TOUR DE GREENBELT Durham a ‘mecca’ for cyclists: Steve Parish from page 1 biking enthusiasts or novices can choose their preferred length to cycle and take a marshalled ride through an outlined route. In Durham, three paths have been laid out by organizers at 20 kilo- metres, 43 kilometres or 117 kilometres. The Durham section takes place on Sept. 27. The tour, billed as “a fresh-air festival on wheels” encourages peo- ple to get out and explore the land the Province has set aside as green space. The provincial govern- ment has done a tremen- dous job preserving the space, Ajax Mayor Steve Parish said. The mayor recently completed a long bike ride for United Way and said he was struck by many things while he was riding, including what a great resource all the local green space is. “Durham is an absolute mecca for cyclists,” Mayor Parish said. This is the second time the event has run and the first year the tour has come to Durham. Last year, organizers had prepared for 650 par- ticipants and had over 1,100 enthusiasts come out, tour manager Peter Hart said. The balance of people had to be turned away because organizers didn’t have the capacity to have that many extra participants. This year they decided to expand. “There is obviously a huge demand for cycling,” he said. The Durham ride takes participants past farms, tree-lined streets, ponds, lakes and creeks, he said. All three versions of the Durham ride start and end at Greenwood Con- servation area in Ajax. Depending on the route cyclists chose, they will get a chance to check out the Rouge River Val- ley, the historic hamlet of Whitevale and several kilometres of parks and farmland. Participation is $40 per person, but kids under 14 are free with a registered adult (two kids per adult). The event is revenue-neu- tral and the fee includes a rider kit, snacks, bever- ages, ride support, bike tune-up and a lunch made of local food. All riders must wear helmets.

WALTER PASSARELLA PHOTOS Boardwalk building in Altona Forest Province begins education campaign to promote flu shots BY CHRIS HALL chall@durhamregion.com DURHAM -- Advice on how to prevent the flu this winter season should be arriving at every home in Durham Region soon, courtesy of the Province. In an effort to provide Ontar- ians with up-to-date information on the flu, in particular the H1N1 virus, better known as swine flu, and to encourage residents to get vaccinated, the Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care is embarking on an ambitious public education campaign. According to David Jensen, a ministry spokesman, the Province began mailing out 5 million bro- chures via Canada Post to house- holds across Ontario on Monday. Included in the information pam- phlet are a variety of tips residents can review to avoid the common seasonal flu and H1N1 flu, as well as contact numbers for pandemic preparedness and health care. The cost for the program is about $1.5 million, said Mr. Jensen. “There are a lot of preventative messages in (the brochure), such as washing your hands, coughing into your sleeve and, if you’re sick, stay home,” said Mr. Jensen. And, while the Province encour- ages residents each year to get their flu shot, the arrival of the H1N1 virus this year has spurred Ontario to take extra steps, such as sending out a brochure, he added. “It’s a new strain of flu and will make for a very difficult type of sea- son,” he said. The Province is recommending that residents get vaccinated with both the seasonal flu and H1N1 flu shot, said Mr. Jensen. The seasonal flu shot is clinical- ly proven to prevent illness, while clinical trials underway on the H1N1 shot have “shown it to be effective,” he said. It takes about one week after receiving the shot for protection to begin, he added. The flu season in Ontario typi- cally starts in October and ends in April. A seasonal flu vaccination will not protect people against the H1N1 flu virus, warns the Prov- ince. For those nonplussed by the potential for becoming sick with the flu, Mr. Jensen urges residents to think of others if they’re not con- cerned for their own health. “There are people out there who think, ‘so what if I get sick’,” said Mr. Jensen. “But the flu is contagious and there is the possibility of pass- ing it along to an older person or someone who is pregnant and they may develop complications. “We’re asking people to think of others. “It’s hitting the young, healthy population and that’s quite dif- ferent than other strains,” said Mr. Jensen. newsdurhamregion.comNews Advertiser • September 17, 20095 AP (905) 433-9011 FALL/WINTER WOODWORKING COURSES BUILD AN ENTERTAINMENT UNIT/ARMOIRE www.thecarpenterssquare.com STARTS: MON.

