Wednesday’s edition of the government publication Canada Gazette Part II included an order declaring the Pickering lands as an airport site, a move that takes the government one step closer to officially designating the land. But, Pickering-Ajax-Uxbridge MP Dan McTeague explained that notice does not preclude Trans- port Canada from continuing to work with the City and other in- terested parties on an agreement for those lands. “This is not news,” he said Thursday, noting the City was no- tified earlier this year that the no- tice would appear in the Gazette on Aug. 15. He reported the government has to proceed with the designa- tion as a prerequisite to allow the zoning process to begin. Transport Canada states in an Aug. 10 letter that the government has been in- volved in extensive consultations with local municipalities and the stakeholders groups. “As a result, municipal airport zoning bylaws, to be passed under the authority of the Aeronautics Act, are being considered as an al- ternative to federal airport zoning regulations,” the letter said. It went on to state, “This decla- ration process represents prudent long-term planning and does not, Cops warn credit card holders DURHAM —Police are warn- ing residents to be cautious with credit cards in the wake of a recent rash of counterfeiting incidents. Over the last few weeks, several people from across the region have reported unauthorized activity on their bank and credit card accounts, Durham Regional Police said. An investigation is ongoing. Police said information is stolen from encoded magnetic strips on victims’ credit cards and used to manufacture counterfeit cards. The process is known as “double-swip- ing.” In almost all of the cases the data is stolen when the cards were used at gas stations, spokesman Sergeant Paul Malik said. In cases involving bank debit cards, the cul- prits obtained the victim’s personal identification number (PIN), the of- ficer added. Police say consumers should be cautious when using their cards, not let them out of their sight and always conceal the card when keying a PIN number. Unautho- rized activity on accounts should be reported to credit card companies, bank branches and police. A.J.

The Durham Region Health Department reports Rotary Park in Ajax, Lakeview Beach East and Lakeview Beach West in Os- hawa, Elgin Pond in Uxbridge and Kinsmen Beach in Scugog are unsafe for swimming. Local beaches that are open this week are: Frenchman’s Bay West and Frenchman’s Bay East in Pickering, Pickering Beach in Ajax, Whitby Beach East in Whitby, Bowmanville East Beach, Bowmanville West Beach and Newcastle Beach Central in Clarington, Lakeside Beach in Scugog, and Beaverton South Beach, Beaverton North Beach and Thorah Centennial Park in Brock. Beaches are posted as unsafe for swimming when samples ex- ceed the provincial bacteria guidelines for recreational water quality. ADVERTISING FEATURE Smiles Can Return with the Right Dentures It is true that a picture is worth a thousand words. As a denturist, I have been confronted by a patient in my office bearing an old photograph; sometimes it’s a graduation phot and other times it’s from a wedding. The photo- graphic images all have this in common: They portray youth and vigor and a wondrous smile. Invariably, the patient has one wish as he or she shares with me their prized photograph. They want that same wondrous smile they enjoyed in their youth. Denture changes, as designed and filled by a denturist, can help these patients recapture their youth. It should be the goal of the denturist to assure the design of new dentures, such that they will sustain the image and appeal of a significantly younger person. Many people experience undue anxiety about visiting the denturist. Spending a few minutes talking about infection control pro- cedures will not only boost their confidence, it will also help them to become knowledgeable dental consumers and will help us to form successful relationships with our patients. There is a lot a denturist can accomplish. We ensure the correct positioning of the teeth to determine proper lip support so as to provide the right labial inclination and establish an automatic smile line. set- ting the anterior teeth in a proper verti- cal inclination will aid in meeting the expectation a patient has in relation to their self-image. We have learned much in recent years about physiology of aging though we are sill left with the inevitable out come and , in fact, fear the prospect of looking different. A comparison of a patient’s appearance today with the appearance of a few months ago may not indicate change. Nature works mysteriously, molecules form and reform, taking us apart and putting us back together each and everyday in an inexplicable fashion. Consider this, as you contemplate the mysteries of nature: humans grow two sets of teeth, elephants grow six sets, and sharks produce an indefinite number during their lifetime. Other parts of the human body are continually regenerated, con- tinuing and affirming the circle of life. though few of us are psychologically able to cope with the aging process, a denturist can help patients achieve a balance through hard work , common sense and sensitivity to patients need. As knowledge and technology advances we, as denturists are far more capable of adequately creating the appearance our patients desire far more consistently than anyone else in dentistry. Indeed, we can help our patients re-create the youthful, smiling faces seen in those photographs.

