PICKERING -- Gordon Zimmerman was awarded the Lieutenant Governor’s Ontario Heritage Award for Lifetime Achievement. Pickering man builds respect
GORDON ZIMMERMAN RECOGNIZED BY PROVINCE, CITY
KRISTEN CALIS
kcalis@durhamregion.com
PICKERING -- A Pickering resident knows
buildings so well that he’s been honoured by
both the Province and the City.
Gordon Zimmerman has been volunteer-
ing to benefit Ontario’s building heritage since
the early 1960s. He’s a trained architect, having
graduated from the University of Toronto in
1957, and “has brought a special flair to the vol-
unteer communities in which he participates,”
Mayor Dave Ryan said when he recognized Mr.
Zimmerman at a recent council meeting.
He was awarded the Lieutenant Governor’s
Ontario Heritage Award at a ceremony held
at Queen’s Park, which the mayor attended,
where he asked Mr. Zimmerman if he’d mind
a ceremony in Pickering.
“I was quite surprised because I knew that
the City had put my name forward for some-
thing at the Provincial level, but then time
went by and I sort of forgot about it,” Mr. Zim-
merman said in an interview.
The retired architect worked with Public
Works Canada’s Ontario Region for 27 years,
primarily on preserving and maintaining fed-
eral government buildings.

AJAX -- Ajax fire crews responded to a
fire at a home in the new Sundial com-
munity currently under construction on
Linnel Street.
The subdivision is located just south of
Rossland Road on Audley Road. Three
trucks were at the scene on Thursday
afternoon.
“It’s a working fire between two homes,”
said Ajax Fire Department platoon chief
Paul Ritchie.
The homes are part of a row of fully
attached townhouses. Mr. Ritchie said
there were no injuries.
A construction worker who declined
to provide his name said the fire was the
result of a “small accident” and some tar
paper caught fire.

OSHAWA -- A man found dead Wednesday
afternoon in Oshawa has been identified as
a patient who went missing from the Ontar-
io Shores mental health centre earlier in the
week.
An autopsy is being conducted to deter-
mine the cause of death of Alexander Nolan,
24. The York Region man was being treated
at the Whitby hospital after being declared
not criminally responsible for the death of
a family member. Mr. Nolan, who was diag-
nosed with schizophrenia and required
medication daily, left the south Whitby facil-
ity on a day pass Monday. Police were called
when he failed to return Monday evening.
A City of Oshawa worker found the young
man’s body in a culvert that runs below Nas-
sau Street south of Gibb Street early Wednes-
day afternoon, police said.
In a statement released Thursday after-
noon Ontario Shores president Glenna Ray-
mond expressed sadness over the man’s
death.

Home on federal lands
BROUGHAM -- A suspicious fire in an
abandoned house on North Road, near
Hwy. 7, destroyed the structure Thursday
morning.
Transport Canada, in charge of the fed-
eral lands, has arranged regular security
patrols for the abandoned homes, and it
was security personnel who discovered
the blaze at about 9 a.m.
“We are treating the fire as suspicious,”
said Pickering Platoon Chief Geoff Nich-
olson.
He added it appeared the fire started
on the porch of the building and by the
time fire crews arrived the house was
fully engulfed by the flames.
There was no hydro to the building.
Chief Nicholson said the fire did
$150,000 damage.
Fire prevention officers are investigat-
ing.
The road was closed north of Hwy. 7 as
fire crews worked to contain the blaze.
This is second fire in an abandoned
home in Pickering this week.
On Wednesday, a vacant building on
Dunfair Street, near Dunbarton High
School, burned.

