The City reached its limit at the executive committee meeting May 23 when members approved of a third establishment. The as- yet-unnamed business is to be located at the northwest corner of Bayly Street and Salk Road. Over the past few months, is- sues relating to body rub par- lours have been before council on several occasions and have almost always attracted objec- tions from residents. There was no one present Tuesday to speak against the application. “There is, in fact, an industri- al-commercial plaza adjacent to this building and there has been no objection to this application. On that basis alone I’m going to support this application as the third and final establishment of this kind in the city,” said Mayor Dave Ryan. The current bylaw regulat- ing body rub parlours limits the number to three; there are al- ready two licensed operations in the city. Another proposal came for- ward to take the third spot, but was refused by council April 3. That decision was appealed to the Ontario Municipal Board, but a hearing has not yet been scheduled. A planner representing that applicant asked for the Bayly and Salk application to be deferred ALL EYES ARE ON THEM Mike Pochwat/ News Advertiser photo PICKERING — It was a special day for Wendy Whitley, whose dad George Donison came all the way from Florida to visit her.

The exhibit, which was origi- nally created in 1996 by Mervin Witter, the director of the Ontario branch of the Canadian Human Rights Commission, draws people of all backgrounds to share in dis- cussion of important human rights and equality issues, while cele- brating the art of African Canadian artists. Titled as ‘Black History Through Art Exhibition’ in its first year, the exhibit ‘Colourblind?’ has since evolved in more ways than just a simple name change. The first change is the theme with which the exhibit associates itself. This year more than 30 paint- ings all centre around the theme of breaking down the barriers of discrimination. Also, the exhibit is now the larg- Art exhibit keeps breaking down barriers ✦ See Colourblind, Page 5 For more information about the Smoke-Free Ontario Act call Durham Region Health Department Environmental Help Line 905 723-3818 or 1 888 777-9613 ext. 2188 The Smoke-Free Ontario Act is part of the provincial strategy to improve the health of Ontarians by: The Act: Makes all workplaces and public places in Ontario 100% smoke-free.

The clerk was not hurt. ‘Determined’ to boost numbers, build permanent home By Keith Gilligan Staff Writer AJAX — It’s been a long fight, but it’s one that members of “Ajax’s Anglican church” aren’t prepared to lose. For almost 10 years, members of Holy Trinity Anglican Church have been with- out a building to call their own. While it will be a few more years before a per- manent home is found, congregation members aren’t giving up the battle. “We’re Ajax’s Anglican church,” says church warden Lynn James. “We’re de- termined to keep it going. There’s no question of us folding up and leaving. We want to maintain an Anglican church here in Ajax.” There’s been a Holy Trinity Anglican Church in the Town for 50 years. For most of that time, the church building was on Kings Crescent. But, in Septem- ber 1996, the building was declared un- safe, forcing the congregation to move. For most of the time since then, space was rented at 400 Monarch Ave. How- ever church members will worship at Bolton C. Falby Public School on Falby Court starting June 4. “Essentially at the moment, we’re leaving 400 Monarch. The rent was very expensive and it depleted our resources,” Ms. James states. Holy Trinity owns land at the south- east corner of Bayly Street and Salem Road. When a church is to be construct- ed is still to be determined, Ms. James notes. “The new building, I believe, was hung up in a certain amount of red tape. There were difficulties getting various plan- ning approvals,” she says. “Considerable funds have to be raised before we could make a decision like that. We’re not in a great hurry. “We don’t want to make a mistake that could end up costing us money. We have the school for worship. The rent is rea- sonable. It gives us time to decide when to move forward.” Until the future of the church is more settled, fundraising efforts have been put on hold. “We’ll recommence once we’ve settled again,” says Ms. James. The congregation has about 200 mem- bers, but, “hopefully, we’ll become more active,” she says. The hope is to also entice more people to join the church and “rediscover their Anglican roots. “A church group is fairly dynamic,” Ms. James notes. “There are losses and there are gains. “A t Monarch, we became a very to- gether group. This move will have some negative effects. We’ll do what we can to try to modify that. We don’t want to let it slip away. I think so. There’s very much a sense of that.” She’s been a member of the congrega- tion for 20 years. “The word often used by the con- gregation is family. It’s like a family for many people there,” Ms. James states. “We want to keep it going to the point where we raised $60,000 in two month to that end. It shows how strongly people feel within the church community.” The money was all raised internally. Sue Hewlett, another congregation member, says “this temporary move (to the Falby school) is the beginning of Holy Trinity’s revitalization program.” The church also saw the retirement of Father Ted Bartlett at the end of April, with Father Doug Jacques now serving as interim minister. “He will be with us until we get into a search for a new minister.” June is “Health Pregnancy” MonthBefore Your Health Pregnancy Makes a DifferenceBefore Planning a Pregnancy?

