PICKERING -- Anne Bragg’s five daughters
keep things lively, to say the least.
Her middle daughter, five-year-old Rebec-
ca, who has autism with hyperactivity, con-
tributes to the hectic lifestyle that comes
along with a family of seven.
“She is high-functioning but only has about
30 words in her vocabulary,” Ms. Bragg said,
adding she has potential to function in soci-
ety, as well as the possibility to use regular
speech.
Ms. Bragg and her husband, Robert, make
use of “Footprints,” a weekly outreach pro-
gram at Dunbarton-Fairport United Church,
which offers a respite program for families
with children 13 years and under that have

PICKERING -- Tropix Nightclub has removed
a big item from its menu for the time being:
alcohol.
The Alcohol and Gaming Commission
of Ontario suspended the restaurant and
bar’s licence following a fight on its patio last
week, said AGCO spokeswoman Lisa Murray.
Besides the interim suspension, which stipu-
lates Tropix cannot sell or serve alcohol until
later instructed, it was also given a notice of
proposal to revoke the liquor licence.
Police said a fight with broken beer bottles
broke out at around 1:30 a.m. last Friday, Aug.
7, which was followed by several gunshots,
according to witnesses. Police were called to
the Liverpool Road bar, near Hwy. 401 and,
after a search, located and arrested three
men. One man suffered a gash to the head,
but there were no serious injuries reported,
police said. It hasn’t been reported whether a
gun was ever found.
Ms. Murray said police asked a represen-
tative of the club if security had intervened,
to which the rep said it did. However, upon
review of the security tape, that was not the
case, she said.
“Basically, the AGCO had reason to believe
that it was not in the public interest to allow
the establishment to continue to be licensed
because it could not ensure that patrons
would be safe on the premises, or at least
that it would do the maximum it could do to
ensure the patrons are safe,” she said.
Tropix general manager, Teena Dyer, was
there that night, but said she was there as
a patron, not an employee. She was on the
patio when the fight broke out and said there
were three or four security guards present,
along with an owner. They did intervene and
escorted out those involved in the fight, she
said. She even watched the security tape and
saw that was the case, she said. The owner
did not return calls to the News Advertiser.

Average price of
single-detached
homes increases in 2009
BY KRISTEN CALIS
kcalis@durhamregion.com
PICKERING -- Despite a study showing
decreasing values of single-detached
homes throughout most of the 65 Toron-
to Real Estate Board districts, Pickering’s
have surged.
“I think Pickering is desirable because
of its close proximity to Toronto, and
there’s a lot to offer here,” said Ward 2
Regional Councillor and RE/MAX sales
representative Bill McLean.
The recent RE/MAX ‘Return on Invest-
ment Report’ found the average price
of a single-detached home in Pickering
climbed 3.72 per cent to $389,536 in the
first six months of 2009 from $375,577 a
year ago.
Pickering placed second, behind the
Beach area in Toronto, which saw a 3.79
per cent increase.
Of the areas surveyed, only 11 (17 per
cent) reported an upswing in the value
of single-detached homes, the report
said, which included the Pickering area
of E13 (from Hwy. 401 to the south,
Taunton Road to the north, Scarbor-
ough-Pickering Townline Road to the
west and the Ajax-Pickering border to
the east).
“It’s a great place,” said Christine Mar-
tysiewicz, RE/MAX Ontario-Atlantic
Canada spokeswoman. “It’s affordable.
You get a lot of house for your dollar.”
Although Pickering saw an increase in
value, it’s still far behind Toronto prices.
The average single home in the Beach is
$715,422.
Pickering’s been ideal for first-time
home buyers, she said.
The most popular homes are two-sto-
rey, Ms. Martysiewicz said. They sit on
the market for an average of 36 days,
which is only a week longer than last
year’s average, when the economic fore-
cast was stormy. The number of units
sold is down only five per cent from last
year.
Coun. McLean says Pickering’s close
proximity to Toronto has drawn a lot
of buyers. If someone’s considering a
less expensive home in Bowmanville or
Courtice, they may factor in travel if they
have to commute to Toronto.
“The money you may save on a house
there you may spend on wear and tear
on the road,” he said.
Besides, a number of jobs and busi-
nesses have been popping up in
Pickering, he said.
Also, many are drawn to Pickering’s
older subdivisions that have larger,
mature lots. Since there aren’t many
new homes going up, resales have been
popular.
He suggested buyers could be spend-
ing their money before the tax harmoni-
zation takes place, which will take effect
next July.
“Buy now, save yourself eight per cent
across the board on a lot of the costs,” he
said.
Coun. McLean sees the prices of
new homes continuing to climb large-
ly because much of the lumber supply
has been lost to recent British Columbia
fires.