All content copyright Editorial Opinions POLITICS No need for another election now To the editor: Re: Skip the federal election and try governing for a change, editiorial, Sept. 3. Absolutely! The decision by the Liberal Party to push for another election possibly a few weeks from now is ridiculous. Polls indicate an overwhelming majority of Canadians have no interest in an election and the results would be virtually the same. Take the $300 million it costs taxpayers to run an election and give it to those who need it like students, the elderly and the poor. Enough of this constant call for elections already! Elected politicians, be thankful for the well- paid jobs you already have. James Hodgins Pickering Limit MPs to two terms To the editor: Skip the federal election, try governing for a change, editorial, Sept. 3. Canada will never have a majority gov- ernment. We have five federal parties, every election splits the vote. We have the Conservatives now in power doing their best after the Liberals were in power for many years and did nothing. The Green Party is, as usual out to lunch. The Bloc wants out of Canada with as much money as they can stuff in their pockets and the NDP has a leader who will do anything to get a bigger office. I propose a two-term election limit for poli- ticians. When they exceed two elections, they must step down. This proposal will make them work harder at consensus building. If they continue to call elections, they are out on their duff after the second election; they cannot run for a third term. Maybe they will work harder for Canadi- ans because every third election we will have a fresh bunch of MPs who better get to work for Canadians. Rick Foster Whitby ANIMALS Lack of kindness for cat’s owner upsetting To the editor: Today, sometime before 9 a.m., my daugh- ter’s cat Ricky was struck and hit by a car on our street, two doors down from us. It appears she was struck at our driveway and dragged down two doors. Her fur was embedded or smeared in the street. She managed to drag herself off the road and meow at our neigh- bour’s door. Our kind neighbour came down to get us and we took her home, wrapped in her blanket. She is now wrapped in the blan- ket with her favourite toy until we can decide what we will do with her remains. Ricky was properly tagged, she was wearing her collar and she belonged to someone. She was not some stray. My problem is that the driver did not stop. Had the driver done so, she might have noticed our cat’s tag and come up the street to our house to explain what hap- pened. But the driver didn’t and our wee cat died battered and broken in our neighbour’s driveway. You can tell a lot about people by the way they treat animals. Jo-Anne Healy Trepanier Pickering FREE SPEECH Abortion photos compared to smoking photos To the editor: I don’t know what all the fuss is about, since pro-choice supporters don’t believe that a fetus is a living human being but a collection of cells. What’s wrong with parading around with a picture of a group of dead cells? It’s no worse than looking at pictures of decayed teeth or diseased lungs on the front of a ciga- rette package. It’s strange how we don’t hear the same complaints from smokers about these very distasteful photos. Dave Saunders Clarington newsdurhamregion.comNews Advertiser • September 17, 20096 P Leash-free park good news for Pickering dog owners Site in north end of City a good location to run free It looks like at last Fido and Rover, along with their owners, will have a place to call their own and run free, without the need for a leash. On Monday night, Pickering council- lors are expected to approve the location for an off-leash dog park on lands owned by the Toronto and Region Conservation Authority. Barring any last-minute glitches, the 41 hectares west of Valley Farm Road and south of the Third Concession will finally be home to the park, after a number of false starts. A group of dog enthusiasts has been working with City staff for years to try to find the right location. In the past, reasons such as excessive dog barking and concerns about possible drug dealing after hours have been given by neighbours for reasons why the park should not be built in their area. But none of those reasons would be a concern with the suggested area because it is far enough away from any homes to be a problem. The area has been used in previous years by the City for summer programs so adding a leash-free dog park isn’t a big stretch as a good use. The residents and City staff should be applauded for their tenacity in finding just the right spot. They never gave up, even after pro- posed site after proposed site was turned down. “The goal is to make this park a suc- cess, not an area of concern,” said Nicole Scarlett of the Dog Park working group. The City just needs to look east, at the two dog parks in Ajax, to see how dog owners are drawn to the area. The parks are well-used and offer a ser- vice not too many other municipalities provide. Once the park is up and in use, Pickering should make sure it promotes the area to all residents. And those dog owners who take advan- tage of the new facility should make sure they follow proper rules so there won’t be any reasons to close the park. Dogs shouldn’t have aggression issues, all dogs should be licensed and above all, make sure you take a bag to pick up any mess your four-legged companion may leave behind after a run. 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 WE THINK... email responses to newsroom@durhamregion.com newsdurhamregion.comNews Advertiser • September 17, 20097 AP NISSAN VERSA HATCH PRICEMATCH GUARANTEE JOB LOSS PROTECTION ON EVERY VEHICLE PURCHASED NISSAN The Bond between Motion and You.

