Composting program gets final g reen light New program officially launches By Erin Hatfield Staff Writer DURHAM — It’s go time for green bins for all of Durham. The Region held the official launch of its organic waste collec- tion program at regional headquar- ters in Whitby on Wednesday. “First there was the blue box, now there is the green bin, anoth- er colourful diversionary tactic in the battle against waste,” Durham Chairman Roger Anderson said. “Of course, the success of our program depends on citizen par- ticipation. But previous experience has shown us that residents are not only willing, but eager, to be part of the waste solution. They want expanded recycling and diversion opportunities.” The green bin program has been three years in the making accord- ing to Cliff Curtis, commissioner of works. It has already been rolled out in Uxbridge, Brock, Clarington, Scu- gog and a small part of Pickering, but the Region was limited by the amount of composting capacity it had access to. “We have recently entered into a contract with Miller Waste to build a composting facility in Pickering,” Mr. Curtis said. “So we now have enough capacity to roll out to the re- But announcement comes up short on ‘momentous changes’ By Crystal Crimi Staff Writer DURHAM — School boards in Durham are getting some extra money this year. Although welcomed, an extra $600 million for education coming this school year did not come as much of a surprise to the Durham public and Catholic school boards. Recently announced by Education Minister Sandra Pupatello, the in- creased funding is to help support government targets for higher learn- ing and graduation rates. The announcement was met with “muted optimism” by Michael Bar- rett, chairman of the Durham Dis- trict School Board. “I was hoping for some momen- tous changes,” said Trustee Barrett, who made his way to Toronto to hear the June 12 announcement. “It was what we had anticipated,” added Patricia Manson, director of education for the Durham Catholic District School Board. “I think it will increase our budget and it appears we will be able to honour all of our collective agree- ments under the provincial frame- work.” The increased investment should mean about $14 million, or four-per cent more, for the public board and an estimated $7 million extra for the Catholic board. “It’s going in the right direction... I just wish the ship was moving a little faster,” said Trustee Barrett. He noted there was only a two- per cent increase for transportation costs. Although the announcement contained a funding formula to bet- ter recognize the true cost of teacher salaries, it takes away from other envelopes, said Trustee Barrett. “It didn’t meet my expectations because she (the minister) shuffled things around,” he said. “The trans- Millions more for Durham’s school boards See Board, Page 2 See Region, Page 2 maining municipalities of Pickering, Ajax, Whitby and Oshawa.” It begins July 1 in those areas and will see weekly collection of green bin and blue box items, while garbage collection moves to every other week, with a four-bag limit. In north Durham and Clarington, garbage collection remains weekly and blue box bi-weekly until current contracts expire. Mr. Curtis anticipates the pro- gram will be well received. “Most people are quite interested in doing the environmentally correct thing and reducing the amount of garbage,” Mr. Curtis said. “The (real) upside to this is it will be turned into compost which can be re- used on the soil.” Marcel Brunelle, chair- man of public works, said there is no going back to the old manner of dealing with waste now that green bins are online. “We have turned a cor- ner and we are moving in a direction now that is immutable,” Mayor Brunelle said. “We can’t go back to the old way so we have kind of closed the door on that. And that isn’t a bad thing.” A goal of 40-per cent diversion by 2007 is achievable with public participation, Mayor Brunelle said. “It won’t happen by itself; it is one that we all have to have some pa- tience with one another,” he said. “There will be trips and falls and there will be things that don’t work out the way we planned but we will get through it… we hope the public gets involved and makes themselves part of the solution to a very thorny problem.” The Region is delivering 132,000 green bins to residents across Dur- ham between June 12 and 18. The green bin kit includes a curb- side green bin that can be wheeled to the curb and has a lockable lid, a smaller green container for use under the kitchen sink, an instruc- tional CD video, a sample package of biodegradable compostable liner bags, and a new waste collection calendar. Residents are encouraged to review the instructional video, as it contains information pertaining to the most frequently asked ques- tions.

