Mr. Hendrick, who walks the route a couple of times a month, said cars will drive on the shoulder during rush hour in order to get into the turning lane. The City plans to install sidewalks along the length of Kingston Road within Pickering’s boundaries.Pickering wants more sidewalks KINGSTON ROAD WALKWAY TO BE ACCESSIBLE ‘FROM TORONTO TO AJAX’ KRISTEN CALIS kcalis@durhamregion.com PICKERING -- In the coming years, Pickering residents should be able to walk along Kings- ton Road comfortably and safely, from Toron- to to Ajax if they want to. It’s not uncommon to see mothers pushing strollers, cyclists walking bikes, residents with mobility issues using wheelchairs and people of all ages from seniors to youth walking along the unpaved shoulder on Pickering’s main street, Kingston Road. But council unanimously hopes that will change and the puzzle will soon be pieced together. Council has supported Ward 3 City Coun- cillor David Pickles’s motion that Pickering become connected from Toronto in the west to Ajax in the east with sidewalks, making the entire road accessible for pedestrians through- out Pickering.

Continuing Education Fall 2010 Course Calendar www.durhamcollege.ca/coned City considering plans for joint elementary-high school KRISTEN CALIS kcalis@durhamregion.com PICKERING -- Pickering could soon be home to a French combined elementary and high school. At a public information meeting Mon- day night, the planning department pre- sented plans for a combined elementary and secondary school east of Brock Road and north of Dellbrook Avenue. The plan is from the French language school board, Counseil scolaire de district du Centre- Sud-Ouest. “We’ve been looking for quite a while and we’re very happy with this site,” said Suzanne Labrecque, the school board’s director of building, maintenance and planning. The school will initially accommodate around 500 students (ideally 250 elemen- tary and 250 secondary) but the site will be designed to accept up to 1,000 stu- dents. It will also include a daycare facil- ity. The land is vacant except for a tempo- rary home sales trailer and is in accor- dance with the Region of Durham’s and Pickering’s official plans. The design is conceptual at the moment, but includes a two-storey school building, bus loading, parking and drop-off facili- ties, play areas, sports fields and outdoor ecological study areas. “The school board is very proud of its efforts to design schools sustainably,” said consultant Catherine Gravely, of Sorensen Gravely Lowes, Planning Associates Inc. She added the school board receives LEED certification on its buildings and includes initiatives such as planting native species to keep the area sustainable. There will be a single driveway access to the school from Brock Road at the north end of the site. Traffic and parking issues concerned members of council most. Mayor Dave Ryan, who supports the ini- tiative, noted Brock Road is a very busy major artery and said he wants to see a definite traffic component in the plans. “The daycare component alone demands private vehicles,” said Mayor Ryan. He suggested plans such as reducing the school footprint by building up instead of out to accommodate the vehicles, since traffic is a reality with schools. Ms. Gravely said traffic is often a concern when new schools are built, and they’ll take that into consideration throughout the planning process. Ward 1 City Councillor Jennifer O’Connell said she supports the initia- tive and hopes the board will perhaps negotiate with the City to build and share resources together on the property, such as a library, a recreation complex and soc- cer fields, since the area is expected to grow greatly in the future. This item came to the committee for information only. Council will make a decision on the proposal once all neces- sary studies and plans are complete. “I hope that we can go forward and we can open the school sooner rather than later,” said Durham French school board trustee Sylvie Landry, who also lives in Pickering. CITY HALL New French school could be built in Pickering We’ve been looking for quite a while and we’re very happy with this site. Suzanne Labrecque, Counseil scolaire de district du Centre-Sud- Ouest Library open in Esplanade Park three days in summer PICKERING -- The Pickering library will blend good books with the outdoors as a treat to its clients this summer. On three Mondays throughout the warm months the library will open its outdoor read- ing room at the gazebo in Esplanade Park, One The Esplanade. Staff