Remember the
care -givers
by John Cooper
Greetings of the season!
The Yuletide season is well underway.
But while it's a time of plenty for many
people, local service agencies continue to
(to their wonderful work, even though
feeling the crunch during holiday times as
they strive to meet their goals.
During these days of joy, as we receive
nem articles of clothing or gifts for the
hone a little thought for those less fortunate
might prompt us to give away, rather than
throw out, things we no longer need.
This season, before the glow wears off,
why not consider giving a gift to a worthy
ser%ice agency — food, clothing, furniture.
money, or your time? Or even the gift of
life itself?
At the Salvation Army, Paul Carew,
director of family services, said the
organization has been busy with its
Christmas hamper program. The hamper
includes food, food vouchers and toys and
is distributed to needy families who pre -
register with the Sally Ann, as the Army is
affectionately known.
Carew expects to exceed last year's figure
of 450 families (including 1,200 children)
this Christmas. While registration for the
hampers — which cost between $100 and
$120 each — officially ended a couple of
weeks ago, it was extended to meet the
additional need.
"There is a need out there with the recent
cuts in social assistance and the uncertain
economic times right now," said Carew. For
example, use of the Salvation Army's food
bank in October was 50 per cent higher than
in October 1994; November showed a 30
per cent increase over the same time the
previous year.
And there are some sad stories that go
with the season, says Carew. "I got a phone
call about 10 minutes ago from a family
who couldn't follow through with
sponsoring a hamper because the husband
had just lost his job."

Is your back up against a
wall...are you hog-tied by
bureaucratic red tape...is the
"system" working against you
instead of for you:' Do you
need someone to champion
your cause?
Dale Goldhawk, the silver -
maned, cowboy -booted, blue-
jeaned host and driving force
behind CTV-TV's Goldhawk
Fights Back may just take on
your case.
,Naturally, you'll have to get
in line, for Goldhawk hears
from a few people — 400
letters and phone calls a week
— from all across Canada.
A Pickering resident for 10
years. Goldhawk has just as
much grit, pith and crustiness
as you'd expect from a former
newspaperman who earned his
stripes in the heated trench
warfare of Canada's biggest
newspapers back in the '60s.
He's seen the scams,
tnanoeuvred the convoluted
alleyways of government
ineptitude and chased many a
flim-flam man in three decades
of joumalism. y.

But the group welcomes

Innushare is targeted to meet

"These are by far the most

"Government funds go to band

children are low on their
priorities. You'll never have
healthy teenagers unless you
have healthy children."
Innushare has provided a

At Goodwill, public
relations manager Jill Kehoe
said it's business as usual for
the not-for-profit training
agency.
Goodwill collects donated
items at its three stores in
Durham (in Ajax, Whitby and
Oshawa) and sells those goods
to finance training programs to
help the unemployed get jobs.
As well, Goodwill operates the
Durham Regional Community
Training Centre in the Ajax
Plaza at 76 Harwood Avenue;
the agency operated a store at
that location for 40 years until
the past summer when it
opened its "superstore" on
Bayly Street, said Kehoe.
Its new superstore "is the
biggest of all the 25 stores that
Goodwill operates," said
Kehoe. "We channel the
benefits of the stores right
back into the community by
training Durham residents."

o haying attention?
w' .;Okay, kiddies, we're back out to the
o playground again — this time it's Pickering
with a vacant seat on council. And unless
such usually reliable sources as Sheffield
and Johnson have been fibbing to us, the
« word is that Pickering councillors plan to
take it upon themselves to choose who they
;like the best.
And the democratic process goes down
ahe drain again.
-Jit Ajax, at least the thinking made some
sense. With the mayor's chair vacant at
such a critical time in our history, one could
' understand the urgency to frill both that seat
and the one left vacant on regional council
when Parish shifted over to mayor. We also
can't argue too much that McMaster wasn't
the logical choice to send to region.
We would he happier if McMaster's
:position were temporary so voters could get
to decide whether or not they want him
there, in Spring, but at least the local set
:will be filled via by-election in March. The
democratic process, albeit watered-down, is
still in evidence.
Jn Pickering, however, the scenario is
worse — much worse.
With one regional chair now vacant, and
two-thirds of a term left to run, council has
signalled its intention to appoint someone
— perhaps even to the regional chair. Whit