Monday night the executive committee approved a new loca- tion for an off-leash dog park after the Dog Park Working Group and the City have sug- gested many possible locations over the past three years. Chief Administrative Officer Tom Quinn told the News Adver- tiser in July he’d make sure to find a suitable location where every- one would be happy after many locations were rejected due to residents’ concerns. So finally, Grand Valley Park, lands owned by the Toronto and Region Con- servation Authority (TRCA) west of Valley Farm Road and south of Third Concession Road, was approved as the location for a dog park by the committee. “I think it’s an important fea- ture,” said Ward 1 Regional Councillor Bonnie Littley. “And I think it adds to a community, really.” Ward 2 Regional Councillor Bill McLean agreed, saying potential residents look for these types of amenities when moving to a new area, and added the central loca- tion is ideal. The location is 41 hectares and was used by the City for summer programs years ago. In recent years, the land has been used only for public access to the Seaton Hiking Trail and for dog- walking purposes. The TRCA has already approved the use of the land for the park, and it will go ahead as long as staff approves a site plan the City is to work on with the TRCA. The site will contain a fenced-in park and a parking lot. Remain- ing areas will be reviewed for possible future uses including new public trail loops and con- nections. Nicole Scarlett of the Dog Park working group said she and the group would be glad to assist in that project. “Most people need to get the exercise along with their pet,” she said at the meeting. Some councillors had criticized suggested locations because the park was only intended as a pilot project. But the general consen- sus at the meeting was this loca- tion could become a permanent fixture in Pickering. Ms. Scarlett thanked staff for its hard work and said while there have been some frustrat- ing times over the past few years, the group’s glad a location has been chosen that will suit every- one. “The goal is to make this park a success, not an area of concern,” she said.

The meeting at the Petticoat Creek Community Centre, meant to inform the public on York and Dur- ham’s water and wastewater master plans, turned its focus to a situation that’s upset many north Pickering residents. The southeast collector trunk sewer (Big Pipe) is currently under- going plans for an expansion to accommodate York Region’s and Durham Region’s growing popu- lations. The Big Pipe takes sew- age from York Region to the Duffin Creek Water Pollution Control Plant in Pickering. The plant also treats about 20 per cent of Durham’s sew- age. Part of the expansion is the con- struction of an odour control facil- ity, which was originally planned to go just south of the Cherrywood West subdivision in north Pickering. But after activist group Stop the Stink strongly opposed it, Durham council also opposed the location. It was later moved just into the York boundary, on the west side of the York-Durham line, between the Taunton-Steeles connection and the 4th Concession Road. Residents don’t understand why Pickering has to treat sewage from York. “The odour control facility is a nightmare,” said resident Rhonda Mendes. “It’s like David and Goli- ath.” Officials at the meeting empha- sized that the pipe route was designed by the Province in the 1970s. Wayne Green, the project man- ager from York, said the Region has sent notifications, left flyers at homes in some cases, put notifica- tions in the newspaper and feels York has followed a “complete and comprehensive” consultation pro- cess. He added the odour control facility was moved to a midpoint between urban areas in both Pickering and Markham. Marilyn Metcalfe has lived in her home since 1981. The pipe is now planned to run through her neigh- bourhood, and she said she has received notice that part of her property will be expropriated. She attended the meeting for more information. “It seems like they just want to push it through,” she said. Last week, she spoke to the Dur- ham works committee about her concerns, saying there were still many unanswered questions and felt she was being pressured to sign an agreement with York for expro- priation, even when she disagreed with the appraised value of her property. “On reflection, I feel I have been hit by a sugarcoated steamroller that isn’t quite finished with me yet,” she said. She said she didn’t find out until April 2008 that the pipe would go under her property, even after she had been to prior public meetings. Mr. Green said the reason resi- dents weren’t informed until 2008 about the possible expropriations is because the path wasn’t defined until then. Expropriations are cur- rently being debated, he said, and York wants to have in place an expropriation opportunity if it has to follow that course. “The expropriation is only a mechanism to acquire property but it’s certainly not the intended route to follow,” he said. He added fair market value is always paid and York has conduct- ed full appraisals. Stop the Stink plans to attend the Pickering council meeting on Mon- day, Sept. 21 to hear plans by Ward 1 Regional Councillor Bonnie Lit- tley and Ward 3 Regional Council- lor Rick Johnson to bring forward a motion asking the MOE for a “time out” on the project.