Rouge Valley Health
System’s Ajax-Pickering
site lost $2 million
BY JASMEET SIDHU
newsroom@durhamregion.com
DURHAM -- A second man has been
arrested in connection to the money-
laundering scheme that saw Rouge Val-
ley Health System in Ajax-Pickering lose
millions during the span of eight years.
Uwe Marshner, 60, of Pickering, was
arrested Monday in Durham Region
and charged with fraud over $5,000 and
laundering the proceeds of crime.
In late June, Toronto police arrested
64-year-old Ryerson professor Sheldon
Reinsilber. A warrant for Mr. Marshner
was issued at the same time.
Two suspects are accused of running
an eight-year false-invoice scheme from
April 1, 1999, to Feb. 28, 2007, that alleg-
edly involved more than $2 million taken
from the Rouge Valley Health System.
Police began the investigation in Sep-
tember 2007 after
an internal investi-
gation by the Rouge
Valley Health Sys-
tem discovered the
false invoices for
services not ren-
dered, said Det.
Const. Niki Laxama-
na.
“The stolen money
was from annu-
al operating dol-
lars provided by the
Ministry of Health
and Long-Term Care. Due to the action
of two (suspects), children, adolescent
and adult mental health patients did not
receive all the care they were entitled
to,” Det. Const. Laxamana said.
If convicted, both men could face up
to 10 years in jail.
Mr. Reinsilber made a court appear-
ance at College Park on Aug. 6.
Mr. Marshner is expected to appear in
court Sept. 22.
Because the matter is before the courts
RVHS spokesman Dave Brazeau couldn’t
comment, but said the monetary loss
was covered by insurance.
“The hospital does have insurance cov-
erage for this,” he said.

QUITTING THE HABIT
Schools should eliminate
smoking areas
To the editor:
Re: Quitting: It’s such a drag, Aug. 4.
I started to smoke at the age of 15 in high
school just to fit in with the rest of the stu-
dent who smoke.
I think if schools didn’t provide smoking
areas far fewer teenagers would become
addicted and live longer and healthier
lives.
I was finally able to quit 27 years later at
the cost of one massive stroke and I believe
it was smoking that took my mom’s life.
Now that I have quit smoking, my health
is improving slowly.

VIEWPOINT
Cancer society
deserves better coverage
To the editor:
Re: Oshawa woman cries foul over cancer
society policy, Aug. 6.
This article upset me greatly.
The Durham Region branch of the
Canadian Cancer Society is run by a
small, hardworking and dedicated group
of paid staff and a huge army of wonder-
ful volunteers.
These people spend countless hours
driving patients, providing peer coun-
selling, supporting newly diagnosed
patients, fundraising and performing
office work.
The list goes on.
Your paper has ignored the dedication
of these people.
More importantly you chose to ignore
the fact that these volunteers raise more
funds for Durham Region than any other
group in Ontario.
I write this as a private individual who
is a cancer survivor who can personally
attest to the good work that our local unit
does each and every day.
I also volunteer there and know that
each fundraising dollar is spent in the
wisest of fashions.
You, at the very least, owe this organi-
zation a positive story if you are going to
place such a huge emphasis on a nega-
tive one.

