

The following City wards are affected by the proposed amendments: Ward 1 Orleans, Ward 2 Innes, Ward 3 Barrhaven, Ward 4 Kanata North, Ward 7 Bay, Ward 8 College, Ward 9 Knoxdale-Merivale, Ward 10 Gloucester-Southgate, Ward 11 Beacon Hill-Cyrville, Ward 12 Rideau-Vanier, Ward 13 Rideau-Rockcliffe, Ward 14 Somerset, Ward 15 Kitchissippi, Ward 16 River, Ward 17 Capital, Ward 18 Alta Vista, Ward 22 Gloucester-South Nepean and Ward 23 Kanata South.

The purpose of the proposed Zoning By-law amendments is to implement policies in the Official Plan that specify minimum and maximum building heights, require minimum densities, create “active” street frontages and that permit a broad range of land use. The proposed amendments affect land designated in the Official Plan as Traditional Mainstreet (TM), Arterial Mainstreet (AM) and Mixed-Use Centre (MUC) / Town Centre (TC) and that are located within the 2014 Zoning Review Phase 2 boundaries which can be viewed at (ottawa.ca/zoningreview). The proposed amendment to implement density requirements affects the Central Area, all Mixed Use Centres / Town Centres and all Arterial Mainstreets save and except for the St. Joseph Boulevard AM and Robertson Road AM. The effects of the proposed Zoning By-law Amendments for the Traditional Mainstreet areas (File No. D0202-14-0062, D02-02-14-0064, D02-02-14-0065, D02-02-14-0067, D02-02-14-0068, D02-02-14-0070, D02-02-140074 and D02-02-14-0078) generally are to rezone select properties to broaden the mix of permitted land uses, permit building heights of up to six storeys and, for some locations, implement zoning standards that create “active street” frontages.

The effects of the proposed Zoning By-law Amendments for the Arterial Mainstreet areas (File No. D02-0214-0063, D02-02-14-0066, D02-02-14-0069, D02-02-14-0071, D02-02-14-0072, D02-02-14-0075, D02-02-140076, D02-02-14-0077 and D02-02-14-0079) generally are to rezone select properties to broaden the mix of permitted land uses, remove the requirement of a maximum Floor Space Index, permit buildings of up to nine storeys in height and, for some locations, establish new standards for automobile-related uses such as gas bars and automobile dealerships and implement zoning standards that create active street frontages.

The effects of the proposed Zoning By-law Amendments for the Mixed-Use Centre / Town Centre areas (File No. D02-02-14-0060, D02-02-14-0073 and D02-02-14-0061) generally are to rezone select properties to broaden the mix of permitted land uses, remove the requirement of a maximum Floor Space Index, permit up to 12 storey buildings and, for some locations, require a minimum building height of four storeys.

The further effect of all of the above-noted amendments is to foster these areas’ evolution into more pedestrian-, cyclist- and transit-friendly environments, as well as to ensure greater compatibility with abutting neighbourhoods and land uses.

Information Session

The effect of the Zoning-by-law Amendment with respect to minimum densities (File No. D02-02-14-0088) is to implement the minimum density requirements in Figure 2.3 of the Official Plan by establishing a Density Index, which involves the addition of two density calculation tables and a map to the zoning bylaw. This amendment is also subject to a proposed Official Plan Amendment (File No. D01-01-14-0017) to specify the circumstances under which a density ratio may be amended in the Zoning By-law.

Crownridge Park and Meadowbreeze Park Monahan Landing, Kanata Tuesday, July 15, 2014 6 to 8 p.m.

Meeting to be held in Meadowbreeze Park 98 Meadowbreeze Drive (weather permitting) Glenview Sales Office on Meadowbreeze Drive (rain location) The City of Ottawa wants to share information with you on two new parks — the new Crownridge Park and the addition to the existing Meadowbreeze Park. These parks are located in the Monahan Landing Community on Meadowbreeze Drive at the corner of Meadowbreeze Drive and Crownridge Drive.

By attending this Information Session, you will have the opportunity to see the design plans for the parks. Once completed, the Meadowbreeze Park addition will provide an intermediate level soccer field, parking, pathways, and landscaping.

In addition, new lighting and a storage bunker will be provided for the existing winter rink in Meadowbreeze. Crownridge Park will provide a double, lit tennis court, parking, a water play facility, fitness circuit, pathways, and landscaping.

Accessibility is an important consideration for the City of Ottawa. If you require special accommodation, please call Diane Emmerson no later than Friday, July 11.

Can’t attend the meeting?

The effects of the proposed Official Plan Amendments are to amend the Secondary Plans (SP) affecting portions of the Billings Bridge MUC, Main Street TM and Merivale Road AM (File No. D01-01-14-0012, D01-01-14-0013 and D01-01-14-0014) and generally include: for the Billings Bridge area an amendment to the Confederation Heights Secondary Plan to remove references to Floor Space Index as a zoning tool to regulate height; for the Old Ottawa East area an amendment to the Old Ottawa East Secondary Plan to remove the requirement of development triggered zoning bylaw amendments to obtain Traditional Mainstreet zoning; and for the Merivale Road Secondary Plan changes to ensure the Secondary Plan policies do not conflict with the Official Plan minimum density requirements in Section 2.2.2.5.

The land to which proposed Zoning By-law Amendment File Numbers D02-02-14-0061, D02-02-14-0067, D02-02-14-0069 and D02-02-14-0088 are subject to proposed Official Plan Amendment File Numbers D0101-14-0012, D01-01-14-0013, D01-01-14-0014 and D01-01-14-0017, respectively.

Where a proposed Zoning By-law amendment is reliant upon the policies introduced by Official Plan Amendment 150, it will not come into effect until such time as the applicable policies introduced by Official Plan Amendment 150 also come into effect.

To review additional information and materials related to the proposed amendments, please contact the undersigned planner, or go to Ottawa.ca/devapps and input the File Number in the “Search” criteria. Information about the 2014 Zoning Review and the proposed amendments can also be found at ottawa.ca/zoningreview. The City of Ottawa would like to receive comments regarding the proposed amendments. Please forward comments to the undersigned planner via mail, telephone, facsimile or e-mail by Friday, August 15, 2014.

If a person or public body does not make oral submissions at a public meeting (meeting date, time and location to be determined) or make written submissions to the City of Ottawa before the before the proposed official plan amendment is adopted and the proposed by-law is passed, the person or public body is not entitled to appeal the decision of the Council of the City of Ottawa to the Ontario Municipal Board.

If a person or public body does not make oral submissions at a public meeting (meeting date, time and location to be determined) or make written submissions to the City of Ottawa before the proposed official plan amendment is adopted and before the proposed by-law is passed, the person or public body may not be added as a party to the hearing of an appeal before the Ontario Municipal Board unless, in the opinion of the Board, there are reasonable grounds to do so.

SCHS drama club tours feeder schools Special to the News

News - South Carleton High School students used drama to deliver messages of social responsibility. Members of the school’s drama club toured three feeder schools to present dramatic sketches dealing with social responsibility issues such as bullying, cell phone use in cars and friendship. The sketches, performed

at A. Lorne Cassidy Elementary School and Goulbourn Middle School and Kars on the Rideau School, were entitled Bully Busters, Store Wars, Driving Lessons, School for Super Heroes, Social Responsibility Olympics, Code of Conduct and Alien Encounters. The sketches were performer by SCHS drama club students under the direction of teacher Jack Eyamie.

