BY KRISTEN CALIS kcalis@durhamregion.com PICKERING -- A single mother who lost every- thing she owns in a Claremont fire has gotten so much support and donations, she could open a furniture store, she joked. “It’s overwhelming,” said Sara Pooler. “This community is amazing.” Ms. Pooler spoke Saturday during a fundrais- er held for herself and fellow fire victims Daniel Park, the building owner, and Derek Budarick, another tenant. The community came together just six days after the Claremont General Store, which has been in operation for around 150 years, went up in flames July 12. The Claremont and District Community Association and others quickly pulled together the event, which featured music, games, enter- tainment and food. About 200 people attended. The funds raised were still being tallied at the time of print but all will go to the victims. Reverend Rob Selby, of Claremont Unit- ed Church, said at first, the feeling among the community was fear, danger and a sense of what would happen next. “It’s a hub,” he said. “It really is.” But the community has proven stable and See CLAREMONT page 13 Claremont support ‘overwhelming’ COMMUNITY GATHERS FOR FUNDRAISER TO HELP FIRE VICTIMS BUSINESS 3 Lear in the clear?

The York-Durham Heritage Railway train departed from the historic Uxbridge train station on June 28 for a ride into Goodwood, shorter than the originally scheduled journey to Stouffville. The railway, operated by volunteers from all over the GTA, has been thrown off track somewhat this season with locomotive troubles but a backup engine did the trick on the most recent journey. Riders from around Durham boarded the vintage coaches just after 10 a.m. while a light rain fell. Also on board that day were a reporter and photographer from the Times-Journal. The train took passengers through the north Durham greenery, with some of the windows wide open to afford a grand view. “The scenery’s really nice and it’s just fun,” said Angie Starr, up from south Durham with a group of friends calling themselves Ladies of the Knight. “It gives us a chance to gossip,” said anoth- er in the group. An announcement came through the intercom for passengers pok- ing their head out an open window to be wary, as tree branches whip across the side of the train at some points. The train slowed for a big bend in the track as it neared Goodwood. “When are we gonna go fast?” asked young Caroline Pretty, riding with her aunt, Alex Pretty. “I’ve driven by (the train) so many times and I’ve never been on it, it’s really nice,” Ms. Pretty said, telling her niece to watch for animals along the route. Kids on board were also entertained with books and a model train set in one of the coaches. The train arrived at its destination in about a half an hour. Then, dur- ing a short stop, staff performed a “runaround”, connecting the engine to the other side of the train for the journey back to Uxbridge. While free horse and wagon rides are usually offered from the station, the service was cancelled that day as the rain picked up strength. But despite the train woes and the rain, riders, including Justin McDonald, of Ajax, enjoyed the experience. “It’s like a little history lesson,” he said. “I’m usually on the TTC sub- way (in Toronto), so it’s a little different to be on a train like this. I’d want to come here again.” YDHR officials advise those wishing to ride the train, which runs until October, to visit ydhr.on.ca or call 905-852-3696 first for updates.

Don’t Miss it!Open TilOpen Til MidnightMidnight Two shifts will build seats for Chrysler BY MELISSA MANCINI mmancini@durhamregion.com AJAX -- Workers from Lear Ajax have rati- fied a deal to bring new work to the empty plant in 2010. The plant, which closed its doors in May because it was no longer supplying seats for the General Motors Oshawa truck plant, is poised to start building again, this time for Chrysler. As part of the deal, the plant will be working two shifts to supply seats for Chrys- ler models LX, LD and LC. The work is slated to start November 2010. On July 20, 86 per cent of skilled trades members and 83 per cent of production workers voted to ratify the deal. The agree- ment is now subject to approval by regula- tory authorities as part of Lear Corporation’s restructuring plan. Canadian Auto Workers Local 1090 presi- dent Steve Batchelor said it seems like the union has been negotiating the deal forever. “It’s an opportunity to bring 200 to 250 jobs (to the plant),” he said. “It will allow people to work towards retirement.” As part of the agreement, the union had to accept wage cuts and a reduction in benefit levels, Mr. Batchelor said. Some workers said they will be back to work, trying to complete 30 years of service so they can collect a pension. “How many times do factories close and get to come back?” Scott Bate said. Mr. Bate worked for the com- pany for 20 years and said he feels like work- ers have been raked over when it comes to contracts lately. But he said he is relieved he will have a chance to continue working for the company. “The main thing is your retire- ment, your pension,” he said. “That is what you work towards.” Employees who chose not to return to the line next year can take a severance package. Rodney Hargrove, CAW 1090 financial sec- retary, was succinct about his thoughts on the deal. “We’re going to live to fight another day.” BUSINESS Lear Ajax ratifies deal to reopen plant RON PIETRONIRO / METROLAND OSHAWA -- Lear employees, members of CAW Local 1090, checked out a proposed new deal presented to them at a ratifica- tion vote on July 20.

