Free program helps families integrate into Ontario school system DURHAM -- Since the first few years in Canada can be partic- ularly difficult for newcomer students and their families, a free program will take place Aug. 29 to help them out. Settlement Workers in Schools Durham is offering a program to help ease the stress for newcomer families integrating into the Ontario school system at three different locations: Lincoln Alex- ander Public School, 95 Church St. N., Ajax; Whitby Shores Pub- lic School, 485 Whitby Shores Greenway, Whitby; and, St. Berna- dette Catholic School, 41 Bayly St. E., Ajax. The program will give families a half-day orientation to life in Ontario schools and introduce them to the people and services that can help them settle into their new school. It will run from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. The interactive program will provide families with basic intro- duction to school procedures, as well as an opportunity for par- ents to meet school settlement workers and staff. Families that have arrived in Canada in the last few months are eligible. Each site will offer programming for families of both the Durham Catholic District School Board and the Durham Dis- trict School Board. Registering in advance is encouraged, but drop-ins are welcome.

Play Works, the Ontario Partnership for Active Youth, acknowledges communities with Youth Friendly Commu- nity Builder status for going above and beyond to ensure youth aged 13 to 19 have con- tinuous access to a diversity of play. Play includes every- thing from sports, recreation, music, dance, drama and arts to volunteerism, leadership development, service devel- opment and civic engage- ment. “It’s really important to engage young people,” said Marisa Carpino, supervisor, culture and recreation for Pickering. “Engagement doesn’t just happen in families or in schools, the community has to be involved. We’re very proud to offer weekly pro- gramming all year at no cost. We’re thrilled to offer youth the opportunity to come in, develop skills they enjoy and feel a connection to a com- munity that’s broader than just them and their friends.” The commitment to youth throughout the community is long-standing, as Pickering was one of the first commu- nities to be recognized for its youth initiatives by Play Works in 2005. This year, the City partnered with a large number of community- based youth organizations to create an award applica- tion that encompassed all the youth opportunities in the community.

Butterfly release celebrates city’s bicentennial Moya Dillon mdillon@durhamregion.com PICKERING -- A new garden designed to attract pollinators such as bees and butter- flies will play host to 200 monarchs as part of Pickering’s Bicentennial Butterfly Festi- val. The new pollinator garden will be locat- ed in Pickering’s Alex Robertson Park and is designed to attract pollinator insects and raise awareness about native plants and pollinators. Residents are invited to come out and help plant the new garden during the Butterfly Festi- val on Saturday, Sept. 10. “A lot of people don’t real- ize that there are many native pollinators beyond honey- bees and butterflies,” said Margo Sloan, biodiversity program co-ordinator for OPG. “This is a way to tell people if they have native plants, and plants with woody stems, that can benefit pollinators and in turn benefit their gardens.” The new garden will contain all native plant species and use no chemical pesti- cides or fertilizers. Ms. Sloan said she hopes the project will show residents that natural can also be beautiful. “That’s something we’ve been building on for some time and trying to educate the public about,” Ms. Sloan said of going pesti- cide-free. “We want to stress respect for the envi- ronment and encourage people to go with native and natural plants so they know that can also make a beautiful garden. We also want them to see a garden doesn’t have to be perfectly maintained and full of chemi- cals and fertilizers. It can be wild and still be beautiful.” Residents on hand for the planting can also enjoy fun activities including monarch butterfly tagging, creat- ing a bee habitat, polli- nator crafts, and a perfor- mance by storyteller Kim Wheatley from Shawanaga First Nation Reserve. After the planting, organizers will release 200 monarch but- terflies in the garden to cel- ebrate Pickering’s bicenten- nial. “We wanted to do something different to celebrate the occasion,” said Michelle Pearce, co-ordinator of environ- mental programs for the City of Pickering. “This seemed like the perfect opportuni- ty for families and individuals to come out and get involved, learn about pollinators, participate in different activities and mark Pickering’s bicentennial.” The Bicentennial Butterfly Festival, hosted by Environmental Stewardship Pickering, will be held Saturday, Sept. 10 from noon to 2 p.m. at Alex Robertson Park on Sandy Beach Road in Pickering. The event will kick off at noon with planting and activities, followed by the butterfly release around 2 p.m. Dental Care forAdults,Kids and Great Big Babies. • A Full Range of Dental Tr eatments - Bring the whole family. •Saturday &Evening Appointments - To serve you better. •Flexible Payment Options - Helping you get the treatment you want. • A Relaxing Atmosphere - Vi rtual vision glasses, stereo headphones to help ensure you have a pleasant visit.

