Clara rides through Brockville

News – Sherri Simzer’s impact on the business community has been nothing short of remarkable. For her many valued contributions over the years, the executive director of the Employment and Education Centre was presented with the Lifetime Business Achievement Award during the Brockville and District Chamber of Commerce annual general meeting March 27.

Tom Russell, executive director of the award sponsor, 1000 Islands Community Development Corporation, was proud to make the presentation.

From very modest beginnings in 1985, with Simzer as the sole employee, the Employment and Education Centre has grown to serve 10,000 clients this year.

“All of this from a dream at a desk,� Russell said, emotion in his voice.

Calling the EEC a “local juggernaut,� he said Simzer has changed many lives through her role. The agency assists 1,000 people a year to find work, while helping 10,000 others to make changes in their lives through services offered such as employment counselling, workshops, resume preparation and other offerings. There is now more than 20 full-time staff.

Simzer is everything the Chamber envisioned when they created this award. Russell said she is empowering, kind and believes in her community.

Achieving a remarkable level of success, he described, she has See SIMZER page 3

The ride itself is a 110-day “national bicycle tour through every province and territory.� It began in Toronto March 14 and will come to an end in Ottawa on Canada Day.

Clara’s Big Ride stops in Gananoque Six-time Olympic medalist raises funds, awareness for mental health

By JAN MURRAY

News - Clara Hughes is a household name these days but not because she is a six-time Canadian Olympic speed-skating and cycling medalist. Hughes name is familiar to even more these days and it is due to Clara’s Big Ride.

The new spokesperson for Bell Let’s Talk, Hughes has embarked on a 110-day national bicycle tour that will take her through every province and territory in Canada. She began her trek on March 14, in Toronto and will conclude in Ottawa on July 1. During that long 12,000 km ride she will not only endure both freezing cold and incredibly hot temperatures, she will also

have the opportunity to visit 95 communities, and most importantly grow awareness and create action in the hopes of bringing about a Canada that is stigmafree.

As part of this journey, Hughes welcomed the opportunity to make Gananoque one of her stops. On Tuesday March 25, Hughes walked into the Gananoque Intermediate and Secondary School auditorium to an aweinspiring cheer from students, teachers, staff and dignitaries.

Her quest has been noted and people are listening.

Hughes made light of the undesirable temperatures by joking with students. “We rode 180km yesterday. It was kind of cold.

such as GISS she aims to empower youth to not only understand what mental health means but also to explain to them how they can help; how they can support others who may be suffering.

The students listened intently as she explained her own personal experiences. “I grew up in a family that had a lot of problems. My dad was a raging alcoholic actually. It was a very abusive environment that I grew up in and my parents split up when I was nine years old.”

Her story continued to tell of a less than advantageous childhood where she tended to follow the path of her friends and make bad choices. “By the time I got to Grade 6, my friends started smoking and drinking and doing a lot of drugs.

So I started smoking, and drinking and doing a lot of drugs,” she explained. “I stopped going to school too ‘cause that’s what my friends did too.”

Thankfully, that all changed for Hughes when she was 16 years old.

She looked at where she was in life

and where a lot of her friends were and something finally changed. She was inspired. Inspired by Olympic sport.

It was a life-changing moment for her when she witnessed Olympic speed skater Gaetan Boucher compete. It was then she decided, “That is what I’m going to do. I don’t know how or why or when or where. But this is it. It was this beautiful moment of speed skating that I’d seen. That day my life changed.”

As she became involved in speed skating, life seemed to become worthwhile and instead of focusing on the bad and always getting in trouble, she was finally focusing on striving to be good at something. It injected her with goals, with confidence.

“I hope that by sharing a little today about where I come from, and then sharing a little bit of what I’ve been able to do, and what I’ve gone through, I hope I can show you that anything is possible.”

She shared her experience with a coach, who although he had the best intentions, caused her great emotional pain. His style of coaching meant con-

stantly telling her how slow she was, how fat she was, how useless she was.

Although he thought these insults would motivate her, they instead fed on her insecurities.

“He fed the feelings of worthlessness, of hopelessness, self doubt, of self-loathing. All those things I had from growing up in that environment, where I still remember being that five-year old kid, hiding in a closet, crying because I couldn’t stop my dad from screaming at my mom for yet another night. I had those feelings of failure inside.”

So she poured herself into her sport; worked harder than she ever believed she could, pushed herself to the limits and in turn won a bronze metal on her very first attempt. She honestly believed that this accomplishment would make her feel better, would make all those feelings go away, and yet she was wrong.

“As the weeks turned into months after that first Olympics, I felt worse. I didn’t even want to see those medals,” she explained. “After a couple months’ time, I was actually in a state of clinical depression that took two years to get out of. I only got through that by finally ac-

“I realized after a long time that I couldn’t tackle it alone. Depression was too big, even for someone with Olympic medals. It was impossible to get through alone.”

ArtScene in Spencerville holds grand reopening Saturday, April 5 Events - When members of Spencerville’s ArtScene Gallery were informed their building was to be renovated and the display area available to the gallery would be reduced, not by much but sufficiently to require some rearranging, the artists could easily have relocated the displaced art to another part of the gallery.

Instead, though, they decided the upheaval was an opportunity not to be missed, and they took advantage of the occasion to redesign the gallery and to refine the look and feel of the space.

This weekend, the public is invited to come and experience the marginally smaller but nevertheless new and improved ArtScene gallery when it is officially reopened to visitors following two busy months of renovations. “It’s not the same gallery,� says ArtScene chair and member artist Colleen Morris-Wilson.

ArtScene comprises two large rooms inside an attractive old stone building along Spencerville’s main street. A third room was eliminated during the renovation, and if ever there was an example of addition by subtraction, this might be it, for the remodelled gallery is now a more stylish and inviting

The first room in the gallery, the one into which the front door opens, has seen fewer changes than the second but has nevertheless been outfitted and redesigned with the visitor’s comfort in mind. The second room has undergone a total transformation and looks like the kind of display space one might find in downtown Ottawa.

by Simzer. It was she who offered Russell his job 24 years ago. That was at a time when there were funding issues, guaranteeing no more than six months of work.

Special certificates were also provided that day from Leeds Grenville MP Gord Brown and MPP Steve Clark.

Neither was able to attend the special ceremony, however both sent their congratulations.

Taking to the lectern, Simzer explained she always managed the not-for-profit agency

as a business. The award also belongs to the board of directors and staff, she said to the large crowd that morning.

This is the third year the award has been given out by the Chamber. Last year John and Steve Mazurek were the recipients and Dave Jones won it in 2012.

monthly basis, with one or two featured at any given time, and each month a featured artist is chosen from the members’ stable to have his or her work displayed prominently near the entrance to the gallery. The featured artworks are often centered around a theme, as well.

This month’s exhibit is showing pieces created by Morris-Wilson, a fabric artist, and photographer Christopher Fawcett, both of whom were inspired by The Wonders of the Orient. “We’ve got so much gorgeous work in here,� says photographer Helen Mott. “People really need to come out to see it.�

The public is invited to do just that on Saturday, April 5, during the gallery’s grand re-opening. Members artists, guest artists and dignitaries will all be there, refreshments will be served after a brief christening of the new digs, and a silent auction will offer visitors the chance to take home some of the artwork on display or even to create some art themselves, as at least one of the gallery’s artists is offering a session of one-on-one instruction to the highest bidder.

The opening takes place at 11 a.m., and ArtScene is located at 11 Spencer St. in Spencerville. More information about the gallery and its grand reopening can be found on its very active blogsite at artscenespencerville.blogspot.ca.

Coloured in striking black and white with large windows bathing the interior in sunlight during the day and professional track lighting illuminating the art at night, the room is furnished with some of the finest paintings, photography and sculpture as can be seen in this region.

And though a large number of works are on display, the room still feels open.

There is plenty of space in which to move around and in which to take a step back for a different perspective on the artwork hanging on the walls. “We reorganized it completely,� says Morris-Wilson, adding that credit must be given to the building’s owners, who helped ArtScene make the most of the renovation.

Landlords Joe and JoAnne Moulton saw to it that new windows were installed in the gallery, the bathroom was

refurbished, and the wiring was changed to allow for improved lighting. “The Moultons have been extremely generous,� says Morris-Wilson.

As much as has changed, though, much has remained the same at ArtScene.

The gallery is still run cooperatively by its members, who currently number 12, and the calibre of art and artist remains high. Guest artists are regularly invited to exhibit their work alongside that of members, and a stringent jurying process ensures that ArtScene’s precious exhibition space is awarded to only those artists whose work merits it.