But even as he recounts his struggles since nearly los- ing his life after interrupting a break-in at his Ajax home last year, Martin Pedersen betrays little emotion — ex- cept for moments when the anger flashes. With resolve he quells the rage, pressing on. “Everybody who is close to me or is somehow involved in my life has felt the effects,” said Mr. Pedersen, 23. “Physi- cally I’m healed but mentally it’s really done a number on me and my family and my girlfriend.” There are physical remind- ers, too: A ferocious scar that runs from his pelvis to his chest, intersecting in a “T” with the incision that runs horizontally from armpit to armpit, proof of the five- hour emergency surgery in which his ribs were pulled apart and a surgeon worked frantically to stitch his still- beating heart; a splotch of gnarled tissue where the bul- let pierced his back; other welts that show where tubes drained fluid from his chest as he lay in intensive care. Mr. Pedersen was beaten and shot — the .22-calibre slug is still wedged between the ribs on the left side of his chest -- after he interrupted a break-in at his family’s Adams Drive home on the evening of Nov. 2, 2005. He had just returned to the house after leaving his family’s business when he confronted four sus- pects who’d broken in, appar- ently lured by rumours there were guns in the house. “I came in the house and I noticed my room door had been kicked in,” Mr. Pedersen recalled Friday. He went to the room and found a teen inside. The two came together and the fight was on. As they struggled the intruder called out to accom- plices who joined in, beating Mr. Pedersen with baseball bats. “They demanded guns,” he said. “I said, ‘I don’t know what you’re talking about.’” Then it occurred to him: The youths must be after an- tique firearms his father kept. “These guns wouldn’t work if you tried to use them,” Mr. Pedersen said. Bluffing, Mr. Pedersen con- vinced the intruders to allow him to go into the garage, where he made a break for it. He believes that’s when he was shot. The bullet entered his back and assumed a tragic trajec- tory inside his torso, piercing his liver, both lungs and his diaphragm, as well as pass- ing through his heart. Strick- en and bleeding to death, he crawled to a neighbour’s house; an ambulance was soon on the way. The intruders escaped with video game consoles and three paintball guns. Emergency surgery at Sunnybrook hospital saved his life, but he wasn’t out of the woods immediately. Mr. Pedersen’s immediate fam- ily, along with his girlfriend, Stacy Donaldson, kept a tireless vigil until he was dis- charged 12 days later. One boy, aged 14, who showed up at Ajax hospital the night of the break-in with injuries he sustained in the struggle with Mr. Pedersen — he claimed to have been mugged — was arrested by Durham Regional Police. Three other teens have since been charged with aggravat- ed assault, break and enter and weapons charges. He credits police with quickly tracking down and charging suspects, but said he’s left angered and more than a little worried about the fact some of the accused have been released on rather low bail — the 14-year-old was released on a $500 sure- ty. “These guys put a bullet through my heart,” he said. He fears he’ll be disap- pointed by any sentence they may receive if found guilty. “I’m happy with the work the cops do; they work their asses off. But in the justice system, it’s all about (the accused’s) rights. Nobody’s concerned on my behalf, it seems.” Wounds healed, but shooting haunts victim 123LIMO.CA SUVʼS - Limos - Limo Buses.