As an 18 year old, I am extremely disap- pointed to learn of Fernie House’s deci- sion to move its residents from the Rose- bank Road location due to my communi- ty’s lack of support in accepting the Youth in Conflict Program at Fernie House. Fernie House/Children’s Aid Society has been in the Rosebank community since the early 1970s and as far as I know, there has been no questionable activity attribut- ed to residents of Fernie House, which has housed troubled youth when needed since 2000. How are we supposed to rehabilitate these teenagers? We cannot presume that teenage crime predicts adult behaviour, as most teenagers often lack good judgment and self-control. They do not always foresee the conse- quences of their actions. Just look around the neighbourood. The teenagers of any neighbourhood are not exemplary. It is not uncommon to see such things as minor vandalism in the south Rosebank neighbourhood. Fernie House promotes guidance and direction for these youths in a non-judg- mental atmosphere. I am sad to learn of their decision to relocate and cease opera- tions because of a few dissenting residents who have the “not in my backyard” mental- ity. What happened to “it takes a village to raise a child?” This is not the inclusive community I have grown up in. Fernie house preceded many developments and residents of the community and now they are reacting to public pressure. I would like to ask everyone reading this: what if this was your child? According to Fernie House, these are not sexual offenders, just teens who have run into trouble with the law in some other way. We are failing them as a community by not supporting the Fernie House program. Zach Henderson Pickering FeedbaCk More study needed on ‘natural’ burial sites To the editor: Re: ‘Going green: a look at Ontario’s only natural burial site’ news, durhamregion. com, Aug. 17, 2011. This article describes a perfect “green picture” of the natural burial cemetery, but this is only the tip of the iceberg. Let’s have a look at what is lying “below the water”. At the moment there is no clear scientific evidence that natural burials are “green and environmentally friendly”. Some funeral practitioners say that embalming is a vital step in preventing the spread of disease. Given that natural buri- al is a relatively new practice that has not been extensively studied, there is insuffi- cient evidence to make any recommenda- tions in either direction. This article describes Cobourg’s natu- ral burial site which is part of an existing, established, zoned and licensed cemetery. On the other hand, Ajax’s proposed site is a part of a golf course inside the greenbelt zone. Will The Town of Ajax go through the process of rezoning and changing existing plans to accommodate a potentially dan- gerous venture in the greenbelt? Can the Town of Ajax be entrusted to protect this vulnerable and vital land? Jurij Gubarev AjaxeleCtion Make your voice heard To the editor: Here we go again. We are having a provincial election, and this one is just as important, if not more so, than the federal one. I am writing this letter to beg everyone to put their voice in and vote. Be heard. Most students do not vote and it is a shame because a provincial election can affect them right in the pock- etbook. If officials set up a voting booth in the col- lege or the university, we would then have a better turnout. I just hope that we have a much better turnout than the federal election, which was very dismal. Ron Horner Oshawa & A Metroland Media Group Ltd.