No style, media or sensibility is denied consideration, and ArtScene members vary greatly in their approach and choice of medium, with some creating works from fabric or wax and other preferring more conventional oil on canvas. Guest artists, too, run the gamut. In fact, the current one is Tasha Thorpe, who works entirely within the steam punk genre and whose unique and intriguing sculptures can’t help but be noticed on display in the gallery’s windows. “The quality of the art is the same, but everything is displayed differently,� says Morris-Wilson.

Every two months, members replace their work with new pieces, which as much as gives the gallery a complete makeover and visitors a reason to come back often. Guest artists are rotated on a

Music and Performing Arts Hall of Fame inducts six new members just want to say very clearly that Art Wood; look around at this facility, if this gentleman had not done what he did this would not be here. This is clearly one of the premiere facilities in Ontario.”

Continuing, Henderson said the Brockville Art Centre is just a building but it is people who make the connection by spreading the word and skill, in front and behind the scenes, which all come together on stage.

Arts – Another fabulous Brockville and Area Music and Performing Arts Hall of Fame induction took place with six new members added as members for 2014: music teacher and performer Lynn Barkley, stage manager Marianne Bimm, The Fabulous BelAirs, singer and actor Harold Hess, tuba player Matt Wilson and the late Art Wood.

Wylie spoke of the late Art Wood as being a fixture at the Brockville Arts Centre with his trademark cigar and dog.

“Art came to Brockville in 1919,” said Wylie. “He came to the theatre and just never left. When they talked about tearing down the theatre, Art said ‘they are not tearing this down’. He led

The group of five students are putting this on in order to fulfill a communications credit. The group felt this was an excellent cause for which to raise dollars, noted Taylor Benoit, one of the students spearheading the event.

The Homeless Veteran Assistance Fund, Operation Leave the Streets Behind, has a mission statement of, “To ensure that every veteran who is homeless or near homeless finds the help they need to leave the streets behind,” notes the Royal Canadian Legion Ontario Provincial Command website.

The fund originally began after, in 2009, Joe Sweeney, a Korean War veteran, “wanted to organize a Remembrance Day ceremony to honour the homeless veterans. With assistance from the Royal Canadian Legion, Ontario Command it was held at the Scott Mission in Toronto. At the conclusion of the ceremony it quickly became evident that there were a number of homeless Veterans within the city.”

From there partnerships were formed and now, the fund exists to aid and prevent veterans from becoming homeless.

Tickets can be purchased from the Scotiabank on King Street, from board members or by contacting Loaves and Fishes at 613-345-6498. Scotiabank will match each ticket sold at their location.

Loaves and Fishes board president Mary Mansworth said the fundraiser has been embraced by the community.

The hope is that each time the empty bowl is taken from your cupboard it will serve as a reminder that someone else’s bowl was empty and that, on this occasion, you helped Loaves and Fishes alleviate hunger in our community. “This really is a community effort and we’re pleased people continue to support us,� said Mansworth. She noted the potters feel very committed to making enough bowls and have generously donated their time and skills.

Marr, a potter with 56 years of experience, is one of the contributors. St. Lawrence College donated workshop space and kiln time. Clay is donated by Tucker’s Pottery Supplies in Richmond Hill.

A host of volunteers help on the day of the event, said Mansworth.

Loaves and Fishes is a non-profit charity in operation for the past 12 years. The restaurant serves approximately 100 people in need each weeknight, including young families.

The cost is a $1 per meal.

Loaves and Fishes is located in the lower entrance at 25 Front St. E. The charity relies completely on cash and food donations.

He opened his report at the Chamber’s annual general meeting March 27 with this suggestion.

The year 2013 had many highlights, Keenleyside told those at the Brockville Country Club, including such sold-out events as the Awards of Excellence Gala, annual Golf Tournament and more. The organization’s regular Business After 5 events continue to be popular and provide networking opportunities.

While membership may be down a bit, sitting at approximately 450, the board president sees this as a call to action – to hear the concerns of members, as well as to improve, retain membership Photo by MARLA DOWDALL and grow.

He was delighted with the turnout that morning, calling it, David Keenleyside, Brockville and “very strong.”

District Chamber of Commerce The financial report from the chamber’s corporate secretary, board president.

Brent Argue, brought good news. “We are in a very financially solid position.” The Chamber ended the year with a surplus – its major sell-out events helping to impact the bottom line.

Anne MacDonald, executive director, noted the Chamber’s events provide an opportunity to engage with the business community at a deeper level, to network. Other news MacDonald revealed is that it will be taking over management of the Eastern Ontario Events Centre, and has commandeered Jan Bonhomme as manager.

What isn’t news is the Chamber’s continued advocacy initiatives. It has been and will continue to be heavily involved with the Ontario and Canadian Chambers of Commerce and will ensure the local voice remains at the table.

DEAR EDITOR:

Editorial – Food is one of the most important aspects of our lives. It sustains and nurtures us. And throughout Leeds, Grenville and Lanark there has been a movement to ensure we all have access to safe, healthy food that is locally grown, ensuring there is a place for our growers and producers.

Last month the long talked about food charter was unveiled at Farrell Hall in Perth. After months of planning by the steering committee, foodcoreLGL, including a survey to local residents about what they would like to see, the food charter will become a reality. The concept began to be shaped back in March 2013.

It provides a set of guiding principles promoting food that is “fresh, accessible, safe and affordable and an agricultural system that is strong both now and in the future. A food charter will strengthen the local economy, support local producers, promote environmental conservation and improve the health and well-being of residents,” according to foodcoreLGL’s website: www.foodcorelgl.ca.

It’s important for our future generations (and ourselves) to understand how our food is produced and where it comes from. Ever wonder how far that head of broccoli or apple travelled to make it to your table? Wouldn’t we all feel safer knowing that our potatoes or carrots came from a farm in Spencerville or a farmers’ market in Brockville? Having a food charter will open a dialogue about food and agriculture in our communities and make connections with organizations and groups. It can ensure we all have safe, nutritious food and also protect farmland and provide further opportunities for growers and producers.

This is a document for the future and we hope it will be adopted not only by residents of the tri-counties, but also businesses, schools and local levels of government. It will certainly give us all some food for thought.

Never-ending winter would wear on Mother at this time of year Lifestyle - My sister Audrey’s voice was stern that night. “I don’t know how often I have to tell you, Mary” she said, wagging a finger under my nose. “It has nothing to do with you. Mother gets like that every so often. You should be used to it by now.”

The issue was Mother’s mood. She had that look about her that gave me knots in the pit of my stomach. But that year, as winter seemed to go on forever, the snow hadn’t even begun to melt, and the Model T was still up on blocks in the drive shed, Mother seemed more melancholy than usual.

And of course, as usual, I thought I had done something to upset her.

Something terrible, like forgetting to close my eyes when saying our prayers at her knee at night. Or not wiping the oilcloth on the kitchen table to her satisfaction after redding up after supper.

But Audrey said, no. I had done nothing to put her in her mood.

Once again she told me that this time of year was when Mother most missed her beloved New York. “It happens every year. Don’t you remember? Just when winter is about over.”

Mary Cook’s Memories MARY COOK

I would ask my sister to explain it all to me again. And she said it was sort of like getting the stomach flu, only there was no medicine to make it better.

To make matters worse, the last big snow storm prevented the Philadelphia Enquirer from arriving at Ritza’s Drug Store! The paper was as thick as Eaton’s Catalogue, and once Mr. Ritza told Mother she was the only one in the entire county who got the Philadelphia Enquirer!

So Mother was even without that connection to the city she had left, to live in the backwoods of Renfrew County, on a farm with no running water, no electricity and miles from the nearest town.

It seemed to me that during the day, Mother was happier than she was at Vice President & Regional Publisher Mike Mount mmount@perfprint.ca 613-283-3182, ext. 104 Regional General Manager Peter O’Leary poleary@perfprint.ca 613-283-3182, ext. 112 General Manager Seaway Gavin Beer gbeer@perfprint.ca Managing Editor Ryland Coyne

night this time of year. And again, my much wiser and older sister Audrey said it was because her days were filled with washing and ironing, baking, and keeping the old log house in ship-shop shape.

It was the evenings, when only the coal-oil lamp in the middle of the table lit the kitchen, and the wind howled outside, and the branches of the bare tree close to the house, scraped against the windows, that Mother fidgeted at one end of the table, often staring off into space. She took to looking up to one corner of the kitchen ceiling, as if she were searching for something. And then she would give her head a shake, and bend down to her diaries in front of her.

If Father was aware of the change in Mother, he said nothing. He still dozed in the rocking chair by the cook stove, puffing on his pipe until he fell asleep, and the pipe landed on his chest leaving his mouth, or as often happened, slid to the floor, landing on the Ottawa Farm Journal, or the Family Herald and Weekly Star.

I would sit at the long kitchen table, pretending to be drawing in a five cent

scribbler, bought at the Rexall One Cent Sale, and kept for just such an evening past-time. But my eyes would be on Mother.