REPATRIATION Navy salutes fallen soldier from Durham bridge SABRINA BYRNES / METROLAND OSHAWA -- Navy personnel from HMCS Ville de Quebec, on a visit to Oshawa, saluted as the motor- cade carrying the body of the latest soldier killed in Afghanistan, Private Patrick Lormand from the 2nd Battalion, Royal 22nd Regiment based in Valcartier Quebec, passed along the Highway of Heroes Sept. 16. BY CRYSTAL CRIMI ccrimi@durhamregion.com OSHAWA -- “Salute!” To the call, a row of 38 navy per- sonnel raised their hands in the gesture of respect Wednesday to the latest Canadian soldier killed in Afghanistan. The crew of black suited, white capped naval members made a special visit to the Highway of Heroes in Oshawa to participate in a bridge-top repatriation ceremony for Private Patrick Lormand. The 21-year-old private was killed Sept. 13 in a roadside explosion in the Panjwai district southwest of Kandahar City. He was a member of the 2nd Bat- talion, Royal 22nd Regiment based in Valcartier, Quebec. “I’ve seen it on the news, I’ve never seen it in person though,” said Steve Vaillancourt, an able seaman, of the ceremony. Mr. Vaillancourt, along with the other navy personnel in attendance, were in Oshawa this week as part of a six-week tour aboard the HMCS Ville De Quebec. The ship’s visit is intended to raise awareness about the navy and its opportunities. “I was the one that pointed out hey guys, we’re right beside the Highway of Heroes,” said Mr. Vail- lancourt, as the sound of cars and trucks sped by underneath the Sim- coe Street bridge. The 21-year-old from Montreal found out from a cabbie that the ceremony was coming through the region. “We wanted to come pay our respects,” Mr. Vaillancourt said. Being up there with everyone else, waiting for the hearse and soldier’s family to pass by was an experience of sadness and pride for him. “There’s a lot of emotion that floods through you,” he said. Army Corporal Kristine Brassard shared similar feelings as she stood on the bridge for the first time, wait- ing for the soldier’s hearse to pass. “It’s an honour to be here, but it’s sad,” said the Quebec native, who’s serving onboard the ship. At 25 years old, she has been in the army for four years. Her hus- band is a leading seaman and her parents are both ex-military. “I’ve never lost anybody in my family due to that, but it hits home when you have someone other than yourself, that you realize it could be in my family,” she said.

At 6:30 p.m. on Friday, Sept. 18, Darius Parsons will drum outside of Big M Burg- er (711 Krosno Blvd., off Liv- erpool Road South), also the night of its Car Cruise Night, to continue collecting dona- tions for the Canadian Can- cer Society. “My grandma and my grandad both died from cancer and I don’t want any more people to die from cancer,” the eight-year-old said. He’s been doing his “Drumming for a Cure” campaign throughout the summer at various Pickering sites, playing to CDs and asking people to donate what they can. So far he’s raised exactly $2,527.78. “If everybody in Pickering donated just $1, together we would raise over $90,000,” he said. Darius is also challenging other young drummers to do the same thing and see if they can raise even more than him.

