Pickering enjoys fun by the bay
Clogging lends life
to Frenchman’s
Bay Festival
By Alexis Sciuk
Special to the News Advertiser
PICKERING –It’s not often
people go to a festival to be
part of the entertainment, but
that is what summer is like for
Kollene McKeown.
Ms. McKeown is a clogger
with Kick Up A Fuss, a Picker-
ing group that travels to per-
form at local fairs and festi-
vals. Last weekend, Ms. McK-
eown and her squad attended
the Frenchman’s Bay Festival
to demonstrate the art of clog-
ging.
Clogging is a Southern Ap-
palachian dance that began
years ago in barns and back
porches and is similar in style
to the Irish traditional dance
that was the inspiration for
the popular ‘Riverdance.’
Modern clogging has distinct
steps, with such combinations
as ‘wringing the chicken’s
neck,” “stepping on a snake”
and “briar patch.”
Relatively new to the art ,
Ms. McKeown boasts that she
picked it up quickly and now
lists clogging as the best exer-
cise program she has ever
done.
“It was my sister that got
me into it a few years back. I
love it. It is so much fun. All
you need is tap shoes.”
After performing an hour-
long demonstration, the team,
dressed all in black, set out to
enjoy the festival for a little
while longer before they left
for Unionville, where they
were scheduled to do another
demonstration.
Ms. McKeown and a friend
set their sights on a Henna
booth set up near the water

Progress takes step back
Memorial art
for dead child
damaged by
park vandals
By Danielle Milley
Staff Writer
PICKERING – A sculpture do-
nated to the City by a resident,
in memory of his son, was van-
dalized Saturday night.
Pickering Ward 2 City Coun-
cillor Bill McLean said resi-
dents living near the yet-to-
be-opened Frenchman’s Bay
East Progress Park saw some
young people climbing the 16-
foot tall piece.
“It’s maddening that some-
thing like this could happen
before the park is open,” he
said. “It shows a total disre-
gard for the property.”
The piece of art by K.S.
Oliver, ‘Census Five’, had been
donated a while ago by Irv
Carr in memory of his young
son who died of Batten dis-
ease. After waiting for the
right place to put the art, the
City recently placed it in the
northwest corner of the park
overlooking Frenchman’s Bay.
“We just put $800,000 into
the park to create community
pride and respect and you get
some thoughtless kids who go
down and destroy it,” Coun.
McLean said.
The thin metal sculpture,
which is about half-an-inch
thick, was bent over by the
vandals. Coun. McLean said
he hopes it is not damaged be-
yond repair.
It has been brought to the
works department and they
are going to try to strengthen
it and save it.
Coun. McLean said he con-
tacted the police who came
out to investigate Sunday. The
investigation continues.
In addition to the damage
to the sculpture, the Progress
Club building in the park was
also spray painted with graffi-
ti.
“I just hope this isn’t the
start of things to come and I
hope we can nip this in the
bud not just for this park but
for other parks as well,” Coun.
McLean said.
If the sculpture is returned
to the park he would like to
see the City do something to
try and protect it, he said,
such as putting a barricade
around it.
Trustees having
second thoughts
about changes
By Mike Ruta
Staff Writer
DURHAM – The public school
board’s new busing policy is
on shaky ground and likely to
shift.
The Durham District
School Board passed the poli-
cy two months ago, enshrin-
ing busing rights for day-care
parents but taking away sur-
plus seating for hundreds of
others. Now trustees are hav-
ing second thoughts, with one
regretting a policy that “is di-
viding families between
schools.
“I certainly, personally, be-
lieve that I made a mistake,”
Oshawa Trustee Michael Bar-
rett said at Monday’s standing
committee meeting, evoking
applause from the gallery. “I
don’t believe that I truly
showed due diligence in un-
derstanding the full ramifica-
tions of this.
“I erred,” he continued. “I’m
not proud of my decision and
will be the first to admit that I
erred in my responsibilities to
the community I serve.”
Students in special pro-
grams such as French immer-
sion are guaranteed busing.
However their siblings have
generally been able to go to
the same school if there’s an
empty seat on the bus. The
new policy takes away that
ability, so parents have to get
siblings not in the programs
to school themselves if they
want to keep the kids togeth-
er.
Pickering parent Margaret
Eskins says the policy was
pushed through without con-
sultation. Trustees on April 19
agreed to skirt procedure and
approve the policy at standing
committee.
“To give two months notice
to parents is unfair, and now
we’re being asked to hold on
until a decision is made in
June,” she said.
She read about the policy
change in the newspaper. Ms.
Eskins says her child’s school
principal knew nothing about
it, referring her to the board
transportation department.
Based on incorrect informa-
tion from staff, she changed

Composting
program
spreads out
Over 1,000 city
homes involved
PICKERING – Residents in
the city’s Amberlea neigh-
bourhood are setting the
trend for waste diversion.
Durham Region is launch-
ing this week its kitchen food
waste composting program
in the Pickering neighbour-
hood. There are already 520
households involved in a
pilot waste program and an
additional 680 households in
the same area are now being
included in the new program.
All of those households re-
ceive a new green bin and in-
side each locked curbside bin
there is a kitchen food waste
container, a waste informa-
tion guide, kraft paper yard
waste bags, kitchen contain-
er liner bags and a rain gauge
kit.
The new program replaces
the pilot project first imple-
mented in Amberlea in No-
vember 2001, which achieved
waste diversion rates of bet-
ter than 60 per cent.
Pickering recently trans-
ferred responsibility for
waste collection to the Re-