And in the silence of the kitchen, the brothers quietly doing what amused them, and Audrey embroidering, I could actually hear Mother’s pencil, sliding over the page in her diary. It made the faintest of sounds, but on those evenings when Mother’s mind was a million miles away, I was so aware of every move she made at the end of the table.

It was at that time that she wrote furiously in her diaries. She sat with her left arm circling her scribbler, and I would see her nod, as if confirming what she was writing, and I could tell when she came to the end of a sentence. She would jab at the paper with the pencil, as if to say, “There now. That’s how I feel.”

I longed to see what she had written, but of course, no one was allowed near her scribblers which were kept in the upper shelf of the back-to-the-wall cupboard. That was a sacred place.

At other times I would fall asleep to the click-clack of the old treadle Singer

sewing machine when Mother sewed after we had gone to bed. It was a wonderful, soothing sound.

But now, the house was quiet. The only sounds came from Father plugging more wood into the stove.

We would have said our prayers as usual. And as usual, Mother would put her hand on each head signalling it was time for us to say our own prayer and ask God for special favours.

And I would pray for the end of winter. I would pray that before long our evenings would return to happier times.

When joy would come from Mother playing the harmonica, as Audrey and I leafed through Eaton’s catalogue. When the days were longer, the snow had left the foundation of the house, and Mother would once again return from wherever she was on those dark and gloomy nights at the end of winter.

Carbon monoxide alarms now law in Ontario sciousness.

Another important point Healy wanted to make was with regards to the existing carbon monoxide that homeowners may already have. Check the date on the unit, as some were only good for five years. Manufacturers recommended replacement after five years, which with newer models will function anywhere from seven to 10 years.

It is advised that any purchase of carbon monoxide alarm or CO alarm should be certified by CSA (Canadian Standards Association) or UL (Underwriters Laboratories) approved.

“If anyone has any concerns, cares or questions about their safety, safety of their home or family, give their fire department a call,” said Healy. “We will be more than happy to stop over and guide them through the proper location and installation of carbon monoxide alarms.”

Chief fire prevention officer Greg Healy holds three types of carbon monoxide alarms. From left to right are combination smoke, carbon monoxide talking alarm unit and is battery operated, a combination smoke, a carbon monoxide hard wired unit with battery back-up and the third is a plug-in carbon monoxide alarm with battery back-up. Remember it is law to have a carbon monoxide alarm in a residential home, as it may save a life.

SAFETY TIPS Candles: Never leave children or pets unattended in a room with a candle or oil lamp.

R0012626009_0403

News – The number one cause of deaths in North America is due to unintentional poisoning such as carbon monoxide.

“Up until Jan. 1, 2014, carbon monoxide alarms have not been recognized in the fire code,” said chief fire prevention officer Greg Healy. “It was recognized by TSSA (Technical Standards and Safety Association), but the Fire Code did not address the requirements for carbon monoxide detection or alarms.”

TSSA is a not-for-profit organization, whose purpose is to promote and enforce public safety.

There are four key sectors in which TSSA delivers public safety services: - boilers and pressure vessels and operating engineers, - elevating devices, amusement devices and ski lifts, - fuels, - upholstered and stuffed articles.

Due to several deaths in Ontario, Bill 20 Hawkins Gignac Act (Carbon Monoxide Safety), 2013, Chapter 14, was enacted to remind people how necessary it is to have functioning carbon monoxide alarms in residential buildings with a fuel burning appliance.

Carbon monoxide is a colourless, tasteless and odourless gas, known as the silent killer.

To intentionally disable a carbon monoxide detector is against the law.

“Basically effective Jan. 1, 2014, you are required to have a working carbon monoxide alarm in every residential property that has a fuel burning appliance,” said Healy.

Fuel burning appliance refers to oil, kerosene, coal, pellet, natural gas, propane and wood.

The only time not needed is with an electric furnace or baseboard electric heating.

According to Healy, the alarm should be located in an area where it can be heard, outside the sleeping areas, similar to smoke and fire detectors.

“Carbon monoxide is basically neutral buoyant,” said Healy. “It doesn’t appreciatively rise or appreciatively sink, once it’s heated it may rise a little bit more than normal. It’s not like a heavier gas where it will sink to the basement or float, like helium into the attic; it’s not like smoke.”

The carbon monoxide alarms on the market today are battery operated or hard wired or a plug-in.

“They can be put a foot off the floor, which is acceptable,” stated Healy. “A hard wired alarm would be installed where the hard wire smoke alarm is. Battery operated can be mounted on the wall or the ceiling.

From May 1 to mid May the Home Inspection Program will be starting up again and carbon monoxide alarms have been added to the check list.

Fire officers will be checking for location and proper installation of smoke and fire detectors as well as carbon monoxide alarms.

There should not be any interference between the detector and alarm if placed side-by-side.

In addition to the fuel burning residential building, if a garage is attached to the home, with a fuel burning appliance, the garage requires a carbon monoxide alarm.

“For apartment buildings, the Fire Marshall’s office has set up a technical committee and is still working on the requirements for multi-unit residential,” said Healy. “In the draft of the original legislation there were some requirements. Right now we are saying put one in the common hallway outside the furnace room or the area where carbon monoxide could be present.”

The signs and symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning are dull headache, weakness, dizziness, nausea, vomiting, shortness of breath, confusion, blurred vision and loss of con-

Other plans to help balance the 20142015 budget include leveraging the benefits of innovative staffing models, introducing lean initiatives, new partnerships, and elimination of waste.

The hospital will redesign its current organizational structure to support the reduction of management staff, but also to better align with a new three-year strategy. “We look forward to delivering the very best whole hospital experience, so it’s important that we have the right people in the right jobs. Our new strategy is being developed to reflect the more than 2,000 responses received from patients, families, staff and physicians,� says Weeks.

SAFETY TIPS Smoke Alarms: Test your smoke alarms. If a fire starts in your home while you are asleep, you want to know about it immediately. Some homes are equipped with electrically connected smoke alarms that may not work when the power is out. Make sure your home has a battery-operated smoke alarm on every level.

News - When talking about elder abuse, we all assume we are talking about the same thing, but in fact we are all seeing the issue through a different lens, Judith Wahl, executive director for the Advocacy Centre for the Elderly (ACE) told those gathered March 26 at the Brockville Memorial Civic Centre.

Elder Abuse – Recognizing and Supporting the Older Adults at Risk in Our Community forum took place that day, bringing in more than 100 people from various agencies, such as emergency services, banks, Victim Services and others. Leeds Ontario Provincial Police partnered with the Local Elder Abuse Prevention (LEAP) Network of Lanark, Leeds and Grenville in order to present the session.

Featuring speakers from Providence Care, Alzheimer Society as well as police agencies, the aim of the day was to connect those who work with the elderly to understand the resources that are out there, to mesh together where they can and to understand when certain services can be accessed.

“This is a very worthwhile conference,” commented OPP Superintendent Carson Pardy as he opened the day’s events. “This should be of concern to everyone in the room.”

He called the conference an important step in bringing people together.

Wahl, the first speaker that morning, has been the ED at the ACE since 1984. Reminding those in the room of the “Lens” analogy, she counselled audience members, that they should know what elder abuse issues are in their sectors.

They should be versed on what they need to know, as well as to understand the privacy aspects of the issues that come forth in their jobs. Understanding service systems and if they are accessible to the people that need them is important as well.

One case which has stood out for Wahl was of an elderly gentleman held captive for five years. The arrangement had begun voluntary; he had been single and alone. A family offered to help him with his shopping. It escalated from there

abuse,” she commented. It is many things and comes in many forms.

Misuse and abuse of Power of Attorney (POA) is a huge issue, she said.

Joint bank accounts are also becoming a “problematic area.” Seniors will sometimes get joint bank accounts with their families, she said, creating the potential for abuse.

‘The biggest thing with elder abuse is prevention,” she said.

The information shared that day, followed by a panel review of questions was catered to service providers in the community who work with or are exposed to the elderly; it was open to lawyers, the police, real estate agents, bankers, anyone who might gain by learning more about the subject matter.

find for the elderly, she explained. Their income may be too high for legal aid, and often legal clinics are inundated with income maintenance issues to handle matters such as these.

At times others may not identify behaviours as abuse, as they think they are acting with benevolence for the “good” of the senior, they may think the senior doesn’t understand. Or they may think they are required to do something due to their work, or perhaps even that they are entitled and therefore not doing anything wrong, she listed.

She asked the audience to think about what it is they think elder abuse is. Then to consider what a senior citizen would say if asked the same question.

Entertainment - St. Lawrence College’s Music Theatre –Performance program is pleased to present a new production of Alain Boublil and ClaudeMichel Schönberg’s Les Misérables, a sweeping epic tale of broken dreams, passion and sacrifice at the Brockville Arts Centre from April 10-13.