WARNING
Take care to avoid geese
on Hwy. 2 near Salem Road
To the editor:
Along Hwy. 2, just east of Salem Road,
there is a beautiful new man-made pond/
parkette.
It attracts wildlife, including numerous
Canadian Geese.
Unfortunately, the builders have not
surrounded the area with a fence and the
geese are wandering onto the highway
and getting killed.
I know this firsthand as I had no option
but to run a young goose over, it was
either that or cause a car accident as I
had nowhere to go. I am an animal lover
and I go out of my way to help our wild-
life.
Killing this goose is something I will
never forget.
There are many areas in Ajax that attract
geese and I have never seen any dead on
the road until this pond was construct-
ed.
There is surely some bylaw that requires
it to be fenced in, not unlike swimming
pools.
Even a divider between the pond and
road would help.
I hope the builder reads this letter and
takes appropriate action and I hope your
readers read this and take caution if they
drive by it.
Use proper compost bags to do your part for the environment
If you want to be absolutely sure your
compost is taken away from the curb
when you leave it there for pickup, make
sure you use certified compostable liner
bags.
That’s the firm message that has been
delivered by waste technicians working
with the Region of Durham.
The reason is simple: plastic in non-
certified compostable bags may not
break down properly and doesn’t prop-
erly decompose along with the com-
post inside them. And, according to the
Region, that’s not only bad for the envi-
ronment and defeats the purpose of
composting, but is also a problem for the
contractor, Miller Waste.
The company, which collects green bin
material, has seen an increase in the use
of plastic bags for compost and will now
be leaving compost behind, tagged for
frustrated homeowners to deal with.
To avoid the problem, Region officials
suggest looking for specific biodegrad-
able compost bags that break down with-
in 21 days of being used. “They’re made
of corn starch,” said Steve Jedinak, a
waste technician with the Region of Dur-
ham.
The brands that can be used in your
green bin include the following: Al-Pack
compost bags, Bag-To-Nature, Bio-Life
compost bags, Biosak compost bags,
Compost-A-Bag, ECOSAFE compost
bags, GLAD compost bags, Great Value
compost bags and Tuff Guy compost
bags.
With 10 brands to choose from, it
shouldn’t be difficult to find one on the
shelf of your neighbourhood supermar-
ket or superstore. A symbol with the word
‘compostable’ should be clearly indicat-
ed on the box you choose to use for your
green bin liner. You can find out further
information and get more clarification by
calling 905-579-5264 or toll free at 1-800-
667-5671 or by e-mail at waste@durham.
ca. You can also get further information
by checking out the Region of Durham
waste website at www.durhamregion-
waste.ca.
If you get stuck and are short a proper
bag, you can always wrap up your com-
post in newspaper, which will be collect-
ed.
It’s more important than ever that we
all do our part to make sure that we com-
post and recycle as much material as
we possibly can. But it doesn’t do much
good if the material we compost is not
placed in the proper bag. So do your part
and use the proper bags so that you’re
not left frustrated, and so the environ-
ment comes out ahead.

Unacceptable ones
could be left at curb
BY KEITH GILLIGAN
kgilligan@durhamregion.com
DURHAM -- Only 100 per cent certified
compostable liner bags should be used in
the green bin or the material could be left
at the curb.
Some bags are advertised as being bio-
degradable or oxobiodegradable and may
indicate they are acceptable for use in
municipal programs. However, only liner
bags with a certified compostable logo will
be collected in Durham Region.
“What’s sparking this is our contractor,
Miller Waste, has seen an increase in plastic
bags,” said Steve Jedinak, a waste manage-
ment technician with the Region.
The unacceptable bags have a chemical
added to them to help break them down,
but often, the bags haven’t fully decom-
posed.
The compost goes through a three-week
cycle and “the proper bags break down in
21 days. They’re made of corn starch,” Mr.
Jedinak stated. The plastic bags aren’t 100
per cent compostable and don’t have the
appropriate logo, he added.
The bags can be used in York Region and
Toronto, he said.
If people don’t have the proper bags or
can’t afford them, they can wrap compost
in newspaper, Mr. Jedinak said.
Residents should only use proper liner
bags, paper food waste bags or food waste
wrapped in newspaper. Compostable bags
completely break down and become part of
the finished compost. “Some retailers are
carrying the bags that say they are accept-
able. They’re not,” Mr. Jedinak stated.
“If the driver notices, the bin will be tagged
and left behind,” he said.
The issue is that the improper bags
increase the processing costs, as the mate-
rial has to be sorted and the plastic bags
removed, Mr. Jedinak noted.
If a plastic bag does get into the process,
“it contaminates the finished product,” Mr.
Jedinak stated, adding there would be plas-
tic bits leftover in the product.
“The underlining theme of a composting
program is to only include items that can
break down,” Mr. Jedinak stated.
A list of acceptable liner bags is available
at www.durhamregionwaste.ca. The list is
also available by e-mail at waste@durham.
ca, or by calling 905-579-5264 (toll-free at 1-