All content copyright Editorial Opinions WORK Sick days should only be used when person is really sick To the editor: I’ve heard the advertisements by the Toronto workers regarding “sick days.” Sick days should only be used if a person is sick and then only in the fiscal period designated, certainly not banked so that one may retire early using sick days. In the corporate world, this cost is passed on to the consumer and we can see how well that worked out by the example of General Motors. This cost is passed on by way of taxes and I do not agree with that unless the taxpayer receives the same benefit as well. Yes, I know they work hard, but they are compensated for by their labours with wages, just as you or I. This is a benefit or perk and I look at it this way. As a taxpayer, my neighbour gets sick and I pay for it. I get sick and, because I don’t have this benefit, I have two choices: tough it out and go to work or stay home and lose the pay. Do I think it is fair that I pay for a benefit that I’m not entitled to? Absolutely not. Do I think we should all have this benefit? No, not in today’s global economy. Elizabeth Dixon Pickering RELIGION Cartoon showed poor taste, insensitivity To the editor: Re: Editorial page cartoon, July 16. I liked the letters that surrounded the cartoon on the editorial page. One touted multiculturalism and the value of the lan- guages other than English and French that are spoken in this great land. The other spoke of patriotism and showing respect for the Canadian flag, our national symbol. Respect, multiculturalism and the value of differences are wonderful themes. The cartoon was interesting in that the “lousy wafer” that you refer to in the car- toon means more to a billion people around the world than the Canadian flag ever did or ever will. It means more to a lot of Catholics in this country too. Catholics constitute close to 50 per cent of our population. Is that why multiculturalism doesn’t apply to them and you won’t extend even the slightest bit of sensitivity for their beliefs? Do you have to be a minority to merit any respect? I’m just curious. The last time a cartoon poked fun at a certain very peaceful religion that I won’t name, violence and mayhem erupted all over the world. I’m sure you wouldn’t publish a cartoon insulting that level-headed group because you know you’d get more than a letter. Luckily, Catholics in this country won’t do anything like that. They are too civilized and too Christian which after all, sums up what makes being a Canadian a good thing. Too bad that’s changing. Paul Mundra Pickering * * * Like many of your readers, I enjoy a clev- er cartoon. The one, about our prime min- ister, was done in very poor taste. A wafer (host) given, during the Eucharist, to a Roman Catholic or to an Anglican repre- sents the body of Christ and should not be the butt of any joke or cartoon. I am surprised that Oshawa This Week would publish something that has the potential to offend so many members of our local community. Thom Park Oshawa Bridge tributes show how much our soldiers mean to us The death last week of Private Sebas- tien Courcy, the 125th Canadian soldier to die in Afghanistan since 2002, is a grim reminder to all of us of the terrible toll war takes on our troops. Pte. Courcy, 26, is just the latest in a long line of men and women who have paid the ultimate price to fight for freedom. Many more have been badly injured as they have tried to provide security in the attempt to rebuild a land battered and war-torn after decades of fighting. Our troops are there, of course, in the wake of the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks on New York City and Washington which killed thou- sands of innocent people, including two dozen Canadians. Those attacks were, in part, organized by leadership from Afghanistan, the last known place where Osama bin Laden was seen alive. So we are paying the price and doing our brave duty in that far away place. Here at home, on the bridges over the Highway of Heroes, local citizens have been diligent and regular in their sup- port of our troops. They come out by the hundreds every single time another fall- en soldier makes his sad final journey from Trenton to Toronto down the 401 to honour his service. It’s a heartfelt salute to those who were taken from us far too soon. Many of these troops leave behind young families. They were just starting out in life, with hopes and dreams. But they