In the depths of a life in turmoil, a man takes his own life in a public park. On a sunny sum- mer weekend, a motorcycle rider collides with a car, bringing to a sudden end anoth- er life. In the aftermath, family members and close friends are left to deal with the chaos of emotion, the life-changing circum- stance, and a future without someone spe- cial in their lives. This has been a difficult summer for fam- ilies in Durham Region confronted with the consequences of violence, the tragedy of death on our highways, the loss of some- one who chose to end their own suffering for reasons known only to them. That’s where the good work of Victim Services of Durham Region can help sur- viving families members work through the transition, provide timely and vital moral and social support, and set them on a path to recovery, acceptance and, ultimately, renewed growth. Victims Services volunteers can lend a simple shoulder to cry on, but are also responsible for connecting traumatized victims to appropriate agencies and servic- es. That can manifest itself in everything from helping surviving victims to make funeral arrangements, to direct counsel- ling or even a locksmith to secure a home following a burglary. Many residents remain unaware of the existence of Victim Services, something the organization is working diligently to change. And considering that the service’s volunteers provided assistance to 1,200 victims last year -- and attended some 200 crime scenes -- it’s clear that it has the resources and ability to soften the blow, provide clear-headed guidance, and nudge survivors back on track. It’s true that no one wants to be -- or expects to be -- faced with the sudden or violent death of a loved one. But it’s also true that fate often has other plans for some of us. In that context, Victim Servic- es of Durham Region provides a crucial service to those left suddenly behind, or alone, unsure of how they’ll cope. The organization is currently recruit- ing new volunteers with training sessions planned for January as it continues the effort to raise its profile and awareness among Durham Region residents. They could use someone just like you. Fate can change things in an instant. Vic- tim Services of Durham Region can help those touched by tragedy confront it, cope with it and begin the effort to reassemble their lives. durhamregion.comNews Advertiser • August 26, 20117 P NOW $496 SAVE $30 NOW $199.99 Samsung 24" Widescreen LED Monitor 1920x1080, 5ms(GtG) 5M:1(DCR), VGA, DVI MTSS001807 Model: S24A300B NOW $419.99 Visionary S1000KM Intel Core i3 2100 Prcoessor Intel HD 2000 Graphics with DVI Port 4GB DDR3 RAM, 1TB HDD Keyboard & Mouse OS not included RTGS001812 Gateway Multi-Touch 23" Full HD Touchscreen PC RTGA000335 Model: ZX6961-55C ASUS Eee Pad Transformer 10.1" Tablet with Docking Station and Keyboard BUND002528 / BUND00252916hr battery life with mobile docking SAVE $20 $659.99 Intel 510 Series 120GB 2.5" SATA Mainstream SSD SMIT000094 Read: 400MB/s Write: 210MB/s Intel Pentium E5700 2GB DDR3 RAM 320GB SATA HDD Windows 7 Professional Keyboard & Mouse *after $10IR + $40MIR SAVE $50* $249.99* Razer Deathadder Black 3.5G Infrared Gaming Mouse PERZ000340 SAVE $10 $44.99 Acer Veriton PC RTAC001600 Model:VM275-ED5700W Seagate Barracuda 500GB SATA3 16MB Cache (OEM) HDSG002084 $299.99 SAVE $5 $39.99 Razer Onza Tournament Edition Professional Gaming Controller GDRZ000028 19% OFF $44.99 Corsair Flash Voyager 16GB USB 3.0 Flash Drive SMCO000450 Patriot Sector 5 G Series 4GB DDR3 1600MHz Kit RAMP000979 *after $10IR+ $10MIR SAVE $20* $29.99* iCan Black Front HD Webcam WCIC000018 34% OFF $12.99 WD Elements SE 750GB 2.5" Portable External Hard Drive HDWD001359 copying (up to): 27 ppm printing (up to): 27 ppm 29ppm Mono 23ppm Color SAVE $20 $69.99 21% OFF $24.99 HP Photosmart D110A e All-in-One Printer PRHP001937 SAVE $20 $59.99 iCAN Desk-Top Paper Shredder OSSDIC0003 14% OFF $19.99 WD Elements Desktop 1.5TB External Hard Drive HDWD001356 SAVE $25 $79.99 Brother DCP-7065DN Multifunction Mono Laser Printer PRBR001158 SAVE $80 $99.99 32 In 1 Electron Screwdriver Tool Set CASS000018 42% OFF $5.99 0088.2266 -0099..0011..22001111 SAVE $200 NOW $599.99 HP Pavilion Intel Core i5 15.6" Entertainment Notebook 4GB RAM, 500GB HDD Webcam, eSATA, Dolby Audio Windows 7 Pro 64-bit LPHP001030 Model: dv6-3275ca blet 16GB NOW $596 32GB NOW $424.99 ASUS Eee Pad Transformer 10.1" Tablet with Protective Sleeve and Stand BUND002526 / BUND002527 16GB NOW $524.99 32GB (Refurbished) 6GB DDR3 RAM 1TB SATA HDD Keyboard&Mouse 5G Infrared Gamin External Hard Drive PRBR001158 Corsair Flash Voyag USB 3.0 Flash Drive RAMP000979 Sam Wi 192 5M MTSS iVi 001812RTGS0RTR WD001356 let Prices in effect from August 26 - September 01, 2011 while quantities last.