Dear Valued Customer:
I would like to inform you of a recent change that has been made
in the Xerox coverage for your geographical area. Effective July 1,
2009 Break-Away Business Systems Ltd. is no longer an authorized

Oshawa geography. Although this transition should be transparent
to you; the customer, I would like to ensure any questions get
addressed proactively.
Better Business Equipment Inc. which is owned and operated
by Iain Adamson, is now the only Authorized Xerox Agency for
Pickering, Ajax, Whitby and Oshawa and is still the Authorized
Agency in Northumberland, Peterborough and the Kawarthas. Iain
and his team are not new to Xerox, or to the Durham Region, and
bring a wealth of knowledge and experience in assisting customers
to become more productive and save money.
Your Xerox service will continue to be provided through our
national infrastructure and local service representatives. Please
contact Iain or one of his sales representatives should you have any
immediate needs where he can help (1.866.629.1313 in the of ce

Police still
won’t release
woman’s name
BY JENNIFER STONE
jstone@durhamregion.com
WHITBY -- A 34-year-old Dur-
ham District School Board
teacher and Bowmanville resi-
dent has pleaded guilty to sex
crime charges involving a 14-
year-old boy.
But, police continue to refuse
to identify the woman, say-
ing releasing her name would
identify her victim, even
though he’s not a student at
the Whitby elementary school
where she taught during the
last school year.
She has been suspended
with pay by the Durham board
since her arrest.
The woman pleaded guilty
to sexual interference and
assault, said Detective Consta-
ble Jenn Bickle-Hearn, of Dur-
ham police.
Charges were laid in Feb-
ruary, after Durham Region-
al Police officers on patrol in
rural Clarington checked a
parked vehicle and found a
woman they say was engaged
in a sexual act with a boy
inside the car.
The woman is said to have
coached the boy in an ath-
letics program not associat-
ed with the Durham District
School Board.
The woman’s fate as a teach-
er remains up in the air. The
school board’s superinten-
dent of employee relations,
Lou Vavougios, and education
director Martyn Beckett were
both unavailable for com-
ment.
The woman is to appear in
court again this month.

autism spectrum disorders. The program,
which has been running since 2004, has
recently been granted charitable status by
the Canada Revenue Agency. It also plans
to expand to St. Mark’s United Church in
Whitby starting on a bi-weekly basis by
the end of September.
“It’s sort of like a giant, organized play
date,” said Heather Johnson, Footprints’
marketing and administration consul-
tant.
The program usually cares for about five
children and volunteers work one-on-
one with them. There’s also time for arts,
crafts, dress-up, reading and playing. The
organization has decided not to focus on
therapy.
“Because they’re children first, not
autistic first,” Ms. Johnson said.
She explained the program offers a
chance for parents of autistic children to
do regular activities that may be a chal-
lenge on a regular basis. Ms. Bragg finds
sometimes she dedicates so much time to
Rebecca, that her other girls may feel left
out, and Footprints, aside from providing
fun and productivity for Rebecca, allows
for more time with the other children,
who range from two to 12.
“The families that use our services find
that it’s something they just can’t live
without,” Ms. Johnson said.
And because it’s a volunteer-driven
charity, the cost is rather low, she said.
She added it costs $5 an hour.
“Footprints has been very good for us
because there’s very little you can put
your children into that doesn’t cost a lot
of money,” Ms. Bragg said, adding she’s
grateful for the one-on-one feature,
which is generally costly.
Ms. Bragg receives some funding from
the government for Rebecca’s develop-
ment and some programs she uses, but
it isn’t enough and despite the funding,
costs still add up. Camps, for example,
cost about $500 minimum per week for
Rebecca, but only $160 to $180 for her
other children. She also has trouble find-
ing programs that accept children who
are not toilet-trained, which Rebecca is
not.
“It is a different experience, but I want
to see these children be treated and have
the same opportunities as other chil-
dren,” she said.
Ms. Bragg pointed out Rebecca also
learns social skills through Footprints.
The very outgoing girl doesn’t under-
stand road safety and also has a tendency
to lunge for other people’s food if she sees
something appetizing at a restaurant, for
example.
“It’s not that problematic because she’s
a young, sweet, beautiful-looking child,”
she said.
But, with help through much-needed
programs like Footprints and others she
hopes will spring up, Ms. Bragg hopes
Rebecca will communicate better and
have more opportunities in the future.