Members of the South Carleton High School drama club which toured three feeder schools to present a series of dramatic sketches about social responsibility are, front row, sitting, from left, Jessica Moberg, Melissa Dunn and Adam Alibhai; second row, standing, from left, Quentin Parsons, Liam Miller, Thomas Roller, Cole Rooney, Shannon Wilvers, Daniel Bode and Abby Green; and, back row, from left, Greg Chennette, Devery Turcotte, Sull Vandermark and Lucas Mulholland.

The trombone remains a relevant instrument in jazz music although not always a prominent one. And it’s not hard to see why it has remained a jazz favourite, as Colin Lloyd’s soulful sounds and varied pacing, from slow to peppy, showed just what a versatile instrument the trombone is for the world of jazz music.

Colin Lloyd has been a jazz enthusiast since grade ten. He has listened to jazz musicians from different eras and has developed a style that features a unique sound. Based in Montreal and Ottawa, he and his small ensembles like this Colin Lloyd Trio have performed in numerous venues.

Deniz-Lim Sersan, who joined Colin on

the keyboard for this appearance at the Gaia Java coffee shop, is based in Toronto. The bass player, Alex Bilodeau, who had to opt out of this Gaia Java performance, is an alumnus of McGill University in Montreal.

The Gaia Java Coffee Company shop at the Stittsville Shopping Centre (Shoppers Drug Mart plaza) on Stittsville Main Street in Stittsville holds a music evening every Friday starting at 7 p.m., with different performers each week. There is no admission charge to attend these Friday music evenings, although early arrival is recommended for the best seating.

This coming Friday, July 11, the music evening at the Gaia Java coffee shop will feature guitarist and vocalist Bryan Snider who will be performing songs from his new CD.

I would also like to thank all of the firefighters and volunteers who helped my staff and I for the set up, take down, and serving.

Another thank you to Scrumptious Catering for the breakfast, Sobeys Stittsville for the beautiful cakes, and Sister Cakes for baking the treats you all received as gifts.

Finally, a big thank you to Mayor Watson, MP O’Connor, Chief Horricks, Deputy Chief Kelly, Deputy Chief Pingitorie and John Robertson for taking time out of their busy days to attend the breakfast.

Waste Management zoning request approved with conditions at Agriculture and Rural Affairs Committee (ARAC) Last night, Waste Management came to the City’s ARAC Committee for a zoning request regarding the expansion of the Carp Road landfill. The zoning request was recommended by City staff and Committee members voted in favour of the request with conditions. The condition states that the holding zone will be held until the site plan is put forward and discussed by both Committee and Council. Therefore, the holding zone will not be lifted until Committee and Council have had an opportunity to discuss the six conditions put into a motion earlier this year.

I will provide another update once this goes to Council on Wednesday, July 9th.

I would like to thank the West End Coalition for all of their work and input on this file.

Trash woes get timely boost

T

he city’s plan to divert more waste from landfills received a welcome boost last month after it won a long-fought battle with Orgaworld, the company hired to process municipal organic waste.

Ever since the contract was negotiated in 2009, the issue over who is responsible for handling leaf and yard waste has been in dispute.

Orgaworld argued leaf and yard waste did not fall within the parameters of the contract, which was renegotiated in 2012.

An arbitrator dismissed the claim last month, ruling that the city was entitled to send all of its leaf and yard waste for processing even during peak seasons.

Orgaworld’s 10.2-hectare site on Hawthorne Road is approved to process a total of 1,200 tonnes of organic waste (residential, commercial, institutional or industrial) per day, or 150,000 tonnes per year.

Under the contract, the city is responsible for providing 80,000 tonnes of organic waste per year.

The amount of organics collected by the city jumped from 67,000 tonnes in 2012 to 83,000 tonnes in 2013. Good work Ottawa recyclers.

However, Orgaworld only accepted 69,000 tonnes, or 83 per cent of organic waste collected in 2013, leaving the municipality to find other ways to process the remainder.

In effect, the taxpayer was taking the hit, paying twice for the processing of leaf and yard waste.

The arbitrator’s decision translates into a big win for the city’s taxpayers, who will no longer be expected to foot the bill for the separate handling of leaf and yard waste.

It also provides a much-needed victory for the city in its goal to increase waste diversion, meaning less pressure on existing landfills and less need for new ones.

Keep in mind, the city only began collecting organic waste in 2010, and the arbitrator’s decision on the Orgaworld contract provides welcome encouragement for the city’s efforts to reduce its landfill footprint.

Queensway expansion continues unabated

T

his is the time of year when your thoughts may turn to driving out of town on vacation, to the centre of town to watch the Redblacks or they may be turning to wondering exactly where that downtown tunnel is right now.

Whichever direction you’re driving, there is always one question at the back of your mind: When are they going to get the Queensway finished?

It feels like it’s been years that there has been that 80 km/h limit from Kanata west. It’s seems like years since all that work started around the Vanier Parkway exit.

That’s because it has been years.

And now the work continues to the east, and you need a scorecard to know which on-ramps and off-ramps are closed on any given day.

CHARLES GORDON Funny Town Part of this is normal. Summer is construction season in the capital, and there is always something going on. We’re used to that. It’s part of the national fabric, although not mentioned on those Canada Day lists of 147 things we love about our country.

But all this Queensway stuff is puzzling. It’s been going on so long we’ve sort of forgotten what it’s about. In case you’ve forgotten, it’s about widening the road.

That means adding lanes. In the Vice President & Regional Publisher Mike Mount mmount@metroland.com 613-283-3182, ext. 104

west, there are going to be as many as eight in places. Other parts will go from four lanes to six. Someday, it will all be done, all the machinery will be gone, all the orange signs, and we will go back to normal.

Although normal won’t seem like normal, having lived the other way for so many years. But we are adaptable. Just try us.

The next question is whether our troubles will all be over when construction is completed on the Queensway and we have lots of new lanes. The answer is: probably not.

This prediction is in line with a theory you have probably encountered: that the traffic expands to fill the space allotted to it.

able for its completion.�

In the vehicular version, new drivers are attracted by the ease offered by the new lanes. Before long, more people are taking the Queensway than ever before.

Sometimes there is temporary relief. A few years ago there was a terrible bottleneck approaching Kanata where the 416 emptied into the westbound Queensway. Expansion fixed that up nicely, but clogging further along was bound to happen.

So now we’re getting more lanes.

Some experts of the defeatist stripe approach the problem by counselling that nothing be done: Let the situation worsen so much that eventually people are forced out of their cars and onto public transit.

But if you look hard enough, you can probably find virtues in the endless construction cycle.

For one thing, it creates jobs.

‘Horse Lovers Weekend’ at Westar Farms coming up Special to the News

News - The horses will be jumping at Westar Farms on Saturday, July 19 and Sunday, July 20.

Spectators are most welcome to attend this upcoming “Horse Lovers Weekend” horse at Westar Farms and watch the action in the various rings at the site.

Westar Farms, owned and operated by Jeff and Bridget McKessock, is a full service equestrian training and boarding facility serving the area.

It has not only a 70 foot by 160 foot indoor arena with an upstairs heated viewing lounge but also outside riding rings, show rings and trails. Hunters show in one of three grass show rings while jumpers perform in the grass jumper ring.