KEITH GILLIGAN
kgilligan@durhamregion.com
DURHAM -- For the second straight year,
Durham Region won’t be indexing some
development charges.
That means a slight drop in DCs imposed
on new homes, although the decrease
could have been hundreds of dollars more
if the fees were indexed to the full amount.
DCs are based on the Statistics Canada
Non-residential Construction Price Index
and it dropped 2.4 per cent from March of
last year to March of this year.
The fees are imposed on new homes
to cover growth-related services such as
roads, sewers, police, water and paramedic
services. The Region, local municipalities
and school boards all impose DCs, which
passed on to the consumer in the price of a
new home.
For a single-detached home, the cur-
rent Regional rate is $18,521. The amount
would drop by $24, to $18,497, if approved
by Regional council on June 2.
A 2.4-per cent drop in DCs would have
meant a decrease of $444.
Last year, DCs were to go up by 4.5 per
cent, but council decided on a one-year
freeze to give the development industry
some relief during the recession. By not
increasing the fees, the Region didn’t col-
lect $5.4 million in DCs.
During a meeting of the Regional finance
committee on Wednesday, Ajax Mayor
Steve Parish opposed the plan to waive the
indexing. It’s the same position he took last
year.
“We should not waive indexing,” he said,
pointing to the lost revenue last year. “It’s
lost, gone, goodbye.
“We can’t give a decrease this year
because we did it last year. Waiving index-
ing will make you a hero, but you won’t
accomplish what you want,” he said.
DCs dropping 2.4 per cent “is a real anom-
aly. Most years, it won’t go down.”
Whitby Councillor Don Mitchell also
opposed the move, saying lost income will
have to be made up by homeowners.

He’s volunteered with the Architectural
Conservancy of Ontario, the Ontario Asso-
ciation of Architects, the Pickering Village
Historical Society, the Ajax Local Architec-
tural Conservation Advisory, the Pickering
Township Historical Society, and Heritage
Pickering.
“Gord has been a leading member of the
heritage community in Pickering for over
40 years,” Mayor Ryan said.
Mr. Zimmerman naturally fell into the
field since his father owned a builder sup-
ply business, and was a house builder
before that, making the business a big part
of his family for around 100 years.
“So it wasn’t hard,” he said.
Although Mr. Zimmerman plans to take
life and projects one day at a time, “there’s
no lack of things to do.”
He’s been working with other local vol-
unteers, such as John Sabean, to create a
registry for significant buildings.
“We’ve made a start of it but there’s still a
lot more,” he said.
He also has a great interest in the Green-
wood Library, which was the Greenwood
Schoolhouse that former Prime Minister
John Diefenbaker attended, and feels it
deserves a federal designation.
And there’s no shortage of Pickering
homes to take an interest in, both old and
modern.
He said there are some on Whitevale
Road he’s particularly interested in, and
he also feels the Bentley-Carruthers farm-
house on the federal lands is well worth
preserving.
“They’re probably over a hundred years
in all these cases,” he said.
He’s fond of more modern ones as well,
such as the Cleeve Horne House on the 8th
Concession.
“It’s spectacular,” he said. “It’s not big,
maybe 30 feet by 30 feet.”
But he feels these homes are wonderful
and should be maintained.
“It’s a difficult thing, but that’s what it’s
really all about, to find the ones that are
significant architecturally and historically
and get them preserved,” he said.