Nicole Ma, Local 521 president of the Public Ser- vice Alliance of Canada (PSAC), said there will be “very slow service, just like last Wednesday” at the 1400 Bayly St. office, when just one of the 10 employees was on the job between 8 a.m. and noon. She recommends that only residents with pressing business show up during the walkouts. “If they have to come in, for instance for something ur- gent, of course we cannot refuse them,” said Ms. Ma. “But if the problem is not that urgent, and they can wait until Thursday... I just don’t want people waiting unneces- sarily.” She said the federal gov- ernment employees have been without a contract for 13 months and talks with their employer, the Treasury Board, broke down a month ago. The Pickering workers process employment insur- ance benefits and social in- surance number applications. The PSAC workers are angry they have been offered a six-per cent increase over three years and are looking for 15-per cent raise. She noted members of Parliament received a whopping 20.6-per cent raise from the Treasury Board while higher manage- ment staff last year got an 8.7-per cent hike.

Bill Butcher, Durham president of the El- ementary Teachers’ Federation of Ontario (ETFO), was commenting after the ETFO conference wrapped up Thursday in Toronto. Conference delegates overwhelmingly sup- ported a motion encouraging school boards to set up and provide funding to schools that request learning materials “which reflect les- bian, gay, bisexual and transgender reali- ties”. Mr. Butcher said the local ETFO office in Whitby has “never received any type of re- quest” for such materials to be used for class- room instruction. The issue is largely a big city one, he said. “You get into the large centres and this is an issue that is topical and current for them, not for us,” said Mr. Butcher. Bev Freedman, the Durham District School Board’s programs superintendent, re- cently said it would have to be a decision of the board of trustees to approve funding for the materials. That would be prompted by a teachers’ group presentation to trustees at a standing committee meeting, she suggested. “We won’t be going forward to standing committee,” said Mr. Butcher. Ms. Freedman said this kind of issue “is very much in line” with issues that have been a concern of the Federation of Women Teachers’Associations of Ontario (FWTAO). The FWTAO and Ontario Public School Teachers’Federation became the ETFO three years ago.

Closed STUDENT DISCOUNT in any way, mean that a decision to proceed with an airport has been made. Any such decision would be subject to a comprehen- sive environmen- tal review process, substan- tial public con- sultation and ap- provals by appro- priate federal, provincial and municipal agen- cies.” The federal government an- nounced earlier this year that an international air- port would not been required on the site and should an airport be built in the fu- ture, it would only be a region- al facility. The government also dedicated rough- ly 7,000 acres of the airport lands as green space. “The federal government has been acting in an extremely concil- iatory way,” Mr. McTeague said, adding “a lot of goodwill has been estab- lished.” But, Ward 3 City Councillor David Pickles said Thursday, “I’m disappoint- ed they’re going ahead with this.” Coun. Pickles said he had hoped the gov- ernment would hold off on desig- nating the lands until an agree- ment on the fu- ture use of the property had been reached with a local stakeholders group. Stephen Fred- erick, president of the community group Voters Organized to Cancel the Airport Lands (VOCAL), also said Thurs- day government officials had in- formed the stakeholders group at their last meeting that the parties had until the end of the year to iron out an agreement. “Now suddenly, bang, here they are proceeding unilaterally again,” Mr. Frederick said, adding he believes the notice was “totally unacceptable”. Coun. Pickles said he was hop- ing the government would “restart the (designation) process... after we had signed an agreement.” However, he’s “still optimistic we’ll proceed with the drafting of an agreement (on the lands)”.

Durham Police deserve our respect, de- spite the way they drive. They are, for the most part, honest, dedicated, hard-work- ing individuals who keep the peace and are prepared to put their lives on the line to protect our community. Let them do their job and cut them some slack when you see them breaking some Highway Traffic Act laws. As long as they are not running over innocent chil- dren on sidewalks, beating the elderly, or otherwise abusing their authority, please give them the benefit of the doubt. I criticized them once when I didn’t know all the facts, got all sorts of flack in the press and tonnes of hate mail. I took my lumps and have made amends. It cost me some, but in the end when all is said and done, who are you going to call when you need help? Somewhere down the road, you may need them. When they come to your aid, perhaps save your life, you may then real- ize the importance of having a police force to protect you. Anarchy sucks.