Joan Butterfield, curator of the exhibit, takes great pride in men- toring African Canadian artists and helping them find their way in the North American Art industry. One such artist is Cheryl Rock. Ms. Rock, who teaches at J. Clarke Richardson Collegiate in Ajax, has been creating for the ex- hibit the last five years and ap- plauds what she feels are its two greatest strengths. “It’s a great communication starter and a great way to motivate change.” By this, Ms. Rock means that when people view art they are able to engage in conversation about its message, in this case breaking down barriers of discrimination. She says that once lines of com- m unication open, positive change can be observed. Ms. Rock also said she thinks it’s fantastic how different each piece in the exhibit is even though every artist is creat- ing with the same theme in mind. “Everyone has their own ideas as to what is colour blind and what it means to them.” Gary Faulkner, project manager of the Durham West Arts Centre, says ‘Colourblind?’ will be the last exhibit shown at the centre’s exist- ing location, but that even though the building has been sold, the centre will still exist. “We’re a going concern, we’re just making a bit of a transition.” Mr. Faulkner says he’s sad the centre is closing for the next little while, but happy to have been able to present ‘Colourblind?’ “It’s a nice way to end.” Additional information about the exhibit can be found by vis- iting www.colour-blind.com and about Ms. Rock by visiting www. cherylrock.com. until the OMB deals with his client’s application. Councillors weren’t in favour of that idea. “I’m not inclined to change a position or hold up another application because of an OMB appeal,” said Ward 2 City Coun- cillor Doug Dickerson. Samantha Kesler, the Bayly Street applicant’s lawyer, point- ed out the attributes of the ap- plication, including that it was a stand-alone building, the en- trance would be off Salk, and that there would only be signage at the rear of the building. Mayor Ryan wanted it built into the approval that there will not be any sig- nage front- ing Bayly, which Ward 1 City Coun- cillor Kevin Ashe agreed with. The ap- plication goes to council June 5 for final approval. ✦ Pickering from page 1 ✦ Colourblind from page 1 Pickering OKs body rub, but signs can’t front on Bayly Colourblind a ‘nice way’ to end centre era Ke vin Ashe For more on this story durhamregion.comA/P PAGE 6 THE NEWS ADVERTISER, May 28, 2006 EDITORIAL LETTER TO THE EDITOR Heather Crowe paved way for legislation For nearly all her life, she was just a regular working jill, a single mom who raised her children and went to her job day after day, doing what she had to do to pay the bills. In other words, she was just like most of us, struggling to keep her head above water and to provide for her family. But the last four years of Heather Crowe’s life were anything but ordinary. Millions of Canadians got to know her in 30-second sound bites that made her the prototypical victim of second-hand smoke. We watched transfixed as Ms. Crowe talked about the 40 years she worked as a waitress in Ottawa-area bars. “I never smoked a day in my life. The air was blue where I worked,” she said in one ad. Diagnosed with inoperable lung cancer in 2002 at the age of 57, her doctor concluded she could only have developed lung cancer through prolonged exposure to second-hand smoke. Ms. Crowe began her campaign against exposure to second- hand smoke back in 2002 and became the recognizable face of what can happen to those who, through no fault of their own, are at the mercy of smokers. She battled hard against the cancer that changed her life, but couldn’t fight the disease indefinitely. Last week she finally succumbed, dying at age 61. But the hard work she has done in defence of those forced to endure second-hand smoke will stand as a proud and lasting legacy of her campaign. As a result of the efforts of Ms. Crowe and other anti-smoking advocates, the Smoke Free Ontario Act comes into effect Wednesday, May 31, which is also, appropri- ately enough, World No Tobacco Day. The act bans smoking in any public places across the prov- ince and restricts the promotion, handling and display of ciga- rettes in stores. We’ve come a long way since the 1960s and ’70s when Heather Crowe and thousands of others worked in bars and restaurants across Ontario, forced to endure the hazards of sec- ond-hand smoke. Now, thanks to her courageous battle and the work of others, let’s hope nobody else has to die from exposure to second-hand smoke. Her sacrifice will not be forgotten. Fireworks disturb people, animals To the editor: People set off their fireworks all three nights recently de- pending, I suspect, upon the weather and their own schedules. One night they ended at 11:45! Does anyone consider what these loud, obnoxious fireworks do to everyone who is not interested in them? How about the elderly who are frightened of them? I know one dear lady who becomes quite distraught as they remind her of the bombings in London during the Second World War. I absolutely dread the May and July long weekends, knowing my dogs will be frantic and I will lose a lot of precious sleep. How many animals are frightened for hours at a time during these nights? How many ill people lose desperately needed sleep? How many injuries are there with young teens setting them off? There are places people can go to watch fireworks if they so desire, like Ontario Place, which is out of suburbia. I just wish everyone would think about how it affects others, before they set off these loud, and what can be frightening fireworks.