Last year Westar Farms marked its 25th anniversary year in operation.

The first horse show hosted by Westar Farms took place in 1988 at what was then Four Island Farms (now Castle Peak Farms) on Franktown Road west of Dwyer Hill Road. This was be-

cause Westar Farms was still under construction.

In 1995, a second horse show was added to the Westar Farms schedule and in 2002, a third show was added. The show grounds themselves at Westar Farms have developed over the years as well.

The shows happen around the farm’s long laneway, lined with maple trees planted the year after the farm opened for business. They were eight feet tall then but now many have reached more than 30 feet in height and provide welcome shade on hot show days.

In 2009, the main jumper ring at Westar Farms was expanded and new permanent competition and training obstacles were added. In recent years, “feature” classes not offered at other shows as well as extra prize money have attracted competitors to Westar Farms and its shows.

Westar Farms is located on Fernbank Road west of Stittsville. It is located on the south side of Fernbank Road between the Glen Mar Golf and Country Club and Dwyer Hill Road.

Stittsville garden on church’s garden tour John Curry john.curry@metroland.com

News - A garden in Stittsville was one of eight gardens on display in a garden tour held last Saturday under the auspices of St. Paul’s Anglican Church on Young Road in Kanata.

This garden tour and associated tea at the church celebrated the church’s 140 years of history and the tenth anniversary of its new church building. Sunny, warm weather prevailed on tour day last Saturday.

While seven of the gardens on the tour were located in Kanata including the gardens at St. Paul’s Anglican Church itself, the Stittsville garden on the tour was that of Gwen Gaebel on Beechfern Drive.

This Stittsville garden has a little bit of everything – and it’s all meticulously groomed.

Right behind the garage is a shaded flower garden, a feature which attracted the eye of many tour-goers. There are floral baskets, several hanging on a catalpa tree that had grown too large, shading too much, and so it was cut down – or almost cut down. A post-like remnant was left so that flowering baskets could be hung from it. And, indeed, the catalpa tree was not finished as it has now grown from the top of its tall stump, creating a much smaller version of

its previous self, with its giant leaves forming a canopy, albeit much smaller than previously, above the flower baskets hanging on it.

Nearby this catalpa tree is a water feature, a small pond surrounded by flowers and grasses with goldfish in it. Usually these goldfish survive the winter in this pond although that was not the case this past winter. Hence this year’s fish are new inhabitants of this aquatic home.

This garden also has a wooden arbour or archway which is a central feature of the area of flowers around the water feature.

This backyard paradise also has a rolling umbrella – an umbrella on a concrete foundation which has wheels under it, allowing it to be located wherever wished. This concrete foundation also allows for the placement of a number of flower baskets around it, adding to the floral beauty of the site.

A former rose garden in one corner of the backyard is now an oasis of hostas due to its transformation to a shaded area. And another corner of the backyard features a vegetable garden. It’s all here in this Beechfern Drive property. And those on the tour also had the benefit of chatting with Gwen Gaebel, asking her about the various flowers and features in the garden.

It all made for an enjoyable stop on this garden tour.

Canada Day activities wrap up with fireworks – look here!

There were some sparkling fireworks, some sizzling ones, some circular ones – all combining to make this fireworks display a most fitting climax to a day of Canada Day celebrations in Stittsville.

The seniors breakfast hosted by city of Ottawa Stittsville ward councillor Shad Qadri at the Stittsville fire hall on Stittsville Main Street had kicked off the day for some. But

John Curry john.curry@metroland.com

News - The sky over the Goulbourn Recreation Complex became a mural of colour, light and sound on Canada Day evening thanks to 16 spectacular minutes of fireworks.

Cascading showers of bursting fireworks – some red, some green, some white – painted the night sky, with loud bangs saying to one and all

it was the Canada Day activities and celebrations held at Sacred Heart High School beginning at 3 p.m. that really got the Canada Day mood going in Stittsville.

There was a petting zoo; the Stittsville Scouts offered games and activities; there was an inflatable obstacle course; Little Ray’s Reptiles were on hand to give a couple of shows featuring exotic reptiles; and there were two stages on which performers en-

tertained.

There were also displays set up from such groups at the Rotary Club of Ottawa – Stittsville and the Bank of Montreal.

There was plenty to eat on the grounds, with the Holy Spirit Knights of Columbus there with a BBQ, Gabriel’s Pizza and Jo Jo’s Pizza both there with pizza and Big D’s truck serving poutine.

This all happened with tempera-

tures in the 26 degree Celsius range, with sunny conditions. What a day!

When darkness was descending, glow sticks were handed out and the grounds became aglow with these glow sticks as the darkness grew, with the evening coming closer and closer to fireworks time.

Then, at 9:39 p.m., the fireworks began, a 16 minute show that sent everyone home feeling great and proud to be a Canadian living in Stittsville.

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

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

As CHEO marks its 40th anniversary this year, we look back and honour not only those in our community who made our local children’s hospital a reality, but also donors like Mr. Cochrane who made children a priority.

Little Ray’s Reptiles wows crowd at Canada Day celebrations John Curry john.curry@metroland.com

News - Little Ray’s Reptiles wowed the crowd at the Canada Day celebrations in Stittsville on Tuesday, July 1.

A sea of red (so many of those

watching, both young and older, were wearing red clothing of some sort) surrounded Natalie Mears of Little Ray’s Reptiles as she exhibited and told about a number of exotic animals during one of Little Ray’s Reptiles shows at the Canada Day activities.

Among the animals shown were a large turtle, a tarantula, a caiman which is a member of the crocodilian species from South America and a yellow and white albino python snake.

Members of the crowd were able to line up and in small groups touch

the python while Natalie held its head.

One unusual happening was that the tarantula chose the occasion as the time to start shedding. This is an usual process in which the tarantula lies on its back, totally defenseless.

When Natalie was showing the

tarantula to the crowd, she said that it looked like it would be shedding soon. Little did she know that a little later in the show, there is was in its container, starting the shedding process. Even Natalie herself took a photo of what was happening – it’s that unique.

Only 1400-plus days until 200th anniversary celebration John Curry john.curry@metroland.com

News - It’s just 1400-plus days and counting to the celebration of Richmond’s 200th anniversary.

This was a reminder voiced by Richmond resident Larry Monuk to members of the newly formed Richmond UniďŹ ed 2018 organizing committee at its inaugural meeting in the basement meeting room of the Richmond branch of the Ottawa Public Library on Thursday evening, July 3.

And these 1400-plus days will go quickly, Larry suggested, a sentiment reected later in the meeting by Judy Wagdin, the Richmond Village Association’s representative on the committee, when she observed that the days to the celebration in 2018 will go quickly and that there is a lot of work to be done over these 1400-plus days.

This initial meeting saw plenty of ideas tossed out and saw some of them embraced by one or more of the organizations represented on the committee, who will now start working on shaping these ideas for the 200th anniversary celebrations.

Judy Wagdin of the Richmond Village Association (RVA), for instance, is going to look

after trying to get a member of the Royal family to visit Richmond during the celebrations.

Brian Goss, the Richmond Legion’s representative on the committee, is basically going to investigate all military matters such as a performance by a military band or arranging for a display of vintage or modern military equipment.