Editorial &OPINIONS NEWS ADVERTISER AUGUST 19, 2001 Any day now all the results of the first annual report cards on municipal government performance will spill out of Queen’s Park. No doubt, our political leaders have been busy over the last little bit preparing their best and worst takes on the figures, and more importantly, their standing when matched up against other municipalities in On- tario. Already we’ve had Durham Chair- man Roger Anderson doing a little pre-emptive damage control just in case the results don’t put quite the shine on Ajax, Pickering and the Re- gion that councillors would like. Mr. Anderson warned last month that this being the first year of the ex- ercise, he doesn’t feel the “ratings or report cards will be as important as next year’s. We’re not all on the same page yet... I think next year will be fairer.” But for argument’s sake, let’s say Durham and its eight municipalities score near the top of the class. Any- one willing to bet a loonie or two that Mr. Anderson and mayors Steve Parish and Wayne Arthurs of Ajax and Pickering, respectively, won’t trumpet their success for all it’s worth? Of course they will. You need only look at the Durham District School Board and the fact it’s still living off the Bertelsmann award it won back in something like 1901, not 2001. This often-farcical circle of swing- ing from paranoia to pride or a down- playing of results underscores an im- portant point. While the Tories have been, ahem, testing the patience of many with their never-ending announcement of tests for students, grading for hospi- tals, rankings for high schools and sample cups for welfare recipients, many more have been taking notice. Faithfully and like clockwork, when grades 3 and 6 test results are out, parents call our office for months afterwards asking how certain schools did; people want to, no make that, have to know. It’s human nature to see how you stack up against oth- ers. How else do you explain the Durham Catholic District School Board calling this newspaper to make sure we knew they were in the top five of a sorry lot of boards in all of Ontario!!! when final results were tabulated on the Grade 10 literacy tests? They know there is plenty of stock put into these results and the increas- ing amount of comparative numbers coming our way. Certainly all these tests and barometers aren’t perfect. For in- stance, pitting private schools against the public system just doesn’t cut it. It’s a different playing field. But they are a good starting point and a more accurate tool of compari- son than the traditional method of let- ting effusive politicians and bureau- crats tell us just how lucky we are.

Chances are you see open fields, streams, kettle lakes and rolling hills — not development. That would be the ultimate goal — one that allowed the 160- kilometre swath of land above the Greater Toronto Area to be left untouched by the metal of earth-moving machines. That’s not going to happen as there are too many pressures on the Greater Toronto Area to develop and find new sources of housing for the millions of people living in and around the moraine. A 13-member advisory panel, which included representatives from development, industry, business as well as environmentalists, academics and Durham Regional Chairman Roger Anderson, re- cently wrapped up meetings on the future of the moraine with a re- port that made 11 recommendations for its use. These individuals and Municipal Affairs Minister Chris Hodg- son outlined a plan to take into consideration the ecological and economical concerns of all interested parties about the moraine. As can be expected with a balanced plan, not everyone is completely happy with the outcome. However, we can regard the report as a first good step. The plan calls for the end of subdivision develop- ment on the moraine, however, it does allow for urban settlement areas where current development could continue. This involves just nine per cent of the moraine, which could mean an additional 26,000 homes and 80,000 people calling the area home. On the other end of the spectrum, the natural core areas will take up 37 per cent and be among the most protected areas of the moraine. In the natural linkage areas, 16 per cent of the moraine, there would be woodlots and wetlands, with expansion for aggre- gate mining. The remaining 38 per cent would be countryside area set aside for rural residences, recreation, commercial and industrial uses, but only after environmental assessments had been complet- ed. Environmentalists including Liberal MPP Mike Colle, who is set to walk across the moraine in north Durham next week, call it a weak-kneed report. He claimed it allows too many million-dollar estates. Debbie Crandall, a panel member, admitted there are areas that need to be strengthened and that much of the nitty-gritty work will be done over the coming months. The major drawback of the panel is the fact it was only con- cerned about the moraine and not land bordering it. These recom- mendations could open the door for unprecedented development in prime rural areas in Durham.