will offer a collec- tion of summer books that clients can check out and take home. Chairs will be available for those who want to enjoy the outdoors and read in the shade. The outdoor reading room operates on July 19, July 26 and Aug. 9 from 1 to 4 p.m. For more information: CALL 905-831-6265 COMMUNITY Outdoor reading room available in Pickering durhamregion.comNews Advertiser • July 8, 20104 AP Cyclists stopped in Pickering Sunday KEITH GILLIGAN kgilligan@durhamregion.com PICKERING -- On the day the Tour de France began, a different bicycle tour also got underway. The Third Annual Great Waterfront Trail Adventure Tour rolled into Durham Region Sunday, stopping at the Esplanade Park in Pickering. The 260 riders stayed overnight, some camping in the park, and left for Cobourg Monday morning. The ride started July 3 at Niagara-on- the-Lake and ends on July 10 in Rivere Beaudette, Quebec, just past the Ontario border, near Cornwall. Marlaine Koehler, the executive direc- tor of the Waterfront Regeneration Trust, said raising awareness of the trail is the aim of the ride. “We want everyone to know about the waterfront trail and to use it,” she said. “We decided the best way to show them is take them out.” Riders range in age from seven to 78 and some came from as far away as New Zealand and Australia, plus almost every province in Canada, she noted. Ms. Koehler’s daughter, Cori Linetsky, 14, is taking part for the second year. “She was born the year after the trail first opened from Burlington to Trenton,” Ms. Koehler said. “Fourteen years later, my daughter is able to ride the trail on all these municipalities put together.” Cori said the ride is “awesome. The scenery is really nice. It’s pretty easy. It’s mostly on trails.” New Zealanders Susan and Don Wat- son, Robin and Jacque Porter and Jan Booysen found out about the ride on the Internet. “It’s Susan’s fault really” for the group’s decision to take part, Mr. Porter joked. “I used to like cycling.” “We were looking for something to do in Ontario,” Ms. Watson said. “It’s a good way to see smaller places.” Mr. Porter and his wife plan to stay at a few bed-and-breakfast places along the way, while the Watsons are camping each night. “On fun rides like this, you meet new people,” Ms. Watson noted. “Everyone is friendly.” Brendan Dwyer and Georgina De-Baak are from Australia. Mr. Dwyer, a lieuten- ant-colonel in the Australian army, has been stationed in Kingston since Janu- ary. “It’s a three-year posting and we’re try- ing to suck up everything Canada has to offer,” Mr. Dwyer said. “George found it.” “I Googled it,” Ms. De-Baak said. “We thought it would be the best way to see Ontario.” While in Canada, the couple plan to take part in other similar events. “We look forward to other bike rides we can find,” Mr. Dwyer said. “This one is a great way to see Ontario. It’s border to border. My job is to liaise with Canada. This is one way of doing that.” Heather and Richard Wenzel, of Bramp- ton, were taking part for the first time. “We like to ride with family a lot. It’s exciting. It’s something different for a vacation,” Ms. Wenzel said. “I tried to get some training in. Clearly, I didn’t do enough training,” she joked. Hector Bordenave, of Niagara Falls, is also taking part for the first time. “It’s a challenge for me. I turned 50 and I wanted to challenge myself. I figure a 750- kilometre ride would be a big challenge,” he said. “I’m loving every minute of it, so far.” The ride is also a chance to “see parts of towns you won’t see.” Anna Murre, of Beamsville, is riding with son Jacob, daughter Teresa and nephew John. However, she’s battling tendinitis in her left knee and that’s hampered her ability to ride. “I’m hoping it’s better tomorrow,” Ms. Murre said. “I thought it would be a good way to spend a week in the summer. It’s better than camping.” Mandy and Colin Johnson, of Ajax, have done the ride the last two years. This year, they did only the Hamilton to Pickering stage. “It’s a big world. There are lots of other trails to cycle,” Ms. Johnson said. “It’s an amazing, amazing ride. It’s a great way to see the province.” TRAIL TOUR Waterfront ride rolls through Durham WALTER PASSARELLA PHOTO PICKERING -- Kevin Maguire, of Bay Cycle, made a seat adjustment to a bike after cyclists involved in the Great Waterfront Trail Adventure arrived at Esplanade Park to rest for the night. durhamregion.comNews Advertiser • July 8, 20105 AP WE CARRY BODY PARTS MON-FRI 8AM-5:30PM SAT 8AM-2PM PICKERING LOCATION1648 BAYLY ST.

