Summer is approaching, the time for us to celebrate life in Pickering and Ajax. The busy season for local festivals comes next week with the 26th annual Ajax Home Week (including the Pickering Village Festival and Youth Crusade '96) and Frenchman's Bay Festival in Pickering. The festival season actually kicked off May 25-26, with the Whitevale Festival (pony rides, face painting, craft mar- ket. BBQ, petting zoo, dis- plays and demonstrations) and Pickering Museum Village's Steam Up and Opening (mule team wagon rides, children's games and springtime activities). Conservation areas are now also open. Greenwood is great for nature walks (from night hikes in search of owls to wildflower walks) and other activities for the whole fami- ly; swimming begins at the Petticoat Creek pool on June 8th. Next weekend is the time to put the cottage on hold, how- ever.

Overpayment sends auditors back to table; Pickering legal staff on alert by Glenn Hendry News of a $517,000 over- payment given to Metro -area firm Novacor did not reach Pickering council for more than two months after it was clear there was a problem, says Mayor Wayne Arthurs. The company, awarded a $3.2 million contract to recon- struct Fairport Road in late 1994, has "recognized" the overpayment. Arthurs says, but has to pay up, prompting the town to put its legal team on alert. The overpay meat - issued by a member of the xorks department - is the latest fias- co that has turned the town's financial house into a disaster area and left councillors and senior staff scrambling to pre- vent a further occurrence. "Certainly, when you have a $517,000 (overpayment) you have a big mistake." Arthurs says. "It was a single error. It happened to be a big one. The problem fust surfaced in mid-February when trea- surer Jim Walls told works staff the contract appeared to be going more than $300,000 over budget. Works officials then started digging on their own and only discovered the overpayment - a progress pay- ment to Novacor was issued twice - six weeks later when they got to the payment schedule. "What you've got is a large Words —Of — Wk&M -,los Dickson Recognition on the job is the best kind of workmen's compensation. We're living in unusual times. There are pocket calculators, pocket cameras and pocket recorders. In fad, there is everything for the pocket...except money. A bachelor is a man who never Mrs. anything. A true test of character is being put on a pedestal and not looking down on those who put you there. local budget item that appeared to be over budget," Arthurs says. "The works people are scratching their heads, thinking it shouldn't be over budget. But they don't think it's a problem yet. Maybe there's a mistake somewhere." When the double payment was discovered, Tom Quinn, the town's director of opera- tions, took over and contacted Novacor to address the issue, Arthurs adds. Quinn, however, did not inform Arthurs of the problem for another month. 'Tltis is a serious matter, one that we regret has occurred. But we're working as hard as we can and at this point we're confident we'll get all the money back," Arthurs says. "If we find legal action is the most appropriate way to protect the town's interest then we will take that action. But we would prefer to find a more co-operative resolu- tion." The overpayment falls on the heels of the missing $939,000 discovered during the budget process. The sub- sequent review by a local auditing firm vindicated Walls - who was suspended for 30 days over the incident - and uncovered "significant morale problems" with town staff. The auditors were not asked to look at the Novacor overpayment during their review, Arthurs admitted, but will be asked to go over the town's books again to "pre- clude any re -occurrence of this magnitude." .Novacor representative Tony Tassone was not avail- able for comment. ricaminis um uunionwig town A.aenpuomtuy Dy a :arrear min kits Submit en applis rioa rmess. . by.FMi% May 31,.1996, to the • coli m ul" fiat Award n Overpayment puts summer tender routines on ice by Glena Hendry Pickering's latest financial faux pas has regional councillor Maurice Brenner re -thinking the town's policy of giving summer tender approval responsibilities to town manag- er Tim Sheffield. Although the policy has been to allow the town manager to award contracts during the sum- mer recess but the recent announcement of a double pay- ment of more than half a mil- lion dollars to a contractor (cou- pled with the $939,000 budget shortfall) has put even routine tender apuments on hold. Brenner, who successfully got the motion deferred two weeks to ensue "fail -safes" are in place, said he wants council to hear from the town's auditing firm (a report on the overpay- ment is pending) before making any decisions on the tender pol- icy. I will not be supporting the transfer of tender approval to any staff member. I don't think it would be appropriate until we sat this thing out," he said. "Given what has recently tran- spired, I can't support any trans- fer of responsibilities to any single person until all the checks and balances are in place-" The councillor suggested the town could set up a tender committee, made up of council- lors and staff, to act on council's behalf during the summer recess.