NEWS ADVERTISER SUNDAY EDITION, August 19, 2001 PAGE 7 A/P A/P PAGE 8 NEWS ADVERTISER, SUNDAY EDITION, August 19, 2001 Car lovers share passion for old days with daily cruise-ins BY CRYSTAL CRIMI Staff Writer DURHAM —Like fine wine, some cars get better with age. That’s certainly the belief of a growing number of Durham afi- cionados who get together to admire the beauty of the many big-engine beasts that ruled the streets before the 1980s. Road Legend Cruisers has been in Durham for five years and its popularity is growing as fast as some of its hot rods can race. The cruisers aren’t part of an official club, but simply a group of people who own any type of pre-1980 cars and want to show them off. “It’s a free show to the partici- pants, free to the spectators,” said Reg Perron who runs the ‘cruise- ins’ with his wife, Mary Irvine. They do the cruise-ins not for money,but for the simple love of the sport. “If we don’t do it, where are they going to go to show their cars?” said Ms. Irvine. “It brings back memo- ries for the older people; they actu- ally thank us for it sometimes.” Since May over 319 different cars have come to the six different cruise-ins, which run in Durham every day of the week except for Tuesday from approximately 6 to 9 p.m. Local residents can catch the blasts from the past at the Canadian Tire Plaza, 260 Kingston Rd. E., in Ajax, every Saturday. The gather- ings continue in to September. Road Legend Cruisers give door prizes and awards to car owners at the cruise-ins and also accept dona- tions for Lakeridge Health Corpora- tion’s ‘Caring for Kids’fund, which raises money to buy equipment for the regional pediatric centre in Os- hawa where seriously ill children, pregnant mothers and newborns are treated. “An old car doesn’t lose value; it gains value,” he said and pointed to a 1956 Ford Crown Victoria. He ex- plained how the car cost $15,000 new and is now worth $45,000 US. “A new car, as soon as you drive it off the lot it loses $5,000.” Since the cruise-ins began, they have noticed a steady increase in old-car owners. “I’ve noticed over the last few years they’re (old cars) all over now,” said Karen Bell, who re- builds old cars with her husband Daniel and shows off their 1955 red and white Chevy Belair at the cruise-ins. “It’s unbelievable, they’re just coming out of the wood- work.” Ms. Bell said she thinks peo- ple are just trying to find something to do with their time like she and her husband were when they got into the cars. There is also a good chunk of money to be made from the hobby. “You sink a lot of money into them, but there’s a good return.” Achim Schneider has had a car to toy around with since he was old enough to drive, his current favourite, a 1946 dark purple Chevy Windsor. With just one glance at the vehicle, some people could feel like they’re in a Dick Tracy movie. “I just like the style of it; it’s an original,” he said. “It’s (the cruise- ins) a chance to shoot the (breeze) and get out of the house — it sure beats watching TV.” Like other pre-1980 car and truck owners, he has noticed an in- crease in spectators at the cruise-ins. “New cars are just all the same. They (people) want to see some in- dividuality,” said Mr. Schneider. “It’s something I’d like to see the younger kids do. New cars are all the same; cookie-cutter cars, at least these have something different.” Larry Shank, a spectator at many of the cruise-ins, said the same thing. “Back then it (the body style) changed every year and every man- ufacturer looked different. Now, you’ve got to read the tag to tell them apart,” he said. His favourites are the GM mod- els from the 1960s. “It was the era of high-performance vehicles — lots of power.” For some, the cars bring back memories, for others they bring ad- miration.

Pickering opposes possible land swaps BY SUSAN O’NEILL Staff Writer PICKERING —City councillors want to ensure en- vironmentally and historically significant land in north Pick- ering isn’t considered as part of a swap for property on the Oak Ridges Moraine. Pickering politicians passed a motion Aug. 7 to advise the Province that the City is op- posed to any of the land in north Pickering being used in a land transfer. “My concern is a deal is going to be cut at the expense of the environment and the City of Pickering,” said Ward 1 Regional Councillor Maurice Brenner. Municipal Affairs and Housing Minister Chris Hodg- son named 14 representatives, including Durham Chairman Roger Anderson, to an adviso- ry panel on the moraine in late June. That panel, which also in- cluded representatives from the development industry as well as environmentalists, re- leased a report last Tuesday outlining a series of recom- mendations for the moraine lands. And, although there was no mention of a land swap in their report, there has been specula- tion for months over a possible deal involving a controversial residential development in Uxbridge Township and provincially owned lands in north Pickering. The rumoured deal would see the Gan Eden property, for which a 2,500-home develop- ment has been proposed in Uxbridge, swapped for the Seaton lands, located south of Hwy. 7 and west of Brock Road. Coun. Brenner, who attend- ed a news conference hosted by the Province Tuesday, said, “Everything remains on the table according to the minis- ter.” He believes a land swap could be one option that’s being looked at as part of a land trust in the area. Coun. Brenner also said the City has one of the “biggest provincial land banks” in On- tario and he believes “a good part of the lands in north Pick- ering are equally if not more environmentally sensitive (than the land on the moraine).” He added, “I take exception to the fact our community, our Official Plan and our future is being discussed and deter- mined without any discussion on the impact to the municipal- ity.” Crazy for you... A.J. GROEN/ News Advertiser photo Chris Trudea shows pride in the 1929 Dodge her husband, Dell, rebuilt. The couple is part of the Road Legend Cruisers organization, which meets regularly with their restored vintage vehicles for ‘cruise-ins’at various spots around the region. Residents urged to fill backpacks for needy kids PICKERING —Organizers of the second annual ‘Countdown to Class School Supply Drive’ at the Pickering Town Centre (PTC) are calling on shoppers and area resi- dents to donate everything from pencils to backpacks for needy chil- dren in the community. “Visitors will be invited to fill up three large (display) buses with school supplies that will be donated to needy families,” said Lorna Mur- phy, marketing director for the PTC, during the fund-raising kickoff at the mall Wednesday. “Our shoppers have a great history of supporting community programs.” She reported more than 150 school children benefited from the program last year and said, “Our goal is to help even more needy stu- dents in our community get off to a good start during this back-to- school season.” This year’s campaign is a joint initiative between the PTC, the United Way of Ajax-Pickering and the Durham Child Poverty Task Force, which is also launching a similar campaign at the Oshawa Centre next week. “We’re looking at about 1,000 backpacks that are needed right across the region this year,” said Tammy Rogers of the task force. She added the task force will be working with the region’s two school boards to identify families throughout Durham that could ben- efit from the program. “We’re trying to encourage chil- dren to have a successful start to the school year,” she said, noting one in seven children in Durham live in poverty. “Not every family has the capac- ity to make these purchases,” added Annie Holmes, a member of the board of directors for the local Unit- ed Way. Supplies needed include pencils, crayons, scissors, loose-leaf paper, ballpoint pens, lined and blank notebooks, binders, rulers, glue sticks, erasers, lunch cases, calcula- tors and backpacks. Area residents interested in mak- ing a contribution can do so by dropping off donations at the three school buses, located in the centre court. The shopping centre is located on Hwy. 2 at Liverpool Road. Brandon Holmes was on hand Wednesday for the launch of a drive at the Pickering Town Centre to provide school sup- plies for needy children.