her child-care arrangements.
Ms. Eskins called for public consul-
tation and policy amendments. The
latter might occur as soon as tonight
(Wednesday), when trustees discuss
the policy after a budget meeting.
Both are public and take place at the
board office in Whitby, 400 Taunton
Rd. E., starting with the budget
meeting at 7 p.m. and the trans-
portation committee meeting at 9
p.m.
Business superintendent Ed Hod-
gins says a new provincial trans-
portation policy, to be put in place
this fall, means the board will likely
receive $3.7 million less for trans-
portation. At the same time, the
board is trying to harmonize its bus-
ing policies with the Durham
Catholic board as they prepare to
share services. Finally, Mr. Hodgins
says surplus seating has to be manu-
ally entered in the board bus routing
system, creating a lot of headaches.
Not all board members regretted
the policy change. Oshawa Trustee
Susan Shetler says trustees knew
what they were getting into. She ob-
jected when Whitby Trustee John
Dolstra called for a public meeting.
“This full board supported these
policy changes; there’s nothing new
here,” said Trustee Shetler. “I think
we need to discuss these issues now.”
Pickering Trustee Paul Crawford
also called for a public meeting. How-
ever Oshawa Trustee and meeting
chairman Kathleen Hopper said
time is running out on the current
school year, and any changes would
have to be approved at the June 21
board meeting.
Education director Craig Burch
said staff needs some direction on
what policy changes trustees would
consider. He also noted that pricier
policy changes have an impact on the
big picture- the upcoming budget for
the next school year.
“What you add in a draft budget,
something needs to be dropped off,”
said Mr. Burch. “Staff needs some
sense of what you want to do.”
Trustee Hopper says trustees will
have new information at Wednes-
day’s meeting.

UOIT’s first
graduating class
looks forward to
bright future
By Mike Ruta
Staff Writer
DURHAM – Nicola Frankland
is the first class’s first
spokesman.
Fifty-six future science and
math teachers graduated from
the University of Ontario Insti-
tute of Technology on Friday.
The one-year, concurrent edu-
cation graduates are the new
university’s first alumni.
“In your teaching and in
your life, I urge you to be givers
of your time, your coveted re-
sources, but most of all, your
imagination,” the Whitby-
raised Ms. Frankland said in
her valedictorian address.
Dignitaries and guests, in-
cluding Ian Clark, president
and chief executive officer of
the Council of Ontario Univer-
sities, attended the convoca-
tion in the campus’s athletic
centre. He welcomed UOIT to
the council, noting it was “a re-
markable accomplishment”
that it was graduating stu-
dents so soon after being cre-
ated.
Also at the ceremony, Gary
Polonsky was formally in-
stalled as president and vice-
chancellor of UOIT, and Lyn
McLeod its founding chancel-
lor.
“Thank you for taking a risk
on the new kid on the universi-
ty block,” Mr. Polonsky told the
graduates, later calling on
them to provide foot-stomping
accompaniment as he sang the
UOIT song.
“It’s exciting, for sure, to be a
part of the first class,” Ms.
Frankland said in an interview.
“Universities don’t open very
often. It’s nice to see a universi-
ty come a little bit closer east.”
The eight-month education
program saw her in front of
students for the first time at
two placements, including
Cadarackque Public School in
Ajax.
“You certainly learn a lot
from being immersed in the
classroom,” says the Anderson
Collegiate and Vocational In-
stitute graduate. “I think that
the learning curve is steep in
the beginning.”
She says being a teacher
seems a good way to stay
young.
“It’s certainly refreshing to
be around kids for the day,”
says Ms. Frankland, joking
that after a 30-year career
she’ll have to reassess. “Devel-
oping a rapport with them,
seeing them everyday in the
classroom, there’s just some-
thing special about having a
group of kids come to see you
every day to learn something.”
She’s a McMaster University
graduate and plans to move to
Hamilton and begin sending
out resumes to school boards
west of Toronto. She hopes to
become a high school science
teacher and start and coach a
lacrosse team.
Born in western Canada,
graduate Fraser Gill gets
around. He grew up in New
Brunswick, now calls Missis-
sauga home and just returned
from a canoe trip with friends
on the Wanapitei River, north
of Sudbury.
After obtaining degrees in
accounting and computer sci-
ence, the 35-year-old worked
with companies such as IBM.
“I found myself getting more
and more into the training
side,” he says.
With encouragement from
wife Lana, he decided to go for
a third degree and become a
teacher. With his extensive
technology background, Mr.
Gill says UOIT was a natural
fit. He did some of his practice
teaching at J. Clarke Richard-
son Collegiate in Ajax.
“It was great; really good
students,” says Mr. Gill. “That
makes all the difference.”
After the formal part of the
convocation ceremony, gradu-
ates, guests and staff members
assembled outdoors for a re-
ception.
“If there’s anyone out there
who’s considering UOIT as an
option, spend some time look-
ing into it,” Ms. Frankland ad-
vises.

Pickering mayor
picks up new ideas
at municipalities’
conference
By Danielle Milley
Staff Writer
PICKERING – Dave Ryan’s first
trip to the Federation of Cana-
dian Municipalities confer-
ence filled him with ideas on
ways to improve Pickering.
The Pickering mayor and
Wa rd 2 City Councillor Bill
McLean were in Edmonton for
the conference at the end of
May to learn from other mu-
nicipalities.
“The opportunity to share
those ideas and gain new
knowledge from my peers (was
valuable),” Mayor Ryan said.
“We’ve both come back with a
number of ideas we want to
see exercised in Pickering.”
He said some ideas could be
easily transferred to Pickering
while others would have to be
tailored.
The ideas included how
other municipalities handle
animal waste in parks, how
they deal with pets in public
places, and how they handle
toxic waste collection.
Coun. McLean said some
municipalities have toxic
roundup stations on specific
dates so people can come to a
central location and drop off
items such as paint cans or
motor oil bottles.
“Something like that is not
only going to benefit the envi-
ronment, but also people,” he
said.
Another option could be to
implement a red box for toxic
waste that would be picked up
once a month or every other
month.
Coun. McLean said he also
picked up a lot of information
on safe communities and
property standards, which he
believes could be useful if the
City goes ahead with legaliz-
ing basement apartments.
The conference included
speeches from both federal
L iberal leader Paul Martin
May 28 and federal NDP
leader Jack Layton May 31.
“Some good news that came
from that is Mr. Martin has
gone along with the findings of
the FCM and committed part
of the gas tax,” Coun. McLean
said, of the prime minister’s
election campaign pledge.
Mr. Layton announced his
party would commit half the
gas tax to municipalities if
elected.