Sarah Holla, representing the Goulbourn Museum at the meeting, took on activities regarding heritage crafts for children and the Goulbourn Museum and Goulbourn Township Historical Society will work together on developing an exhibit on Richmond’s history for display at the Richmond library.

And so it went at the meeting – the RVA will look after face painting, organizing meals at the various churches in the village and looking into other possible events like a magic show, a fashion show and a BBQ. The Goulbourn Township Historical Society may focus its Heritage Photo Contest in 2018 on scenes from Richmond. The Historical Society will organize walking tours which may also include wagon rides so that people do not have to walk the tour route. The Historical Society is going to look into the holding of genealogy workshops at the library, perhaps by utilizing a genealogy expert from the city of Ottawa. The

Richmond Agricultural Society and the Richmond District Lions Club may team up to look after any beer garden associated with the celebrations. The Richmond volunteer ďŹ reďŹ ghters will be approached regarding a ďŹ reworks display.

Other activities suggested that might be part of the 200th anniversary celebrations included a pancake breakfast, a concert, a 10K walk, an agility dog show, an old fashioned fun fair, a horse pull, a play about the history of Richmond performed by the South Carleton High School drama club, a pancake breakfast, an antiques fair, a parade, a dance, an ecumenical church service, an old fashioned picnic, a ďŹ ddling and stepdancing event, a logo contest and more.

It was explained that overtures have already been made to try to have performances by the RCMP Musical Ride and the OPP Golden Helmets motorcycle team. Both of these initiatives need further work done on them to conďŹ rm appearances.

A role is seen for the newly formed 100th Regiment of Foot reenactment group and the organization will be approached about being part of the organizing committee.

The dates of June 15-June 17, 2018 has been suggested as the time for these 200th anniver-

sary celebrations for Richmond.

The organizing committee will be seeking out grants and sponsorship funding once the celebrations have been more clearly deďŹ ned and outlined.

Those representing organizations at this July 3rd meeting included Judy Wagdin for the Richmond Village Association, Sarah Holla for the Goulbourn Museum, Dale Greene for the Richmond Agricultural Society, Barbara Bottriell for the Goulbourn Township Historical Society, Garry Guigue for the Kiwanis Club of Goulbourn and Brian Goss for the Richmond Legion.

There was no representative present for the Richmond District Lions Club, another of the organizations involved with this organizing committee.

The organizing committee set Thursday, Oct. 23 at the Goulbourn Museum as the date and site of its next meeting.

Richmond, founded in 1818 as a military settlement, will be marking its 200th anniversary in the year 2018. Celebrations of the community’s historical roots were held in 1968 (150th), in 1978 (160th) and in 1993 (175th) and these celebrations being planned for 2018 will carry on this tradition of celebrating milestone dates in the community’s history.

$10,300 raised for ‘Paws For Thought’

I just wanted to give a heads up to residents within the Glen in Richmond that the City of Ottawa Drinking Water Services will be performing a routine cleaning of watermains starting Tuesday, July 15th until Friday, July 18th. To minimize inconvenience to residents, watermain swabbing will be limited to the daytime hours between 8:30AM and 6PM. Residents of Kings Park in Richmond may experience intermittent water outages, higher or lower than usual water pressure and a change of water colour during swabbing operations.

John Curry john.curry@metroland.com

The Kings Park well system serves those residents on Dallaire Crescent, Chanonhouse Drive, Ormsby Drive, Temple Street and Mac Storey Street.

Residents along King Street that are served by the communal well system will also be impacted. Notices will be delivered door-to-door at least 24 hours prior to watermain swabbing in each neighbourhood. Residents must follow the directions provided in the notice to avoid damage to household plumbing and laundry.

Please let me know if you have any questions about this upcoming maintenance.

News - Stittsville became a motorcycle mecca last Saturday.

This was because “Rally Fur Paws,” the Stittsville Legion’s inaugural motorcycle rally to support the provision of service dogs for veterans took place.

And what a day! When it was all said and done, over $10,300 was raised for “Paws Fur Thought,” an organization dedicated to raise public awareness and funds to help veterans impacted by their service by providing service dogs for them.

The Stittsville Legion was the start and finish point for this 200 kilometer rally which saw the participants visit four Legions along the route, with games and sports contests being offered at each stop to provide a little break to the rally participants.

These other Legion branches were in Carleton Place, West Carleton (Constance Bay), Manotick and Kanata.

Councillor for Hire On the Fourth of July, while many of our neighbours to the south were celebrating, I was spending the afternoon at the all new Natural Fresh Bakery in Manotick for the July edition of Councillor for Hire.

While this new bakery only opened recently, the owner of this establishment, Toni Nuhijaj along with his two brothers have been involved in the industry since his childhood in Kosovo, in former Yugoslavia, at the family bakery. Toni and his brothers came to Canada In 1999. In 2010, with his brothers as partners, Toni opened Natural Fresh Bakery in the east end of Ottawa. They serve as wholesales to various restaurants in and around the Ottawa area.

Aside from bagging baked goods and handling cash, I didn’t work too hard in this Councillor for Hire experience. However, it was a great opportunity to speak with patrons and hear their feelings about what small business means to this community. If you have never been to the Natural Fresh Bakery, I’d encourage you to pay a visit and discover this hidden gem on Ann Street. My next Councillor for Hire experience is scheduled for Tranquil Acres in August.

Lunch was provided at the West Carleton legion while cake and ice cream was available at the Kanata Legion.

The marshal for the rally was Jody Mitic, a double amputee veteran who still rides his own motorcycle and who gained fame as a participant on the Amazing Race Canada TV show.

The rally began at the Stittsville Legion at 10 a.m., with participants heading off on their motorcycles in groups. Before leaving the village, they all drove around by the Johnny Leroux Stittsville Community Arena where they paid tribute at the Stittsville cenotaph before returning past the Stittsville Legion Hall as they headed out of the village.

As the rally participants returned to the Stittsville Legion around 3 p.m., the Afghanistan Poppy Memorial was set up at the front of the Legion parking lot to welcome them back, complete with a four-member military guard.

Motorcycle rally starts and finishes in Stittsville Continued from page 24

Motorcycles were lined up in the Legion Hall parking lot as well as at the front of the nearby Bradley’s Insurance office. Indeed, organizers were hoping for at least 85 participants and initial counts put the total number of rally participants at close to 100. A number of motorcycle groups with military connections such as The Defenders and the Veteran Paratroopers were represented at the rally. The Defenders started as a service group at CFB Borden in

1984 and currently has eight chapters including one in the Ottawa area.

A number of service dogs were at the event which took place in sunny warm weather with blue skies overhead.

One of the service dogs on hand was Bauer who is the in-training service dog for Canadian Forces veteran Shawna Roy. Shawna, who was injured while training for a posting in Afghanistan, needs a service dog to help her with the anxiety from which she suffers as a result of her military service. The

service dog is training to create a buffer space around Shawna in situations where she could suffer from anxiety.

She says that having a service dog to help her battle her anxiety has made a big difference in her life.

As Shawna’s situation shows, a service dog can be trained to help in various situations. Service dogs can be for vision impairment but they can also be for a number of other military-based afflictions which can be helped with the presence of a service dog in the life of the veteran.