Trustee Barrett said one of the highlights in the announcement was finding out some special-edu- cation funding was not going to be removed as rumoured, and in fact, more would be added. “There is a need for quicker as- sessments and some of the money will be used for that as well,” said Trustee Barrett. Money has also been included to recognize pocket growth in com- munities, which could assist with the construction of a new north Os- hawa high school and the Pickering High School expansion. Trustee Barrett added he wants more details on how to apply for the funding. Pocket growth is not a chal- lenge currently facing the Catholic board. “And they still haven’t come up with a formula for opening and school closures,” said Trustee Bar- rett, adding it will be four years this fall that school boards have been without a building formula. Final funding numbers were ex- pected by the board Friday, June 16, but Trustee Barrett said once they get the figures, it will take board staff a week to decipher them. “We’ll be into July before we start to develop any sort of draft budgets,” he said.

In 2003 there were 759 cases in Dur- ham, while that number rose to 953 by 2005 and is continuing to grow. The highest incidents of chlamydia occur between the ages of 15 and 19. There are often no symptoms, con- tributing to the rise in STIs, according to Lori Ullius, a public health nurse with the Durham Region health depart- ment. Similarly, gonorrhea numbers are ris- ing, with 99 cases in 2003 and 118 in 2005. Syphilis grew from seven cases in 2003 to 50 by 2005. Also, there were 11 new cases of HIV-AIDS in 2005 and teen pregnancy rates in Durham are higher than the provincial rates, with 700 teens becoming pregnant each year. In light of these statistics Ms. Ullius said the importance of education and the role of local sexual health clinics is crucial in the community. “(Sexual health clinics) are a well- used service,” Ms. Ullius said. “We are busy.” Durham Region sexual health clinics are staffed by nurses and physicians to provide information, education and services about healthy sexuality, birth control, fertility awareness, pregnancy testing, safer sex methods, HIV-AIDS testing and counselling, sexually trans- mitted infections-diseases testing and treatment, contraceptive services coun- selling, and referrals. There are clinics in Oshawa, Pickering and Uxbridge. At each clinic, Ms. Ullius said nurses talk to clients about why they are visit- ing. The clinics perform pregnancy tests and provide birth control, mainly for clients 15 to 19 years of age. Ms. Ullius said the clinic will treat clients up to the age of 24, but encourages them to find a doctor. “With STIs, many feel they would prefer to come here,” Ms. Ullius said, adding the clinics will provide STI test- ing for all ages. STI medication is provided by the provincial Ministry of Health. “We don’t try to convince them of anything,” Ms. Ullius said. “We just give them clear information.” “It is great that they came to the clinic because that means they are taking re- sponsibility for their own sexual health,” she said.

Metroland Durham Profit ranks City as eighth best in Canada By Danielle Milley Staff Writer PICKERING — Companies looking to grow their business should consider taking up resi- dence in Pickering. That’s according to a new ranking from Profit maga- zine that names Pickering as one of Canada’s best cities for growth companies. It came in at eighth place, just behind Waterloo and ahead of Mis- sissauga and Oakville, respec- tively. Other municipalities on the list included Vancouver and Markham. No other Durham municipality made the national ranking. “We’re pleased to be recog- nized nationally and certainly by a magazine of this calibre,” said Lynn Winterstein, manag- er, corporate promotions and economic development. Profit magazine cites several factors that make a city good for business: close proximity to major transportation hubs and post-secondary institutions; a large and thriving population of young, motivated knowledge workers; and easy access to big investors. “I am very proud that Pickering is getting much de- served national recognition as a preferred place to do business,” said Mayor Dave Ryan. “Being acknowl- edged as one of Can- ada’s best cities for business reaffirms the ongoing and col- laborative work we are doing with the business community through the Mayor’s Business Advisory Council (BAC) and the City’s partnership with the Ajax Pickering Board of Trade.” The magazine made special mention that Pickering is ex- pected to lead the country in population growth over the next 10 to 15 years. When asked if she thought the ranking would make it easier to attract busi- nesses to Pickering, Ms. Win- terstein said, “it certainly isn’t going to hurt. “Very positive results could come from being recognized nationally. It will draw atten- tion to us. It makes people think we’re on a different plane... we’re moving forward. I think people will start to pay atten- tion to what is happening in Pickering.” Ms. Winterstein said staff has been work- ing hard the last few years to encourage in- vestment in Pickering and to foster relation- ships with Pickering’s business company. “Getting our mu- nicipality on the map in a positive light is good news,” she said. Pickering is home to two of Canada’s top 40 fastest growing companies: Air IQ, an industry leader in the telematics sector, and Waste Services Inc., a rapidly grow- ing waste and recycling services provider. Pickering is also home to a thriving energy sector that in- cludes Ontario Power Genera- tion, Atomic Energy of Canada Limited, Eco-tec, Black and Mc- Donald, Areva and Intellimeter.