Sent by the Town of Prekenng on behalf of one of our avonnte places - the Pickering !Museum Village -the one-page nae asked us would we please include a mention of the museum's Annual Steam -up & Open mg in our next community calendar of events. Our first reaction was sadness that we could do nothing to assist our friends at the museum - the announcement had arrived five days too late. Our second response was annoyance. Once again the Town of Pickering had given short shrift to what should be one of its proudest possessions: the little jewel up in Greenwood that scarcely anyone knows exists. First-time visitors to the Museum Village are amazed to discover this enchanting sp(m. For most. it brings back memories of our youth, of simpler times. of parents or grandparents long -gone: it educates our children in ways that parents or schools can never do. For a day, it is possible to feel we have stepped tack to a simpler, more delicate space in time. While acknowledging ownership of the museum for many years, the Town's efforts on its behalf lave march to be dated As a tourist attraction, this could easily have became another Black Creek Pioaer Village, or per- haps even a Kortright Centre. But when it coma o advertising and pmmo- tion of Pickering and its possible attractions, this Town has always been short-sighted. Were it not for the devoted efforts of the faithful - the museum's Board of Directors and a remarkable group of volunuas - this special place would have long ago decayed and died. Did you know that the museum now counts as part of its inventory over 100 period cmmme& available to be wom by those interested im volutueering to help entertain and inform visoors to the site; that its buildings, often used by filmmakers because it resembles Avonlea, are also available for weddings and other functions? In hard economic times, it is not unusual for companies foelmg de pinch to cut back on advertising, thinking this in some way will decreau their overhead Business consultants, however, are quick to point ow that, fir from saving money, such tactics can be a major blander. Snout companies advertise even more when othm are cutting back because dee public is geict to forgo anything it doesn't bearabout on a regelrr basis.

Regional councillors voted 24-5 to advise the province of Durham's interest in delivering the program, which would force social service recipients to work for their paychecks. The program, part of Premier Mike Hams' Common Sense campaign mandate, has come under fire from social activists for its "boot camp" connotations. Municipalities will not be given a choice on participation, however (Social Services minister Dave Tsubouchi has threatened penalties for the disobediant), so the region should act imme- diately to "influence" the pro- gram, said Whitby Mayor Tom Edwards. "'rhe word itself is derogato- ry - our staff wants to rescue and support the dignity of those on social assistance," the social services committee chairman said, adding that only one or two per cent of those on social assistance are "ripping off' the system. "If we don't make some direction or move- ment towards the provincial recommendation a lot more people are going to be ham- mered" Edwards, nonetheless, voted against the recommendation. He was joined by four other, less conciliatory, councillors, including Ajax Mayor Steve Parish, who said he has "seri- ous concerns" about the pro- gram. "1t was designed during the heat of an election campaign. Most people who are on wel- fare are there against their own wishes. They should be focus- ing on a program that helps people make the transition into the workforce." The province is looking for 15 test sites to jump start the program next month for fall implementation, with another 15 municipalities ready for January, 1997 and a third group for next April. program Queen's Park has promised to pay 80 per cent of the pro- gram. Durham's share of the program will be about $300,000, said family services director Ron Dancey. The preliminary model will combine existing services, unpaid work schemes (to learn skills and to develop a work history) and will work "only if it's appropriately done," Dancey said. The money, he explained, will go towards extra staff, transportation for participants and payments to other employ- ment agencies. About 400 non-profit agen- cies have been contacted so far for support, he added. Approximately 6,000 Durham residents will be eligible and Dancey hopes to serve 1,800 with the program. Oshawa councillor Pauline Beale called the program a "scheme" to get people work- ing. "We want to get our foot in the door so we can do it our way," she said. Jesuit Infirmary announces winners On Saturday, May 4, 1996, the Jesuit Infirmary Volunteers' Association held its 2nd Annual Garage dt Bake Sale, raising $3,006.50 for the benefit of the Infirmary's residents. The volunteers would like to express their appreciation to all who donated articles for sale, and to those who worked so hard to make the event successful. Special thanks to all who braved the weather to attend and buy, and to the Oshawa Whitby Old Time Fiddle Club, who donated their time and talent. Draw winners were: Small Afghan — J.