A special guest at the Stittsville Legion in the afternoon was Richard Leger of Stittsville, father of Sgt. Marc Leger who was one of the Canadians to die in Afghanistan. Marc’s name is engraved on the Afghanistan Poppy Memorial which was on display at the Stittsville Legion last Saturday.

This Memorial was constructed from pieces of a Badger army tank that ran over an improvised explosive device in July 2008 in Afghanistan and subsequently burned for 12

hours. Poppies taken from the last Remembrance ceremony in Kandahar in 2011 have been placed on the memorial. Each poppy represents a Canadian serviceman or woman who died in Afghanistan.

It was at the last Canadian Remembrance Day ceremony held at the Kandahar Air Field in Afghanistan on Nov. 11, 2011 that these poppies were placed on plaques by Lieutenant-General Jonathan Vance, with the then-Minister of National Defence the Hon. Peter MacKay reading off the names of the fallen who were being honoured with a plaque and poppy.

The next day, this Kandahar Air Field monument began to be dismantled for its return to Canada. At that time, Lt. Gen. Vance removed all of the poppies from the monument and gave them into the care of Warrant Officer Renay Groves.

It was Warrant Officer Renay Groves from 21 Electronic Warfare Regiment at Canadian Forces Base Kingston who was the one who put together a team to create this Af-

ghanistan Poppy Memorial. Warrant Officer Groves was one of the military contingent which was with the Memorial at the Stittsville Legion last Saturday.

The Memorial is topped by a maple leaf carved out of the back deck of the destroyed tank, with the face of the maple leaf still showing the damage from the explosion.

The maple leaf sits on a wheel support and an engine hatch which has one handle still wrecked from the blast. A brass 105mm shell casing bears the names of the 161 Canadian soldiers who died in Afghanistan.

The poppies from Kandahar, now bronzed, circle the memorial.

The whole memorial rests on a tank wheel.

The Memorial is circular to represent how Canadian soldiers surround their nation to protect it.

The poppies have been placed at random on the Memorial to represent the randomness of the deaths and the entire monument rotates so that no part of it is more prominent than any other.

News - Two Stittsville restaurants partnered last Saturday to provide an eight-course meal at a wedding reception.

NeXT Restaurant at the corner of Hazeldean Road and West Ridge Drive was the site of the reception.

For this Asian wedding reception, a meal featuring a mix of “East meets West” dishes was desired and so NeXT Restaurant executive chef Michael Blackie partnered with chef Tony Chen of the Kungfu Bistro at the nearby Stittsville Corners shopping area at the corner of Hazeldean Road and Carp Road to prepare an eightcourse meal with appropriate dishes.

They had partnered like this once before when Michael Blackie was at the National Arts Centre but this was the first time that this had happened

in Stittsville. It is expected that there may be more such collaborations as both chefs have the same approach to providing delicious cuisine.

For this wedding reception last Saturday evening at NeXT Restaurant which involved 145 guests, chef Tony Chen of Kungfu Bistro prepared Crispy Chicken with bone-in with Shrimp Chips, Fish Maw Soup, Jasmine Fried Rice with Shrimp, Ham and Egg, and E-Fu Noodles which are noodles that are traditionally served at Chinese weddings.

NeXT Restaurant executive chef Michael Blackie prepared an Indonesian-style Shrimp and Crab Claw, Scallops and Shrimp with Shanghai Bok Choy, Lobster in Supreme Brown Sauce, and Miso-glazed Black Cod. Chef Tony Chen prepared his dishes at the Kungfu Bistro kitchen and then transported them to the nearby NeXT Restaurant.

JOHN BRUMMELL/METROLAND

The Stittsville fire hall on Stittsville Main Street is a sea of red and white for the annual Canada Day Seniors Breakfast hosted by city of Ottawa Stittsville ward councillor on Canada Day, Tuesday, July 1st.

Special to the News

News - A one storey commercial building at 5977 Hazeldean Road was the focus for city of Ottawa emergency response personnel on Wednesday, July 2.

The building is located on the north side of Hazeldean Road between Hartin Street and the Rona Building Supplies outlet.

At one time the building was home to Mason Windows and then to Love Printing. It now houses several commercial operations.

Ottawa Fire Service and Ottawa Paramedic Service personnel rushed to the scene at about 12:05 p.m. after receiving reports of a partial roof collapse, with initial reports indicating that one person was not accounted for.

Specialty teams trained in building collapses and heavy rescue teams were dispatched to the scene.

On arrival, Ottawa Fire Services

crews confirmed that all personnel at the scene had been evacuated and that there was no one trapped in the building.

It turned out that a support column had been struck by a forklift, causing structure damage to a small section of the roof.

Firefighters cordoned off an area around the collapsed portion of the roof and eliminated potential hazards, including shutting off the gas service to the building.

The forklift operator, a 41 year old male, sustained a minor shoulder injury when the incident occurred. He was assessed and treated on site by the Ottawa Paramedic Service.

The Ottawa Police Service and the Ontario Ministry of Labour are investigating this workplace incident.

The management of the building called in a building engineer to assess the damage while the area in question remained cordoned off to workers.

People’s Choice John Curry

‘On the Water’ art exhibition John Curry

john.curry@metroland.com

News - “And the winner is…”

The results are in for the People’s Choice balloting for the “Budding Life” exhibition which wrapped up at the Ottawa West Arts Association (owaa) gallery at the Goulbourn Recreation Complex (GRC) in Stittsville last Friday, July 4.

Heading the balloting and taking first place in this People’s Choice voting for favourite work in the exhibition was Sonia Tavares’ acrylic “Go With The Wind.”

This painting featured an intricate arrangement of swirls, circles and more, featuring yellows, reds and blacks, giving the image of wind. Evidence of the wind is shown with the dresses of women cascading and ballooning in one area of the painting.

Second place in the People’s Choice balloting for this “Budding Life” exhibition was Stephen Harrison’s photograph on dye-infused aluminum called “Fall Chickadee.” The photograph was a close up of a chickadee sitting on a branch.

Third place in the People’s Choice balloting went to Michael Goguen for his inventive oil painting called “The Great Gates of Kiev.” This large painting featured a floating castle, an airship, a moon and planets and a gated city with domed buildings.

While not winning in the People’s Choice balloting, artist Roseanne Facchin experienced the highest complement that an artist can receive with her painting of “Egret” in this exhibition. The painting was sold!

The painting, an acrylic, featured a big white, long legged heron.

Those who view exhibitions at the owaa gallery at the GRC are urged to fill out a ballot in the People’s Choice voting which takes place for each exhibition. Just fill out a ballot indicating which piece of art is your favourite in the exhibition and drop the ballot into the ballot box on the display case at the gallery. Ballots can be found at this box. The artists really enjoy learning the results after each exhibition. The results provide them with much appreciated input and feedback, particularly from those who put a brief comment on the ballot about what appealed to them in the work.

News - “On the Water” is its title and it sure lives up to its name.

Virtually every piece of art on display in this new exhibition at the Ottawa West Arts Association (owaa) gallery at the Goulbourn Recreation Complex (GRC) on Shea Road in Stittsville has an association with water. It was obviously a theme that the artists embraced with their work.

There is Stephen Harrison’s photograph of a black swan in water which he has named, quite simply, “Black Swan.” This species of swan, with its black plumage and distinctive red beak which is quite noticeable in the photo, is naturally found in Australia. As is customary with Stephen Harrison’s work, this photograph was reproduced on dye-infused aluminum for this exhibition, giving it a clarity and sharpness that even Mother Nature is challenged to replicate.