Wheel revenue potential
for businesses in Durham
Durham Region politicians and busi-
ness leaders got a unique perspective on
the business cycle this week at an eye-
opening session. But it wasn’t a work-
shop on quarterly revenue projections
or balance sheet sums, it was about the
business that cyclists can bring to Dur-
ham’s local economies.
The event brought local business offi-
cials together to learn about the jaw-
dropping revenue potential that can be
tapped if Durham was more aggressive in
attracting avid cyclers and cycling groups
to discover the great trail systems, scenic
landscapes and challenging road routes
the region can offer. Ajax Mayor Steve
Parish, an avid cyclist with thousands of
kilometres of travel to his credit, provided
the keynote speech as part of the event to
raise awareness of the Welcome Cyclists
Network. The WCN is the part of the larg-
er Transportation Options non-profit
organization formed to promote cycling
and sustainable transportation systems.
And the message it brought should
raise some eyebrows in local municipali-
ties. Cyclists and cycling networks, noted
Mayor Parish at the event, tend to be
more affluent, have above-average edu-
cation and tend to spend wherever their
trails take them. The WCN’s research
reinforces that notion: in 2007, 1.5 mil-
lion visitors participated in cycling activi-
ties in Ontario, spending more than $300
million. The Netherlands reports 2.5 mil-
lion overnight stays annually are made by
cycling tourists. In Switzerland, cyclists
using the Swiss trail systems generated
approximately $135 million in revenues
in 2004.
Durham Region municipalities boast
wonderfully developed urban and water-
front trails. Endless skies and rolling
fields beckon those who choose to cycle
through our scenic rural communities.
Trails are well maintained and bike-
friendly. There are numerous greenspac-
es, forests and rest spots. And they’re all
connected, in one way or another, with
the people and places that make up Dur-
ham Region’s communities.
We hope every business takes note of
the potential for luring cyclists and cycling
groups to the communities in which they
operate. Pitch your products or services
through bike networks. Make sure your
business is bicycle friendly. Take the
opportunity to recruit supportive politi-
cians to the cause and raise awareness of
the revenue and profit potential through
local government.
Along with the obvious health benefits
associated with cycling, it can also pro-
vide a boost to the health of local econo-
mies. Businesses that choose not to capi-
talize on the potential offered could liter-
ally see profits drive right on by.
-- Metroland Durham Region Media Group
The clash between Israeli soldiers and
a flotilla of activists looking to run Israel’s
blockade of Gaza was the biggest interna-
tional story this week.
That’s not a surprise given that nine of
the activists were killed and both activists
and Israeli Defence Forces (IDF) soldiers
were wounded. While the events of May
31 are a hot political issue, they’re also a
prime example of the effect of social media
on how news reaches the public. And in
this case the public is anyone around the
world with an Internet connection.
Activists have long used the Internet and
social media to get their message across.
This case was no different and the activists
were carrying camera phones and were
able to quickly spread video around the
world with the help of colleagues on safer
shores operating their websites.
But what’s interesting was the response
from the Israeli military. Shortly after news
of the clash broke, IDF began posting video
of the incident on YouTube, at one point
posting a new video every couple of hours.
The organization also has a blog (where
they embed the YouTube videos) and a
Twitter account which they used to further
spread their perspective.
Essentially, the global public had no need
to tune in to the six o’clock news or watch
CNN cycle through the news to view video
of the incident; they could go online and
it was at their fingertips. They could form
their own opinions based on the footage
and content from both sides and quickly
share that information with their friends
and family.
As more and more information came to
light, journalists were left to play catch-up,
the news on their websites often lagging
behind what was already disseminated
over Twitter.
Now, police and military video taping
protests is nothing new and plainclothes
officers have been taping certain protests
in Toronto for at least a decade. As anyone
who can remember those grainy images
of the first Gulf War on CNN in the 1990s
knows, the military has been taping opera-
tions for probably much longer.
The difference was those videos were
rarely released to the public and if they
were, it was to major media networks who
used the footage as they saw fit. They chose
how to edit, where to place it in the news-
cast and how often to repeat it. The public
had no choice but to passively watch.
All that’s changed now and the public is
directly involved in both creating, docu-
menting and distributing the news.
With the G20 meeting heading to Toronto,
thousands of activists descend on the City,
some intent on clashing with police. Videos
of those clashes will hit the net quickly and
it’ll be interesting to see whether Toronto
police will respond by releasing their own
footage.
If you’re a Durham resident planning
on checking out the protests, either as an
observer or a participant, e-mail me your
photos or tweet me and I’ll post them on
my blog.