The centre currently provides a slew of services for youth aged 13 to 29, including functioning as a community health centre with nurse practitioners and doctors on hand. The centre also offers services to new mothers and their babies, conducts health promotion campaigns aimed at youth and has outreach work- ers to interact with at-risk youth. In the last fis- cal year, The Youth Centre had 3,835 clients and it worked with an additional 16,221 clients in group set- tings or community events. A satellite office will allow the centre to accommodate new clients in Pickering as well as freeing up resources for more clients in the Ajax office. “It’s a very necessary service and it’s growing as our community grows,” said Mr. Dickson. Susan Bland, The Youth Centre’s execu- tive director, explained that as it stands, about 64 per cent of clients come from Ajax and just slightly less than 30 per cent come from Pickering. The lower number of Pickering clients may be a geographic issue. “The big thing for us is we’ll be situated right in the community of Pickering and we’ll be accessible to the youth of that community,” said Ms. Bland. When The Youth Centre opened in 1995, the organization had just 10 staff members. Currently, there are 30 staff members with some of them work- ing off site because there’s simply not enough space. “We have the funding for more staff, but we just haven’t had a place to put them,” said Ms. Bland. In fact, Ms. Bland said that the Pickering site will likely be about 10,000 square feet, double the size of the Ajax site. “It will become kind of our new head office.” The Youth Centre is funded through the Province’s health care system through the Central East Local Health Integrated Net- work, except for the outreach program which is funded through the Ministry of Child and Youth Services. The intent to expand The Youth Cen- tre was first announced by the Province in 2005 and Mr. Dickson said it was a matter of juggling it with other priorities. He said the current minister of health and long- term care, Deb Matthews, was personally involved in making sure the project pro- ceeded. With this commitment, Mr. Dickson said the expansion is budgeted for regardless of who wins the election in October. 1-866-550-5462 Call the big thing for us is we’ll be situated right in the community of Pickering and we’ll be accessible to the youth of that community.

But, one of the best ways to experience our finest natural areas is by hitting the water in a canoe or kayak, and exploring Durham Region by paddle. If you don’t own a canoe or kayak, and have never tried paddling before, you’ll be happy to discover it is an inexpensive, convenient and easy activity for every age and fit- ness level. The Port Perry Marina, on Lake Scugog in downtown Port Perry, rents canoes, kayaks and paddle boats by the hour, half day and day. (It also rents fishing and pon- toon boats, if you have your boat- ing licence.) Rentals begin at $7 an hour, and the picturesque Lake Scugog shoreline is perfect for exploring. Because Lake Scugog is narrow and shallow, it is calmer than Durham Region’s bigger lakes, making it a safe bet for beginners. Visit www.portperrymarina.ca. Silverstone Paddle Company is located in Frenchman’s Bay Nauti- cal Village at the foot of Liverpool Road in Pickering. It is a well-shel- tered bay, protected from overly choppy waters, meaning this area is also a great place for beginners to try paddling. At Silverstone, you can rent a canoe or kayak for a couple of hours beginning at $20. As with Port Perry, Frenchman’s Bay is full of unique shops, galleries and res- taurants where you can relax after your adventure. Visit www.silver- stonepaddle.com. Before you hit the water, don’t forget to pack snacks, a lunch and lots of drinking water. Be sure you have life-jackets and other safety gear such as a bail bucket, rope and whistle. And remember to pack your camera in a sealed plastic bag. For more summer day trip ideas, visit us online at www.durham- tourism.ca or follow us on Twitter at @DurhamTourism. See you on the water.