Les Misérables tells the story of Jean Valjean’s quest for redemption after being jailed for stealing a loaf of bread. While he is relentlessly pursued by inspector Javert for parole violation, Valjean and a slew of characters are swept into a revolutionary period in 19th century France, where a group of young idealists make their last stand at a street barricade.

“Our interpretation of Les Misérables emphasizes the haunting music and the underlying themes of spirituality, religion and God,” said Michael Bianchin program coordinator of the Music Theatre –Performance program.

Based on the musical interpretation of French songwriter Alain Boublil and French composer Claude-Michel Schönberg’s adaptation of Victor Hugo’s novel Les Misérables in 1980, this Tony award winning musical sensation is in its 28th year and is still going strong today.

There will be four performances of Les Misérables at the Brockville Arts Centre: - Thursday, April 10, 8 p.m., - Friday, April 11, at 8 p.m., - Saturday April 12, at 8 p.m., - Sunday April 13, at 2 p.m.

Ticket prices are $39.50 for adults and $26.50 for students. Special group rates are available. Please call the Brockville Arts Centre box office at 613-342-7122 for tickets or visit their website www. brockvilleartscentre.com to purchase online.

Local man completes 20 volume history of Prescott

By CONAN de VRIES

Lifestyle - Someday, some local historian will be looking for a record of Prescott’s King Street – the buildings, the businesses, the comings and goings through the decades – and will wonder in frustration whether such a chronicle even exists.

That local historian will eventually make a stop at the Prescott Public Library, ask the librarian for assistance and be pleasantly surprised when he or she is directed to a shelf stacked with photo albums containing a detailed account of the evolution of the Fort Town’s main street from the 1930s to the present day.

For this remarkable stroke of luck, the local historian will have John Perrin to thank.

A few weeks ago, Perrin stopped off at the library to drop off the last volume in what is now a 20-set compendium of not only the commercial and architectural history of the south and north sides of King Street and the area south of the main street, but also of all the ships, large and small, that have passed through the St. Lawrence Seaway since

John Perrin of Prescott has put together and donated to the Prescott Public Library a set of 20 books full of photos and information about the history of downtown Prescott and of the many ships and vessels that have passed or visited the Fort Town over the years.

its construction.

“There is something in there for everybody,” says Perrin.

Long interested in local history and having a particular fascination with his town’s nautical heritage, the octogenarian took more than 10 years to compile all the photos, names, dates and anecdotes that went into the 20 books.

The books are, in fact, large photo albums. There are 15 dedicated to ships and five to Prescott’s downtown. Each one contains pictures, some archival but many taken by Perrin himself, along with information culled from Perrin’s extensive research and from his personal recollections of much of what’s in the books.

“It brings back so many memories,” says Perrin of how he feels while tripping through the pages.

Perrin remembers when there were 10 grocery stores along King Street.

It was back in the 30s and 40s, when Prescott was still a regular stop for ships and boats plying the St. Lawrence River.

Ferries, coal boats, passenger vessels and freighters of all type and description pulled up alongside the Fort Town, and Perrin can recall times when more than a dozen ships at once were docked at the grain elevator that once dominated the

town’s waterfront.

“There would be 15 ships a week coming into Prescott,” says Perrin.

“Think about all the groceries they would buy.”

When the Seaway went through, says Perrin, it marked the end of Prescott’s heyday as a commercial port, but time marched on and it took the town with it, and there was certainly no less to see out on the river, as the volume of ship traffic has only increased over the years. And Perrin sought to record as much of it as he could.

The books tell of when the Royal Bank was at the corner of King and Center streets and not at the town’s west end as it is now, when the Dragon Garden was a popular bakery, when the presentday location of the TD Bank was the site of the Grand Union Grocery Store and Meat Market and when the Prescott Bottling plant stood at the east end of town.

The ship record goes back to the 60s and includes lake ships, salties, passenger ships, tall ships, naval vessels, tugs, barges and even a few floating dry docks and some dead ships under tow. There is also a separate pictorial record of ships’ funnels, and all 15 of the ship-related volumes are indexed for easy reference.

More history is made every day, though, and Perrin doesn’t feel he’s in a position to continue revising the books.

“I’m getting to the age where I won’t be able to update it,” he says, eager to find others interested in taking on the task.

“There are going to be so many things to update,” he says. “I would be very interested in somebody taking it over.”

If he could find a dozen or so, or with some luck maybe up to 20 interested people, Perrin would like to bring them all together one day to introduce them to the project and to the rich heritage contained in the books, in part just for the fun of exploring local history but also in the hope someone will be interested enough to take over for him.

Anyone interested in seeing the books or using them for research purposes can find them at the Prescott Public Library, and anybody inclined to help Perrin with the project is invited to contact him at 613-925-3955 or by dropping him a line at Box 1792, Prescott, K0E 1T0.

Plans under way for Delta Maple Syrup Festival ing for the children, and musical entertainment

by Rob Loree and Joe Brady from Gananoque on Saturday, there will be a blacksmithing demonstration at the Old Stone Mill Drive shed and a bake and book sale at the Old Town Hall.

On Saturday, there will also be a ball hockey tournament at the Recreation Centre in the morning and a dance at the Legion in the evening. To register for the ball hockey tournament, contact Steve at 613-246-1842.

There will be a special visit from the Easter Bunny with photo opportunities on Sunday.

If you are able to assist at this year’s festival, please contact Heather Halladay at 613-928-2949 for table servers and clean up or Melinda Held-Cowan at 613-924-1849 for cooking and serving pancakes. People wishing to reserve concession space may contact Marlaine Hart at 613-924-2407.

The event is sponsored by the Delta Agri-

cultural Society and follows a tradition which began in 1967 as a Centennial project under the leadership of Harold Russell who worked tirelessly as he arranged sugar bush visits and promoted demonstrations.

In the beginning, the festival was a three day event which included busloads of students who visited Delta on school trips to enjoy pancakes and syrup which were served on both floors of the Town Hall.

Visitors were able to tour the local sugar bushes and to watch maple syrup being bottled and maple candy being made in the Confederated Foods Syrup Plant.

Over the years, the festival continued through the efforts of many local residents and service clubs until it recently became a project for the directors of the Delta Agricultural Society.

For complete details, please visit the Delta Fair website at www.deltafair.com.

Events - The Annual General Meeting (AGM) for the St. John Ambulance Brigade of Leeds-Grenville and Lanark will be held on Friday, April 11 at CJ’s Banquet Hall. The business of the local Brigade will be conducted at this meeting that begins at 6 p.m. As well, awards will be handed out to St. John Ambulance volunteers who dedicated more than 11,500 hours of community service in 2013 throughout the tri-counties of Leeds-Grenville and Lanark.

Armand LaBarge, vice chair of community duty for St. John Ontario Council will be a special guest at the AGM and bring greetings from provincial headquarters.

The public is invited to attend and tickets may be purchased by contacting St. John House in Brockville at 613-342-2974 before Monday, April 7

He has been very instrumental when serving on the Brockville Concert Association in branching out from classical music to the youth programs and jazz festival. “Music and theatre shapes who we are, how we think and how we care for each other,� said Hess. “As caring adults, we can and should assist in finding those assets to support the skills of young children as they are developing and the arts

From the closing words of The Fabulous BelAirs, Wylie congratulated the inductees and thanked all who had made the evenings so special.

TD advises on specific considerations when taking a less conventional approach to buying property family members or friends, many of the guiding principles remain the same,” said Michelle Snow, associate vice president, retail products at TD. “Start by setting a realistic budget, talking to a mortgage specialist for advice and taking the time to make an informed decision. The real estate market may move fast, but that doesn’t mean you have to rush your decision.”

Whether buying alone or with someone else, the first step is to decide how much you are comfortable spending, and what the down payment will be. Homebuyers pooling their resources may be able to make a larger down payment on their purchase, and there are benefits to this.

®

BROKERAGE

For example, homebuyers who put down 20 per cent or more may avoid paying for mortgage default insurance. The premiums for mortgage default insurance are calculated as a percentage of the mortgage and paid up front or by adding it to the principal portion of the mortgage. Eliminating or decreasing this premium can result in significant savings over the lifetime of the mortgage.

“Once homebuyers set their budget and down payment, they can take their prospective monthly mortgage payment for a test-drive and ‘pay’ into a TFSA or savings account,” said Snow. “This two-fold solution allows the homebuyer to see how comfortable the monthly mortgage

payment is before locking in, and save for a larger down payment at the same time. For co-purchasers, it opens the line of communication to talk about how these monthly payments will work after the purchase.”