Pete Dundas, assistant director for the Region’s Emergency Medical Ser- vices, said the change “really won’t have any impact on Durham. We only use it for emergencies. We maybe use it six to a dozen times a year.” Durham would call for the air am- bulance for such incidents as a severe car accident or a rescue in the bush, Mr. Dundas adds. As of Oct. 1, Canadian Heli- copters Ltd. and Voyageur Air- ways Ltd. will take over air am- bulance service from the Province. Ontario Ministry of Health spokesman David Jensen said the two companies “will undergo a regular certifica- tion and compli- ance review” to ensure current service levels are maintained. However, On- tario Public Ser- vice Employees Union (OPSEU) president Leah Cas- selman said the changes will “Walker- tonize” the system and put lives at risk. Ms. Casselman added more than 100 OPSEU members face layoffs, adding few of the paramedics em- ployed by the ministry “have opted to go to the private companies”. However, Mr. Jensen said, “We were told by the two successful re- spondents that they’re willing and in- tend to offer jobs to the paramedics. Many (of the paramedics) are thinking of pursuing this option.” P PAGE 10 NEWS ADVERTISER, SUNDAY EDITION, August 19, 2001 We’re online at durhamregion.com Little impact expected in privatization of air ambulance F O C U S O N B U S I N E S S HEALTHY HABITS P I C K E R I N G ADVERTISING FEATURE Your ad could be in this space next Sunday.

The self-discipline and the confidence that I required as a dancer granted me the determination to pursue my own goals, without forgetting the importance of co-operation and teamwork. Dance has imparted to me lessons far more valuable than simply how to point my toes.

After having to repeatedly avoid my high kicks and out of control spins around the house, she decided that I should have a creative outlet for these expressions. I was enrolled in dance classes at the Denise Lester Dance Academy at the age of four, and have been going there ever since. I am now preparing to begin my fourteenth dance season, and am as passionate about dancing as ever. I started out in a class designed to encourage movement and creativity; it was perfectly suited to me. With a focus that lay not only on developing technique but also on having a good time, I was able to learn the basic elements of dance as well as enjoy the fun of the music and the new friends. My passion grew with every class, and by the time I had performed my first year-end recital, I knew I was ready to become more involved. Jazz and tap classes were the next step. These gave me a taste of different kinds of music and movement, and again my desire to further my hobby increased. Before I knew it, what had started out as one hour weekly of recreational dance had turned into a commitment of over fifteen hours a week at a competitive level. My hobby had become my true passion. The time I have spent at “the studio” has brought me many things. I have made lifelong friends with whom I have countless memories. My creative side has flourished, and my appreciation for all art forms is strong. I have maintained a high fitness level, and have developed excellent flexibility and endurance. I have learned many things about anatomy and the requirements and proper maintenance of the body. Annual examinations have allowed me to reach certification levels that qualify me to teach and as a result, I now have a part-time job sharing my love of dance with small children. Auditions have offered an opportunity to widen my realm of possibilities. Competition seasons have brought many medals, top score trophies, and scholarships, and the year-end recital, new costumes and a chance to perform in front of family and friends. Yet it is only now, as I am getting older and schoolwork is beginning to take priority during the evenings, that I can really stop to realize all that I have gained during my years at the Denise Lester Dance Academy. I know now that when I look back in a few years, it will not be the medals, or the costumes, or the performances that I will remember. It will be the qualities that I developed as a person. The characteristics that I have obtained are going to help me through life. I am willing to try new things and push my self to the limit. I am able to work both in a team situation as well as on my own. I can learn new things quickly. Because of my commitment to competitive level dancing, I understand that I have responsibilities and I have learned to prioritize. I recognize that winning is not everything, and that things do not always go according to plan. Yet most importantly, I have gained self-confidence. I realize my potential and am comfortable and happy with myself. Although I will be going away to university in a couple of years and will be leaving the studio behind, I know that these qualities will remain with me for a lifetime. A part of who I am owes itself to dance, and for that reason, I know that regardless of where I end up and what I end up doing, dance will always be a true passion. I will be dancing forever.