Deborah Lay, Durham Region Health Department Durham Region nutritionist provides tips for making tasty school lunches BY CRYSTAL CRIMI ccrimi@durhamregion.com DURHAM -- By incorporating leftovers, easy-to-eat foods and variety, packing a school lunch full of nutrition doesn’t have to be complicated. Deborah Lay, a public health nutritionist at the Durham Region Health Department, has some tips for preparing a school lunch with enough nutrients to get kids through the day. “The best thing I can suggest is to choose from three of the four food groups,” Ms. Lay said. They include: fruits and vegetables; grains; milk products or substitutes; and protein. But it’s important to make sure selections are tasty, she said. You can pack a lunch full of healthiness, but if kids don’t like it, it’ll end up in the trash. To help prevent that, get kids involved in making and planning their lunch, she said. She encourages planning an efficient assembly line with a designated drawer for preparation items and, if possible, an area in the fridge just for lunch items. “If it’s possible, kids love fruit and vegeta- ble cut-ups,” Ms. Lay said. “Appeal is every- thing.” Pack tomatoes separately so they don’t make a sandwich soggy and keep seals tight on drinking cups so they don’t leak. Adding colour and variety can help make a lunch more appealing, too, she added. In sandwiches, use different multi-grain, whole grain, or enriched-with-fibre breads, such as pita, English muffins, and buns. Change the filling using items such as bean spreads, hummus, meat or grated cheese with grilled vegetables and try different spreads including teriyaki sauce, salsa, salad dressing or mayo with dijon, Ms. Lay said. Try sending hot meals, too, sometimes, such as soups and stews, she said. “Always incorporate, where you can, left- overs,” Ms. Lay said. By planning ahead for the week, items such as stir fry, chili in a thermos or lasagna with a salad can be sent for lunch. “Kids will absolutely love it because it’s different than a sandwich,” Ms. Lay said, adding it also reminds them of home. Send along crackers or a whole grain roll too, for items such as soups and chili, she said. “So you’re hitting a lot of (food groups) that way,” she added. “It’s not that hard to do.” Pasta and potato salads can make good sides too, she said. Individual yogurts, low-fat but not necessarily with sweeteners; sliced fruits and vegetables with different dips; dried fruit, fresh or canned fruit cocktail packed in fruit juice or water, but not in syrup; and even pudding because of its dairy content are some good choices, she said. For drinks, 100-per cent, unsweetened fruit juice even from concentrate, milk -- plain or chocolate -- and water are among those she recommends.

The 18-year-old Pickering resident is entering his second full sea- son with the Oshawa Generals and as the team transitions through yet another rebuilding phase, Andreoff thinks the young club will open some eyes around the league this year. “We’re a young team, and we’re going to be the underdogs, but that’s OK. I think we’re going to surprise a lot of teams,” says Andreoff. While that remains to be seen, Andreoff’s coach and general man- ager, Chris DePiero, has heightened the expectations on 6-foot 190- pound left winger. “The expectation level is for him to step up with offensive production and reliability to us as a coaching staff,” says DePiero. “That to me is big as a veteran on this team and a veteran in this league. The expectation level on his own part has to be in the same vein and he can’t be satis- fied and complacent. We’re going to challenge everyone on that, but I expect high things from Andy.” With only 11 goals in 91 career OHL games to his credit, just how much offence Andreoff can add to the attack is in question, however, DePiero fully believes the ability exists for him to do so. “I think he controls the puck very well, specifically down low in the offensive areas, bellow the circles,” explains DePiero. “I think he does a great job on the cycles. (Sunday) he scored a goal on a nice shot. He’s got a great little snap shot. We’re just trying to challenge him to use that shot a little more.” He’ll be asked to do just that going forward, especially if the likes of Brett Parnham, a 50-goal man from a year ago and Kory Nagy, who was second on the team in goals, don’t return to the club. HOCKEY Andreoff has high hopes DURHAM -- Around the league, a number of Durham Region