Artists offer their
best at annual event
By Alexis Sciuk
Special to the News Advertiser
PICKERING – Sonia Mohr is an
artist who specializes in oil paints,
but every now and again she breaks
out the face paint for a good cause.
As a volunteer face painter for
the annual ArtFest, held last week-
end, Ms. Mohr is extremely popular
with children.
“I have been volunteering with
ArtFest for a few years now. I do it
at a lot of community events and
the Police Association Community
Day. This is my thing - I face paint,”
said Ms. Mohr.
Over the years, Ms. Mohr figures
she has painted thousands of chil-
dren’s faces and has learned to
draw every cartoon character, ac-
tion hero and superstar.
“A c ouple of people have asked
for Pokemon this year and I haven’t
had that for a couple of years.”
As the line of children grows be-
hind Ms. Mohr to get their faces
painted, there isn’t one request
that she can’t fulfill. Although she
admits some pictures are harder to
draw than others- such as Spider-
man with all his webbing - she
prides herself on being up to date
with all of the new wishes of the
younger generations.
In the past, the most popular de-
sign girls chose was the butterfly,
and for boys Spiderman typically
beats out all other superheroes, but
this year the trend has changed.
“I am expecting to do a bunch of
Harry Potters today. Harry Potter
is very big. Last year the big thing
was Spiderman - this year I’m
thinking its Harry Potter and
Hermione.”
Typically, Ms. Mohr’s canvass is
cheeks, but sometimes kids prefer
to get “tattoos” on their arms.
“The face is the big thing, but it is
a hot day and sleeveless is in, so
tattoos might be a really good solu-
tion,” said Ms. Mohr. “A lot of kids
are here today getting their pic-
tures taken with their soccer teams
so they can’t have their face done,
so maybe getting their arm done is
a good solution.”
C ynthia Ruhnke watched from
the craft table as her daughter
Alexandra climbed into the chair to
get her third tattoo of the day. With
both of her cheeks sporting crim-
son red hearts Alexandra request-
ed specific colours for a little but-
terfly for her arm.
“We were here two years ago,”
said Mrs. Ruhnke.
“It is a beautiful park and a great
place for the kids. The crafts are
great and the weather has cooper-
ated, so we have had a really great
time.”
Along with being able to get their
faces painted, visitors to ArtFest
could also graffiti their own piece of
Bristol board, create creatures with
Play-Doh and choose from a variety
of amusement park rides. But that
was only for the kids. For the par-
ents in the crowd there were more
than 50 local artists on hand to
show their work and give demon-
strations.
“The artists are wonderful,” said
Mrs. Ruhnke. “For me it was great
to come and see the artists, and for
the kids the craft area was the
best.”

With her pants rolled up and her foot
placed firmly on a stool, Ms. McKe-
own chose her ankle as the spot for a
fitting Kokopelli semi-permanent
Henna tattoo.
Koko pelli is distinguished by his
dancing pose, a hunchback and flute
and represents the spirit of music in
Native American mysticism.
Dave Johnson, organizer of the fes-

Letters to the Editor
Parking fines just
don't belong here
Call me old-fashioned, but
there's just something
wrong about parking
tickets in a small town. My wife
came home today with a ticket
for parking a little too close to a
fire hydrant in town. She wasn't
in front of the hydrant, she real-
ly wasn't anywhere near it, and
she was just dashing into the
ATM and back again. Ticket
Lady must've been lurking in
the bushes somewhere, saw a
chance to make her monthly
quota‚ and pounced.
I'm not against tickets. In
busy places where parking is at
a premium and there is a neces-
sity for keeping busy thorough-
fares clear and moving freely,
I'm all for parking tickets.
Many is the time I've cussed
out some ignorant, selfish
S.O.B. who is blithely double-
parked, and thereby bringing
my drive home to a crawl. I'd
love to see a green hornet nail
his butt.
But we live in a very small
town. We do not yet number
1,000. There are Amish commu-
nities that have more road rage
than we encounter. One of the
wonderful and unlooked-for sur-
prises that my wife and I discov-
ered upon moving here from the
city some 12 years ago was that
you could park just about any-
where for free. I have free park-
ing space around my own home
than you could find in the GTA.
As a commuter who was sub-
jected on a daily basis to the
highway robbery of parking
downtown, I was in heaven
when I moved here. I used to
park my car in several different
places during the course of a
day, just because I could. "Look
honey‚" I'd gaily squeal to my
wife, "I've been parked in front of
the hardware store all morning
and it didn't cost me a red cent!
Is this great or what?"
And it is great. It's a very little
thing, but the absence of park-
ing tickets and the nosy govern-
mental interference that they
represent are (or were) part and
parcel of the independent, pio-
neering spirit small-towners
enjoy. Those of us who weren't
lucky enough to be born in this
beautiful community came here
to escape all those citified ways.
The honour system works very
well in small towns. Yep, that's
Charlie's truck in front of the hy-
drant, but he's just lettin' his
dog have a pee, he'll be gone in a
minute or two. Sure, Clyde's in
the handicapped spot, but he's
just ribbin' the Scranton boy
about his prize calf. He won't be
but a second, 'sides, some folks
think Clyde is handicapped. You
see, small town people don't
mind. Small town people can
wait for their turn to park ille-
gally. No one gets mad either.
Believe me, in a town of under
1,000 bodies, you pretty much
know who owns the vehicle
that's blocked you in, and you
know they'll be right out as soon
as they get their shotgun shells.
No biggie.
So, when you do get a ticket in
a small town, it smarts. It hurts
the pocketbook sure, but what
really aches is your sense of fair
play. Ticket Lady, I have noticed,
does not live in my town. I think
that pretty much says it all.