believed in what they were doing. We would urge all those who come out to the bridges to take care and be safe. While it’s very important to remember the sacrifices made by those who have been killed in battle, remember where the tributes are taking place. Watch yourself near the 401 on and off ramps. Don’t walk on the ramps and, when standing on the bridges, keep an eye on traffic crossing over them. Take care of any children you take along. The last thing we need is a needless tragedy occurring at a bridge tribute while we are saluting our heroes. While we are on the topic of bridge tributes, we should remember that they should be reserved strictly for those times when a soldier has been repatri- ated from overseas. While last Saturday’s Highway of Heroes Salute Ride, which saw 200 motorcycle riders drive from Whitby to CFB Trenton in support of wounded soldiers, is an honourable idea and worthy of support, it doesn’t merit a bridge tribute. Those should be left only for times when the bodies of soldiers return in order to maintain the solemnity and importance of such occasions. e-mail letters to newsroom@durhamregion.com / max. 200 words / please include your full first and last name, city of residence & daytime phone number / letters that do not appear in print may be published @ newsdurhamregion.com newsdurhamregion.comNews Advertiser • July 22, 20096 P SABRINA BYRNES / METROLAND AJAX -- Daniel Goncalves, of the 48th Highlanders, stood with a comrade on the Harwood Avenue bridge July 19, to pay his respects to the family of Pte. Sebastien Courcy, the 125th Canadian soldier to die in the Afghanistan mission. About 250 peo- ple were on the bridge to show their support during the repatriation ceremony. WE ASKED Well-loved mother and friend remembered for sense of joy BY JOHN WIGGERS My sister-in-law Wendy Forbes passed away this week, and I am writing this to share an amazing serendipity that hap- pened last night which relates directly to her. I’ve known Wendy for almost as long as I’ve known my wife Teresa, which is 26 years. Wendy was married to Teresa’s old- est brother Mike, and given that Teresa has nine brothers and sisters, Wendy became somewhat of a matriarch early on to the Forbes family -- especially to the youngest siblings. Wendy was blonde and petite and a restless bundle of energy -- with a disposition very much akin to the Energizer Bunny. She was always busy doing something, usually involv- ing the organization of various family events. Whether it was Thanksgiving, Christmas dinners, Easter, weddings, birth- days, family picnics, parties or any other excuse for people to gather, you could always count on Wendy to be immersed in the thick of the workload to get things done and make sure everyone was having a good time. Wendy also had more than her share of sadness and trag- edy in life, including the passing of her dear mother-in-law Betty in 1995; followed by her own mother passing away unexpectedly shortly thereafter; the breakup of her marriage to Mike; meeting, then losing (to cancer) the love of her life Paul Farquharson a few years ago; plus raising her own chil- dren as a single mom while holding a full-time job and car- ing for a bed-ridden father who was himself injured in a car accident. Although Wendy’s challenges would have crushed most lesser beings with greater ease, Wendy bravely contin- ued onward as if undaunted. Through it all, one of her greatest joys was dancing and one song in particular stood out amongst all others: namely Ras- putin by the band Boney M. Regardless of where you were, once you heard that song begin to play all you had to do was look to the dance floor and you knew you would find Wendy dancing her Cossack dance in tune with the music. Invari- ably it became Wendy with the floor to herself, surrounded by friends and loved ones clapping in tune to the music while Wendy danced. There were times where her ability to dance and high kick (in heels, no less) would defy gravity. Last year, Wendy was overjoyed to become a grandmoth- er for the first time, to a baby girl named Ashleigh. Not long afterwards, a routine doctor’s visit to check out an annoying cough resulted in a shocking diagnosis: Wendy had lung can- cer. Even worse, the particular cancer Wendy was diagnosed with was especially aggressive with almost zero hope for recovery. Chemotherapy would buy time, but not a cure. Wendy decided to undergo the treatments because she resolved herself