We all know that good food, exercise and sleep are essential to healthy life. Unfortunately, a good night’s sleep is
overlooked by many people. Sleep deprivation can cause accidents, make people abnormally irritated and sharp,
reduce productivity and cause time away from work.
Even with good food and exercise, your body still only rebuilds and rejuvenates in your deepest stages of sleep, which
many people have trouble getting. Sleep can help you heal, as well as repair mental, physical and organ stress.
If you are not getting enough R.E.M. sleep or late stage sleep it’s often because of an old mattress. Over the years, a
mattress’ springs can lose tension. Springs that have lost tension can create pressure points and lack of proper support so
you toss and turn rather than get enough deep stage sleep.
Allergies and breathing problems can be a big problem for people at night also. We all lose lots of body fl uids and
layers of dead skin each night which fi ll your mattress and supply a cozy home for mites with lots of food for them and
help cause allergies for many of us.
If you are disturbed by your partner getting in and out of bed, a high coil count mattress or Nasa foam or Latex
mattress with less interruption as they get in and out of bed will help.
If you wake all through the night because you are too hot, a larger mattress with more individual space can help. Also,
many mattresses that have more fl exible or open cell products in them like wool, bamboo, cotton, Nasa foam or latex will
help control body temperatures.
Remember for the amount you use a mattress, most are very inexpensive. If you spend $1000 on a mattress set over
10 years, it’s only $100 a year. Most of us spend a few dollars a day for coff ee to stay awake. Why not spend that money
on fresh springs, a mite free mattress, and get a better night’s sleep?
The Sleep Specialists at MasterBedroom have been helping Durham residents fi nd the right sleep surface since 1982.
They have Tempur-Pedic, Serta, Thera-Pedic, Nasa Foam, Latex and waterbed mattress sets and more.
Let their experienced staff help you fi nd the right mattress the fi rst time. They do not sell used, repackaged mattresses.
This is very important with the problems and epidemics of today like bed bugs, H1N1 Flu, Bird Flu, SARS, etc.
MasterBedroom is also excited to announce that they are now carrying Amisco stools. The custom stools are available
in 12 choices of fi nishes to go with any wood or to match your hardware or appliances, and come with a 10 year warranty.