Durham police mark passing of officer DURHAM -- An honour guard was posted during visitation for a long-serving Durham police officer who died Monday. David Thomas Morrissey attained the rank of staff sergeant during a 35-year career in policing, the majority of it spent with the Durham Regional Police. He was retired, and died at age 56 following a lengthy illness. Mr. Morrissey began his career as a constable with Toronto police in 1975 and made the move to Dur- ham Region in 1979, serving as a front-line officer with B Platoon in Oshawa until 1982. He was assigned to the Ajax area for four years before returning to the beat in Oshawa. Mr. Morrissey was promoted to sergeant in Durham’s communications branch in 1993 and was once again back in Oshawa as sergeant of D Platoon in 1995. In 2003, he earned the rank of staff sergeant. Durham’s ceremonial unit stood as honour guard during visitation for Mr. Morrissey, and his passing was marked at stations throughout the region, Sergeant Nancy van Rooy said. A funeral was held today, Thurs- day, July 8, at Oshawa Funeral Home.

It is unfortunate that Richard Walli states “facts” about earlier warming periods without the appropriate references. I also question what the number of churches in Greenland has to do with CO2 levels. This is a specious argument not befitting a professor of engineering. What does he tell his clients? That their upgrades or ren- ovations won’t make a measurable differ- ence, so don’t bother? As a former zookeeper (1973-1990) and resident in Durham Region for 26 years, I have observed the degrading effects of toxic chemicals on nature in the Rouge Val- ley -- nothing “measured” but noticeable just the same. How many butterflies have you seen this year? When was the last time you heard any crickets? We all have to do something to reduce our footprint. Burn- ing our garbage isn’t the answer. We need a paradigm shift and a concerted effort to reduce our waste at the sources. “The longest journey starts with the first step.” Dave MacKay Ajax ENVIRONMENT We must take care of Earth To the editor: I am writing to you because I think keep- ing the world polluted is unhealthy for the Earth and us. I’m going to make a difference in the whole wide world.Stop using so much pol- lution for factories. Instead of driving your child to school, let them go to school on a bus. Don’t use the bad kind of gas, use the better kind of gas. And don’t litter. What about other people? Do unto oth- ers as you want them to do unto you. If you don’t take care of the Earth, you don’t deserve it. What about Jesus? He made us this glorious world. We can’t just not take care of Earth and go to Mars. There’s nothing to eat. Earth is the only place we can eat. So please, stop littering and take care of the world. Please, please, please don’t litter and take care of the world. We can’t eat aliens. Aliens are not real. And we would starve to death. Isabella Scudds Grade 2, St. Matthew Catholic School Whitby SAFETY Parents need to be vigilant to protect children To the editor: Re: ‘Children tumble from windows in separate Durham incidents’, June 5. Parents need to realize the importance of child-proofing. When I read that two children in Durham fell out of their windows on the same day I was shocked and intrigued. Intrigued to find out how these two chil- dren, who still need constant child super- vision, could reach a window. In one inci- dent, a bed was located under the window. This made me think about all of the sec- ond-floor windows in my house and I real- ized that nothing that could be climbed was ever underneath them. It was like this for a reason. It’s very important to know about how to prevent accidents like this from happen- ing because it is more common than most would think. Each year, about 4,700 chil- dren ages 14 and under are taken to hospi- tal for window-related accidents. It is also important to know that the screen on a window can be easily pushed out and should not be relied on when a child is left unattended. Hopefully both children recover and will not suffer from any head trauma. Parents should learn from these horrific incidents and child-proof their windows.