Durham Regional Police said the 32- year-old restaurant employee was taking receipts from the previous day to a CIBC branch on Westney Road North around noon when she was approached by two masked men who demanded she hand over the cash. When she refused one of the suspects grabbed her from behind while the other snatched the deposit bag, police said. The woman was pushed to the ground and the men fled in a red Honda that had been stolen earlier in Toronto. Police are looking for two black men aged 18 to 20 who wore bulky clothing and concealed their faces with bandan- as.

Woman pushed to ground in Ajax, robbed by masked suspects 14th annual Canadian Aviation Expo arriving By Jillian Follert Staff Writer DURHAM — The roaring engine of an F-16 fighter jet makes quite a racket, but that’s not how Steve Nich- ols would choose to describe it. “I call it music,” he says with a chuckle. As one of three directors of the Ca- nadian Aviation Expo, Mr. Nichols is eagerly anticipating the 14th annual show set to soar into Oshawa from June 23 to 25. He is especially thrilled that this year’s event will feature a noisy spe- cial guest -- the 416 Tactical Fighter Sqaudron. “That’s this year’s highlight, it’s a marvelous thing for the City of Os- hawa,” Mr. Nichols said. Founded in 1941 and flying the City of Oshawa colours, the 416 Tactical Fighter Squadron took to the skies during the Second World War and the Gulf War, among other active duties. The first Canadian to lead the squadron was Oshawa legend Lloyd Chadburn, who took command in 1942. Later this year, the squadron will stand down and suspend opera- tions, but not before one final salute to Oshawa. The F-16s will join the expo air shows on Friday, Saturday and Sun- day. Organizers expect more than 20,000 people from all over Canada and the U.S. to attend this year’s event, which gives aviation enthusiasts the chance to see hundreds of aircraft and exhib- its up close, meet pilots, enjoy aircraft and helicopter rides and take in daily air shows. This year’s expo air shows are also set to include world famous wing- walker Teresa Stokes, aerobatic pilots Gene Soucy and Pete McLeod, pow- ered paragliders and of course, the Canadian Forces Snowbirds. An expo favourite, the nine-mem- ber aerobatics team can reach flying speeds of 590 km/hr. Mr. Nichols said the aim of the event has always been to keep aviation alive, and show people that it can be fun, safe and even inexpensive. While Canada is home to many other aviation events, he said Osha- wa’s stands out for its interactive ap- proach. “You go to the Toronto International Air Show, watch it, and its over. Here, you watch, then you meet the pilots, touch the planes, smell the exhaust,” he said. “It’s very hands on, that’s what people love.” Whether you drive or fly, on-site parking is free at the expo. For those who arrive by land, an adult day pass is $20, while youth and seniors are $15 each. A weekend pass is $30 for adults, $25 for youth and seniors and free for children under the age of seven.