But this was not the only wildlife on water in the exhibition.

There is Salena Richard’s pencil drawing of a young duck stretching up as it zeroes in on a fly. Hence the name “Catching Flies on the Water.”

Beverly Lafortune’s photograph “Majestic Flight” has caught a giant bird taking off from water.

More serene but just as eye-catching is Roseanne Facchin’s acrylic “Drifting By” showing an up-close Canada goose on the water.

Alain Bernard’s oil painting “Le caplan roulaient,” found in the larger glass display case at the owaa gallery, shows three people walking along a beach with a flock of white sea gulls taking to the air before them, spooked by the advancing trio.

But wildlife and water is not the only combination in this exhibition. What about man himself?

John Edkins’ photograph “Sub Aqua” has captured a man’s head emerging from the water with a halo of water droplets cascading over his head. One of the man’s eyes is closed as he apparently emerges from his underwater experience.

Another John Edkins photograph, this one found in one of the two vertical glass display cases at the owaa gallery, named “Early Riser,” portrays a man standing on the shore of a calm lake, with a boat nearby, as the early drawn breaks in the distance across the lake.

And what about man-made objects on the water, namely ships and boats?

There’s plenty of these in the exhibition such as Gordon Chapman’s black and white photograph called “On Deck” of an area of

Stephen Harrison, a photographer who is a member of the Ottawa West Arts Association (owaa), uses a ladder as he hangs the acrylic painting of a Canada goose called “Drifting By” by Roseanne Facchin as the new exhibition “On the Water” at the owaa gallery at the Goulbourn Recreation Complex was set up last Saturday morning. a ship’s deck showing a lifeboat, portholes and flaking paint.

Another similar Gordon Chapman black and white photograph, entitled “At Sea,” much smaller and located in one of the vertical glass display cases at the owaa gallery, included a lifeboat with the name “Ernest Lapointe” on it.

Gerald Smith’s oil on canvas entitled “The Bluenose Racing” has two schooners, obviously one being the Bluenose, racing over the ocean, with a blue sky overhead.

A ship is prominent in Mark Grasza’s oil painting “Aeroplanes in Action” which shows a ship at sea being overflown by two British planes. A more sedate scene is found in Sheila Turner-Whalen’s acrylic “Resting”

showing a couple of pleasure sailboats at a watery mooring. Idyllic as you can get!

Sailboats are also part of Josef Pittner’s photograph called “Early Morning Calmness” which shows sailboats moored in a setting of early morning mist.

While not on the water, a couple of boats pulled up on a beach in Inge Whalen’s acrylic “Portugal Beach” with red-roofed houses in the background and a portion of ocean showing, with blue sky and white clouds overhead kept the spirit of the exhibition’s theme of “On the Water.”

And the exhibition features other works that feature water.

New exhibition at owaa gallery at GRC Trudy Daley’s oil painting “Storm over the Gatineau” shows a very calm river in the foreground, with a riverbank lined with houses on the far shoreline.

Alena Liapko’s watercolour and oil pastel “Water Garden (Lotuses)” is a mass of green, with some flowers in bloom.

Louise Barker’s oil painting “Quiet Waters” shows rocks in a shallow area of water. There’s also water in Elizabeth (Betty) Sullivan’s acrylic “The Sentinel,” showing a solitary tree on a point of land, reminiscent somewhat of the famous Tom Thomson painting “The Jack Pine.”

Stittsville photographer Sylvie Sabourin has rows of trees flanking a watercourse in her photograph “French Canal II.” Beverly Lafortune’s photograph “Mirror Image” has three leafless trees reflected in water in the foreground.

And Aud Karin Sund’s small oil painting “Anemones a l’ancienne” shows a number of blooms, some of them red, in a vase which presumably is filled with water.

Water is also featured in a number of other pieces in this exhibition.

Aud Karin Sund’s oil painting “High Tide,” with is horizontal focus, depicts watery blue waves.

Kat McClure’s mixed media creation “Maui Waves” shows white foaming waves with dark

blue above and blue/green water receiving the waves.

Vera Van Baaren’s watercolour “Wave,” much wider than it is tall, depicts a wave as seen from the side as it rolls shoreward.

“New Dawn,” an acrylic by Soraya Silvestri “Zizi,” portrays a waterfall cascading downwards, disappearing into a patch of red at the bottom of the vertically oriented piece.

So, water, water, everywhere in much of this exhibit. But there are still several works that have other attractions.

Sonia Tavares’ acrylic “Interlaced 2” is not only a large painting featuring many colours – orange, purple, green, yellow, grey – but also has numerous interwoven shapes like circles, ribbon-like strands and a rope-like feature.

Artist Michael Goguen always has a unique piece in these exhibitions and this exhibition is no different. His oil painting “The Gnome” shows a gnome-like character cooking hot dogs on an open fire, with a castle-like building in the background and very much a castle in the far distance.

Two other small paintings found in one of the vertical glass display cases at the owaa gallery are “Cherries,” an oil painting by Elizabeth (Betty) Sullivan and “There’s a Crowd,” an oil painting by Louise Barker which shows three purple blooms.

This exhibition “On the Water” will be on display at the owaa gallery at the GRC on Shea

34 Stittsville News - Thursday, July 10, 2014

RBQ : 8007-6490-04

News - Shakespeare came to Stittsville last Saturday.

Well, not the 16th/17th century bard himself but his romantic comedy “As You Like It” which was presented under the tall pines at Alexander Grove at 7 p.m., an idyllic evening with sloping sunshine, a blue cloud-speckled sky overhead and a gentle breeze serving as Mother Nature’s air conditioner.

A Company of Fools, Ottawa’s long running professional Shakespeare company, presented “As You Like It” at Alexander Grove as one stop on its summer-long Torchlight Shakespeare Tour which will see this Shakespearean comedy performed in public parks across the city. And while the stage, backdrop, costumes and performances all reflect the professionalism of this Shakespearean company, it is the actors’ impromptu remarks and actions, their awareness of the present while performing a 400 year old play that really elevates the presentation and creates a bond with the audience.

The crowd of about 200, almost all having brought their own chairs, collectively laughed when Charles the wrestler, just before his match with Orlando, made a reference to today’s Justin Bieber, Canada’s youthful singing sensation and teen heartthrob.

This was not a line written by Shakespeare, you can be sure!

And the same occurred and even was acknowledged as a post-Shakespeare addition when the troupe needed a little time for a quick costume change. And since A Company of Fools keeps the action and words flowing constantly, in this case for 90 minutes, this costume change interlude featured an actor jumping on stage, addressing the audience and even mentioning Stittsville (Shakespeare, we are sure, had no inkling of Stittsville whose founding was still more than two centuries after this play was written). “Thou Hast Not Loved,” the actor intoned, acknowledging that this was a

phrase not written by Shakespeare for “As You Like It” but he had to fill in some time to allow for the costume change and this was the words used.

And like the Justin Bieber reference, another tip of the hat to the modern was made when a love-struck Orlando enters the performance area singing “I Could Have Danced All Night,” a song from the 1956 Broadway musical “My Fair Lady.” Orlando was Shakespeare’s Eliza Doolittle with this modern reference.