to being on hand to witness her granddaugh- ter’s first birthday. And while Wendy’s condition rapidly dete- riorated in recent months, she did manage to achieve her goal. Then last Monday, less than a week later, Wendy passed away peacefully in her sleep. While the news was expect- ed and somewhat inevitable, it still came as a shock. The remainder of the week became a flurry of activity to make the necessary phone calls, finalize arrangements, attend visita- tions and finally, on Thursday, lay Wendy to rest. True to Wendy’s organized and giving nature, she had already made arrangements to host a reception at her favou- rite restaurant following the funeral ceremony. She also made sure that a round of drinks on her was taken care of at the reception. Wendy was true to being Wendy, even after she was gone. Then last night, a group of us ended up attending a char- ity fundraising dinner/dance to raise money in support of Hearth Place, a local organization committed to supporting cancer patients. While plans to attend this event had been made months in advance, it just happened to take place a mere two days after we buried Wendy. In some way, all of us were relieved to go, because most of us were drained at the week’s events and were happy to have an evening where someone else was looking after meals, cleaning up, etc. The weather was a perfectly warm summer’s evening, and the venue of an empty hangar at the local municipal airport could not have been better. The hangar doors were wide open, which made the space feel like a giant gazebo. A vin- tage Beaver Seaplane was parked outside, along with a num- ber of vintage 1970s muscle cars -- in keeping with the retro 1970s theme of the evening. There were raffles and live auctions planned for the eve- ning, and around the perimeter of the space were countless tables holding items for Silent Auction. There were all the usual goods such as gift certificates, clothing etc., and I had my eye of a pair of field-level Toronto Blue Jays tickets, as well as a stainless steel Budweiser beer cooler. As Teresa and I walked around the tables we came upon an anonymous donation of a hand-knit afghan, on top of which sat a white stuffed Teddy bear. Attached to the bear was a tag that read: “The Wendy Bear.” The inside of the tag read as fol- lows: “The Wendy Bear is being sold in memory of Wendy Sittler -- the very special late wife of hockey legend Darryl Sittler ... The money raised from the sale of The Wendy Bear will go towards helping terminally-ill patients spend time at home with their loved ones. Because Wendy was such a kind, car- ing and generous individual, we dedicate this bear in her memory.” Teresa and I looked at each other and we both had goose- bumps. Not only did this bear share the same name as our Wendy, but Darryl Sittler was one of her heroes as captain of her beloved Toronto Maple Leafs. In addition, the descrip- tion of Wendy Sittler was equally applicable to “our” Wendy. Teresa wasted no time in grabbing the pen to place the open- ing bid on this bear. As the evening progressed, Teresa made an effort to keeps tabs on how the bids were progressing. While she told me she didn’t really care if she won it or not, I knew what she really meant was that she wanted the bear. And, so, I abandoned my bids for the tickets and cooler and focussed on winning the bear. Despite a flurry of activity near the end of the eve- ning, we ended up with the winning bid. After paying for this item ,I brought the bear and afghan back to the table and Teresa was clearly overjoyed. She wrapped herself in the afghan while others in our group took turns checking out the stuffed bear. And then, it happened. Whatever song had been playing came to a close, and the familiar drum riff that opened Ras- putin began to play. All of us looked at each other with abso- lute shock, with one saying “O.M.G., I cannot believe this is happening.” Needless to say with The Wendy Bear in our hands, and Rasputin beginning to play, there was no ques- tion we all had to get up to dance. And, yes, even I, who in 26 years had never danced once with our Wendy while she was alive (and for good reason, since I cannot dance,) I too got up to dance. Our whole table was on the floor. We danced in a circle and the girls took turns dancing with The Wendy Bear -- invariably kicking this stuffed bear’s legs high the way our Wendy used to do. My brother-in-law John took photos, and if he’s reading this, I’ll