Holland's
still giving
full-time effort
To the editor:
Re: 'Holland should reconsid-
er,' editorial, June 4.
How can a leave of absence be
"the only fair thing for the pub-
lic?"
It is ridiculous to write that be-
cause the man has cut back his
hours from 60 to 40 per week, his
council pay should be cut back. If
Mark Holland was working less
than 40 hours per week on coun-
cil duties, your argument would
make sense. But most people
consider 40 hours per week full
time.
As far as the effectiveness of
council, I believe the city gains
more with him there than with-
out. So let him earn his salary.
That's fair for everyone.
Perhaps the editors should re-
consider.
Peter Forint,
Pickering
What's good
for Holland
should be
good for us
To the editor:
Re: 'Holland should reconsid-
er,' editorial, June 4.
Below is a copy of a letter I sent
to my employer last week.
Dear Boss,
I would like to inform you that
I have decided to cut my work-
week by one third but still get
paid a full salary. The reason is I
really do not want the job that
was given to me in good faith last
year is because hopefully I will
get a much more lucrative one at
the end of June.
The problem is there is a good
chance I may not get the new job
so I must keep my options open
otherwise I will be out of work.
Therefore even though you are
paying me the same for working
less hours, you must understand
there is a chance I may be back
and of course you do understand
I am irreplaceable.
Hopefully you will be in full
agreement with my course of ac-
tion and understand I may have
to skip a few important meetings,
etc.
Incidentally there is a prece-
dent for the above, as I am sure
you are aware that the federal
Liberal election candidate for
Ajax-Pickering Riding is doing
the same thing. Surely us 'John
Does' have the same rights as
politicians, don't we?
My boss's reply unfortunately
is unprintable - and if anyone out
there is looking to hire, give me a
call.
John Haste
Ajax
Remember
Holland's pay
raise when
you vote
To the editor:
It's interesting that Pickering
Regional Councillor Mark Hol-
land, federal Liberal candidate
for Ajax-Pickering, didn't want to
spend tax dollars on an adequate
telephone system for the new re-
gional headquarters. Too bad he
wasn't as careful with our money
when it came to the huge region-
al councillor pay raises. But then
that money was headed into his
own pocket.
Coun. Holland said he sup-
ported the raises because he
wanted to be treated like any
other regional employee. Is a
councillor an employee or an em-
ployer?
When asked why he didn't fol-
low the lead of MPPs in declining
scheduled raises, Coun. Holland
said the Province was in a deficit
situation, while the Region of
Durham was not. He did not re-
spond to the fact that the Region
cannot, by law, have a deficit and
that taxes would have to be
raised to support the raises.
The elimination of the one-
third tax-free allowance of pay
further showed Coun. Holland's
lack of respect for the taxpayer.
He voted for it, because, he said,
it had been asked for for several
years. He ignored the fact that
Durham taxpayers would have to
pay the extra amount of the
equalization.
Councillors also get six per
cent of their remuneration in lieu
of a pension plan.
Many of us said we would re-
member the raises come the next
election. For Coun. Holland, the
next election is June 28. Remem-
ber him, and tell him, with your
vote, what you think of the re-
gional pay raises.
David Bergson,
Ajax
OMB reform
step in right
direction
Local control of development
necessary to avoid problems
Those who've long felt the Ontario Municipal Board
has far too much say on development decisions in
Ontario, may have a champion in the Ontario Lib-
erals.
Durham Regional Chairman Roger Anderson, who last
year led a GTA taskforce to probe the board's policies and
practices, has pointed to the fact that OMB decisions
overruling local elected officials have caused problems in
Durham - including the Village of Brooklin. Mr. Anderson
said that, while the development is beautiful, it "hop-
scotched development" and has cost the Region a lot of
money as a result.
In its present incarnation, the OMB, whose member-
ship is comprised of private citizens who have been ap-
pointed by the Province, has the authority to overrule vir-
tually any local development decision made by a munici-
pal or regional council. That being the case, residents
who take on aggressive developers in their communities
are often left to wonder why they should bother voicing
their concerns to local government at all.
Not surprisingly, the power of the OMB to deliver final
rulings on contentious development issues, upsets mu-
nicipal politicians.
The Province has promised OMB reform and Durham
politicians want to see a plan put in place that provides
that, only major planning matters involving issues of
provincial policy and approval of official plans may be re-
ferred to the OMB.
The move would leave everyday planning issues to mu-
nicipal and regional councils. This way, in major cases,
OMB appeals could, and should, continue to occur, which
would be in keeping with the board's original purpose -to
offer a route of appeal for citizens and developers who feel
they haven't been treated fairly at the municipal or re-
gional government level.
When the system works, everyone benefits.
A provincial review might freshen up the mandate of the
OMB. Council also wants to see the Planning Act and On-
tario Municipal Board Act get another look by the
Province. Such an exercise should put planning and de-
velopment power largely back in the hands of locally elect-
ed officials, not provincially appointed commissioners.
The Province will seek public input on the matter dur-
ing a Pickering meeting to be held June 24 from 6:30 to
9:30 p.m. at Dunbarton High School, 655 Sheppard Ave.
It's in every citizen's interest to attend and let Ontario
know that the OMB cannot be allowed to continue to ig-
nore the wants and needs of this community.