But surely it is these occasional modern references and other impromptu acting that makes A Company of Fools production so entertaining, whether it be a fleeting reference to the “poop and scoop” practices of today or when a hungry Orlando rhetorically asks the audience if anyone brought along a snack and then gets a tidbit from one audience member.

Two of the most memorable scenes in this presentation of “As Your Like It” were the wrestling match between Orlando and Charles the wrestler and also the deer hunting scene in the Forest of Arden.

Many blows were tossed in this wrestling match between the champion wrestler Charles and the innocent Orlando but none landed – it was like television wrestling – all show and no blow. But like wrestling on TV, it was entertaining and the audience clapped its approval when Orlando emerged, somehow, as the victor. In so doing, he won the affections of Rosalind.

And who could not love the impromptu acting that happened in the deer hunting scene in the Forest of Arden.

A hunter, seeking to kill a “Bambi” (apologies to Walt Disney and his 1942 animated film which made Bambi a household name for a deer – undoubtedly Shakespeare would have used this term had it been around 350 years earlier when “As Your Like It” was written).

When his bow failed to shoot the arrow, presumably meant to fly over the forest backdrop, the hunter tossed it over by hand. And then from

behind the backdrop emerges another holding a dead deer with an arrow protruding from it. It proved to be quite an arrow toss and the whole episode brought some smiles and chuckles to the audience.

It was these moments when the modern was intertwined with the Shakespearean or when the impromptu took over from the scripted that added a unique spark and appeal to this production by A Company of Fools.

And just what was the story portrayed in this Shakespearean comedy which William Shakespeare is believed to have written in 1599 or early 1600?

Well, Duke Frederick seizes the throne of his brother Duke Senior who was banished to the Forest of Arden, leaving his daughter Rosalind behind at the court. Rosalind becomes romantically attracted to Orlando due to the afore-mentioned wrestling match, after which Orlando is forced to flee to the Forest of Arden with his servant Adam. Rosalind is also banished to the Forest of Arden where she goes, accompanied by her best friend Celia and the clown Touchstone.

Rosalind disguises herself as a boy named Ganymede.

In the Forest of Arden, Orlando pines for Rosalind, carving her name in trees and leaving love poems scattered in the forest. Rosalind finds his poems and decides to seek Orlando out and, as Ganymede, find out about his feelings for her. But complications set in when a young woman falls for Rosalind as Ganymede. There are more romantic involvements but in the end love conquers all.

For this production of “As You Like It,” which was directed by Scott Florence, five actors assumed all of the roles, 15 in total. Catriona Leger was Phebe, Touchstone and Oliver while Matthew J. Lundvall was Orlando, Corin and Amiens.

Kate McArthur was Celia, Audrey and Duke Senior while Geoff McBride was Jaques, Silvius, Duke Frederick and Charles. Katie Ryerson was Rosalind and Adam.

Grade six leaving ceremony at St. Philip in Richmond Special to the News

News - The Class of 2014 were honoured at the grade six leaving ceremony at St. Philip Catholic School.

The 35 members of the class all received school leaving certificates. In addition, a number of awards and special acknowledgements were presented.

The June 20 ceremony all began with the grade six students marching into the audience-filled gymnasium two-by-two, each carrying a lantern with a flickering light, while the song “Go Light Your World” played.

The students placed these lanterns across the front of the gymnasium’s stage, there to be a presence throughout the ceremony.

Introductory remarks by students Alec Hunt, Chloe Adams and Sarah Doiron read as follows: “We celebrate the successes and friendships that have been nurtured this past year and look forward to beginning a new part of our journey in Catholic education. We close a chapter of our school

years at St. Philip and we look to new experiences in our new schools next year. We leave with precious memories, with present friends and with future dreams.”

Following a liturgy which included an opening prayer

by William LaFleche and Jayme Burell, readings by Olivia Belli, Nicholas McGuire, Paige Hill and Julia Robertson and petitions by Abigail Hall, Reanne Richards, Massimo Buffone, Payton Tasse, Molly McNeely, Brayden Lewis, Madison Houston, Damien Simmonds and Zachary Wallace, the grade six students took part in a rite of leave-taking recitation led by students Jackson Murphy and Teagen Trask. Mateva Turmel led the closing prayer.

This liturgy was followed by a rite of change of leadership from the grade six students to grade five students, with the grade six students handling over the mantel of leadership in the school community to the grade five students.

A number of symbols of this

leadership were exchanged from the grade six students to the grade five students. Receiving these on behalf of their classmates were grade five students Olivia Piercey, Luca DiPaolo, Hillary Sterling and Noah Kramer.

The symbols included a

French book as a symbol of bilingualism, a lantern to show the light to other students, a St. Philip team jersey to represent school pride, a basketball representing sports, a math book representing everything learned at school, a Canadian flag to symbolize

freedom and love of country and a crucifix to represent the Catholic faith.

The grade six students then received a blessing done by Rev. Bob Poole of St. Philip Catholic Parish.

Sports - Canada’s top motocross racers are coming to the Sand Del Lee Motocross Park near Richmond.

They will be at Sand Del Lee on Sunday, July 20 for a race that is part of the 22nd annual Rockstar Energy Drink Motocross Nationals, a ten race series sanctioned by the Canadian Motocross Racing Corporation that is the sport’s Canadian Pro Motocross Championship.

This will be the sixth stop in the ten race series that began at the end of May in British Columbia and after races in British Columbia, Alberta and Saskatchewan in June, has now reached Ontario. A race at Courtland, Ontario on Saturday, July 12 will precede the race at Sand Del Lee Motocross Park on Sunday, July 20. After the Sand Del Lee race, the series goes on to Quebec and New Brunswick sites before ending up at the Walton Raceway in Walton, Ontario on Sunday, Aug. 17.

But this Rockstar Energy Drink Motocross Nationals race on Sunday, July 20 is not all that is happening at the Sand Del Lee Motocross Park that weekend.

On Saturday, July 19, a race in the 2014 Canadian Motocross Racing Corporation’s Women’s Eastern Canadian Nationals will be held at Sand Del Lee Motocross Park.

This is one of three races that lead to the Eastern Canada Championship.

The Women’s Nationals in motocross include both an Eastern and Western Championship, with each championship series consisting of three races. The Sand Del Lee race is one of three in the Eastern Canada Championship series.

The Sand Del Lee Motocross Park hosted MX101 Ironman Challenge Series races last weekend. This is a nine race series that attracts riders from all across Eastern Ontario.

The Sand Del Lee Motocross Park is operated by Mx101 which not only hosts major race events like the upcoming Rockstar Energy Drink Motocross Nationals race but also offers a full rider education program.

Sand Del Lee may be the oldest motocross track in Canada, having hosted its first motocross race back in 1970. It will mark its 45th anniversary as a track in 2015.

Dale Argue of Stittsville, who passed away in 2010, founded the Sand Del Lee track. MX101 took over operation of the track in 2001.

Sand Del Lee got its name because it is a sand track, is considered to be in a dell (small valley with trees and grass) and is a lee (it is protected).

The Sand Del Lee Motocross Park is located on Conley Road off Franktown Road west of Richmond.

getting past second base.

The pitchers who wove this masterful mound duel were Dan Konkle of the 56ers and Corey Costello of the Twins. Dan ended up hurling a one hitter while Corey only allowed two hits. Dan struck out 14 batters

while Corey rang up 18 strikeouts.