PClass EA for Regional Services for
the Central Pickering Development Plan
NOTICE OF PUBLIC INFORMATION CENTRE No. 1
WORKS DEPARTMENT May 31, 2010 PUBLIC NOTICE
The Study
The Regional Municipality of Durham is currently undertaking a study for the provision of Regional services, including
water, wastewater, transportation, and transit, to service the lands identi ed as the Central Pickering Development Plan
(CPDP) Area. As part of the regional services, a study for the provision of service facilities is also underway. The CPDP
was completed by the Province in May 2006 and requires the Region to proceed with planning the infrastructure works
required for the area. In order to meet this requirement, a study is underway to meet the environmental assessment
requirements, by developing a servicing plan based on environmental considerations, as well as technical and nancial
ef ciencies.
The study consists of two projects:
1. Water and Wastewater Infrastructure (e.g. watermains, sewers, pumping stations, reservoirs); and
2. Transportation (e.g. roads, bridges, cycling paths/
lanes and sidewalks in Regional road rights-of-way)
and Transit Infrastructure.
In addition, the Region has chosen to undertake a
separate Class EA process for the service facility
component of the regional services. The service facility
component is also a Schedule C project and will be
conducted concurrently with this Study.
The projects will be conducted in accordance with
the process de ned in both the Municipal Engineers
Association Municipal Class Environmental Assessment
(EA) document (October 2000, as amended in 2007)
and Ministry of Energy and Infrastructure Class
Environmental Assessment Process (as amended
September 2008). The Environmental Assessment
for the projects will ful ll the requirements of both the
Ontario Environmental Assessment Act (EAA) and the
Canadian Environmental Assessment Act (CEAA).
The two projects that form part of the study will need to
meet different schedules under the Class EA process,
as follows:
1. Schedule B – water and wastewater Infrastructure
2. Schedule C – transportation and transit
infrastructure
A third project for the service facility is also being
conducted as a Schedule C.
Public Information Centre No. 1
All interested stakeholders are invited to provide input
pertaining to the two projects at the Public Information
Centre (PIC). PIC No. 1 is the rst of two PIC’s to be held to provide an opportunity for interested stakeholders to learn
about the project (incuding the project background), potential alternatives, evaluation process of the alternatives, and
next steps as well provide feedback concerning the study. Representatives from both the Region of Durham and the
consultant, GENIVAR, will be present at the PICs to answer questions and discuss the study progression to date. The rst
PIC has been scheduled as follows:
Date: Wednesday, June 16, 2010
Time: 6 - 8:30 p.m.
Location: Pickering Recreation Complex, 1875 Valley Farm Road
The O’Brien Room (arena entrance at rear)
We are interested in hearing any comments or concerns you may have with respect to this study. Comments will be
maintained for reference throughout the project and will become part of the public record. Under the Freedom of Information
and Protection of Privacy Act and the Environmental Assessment Act, unless otherwise stated in the submission, any
personal information such as name, address, telephone number and property location included in a submission will become
part of the public record les for this matter and will be released, if requested, to any person. For further information, or if
you are unable to attend the public information centre and wish to provide your comments,