While agreeing on a budget and down payment are essential, the conversation shouldn’t stop there, Snow advises. Co-purchasers also need to agree on the key characteristics they want in a property, and what they are and are not willing to compromise on. For example, will the primary residence be a house or condominium? If it’s a second home to be used as a vacation destination, will it be a cabin in the woods or a

cottage by the water?

Once these decisions are made, consider how the associated costs, like taxes, insurance, utilities, repairs and maintenance fees will fit into the overall budget.

Unwelcome surprise “The last thing new homeowners want is an unwelcome surprise when they’re about to sign on the dotted line,” Snow said. “Whether purchasing alone, or with a co-purchaser, a mortgage specialist can help navigate home financing questions well before they’ve entered the house hunt, so they can make informed decisions that can save money and stress in the long run.”

Business - Today’s homebuyers don’t always look like the traditional nuclear family of the past.

As a recent TD survey discovered, a quarter of Canadians who bought a home in the last 24 months - or are planning to in the near future - did so on their own.

Furthermore, four in 10 Canadians think buying property - whether a primary residence or vacation home - with friends or family members is a great way to get started.

With this shift towards non-traditional ways of purchasing property, planning carefully can help avoid potential bumps on the road.

Vanier brings epilepsy awareness to students

By DOREEN BARNES

News – Purple day in Ontario is recognized as an annual international event in hopes of raising awareness about epilepsy.

Locally, Vanier Public School took steps to educate their students during an assembly in which a skit was performed by the Purple Crew (a group of five students) as to the do’s and don’ts of when a person is having a seizure. The reason for the skit was to show and teach students about individuals, children or adults who may experience a seizure and realize what it is and how they can help.

Kaitlyn Henderson, Journey Herbison, Owen Tucker, Hannah Ouderkirk and Teagan Blad decided to create this skit to better illustrate, along with T.R.U.S.T. signage.

At the end of the seizure demonstration, each student produced a letter of the acronym T.R.U.S.T. which was explained and means the following.

T – Turn individual on their side R – Remove any close objects, make space around individual U – Use a soft cloth or piece of

of South Eastern Ontario, located in Kingston was on hand to answer questions.

“These students were showing first aid for convulsive seizures that used to be called grand mal, but are now called tonic-clonic seizures,” said Harrison.

“The two things that you do not do that people still misunderstand are that you do not put anything in the person’s mouth, ever and don’t hold the person down.”

She also mentioned that the area should be cleared and to put something soft under the person’s head and when it is safe to do so roll the person on their side and time the seizure.

Most seizures are not medical emergencies, but if they last more than five minutes, call an ambulance.

According to the Epilepsy Ontario website (www.epilepsyontario.org), a seizure is a brief disruption in normal brain activity that interferes with brain function.

Whereas epilepsy is a term used to describe many different neurological disorders that all have a common feature, an increased risk of having seizures.

Epilepsy is not a disease, contagious or a psychological disorder. There is no known cure.

One per cent of the population has epilepsy and 10 per cent will have a seizure. Depending on the person, medication may be given and a person can lead a normal life like anyone else, while for others it can be devastating.

As the person comes out of the seizure, they may be disoriented and require additional time to recover, (depending on the type), whereas others will continue on with their day.

Harrison and Abcede are visiting area schools to bring education and awareness which is part of the service they provide.

“Last year was the first year we came to Vanier to present to a class,” said Harrison. “The students stepped up and started the Purple Crew. If we could we would like to present to every school.”

Dangers of smoking while driving are many Using a cell phone, texting and drinking alcoholic beverages are all activities that can lead to fines or arrest if done while in a moving vehicle.

But in some areas, it is already illegal or may soon be, to smoke in a vehicle if in the presence of children.

Since 2006, several communities across North America have implemented laws to prevent smoking in cars when children are present, and campaigns for smoke-free car laws are poised to continue.

The public has become increasingly aware that there is no safe level of exposure to secondhand smoke. Secondhand smoke, also known as environmental tobacco smoke, includes the smoke that a smoker exhales and the smoke that comes from burning tobacco products. Thousands of toxic chemicals are present in secondhand smoke, including formaldehyde, lead, butane, cyanide, and carbon monoxide. These dangerous chemicals can be inhaled and tend to linger in the air for hours or longer. Smoke residue also clings to a smoker’s body and hair and can even surface inside of

a home or vehicle, according to The Mayo Clinic.

Asthma, heart disease and cancer may result from contact with secondhand smoke. When someone smokes within the small enclosed space of a car, passengers are exposed to air that is many times more toxic than what the EPA considers hazardous air quality, even if a window is down. What’s more, the particulates of tobacco smoke that are absorbed in the upholstery off-gas back into the air even after many days have passed, exposing riders to toxins well beyond when someone smoked in the car.

The developing bodies of children and their small stature put youngsters at risk for greater complications from cigarette smoke, although any passenger is at risk.

Laws vary depending on location and typically apply to children ages 16 and under. Smokers are urged to quit smoking for their health and the health of others. But those who continue to smoke should refrain from smoking when inside a vehicle, especially when children are present.

Heat: a car battery’s worst enemy a problem before it occurs. Check that the sides of the battery aren’t swollen, which would be an indication of ageing or overcharging. Ensure that no debris or moisture has accumulated between the terminals, as either could divert the electrical curHeat causes the rent and drain the battery. liquids in a battery Keep an eye on the posito evaporate. tive terminal as well, where an accumulation of sulfate could indicate an internal problem.

In general, a car battery should give optimal output for four or five years.

Intense heat and overcharging are two factors that can substantially reduce the life of a battery. Heat causes the liquids contained in the battery to evaporate, which in turn causes damage to its internal structure.

Heat also has an accelerating effect on the chemical reactions required for batteries to function, which means the batteries produce more power at a higher temperature. On the other hand, overcharging is often the result of a poorly functioning voltage regulator.

You can, of course, have your battery checked by a professional in order to ensure that it is in good working order.

However, a simple do-it-yourself test can save you a trip to the garage. The first step is to use a multimeter to check if the charge is at the right level — it should be between 12.5 and 12.7 volts at rest and between 14 and 14.7 volts when functioning. Your battery will have to be replaced if there seems to be a problem.

Otherwise, a visual inspection could help you detect

Daytime visibility just as important as nighttime visibility Visibility is something many motorists take for granted, especially during the day, when sunlight tends to make drivers less cautious than they might be at night. But as the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration notes, more traffic accidents occur during daylight hours than at night, when headlights make vehicles more visible to other motorists and more pedestrians are walking around.

Though many drivers feel more comfortable during daylight hours, pedestrians and oncoming traffic are not always easy to see, especially when weather and road conditions are unfavorable. Fortunately, there are easy ways for drivers to improve their daytime visibility. * Install LED daytime running lights.

Being seen while driving in the daytime is just as essential for a driver’s safety as being able to see when driving at night.

Daytime running lights, or DRLs, are

ÌÞÊ -1

1 Ê - ,6 Ê ",Ê9"1,Ê ,>` >Ì ÀÊEÊ/ Ài 6

163 Perth St., Brockville

an effective way of improving visibility because they make the vehicle more detectable during daylight hours and dusk, when a motorist’s visibility is reduced. Studies have shown that DRLs reduce multiple-vehicle daytime accidents by as much as 11 percent, effectively preventing daytime headon and front-corner collisions by making it easier to see a vehicle, particularly as it approaches from far away.

Some cars have daytime running lights based off their headlamps. These are not very bright and can ultimately cause the lamps to wear out prematurely. Philips LED DayLight DRLs are equipped with high-powered LUXEON(R) LEDs that project a powerful, bright white light and a wide beam, making a vehicle more visible to fellow motorists as well as pedestrians. In addition, the Philips LED DRLs allow drivers to switch from using their standard headlights to an LED light source during the daytime, extending the life of the headlights while drawing less power from the vehicle. * Routinely check windshield washer fluid.

Some vehicles have just one reservoir for windshield washer fluid, while others equipped with a rear wiper typically have two. Locate these reservoirs and make sure there is an adequate amount of fluid in each, especially during the winter and early spring months when snow and debris such as sand or salt from the roadways can accumulate on the windshield and make it difficult to see. If the reservoir is empty, but you are out of windshield washer fluid, do not use water as a replacement, as

water can freeze and cause damage to the reservoir and hoses. * Inspect wipers and replace the blades if they are sacrificing visibility. Old or worn out wiper blades can also negatively impact visibility. Ford Motor Company recommends drivers inspect their vehicle’s wiper blades at least once every six months or as soon as they fail to clear your windshield completely or leave streaks. Older vehicles with pitting on the windshield tend to be harder on wiper blades, so drivers who have cars with some extra years under their belt should inspect their blades more frequently. * Clean interior glass and mirrors. Interior glass can suffer from film buildup that can reduce a driver’s vision, especially during daytime hours when such buildup can create a hazy reflection from the sun. This film can be especially thick in cars where drivers or their passengers routinely smoke.