W as a recent trip to Europe by a delegation of Durham politi- cians and employees a waste? In a word, no. A seven-day trip to Copenhagen, Denmark, Malmo, Sweden and various municipalities in the Netherlands to visit four energy-from-waste facilities and one mechanical biological facil- ity was decades worth of education crammed into one week. These governments spent billions of dollars and decades to get to the point where they are among the world’s most advanced in waste management tech- nology. The Region took advantage of the opportunity to learn from that history so that when it comes time for the men and women of Durham council to de- cide what will be done with our waste they can make an educated choice. Councillor Brian Nicholson of Osha- wa during the last finance and adminis- tration meeting said that facilities could have been researched on the Internet. However the delegation was privy to so much more than a website could ever offer (especially since the websites are in Dutch, Danish and Swedish). On their journey, the delegation had, by chance, an opportunity to speak with a professor from Columbia Uni- versity who happened to be touring the facility in Amsterdam on the same day. They met with the director of the Netherlands ministry of the environ- ment as well as policy makers, elected officials from municipalities in Malmo, communications directors and the en- gineers who run these massive facili- ties. The Region delegation engaged in one-on-one conversations with the people who run the facilities and took every advantage of that face time. They asked how the facilities were funded, how much money they make, what neighbours think, if they get complaints from surrounding businesses and what are the greatest strengths as well as weaknesses of these types of facilities. The Europeans were surprisingly open and forthcoming. But, even more crucial to the deci- sion-making process these councillors will undertake in the near future, was that politicians and staff could smell for themselves if the facilities emit odour. They could see if seagulls or animals inundate the area around them and they could watch what was coming out of the stacks. As Cliff Curtis put it in an interview prior to the trip, it was an opportunity for the decision-makers to get out and kick the tires. I liken the trip to buying a house. If you were purchasing a $300,000 house would you not pay a couple hundred dollars for a home inspection prior to signing the papers? Well, Durham is looking at building a facility that will cost millions of dollars, so what’s wrong with spending $20,000 to check it out? Erin Hatfield’s column ap- pears every third Sunday. E-mail ehatfield@durhamregion.com. Waste trip not a waste at all Erin Hatfield staff writer EDITORIALS & OPINIONS infodurhamregion.com North and south offices merging in effort to provide better service By Jessica Klinkenberg Special to the News Advertiser DURHAM — North Durham Hos- pice and Hospice Durham are amal- gamating to form Durham Hospice. The decision was made in May by the board of directors for each or- ganization, in order to combine ser- vices and increase the quality of care, said Mary MacDonald, president of Hospice Durham. A general meeting is to take place on June 22, however Ms. MacDonald said in the meantime, the offices for both organizations remain open and services will continue to be deliv- ered. Previously North Durham Hospice had served Scugog, Uxbridge and Brock with Hospice Durham respon- sible for the rest of the region. The amalgamation came as a result of creating a stronger organization for the benefit of each. “We can utilize our resources bet- ter,” Ms. MacDonald said. As well, the two hospices will ben- efit from being able to submit one an- nual budget to the Ministry of Health and Long Term Care, and in garner- ing financial support from the com- munity. “We just hope for better organi- zation and more manpower for our fundraising,” Ms. MacDonald said. The Ministry of Health and Long Te rm Care requires hospices to raise 25 per cent of their annual budget through fundraising, she added. The two hospice groups are a good fit to amalgamate, she noted, because “The philosophy and purpose of the organizations have always been the same.” In a press release announcing the merger, a statement from the joint committee of the two boards said “With the aging population in Dur- ham Region our clients in the re- gion will benefit tremendously by the planned amalgamation. Both agen- cies have always relied on trained volunteers to provide hospice pal- liative services which make them a unique resource in hospice palliative care. “The recent new funding an- nouncement reflects the value of vol- unteers and will do much to promote the expansion of our core services.” According to the Hospice Durham website, hospices in Ontario are community-based organizations run with the help of volunteers, and help people with serious illnesses live in- dependently at home or in home-like environments. Trained volunteers with the hos- pices provide friendship and support for anyone diagnosed with a life- threatening illness, as well as pro- viding comfort to the families, and light chores around the house and errands. Ms. MacDonald said that the new Durham Hospice will still provide the same community care and services it always has.