AJAX -- The biggest fireworks display yet will cele-
brate Ajax Home Week’s 40th anniversary with a bang
this year.
Current and former residents are invited to celebrate
Ajax from June 14 to June 20 when the festivities will con-
clude with the Waterfront Festival and fireworks.
For 40 years, the Town’s five service clubs have played a
prominent role in Home Week. They are: the Ajax Rota-
ry Club, the Ajax Lions Club, The Kinsmen Club of Ajax,
The Optimist Youth Club of Ajax and the Royal Canadian
Legion Branch 322. The fun kicks off with a ribbon cut-
ting and pasta night at the Ajax Lions Club.
In addition to celebrating Ajax’s past, organizers
are reaching out to the future and emphasizing youth
involvement.
Twenty-year-old Matt Hayes is the Youth Chair. He’s
following in his father Patrick’s footsteps. An Ajax fire-
fighter, Patrick Hayes will serve as the fireworks chair for
the fourth year running.
“I’ve gone to Home Week since I was born, I’ve seen
the fireworks and it’s amazing,” said Matt Hayes.
Mr. Hayes said his goal as youth chair is to get the mes-
sage out that anyone can get involved with Home Week.
“We’re always looking for volunteers to come out, even
if it’s setting up tables or running a game,” he said.
Anisa Hajizadeh, 16, is a youth ambassador for Home
Week and she said she thinks it’s important for youth to
get involved with local events.
As to what she thinks will be the most popular?
“The fireworks, hands down, because I think youth just
like to relax and chill,” she said, adding that the annual
fireworks display is simply stunning.
The festival kicks off at 8 a.m. Sunday, June 20 at Rotary
Park with a pancake breakfast. Activities throughout the
day include a watermelon eating contest and a horse-
shoe tournament. It all culminates with the fireworks at
approximately 10 p.m. This year, Home Week organizers
are spending $14,800 on the fireworks display.
Families can also celebrate on Friday, June 18 at the
Mardi Gras Masquerade Parade at the Durham Centre
at Harwood Avenue and Kingston Road. A pre-parade
family events start at 6:30 p.m. and the parade begins at
9:30 p.m. Parade watchers will receive a free bead neck-
lace and there will be free buses to the event for seniors.
Details are in the Home Week book.
Vickie Camara is the parade chair and one of the own-
ers of Casey’s in the Durham Centre and she’s a big fan
of Home Week, having participated for about 15 years.
“It brings people out, it lets them know what’s going on
in their own backyard in Ajax, (people) get to know their
neighbours,” she said. “We’ve got lots to offer in Ajax.”
Home Week Chair Wilma Graham said her highlights
will include the Home Fest Steak Barbecue at the Ajax
Community Centre on June 19 from 6 p.m. to 1 a.m. For
$15, adults get a steak dinner and a chance to enjoy some
live entertainment from Nuth’n Fancy at a fun, casual
dress event.
Ms. Graham remembers participating in Home Week
as a child and she wanted to say thank you to MPP and
former Ajax councillor Joe Dickson for his hard work.
“He’s built Ajax Home Week to what it is,” she said.
As for Ms. Camara, she has one main message for res-
idents: “Don’t miss it. See what our community is all
about.”

We weren’t dancing
BY MIKE JOHNSTON
mjohnston@durhamregion.com
CLARINGTON -- I like to go slow.
No, let me rephrase that.
The only thing I enjoy more than a fast car is a faster roller-
coaster, but when it comes to using my own two feet and mov-
ing to music, the slower the better.
I am musically inclined. I do a great air guitar rendition of
Styx’s Come Sail Away, my favourite movie is Singing in the Rain
and the best video I have ever seen is Michael Jackson’s Thriller.
I love So You Think You Can Dance and if we ever get our work
band, the Somali Pirates, underway I will be the lead singer. But
when it comes to dancing with my wife, I can move slowly in
circles on the dance floor with the best of them.
So when Antal Ronaszeki from the Social Dancesport Club
asked me to be part of a Dancing with the Stars competition as
part of a fundraiser for the club, my wife immediately agreed. I
would need 990 more toes and fingers to count how many times
my wife Brenda has asked me to take ballroom dance lessons.
So I agreed and as part of the competition, we were invited
to take beginner waltz lessons with instructor and past world
champion dancer Vladimir Kurchevskis.
The contest has since fallen through, but we stayed with the
lessons. For the past six weeks from 4 to 5 p.m. on Sundays at
the Harmony United Church Hall, Brenda and I joined two
other couples in getting to know our dance side. At various
times we were flowers, we reached for invisible walls and a few
times Valdimir threw in a golf analogy which got me pumped
up.
The waltz is all about balance, rising and falling while you
move across the floor, and trying not to step on your partner’s
toes.
When Valdimir does it, he glides. When Brenda and I do it, it’s
more like walking through mud wearing snowshoes. Well, that
was week one.
We did improve. By the end of the lessons
in week six, we were able to move from one
side of the hall to the other fairly effortless-
ly, with just a few mistakes. We are no Gene
Kelly and Cyd Charisse, but we did get bet-
ter.
But between week one and six there
were a lot of laughs, quizzical looks and
blank expressions.
When we snapped
at each other for
missing a step one
of the other cou-
ples noted we were
finally getting the
hang of the dance.
Who knew you also
had to be good
at math to do the
waltz? One-two-
three, one-two-
three, I would hear
Vladimir repeat the
count over and over. But
it is the beat for the dance.
A large move on one, a smaller
step on two and collect your legs
on three, then repeat. The steps
were a bit more difficult for Bren-
da as she had to remember the
count, but do the steps backwards.
Along the way we learned the small
and big box step, chasse and a dip.
It was those backward steps which
caused the biggest embarrassment during
the six weeks, when Vladimir approached
me to show us a step. He wanted to show
Brenda how it was done so he put his
arms out and I was expected to grab
them but my head lowered, I turned
red and my hands dropped to my
side. We did the step that way and
Brenda didn’t stop laughing for
days.
By week six, as Vladimir
walked to me, I grabbed him
by the arms and away we
went.
The six weeks flew by and
we looked forward to that one
hour away from the kids every Sunday.
We liked it so much we have signed up for the
intermediate waltz lessons, which start Sunday.
Now all we need is an empty dance floor to show what we
have learned.
SABRINA BYRNES / METROLAND
OSHAWA -- Mike Johnston, managing editor for
Metroland Durham Region Media Group, and
his wife Brenda, participated in the Beginner
Waltz Class put on by the Social DanceSport
Club at Harmony United Church Hall.