Taking it to the skies durhamregion.comA/P PAGE 6 THE NEWS ADVERTISER, JUNE 18, 2006 EDITORIAL LETTER TO THE EDITOR Hwy. 407 extension must be built Music to our ears. That’s what a consultant working for the Ministry of Transportation sounded like when he addressed Ajax council Monday night for an update on the extension of Hwy. 407 from Pickering, through Ajax and on to Whitby and Oshawa before meeting Hwy. 35/115 in Clarington. Doug Allingham said what Durham residents want to hear: after investigating all the options for addressing the conges- tion issues in the eastern GTA, the extension of Hwy. 407 would do the trick in terms of addressing the traffic glut in the western and the eastern end of Durham Region. While the traffic issue is complex and Mr. Allingham said “no one single solution can solve all the problems,” he clearly pointed to the Hwy. 407 extension as the key ingredient in the mix. Commuters know too well how hard it is to get into the big city in the morning and return home at night without encountering bumper-to-bumper traffic. A drive that should take 20 minutes in ideal conditions becomes an hour-long endurance test, impacts quality of life and hits the wallet as well. As Mr. Allingham noted it’s not just residents on their way to work impacted by congestion on the highway. He said goods worth $540 million pass through Ajax, and by exten- sion all of Durham, on the 401 each day. Similar numbers for other areas of southern Ontario reveal that Hwy. 401 is one of the most important economic corridors, not just in Durham or Ontario, but in Canada. The efficient movement of goods through our region is of vital importance to the growth of our economy and Cana- da’s. Extending the 407 isn’t a magic bullet. The regional and local road networks also need to be expanded and improved. And, moving as many goods and people as possible onto trains is important too. But, speaking of the latter, Mr. Alling- ham said the rail system can only handle so many people and freight containers. The key is the road and, in particular, the highway system. Ye s, the environmental assessment on the extension, cur- rently under way, will take another two years or so. And it might be another decade before the work is finished and car and truck drivers have some relief. It’s certainly high time, however, that a provincial political party champions this issue and commits to seeing the exten- sion through to completion. A provincial election is just more than a year away and this should be a hot election issue. New waste system a ‘recipe’ for dumping To the editor: I applaud the decision to expand the recycling program. However, since my property tax bill has more than tripled in the last 20 years, I have to ask why I’m also putting more out of my own pocket for the service. A portion of my property taxes supposedly goes to garbage removal and recycling but, already, I pay over that to dump what’s neatly termed ‘excess’ household waste. Now, I have to buy special bags for the ‘green’ waste; I’m told to split recy- clables over extra blue boxes, all of which I have to buy; and, if I accumulate more than two bags of household garbage a week, I’m going to have to shell out $1.50 a bag for my sins. By all means, recycle and reuse, but I think what’s now been introduced is a recipe for black market garbage tags and overflowing ditches.

I t is alarming how many bikers can be seen on the streets and sidewalks of Durham with their cranium exposed, prime candidates for massive, life-threat- ening head injuries. But even more alarming is the number of adults who choose to not only endanger themselves by riding without a helmet but also endanger the health and safety of our children by stating through example that helmets are not really necessary. In Canada, three provinces, British Co- lumbia, New Brunswick and Nova Scotia, have bicycle helmet legislation requiring that they be worn by cyclists regardless of age, while Ontario and Alberta have legisla- tion that applies only to young riders. According to the Ontario Ministry of Transportation, cyclists over 18 are “en- couraged” to wear helmets, but are not required by law. Having legislation which applies only to riders under 18 undermines the message of the importance of helmet safety, and is, quite simply, dangerous. Especially consid- ering that according to the Canadian Safety Council, more than half of all cyclists killed are over the age of 20. The legislation, as it applies to young people, falls under the Highway Traffic Act but is seldom enforced according to Dur- ham Regional Police. Officers are more apt to stop and talk to children who are seen without a helmet as opposed to issuing a fine, according to David Selby, a Durham police spokesman. He said the department, in co-operation with the Region of Durham, actively pro- motes bicycle safety. The department website has a link to safety tips for bike safety, including how to buy and wear a helmet. Its most active education campaign is the kid’s safety vil- lage. The village is a pint-sized version of a real town located in Whitby. According to Constable Anna Jaciuk, nearly 10,000 kids, including 5,000 Grade 3 students, visit the village each year. Const. Jaciuk sits down with the children and makes sure their helmets fit properly. But no matter how much the police try to educate our children, the strongest lesson comes by example. “Part of the program is no matter how old you are you should wear a helmet on your head,” Const. Jaciuk said. “I tell them I always wear (my helmet).