How much is a good night’s sleep worth to you? It’s priceless of course. We spend a third of our lives in bed but many of us toss and turn, get hot and cold, wake up several times because we just aren’t comfortable. So what do we do? Well we go to Master- Bedroom in Whitby. Thanks to owners Garry and Stephen Mac- Murray and their very helpful and knowledge- able staff, thousands of people all over Durham Region and beyond can thank them for a comfort- able, restful sleep. This is their 25th year in business and one thing hasn’t changed. They still specialize in making your bedroom the place where you find peace from a very hectic day. They can talk all about their wide selection of mattresses, bedroom suites, futons and bunk beds. They can talk about the revolutionary sleep systems from Tempur and Natura. They can explain to you the variety of spring coil sets from Serta and other manufac- turers. They can tell you why beds feel a certain way and the benefits as to why they will give you a good night’s sleep. “But you really have to come to the store and try them out,” says Garry. “Come by yourself or as a couple. Lie on the mat- tress and see what’s right for you. That’s why we have so many systems to experience. We have something for everyone.” Tempur and Natura are foam and latex sys- tems respectively that have become a popular alternative to the tradi- tional coil mattress. Tempur, developed by NASA for use in space, is a revolution- ary memory foam that moulds to the shape of your body eliminat- ing pressure points that can cause restless sleep. They’re also designed to create a stable surface so when your partner moves you don’t feel a thing. Natura is a latex mat- tress that gives contour- ing support with a firmer feel. It creates a tempera- ture-controlled micro- climate for your body and significantly reduces tossing and turning. MasterBedroom also carries the superior lines of coil mattresses from the best manufacturers such as Serta and others. “There are still many people who prefer the tra- ditional feel of a coil mat- tress,” says Garry. “That’s why we continue to offer a great selection.” There is also a selec- tion of water bed mattress- es for those that enjoy this retro but updated version of a very unique sleep system. From bedroom suites and bunk beds to the growing popularity of the latest futons that are great as an auxiliary sleep system, MasterBedroom has it all. Come in for a visit and rest your body on a mattress that’s perfect for you. Isn’t it time you had a good night’s sleep!