Advertising FeatureG&Home,
(NC)—With warm, sunny weather fi nally
here, Canadians can fi nally enjoy one of
their favourite pastimes – gardening – and
its many benefi ts. With today’s hectic world
revolving around deadlines and obligations,
gardening allows us to escape from busy
schedules, lower blood pressure and reduce
stress.
“Believe it or not, gardening is proven to be
a great form of exercise, burning up to 300
calories per hour!” says Karen Webb, phys-
iotherapist and author. “At the same time, all
that watering, planting, raking, and weed-
ing without proper preparation can increase
susceptibility to muscle strain and injury.”
To prevent gardening-related injuries, Webb
recommends this approach:
• Take breaks – Quite often, people spend
hours focusing on the same activity and
staying in the same awkward position with-
out any breaks. Remember to move around
every 15-20 minutes, take short walks and
stretch.
• Planning makes a difference – Alternate a
diffi cult task with an easy one and keep your
work in front of your body with your arms
in your easy zone, between the level of your
hips and shoulders, while moving with your
work.
• Manage your aches – to relieve muscle
pain and soreness, consider taking an over-
the-counter analgesic, like Tylenol Back
Pain or Tylenol Muscle Aches & Body Pain.
• Use props – There is no need to spend a lot
of money on expensive equipment. Using a
hot water bottle and foam pad when kneel-
ing can help prevent knee injuries. A bucket
turned upside down makes a great little
stool for those extensive weeding sessions.
Additional tips to manage pain can be found
online at www.livingwell.ca.