'4 Herongate becoming a tradition by Marione Green It was another fun evening at Herongate as we took in the latest offering "Cheaters", on opening night, May 18. It con- tinues to June 29. Although certainly not the best play ever staged, "Cheaters" certainly calls for some nimble work from the cast. And, as always, Herongate's lively mix of familiar and new -taus profes- sionals proved ready for the task. As might be gleaned from its title, this farce consists of six people, four of whom are in the act of cheating on their spouses. Of the three couples we see (one after the other) in the first act, two are middle- aged, one is young. And beyond that, it would be a shame to say much about the story line, because to do so would give away virtually the entire plot, such as it is. "Cheaters" makes the actors work -- in more ways than one. As a weary Bob Whitefield acknowledged later, having to change the stage sets time, after time, after time, is indeed tiring. Whitefield, new to the barn, turned in an excellent perfor- mance, as did Herongate vet- erans George Waugh, Joanne Mactntosh and Anita Vandeneykel. Newcomers David Strauss and Marion Coltman rounded out the cast, with Ann E Ward as director and Pat Ward also on duty. Quite obviously a product of the '70s, "Cheaters" seems very out -of -sync when viewed from a '90's perspective. The comedy, written by Michael Jacobs in 1978, provides many brilliant lines for the characters on stage. But though the author has rewrit- ten his piece several times, the play suffers from what can only be called a rather off -kil- ter ending and a sudden morality statement that seems Herongate Barn Dinner Theatre Ahona Rd., Pidurino A SPICY COMEDY Runs until June 29 Book now, tick to Wfing faW Starting Saturday May 18 x;1472-3085 J almost silly coming from the young character who is oblig- ed to say the lines. But, who cares? The play is a humourous romp. in an excellent setting, enjoyed by an audience which has just been fed and entertained downstairs. Although we've reviewed Herongate several times in the many years it has been open, we have never mentioned the wonderful, enthusiastic audi- ences this venue continues to attract. Any night seems to be a good night at Herongate as audiences go along with the fun, even when the after-din- ner entertainer pokes fun at them or the play may not be the best one ever. They keep coming back for more. Herongate runs so smooth- ly, it has established itself as a tradition in the community — and one which takes a break through the summer months. With the next offering, "Run For Your Wife", not scheduled until September, we recom- mend that you take in "Cheaters" before the big barn closes for the surnmer.

It can actually save you money. Because of a lack of land- fill space, many communi- ties charge a fee for dispos- ing of bags of yard waste. But with mulching, there is now no mower bag to empty, no garbage bags to dispose of, no mess and no hassles. You also save up to 25 per cent on fertilizing costs. During mulching, shred- ded grass clippings are blown down into the turf, creating a natural boost to the roots that is rich in nitro- gen. And mulching eliminates the build up of thatch, a con- dition created by over fertil- ization, shallow waterine and improper mowing. Mulched grass decomposes quickly and prevents thatch build up, which can stop water from reaching the roots. Mulching is also a time saver. Ask yourself: how long do you actually spend mowing, and how much time is taken up emptying heavy, cumber- some mower bags? In fact, you actually spend up to 33 per ant less time because you don't have to keep stopping to empty the bag. And you don't have to clean up afterward. 11tbit o a. ore, ideally the nest sbtt�lld .

A I Safety — for those in dis- tress and for the rescuer — was the seed for the creation of the Helpline Throw Bag, a rescue line that should top the safety checklist for every boater. The product, designed so even the most inexperienced person can throw a rope with a high degree of accu- racy to someone in distress, comes recommended by fire departments, search and rescue personnel and police officers as the ideal tool for rescues, says Mike Morgan, the national sales manager for Pickering's RDS Canada. "The best part is there's line T hrow 8: a life-saver not the necessity for the fire- fighter or police officer to go into the water and risk his own life." The Helpline is, quite simply, a floating rope, tucked into a nylon bag which contains flotation material. The line comes out clean every time with no mess to untangle and the bag comes in a variety of sizes, including a smaller version ideal for snowmobile ice rescues. RDS started manufactur- ing the product 10 years ago for the Niagara Falls Fire Department. The Canadian Coast Guard, Pickering Fire Department and Halton Regional Police are some of the other organizations now on the RDS client list. The recent push, Morgan says, is to consumers. RDS already has sold throw bags to the Canadian Rowing Association and the Canadian Power Squadron, plus more than 200 bags at the recent Cottage Life Show. "Once people understand how the product works, sales boom," Morgan explains, adding that boats over 18 feet long are required to have a throwing line or something similar, Brooklin Cycle Marine We stock the full line of Honda Outboards Ar 2 HP 3840] TDA 90 HP n It 10% OFF Brooklyn Cycle Marine all outboards 701 Brock St. N.