This time it’s not the battle against incurable diseases, or world famine. No. Were losing the battle against stress and the overwhelming hold it takes on our very existence and sanity. We like to believe that yearly trips to the spa or weekly visits to the gym help to fight against it, but we still never seem to get away from the ongoing struggle. The scariest part however, is the fact that nobody can really detect stress until we break down, for stress is silent and often unnoticeable. It’s proven that an increased amount of stress can have fatal effects. Nor- mally, the first symptoms of stress are dizzy spells, tension, insomnia and muscle pain. But research also shows that stress can lead to cardiovascu- lar problems such as high cholesterol and blood pressure. We’ve all heard about these symptoms before yet we continue to believe that our daily rou- tine, although sometimes stressful, is perfectly normal. The truth is, we are burying ourselves in depression and pain but not acknowledging the symptoms and detecting the causes. Unfortunately, the amount of stress in our lives will never really end. Well, that’s what we believe anyway. Stu- dents, for example, are feeling more stress than ever thanks to university tuitions, acceptances and high school grade averages. Balancing work sched- ules and a social life with friends and family also puts a strain on our young adults. We must constantly look over our shoulders when walking home and some of us have the trying ex- perience of dealing with bullies. So parents, be on the lookout for your teen’s symptoms of stress such as a short fuse and pulling “all-nighters.” An over-stressed teen may be living in your home, which can lead to health problems later in their lives. The thought of stress made me won- der if people feel more accomplished when leading a stressful life. Do we feel that if we run ourselves into the ground, we have single-handedly overcome a task that, at first, seemed daunting and impossible? I think the sense of accomplishment when a job is finished, even if it’s merely the sim- ple task of getting errands done on a Saturday afternoon, weighs out the feeling of panicking and stress. I am encouraging all people to ask themselves when was the last time they heard quiet. Complete silence. Even in the solace of your favourite place, there are still noises that can interrupt our willingness to relax. A clock may tick, or traffic may rumble. As humans, it seems as though we can never achieve full relaxation, or maybe it’s because we feel we don’t have to. Is it because silence intrigues thinking and thinking generates more stress and worrying? It never ends, for if we try to battle stress with solace and time to ourselves, we stress out again by thinking and worrying about petty things. Next time you are faced with great amounts of stress, or feel as if your life has become a dizzy whirlwind of tasks and errands, ask yourself whether that moment has that much significance in your life. You may be surprised with what you think. Katalin McLean is an 18-year-old Ajax resident. She is the News Adver- tiser’s youth columnist and appears on the fourth Sunday of each month.

But our motivation only seems to kick in with the start of summer. There’s nothing like warm weather to encourage us to get outdoors, even if it’s only to begin a walking program. As with any new exercise, if you are over the age of 35, you should get a medi- cal evaluation before beginning. A great way to ease into an exercise routine is to start walking. Walking not only burns fat, it tightens muscles and lowers lipoprotein cholesterol levels. Our walking rate as we go about out daily activities is approximately three miles per hour. The average person should walk at a pace of about one third faster (four miles per hour) to reach a desired exercise heart rate. We need to protect out feet, therefore a good walking shoe is very important. It should provide the most flexibility at the middle of the sole. While walking, your feet do not require the same impact pro- tection as when you are running, so your soles do not have to be thick. Before you begin walking, it is always a good idea to start with at least five minutes of stretching exercises. After you stretch, begin walking slowly. Do so for about five minutes to increase your heart rate. Then walk briskly for about 25-30 minutes. Your walk should end with a five minute decrease in speed to cool down and than five minutes of stretching to prevent stiffness and increase flexibil- ity. Never wear ankle weights. They will put pressure on your joints that evolution never anticipated and are sure to cause future problems. Safe walking is great for all ages. Here are some summer exercise tips to get you ready for your warm weather wardrobe: 1. Dress appropriately for the temper- ature. Wear light coloured, loose fitting clothing. Always wear a hat with a visor and use sunscreen with an SPF of at least 15. 2. Drink a lot of water before, during and after the walk. Don’t wait until you Ronald J. Klein B.Sc., D.P.M. Podiatrist-Foot Specialist Ask The Podiatrist Cool foot tips during the hot summer are thirsty, by then it’s too late and you may already be dehydrated. 3. Give yourself time to adapt to warmer weather. Exercising in the sum- mer heat puts more strain on the body than in cooler temperatures. 4. Walk in the morning or early evening when it’s cooler and traffic is lighter. 5. Make sure you are visible when walking at night. The greatest threat to the health of a walker is an inattentive driver. Wear bright clothing with reflec- tive tape on your arms, front and back. Also carry a flashlight. 6. Avoid busy streets. Carry only enough money for a phone call or emer- gencies. 7. Obey the rules of the road. Walk facing traffic where there are no side- walks. Like any form of exercise, walking should be done in moderation, every other day. If you are concerned about the weather outside, you can always mall walk. Most malls are open early in the morning, and are a perfect temperature. Just think; you won’t have to worry about a pet owner who neglected to scoop their poop.