The Women’s Institute was originally founded in 1897 by Adelaide Hoodless to facilitate the education rural women received in matters of homemaking and child-rearing. By the early part of the last century most communities had a local chapter of the Women’s Institute. One of the earliest groups to organize was the Greenwood-Kinsale branch. Around 1925 ‘The Institute’ formed a Standing Committee for Historical Re- search and Current Events in order to have a greater insight into the lives and thoughts of their ancestors. Then, in the mid-1930s, Lady Tweedsmuir, wife of the governor general of Canada (Sir John Buchan), challenged the Institute women to preserve their community history in the form of a Local History Scrapbook. This activity became a very popular project and for the 50th anni- versary of the Women’s Institute, these local histories officially became The Tweedsmuir History Books. Each chapter’s Tweedsmuir History would include a variety of information that might include: Local Women’s In- stitute Branch; Earliest settlers in the area; Agricultural practices and indi- vidual farms; Industries that formed the basis of the local economy; Local personalities such as war veterans; and Social institutions and public buildings, such as churches, schools and commu- nity centres. The Pickering Public Library has original copies of the Greenwood-Kin- sale and Brougham Tweedsmuir His- tories and copies of the Pickering and Claremont Histories. This article and the photo are cour- tesy Pickering Public Library local his- tory staff. Items appear on the third Sunday of each month.

A trip into our past Ajax / Pickering Zone 1 Water Storage Facility Class Environmental Assessment - City of Pickering Notice is hereby given to all interested individuals and parties that the Regional Municipality of Durham has completed the Class Environmental Assessment for the Ajax / Pickering Zone 1 Water Storage Facility. This study involved determining how best to provide an additional 25,000 cubic metres of immediate water storage for the Ajax / Pickering Zone 1 Pressure District. The site of the storage facility must also be to accommodate a future 25,000 cubic-metre expansion and a pumping station. The study resulted in the selection of an in-ground reservoir as the preferred method of water storage. Furthermore, in conjuction with the Toronto and Region Conservation Authority, a preferred in-ground reservoir site, located immediately east of Sideline 22 and approximately 150 metres south of Taunton Road, was selected over eight other possible locations. The site is located upon land currently managed by the Ontario Realty Corporation (ORC). Therefore, for construction to proceed, land acquisition from the ORC would be required for both the reservoir site, which will be approximately three hectares in size, and for the connecting Zone 1 water main unless the selected alignment is within the road allowance. Disposition of land by ORC would be an undertaking subject to their Class EA process, as described in their document “Class Environmental Assessment Process for Management Board Secretariat & Ontario Realty Corporation,” dated April 28, 2004. In order to streamline the Class EA process and avoid duplication of effort, the assessment of the Region’s acquisition/ORC’s disposition of land has been conducted in this Class EA. Any comments, questions or concerns specifically regarding land acquisition by the Region/disposition by the ORC are welcome and can be directed to either of the project contacts listed below.