City councillors last week decided it was high time that the Hwy. 2 corridor - - Pickering’s main thoroughfare -- had continuous, safe sidewalks installed for all to use. The current patchwork has sections of sidewalk here, soft shoulders there and is both hazardous and estheti- cally unappealing. It’s not uncommon in Pickering to see forlorn bus passengers waiting in or near a shelter on the soft shoulder as traffic whizzes closely by at 80 km/h. One can routinely see young mothers pushing strollers, struggling in the dirt and casting wary glances at oncoming traffic. Pedestrians and cyclists must be on high alert as they walk or cycle. The plan, led by Ward 3 City Council- lor David Pickles, will see staff study the existing corridor, identify gaps and rec- ommend priorities in time for next year’s budget deliberations. Included in the staff study will be potential bike routes to encourage alter- nate forms of transportation within city limits. A safe, continuous sidewalk network from Toronto to Ajax will provide many benefits to Pickering residents, particu- larly if a bike lane component is includ- ed in the final plan. It will provide greater separation and safety for pedestrians. It will encourage exercise and fitness and get people out of their cars. It will provide an important link to our urban neigh- bours to the east and west in both practi- cal and esthetic terms. Finally, it will help connect businesses along Hwy. 2 with their customers and one another. Surely one of the primary characteristics of a successful communi- ty is a vibrant, active and connected main thoroughfare. Unfortunately, Pickering residents have come to see the stretch of Hwy. 2 in Pickering -- particularly between Whites and Brock roads -- as a ribbon of asphalt that simply carries cars hither and yon as they travel through the city. They don’t see it -- though they should -- as a ‘main’ street that is home to local businesses, merchants and amenities. As Ward 1 City Councillor Jenni- fer O’Connell noted in her support of the new sidewalk network, Kingston Road and sidewalks affect every ward in Pickering. Let’s get moving on this much-needed project. durhamregion.comNews Advertiser • July 8, 20107 P “The vision is to have safe, continuous sidewalks on both sides of Kingston Road, our main street, from Toronto to Ajax,” said Coun. Pickles. Staff will prepare an inventory of the sidewalk network on Kingston Road and a plan identifying gaps and deficiencies in the network, will consider bike routes, and recommend priorities to council in time for the 2011 budget. Ward 2 Regional Councillor Bill McLean pointed out the lack of sidewalks along the road from Whites Road to Liverpool Road. “It scares the heck out of me to see trucks and cars whiz by, getting so close to these people,” he said. The sidewalk won’t be linked immediate- ly, but the plan will help the City budget for an earlier completion rather than the cur- rent piecemeal approach of creating side- walks alongside development. All members of council agreed. “There are few things council agrees on unanimously but Kingston Road and side- walks affect every ward,” said Ward 1 City Councillor Jennifer O’Connell. Ward 1 Regional Councillor Bonnie Lit- tley had similar thoughts. “It’s dangerous and we definitely need to do something about that,” she said, refer- ring to often seeing a woman pushing a stroller on the shoulder near Walnut Lane. Coun. O’Connell appreciated bike lanes being listed in the motion, and suggested putting in clear and distinct bike lanes, such as using curbs rather than simple lines. “We’ve seen that bike lanes don’t get used if it’s simply a line painted on a shoul- der,” she said. Ward 3 Regional Councillor Rick Johnson expressed difficulty with using taxpayers’ money for something that development charges should fund, but said he would support the initiative because the sidewalk is needed and the bottom line is safety and accessibility. Coun. Pickles said the City has wait- ed long enough for the sidewalks to be improved along the regional road, and added some areas without sidewalks, such as the south side of Kingston Road close to Denmar Road, will most likely never be developed and could never get a sidewalk if the City doesn’t take initiative. “We’re just going to have to bite the bullet and do it,” he said. If staff comes back with a three- to five- year plan, that will allow the City to set aside money each year and get Pickering on its way to having a fully accessible side- walk for all, he said.