S., Unit #1 Ajax, Ontario L1S 3M4 (905) 683-1269 The O’Brien Dance Centre is located at 845 Westney Rd. in Ajax and was established in 1987 by its current owner and director, Karen Brittain. The Centre offers a wide variety of dance styles and programs for ages three to adult. The O’Brien Dance Centre was established with quality, versatility and creativity in mind. Quality - by keeping each class to a maximum of 12-16 participants, students can be assured of individual attention. This is important as no two students progress the same and must be trained with that in mind. Versatility - whether a student arrives for once a week recreational fun or for starting a professional dance career, the Centre offers several types of dance at all levels. Assistant teacher programs, public performances and further dance education programs all assist students to reach their goals. Creativity - by allowing students guided freedom of expression in their lesson, an atmosphere of fun and self confidence is developed. It is the Centre’s goal to teach the student today’s technique with the opportunity for self-expression. All students will benefit from dance as it is an enjoyable way to exercise, develop co- ordination and good posture. The concentration and self-discipline it develops will extend itself to other areas of life including the student’s academic years. The Centre offers the following programs: Creative Dance for 3 and 4 year olds, Pre-Ballet, Pre-Jazz and Pre-Tap for ages 4 and 5. Royal Academy of Dance Ballet for ages 6 and up. Jazz, Tap, Hip Hop and Acrobatics for ages 6 and up. And for adults there is Hip Hop and/or Ballroom Dance. An exam program for ages six and up is offered in Ballet, Jazz and/or Tap. The Ballet program follows the (Royal Academy of Dance) RAD Syllabus and the Jazz and Tap exam program is with Canadian Dance Teachers Association (CDTA). By invitation, students may join the competition program with “The Standing In Motion Dance Company”. All of these programs are carefully presented by a truly dedicated, talented and qualified team of teachers. Karen Brittain a dance educator for the past 30 years has her training in Ballet, Jazz and Tap and is a certified teacher of Canadian Dance Masters of America. “It is the love of movement and the challenge of training children that has brought me where I am now. Dance has been a rewarding benefit in my life. I enjoy the satisfaction of observing children year after year improve their dance skills and obtain their goals”. Marlene Engenheiro has been on staff at The OBDC for the past 10 years. She is a member BATD Associate, CDTA and a graduate of York University’s Dance Program. Her enthusiasm, and positive nature make her an asset to the teaching team and a favorite among children and adults. Linda Sarch has been specializing in the pre-school dance program at the Centre for 11 years. Miss Linda has a dance certificate with ADEPT and has completed her first year at the DMA Teacher’s Training School at The University of Buffalo. Her goal as a teacher is to instill a love and respect for dance in her young charges whom she calls “Great Beginnings”. Jessica Julien specializes in the Jazz and Tap exam preparation program through The Canadian Dance Teachers Association (CDTA) of which she is a member. Her many successes year after year ensures a rewarding experience for exam candidates. Jay T. Schramek brings a wealth of performance experience to the Centre. Previously Jay performed with Stratford Festival, The Elgin Theatre’s production of “Grease”, Stage West’s “Westside Story” and has recently joined the Toronto cast of “Mama Mia” now showing at the Hummingbird Centre. Jay graduated from the Dance program at Ryerson University and formerly was “Mr. Dance of Canada”. His Jazz, Tap and Hip Hop styles are always new and exciting for the students. The Centre welcomes Jay as he enters his fourth year on the teaching team. Andrea Lanigan is new to our team this season and will be teaching the RAD Ballet program. Andrea has her RAD teaching diploma, is a graduate of The George Brown College with a Performing Arts Diploma and has completed three years of study at the York University’s Fine Arts Dance Department. Andrea also brings several years of successful teaching experience to the Centre. Jessica O’Brien joins the teaching staff this season with 16 years of dance experience. Jessica has been training in the RAD Ballet Syllabus and the CDTA Jazz and Tap programs. She spent 8 years in the competition circuit winning many awards for her group and solo performances. She has completed her first year at the Dance Masters of America Teachers Training School at The University of Buffalo. Every season the Centre continues to experience a higher level of achievement not only through exam and competition results but the enthusiasm and commitment of the students and, of course, their parents. Without the highest level of dedication put forth by the O’Brien Dance Centre’s teaching staff these successes would not be possible. A salute to them, their endeavors and the remarkable team they have become. For more information you can phone the Dance Centre at 905-683-1269.