It seems that students who attend summer classes not only achieve higher levels of academic skills (reading comprehension, writing and math) but also develop a positive outlook on school. Most parents (and classroom teachers) think the opposite is true. Imagine being able to improve motivation by continuing some formal education programming throughout the summer. The reasons why this happens are both simple and complex. Learning consists of a series of purposeful activities: activities we can control and direct. Children must learn that it is possible to control and direct their own learning activities. Often, this is seen as an entirely new idea. Too many leave this control in the hands of the education system. They feel that it is their teachersʼ responsibility to ʻteachʼ. They feel that teaching is active while learning is passive. This unfortunate mindset often carries over into the summer and winter holidays. If learning Maintain momentum over summer by R.N.Whitehead Ph.D. is the direct responsibility of the teacher and the classroom, then a vacation from these permits the student to let all responsibility for school and learning passively drift away. Education suffers and students drift backwards. They lose the academic gains that they made during the previous year but, more importantly, they lose their ability and motivation to problem- solve and integrate information - to learn. As they drift, they lose self-esteem because they have relinquished control and direction and have lost key skills and learning strategies. Remember that school and school-based learning are artifi cially constructed ideas. Even with a great teacher and an interesting program, it is hard enough to get kids interested in problem-solving and clear writing. Throw in a wind-down month before summer holidays add two months of mindless holidays and follow this by a ʻramp-upʼ month (September) and you have unmotivated and unfocused students. It is no wonder that kids resent returning to school and see it as in intrusion on their lives. However, for kids who have attended a properly constructed summer program - like those at The Oxford Learning Centres - one that will help them develop their thinking and learning habits while reinforcing and building upon existing academic skills, this loss of momentum and motivation does not occur. Summer allows wonderful new possibilities. It is an opportunity for our children to develop new skills, make new friends and experience new challenges. If parents take care to blend both recreation and academics, summer can be a wonderful growth time for all. Students will be prepared physically, emotionally and academically for a successful return to school in the fall. Our wish for you and your children this summer - have fun - be safe - learn. Oxford Learning is Canadaʼs leading provider of supplemental and enrichment education services. They will design as individualized learning program for each child to keep them sharp over the summer and get a head start on next year.

On Monday, a delegation from Alberta will visit Durham to dis- cuss possible partnerships with local manufacturing and supply companies. “This represents a tremendous opportunity for Durham’s manu- facturers to capitalize on the $120 billion being invested in Alberta’s oil sands project,” says Liisa Ika- valko, Durham Region’s senior economic development officer. Put on by the Canadian Man- ufacturers and Exporters asso- ciation, Monday’s workshop will showcase the opportunities for those in key sectors, like structural steel, machining and metal fabri- cating, maintenance, and general supply for manufacturing. “For our companies, this is an opportunity similar to exporting but without the language, cur- rency and documentation barri- ers,” Ms. Ikavalko said. “Durham Region has the capabilities to service the needs associated with a project of this nature. Our ex- pertise in metal fabrication, ma- terials handling equipment and manufacturing tooling is ideally suited.” The workshop, which will take place on Monday, June 19 at the Ontario University Institute of Te chnology, will provide an over- view of Alberta oil sands develop- ment over the next decade as well as presentations on partnership opportunities in key sectors. Durham eyes Alberta’s riches AJAX — An extra lane is being added in both directions on Hwy. 401 between Westney Road and Harwood Avenue. With the additional lane, there will be five lanes going in each direction between Westney and Harwood. “We’re adding one lane and the opening we’re hoping for late this fall,” says Will MacKenzie, a spokes- man with the provincial Transporta- tion Ministry. “Final paving will be next year.” In addition to the extra lanes, other work includes repaving exist- ing lanes, relocating sections of the existing noise barrier and realigning the concrete median and Westney Road ramps. “When we add a lane, the whole stretch gets paved.