Councillor David Pickles PICKERING from page 1 KINGSTON ROAD Pickering councillors unanimous in sidewalk support Activities planned for July and August PICKERING -- Every Thursday this sum- mer, pioneers at the Pickering Museum Village will offer all kinds of arts, crafts and games for kids. In July and August, the museum, at 2365 Concession Rd. 6, will host its Kids in the Village Heritage Games and Craft program. Parents and children can spend mornings playing heritage games and participating in hands-on craft activities. The program is ideal for children from preschool age to 12 and runs from 10 a.m. to noon. Crafts will include making cotton ball sheep on July 8, dream catchers on July 15, paper quilts on July 22 and miniature ticks and feather pillows on July 29. One of the games, Blind Man’s Bluff, which is basically a version of tag, dates as far back as ancient Greece. It was also popular in the Victorian era and offers great exercise for the kids. There is no pre-registration required for the program, but groups with six or more children should call ahead of time to ensure supplies are available to accommodate them. Participants are welcome to pack a lunch to enjoy once the program is fin- ished, and to take a tour of the museum village.

The new legislation, which took effect July 1, is an attempt to prevent youths from getting hooked on tobacco products with brightly coloured packaging and fla- vours such as cherry, bubble gum, fruit punch and pina colada. “These products are clearly aimed at kids,” said Oshawa MP Colin Carrie, who worked on the issue with the House of Commons’ standing committee on health and safety. “We know that if kids don’t start smoking by the time they’re 18, it’s very unlikely they will become lifetime smokers.” The legislation was passed in October after receiving support from all political parties. Retailers have had the past nine months to remove the products from their shelves. Store owners caught selling fla- voured smoking products will now be subject to fines. The new legislation also creates mini- mum package requirements for cigarel- los, small cigars and blunt wraps, which, unlike regular cigarettes, could previously be sold in singles or small packs of three or five. While young people likely could afford to buy a single cigar, Mr. Carrie said mini- mum packaging will make the products more cost prohibitive. An estimated 400 million units of fla- voured tobacco products were sold in Canada in 2007. “Tobacco products flavoured with candy, ice cream and fruit flavours can be a trigger for children who would never otherwise start smoking,” said Jane Ling, president of Central East Association for Smoking Elimination. “Smoking is a chronic addiction that is very hard to beat. If we can help young people from ever starting, we can make huge inroads in prevention of cancer, COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease) and other diseases associated with smoking.” The Durham Region Health Department is also praising the legislation. Cynthia Rogers, a public health nurse, said it works on two fronts -- prevent- ing youth from picking up the habit and curbing those who are already occasional smokers. “Tobacco companies are so limited in what they can do as far as advertising, the only two routes to attract new smokers are movie placements and making products with flavours that kids like,” she noted. “It’s a way of getting around the marketing laws. The flavours also mask the harsh- ness and taste of the tobacco for kids.” The United Way of Ajax-Pickering-Uxbridge and United Way of Oshawa, Whitby, Clarington, Brock & Scugog are working closely and productively towards the formation of the United Way Durham Region. Support from the community through stakeholder communications, meetings and consultations reinforce the vision that a single United Way will benefi t all Durham Region. Take Notice that the special meeting (the “Meeting”) of the members of United Way of Ajax- Pickering-Uxbridge (the “Corporation”) will be held at Ontario Power Generation, Information Centre - Auditorium, 1675 Montgomery Park Road, Pickering, Ontario at the hour of 7:00 p.m. on Tuesday, July 27, 2010 for the following purposes: 1.