AJAX -- Pianist Nick Nolan used a concert to rasie money for charity. Nick has been studying piano for almost nine years.
Ajax teen’s talent is key to charitable deed
Money collected
is music to his ears
BY IZABELA JAROSZYNSKI
newsroom@durhamregion.com
AJAX -- When Nick Nolan set out
to perform a solo recital in front of
a large audience at St. Andrew’s
Presbyterian Church in Ajax, he
wasn’t thinking only about the
music.
To the delight of those in atten-
dance, he performed Bach,
Brahms, Beethoven, Debussy,
Kabalevsky and even a little Cho-
pin. And at the end he received a
standing ovation and played two
encores.
But for the Ajax teen, even more
gratifying than the praise for his
performance was the $850 his
concert raised for the Mustard
Seed Mission, money that will be
used to develop schools for chil-
dren in Indonesia. Mustard Seed
supports schools in Indonesia that
combine music and drama with a
full academic curriculum and the
cause is in line with Mr. Nolan’s
belief in the power of music.
“Music encourages kids to be
at school, in the same way that
sports do,” he said. “It helps them
interact with friends, to be more
social and motivates them to learn
something new.”
When he heard about the Mus-
tard Seed schools through the pas-
tor’s wife at his church, Mr. Nolan
decided it was a cause he needed
to support. With the help of his
parents and the church commu-
nity, he set up a solo recital.
Mr. Nolan began his own musi-
cal education at the age of nine
and says it transformed his life.
His piano teacher from day one
has been Glenda Varty and he says
she continues to be a big support-
er of his music.
“She really helped me devel-
op my skills through practice,” he
says.
It was these hours of practice -
- the drive to keep working at it
week after week despite other dis-
tractions -- that taught Mr. Nolan
his strong work ethic.
He first realized that music was
his passion when he stopped
thinking of practice as practice and
started to look forward to learning
new techniques and increasing
his skill.
“You have to be able to play for
the love of an instrument,” he
said.
It is a lesson he tries to instill in
younger kids who are just starting
out in their lessons.
A recent graduate from J. Clarke
Richardson Secondary School
in Ajax -- where he played sax in
the jazz and concert bands and
piano accompaniment for some
of the choirs -- Mr. Nolan’s pas-
sion is taking him to the University
of Toronto’s music and education
program where he plans to get a
dual degree.
While he eventually hopes to
become a high school music
teacher and encourage students
to learn through music, for now he
is just looking forward to attend-
ing a program with students who
are just as passionate about music
as he is.
“It will be a lot of people who
share that interest and I’m really
excited to be part of that.”

Art in the Park
runs Aug. 15 and 16
BY REKA SZEKELY
rszekely@durhamregion.com
AJAX-PICKERING -- Local artists are pack-
ing up and heading to Uxbridge to partici-
pate in the Lions Club’s “Art in the Park” this
weekend.
Among them is Ajax’s Kirsty Naray, who
will be taking a colourful array of her glass
art with her. Included are jewelry, beads, tiny
figurines and more. Ms. Naray has participat-
ed in the Uxbridge festival for about six years
now.
“I just enjoy meeting people and sharing
what I make,” she said.
Ms. Naray expects Ajax and Pickering resi-
dents to head up to the event and says they’ll
get an opportunity to check out the works of
a wide variety of artists.
“Durham has some very talented artists in
every medium and it needs to be showcased
more than it is,” said Ms. Naray.
At the event, there will be a little bit of
everything including paintings, wood, pot-
tery, jewelry and more, and Ms. Naray said
it’s a great opportunity for people to grab gifts
or one-of-a-kind accents for their homes.
Robert Hinves of Pickering has also partic-
ipated in the event for at least six years. His
work includes watercolour paintings over
pen and ink depicting peaceful rural scenes
and more abstract work.
“I use real leaves and lay them into a pat-
tern and repaint them with my own colours
in acrylic,” he said.
Mr. Hinves said he’s also looking forward to
chatting with the public at the event.
“Quite a lot of people come into the booth
and I get to talk to them for a fair bit,” he said.
Larry Peet, president of the Lions Club, said
the event has proven popular with artists and
it fills up every year.
“We’ve had to say no to a fair amount of
artists,” he said. “We get an awful, awful lot of
praise from artists who come.”
The Lions Art in the Park runs Aug. 15 and
16 from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. at Elgin Park in
Uxbridge.