Luttmer sets sail
for Athens Games
Pickering Olympian
figures there's
something good in
the waters of
Frenchman's Bay
By Al Rivett
Sports Editor
PICKERING —For eight years
Bernard Luttmer has been sailing to-
ward a dream -- to represent Canada
at the Olympics.
Now, his dream has become reality.
The 24-year-old Pickering native
will be the lone Canadian representa-
tive in laser sailing at the 2004 Sum-
mer Olympic Games in Athens.
He couldn't be happier, considering
he was close, but came up just short
of the mark in qualifying for the 2000
Olympics Games in Sydney, Aus-
tralia.
"Absolutely, I'm very excited, it's a
pretty awesome feeling," says Luttmer
at his south Pickering home during a
brief respite from the water. "That's
because in the 2000 trials I was third
and narrowly missed going to Sydney.
I've been thinking about (qualifying)
for eight years and it finally hap-
pened."
Luttmer's Olympic dream took
shape in Bodrum, Turkey at last
month's World Laser Sailing Champi-
onships. The race also served as the
Canadian Olympic qualifier. Luttmer
ended up finishing 41st overall but,
most important, he beat out Canadi-
an rival Andrew Childs, of Nova Sco-
tia, for the Olympic berth.
Earning the spot was no small feat,
as Luttmer's early races went badly,
with Child in front of him in the
standings at the midway point of the
event. Luttmer, however, rebounded
in the later races.
"I was favoured, so there was a lot of
pressure on me. The event started out
badly, I got some bad breaks, and he
started well. He had a lead on me
halfway through the event, so I had to
keep my cool and fight back," he says.
In fact, Luttmer says the world
championships represented the
toughest week of his life.
"It was extra stressful. I've been
training for eight years to get to the
Olympics and it came down to one
event. You're very dependent on the
weather and the wind. I had to do
everything I had control of and hope
it was enough and this time it was."
The longtime member of the Royal
Canadian Yacht Club in Toronto and
the Frenchman's Bay Yacht Club in
Pickering will continue training and
competing right up to the start of the
Athens Olympics in August.
On Sunday, he's headed to Con-
necticut for the North American
Laser Sailing Championships.
Luttmer is a three-time North Ameri-
can champion and would dearly love
to add a fourth title to his resume --
something no other sailor has accom-
plished in the history of the event.
"That's been my goal for a long time
— to win the trophy more than any-
one else," he says.
In early July, Luttmer travels with
the Canadian Yachting Association to
Athens, Greece where he will train for
two weeks at the site of the Olympic
sailing events.
During the third week of July, he'll
move on to Warmunder, Germany
where he'll join all the top sailors in
the world at the European Sailing
Championships.
"That will be a good test. It will be a
chance to fine-tune my skills and keep
them sharp," says Luttmer.
He fully acknowledges that he'll be
upholding a strong sailing tradition
for Pickering at the upcoming
Olympics. Rod Davies represented
the city in the same laser class at the
1996 Games in Atlanta.
"There must be something special
in the waters of Frenchman's Bay.
Some very good sailors have come
from here. The laser class has been
part of the Olympics since Atlanta
and, of the past three quadrennial,
two times Frenchman's Bay sailors
have represented our nation. It's no
small coincidence, that's for sure,"
says Luttmer.
Luttmer credits his early years in
the sport, especially his training at
Swan's Marina and the Frenchman's
Bay Yacht Club in his youth, as the
grounding that kept him firmly an-
chored to sailing.
"Frenchman's Bay is a great place
to learn how to sail. I'm really sur-
prised that there aren't more people
out on it," he says.
Luttmer raced internationally at
age 14, earning a Canadian youth title
in 1997. That year at the World Youth
Sailing Championships, he finished
with a silver medal.
As for his Olympics experience,
there is one goal.
"I see myself winning gold — that's
the only way to go. I'm not a favourite
to win gold, but I have a shot and I'm
going to do everything in my power to
bring it home."
Luttmer, who's ranked among the
top 15 laser sailors on the planet, says
his chief competition will come from
Brazil's Robert Scheidt, who cap-
tured his seventh world champi-
onship in Bodrum. He won the gold
medal in 1996 in Atlanta and was the
silver medallist in Sydney.
Scheidt's the definite favourite, but
he's not invincible, says Luttmer. At
an Olympic test event in 2002,
Luttmer finished eighth overall, with
Scheidt ending up 11th.
"I'm at a level that I can compete
with the world's best, so I'm going
there to win."
NOTES: Luttmer typically spends
the winter months in warmer cli-
mates in order to continue training.
His winter training has taken him to
such locales as the Dominican Re-
public, Miami, Brazil and Athens... He
completed his degree in mechanical
engineering from Queen's University
in Kingston last April. Since that
time, he's been training full time for
the Olympics... Luttmer was a silver
medallist in laser sailing at the 2003
Pan Am Games in Santo Domingo,
Dominican Republic...