Above all, it is a gentle, non-competitive form of exercise that all children can enjoy. YOGA FOR ADULTS: Ashtanga Yoga (Power Yoga Vinyasa) Call Nicki Irwin for more information 416-330-1095. Mozart would agree. Science is telling us great things about the power of music, but you don’t have to interpret volumes of studies to see and delight in the positive effects of music and movement on your child’s development. Kindermusik does that for you -- with the most carefully researched, educationally sound, and child-centred musical learning experience available. Kindermusik encourages your child to think, feel, move, sing and speak creatively, imaginatively and with every ounce of giggle, wiggle, whisper or shout she can muster. And that’s the effect we’re looking for!

Oxford Brings Young Minds Alive! Oxford gives students a competitive advantage in school and in life. Giving students this “Learning edge” is the principle behind Oxford Learning Centres. Oxford provides personalized programs for all age groups from preschool through high school. Programs run throughout the year, after school and on Saturdays. We Bring All the Pieces Together. Success begins with a Diagnostic Assessment that identifies how each child learns, followed by an individual program to build his or her learning and academic skill, confidence and self esteem. We know that there is always a reason when a child fails to achieve his/her potential, even though that reason is not always obvious. So, we developed the most advanced dynamic assessment in the field. Through this assessment we determine how each student learns and then we create an individual learning program that taps into the child’s hidden success potential. This customized approach helps students develop more effective ways of learning. At Oxford, we teach our students to think and discover for themselves, and to be more organized, motivated and independent learners. Before long, our students begin to transfer these new skills to their school work and home work. The results are higher grades, improved confidence and greater self esteem! Innovative and Enriched Programs! Customized programs for every level.... and every student. Little Readers Preschool Program Ages 3 to 6 Half-days The unique Little Readers program: encourages creativity and academic excellence; offers small class settings with qualified teachers; and provides enriched learning skills in Phonics, Reading, Math, Writing, Spelling, Art & Computers.