LACROSSE
Serville searches for Founders
Green Gaels’ top scorer
leads Jr. B lacrosse team
into Founders Cup
BY BRAD KELLY
bkelly@durhamregion.com
PICKERING -- Turns out that the premoni-
tion Ryan Serville had came true.
Prior to the start of the lacrosse season,
the Pickering resident had a feeling that a
return to the Clarington Green Gaels Jr. B
club could result in an Ontario champion-
ship, and ultimately, a trip to Edmonton for
the Founders Cup and a shot at national
supremacy. With a 13-7 victory over Elora
on Sunday, the Green Gaels secured the
provincial Jr. B title in a three game sweep,
and on Monday, they begin their quest for a
Canadian championship.
“It’s always a great feeling when you win
the Ontario championship,” says Serville. “It
was even a better feeling because last year
we lost to Halton Hills, so this one was more
of a redemption. It was a really good feeling
because we worked hard all year and it paid
off.”
Last season, coming off a 17-3 regular sea-
son, the Green Gaels were bounced from the
playoffs in the East Conference semifinals,
dropping a five-game series to Halton Hills.
This season, after posting a 19-1 record, the
Green Gaels were down two games to one to
Halton Hills in the East Conference finals,
but rallied to win the final two games, and
advance to the league finals against the West
Conference champions from Elora.
Serville, an 18-year-old graduate of St.
Mary Catholic Secondary School, was just
as stellar in the playoffs as he was during
the regular season. Coming off a 2008 cam-
paign in which he registered 85 points and
was named Rookie of the Year, he led the
league in scoring with 41-56-97 totals in 19
games. In 13 playoff games, he posted 23-
41-64 numbers.
“There really are no individuals,” he says of
the reason behind the success of the team,
crediting coaches Jason Crosbie and Paul
Stewart with implementing a potent offen-
sive system. “Our team really is unselfish. It
really worked out for all of us. Most of our
offence had great years and you can tell by
the stats.”
Serville and his teammates enter the
Founders Cup as the overwhelming favou-
rites. Since the Founders Cup became
emblematic of the top Jr. B lacrosse team
in the country in 1972, teams representing
Ontario have won the title 35 times, with
victories by a couple of Alberta teams, the
1999 Edmonton Miners and 1980 Enoch
Tomahawks preventing a clean sweep.
The Green Gaels open against Edmonton,
with round robin games continuing through
the rest of the week. Semifinals go Friday,
with the bronze and gold medal games on
Saturday.
When he returns, there will be little time
for Serville to rest. No sooner will he land
back at home and he will be off to Florida,
beginning a four-year field lacrosse scholar-
ship at Jacksonville University. It will be the
first time the Division I school has fielded a
lacrosse program and it was one of the fea-
tures that enticed Serville to go.
“There aren’t many people who can say
they played for a first-year team,” says Ser-
ville, who played field with the Oshawa Blue
Knights and won the U19 Brogden Cup this
summer with Team Ontario.
“Hopefully in the next four years we can
become very competitive. It’s going to be a
good feeling knowing you’re on a team that
started it up.
“I’ll be able to say I was on the very first
Jacksonville University team.”

PICKERING -- Ryan Serville of the Clarington Green Gaels held the ball while looking for
an option during Game 3 the Ontario Lacrosse Association Jr. B final series against Elora.
Serville helped his team to a three game sweep in the series, and will accompany his team
to the Founders Cup tournament in Edmonton to determine a national champion. When
he returns, it’s off to Jacksonville University for a four year field lacrosse scholarship.
Gallant hits pair
of triples in win
for Canada over
Dominican Republic
CZECH REPUBLIC -- Ajax’s Steph-
anie Gallant had a huge hand, or rather
bat, in Canada’s win over the Domini-
can Republic at the U16 Easton Foun-
dation Youth World Cup being held in
Prague, Czech Republic.
The 16-year-old catcher hit a pair
of triples in a 4-0 victory, leading off the
top of the second with a three-bagger
and later scoring. Her second triple
of the game in the top of the seventh
scored the fourth run for Canada. Later
in the day on Wednesday, Canada lost
1-0 to Japan in nine innings to fall to
3-1. They wrapped up the round robin
against Russia on Thursday (after our
deadline).
Playoff rounds are Friday and Sat-
urday, with the gold and bronze medal
games on Sunday.