But our motivation only seems to kick in with the start of summer. There’s nothing like warm weather to encourage us to get out- doors, even if it’s only to begin a walking program. As with any new exercise, if you are over the age of 35, you should get a medical evaluation before beginning. A great way to ease into an exercise routine is to start walk- ing. Walking not only burns fat, it tightens muscles and lowers lipoprotein cholesterol levels. Our walking rate as we go about our daily activities is approximately three miles per hour. The average person should walk at a pace of about one third faster (four miles per hour) to reach a desired exercise heart rate. We need to protect our feet, therefore a good walking shoe is very important. It should provide the most ﬂ ex- ibility at the middle of the sole. While walking your feet do not require the same impact protection as when you are running, so your soles do not have to be thick. Before you begin walking, it is always a good idea to start with at least ﬁ ve minutes of stretching exercises. Af- ter you stretch, begin walking slowly. Do so for about ﬁ ve minutes to increase your heart rate. Then walk briskly for about 25-30 minutes decrease in speed to cool down and then ﬁ ve minutes of stretching to prevent stiffness and increase ﬂ exibility. Never wear ankle weights. They will put pressure on your joints that evolution never antici- pated and are sure to cause future problems. Safe walking is great for all ages. Here are some sum- mer exercise tips to get you ready for your warm weather wardrobe: 1. Dress appropriately for the temperature. Wear light coloured loose ﬁ tting clothes. Always wear a hat with a visor and use sunscreen with an SPF of a least 15. 2. Drink a lot of water before during and after the walk. Don’t wait until you are thirsty, by then it’s too late and you may already be dehydrated. 3. Give yourself time to adapt to warmer weather. Ex- ercising in the summer heat puts more strain on the body than in cooler temperatures. 4. Walk in the morning or early evening when it’s cool- er and trafﬁ c is lighter. 5. Make sure you are visible when walking at night. The greatest threat to the health of a walker is an inatten- tive driver. Wear bright clothing with reﬂ ective tape on your arms, front and back. Also carry a ﬂ ashlight. 6. Avoid busy streets. Carry only enough money for a phone call or emergencies. 7. Obey the rules of the road. Walk facing trafﬁ c where there are no sidewalks. Like any form of exercise, walking should be done in moderation, every other day. If you are concerned about the weather outside, you can always mall walk. Most malls are open early in the morning, and are a perfect temperature. Just think; you won’t have to worry about a pet owner who neglected to scoop their poop.

SABRINA BYRNES / METROLAND OSHAWA -- Amanda Kraft, 11 and Sarah Matesic, 12, anxiously watched the 2010 FIFA World Cup semifinal match between Germany and Spain, at Club Loreley in Oshawa. Spain defeated Germany 1-0 to advance to the finals against the Netherlands. German fans watch as their team falls to Spain in World Cup semifinal SHAWN CAYLEY scayley@durhamregion.com OSHAWA -- It was a devastating afternoon for local soccer fans at Oshawa’s Club Loreley on Wednesday. A large group, young and old, gathered at the club on Dean St. and watched as their beloved Germans dropped a 1-0 semifinal decision to No. 2 ranked Spain, ending their World Cup championship dreams. The lone goal of the game came with 16 min- utes to go in the second half on a beauty header in front by Spain’s Carlos Puyol. What had been a loud and enthusiastic crowd up until then sat relatively quiet and devastated. The most bitter aspect of it all for German fans, according to 23 year old Alex Kadykalo, was the realization that after making it down to the club for every German game of the tourna- ment, plans to attend Sunday’s final have to be aborted. “The toughest part is coming all this way and not having it happen,” he said, surrounded by a group of friends just moments after the game went final. “I’ve been a German supporter all my life and I’ve seen them come so close every single time. It’s tough. I’ve been here every time there has been a game and knowing we can’t come back here Sunday to watch the game is tough.” Kadykalo’s fascination with the German team, which was ranked No. 6 in the world heading into the tournament, derives from his grandpar- ents cheering interests, he says, while also not- ing that attending a World Cup game in Detroit back in 1994 also helped hook him on the sport. While Kadykalo and the rest of the German supporters left disappointed, it was the polar opposite emotion from when they arrived. Many people had made their way into the club long before the 2:30 p.m. eastern start. Young and old, the German fans strolled in sporting their team jerseys, waving the smaller hand-held flags and even one younger man was draped in a full size flag. The team spirit didn’t end with the flags, either. Some wore scarfs despite the hot and sticky weather conditions and others were rock- ing the face paint. And showing allegiances to their team on that front was just the tip of the iceberg. From the moment the game started the fans were glued to the large projection screen located at the south end of the club and hung on every move at both ends of the field, screaming and cheering at the two teams. The optimism found in those cheers quick- ly disappeared though roughly 16 minutes to in the second half when moments after a great Germany chance at the offensive end, Puyol connected on the header to break the scoreless tie. “You know what? I figured it would be 1-0. It was a defensive struggle the whole game,” said onlooker James Summers. “What are you going to do? The refereeing was OK today. It wasn’t one-sided like it sometimes can be. They lost and you have to take the good with the bad.” Spain will play the Netherlands, ranked No. 4 in the world, in the final after they knocked off Uruguay on Tuesday.