remind him that there are “Terms of Use” policies that prohibit him from publish- ing photos of me dancing, due to the offensive nature of such material. Afterwards everyone talked about how “weird” it was for such a coincidence to happen, and there was speculation that one of us requested for the song to be played. All of us swore emphatically that this was not the case. The song just “happened”, seemingly by chance. While some might dismiss this as a mere coincidence, my feeling is that on some level, this was Wendy’s way of saying good-bye. And rather than going out on a sad note, she did so by finding a way to express herself in the final act of dancing to the song that gave her the greatest joy. To the anonymous donor of the knit afghan and The Wendy Bear, I would like to say thank you for your kind heart and warm generosity. Your efforts last night are measured in ways far greater than the dollars you raised for a worthy cause. You helped give closure to a number of people by enabling us to say good-bye to the tragic loss of a loved one in the best way possible. And to Wendy, I say goodbye and we love you. While the pain of your passing may eventually be healed with time, you can never be replaced. You will be missed and always be dear to our hearts.

He inputs upwards of 160 words per min- ute, runs his own business and is a member of numerous committees and boards across Durham Region. While most other Durham Region entre- preneurs take mobility for granted, Mr. Feldman can’t. He doesn’t have the use of his arms and has limited use of his legs. So how does he do it? That’s a question not easily answered. It’s something that took him three years to figure out. The Ajax resident has a knack for business. It served him well in his years with McDon- ald’s where he worked in a variety of mana- gerial positions beginning in the 1970s and moved up the ranks of the fast-food corpo- ration. His last position, as a trainer in the late 1980s, took him all over the country. But, after starting a young family with his wife Gayle in the early 1990s, the hard-driv- ing executive wanted a change of pace. He wanted to spend more time at home and less time flying around the country working long, crazy hours. “They were growing up and I wasn’t see- ing them,” he said of his two young kids. A chance meeting with a couple at a course he was taking with his wife moved him out of the restaurant business and into the pic- ture-framing business. Life was heading in a completely new direction for the couple. Picture framing was booming for the Feld- mans after they landed two major accounts - - with an exclusive Brampton art gallery and with the Palette Art Gallery in the Oshawa Centre. The Feldmans had enough work to keep them busy. “We found out there was some pretty good money in it,” he said. Best of all, Mr. Feldman was close to home. Despite the fact he was working hard, he was alongside his wife and was close to his family. But then tragedy struck. His wife was diag- nosed with cancer and later died. It was a troubling time for his family but one they worked through together. But it was about to get worse. MR. Feldman looks up and moves his head to the right to adjust his wheelchair. The chair automatically moves backwards. Looking out the window, he turns back the clock to explain the series of events that occurred once he returned to work after his wife’s death. “It started with weakness in my arms. It was a funny sensation like your arms were going to collapse. The doctor at first thought it was carpel tunnel (syndrome).” It wasn’t. A neurologist later diagnosed that the motor nerves in his arms were dying. Motor nerves move a person’s body parts when the brain tells them to move. Mr. Feldman still had feelings in his arms and hands but he was slowly losing the ability to use them. His right arm was the first to go but he still had the use of his left arm to help him get around, feed himself and do the everyday tasks. “Then I got up one morning and went to grasp a spoon and it was gone,” he said. EXPRESSIONS of concern, puzzlement, resignation -- Mr. Feldman has seen them all on the faces of his various doc- tors, specialists and neurologists. Not one of them has been able to give him a diagnosis. He’s only been told what he doesn’t have. “They call it a lower motor neuron dis- ease.” A number of illnesses fall into the category of motor neuron disease. Among the most well-known is ALS or Lou Gehrig’s