Lawn arden Advertising FeatureG&Home, Making home improvements doesn't have to mean compromising environmental ideals in the process. There are numerous jobs that a person can do that fit with a green lifestyle. While these improvements help protect the planet, they'll also help keep a few extra dollars in your wallet. 1. Conserve water. Turn off the tap between brushing teeth or rinsing off dishes. Better yet, install low-flow faucets, showerheads and toilets that reduce the consumption of water in the household. 2. Motion detection: Motion-detector lights can be installed in different rooms of the home and outdoors. Lights will automatically turn on and off depending on the activ- ity in the area, reducing the chances of a light being left on inadvertently and wasting money and energy. 3. Solar panels: You may have been toying with the idea of solar panels for years. They can be installed on the roof or in the yard to power various components of the household, like lights during a traditional power outage or the swimming pool filter. Today it is pos- sible to buy used solar panels, many of which still have a lot of life left to them and are considerably cheaper than new ones. 4. Aluminum-clad storm door: Insulate the entryway of your home with a storm door that will buffer against harsh weather conditions. While you're creating a more air-tight space, caulk around windows and doors. 5. Replace air filters. Your HVAC system likely has filters inside that trap dirt and con- taminants. Replacing the filters leads to cleaner indoor air and helps the unit run more efficiently. 6. Power strips: Stock up on power strips and plug all of your peripherals and computer equipment into these strips. This way when you want to power down everything com- 10 green home improvements pletely, you simply turn off the power button on the strip. This ensures no devices are drawing power even in the off position, which many do. 7. Install fans. Fans aren't just useful in the summer. In the winter, the blades can be set to rotate in the opposite direction and help draw warm air into the room, heating more efficiently. 8. Rainwater barrels: Set up rainwater barrels at the downspouts of your home's gutter system. These barrels collect water that can be used to water indoor and outdoor plants, or even wash the car. Some feature a spigot to which you can directly connect a garden hose. 9. Plant trees. Trees are good for the environment in many ways, producing necessary oxygen for life and offering food and living areas for wildlife. Trees can also shade a home during the warm weather, helping reduce energy consumption. 10. Glass fireplace doors: Install glass fireplace doors, which are safer than fireplace screens. They'll also help protect against heat loss up the chimney when there isn't a fire lit. www.newscanada.com durhamregion.comNews Advertiser • August 26, 201111 AP Pickering To wn Ce ntre List of Exhibitors in Ajax/Pickering News Advertiser ’s 1.

Mike Ruta Entertainment Editor mruta@durhamregion.com durhamregion.comMonth in the Arts Gillian Margot was a high school math and science whiz Mike Ruta mruta@durhamregion.com AJAX -- Gillian Margot was a top student in high school, excelling in math and science. So why did the former Ajax resi- dent change direction and trans- form herself into a jazz singer and writer? It started at the University of Guelph, when she met a big-band leader and “ex-hippie cornetist. “He decided he wanted me to come sing with his band, even though they had never had a sing- er,” she recalls. Margot sang in a rehearsal and received an invitation to join the band full time. She gigged with them for eight months, eventually leaving the band, “overwhelmed by school”. But the die was cast and before long she transferred to York Uni- versity, where she auditioned for and was accepted into the music and then the jazz program. It wasn’t an easy decision. Mar- got calls it “a terrifying leap of faith for me,” and it didn’t help that a lot of people told her ‘this is not some- thing you do for a living’. They underestimated her resolve. “When I set my mind to some- thing I’m going to do it,” she says. “I thought, ‘this is much more like- ly that I’m going to do this than to be in math and science’. I really enjoyed the singing and the learn- ing about that.” One of her teachers at York was the legendary Oscar Peterson. And she took private lessons with jazz artist Carol Wels- man. Her real education had begun. It was not as if she was a stranger to music and singing. Mar- got had trained as a clas- sical pianist and comes from a musical family. She grew up listening to jazz played by her par- ents at home and sang in the choir at St. Bernadette’s church in Ajax. But she had never taken singing all that seriously. It was time to get serious and get down to work. “I was learning that everything I had learned in classical music I had to unlearn it to a certain extent to take in jazz theory,” Margot says. Fast-forward to when the Gillian Margot Trio, with pianist Stuart Harrison and double bassist Jordan O’Connor, released its first disc, A Pink-Filled Sky, last year. Margot invited an audience, including her parents, to an invitation-only con- cert. They and others saw that this was not “a bit of a dalliance” that wouldn’t stand the test of time. Margot says in choosing band- mates she didn’t want mere accompanists backing her up, lurking some- where in the shadowy background. “I was looking for a really collaborative effort and these guys were perfect fits