HIGH SCHOOL St. Mary honours top athletes CANOE Strong showing for Rouge at Dominion Day Regatta Club wins six gold medals at competition DURHAM -- The West Rouge Canoe Club had its strongest showing in years, winning six gold medals at the Dominion Day Regatta held annually on Centre Island. Leading the way for the Rouge contingent was Taylor Potts, who won the women’s canoe singles (C- 1) and who also stroked the mixed war canoe to victory in the final race of the day. The triumphs capped an impressive week for Potts, who recently returned home from a second-place showing at the Ontario team trials in Ottawa in late June. These results bode well for her as she prepares for the Pan American trials which will be held on the weekend of July 17 in Montreal. “I’m pleased with the way I raced today, and I learned some things that I can improve for next time,” Potts said after her race. Potts was one of several victorious Rouge racers at the Dominion Day event. Brian Williamson surged ahead in the last 100m to claim the men’s canoe singles and Erin Skitch led wire to wire to win the women’s kayak singles. Richard Freeland brought the crowd to its feet with his win in the paddleall kayak division, and Scott Barclay, who, like Potts, posted several personal bests at the Ontario trials, teamed with Mark Dalgar- no, Mike Krem and Darren Mossman in the four-men kayak and prevailed over a fast-charging crew from Mississauga. Coach Mike Krem was pleased with the results. “I’m really thrilled that the hard work these ath- letes have put in all year is beginning to pay off,” Krem said. “It should give them confidence going forward to our divisional trials.” Krem also saw good things ahead for the club. “What I’m most excit- ed about is that Taylor, Erin, Scott and Mark are now part of our coach- ing staff,” Krem remarked. “Our bantam members (athletes aged 9-14) have the chance to learn from and be mentored by ath- letes who know firsthand what it takes to be a cham- pion and who truly love all aspects of the sport. It bodes well for the future of our club.” It’s not too late to join the Rouge for their suc- cessful 2010 campaign.

The teams included kids aged 7-9 in the Rookie League from the Pickering Baseball Association. CHARITY GOLF Donald Sanderson golf tournament set to tee it up Second annual event is July 14 DURHAM -- Even after his trag- ic passing, Donald Sanderson is doing his part to mentor the future athletes and leaders of tomorrow. The young hockey player, who passed away Jan. 2, 2009 after sustaining a head injury while playing for the Whitby Dunlops, is having money raised in his honour for the awareness and education of brain trauma, as well as to support young leaders in their education. On Wednesday, July 14, the second annual Donald Sand- erson Celebrity Cup will see friends, family, and celebrities join as one to enjoy a day of golf at Royal Ashburn Golf Club. The cost is $250 per person, which includes golf, cart, lunch, dinner and a gift with a value of more than $110 for each golfer. Reg- istration on the day of the tour- nament will be at 11 a.m., with a shotgun start to follow at 1 p.m. From the NHL Alumni, a num- ber of players will be playing, including Dave Reid, Ron Tug- nutt, Steve Larmer, Curtis Foster and Kris King. If you want to help out in any way there are a number of ways to get involved including spon- soring golfers, sending gift cer- tificates from your business as prizes, submitting items from your business for the silent auc- tion, volunteering at the tour- nament, or even golfing in the tournament.