The longtime Pickering resident is returning for her 15th season as a member of the Amberlea Ten- nis Club, the past seven as presi- dent of the small, neighbourhood group that attracts the young and old, experienced and beginner, to the courts on Shadybrook Drive, just south of Stroud’s Lane, in west Pickering. She recalls picking up a ten- nis racquet after squash became too much physically. She’s been a devotee ever since. “I was a squash player for years and years, but my body finally told me to take it easier, so I took up tennis and I became hooked,” says Aiken, adding that, as the Amberlea courts were within walking distance of her home, it was only natural that she became involved. As for being president for a sev- enth year, Aiken’s only too happy to continue in that capacity, helped along by two-year vice- president Sue Peschke, and by Tom Kluge, who’s been the club’s treasurer for a number of years. “I’ve found it to be amazing, really. It’s been very rewarding,” Aiken says of her long association with Amberlea, one of six ten- nis clubs operated by community volunteers under the auspices of the City of Pickering. “It’s been a matter of two or three people run- ning things and keeping things good. “We’re very lucky to have courts in the neighbourhood; it’s good to see them used and enjoyed. We have a wonderful facility here.” Aiken notes she’s especially looking forward to the 2006 sea- son, as Amberlea is undergoing a renaissance of sorts with its two courts getting a major facelift this spring. The City, which budgeted for the work last year, completed new fencing and a fresh coat of asphalt on the courts’ surface this spring. Despite all the new efforts on the courts, the work has hit a slight snag, as the club is awaiting the finishing touches, including a rubberized surface, and the holes to be drilled into the asphalt to allow net posts to be anchored. The new court surface was to have been completed by May 15, but inclement weather has played a role in the delays, says Aiken. “This should be completed within a very short time when the weather settles to three con- secutive fine days for the City of Pickering and their construction company to complete the job. Until then, we are unable to begin our programs,” she says. In addition to serving as vice- president, Peschke is also the Amberlea club’s house league co- ordinator. You could say organiz- ing house league play has been a labour of love. “That’s how I got involved in the tennis club. I wanted to play more tennis in order to improve, so I approached Rosemary and Tom about it and became the house league co-ordinator,” she says. “The house league is open to everyone, not just competitive players. It’s for the beginners to the advanced players who want to play for fun.” Aiken and Peschke hope the new, refurbished courts will bring even more tennis enthusiasts out. Although Aiken notes member- ship hit a lull about five years ago, it’s recovered, with the club able to hold its core members and add new ones each season to bring the number to approximately 100 members. The membership is diverse, with plenty of area families sign- ing up each season to use the courts. And, with a family mem- bership only $45 for the season, Aiken says it’s a good deal. Aiken and Peschke believe Am- berlea’s membership would fur- ther increase if a third court were built on site, which would allow more programs to be run through the summer. A third court “would enable us to improve our program tremen- dously,” says Aiken. “It limits our membership with just two courts and a lack of washroom facili- ties.” Like other community groups, Aiken says the club would like more from the City, but notes that, all-in-all, Pickering has been responsive. “The City has been amazing, especially the maintenance peo- ple who go out of their way to fix things for us,” she says. The long-range plans for the club are to have a third court built at the site by 2009, and a fourth by 2012. Amberlea also hopes to get permanent washroom facilities and a clubhouse within the next six years. durhamregion.com THE NEWS ADVERTISER, MAY 28, 2006 PAGE 15 A/P SPORTS sportsdurhamregion.com THIS WEEKEND The Ajax-Pickering Rock senior ‘B’ lacrosse team travels to Brooklin to play the Merchants at the Luther Vipond Arena tonight (Sunday) at 7 p.m. Amberlea swings into new season PART OF DOWN TO GO QTR To view this series in its entirety, visit keywordsearch: aleagueoftheirown A.J.

All sessions are designed to introduce kids to water and boat safety skills, boat-handling skills and also provide a wide variety of sports and games throughout the days. The emphasis is on fun.