In addition to cleaning the interior glass, keep the rearview and side mirrors clean and properly adjusted so your vision is not compromised while driving. Drivers should be able to see all of the views around the back of the car, especially the blind spots along both sides of the vehicle. When cleaning or adjusting the rearview mirror, remove any trinkets or other items hanging from the mirror. Such items might add some personality or aesthetic appeal, but they can also prove a significant distraction and make it difficult for drivers to see the road.

Technology definitely has its bright and dark sides. The bright side is that in the automotive world, technology has helped car manufacturers design and build safer and more fuel efficient vehicles. The dark side is that many motorists do not understand all these new technologies; sometimes, it seems like too much to absorb.

Take, for instance, the automatic transmission. These days, fewer and fewer cars are offered with a standard shift transmission. Even high-end and very sophisticated exotic cars are delivered with some kind of automatic transmission. That is likely because there are now many types of automatic transmissions to choose from, depending on the manufacturer.

The good old regular automatic transmission is still the most popular choice in North America. But instead of relying upon two, three, or even four speeds, today’s automatics can have anywhere from six to eight speeds. Some manufacturers are even offering nine-speed automatic transmissions, while others are working

on ten-speed versions for their light trucks.

HIGH-TECH Another type of transmission gaining in popularity is the so-called CVT, which stands for continuously variable transmission. This type of transmission is usually offered with light to moderately powerful engines and does not use regular gears to function. Instead, a steel belt connects two sets of plates that direct the engine’s power to the wheels. They provide seamless power, all while improving fuel economy.

Most motorists will never notice the difference between automatics with gears and CVTs. Lastly, some manufacturers are offering dual-clutch transmissions. These work a little like an automatic gear box with the option of manual shifting. This type of transmission also operates seamlessly and is very fuel efficient.

So, the type of transmission you choose mostly depends on the model of vehicle you’re shopping for. All three are reliable, efficient, and discreet. You might never even notice how they work!

Charities often benefit significantly from the generosity of donors and volunteers. But the person providing the philanthropy also takes away something from the experience, and there actually may be measurable emotional advantages to being charitable.

Helping others not only makes a person feel good, but it may also increase physical and emotional well-being.

Several studies have indicated that being generous has profound effects on how a person thinks and feels. One such study from researchers at Cornell University uncovered that volunteering increases one’s energy, sense of mastery over life and self-esteem. It also promotes feelings of positivity, which may strengthen and enhance the immune system.

In 2008, Dr. Ellen Langer, a professor of psychology at Harvard University, advocated for giving gifts and being Special Olympics Brockville and Area Athletes Would like to say “Thank You” to all the Coaches and Volunteers who helped them be successful.

“Let me win. But if I cannot win, let me be brave in the attempt.”

generous -- even in tough financial times.

“When you give a gift it makes you feel generous, it makes you feel in control, it’s good for your self-esteem, and it’s good for the relationship,” says Langer.

According to psychologist Robert Ornstein and physician David Sobel, authors of “Healthy Pleasures,” they talk about a “helper’s high.” This is a sense of euphoria that volunteers experience when helping others. It can be described as a sense of vitality and a warm glow. It has been compared to a runner’s high and may be attributed to a release of endorphins.

Various studies have found that donors and volunteers gain the most from a charitable encounter.

NATIONAL VOLUNTEER WEEK APRIL 6 TO 12, 2014

How to find the right volunteering opportunity

Millions of people volunteer every year. Some parents may volunteer to coach their children’s athletic teams, while other volunteers work with nonprofit organizations in need of assistance to help turn their mission statements into reality.

Though many people may spend a lifetime volunteering with the same organization, many others find their initial foray into volunteering does not meet their expectations, and such volunteers might walk away in search of another organization or opportunity. Because the turnover rate of volunteers can be so significant, many charities, in particular those that work with children, ask volunteers to make a minimum commitment before coming on board.

But the reason many volunteers walk away from a volunteering opportunity has little to do with time and more to do with finding a volunteering opportunity that’s right for them. The right opportunity differs for everyone, and men and women who want to give back to their communities can ask themselves a series of questions in an effort to find a volunteering opportunity that best suits them.

What causes am I passionate about?

A cause you are passionate about is often a great place to start when you search for a volunteering opportunity.

For example, people with a love of animals may find that working with a nearby animal shelter, whether it’s working at the shelter or fostering animals in need of temporary homes, is a great way to give back. Sports fans

and athletes whose playing days are largely behind them may want to volunteer with their local youth leagues or coach at a nearby school. When you are passionate about a cause, you will likely be passionate about volunteering to advance that cause.

What do I want to do?

What you want to do while volunteering is another factor to consider. Men and women who work in an office all week may want to get outdoors on the weekends, so volunteering opportunities with the local park system might be an ideal fit.

It’s also important to determine what you don’t want to do. Some people are uncomfortable asking others for money, so such men and women should avoid volunteering positions that focus on fundraising. If a volunteering opportunity involves activities you don’t enjoy, you’re less likely to stick with it.

How much time do I have to volunteer?

It’s not a crime to have a hectic schedule. Prospective volunteers whose time is already stretched thin may want to avoid ongoing volunteer opportunities that require significant time commitments. Such people might be more suited to one-time projects

or those opportunities that allow volunteers to decide at the last minute if they will attend. Honestly assess your schedule to determine how much time you have to devote to volunteering before choosing an activity.

Volunteers touch the heart and lift the spirits of many at Community Living.

The OPP current costing model that determines how much a municipality pays for its service has created confusion and concerns around the province for those who are now under contract with the OPP. This has caused the OPP to revisit the model.

Many municipalities continue to be very vocal about their limited ability to control or influence costs and services under an OPP contract. It’s been frustrating for communities who are being told it is out of their control and that negotiations are not possible.

The above concerns do not include one time transition costs when moving from a municipal police force to the OPP that would include severance packages to the current city officers along with the required facility upgrades to meet provincial standards. Other communities are finding out those additional costs are a burden that will take years to recover.

Council should watch closely to see if budgets were met in Perth and Pembroke who recently signed on with the OPP. Under the current policing model, the Brockville Police Services Board and city council have control over budgets, servic-

es and personnel. With the OPP, the city would have no local input on how policing is handled.

That is why COPS is fighting to keep the city police force. It seems like the best option would be to keep the current city police force and work towards finding a local solution to rising costs. The Brockville Police Services Board is making meaningful efforts to find long-term efficiencies and savings.

COPS encourages and supports those efforts. Local control equals local solutions. Accountability should be local and local citizens should maintain absolute oversight of their police services.

COPS believes that the city police force is the best decision for Brockville.

The committee is going to do its best to spread that word to council and to the taxpayers. We encourage citizens to become knowledgeable on this issue as it will be important for our community moving forward.

Anyone interested in contacting COPS can do so at copsbrockville@gmail.com.

lice force over the uncertainty of change – financial and services – to the OPP. COPS also emphasizes that it does not support the status quo of rising policing costs for the current city force. Policing costs have to be adjusted to reflect the ability of the community to pay for the service. Changes have to be made to ensure a sustainable service for the future.

Other municipalities in the province made the switch from a local police force to the OPP and have been struggling with skyrocketing OPP costs, along with a lack of control in how their community is actually policed.

News - The municipality of Brockville has a right to be deeply concerned over the future of policing costs.

That’s why Citizens Offering Police Support (COPS) is urging city council to look at all the details and think long and hard before pondering any switch from the municipal force to the Ontario Provincial Police.

COPS was created in the fall of 2012 when Brockville council indicated it was beginning a process to seek a costing from the OPP which potentially could result in the replacement of the 182-year-old city police department – the oldest police ser-

Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re NUT Givinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Up campaign raises $106,125 so far News â&#x20AC;&#x201C; A private campaign to raise funds for a St. Lawrence Secondary School teacher suffering from a rare form of cancer has secured more than $106,000 in less than two months, reaching their first benchmark goal of $100,000.

The Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re NUT Givinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Up campaign has caught fire, generating media interest from CTV and CBC, and garnering support through literally dozens of fundraising events planned to benefit Stephanie Grady, a teacher suffering from NUT midline carcinoma, an aggressive cancer that has spread to her hips, pelvis, and spine. In order to provide the opportunity for Grady to participate in a clinical drug trial at a cancer institute in Boston, supporters have organized events ranging from online and silent auctions to athletic events and tournaments, as well as breakfasts, brunches and dinners. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s incredibly overwhelming,â&#x20AC;? said campaign spokesperson Heather Lisney,

of the success so far. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s inspiring and very humbling.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Stephanie and her family are so thankful for all of the kindness and generosity shown by friends, family, colleagues and students; and also complete strangers who have been â&#x20AC;&#x153;digginâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; deepâ&#x20AC;? to help her. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a significant relief for the family knowing they can now access these funds to help with the cost of care in Boston. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s also giving hope and providing emotional support.â&#x20AC;?