Vacant (as in the case of Ajax) or tilled
temporarily until a by-election can be
,called, rumors — which have been
::circulating for months — would indicate
::that this is not the plan.
As verified by the man himself, following~
last week's council meeting, ex -councillor
'Doug Dickerson has already been asked by
"a couple of members of council" whether
he would consider stepping in to fill the
now -vacant seat. Dickerson: a man rejected
by the voting public so many times, we

Cost, of course, has been cited by
Sheffield as the reason for not considering a

Goodwill is currently
conducting a certified netware
engineering. course at the
training centre.
"We are basically serving
people who are unemployed,
and you've got unemployment
in Durham Region so you've
got people who need our
services," said Kehoe. "Part of
our training is in job search
techniques, such as
presentation and ensuring they
have all the tools they need to
be employable." The class
currently has 13 students.
Annually, Goodwill trains
1,200 people and has a
placement rate of more than 50
per cent. For more information
call 683-8440.
During the holiday season,
blood donations are needed
more than ever, as busy
holiday schedules often
interfere with a person's ability
to give,
Mary Sano of the Red Cross
Durham Region office said a
blood donor clinic will be held
in Oshawa at St. Gregory's
Auditorium (Simcoe and
Adelaide Streets) an lhtttsday,
Jan. 4 from 12:30 to 8 p.m. In
addition to blood, the Red
Cross provides training in
emergency and standard first
aid. A course will be held for
Ajax and Pickering on Jan. 6
and 7. For more information
call 723-7251.
Need some warm clothing
for the winter? Do you have
some wart clothing to give? If
so, Dunbanon-Fairport United
Church in Pickering is holding
a Winter Clothing Exchange
Co-op.
"The idea behind it is that
we know this winter in
particular is difficult for a lot
of people, not only for those
on welfare and assistance but
also middle class people who
are losing jobs," said Reverend
Glenn Brown. "We wanted to
set up a winter clothing
exchange co-op and let people
know that this is for anybody.
There is a chasm developing
between those who have and
those who have not. We are
hoping people will get a sense
of the fact that we're in this
together." .
Brown said that people have
been "extraordinarily
generous." allowing the church
to build up a stock of items.
OWnized by Sally Sirard and
Pam Tetford of the Church
;Outreach Committee, the co-
op is held Wednesdays and
Saturdays, 9:30 to 11 a.m. and
is a winter -long program.
Donations of clean clothing
can be dropped off at the
church, located at 1066
Dunbtutoa Street, "just about
any time during the week,"
said Brown. For more
information call 839-7271.
., Thelma Bamber, the
dynamo who runs a service out
of her home in Cberrywood at
the north end of Pickering, said
the Christmas season has been
-a great one. Bamber collects
clothing and furniture and
other goods for the needy and
the homeless, storing them in
her garage and relying on'a
network of dedicated
volunteers to make deliveries.
"People have been phoning
from all over," said Bamber.
"People have been coming
with lots of stuff that we can
use. Many loads have already
gone out. No sooner do I get it
(the garage) empty than it fills
out again. It's really been
good." Anyone wanting to help
refill Thelma s garage can call
831-8899.