Monarchs advance
to OFSAA semifinals
BRAD KELLY
bkelly@durhamregion.com
PICKERING -- St. Mary baseball head coach
Brian Chen said that pitching had plagued his
ball club this season. Not so much that they
didn’t have quality arms, it was just a matter of
injuries contributing to the problem.
Consider those problems solved.
The pitching came through when the Mon-
archs needed it most earlier this week at the
OFSAA Prentice Cup East Regional, as the
Pickering school earned one of two berths into
next week’s OFSAA semifinals. They punched
a ticket to the final four with an exclamation
point, mercying last year’s provincial champi-
ons from Birchmount Park 12-2 on Wednesday
afternoon at Kinsmen Stadium in Oshawa to
cap off a great two days.
Rob Heard did it all for the Monarchs in the
game against Birchmount Park, tossing a com-
plete game and knocking in four runs at the
plate.
“He said to me, ‘Coach, I want the ball.’ I was
actually thinking of pitching somebody else,”
said Chen of a conversation with Heard before
the final game. “He’s been our go to guy the past
couple of years. He had been injured and I was
worried about his arm, but he wanted the ball.
“I discussed it with his parents, and they
said, ‘How can you say no to him.’ He threw an
incredible game. Just the intensity and passion
on his face the entire game was incredible to
watch.”
St. Mary entered the East Regional as the
number three seed, opening with a 14-3 victory
over King City, as Graham Holland got the win
on the mound. The next outing against Birch-
mount Park wasn’t so successful, as St. Mary
was blanked 8-0. The loss forced them to reel
off three wins in a row to advance, which they
did, beating St. Joseph’s (Cornwall) 4-1 behind
the arm of Aaron Rabena, while Myles Phillips
picked up the win in an 8-2 decision over Inn-
isdale (Barrie). Those victories set up the one-
game showdown with Birchmount Park.
“When it was all over we were really happy,”
said Chen. “We knew we had some really tough
competition. Just to get through, the guys were
really happy with themselves.
“We knew this was a possibility and as the
season progressed, the guys worked really hard
toward it, hoping we would peak in and around
playoff time and they did. It was some of the
best baseball that they have played.”
Sinclair from Whitby was the other team to
qualify out of the East Regional. They will join St.
Mary and the two West Regional qualifiers, Vin-
cent Massey and St. Anne’s, both from Windsor.
Tuesday’s semifinals at Connorvale Park in Eto-
bicoke will feature a crossover format, with the
number one seed in the West, Vincent Massey,
playing the second seed from the East, St. Mary,
while Sinclair (#1 East) will play St. Anne’s (#2
West). The winners will meet for gold and sil-
ver on Wednesday, with the losers playing for
bronze.
Chen said that he isn’t familiar with Tuesday’s
opponent, Vincent Massey, but that his team
played St. Anne’s earlier this season at a tourna-
ment hosted by Sinclair, losing 8-0.
He also pointed out the 8-0 score was the same
result his team had against Birchmount Park in
the East Regional on Tuesday, but reversed the
outcome with the 12-2 mercy the following day
to advance.durhamregion.comNews Advertiser • June 4, 201021

Cheer Pak
part of success
PICKERING -- Opening
weekend on their home
field had a little bit of every-
thing for the Ajax-Pickering
Dolphins.
The 60-member Cheer
Pak attended the two full
days of games to cheer in
their flashy new uniforms at
six of seven rep home open-
ers. Both home and away
fans admired the new look
and management of the
squad. Head coach Shau-
na Thompson has years of
experience in dance and
the squad has never looked
as put together and pro-
fessional as it did on the
weekend. The cheerlead-
ers range in age from 3 to 18
and played a positive role
in supporting their teams,
which by the end of the
weekend came away with a
five-win, two-loss opening
record.
The Dolphins cheerlead-
ers will be cheering at all
OVFL, OMFL and house
league competition home
games.
The organization also
presented Tyrone Skene
with his very own Dolphins
team jersey. Skene has been
following Dolphins football
for many years.
Beginning Friday, June 4
and continuing for every
Friday through to July
9 (except July 2), house
league players will get the
opportunity to experience
for themselves community
football in rep style. These
very spirited and ambitious
players with aspirations of
rep football will have their
chance to shine on Friday
Night Lights.
June 4 games begin at
6:30 p.m. and 8:30 p.m. at
Pine Ridge High School in
Pickering.
OVFL and OMFL teams
are away this weekend but
return the weekend of June
12 to Kinsmen Park. For
more info on games visit the
Dolphins website at www.