Disease. Another is spinal muscular atrophy. In most cases, doctors can’t immediately diagnose the disease. The patient is forced to wait until other symptoms appear. “When something like this takes place, you sort of have to sit back and wait and see what’s going to happen in order to give it a final name,” he said. What gave him comfort was that he didn’t have any muscle quivers in his arms. That’s a classic sign of Lou Gehrig’s Disease which typically has a two- to five-year life expec- tancy after diagnosis. “To this date they (doctors) haven’t been able to put a title to it (his disease) and I’m 14 years into it,” he said. ALL his life Mr. Feldman has worked. He’s not happy unless he’s busy. But in 2002, after he’d given up his business, he started running out of money and needed a job. He visited Canada Manpower to find work and was quickly referred to various service providers. He shakes his head when he recalls the three years of frustration he had to endure. It was one of the lowest points of his life. Service provider after service provider assessed his skills and were able to do noth- ing for him, he explained. “They turned out to be a total joke and I wasted months and months trying to turn things around,” he said. “Don’t bring me in, run me through your programs so you can make money and then sit there and tell me ‘I’m sorry,’” he said. As he speaks, his bright blue eyes well up as he relives the nightmare of being passed around. It appears he wants to smash his fist down on the arm of his wheelchair -- if only he could. “I was so frustrated and angry and tired of the runaround.” Mr. Feldman even enlisted the help of his doctors but nobody could tell him what to do. One doctor told him to just go home and collect disability. “I’m saying the same thing to each one of them -- I want to work. I have never not worked in my entire life,” he said. Finally he did the last thing he ever want- ed to do and went on disability. “It’s not that you don’t want to work but what do you do?” he said. But a chance reading of a newspaper arti- cle was about to change Mr. Feldman’s life forever. In it he found an answer, something he’d been denied for a very long time.

The crash, at about 11:25 a.m., resulted in the closure of Hwy. 12 for several hours as police investigated. The Pickering woman, whose name was not released, was rushed to hospital in Orillia with life-threatening injuries before being trans- ferred to Sunnybrook hospital in Toronto. The 43- year-old gravel truck driver wasn’t hurt, police said. Hwy. 12 was eventually re-opened at about 5 p.m. Thursday. Whitby OPP continue to investigate.

But she added there’s been no sign of her cat, Jessie. “We’ve got people keeping an eye out for her,” her mother assured her.

West Durham clinched the best-of-five series with a 10-4 victory, and will now move on to the East final against Peterborough. Patriots are moving on West Durham eliminates Clarington Shamrox in game four of series BY BRAD KELLY bkelly@durhamregion.com BOWMANVILLE -- In the end, it was the team that executed the best that prevailed, and in this case, it was the West Durham Patriots. In the playoff battle featuring a pair of Dur- ham Region Jr. C teams, West Durham closed out the East Division semifinal in Bowmanville on Monday night, handing the Clarington Shamrox a 10-4 setback in Game 4 of the best- of-five series. West Durham coach Jimmy Cox praised his club for getting better as the series progressed, culminating with wins in games three and four after the opening two games of the series were split. “Tonight we executed a lot better than we did earlier in the series,” he said. “It was a tough series. We tried to give it away to (Clar- ington) Friday night, up three goals with a minute to go and ended up winning by one. At no time is that team out of it. You have to play right to the end.” On the other side of the ledger, Claring- ton coach Randy Richards pointed to some missed opportunities early in the game that ultimately cost his club in the end. “This game, we didn’t put the ball in the net early and that really cost us,” he said. “They got some fast break goals that really killed us. “The guys just needed to work a little harder. They looked a little tired. Maybe they should have been in a little better shape, I’m not sure. Certainly we can work on things for next year.” West Durham jumped out to a 3-0 lead and was never tied at any point, although Clar- ington