The Yuletide season is a
time of family and giving, a
return to traditional values and
a time to remember the person
for whom the holiday is
named, according to pastors at
local churches.
Reverend Glenn Brown of
Dunbarton-Fairport United
Church believes that people
should not feel pressured to be
in the "holiday spirit."
"There's an inordinate
amount of pressure for families
to get along with each other,"
he says. "There are a lot of
unrealistic expectations, many
of them secular rather than
religious concerns. The
religious side of it is simply a
measure of hope, a way of
looking at it in terms of the
future."
Christmas is a time to
remember that good things
should happen year-round, he
says. "Our church doesn't do
extraordinary acts of charity
because it's Christmas. At
Christmas, it's time to
celebrate the birth of the
savior. I look at Christmas as a
way of looking back and
thinking about the gifts of God
over the year. And taking
comfort in the fact that when
God wanted to visit people.
God came not as a full-grown
adult to solve our problems,
but as a baby who needed to be
taken care of."
Karen Smart, pastoral
assistant at St. Paul's United
Church, says Christmas is a
time to remember "God's gift.
We remember that he chose a
very humble family to bear a
son that would be his presence
in the world. We remember the
gift that son brought, of peace
and joy and happiness, in a
world that is often hurting."
According to Reverend
Glenn Jackson of St. Paul's
United Church, "there is a lot
of hype" around Christmas.
The real message is that "God
cares about humankind so
panionately that He decided to
join us. There is stinediing in
the human spirit that God said,
and continues to say, is worth

the way for.

Her wheels are rolling
Meagan Gillott of Pickering.
by Michelle F'uselli
At the age of nine,
Meagan Gillott of
Pickering is the
youngest senior roller skating
club member at Wheelies in
Whitby. And her wheels are
rarin' to go even further in the
club.
Meagan first started skating
at the age of three when her
parents began taking her with
them when they skated on
Sunday nights. Later, both
Meagan and her parents took
Saturday morning lessons, to
learn skating backwards and
waltzes, along with many other
skating techniques. Long after
her parents stopped going
though, Meagan decided that
she wanted to stay with it.
"It's fun learning new
routines and moves," says
Meagan. "It never gets boring."
For four days a week, for a
total of 12 hours, she works
with her two coaches Pia
Schmidt -Hansen and Bev
Preston, practising her front and
backwards skating, turns and
loops, until she has them
perfect. Her parents, who are
dedicated to supporting her in
her desire to skte, have
watched Meagan spend a
constant hour -and -a -half
practising her flips and loops.
over and over.
"She doesn't say 'i can't'
anymore," says her father Terry.
"She says, 111 try.'"
Even in the mall, fellow
shoppers and her parents can
catch sight of Meagan practising
her jumps — in the mirrors of
the stores.
"Once I had a woman come
up and ask me if she was a
figure skater," says her mother
Wendy. "And I noticed that her
daughter was doing the same
thing as Meagan."
Being with the older skaters
also has its charms for Meagan
who enjoys not only skating
along with the older kids but
also learning from them.
Watching them skate and
compete she copies their moves
and gestures, then changes than
to fit her own style.
"She can be as animated as
she wants on the floor," Terry
says. "She can be larger than
life."
Once all the moves for a
routine have been perfected, and
some of them have taken up to
three months to get them that
way, the competitions come
next. In her first major
competition with the senior
club, Meagan placed eighth in
her division, in freestyle. Since
that time, she has steadily
improved her skating techniques
and in the Open Interpretive
Skating event a few weeks ago,
she placed second competing
with skaters who are in their late
teens and early twenties.
"I just got out there and had
fun," Meagan says. "I don't care
if I win or not."
In addition to skating with
the club, Meagan also
participated in the Whitby
Canada Day parade, which she
thought was great fun since she
got the chance to do whatever
she wanted while skating — and
got to wave at everyone she
pa.I�t's something she really
enjoys and as long as she enjoys
it we'll find a way to get her
there," Wendy says. "It's a
healthy, clean sport and it's
something she can keep on with
and continue to do."