WEEKEND The Pickering Pirates of the Ontario Senior Select Baseball Association are in Toronto to meet the Bloor Jays today (Sunday) at 1 p.m. The Pirates are 3-7 entering the doubleheader. Pickering student wins division against riders from across Ontario PICKERING — Racing through tough terrain and long distances didn’t slow down Laura Bietola at the recent Louis Garneau Ontario High School Mountain Bike Cham- pionships in Hardwood Hills, near Barrie. The championships attracted more than 450 students (Grade 6 to 12) from across Ontario in four categories: Elementary, midget, junior and senior. Bietola, 14, representing Valley View Public School in Pickering, raced to victory in the female el- ementary division at the champi- onships. She completed in the 7.5- kilometre course in 22 minutes, 23 seconds. In the same event last year, Bi- etola finished fifth. As preparation for the high school championships, Bietola competed in the four-race Walker Woods High School Series, placing first overall. She’s been racing her mountain bike for the past three years, en- tering the first Trek Enduro Kids Race at age 11 in 2003. She’s been hooked ever since. For the past two years, Bietola’s been a member of the ‘FlyGurlz’ women’s mountain bike club. She rides four to five times a week and spends six to 10 hours on the bike each week. Last summer, Bietola raced in the Ontario Cup series in the ‘Min- imee’ category (for riders ages 13 and 14), placing third in Ontario. Mountain bike racing is a family affair for the Bietolas. Her father, John, who’s been riding for the past 25 years, serves as her coach. Her sister Kelly, 19, raced last year at the 2005 Canada Summer Games in Regina, Saskatchewan. Later this summer, Bietola will compete in the Ontario Summer Games where she will compete in three mountain bike racing dis- ciplines: cross-country, time trial and team relay. All told, Bietola expects to com- pete in approximately 30 races, including road races, this year. She says her short-term future goal is to follow in the path of her sister Kelly to be part of Team On- tario at the 2009 Canada Summer Games in PEI. Bietola pedals to mountain bike title A.J. Groen/ News Advertiser photo Laura Bietola, a student at Valley View Public School in Greenwood, captured the elementary division title at the recent Louis Garneau Ontario High School Mountain Bike Championships in Hardwood Hills, near Barrie. The championships is one of approximately 30 races for Bietola this season. PICKERING — The Pickering Green Lightning girls’ under-10 rep soccer team needed, ironically, a goal by its goalkeeper to subdue Oshawa in the final of the recent Peterborough Challenge Cup tour- nament. With the championship final 1-1 at the end of regulation time, the game proceeded to penalty kicks. Pickering’s captain, Siena Maxwell, scored first for Pickering, but it was goalkeeper Laura Dougall who blasted a shot past Oshawa’s goalie to win the tournament for Pickering. Oshawa scored first in regulation time, but a determined Pickering squad controlled the ball and was eventually rewarded with the tying goal by Cierra Kaefer. Pickering’s Crystina Kertsos was awarded most valuable player hon- ours for her outstanding efforts throughout the tournament. In the semifinals, the Green Light- ning cruised past Darlington 3-1. Pickering advanced through round-robin play after going unde- feated against Peterborough, Ajax and Brams United. Dougall was out- standing in net, earning shutouts in all three games. Other team members are Gabriel- la Banfield, Courtney Chiasson, Vic- toria Rumboldt, Vena Kurup, Kelsey Sullivan, Amanda Chetram, Kath- leen More and Sarah Ladouceur. Dominique Bond-Flazsa missed the tournament. Vance Palache and Graeme Banfield coach the team. Sports briefs JUNE 18, 2006 [ Volleyball ] Summer camps on the horizon DURHAM — With summer fast approaching, the Durham Attack Volleyball Club is preparing for its annual summer camps. For boys and girls, the initial in- door camp will run July 24-28, while a second one is slated for Aug. 8-11, while those interested in beach vol- leyball will have the opportunity to participate in an outdoor camp at Devil’s Den in Ashburn Aug. 14-18. Indoor camps will hit the court at J. Clarke Richardson Collegiate and Notre Dame Catholic Second- ary School in Ajax, with the goal to give campers the chance to learn the necessary tools to play the game and become a very well rounded volleyball player. All programs will be conducted primarily by Attack president Scott Burrows, who will serve a lead coach, while current Attack U16 coach Chris Williamson is the camp director. Each day runs from 8:15 a.m. to 3:30 p.m., and every 12 campers will be accompanied by one head coach and one assistant. The head coach- es will be Attack coaches from the various levels, while the assistants will be volunteers from the U17 and U18 Attack programs.