Fundraising successes so far have included: Moose Creek 4-on-4 Hockey Tournament, $28,000; Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re NUT Givinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Up online donation campaign, $37,000; Rothwell-Osnabruck School online auction, $8,900; church and community donations $15,000; and roast beef/spaghetti dinners, $7,500. In addition, many more school and student initiatives are taking place, and individuals are also fundraising through small business ventures. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There are still many future events

planned all in support of the Grady family,â&#x20AC;? said Lisney. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Due to the nature of clinical trials, and the rarity of this cancer, exact costs are impossible to determine. Medical expenses can vary significantly depending on length of stay in hospital and the subsequent number of treatments, scans and tests required to treat this disease. In addition, the Grady family will also be required to travel to Boston once a week to receive treatment for six months, possibly longer. As such, we donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to stop. We want to ensure the expenses are fully covered and that the Grady family is supported and secure during this fight. In addition, we want to continue to raise awareness.

One of Stephanieâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s biggest challenges is the lack of answers due to the limited knowledge resulting from the rare nature of this disease.â&#x20AC;?

Following countless treatments and surgeries after an initial diagnosis of lung cancer, doctors in Ottawa offered

SUPPORT SMALL BUSINESS

palliative radiation for Grady to help ease her pain, declaring her condition incurable. Grady and her friends were not ready to give up. Friends, family, teachers and other volunteers have united as â&#x20AC;&#x153;Team Gradyâ&#x20AC;? to create the fundraising campaign to help the 32-year-old teacher. The goal is to continue to raise funds to send the Long Sault resident for experimental treatments at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute in Boston. Harvard researchers at the International NUT Midline Carcinoma Registry are using a new drug called BET Inhibitor that has been shown to shrink, and even stop, NUT midline tumour growth in human tissue. The first clinical trial began last month in various centres in the United States. Grady is now eligible to receive a series of drug trial treatments at DanaFarber for six months starting in May. Preliminary testing is scheduled for the end of April.

Upcoming fundraising events designed to help her family cover the treatments include: â&#x20AC;˘ Major raffle featuring an NHL escape package (tickets available from Rothwell-Osnabruck School, the Upper Canada District School Board, and Brockville Collegiate Institute).

â&#x20AC;˘ Finch Hockey Tournament: April 11-13. â&#x20AC;˘ East-Side Marioâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s (Cornwall) Silent Auction and Kickback: April 25. â&#x20AC;˘ Keystorm (Brockville) Benefit PubNight Social: April 26. â&#x20AC;˘ A five-kilometre staff/student and community race in Cornwall: May 4. â&#x20AC;˘ Mom-to-Mom Sale at Brockville Collegiate Institute: May 10. â&#x20AC;˘ Even more events can be found under the calendar at www.gradyfund.com Currently Grady is undergoing chemotherapy at the Winchester District Memorial Hospital, to slow the progression of the disease so she can be comfortable until her treatments in Boston.

The mother of three will participate in the trial by receiving high-level doses of the drug to combat the disease.

While supporters are hoping that the trials will help Grady in her battle, their success could help bring hope to many others fighting cancer. If you are interested in contributing to this cause by providing support and security to the Grady family, donations are welcome at www.gradyfund.com, or at any Scotiabank Branch under, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Stephanie Grady Cancer Treatment Fundâ&#x20AC;?, acct # 00232 00666 13.

Loblaws teams up with the Canadian Cancer Society to sell live daffodils in Ontario News – Hearing the words “you have cancer” profoundly alters a person’s life.

Last year, the lives of more than 187,000 Canadians changed when they were diagnosed with the disease. It’s for this reason, every April the Canadian Cancer Society raises funds and awareness by asking Canadians to support its Daffodil Month campaign.

This year, the Society kicks-off Daffodil Month by announcing that Loblaw Companies Limited (Loblaw) will sell live daffodils on behalf of the charity as its official retail partner in Ontario.

In 2014, through this partnership, more than 200,000 daffodil bunches or one

million plus blooms will be sold exclusively at Loblaws, Zehrs, Valu-mart, Real Canadian Superstore and Your Independent Grocer stores across the province.

“The daffodil symbolizes strength and courage in the fight against cancer.

Through this partnership, Loblaw and its more than 60,000 employees in Ontario are proud to support the Canadian Cancer Society and people living with cancer,” says Peggy Hornell, senior director of Community Investment for Loblaw. “We encourage people to add a bunch of daffodils to their grocery list this April.”

Throughout the month of April, live daffodils will be sold for $4.99 a bunch and each bunch will also include a daffodil pin. For every bunch of daffodils sold, $2 will be donated to the society.

Across the province $400,000 is expected to be raised through the sale of these blooms.

“We are thrilled to partner with Loblaw for Daffodil Month. Thanks to their generous support, the Canadian Cancer Society’s beloved spring tradition of selling live daffodils returns in 2014,” says Martin Kabat, CEO for the Canadian Cancer Society in Ontario.

“This partnership will allow us to raise vital funds for things such as providing programs and services to people living with cancer and their families,” he adds.

As Canada’s leading cancer charity, the Canadian Cancer Society fights more than 200 different types of cancer on numerous fronts, including offering information and support services that are proven to decrease stress and anxiety in patients and family caregivers. Many of the society’s services are free and help is available in more than 100 languages. Last year, 25,000 people had their cancer questions answered and 13,800 patients were driven to cancer treatment in Ontario. Every donation made during Daffodil Month helps the society provide these services.

During April, the need for continued support grows with each passing day.

The number of new cancer cases continues to rise steadily as the population grows and ages. This April, the Canadi-

an Cancer Society asks people to show their support for those living with the disease: Donate can be made online at cancer. ca.

About Daffodil Month Daffodil Month is a national fundraising campaign of the Canadian Cancer Society. During April, Society volunteers are involved in numerous activities to raise vital funds for the fight against cancer. In 2013 more than 18,500 volunteers raised $4.3 million in Ontario.

The Canadian Cancer Society is a national, community-based organization of volunteers whose mission is to eradicate cancer and enhance the quality of life of people living with cancer.

Iroquois Public School inspires culture of creativity and accountability, report says News – Staff members at Iroquois Public School (IPS) have created a culture of creativity and accountability that has generated improved literacy scores in provincial testing, particularly in Grade 3 writing, says a special report presented to the Upper Canada District School Board of trustees recently.

“Iroquois Public is a school that ensures a constant and continuous school-wide focus on student learning, student engagement and student wellness,” said superintendent Victoria Hemming. “Iroquois is a school striving to raise the bar but also to close the gap.”

The report shows that 87 per cent of Grade 3 students are achieving level three or higher in standardized provincial writing tests. Grade 3 math scores have declined slightly.

“We are pleased though that our EQAO scores are increasing

in almost all areas,” said principal Kelty Grant. “We will continue to focus on moving students in level 2 to level 3 and more students at level 3 to level 4.”

Teachers at IPS have also made professional learning the cultural norm through the use of HUBS, mini-hubs and professional learning communities to increase learning and student engagement.

The school culture is one of inclusion, care and positive relationships. Students are well supported at the school and they feel safe and cared for by the adults who teach them. Character education is embedded in the curriculum and is celebrated through character assemblies, said Hemming. Students feel supported emotionally and socially, and a high value is placed on character, wellness and providing students with many activities that support their growth and development.

Pet of the week JK was found as a frail, little kitten all alone in the world. Her health and personality blossomed in foster care, and now JK is back at the shelter looking for a “fur-ever” home.

Please visit JK and all of the other wonderful cats and kittens at the Gananoque & District Humane Society. The shelter is located at 85 Hwy. 32 or please call 613-382-1512.

There is a strong connection between the school and the community, including through an active group of volunteers at IPS. Teachers communicate with parents face-to-face or by phone a minimum of three times per year.

Monthly calendars and newsletters are also used to keep parents informed.

Perhaps the most progress in communication at IPS has been through social media, said Grant.

Facebook has been a driving force in bringing the community into the school and sharing the school’s day-to-day experience.

Parents send messages to the school about absences and other issues.

It also keeps the community aware of what is happening at the school and inspires people to volunteer at IPS.

Sports – The Gananoque Curling Club offers “Seniors Curling” every Monday, Wednesday and Friday from 1-3 p.m. Members of the curling club need not call ahead or pre-register, but simply arrive on the days they are able to play and teams are organized just before play begins. A great way to get out and get some exercise all the while having fun with friends. As an added bonus, many curlers now use poles called ‘crutches’ to push the rocks rather than kneeling which enables more people the opportunity to play. From left, Jack Petch, Sandy Whittley, Heather Cross and Melvyn Worth are all smiles as they enjoy their day recently.