did close to within one on two occa- sions at 3-2 and again at 4-3. But by the end of the second period, West Durham was up 6- 4, closing out the series with four unanswered goals in the third. Blake Fraser made a big contribution for West Durham, scoring four times and add- ing an assist before being forced out of the game with a serious shoulder injury following a fight with under seven minutes to go. Todd Nakasuji led the Patriots with 14 points in the four games, including a goal and four helpers in Monday’s win. Gareth Gibson scored twice, with singles to Spencer Takeda, Dakota Wat- son and Conner Sargeant. For Clarington, Spencer Cole netted two, with one each to Luke Calberry and Zach Holub for the expansion team that may have come up a little short on the experience side of the post season. “A little bit I think,” agreed Richards. “There were some guys who were giving it everything and some others who weren’t quite there. Experience is everything. “Hopefully they will learn from it and make the jump next year.” As for West Durham, it makes the jump into the East final against Peterborough, a team Cox called the class of the league after a 14-1 regular season. “That is going to be a very tough series,” admitted Cox. “The last two games we played them we were close and one of them went to overtime and the last game we only lost by one goal. We have proven in my mind that we can play with them.” Details for the Peterborough series weren’t available at press time. JR. C LACROSSE HOCKEY Stoneburgh invited to women’s U18 hockey selection camp in Calgary DURHAM -- Pickering’s Shannon Stoneburgh and Whitby’s Kelly Terry have been invited to the National Wom- en’s Under-18 Team selection camp, July 23-30 at Father David Bauer Olym- pic Arena in Calgary. All 42 of the athletes selected to take part in camp also participated in the National Women’s Under-18 Team strength and conditioning/skating camp in May in Calgary. Invitations to the May strength and conditioning/skating camp were based on evaluations done by Hockey Canada regional scouts during the 2008-09 season. These evaluations included players’ performances with their club teams, along with the 2008 National Women’s Under-18 Champion- ship in Napanee. Both players are defencemen, with Stoneburgh playing last year with Dur- ham West, while Terry was with Whitby, both in the Provincial Women’s Hockey League. Hockey Canada will use the July camp to select 22 players for a three- game series against the United States’ women’s Under-18 Select Team in Cal- gary, August 24-27. Following the three-game series, Hockey Canada’s regional scouts, along with the under-18 coaching staff, will evaluate players at the 2009 National Women’s Under-18 Championship and with their club teams, with the goal of selecting a team for the 2010 IIHF World Women’s Under-18 Championship, March 27 to April 3, 2010 in the United States. “The upcoming camp is the first step in our journey toward winning a world championship in 2010,” says Dan Church, head coach of Canada’s Under- 18 Team.

SOCCER Stars shine brightly Ajax U8 soccer team wins championship AJAX -- The Ajax U8 Sklar Pep- pler Stars from the Ajax Soccer Club once again did not disap- point their fans at the 2009 Ajax Mini Tournament and became the U8 girls tournament champi- ons. The Stars won against all three of their early opponents, beating Pickering Power Gold 2-0, Peter- borough 8-0 and Grimsby 12-0 to clinch a spot in the semifinals against Markham. The Ajax Stars proved too much for Markham in the semifinals and took a firm 3-1 victory to advance to the finals. With Pickering Power Gold also winning their semifinals against Pickering Power Green, the finals promised to be an inter- esting rematch game against the Ajax Stars. The emotional final came com- plete with determined players, extremely loud cheering and some great coaching, but in the end, the Ajax Stars duplicated their earlier efforts against Pickering Power Gold and won the game 2-0. This very exciting game was the best performance given by these two teams, by far, this year. Team members include coach Roland Chow, assistant coach Samantha Gauvreau, assistant coach Darren Pagliaroli, team manager Jennifer Knight-Aguas, Claudia Aguas, Alexandria Blake, Lena Dennis, Chloe Ferreira, Jah- moia Henderson, Faith Holmes, Valerie Lantaigne, Anna Miller, Alyssa Pagliaroli, Rhys Peter- kin, Nailah Rowe, Natalia Snow, Kaliee Vitalis, Kaelin Wright.