players will be asked to step up for their teams this season. In Barrie, Burketon’s Luke Pither should make an impact as an overager with the Colts, while Cody Alcock and Brett Mackie of Whitby and Courtice’s Dylan Goddard will skate for George Burnett in Belleville. In Bramp- ton, Pickering’s Ian Watters will have an opportunity to play on a rebuilding Battalion team, while in Erie, defender Chris Breen of Uxbridge will try to help the Otters return to the playoffs. In Guelph, Whitby’s Brandon Foote is recovering from hip surgery, but should be back in goal in the new year. Kingston, meanwhile, will rely on Good- wood’s Ethan Werek to provide offence, along with Ajax’s Colt Kennedy. In Mississauga, Whitby’s Dustin Ekelman will suit up as an overager, while Emerson Clark of Whitby will join the Oshawa Generals. Ottawa might have the most impressive group of locals with Oshawa’s Dalton Smith, Brooklin’s Ryan Martin- dale and Bowmanville’s Tyler Cuma, while in Peterborough, Whitby’s Pat Daley returns for his overage season with the Petes. Rounding out the rest of the locals are Whitby’s Josh Shalla and Daniel Pachis with Saginaw, Uxbridge’s Brock Beukeboom in Sault Ste. Marie, Bowmanville’s Mitch Heard in Plymouth, Ajax’s Marcus Carroll and Mark Ram- kema in Owen Sound and Cour- tice’s Greg Nemisz, who returns to Windsor to help the Spitfires in their attempt to repeat as OHL and Memorial Cup champions. AROUND THE OHL Plenty of local talent makes the grade RON PIETRONIRO / METROLAND OSHAWA -- Pickering’s Andy Andreoff will be relied on to provide some leadership and scoring this season with the Oshawa Generals. newsdurhamregion.comNews Advertiser • September 17, 200917 AP Thursday September 17, 2009 Ajax & Pickering Locations 255 Salem Rd.

Not only did Ajax win the league for the third con- secutive year, but they have done it in style by capturing the league and being unde- feated in league play for three consecutive years. For the 2009 season, the Dynamite played in the CESL against teams from Peterborough, Darling- ton, Oshawa, Whitby and Ajax. Playing 14 games, the Dynamite won 13 games and tied one. They scored an impressive 124 goals and only allowed seven. In the final game of the season, against a talent- ed Darlington team, the Dynamite showed com- posure and persevered. With 12 minutes left in the game, and down 2-0, coach Michelle White changed the team formation to a more attacking one, and the Dynamite, with some tenacious and skillful play- ing, was able to equalize. “My team has a lot of heart and never gives up,” said coach Michelle White. “We had already clenched the league, but I knew the undefeated season was very important to the girls. I decided to give it our all by attacking and went with only one defender. Losing by 2-0 or 4-0 didn’t matter at this stage. The girls were able to adapt to the new formation, and Darlington could not handle the added pressure of the Dynamite attack.” Two days earlier, the Dynamite captured the CESL Cup by defeating Ajax Turboz 5-0 in the semifi- nals and Whitby A 6-0 in the finals. With 16 teams competing, the Dynamite secured a berth in the semi- final by cruising past Ajax United 14-1 and Pickering B 7-0.

SOCCER U10 Dynamite shows explosive skills FOOTBALL Glavic signs with Hamilton Tiger Cats PICKERING -- Sasha Glav- ic has returned to where his CFL career started. The Hamilton Tiger Cats announced Tuesday they have signed the linebacker. Glavic, a 6-foot-3, 191-lb. native of Pickering, spent the first two seasons (2007, 2008) of his career with the Ticats before being traded to the Saskatchewan Roughrid- ers back in May. He was sub- sequently released by the Roughriders on June 25. In 19 career games, the 26- year-old University of Wind- sor product has recorded 16 special teams tackles, one defensive tackle and one forced fumble. SENIOR LACROSSE Former Redmen captain wins MVP award BY BRIAN MCNAIR bmcnair@durhamregion.com NEW WESTMINSTER -- Shawn Williams now has his name engraved alongside such lacrosse legends as Paul and Gary Gait, John Tavares and John Grant Jr. And, ironically enough, Wayne Colley. Williams, a 35-year-old Oshawa resident and teacher at Donald A. Wilson Secondary School in Whitby, was named the most valuable player of the Mann Cup national lacrosse championship Saturday, after helping the Brampton Excelsi- ors to a 9-7 overtime win and a seven-game victory over the host New Westminster Salmon- bellies. The irony is