High school students
test the waters
Cricket match
makes local history
By Al Rivett
Sports Editor
DURHAM — The genteel game of
cricket and local high school sports
have never been associated — until
now.
Pickering High School, in Ajax, and
Pine Ridge Secondary School, in
Pickering, are in the process of mak-
ing local sports history by playing a
game of high school cricket. The test
match, played at the Ajax Cricket
Club, started Monday and concludes
today (Wednesday).
And, if Jason McKenzie has any-
thing to say about it, the sport will be-
come a permanent part of the local
high school sporting landscape.
"That's going to be logically the next
step," says McKenzie, a supply
teacher in Durham Region, who
coaches basketball at Pine Ridge.
"You just need two teams to have a
Lake Ontario Secondary School Ath-
letics (LOSSA) sport sanctioned and
recognized."
A graduate of Pickering High
School, McKenzie served as a liaison
between the two sides to get the crick-
et match on the field, saying the idea
was hatched six weeks ago after he
read a story on youths playing cricket
in Toronto.
"I wondered why the city of Toronto
has a city-wide championship and we
don't have any teams out here," he
says. "I talked to people at Pine Ridge
and they've had a team for the past
two or three years. It was like a club,
but there was no formal opposition.
Pickering High School has the same
kind of demographics as Pine Ridge,
so I wanted to see (if a game) could
happen. Pickering High School has a
Muslim Student Association, which
has been playing cricket for the past
year or so. I talked to people at Pick-
ering High and Pine Ridge and float-
ed the idea (of a game)."
At Pickering High, interest was
high, with 45 students attending an
organizing meeting.
"It snowballed into something we
couldn't have foreseen in such a rela-
tively short period of time," he says,
adding Pickering High has 25 players
on its team; Pine Ridge has 18 or 19.
McKenzie says he's not surprised
by the strong interest in a match be-
tween the schools and the eventual
formation of a league. Multicultural-
ism in Pickering and Ajax has grown
to the point where changes are need-
ed in what sports are offered at the
schools.
"Definitely, a lot has changed since I
was at Pickering (High) in 1986. The
sports that are offered have to change
and we have to see if cricket can be
put in the phys-ed curriculum. At one
time, there was square dancing at
Pickering High as it was considered a
rural school up until 1990. Schools
need to get with the times. We should
be offering sports that are culturally
responsive to the school population,"
he says.
McKenzie noted Pickering High
principal Al Monks has been a strong
proponent of introducing cricket as a
LOSSA sport, and has been actively
speaking with other Durham educa-
tors to gather support.
"That is the goal, because all of this
has taken place within the past six
weeks — going from nothing to a test
match between two schools," he says.
"It's just the beginning."

Second-best effort
from Felicien
PICKERING —Pickering Olympian
and two-time world champion hurdler
Perdita Felicien continued her preparation
last weekend for the 2004 Olympic
Games in Athens.
Felicien competed at the Seville
Grand Prix in Spain on Saturday, finishing
second in the 100-metre hurdles in a time
of 12.73 seconds. Delloreen Ennis-London
of Jamaica won in 12.68 seconds.
Last month,
Felicien compet-
ed at the presti-
gious Home
Depot Invitational
meet in Carson,
California where
she finished
fourth in a time
of 12.70 seconds.
Rival Gail Devers
finished second.
The leadup
to Athens contin-
ues for Felicien
who will compete
in several more
European meets,
including the
Golden Spike in
Ostrava, Czech Republic on Tuesday. The
result was unavailable at press time.
Next month, she competes at the
Canadian Track and Field Championships
and Olympic trials in Victoria from July 9
to 11.
Spartans cage
the Bengals
for tourney title
AJAX —The Ajax Spartans BMI pee-
wee rep baseball team tamed the Missis-
sauga Bengals to claim its first trophy of
the season, last weekend at the Vaughan
Tournament.
Playing in the consolation champi-
onship game against the heavily favoured
Bengals, the Spartans exploded for seven
runs early in the game, with strong pitch-
ing and defence carrying Ajax the rest of
the way to an 8-4 victory.
In the semifinal, the Spartans met a
strong Mississauga Majors team. Both
teams engaged in a gem of a game, cruis-
ing along to a scoreless tie after five. In
the sixth inning, however, the Majors
scored four runs to chalk up a hard-
fought 4-0 win, sending Ajax to the conso-
lation final.
The Spartans demolished the home-
town Vaughan I team 13-2 in the quarter-
final game to advance to the final four.
The Ajax boys doubled the score on
the Vaughan II squad 8-4 to start the tour-
nament. In Game 2, the Spartans
thumped Etobicoke 15-5 with great hitting
and pitching leading the way. The Ajax
peewees started out strongly, leading a
tough Mississauga Majors team 4-0 in the
early going. Mississauga, however, re-
bounded to score 10 runs to post a 10-5
win in Game 3.
In the next several weeks the Ajax
boys are looking at showing well at the
Burlington and Mississauga tournaments.
Af ter 18 games so far this season,
the Ajax peewees have lost only five con-
tests.
Team members are Jake Olynyk,
George Halim, Raihaan Patel, TJ Mckinlay,
Todd Blair, Wayne Feltham, Jaymee Young,
Brandon Kushner, Kyle Taylor, Andrew
Wa r d, Jeffrey Whittle and Thomas Fearon.
Powerful Tigers too
much for Pickering
PICKERING —The Pickering Power
under-11 girls' rep soccer team dazzled its
opposition last weekend to advance to
the championship game of the Grimsby
'Dazzling Dozen' Tournament.
The finals matched Pickering against
a strong Burlington Tigers team, with a
late Power comeback falling short in a 2-1
defeat.
Burlington jumped out to a 2-0 lead
after the first half. Pickering regrouped
and came out battling hard in the second,
getting a goal back. The Power continued
to press and attack, but were unable to
solve the Burlington goalkeeper.
The Tigers selected Pickering defend-
er Nicole 'Niki' Mayers as the champi-
onship game's most valuable player.
Pickering was pitted in the semifinal
against Saltfleet, a team determined to
exact some revenge for the 3-0 beating
by the Power earlier in the tourney. Pick-
ering defeated Saltfleet 2-0 to advance to
the championship game.
The Power started the tournament by
winning their first two games. Pickering
blanked Saltfleet 3-0 in Game 1. Next,
Pickering outlasted a tough Oakville squad
2-1, playing a strong second half.
Based on its two preliminary-round
wins, Pickering earned a bye into the
semifinals.
Other Pickering Power team mem-
bers are Taylor Warrington, Katrina Jegg,
Connie Cancellara, Kelly Bishop, Haley
Henderson, Dana Murphy, Bianca Munch,
Annalisa Iacobucci, Katherine Mitchell,
Sarah Diosi, Madison Marmina, Ashley
Tait and Linzee Exner.
Frank Mitchell, Ted Warrington and
Dorne Munch coach the team. The man-
ager is Nina Cancellara.