QUEBEC -- Madeline Iozzi
and Sarah Maglahaes, two
girls from Ajax who made
the U14 Girls Provincial
Soccer team that played
in Quebec at the Canadian
National All-Star Cham-
pionships, have returned
home.
The girls played a total
of five games in Quebec,
defeating New Brunswick
6-0, British Columbia 3-
0, Manitoba 10-1, Prince
Edward Island 2-0 and in
the final game they defeat-
ed the host province of
Quebec by a 4-0 score.
In all, the girls’ team
rolled over the competi-
tion scoring 25 goals while
surrendering only one.
Both Iozzi and Magla-
haes played an integral
part of the team’s per-
formance as Iozzi played
left fullback -- a posi-
tion she only plays on the
provincial team -- while
Maglahaes played central
defence.
Iozzi was awarded game
MVP honours in the final
game versus Quebec from
her coach Ruben Flores as
she shut down the Quebec
captain and dangerous
striker.
This age group is an
important group as Cana-
dian officials and coach-
ing staff were looking at all
players for the U17 FIFA
2012 World Cup.
Both girls currently play
for Wexford Wildcats in
the Ontario Youth Soccer
League where they have
advanced to the Ontario
Cup quarterfinals. Should
they advance with Wex-
ford and win the Ontario
championship, they will
advance to the Canadian
Club Championships in
Nova Scotia, to be played
in October.
Ajax-Pickering
beats Clarington
DURHAM -- The Ajax
Pickering Dolphins defeat-
ed the Clarington Knights
14-12 in a nail biter of a
game at Kinsmen Field dur-
ing a SCOFL Junior Varsity
AA semifinal game.
The battle of the two Dur-
ham rivals came down to
Drew Rider kicking the
game winning 35-yard field
goal with less than 10 sec-
onds left on the game clock.
It was a tough, hard fought
battle to the end. This
was evident as there were
numerous injuries during
the game including both
Dolphins quarterbacks
leaving the game during the
first half. Running back Brad
MacMillan did a great job
filling in at the quarterback
position and keeping the
Phins in the game.
The Dolphins are now off
to Ivor Wynne Stadium, in
Hamilton, at 2 p.m. this Sat-
urday to face the Niagara
Storm for the SCOFL Junior
Varsity AA Championship.

Ontario teams
on top of lacrosse
hill in Canada
WHITBY -- The numbers tell quite the tale.
Team Ontario entries at the National
Lacrosse Championships in Whitby put
forth a simply dominating effort, culmi-
nating in a trio of gold medals last week-
end at Iroquois Park, capping off another
successful Ontario Lacrosse Festival.
Ontario’s Bantam boys and girls, and the
boys’ Peewee outfits defended their home
province against the rest of the country,
each taking home gold following champi-
onship game wins over British Columbia.
On the Bantam ledger, the boys there
were just as dominating, throttling each of
their opponents all the way through to the
final, where they continued their winning
ways with an 11-7 victory against B.C.
In compiling a perfect 8-0 mark, Ontar-
io outscored their opponents by a 117-15
count, and were led offensively by Nicho-
las Ritchie, who scored a tournament-high
30 points.
The top scorer from Durham Region was
Pickering’s Brandon Robinson, who fin-
ished fifth in that department on the club
with seven goals and 20 points in the eight
games.
Connor Laird (6-5-11), Nicholas Karam
(6-1-7), Rylee McKinnon (2-2-4) and
Michael Panowyk (2-2-4), all of Whitby,
also chipped in offensively for Ontario
who defeated Saskatchewan 25-0 to kick
the tournament off before running over
Quebec 16-0, New Brunswick 20-2, Iro-
quois 7-1, Nova Scotia 18-1, B.C. 9-3 and
Alberta 12-1 in earning their place in the
final.
In girls action, they needed the benefit
of overtime, but Ontario capped their own
run of perfection by posting a 4-3 victory
against B.C. to clinch the gold.
Their division was scaled down with only
four teams competing, however, Ontario
still managed seven games played, all wins
as they defeated Alberta 5-0 and 10-1, New
Brunswick 6-1 and 9-0 and B.C. twice even
before meeting in the final. Those scores
were 5-4 and 4-3.
Five Whitby girls suited up for their prov-
ince, with each contributing to the offence,
led by Kendra Parenteau (4-4-8). Kennedy
Milburn (3-2-5), Shalyn Pavlisko (3-2-5),
Shannon Sisk (0-2-2) and Amanda Kerno-
han (1-0-1) also found the scoresheet.