that it was Colley, now the general manager of the Brooklin Redmen, who took the bold step of trading the Redmen captain to the Excelsiors prior to the Major Series Lacrosse deadline this summer. Although Williams had long said he could never see himself wearing anoth- er jersey in the league, winning a second Mann Cup has surely eased the pain. He also won the Mann Cup in 2000 with the Redmen, but hadn’t had a sniff at it since. “There were both special, definitely, but this one was more of a war,” Williams said of a series that featured four overtime games, one of which went to double over- time. “It was the hardest thing I’ve ever done in my life,” he added. “Everyone has always said it’s a tough thing to win on the road and, let me tell you, it was. It was seven pure battles. Every game could have gone either way ... There’s not one of our guys who wasn’t totally physically and mental- ly drained, that’s for sure.” Williams had a goal and two assists in the clinching win Saturday and finished with 9-20-29 numbers, five more points than runner-up and teammate Colin Doyle. The series began with a bench-clearing brawl in Game 1, won 12-9 by the Salmon- bellies, and went back and forth from there, with the Excelsi- ors winning the next two, the Salmonbellies the two after that, and Brampton the final two, both in overtime. Another local player and for- mer Redmen made the win possible. Whitby’s Bill Greer set up the tying goal in the sev- enth and deciding game, tak- ing advantage of a turnover to assist on Mike Carnegie’s top- shelf tally with just 16 seconds remaining. While saying any number of players on his team could have been named MVP, Williams gladly accept- ed the trophy. “There’s only one Mike Kelly Award win- ner every year and I’ve only been a part of two Mann Cups, so to have my name on that trophy is a huge honour,” said Wil- liams. “It could have gone to a number of guys, but I was the one so I’ll obvious- ly take it. But, winning the Mann Cup is obviously the bigger thing.” The Excelsiors also defeated the Salmon- bellies in last year’s final, in Brampton. This year’s win capped a fantastic sum- mer for Williams, who also won the Major League Lacrosse field championship with the Toronto Nationals. Williams the main Mann in final series SHAWN WILLIAMS newsdurhamregion.comNews Advertiser • September 17, 200918 AP HOCKEY Serville signs with Stouffville Spirit Former Ajax-Pickering Raider joins blue-line DURHAM -- A graduate of the Ajax-Pickering Raiders Minor Midgets has caught on with the Stouffville Spirit of the Central Canadian Hockey League. Brennan Serville, a 6-foot-2, 170-pounder who was an eighth- round selection of the Sudbury Wolves in this year’s OHL draft, will patrol the blue line for the Spirit. Last season in 56 games with the Raiders, Serville had 4- 15-19 offensive numbers and 28 penalty minutes. He was one of about 50-60 1993-born players to attend Stouffville’s main training camp last month. By the end of camp, Spirit GM Ken Burrows had to whittle that number down to just two 16-year-olds as per league rules. “By the end of the year, they could be among our top five defencemen,” said Burrows of Serville and Ryan Zupancic, who was a fifth-round pick of the Sarnia Sting. “They’re both very mobile and good skaters.” It was a challenging decision, especially with some young high-end forwards and a cou- ple of candidates from the Whitchurch-Stouffville area in the mix, Burrows said. It boiled down to position. “We knew going into the sea- son on paper we were short on defence and looking at our for- wards, we knew we had a lot of good forwards,” said Bur- rows. “When we weighed things out, we felt we needed help on defence. Zupancic and Serville can play any time. We think we got two good ones.” Serville will play a home game of sorts at the Ajax Community Centre on Sunday, Sept. 27 when the Spirit visit the Ajax Attack at 3 p.m. --with files from Mike Hayakawa ADVERTISING FEATURE 1550 BAYLY ST., #35, PICKERING 905.839.0574 www.aroundthehomekitchens.com •KITCHENS• KITCHENS •VANITIES• VANITIES •WALL UNITS• WALL UNITS Exclusive“WeeLearn”EducationalProgram • A REGULAR PAY CHEQUE • BACK-UP FOR YOUR DAYS OFF • WORKSHOPS FOR PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT • EQUIPMENT, RESOURCES AND CRAFT SUPPLIES • ASK ABOUT OUR EXCITING START-UP INCENTIVE PROGRAM Ajax/Pickering 1-866-333-3299 www.weewatch.com Caring for children can be very rewarding with Wee Watch.