Tyler Nustedt and Scott Parsons had the only hits for the 56ers while Jamey Mick’s bunt single was the only hit for the Micksburg squad.

This game was quite a change from the game between the two teams the night before at Alexander Grove in Stittsville when the 56ers defeated the Micksburg squad 10-3, with the game ending after four and a half innings.

The Cogeco TV community TV broadcast of the scoreless tie game will be shown to Cogeco viewers in the Pembroke-Petawawa-Deep River areas several times over a number of days. This game between the Stittsville 56ers and the Micksburg Twins is one of three Greater Ottawa Fastball League games which Cogeco TV is planning to broadcast, all of them involving the Micksburg team.

The Stittsville 56ers will play the Fitzroy Harbour West Carleton Electric team on Wednesday, July 16 at 8:30 p.m. at Alexander Grove in Stittsville.

The Stittsville 56ers are currently in first place in the Greater Ottawa Fastball League with 15 points thanks to a record of six wins, one loss and three ties.

The Quyon Flyers, Kanata Pirates and Micksburg Twins are all tied for second place with 11 points each.

Next with eight points are the league’s three remaining teams, the Kars Aces, West Carleton Electric and 14C Victory.

Increasing public awareness of youth mental health and drug abuse are positive steps that need to happen in today’s society to improve and increase the help and resources available to those in need in such circumstances.

Justin Phillips is a defensive tackle with the team. He is a veteran of the Canadian Football League (CFL), having come to the RedBlacks from the Calgary Stampeders.

Justin attended Sacred Heart High School in Stittsville and played minor football for the Bell Warriors before going on to play university football and then with the Calgary Stampeders.

Justin, who was born in 1985, played his university football at Sir Wilfrid Laurier University. He was drafted fifth overall in the 2007 CFL draft by the Calgary Stampeders with whom he played until this season when he joined the new Ottawa RedBlacks. He will be wearing jersey number 44 for the Ottawa RedBlacks this season.

The Bell Warriors Football Club, which was founded in 1955, provides minor football programs to youth living in the Stittsville, Richmond, Munster, Goulbourn, Bells Corners, Bayshore and Britannia areas of the city of Ottawa.

MARY COOK Mary Cook’s Memories Lifestyle - The sun was just starting to come up. Father had roused the brothers, and with great effort they dressed, ate their breakfast in silence, and followed him to the barns. They would head to the back fields.

The hay had been mowed to form windrows, and now sat in little stacks which the brothers and Father had worked at for several days, getting it ready to load onto the wagon and brought over to the hayloft in the barn. They would be there for at least a whole day, working quickly just in case it rained, soaking the mounds of hay, which would have to be dried out before being put into the hay loft.

The flat topped wagon would already be in the field with board sides put on to hold the hay, and pitch-forks leaning against it ready for the job at hand. It would be a long, hot day ahead for Father and my three brothers. Mother would have packed sandwiches and pieces of slab cake in an 11-quart basket, and jars of water with shards of ice.

By the time the sun was high in the sky and my own chores done in the house, Mother would say, “Alright, Mary, you can head out now if you want.” I would carry another basket of sandwiches, and more water to tide Father and the brothers over.

The field was the biggest on the farm, even bigger than what we called the 20-Acre Field that separated our farm from the Thoms. A rail fence, put up by Father’s great-grandfather, circled the field, and a log gate was at one end where Father could take the team in an out when necessary.

That day, when I got to the field, the work was still all at the farthest end, and the mounds of hay still to be loaded onto the wagon reminded me of the gumdrops in a big glass jar sitting

One hay bale remained in field all season long

on the counter at Briscoe’s General Store.

I was barely through the gate when I saw the bird. I stopped dead so as not to frighten it. It was on one of the hay stacks, head deep in the hay, and its tail fluttering. I put the basket down and walked slowly towards the hay, and the bird showed its displeasure by swooping in and out of the hay declaring ownership. I knew it was nesting, and knew too, there were either eggs or baby birds deep inside.

Before the day was out, that mound of hay would be on the wagon, and the birds nest and whatever was in it, gone. I dropped the basket and ran through the field to where Father and the boys were forking the hay onto the wagon, and cried to Father that there was one haystack that he couldn’t touch, and told him why.

Emerson said he was heading right over to the place with the fork, and that would be the end of the bird’s nest. Father told him to stay where he was -- there was plenty of work to do at that end of the field. Then Father followed me over to the gate and the haystack where the little bird had nested. He put his finger to his lips, signalling me to be quiet. The bird was frantic, making a lot of noise and going in and out of the hay, hovering, and proclaiming ownership again. Father took my hand and led me towards the opening in the field before he spoke. He said one haystack left in the field would neither make nor break us, and he saw no reason why the bird couldn’t be left alone. I was so overjoyed, I hugged his overall covered leg, and thanked him over and over again.

And so for the rest of the season, standing alone in that big hay field was one small mound. It would shrink in size. It would turn brown from the sun, but it would have served as a safe haven to a little bird who called it home.

Special to the News

Sports - The National Hockey League draft has happened. Jason Spezza has been traded by the Ottawa Senators to the Dallas Stars.

Free agent signings are happening throughout the National Hockey League, with Milan Michalek resigning with the Senators. So hockey is in the air even though it is summertime.

And hockey is in the air not only for the National Hockey League but also for the Stittsville Minor Hockey Association (SMHA).

The SMHA is holding a walk-in registration session for the 20142015 hockey season on Wednesday, July 16 from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. upstairs at Brown’s Your Independent Grocer on Stittsville Main Street in Stittsville.

Players, whether they want to play house or competitive hockey in the coming season, must register first with the SMHA. The SMHA

program runs from Initiation (born in 2008 and 2009) through Novice, Atom, Peewee, Bantam and Midget to Juvenile (born 1995 and 1996).

Fees for new and returning players for the 2014-2015 season, if registered before Aug. 15, are $505 for the Initiation program, $635 for the Novice, Atom, Peewee, Bantam and Midget Programs and $545 for the Juvenile Program.

Returning players wishing to register online are able to do so now.

The SMHA offers a range of hockey programs to over 1,100 players aged 5 to 19 years.

SMHA’s House Division plays under the name Stittsville RAMS with the teams participating in the LanarkCarleton Minor Hockey league.

The Competitive Division of the Stittsville RAMS participates in the Ottawa District Minor Hockey League at the Tier II level.

The SMHA is affiliated with the Silver Seven and the Ottawa Valley

Titans at the A, AA and AAA levels.

The coaches for the Stittsville RAMS competitive teams for the coming season are Mike Dagenais in major novice; Dean Taylor in minor atom; Shaye Friesen in major atom; Mark Yakabuski in minor peewee; Chris St. Germain in major peewee; Chris Collins in minor bantam; Tim Swords in major bantam; and Geoff Ley in major midget. The minor midget coaching position is vacant at present. The objectives of the SMHA are to foster, improve and perpetuate the sport of hockey, to encourage sportsmanship and fair play among players, to exercise a general supervision and direction over players, team and game officials and executive officers with an emphasis on the enhancement of health recreation, good sportsmanship and citizenship and to provide equal opportunity for all eligible players within the prescribed Association boundaries to participate in the sport.