NEWS

Connected to your community

Opportunities abound at CPHC: Volunteer interest has been high

By MARLA DOWDALL mdowdall@perfprint.ca

Photo by MARLA DOWDALL

Barry Keicks, of Zink Calls, is seen here with a turkey and Canada Goose decoy, March 29. The Grenville Fish & Game Club held a Gun and Sportsman Show in Prescott. Over the weekend, the club featured three buildings full of vendors, duck and goose calling competitions, as well as draws, food and more.

News - Community and Primary Health Care has been astonished at the number of people willing to give of their time and volunteer.

Approximately six weeks ago, CPHC brought in a volunteer manager. “It’s amazing the number of people signed up,” Ruth Kitson, executive director for the CPHC explained of those interested in volunteering.

“I have at least two people coming into my office inquiring about volunteering every day,” Lesley Renwick, volunteer manager, said. Requests have been coming in via email and by phone, “I have been very busy.”

One particular project she is working on is creating a fundraising volunteer committee, “to brainstorm different fundraising activities,” she said.

For those interested, there are many programs and opportunities to volunteer with CPHC. “We do have a lot of programs that are in high need,” for volunteers, she noted. Including the foot care program, transportation in all areas, Lifeline, and

others.

Volunteer opportunities also exist with the Adult Day Service - including light kitchen duties, visiting with the clients and other activities.

An advisory committee of volunteers exists, whereby “Volunteers meet with CPHC staff about current or proposed programs. Committee members encompass community partners (health organizations) and CPHC volunteers,” noted material provided by Renwick.

Help is also being sought for Diners’ Clubs - monthly luncheons - duties might include set up, food preparation and more. With foot care clinics, volunteers aid with reception duties.

Friendly Visiting - volunteers are needed to “On a regular basis you make a commitment to spend an hour visiting a client,” the materials read. Each visit can be different and involve activities such as sharing stories, taking a drive and more.

For the Duet: Enhanced Friendly Visiting program volunteers are teamed with both a caregiver and a client, but the premise of the program is the same.

Fund development volunteers should

have an interest in “Meeting people, planning events, or just providing valuable insight into developing fundraising opportunities.”

Lifeline, as mentioned previously, is in high need for volunteers. Those giving their time to the program both install and service the equipment for Lifeline.

It is also noted that there is teaching and ongoing training and support.

A popular program - Meals on Wheels volunteers aid in the delivery of meals.

General tasks such as office support as well as help at special events, transportation, are all jobs which CPHC needs volunteers to help with.

Volunteer instructors are also needed for a seniors’ fitness class, as well as telephone reassurance. CPHC telephone reassurance volunteers, “Make a commitment to call a client on a regular basis just to see how they are.”

For information on any of the above volunteer opportunities or to express interest please contact Renwick at 613-342-3693 ext. 2030, or 1-800-465-7646 ext. 2030 (if long distance to Brockville) or email lrenwick@ cphcare.ca.

Happy Birthday Gerald on April 3rd from your family and friends

MCGOVERN, James â&#x20AC;&#x201C; In loving memory of a dear husband, father and grandfather who passed away April 6, 2012 Nothing can ever take away The love a heart holds dear, Fond memories linger every day, Remembrance keeps him near.

His smiling way and pleasant face Are a pleasure to recall, He had a kindly word for each And died beloved by all.

Some day we hope to meet him, Some day, we know not when, To clasp his hand in the better land, Never to part again.

Sadly missed, lovingly remembered by Sharron, Marcia and Brent, Taya, Jesse and Andrew

Sports - A newly created Brockville Womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Ball Hockey League is now taking registrations.

Registration dates are April 16 and 24 from 6-7:30 p.m. at the Brockville Youth Arena.

Behind this venture is Adelle LĂŠonard. While living in her previous hometown of Lâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Orignal she took part in a womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ball hockey league in Alexandria for three consecutive seasons. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I quickly grew a love for the sport, and was very disappointed when I moved to the local area and realized there were no womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ball-hockey

programs I could join,â&#x20AC;? she explained in an email. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In conversation with my ice hockey teammates, I brought up the topic and was surprised by the amount of girls that would be interested in playing.â&#x20AC;?

It was this conversation that sparked her idea to start up a womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ball hockey league in this area. Her father has been a great help so far, and they are currently in the final stages of getting this league going. For further information please visit one of the registration dates listed above, and please watch future issues of the St. Lawrence News EMC for more details.

Groups, duos and solos performed to perfection as the clubâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s skaters showed their skills and agility moving swiftly around the ice.

Blackhawks edge Gryphons 3-2 to close season on winning note Sports - Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been 20 years since the Island City Blackhawks recorded 25 wins in a season. Back in 1994-95, then known as the Booze Guns, they accumulated 25 wins after recording a team record of 30 the previous season.

Last Saturday night in front of a modest gathering at the â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Barn on Broadwayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; they got their 25th when the Blackhawks won over the Gananoque Gryphons 3-2 in a wide open fast-paced game.

Both â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;captains of the cable cabanasâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Spencer Utman of the Blackhawks and Tim Tenet of the Gryphons were engaged in a goaltendersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; duel. They were both outstanding in this game frustrating opposing shooters all night long. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Some of the fans we talked to after the game said it was one of the most entertaining games theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve seen us in in and he wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t kidding. Both goalies quite a while. Harry told me he beefed seemed unbeatable,â&#x20AC;? Blackhawk manup his Gryphons line up for this game agement said.

The Rookieâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Jordy Whiteland opened the scoring for the Hawks midway through the first with his 20th to give the home team a 1-0 lead.

In the second period â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;The Velvet Fogâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Rob Carter increased the Blackhawks lead to 2-0 by scoring his team leading 37th of the year. The Gryphons replied when one of their forwards beat Utman to a loose puck to narrow the gap to 2-1.

With the Hawks up 2-1 heading into the third period, they felt that that lead should have been a lot bigger, one player had more than his share of glorious scoring chances only to come up empty. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Johnny Ryan had enough chances out there to score at least two hat tricks,â&#x20AC;? grinned Blackhawk stalwart defenceman Chris â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Cavieâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Cavanagh. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Oh yeah both J R and Robbie had

Freeze Your Buns series lives up to its name, comes to an end for 2014 Sports - The final race in the Brockville Road Runnersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Freeze Your Buns series lived up to its name when a heavy snowfall came making the sidewalks and roads slippery under foot. Despite the offsetting conditions, participants made the most of the event with those competing in all three races earning a long sleeve technical shirt.

The event took place on Saturday, March 22 starting from the Memorial Center.

The 1 km event was won by Alyshia Alkerton in a personal best time of 4:06. The first boy in was Matthew White in a close time of 4:08.

Alyshia was the top overall female in the 1 km series and Matthew Shaver was the top overall male. The 5 km event was one by Eric Wynands in a time of 17:21. He also took the series as top overall male. The top female was Brittany Alkerton in a time of 21:09. Brittany was the overall female series winner for the 5 km. The next event sponsored by the Brockville Road Runners is a joint event run with the YMCA on May 4, the California Run. Race results: 1 Km event: Alyshia Alkerton 4:06, Matthew White 4:08, Paige Reimann 5:05, Shyla Jones 5:06, Matthew Shaver 5:29, Shin Bourne 5:30, Tiana McMullen 5:58, Bennet Armstrong 6:14:12, Asia Bourne 6:14:34, Abby White 6:35, Anna Ladd 7:47, Logan Harper 7:52, Ellitoo Ladd 9:05.

some really good looks but their goalie Tenet denied them time and time again.

Robbie eventually got one by him.

Ryan scored four goals on Tenet the last time we played them, he came up empty tonight. Hey we got the win and thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s all that matters,â&#x20AC;? management pointed out.

Trevor â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;The Silencerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Murrayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 12th goal of the year put the home town Hawks up 3-1 midway through the third period. In the end that insurance marker at the time was the eventual game winner.

The â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;My Generation Lineâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; was given the task of preserving the two-goal lead with just over a minute to go, last time they had this opportunity a couple of games ago, they surrendered the game tying goal to the Winchester Centennials late in the game.

The Gryphons closed the gap to one

with only 26 ticks left on the clock.

Well, off the ensuing face off the Gryphons came close again when they just failed to convert on a three on two in the dying seconds. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We thought about making a line change there but we didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t and it nearly cost us again. This lineâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s strength is their tenacious forechecking and tireless work ethic in the oppositionâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s end. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s unfortunate because these guys work so hard, they just get running around at times in our own end. Every one of those guys are real gamers, this is something theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll probably address next season,â&#x20AC;? management explained about the teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s second highest scoring line.

The win gives the Blackhawks a 25-7-4 record for the season which included a very impressive 15-2-2 road record and a respectable 10-5-2 home record.