You lived all of your youth playing road hockey, shagging fly balls, or playing football at the local park. Did you dream of one day being a big time athlete, at college, or university, or even maybe the pros? And as you left you teens, entered into college or took your first job, your playing days became supplemented by Sundays watching the NFL, and any other sports you could possibly get by simply aiming you remote control and clicking. When you met your wife, and planned a family, did you ever wonder what would happen when along came your first child and guess what? She didn’t like hockey or football. She couldn’t understand the attraction to lacrosse, and baseball was something the Jays did on TV. But there was one thing your daughter liked, just like both of mine do, and that was to dance. Now what Dad has a clue about dancing? Most of us were forced to dance a few slow songs around the auditorium floor at school functions. At family weddings we managed to dance with as many of the wedding party as possible, but what in the world would we know about dance...except, of course, the Stairway To Heaven ended every dance you had ever been too! I must admit, that I have an advantage. Jacqueline Kelly-Willis, of Jacqueline’s School of Dance is my wife. Without her guidance I might still be floundering on the learning curve of performing arts. Its trial by fire Dad! From the first time you daughter says that she wants to dance, your wife will pursue her daughter’s dream with all of the intensity that you had as a youngster pursing your dreams. You see, your wife, just like mine, had different dreams. Ones that involved ballet, or kicking up heels as a Rockette, or even tearing up the dance floor to Grease tunes. My advice to you is simple. Don’t fight it! I’ll tell you why. I have two girls, now aged seven and twelve. About nine years ago my eldest decided that ballet was going to happen on a Saturday and hockey was not. After signing up, purchasing her first pair of ballet slippers, tights, and bodysuit, I quickly began to realize that her week focused around her 1/2 hour Saturday classes. She moved over the next few years into more and more classes as they became available and her motor skills became more adept. By age 7 she had moved into competitive programs which allowed her to compete against dancers from all over Canada and the US. At the same time, the youngest one emulated everything that big sis could do. Tapping, jumping, cartwheels...you name it...the baby was doing it constantly. There was, and now is, no stopping her. As both of the girls became more involved in their dance careers, the competitions have become more and more frequent. Not that this is a bad thing you understand. You see dancers are unlike any athletes that we, as guys, have idolized. The familiar routine of an hour of practice for every game does not apply to any dancer. Dancers spend hundreds of hours training for their three minutes of glory. Leading up to that three minutes of glory, where your daughter is on stage in front of packed auditoriums of judges and fans there are no words that can properly describe the anxiety, intensity, and euphoria that you as a Dad feel as your girl awaits, performs, and succeeds in her passion...dance. Can you imagine what your daughter must feel? Not every time is a success. Sometimes it’s lazy arms. Sometimes they don’t present their routine to the audience with enough energy. Sometimes, they forget to smile. But every time they do walk, run or skip onto that stage, their heart is pounding, blood is pumping, and their body is prepared to entertain their adoring family and fellow dancers. How many of us can say we have ever done that? I have the luxury of being at Jacqueline’s School of Dance almost every day. Each time I go in I see the beaming faces of beautiful children each having the time of their life with a group of teachers whose passion is not only dance, but more importantly, children. Jacqueline has always aimed to make her dance studio a place for families to have fun. A place where children can go and express themselves as well challenge themselves if that is what they choose. My daughter, and my wife, have enlightened me to a world that I had never thought of. Performing arts. Not only is it their passion, but I too, along with legions of other Dads, take time off work, and rearrange business schedules to be at events that mean so much to all of my girls. They never let me, their dance teacher, themselves, or the other dancers in their group down. Their intent is pure and their effort is always complete. Competing in dance for fun and as a competitive outlet had played a huge part in making my children what they are today... beautiful, fit, well rounded people who will grow up to be leaders in their own generation. Having said all of this I’d like to give you new dancing Dads a few tips that I think might help out: 1. Learn the difference between ballet, jazz, tap, acro, pointe, and lyrical. 2. Learn which way a body suit goes on, and understand that the seams on their tights hurt their little toes. 3. Learn about hair. How to make a bun, what a bang is, how to put it in hair clips, how to wrap a hair elastic, what the heck a scruchie is, and most importantly the value of hair gel. 4. Learn and understand the difference between tutu’s and crinolines. 5. Learn the costume must be complete every time, you can have her differ from the others on stage. That’s just for the first couple of months. Before you know it your little ones will be asking for ballet barres in your basement, mirrors behind the barres, and more cool bodysuits (like the big girls wear). I have spent a lot of time with my daughters and my wife in this activity. I am definitely a better person for it. You will be too!

Canadian national team shortstop Chris Jones got the Rebels off on the right track in the first inning as he lined a single into right field off a Randy Underwood pitch. Second baseman Jason Yoshida then sin- gled to right field to cash in Jones with the game’s first run. In the Rebel’s third in- ning, Jones again led off with a single, and one out later catcher Mike Ding- man’s one-bagger sent Jones to third. A wild pitch scored Jones for the team’s second run. The Heat battled back in the bottom of the fourth when second baseman James Hurlburt’s two- out single to cen- tre scored short- stop John Butler and first base- man Dave Hoff- man. The Rebels regained the lead in the sixth in- ning when left- fielder Tom Watson singled home centre-fielder Scott McKinley, who had tripled down the left field line. Un- derwood struck out the next three batters to limit the damage. Rebels’ pitcher John Sharpe struck out the first two batters in the sixth be- fore walking Hoffman and giving up a single to Hurl- burt. Catcher Craig Em- manuel’s single scored Hoffman, but Hurlburt was called out at home. In the top of the seventh, after Ryan Swift took over for Underwood, the Heat’s defence failed them. Both Jones, who reached on an error, and Yoshida, who had singled, scored when Mike Dingman stroked a single. McKinley doubled to score Dingman and crossed the plate himself on a second Heat error for a 7-3 Rebel victory. DURHAM —Area track and field athletes posted solid results while com- peting against many of the top young U.S. and Canadian competitors in Her- shey, Pennsylvania over the weekend. Several Ajax and Pickering athletes took part in the annual Hershey’s Track and Field Program North American final this past Saturday. None came back with medals, but all finished in the top 10 in their respective events. Nakisha Mayers-Watson, of Ajax, finished fourth in the girls’ 11-12 100- metre dash in a time of 13.938 seconds. Cheria Morgan, of Pickering, placed fifth in the girls’ 11-12 long jump with a leap of seven-feet, three inches. Brendan Morgan, of Pickering, fin- ished fifth in the boys’ nine-10 200m race in a time of 30.822 seconds. Evan Harvey, Graeme Murphy, James Thompson and Jamal Lindo — all of Pickering — finished seventh in the boys’ 13-14 4-x-100m relay. The foursome completed the race in a time of 51.762 seconds.