PICKERINGADVERTISING FEATUREEnjoy the Sunshine with a Diamond Shine
It’s the season to do
some Spring Cleaning, but
don’t forget to give your vehicle
a little TLC too!
“We all work hard to
afford our vehicles, so it’s worth
the small investment to maintain them and keep
them looking great,” says Joanne Elawar of
Diamond Shine.
Bring your vehicle into Diamond Shine to
remove the salt and stains from winter and leave
with it impeccably clean and shining! With over
15 years in the detailing business, Diamond
Shine has earned a reputation for their high
quality work and value pricing.
Diamond Shine offers a package that
fits every budget, from a wash starting at just
$19.95 to complete detailing. A Diamond Shine
car wash is nothing like the car washes you can
drive through. The vehicle is hand washed,
using high quality soap, and hand dried with a
chamois to achieve a brilliant
shine. The difference can be
seen in the details!
It’s called detailing for
a reason. At Diamond Shine,
their showroom package
leaves no small space untouched. To achieve a
showroom look, they use toothbrushes and Q-Tips
to get to the hard to reach areas. They only use
the best products, to ensure superior results.
Interiors are vacuumed, shampooed and
detailed. Don’t let dog hairs and spilled drinks
spoil the interior of your vehicle! Bring it in to
Diamond Shine to be cleaned and have your
upholstery protected to keep it looking great all
summer long. It’s also a great time to have your
vehicle waxed and polished to protect it from the
summer elements.
Things are heating up, both outside and
at Diamond Shine. Many people are taking
advantage of the nice weather and bringing their
vehicles in. To avoid disappointment, make sure
you call to book your appointment today!
“We want to thank everyone for putting
their trust in us for the past 15 years, including
both our loyal customers and the many dealers in
the area,” says Joanne.

operated business that has been serving the

Another win for senior Dolphins
DURHAM -- On a beautiful
Sunday evening, the Ajax-
Pickering Dolphins Sr. Var-
sity OMFL team improved its
record to 2-0 by beating the
visiting Orangeville Outlaws
by a score of 28-7.
Brad MacMillan rushed for
the first touchdown to open
the scoring, while another
rushing TD followed from
D’Shane Chung. Both con-
verts came from the foot of
Adam Konkle and gave the
Dolphins a 14-0 halftime
lead.
The most exciting play of
the game came in the second
half when quarterback Cur-
tis Inniss passed to Roynelle
Meredith for a 70+ yard catch
and run for the Dolphins’
third TD of the game. The
final touchdown came as a
result of a running play by
Tristan Clough.
The tough Dolphins
defence held the Outlaws to
only seven points by pres-
suring their quarterback all
evening which resulted in
numerous turnovers. These
included interceptions by
Darryl Lindsay, Jevon Bryan,
Taylor Eskins and Brandon
Misseri.
The Dolphins were play-
ing in what was the last of
seven home-opening games
played over the weekend at
their home field, Kinsmen
Park. The Dolphins were vic-
torious in five of the seven
games.
Next home game for the
Dolphins is Saturday, June
12 at 7 p.m. against the Steel
City Steelers from Hamilton.

AJAX-- Pickering Pirates Mike Minarik fouled off this pitch during the second game
of the Ontario Senior Select Baseball doubleheader against the Ajax Indians on
Saturday. Pickering won both games of a doubleheader 5-3 and 4-1.
All Stars face
Western at
Showcase
TORONTO -- The OUA All-
Stars hung on to defeat the
2009 OUA champion West-
ern Mustangs 4-3 in a 10-
inning contest at the fourth
annual OUA Baseball Show-
case last weekend at Rogers
Centre in Toronto.
And a couple of Pickering
players figured into the out-
come.
Brock University centre
fielder Matt Marinelli of
Pickering plated the win-
ning run for the all-stars in
the top of the 10th, scor-
ing on a throwing error by
pitcher Paul Lytwynec.
Lytwynec had tried to
throw out Marinelli at third
base after a bunt by Laurier
catcher Chris Pittaway, but
the wild throw allowed the
run.
Brock reliever Matt Mar-
tinow was credited with
the win, after pitching two
innings, while Lytwynec,
Western’s eighth pitcher of
the game, was charged with
the loss.
Western early pitch-
ing was right on the mark
though as they took a no-
hitter into the sixth inning
on the combined efforts of
three pitchers, including
Pickering’s Andrew Berg-
man, who started the game
and tossed two hitless
innings.
In his two innings Berg-
man struck out four batters,
including all three in the
second.