for that,” she says. The disc reveals Mar- got as a remarkable singer with a rich, mature voice. While she says the band wanted to maximize the original material on the disc and minimize the covers, the latter are outstanding: Duke Ellington’s Mood Indigo is simply astonishing and Margot was born to sing eden ahbez’s Nature Boy. But the disc features mostly original music written by Margot and O’Connor. Margot says they were both so busy that they would schedule three- to six-hour ses- sions, which they recorded, once a week to compose. “We wanted it to be art in a lot of ways but we wanted it to be art that people wanted to listen to,” she says. The lovely January was one of the first songs they wrote. “Jordan O’Connor started play- ing chords and I started improvis- ing vocally,” she says of its genesis. Kiss was finished in 20 minutes. Margot had written some poet- ry and O’Connor noticed it. She recalls it was a very unlikely time in the session to get creative. “It was at the end of the day and we were exhausted and we’d got on one another’s nerves,” she says. Margot says the trio is her prior- ity. However she is often asked to do “one-offs,” single shows with a band that has no singer or for a special event. The trio is preparing new mate- rial, alternating between gigging, writing and going into the studio to record. “We’ve been doing quite a bit of writing,” she says.

Late last week, Robinson returned the favour, signing an education contract with the hockey club. “To go that high and be able to stay close to home, I was just so happy,” said the 16 year old on the Battalion’s website. Robinson, six-foot-three and 200 pounds, played last season with the Toronto Jr. Cana- diens of the Greater Toronto Hockey League, recording 49 goals and 46 assists for 95 points in 76 games. “I’m just excited to get going and anxious to see how I fit in.” “I like to think I’m a two-way forward,” he added. “I can move the puck, score and play in my own end, but I’ll also be that guy who goes into the corner, takes the body and plays physi- cal.” He was among 38 players who took part in the Battalion’s orientation camp at the end of May. “The camp was really good. It took a couple of shifts to get used to the pace, but I thought I moved the puck well and skated well.” He said he’s excited about getting main camp underway Aug. 31, but knows he’ll have to work hard to earn a regular spot in the lineup. “There are always going to be guys who have been drafted before that are looking to get on the team, so if at training camp I don’t perform I could lose my spot. I just think of myself as another guy trying to earn a spot on the team.” Robinson, who has worked hard this summer to prepare for the speed and physicality of the OHL, said the pace of the game will be the big- gest challenge in his transition from the minor midget ranks. “The speed of some of the guys and the speed of the game is a lot quicker than minor midg- et, so you have to make decisions a lot quicker. Every guy that’s playing deserves to be there and will be strong and fast.” His offseason routine has consisted of daily workouts at a gym as well as on-ice sessions in Pickering with Stan Butler, Battalion director of hockey operations and head coach. “I’ve been going to the gym five or six days a week and I’ve skated with Stan on Sunday nights,” said Robinson. “I’ve also been skating with another guy in Pickering who does a lot of stuff like edge work, quick feet and driving to the net.” Robinson credited his father as being the most influential person in his young hockey career. “My dad was drafted to the O and then to the National Hockey League to Chicago, so he knows what it’s like. He’s been through it all. He knows how much work and effort you have to put in and all the sacrifices you have to make just to be where you want to be.” AJAX -- The Ajax Football Club leads the way in the Durham Region, qualifying five of its teams for the semifinals of the Ontario Cup. In total, six teams from Ajax and Pickering have made their way to the final four. “This is an excellent example of the superi- or coaching that is taking place at the Durham Club levels,” states Brenda Brown, president of the Durham Region Soccer Association. The semifinal games for the Ontario Cup are scheduled for Aug. 27-28. Teams representing Ajax include: the Ajax Madrid U12B against the Burlington Hammers at Centennial Stadium in Toronto on Saturday, Aug. 27; the Ajax Thunder facing the Bramp- ton Blast in an U15B game at the Hershey Cen- tre in Mississauga on Saturday, Aug. 27; the Ajax Strikers U16G meet the Erin Mills S. Eagles at Lions Park in Brantford on Sunday, Aug. 28; the U16B Ajax Gunners play against the Brampton Blast at Rim Park in Waterloo on Sunday, Aug. 28; and the Ajax Strikers U17B team will face the Glen Shields Sun Devils at Centennial Stadium, Toronto, on Sunday, Aug. 28. Having already won the U21 Men’s Ontar- io Cup recently, the Ajax Football Club has the possibility of winning six Ontario Cups this year. There are also three teams still alive for a National Championship run in the U16B, U16G and U17B age divisions. “Ajax FC coaches and players have been work- ing hard all year long to get to this point. Their commitment to the games is unquestionable and I know that they will continue to represent Ajax FC to the best of their abilities,” states Ken Burgess, president of Ajax FC. The Pickering Power will be represented by the U17G team, who face the Burlington Heat at Lions Park in Brantford on Sunday, Aug. 28.