PERDITA FELICIEN
Second in Spain.
Pickering High
athlete shakes off
injury to win
provincial title
By Al Rivett
Sports Editor
DURHAM —An injury wasn't
enough to keep a Pickering High
School track athlete from an ap-
pointment with gold at the provin-
cial track and field championships
in Toronto last weekend.
Trojans track team captain Ryan
Finn, despite still feeling the pain
from a heel injury suffered in the
final of the open men's 2,000-metre
steeplechase, was able to compete -
and win - the gold in the senior
men's 800m at the Ontario Federa-
tion of School Athletic Associations
(OFSAA) championships at Etobi-
coke's Centennial Stadium.
The injury, says Finn, occurred
when he landed awkwardly while
entering a water pit in the steeple-
chase. After the race, it was discov-
ered he had suffered a contact
bruise.
Despite the injury, he still man-
aged to finish fifth in that event.
"I was really happy with it. It
would have been nice to place high-
er," he says.
Finn says his heel was heavily
taped prior to heading out on the
track for the 800m final Saturday.
He noted he had a severe case of
the jitters prior to the race due to
the injury.
"I was frightened. I really wanted
to win, but I didn't want to do any
damage," says the 17-year-old
Grade 11 student, who had won
OFSAA gold in the event in the
midget and junior categories.
The taping of his heel helped, but
only to a point.
"It kind of hurt. I just gritted my
teeth and kept running," he says.
Over the first 400 metres Finn
was part of the lead pack. But, as
race leader Paul Walker started to
sprint away, Finn decided to jump
out and go with him. It wasn't until
the final 100 metres that Finn took
the lead, holding on for the win in a
time of 1:54.93. He missed his per-
sonal best by .3 of a second.
His injured heel, however, forced
Finn to bow out of Pickering's
High's 4x400m relay team. The
foursome was disqualified in the
final.
Finn wasn't the only gold medal-
list for Ajax and Pickering track
and field athletes at OFSAA.
Hurdler Anthony Lue, also of
Pickering High, continued his solid
season after coming back from in-
jury a year ago. He won the gold
medal in the junior men's 100m hur-
dles in 14.35 seconds, following up
his gold-medal performances at the
Lake Ontario Secondary School
Athletics (LOSSA) championships
and the OFSAA Central Regionals,
where he won in 13.98.
The 15-year-old also competed in
the junior men's 300m hurdles
where he finished eighth.
Other top results among local
athletes were:
• Nikkita Holder, Dunbarton High
School, silver in the senior women's
100m hurdles in 13.77 seconds. She also
f inished sixth in the senior women's
200m;
• Amber Cushnie, Pine Ridge Sec-
ondary School, bronze in the junior
women's 3,000m in 10:15.44. Cushnie
was also fifth in the open women's
1,500m steeplechase;
• Charles Forbes, St. Mary Catholic
Secondary School, bronze in midget
men's 100m in 11.65 seconds;
• Pickering High's 4x100m senior
men's relay team of Ryan Gordon,
Matthew Lawrence, Stephen Lopez and
Aaron Bramwell-Cole won a bronze
medal;
• Sommer Blackman, Pickering
High, fourth in the senior women's triple
jump, with a leap of 10.97 metres;
• Coujoe Johnson, Dunbarton,
fourth in the junior men's triple jump,
with a leap of 13.39 metres.
• Stephen Lopez, Pickering High,
fourth in senior men's long jump, with a
leap of 6.88 metres;
• Michael Anderson, Notre Dame
Catholic Secondary School, fourth in
the junior men's 3,000m in 9:05.93;
• Evan Tsiopoulos, Pickering High,
fourth in midget men's 800m in 2:02.30;
and
• Jessica Nasmith, Pickering High,
fourth in junior women's 300m hurdles
in 45.64 seconds.