that had held him for a year
and a half. "As soon as he got
outside he turned to his wife
and said, 'Am I really going
home?"'
Business being what it is,
Goldhawk and crew left,
pleased to have been a part of
it but already looking forward
to their next challenge. A year
later, he received a call from
the woman in Brandon. Jack
had died, but she had effusive
thanks for Goldhawk.
"She told me, 'What I got
was an extra year with Jack,"'
Goldhawk says and smiles.
Away from CTV, Goldhawk
lives near the lake in
Pickering's south end. He has a
special passion for the lake. A
boat owner for more than two
decades, he has spent many a
pleasant afternoon on his 26 -ft.
trimaran. A photo on his desk
shows Goldhawk manning the
tiller while son Nicky, 6,
tucked closely by Dad, enjoys
the afternoon breeze. Although
the boat has since been
scrapped, he saved the mast,
which now stands in his
backyard. "The neighbors
probably think I'm nuts," he
says.
He grew up in Ridgetown,
near Chatham, in Ontario's
corn and tomato belt.
Pickering, with its small-town
atmosphere, has the kind of
ambience that makes it a great
place to raise Nicky and
daughter Emma, 8. They enjoy
the Pickering community, he
says. Emma plays in the local
soccer league, the family skis
and skates in the winter; in
summer, they strap on their
roller blades for some family
blading by the lake.
And their commitment to
the community is not confined
to recreation. Goldhawk's wife,
television producer Jill Foster,
is chair of the Pickering
Library Board. Community
involvement makes for a
contrast to the sometimes
heartbreaking, occasionally
maddening and often
humorous thread of life on
Goldhawk Fights Bade.
Goldhawk likes humor: it
breaks the monotony, gives the
team a little breathing space in
the hectic day. W points to a
bulletin board on which are
pinned envelopes. "'IUis is our
'Wall' he says. When people
get the name wrong, we pert it
on the Wall."
While the show's mailing
address is Agincourt, Ontario,
letter writers show a great deal
of imagination — or
misinterpretation — when
writing to the show. Hie points
to a few: Aging Court, Agenda
Court, Asian Court, Agent
Court. Goldhawk is variously
called Gary Goldhawk,
Attorney; Dale Goldheart;
Dale Goldfarb; . Daly
Goldhawk or simply
Dalehawk.
If he has any advice, it is to
be aware of any "free offers.
There's no free lunch. If
somebody tells you something
is free, you should ask them a
lot more about it."
He likes working in
television. "If you do it
properly, it's the most effective
way to tell a story," he says.
While he's not the kind of guy
given to sentimentality, he
admits, however, that "I have a
soft spot in my heart for
newspapers and radio."
With thousands of
kilometres and hours logged
by the show, Goldhawk is
"thinking of writing a book.
Laurie and I are going to do
that. There is so much material
and a high interest in it." Right
now, life is moving along at a
rapid, but manageable pace. It
helps that Foster, whom
Goldhawk met while at Global
Television, "made the decision
to stay home and look after the
kids. She'll be running the
municipality some day and
then I'll retire," he adds and
grins. "And rll stay home and
write the great Canadian novel
that nobody will buy."
Goldhawk pauses, leans
back in his chair and chuckles
ironically. He places a cowboy
boot on the edge of his desk.
Its hand -tooled leather shines
in the glare of fluorescent
light. He runs a hand through
his silvery hair. He looks like a
modern-day, high-tech
marshal, armed with honesty
and a camcorder instead of a
Smith 8t: Wesson, taking a
break before taking his posse
out on the trail again.
Something in his manner
suggests that, retirement
notwithstanding, he'll never
stop chasing the bad guys.

culprits on foot in an attempt
to secure assistance. Both
suspects were last seen running
west on Maple Street toward
Beatty Road.
Suspect one is described as
male, black, 20 to 25 years old,
6 ft. 2 in. tall. slim build, short
dark colored hair and wearing
a brown plaid shirt or jacket
and green track pants.
Suspect two is described as
male, black, 20 to 25 years old,
6 ft. tall, slim build, short dark
hair, also wearing a brown
plaid shirt or jacket.

for any information that leads
to an arrest in this incident or
any other serious offence.