Wednesday night at the Ajax Com- munity Centre, the Panthers were blanked 5-0 by the Aurora Tigers, fall- ing to 0-3 in the Ontario Junior Hockey League exhibition schedule.

The young Dolphins Atom team won 6-0 against the Hawkeyes. Darius Brown had a 45-yard run into the endzone. This was initiated by some spectacular block- ing by Aaron Chung, Malik Williams, Izzy O’Brien and Kelly McBride. Myles Hil- ton made an amazing tackle to avert a Hawkeyes come- back touchdown attempt. Other major defensive plays were executed by Dasani McIntosh, Shaeden Cur- rie, Jacob Grimes and Riley McBride. Callum Brake also had an interception. It was a total team effort for the Dol- phins. The Dolphins peewees, 2011 OMLF league cham- pions, started the onslaught with a 12-0 lead in the first quarter on way to a 57-0 win. Running backs Rasheed Tucker, Craig Gon- salves, Jordan Wright and Bailey Grimes all rushed for touchdowns. The Dolphins continued to dominate with some aggressive offensive moves, including a 60-yard rush from Traevon Grant. QB Josiah Ambers pushed in a three yard touchdown. Receiver Tyus Hibbert scored a touchdown after a pass from quarterback Josiah Ambers. D’Andrew Higgins added the extra points with some excellent kicks. From this point onward it was a defensive battle with com- bination tackles from Shady Noel, Quintyn Pettiford and Jaiden Cruz. The defensive show continued with tack- les coming from Cameron Tabatabaei, Rasheed Tuck- er, Shaheem Purdon, Ste- phen Sullivan, Rohan Gran- ston, Jordan Wright, David Richard and Kayle Rodney. In the bantam game. Dol- phins quarterback Jaylen La Touche zipped a 30-yard throw to Justice Johnson, who made a spectacular catch for the touchdown. The second touchdown came after an 80-yard rush from an interception by Jus- tice Johnson. Running back Jordan Grimes pushed in the touchdown. Leading up to the second touchdown was a display of text book offensive and defensive techniques. Linebackers Dylan Colthirst, Jorin Grant and Kesean Bennett pro- vided some strategic tack- ling in the middle. Linemen Nathaniel Benjamin, Sha- reef Tucker, George Gou- dogianis and Daniel Fritzi- er provided the wall. Safety Matthew Romain executed his speed and agility in pre- venting Oshawa’s touch- down attempts, while run- ning backs Trey Humes, Ward Williams and wide receiver Mitch Van Pelt pro- vided much needed yards. At halftime, the game came to an abrupt end due to bad weather conditions. On Tuesday the Dol- phins picked up where they left off, scoring four more touchdowns. There were some spectacular throws by QB Jaylen La Touche to wide receiver Justice John- son, who had an incredible game, and accounted for four touchdowns. The Dol- phins showed their depth by substituting backup QB Justin Aliberti, who threw for the Dolphins final touch- down. In the end the Dol- phins were victorious 39-6.