Pickering teens
want to turn
dreams into reality
DURHAM –The first Dreams to Re-
ality contest is close to completion
and a number of Pickering teens are
in the hunt.
The event, which saw hundreds of
young singers audition at local high
schools, ends with the selection of a
winner Sunday, June 13 at 7 p.m. at
the Italian Recreation Club, 245 Sim-
coe St. S., Oshawa.
The 19 finalists, who have complet-
ed a compilation CD, are ready for
the last competition in D2R, a pilot
project designed by producers Tony
Tosti and Barry Hall, co-founders of
Centre for Music and Sound Design
in Oshawa.
The finalists are competing for a
produced, personal demo CD.
They are Diana Aldridge, Dave Es-
peut and Hayley Preziosi from
O'Neill Collegiate in Oshawa, Steph
Lam, Nashelle Ouellette and Nicole
Williams from Donevan Collegiate in
Oshawa, Kyoko Fujimura, Dustin
LaFreniere and Ashley Wind from
Eastdale Collegiate in Oshawa,
Kiara Stewart from Anderson Colle-
g iate in Whitby, Anne O'Connor,
Sonia Plusa and Chantal Prymka
from Father Leo J. Austin in Whitby,
Tasha Allamby, Alysha Harris and
Jace Prohaska from Pine Ridge Sec-
ondary School in Pickering, and
Vanessa Corpuz, Danica Kotsopou-
los and Hagop Porpossian from St.
Mary's Catholic Secondary School in
Pickering.
Porpossian has high hopes for
Sunday's selection showcase. He
says everyone will be performing a
song, with his offering a rendition of
N'Sync's 'It's Gonna Be Me.'
"There's a lot of really talented
people in the show," says the Picker-
ing resident. "Everybody who's made
it this far is really talented."
He explains that they each sang
two songs for the demo and along
with the N'Sync song, he sang a bal-
lad, the Backstreet Boys' 'Show Me
the Meaning.' He chose those songs
from a karaoke CD he found.
"I felt comfortable singing those
songs especially," he says.
His musical taste ranges from pop
to rhythm and blues and he also en-
joys the music of Usher.
He's humble about his talents,
though. He has no formal vocal
training and not a lot of experience
outside of school musicals.
"Everybody seems to like (my
music) though," he says.
Prohaska will sing James Brown's
'I feel Good' Sunday for the show-
case. The song appeals to her be-
cause it's fast paced and she can
dance. She has been in vocal class for
five years and recently played Maril-
la in Pine Ridge's recent musical,
Anne of Green Gables.
She says the Dreams to Reality
contest and Sunday's show are good
experiences towards building a ca-
reer in singing, performing live under
pressure, which is what counts for
her.
"I want to be a singer," she says. "So
this is a stepping stone, win or lose."
Tosti and Hall set up the contest
to provide young people with a
chance to perform and showcase
their talents in a professional, com-
petitive and fun environment, some-
thing that's been lacking in Durham
Region, they say. The competition
isn't designed to make stars out of
anyone but to give young musicians
an idea of what's involved and
whether they want to go any further
in the industry.
The two men approached local
high schools and pitched their pro-
gram, which was picked up by sever-
al schools. They hope more will take
part next year.
To hear the finalists compete, tick-
ets are available at the Centre of
Music and Sound Design in the
McL aughlin Square, 50 Richmond
St. E., Oshawa, or by calling the cen-
tre at 905-571-7898. Tickets are $10 in
advance or $12 at the door.

In memoriam of
Suzanne Andrus
Past on June 9 2003
A year has past, but still my heart aches
to hear her voice.
I wish she could be here with us,
but she didn't have a choice.
Not always did we talk alot, sometimes
we fought like fools.
I might just have to say
she was as stubborn as a mule.
But love each other that we did,
to the end we would defend.
Because not only was
Soozee my sister,
she also was my best friend.
Sadly missed but happy the pain has ended.
Forever in our hearts
Penny & Dave,
Nieces Carly and Maddy
JONES, William (Bill) Bill was born on May 25th,
1915 in Middlesbrough, North Yorkshire, England
and passed on June 6th, 2004, at the Sunnybrook
Medical Centre, in his 90th year. Bill is prede-
ceased by his wife of 52 years Lily. He is survived
by his son David and his wife Jean (of England) and
Margaret and her husband Robin Barnes (of Eng-
land), Ann and her husband Joseph Comerford (of
Smith Falls), and twins Judy and husband Corry,
and Janice and her partner Philip (of Tsawwessen,
B.C.). He will be missed by his thirteeen Grandchil-
dren and seven Great Grandchildren. Bill was edu-
cated at Sir William Turner's School, Redcar and
Cambridge University, England. Bill started as a re-
search engineer in 1936, being engaged in the de-
sign of television receivers and transmitters. In early
1937 he became involved in the design and devel-
opment of Radar (RDF) systems and continued
through WWII developing many systems some of
which were vital to the success of the Battle of Brit-
ain. Starting as a junior engineer with Pye Ltd., he
eventually became chief engineer of Pye Telecom-
munications Ltd. He emigrated to Canada in 1950
to manage Pye Canada, the first industry in Ajax,
Ontario. In 1951 he became a "Dollar a Year" man
for C.D. Howe in the Department of Defense Pro-
duction (DDP) as head of Radar production during
the Korean War and the Cold War. Bill was a radar
pioneer and could tell many stories about the devel-
opment of radar. During his business life in Cana-
da, he was Chairman of the Ajax Industrial Associa-
tion, Chairman of the Ajax Industrial Commission,
Rotarian, President Transonic Limited, Vice Presi-
dent and GM of Pye Canada Ltd., Vice President of
Canastel Ltd., Vice President CJCH Halifax N.S.,
Director CHAN TV Vancouver, Founder and CEO of
CHOO Radio Ajax, Chairman Electronic Division
RETMA, Broadcast Consultant. Bill retired at the
age of 65, but went on as an engineering consultant
for AEG Telefunken Bayly, where he managed the
broadcast division for 10 years. Bill was a member
of the Half Century Club of the Canadian Associa-
tion of Broadcasters. As per Bill’s wishes a Cele-
bration of his and his wife Lily’s lives will be held at
a later date. If desired, donations made in Bill’s
memory to Rideau Lakes Home and Community
Support Services, 4 George Street South, Smith
Falls, Ontario K7A 1X4 would be appreciated. Ser-
vices entrusted to the ACCETTONE FUNERAL

PICKERING –She didn't win any
dough, but Jessica DeSilva proved
she is a whiz in the kitchen.
The Grade 11 student won a
bronze medal for her baking skills
at the Canadian Skills Competi-
tion, held in Winnipeg from May 27
to 30. She and the other competi-
tors had 12 hours stretched over
two days to come up with all the
finished products.
"I had to make flan, a loaf of
bread, rolls, three kinds of cookies
and decorate a cake," said the Pine
Ridge Secondary student.
Jessica travelled to Winnipeg
with her aunt and sister for the
two-day competition, adding, "It
was a really good experience." She
hopes to attend next year as well.
To make it to nationals, Jessica
placed first in the Ontario compe-
tition. She's considering a career
in baking.
DeSilva
bakes up
a top spot
Jessica DeSilva went to Winnipeg recently and won a bronze
medal for her baking skills in the Canadian Skills Competition.
