Walter Heeney and his wife Catherine didn’t know exactly what life would have in store for them, and especially for their baby girl, Jan, when they learned she had Down syndrome. “Thirty-five years later, it’s the best thing that’s ever happened,” Mr. Heeney said. Mr. Heeney is now president of the Durham Down Syndrome Association and he wants more people to get involved in the non-prof- it charitable organization, and utilize the pro- grams and services it offers. DDSA offers a number of resources and pro- grams such as parent support, special events like parties, teen dances, family picnics, swim parties, monthly meetings, newsletters, and new parent visits.

The 17-year-old girls told Durham police they were walking through a parking lot on Steeple Hill near Kingston Road short- ly after 3 a.m. when they were approached by a man who showed them a gun tucked in his pants and demanded money. He fled when the girls told him they had no cash. He’s described as a white man in his late teens who’s 5 feet 9, clean shaven with brown eyes and blond hair in a brush cut. He wore a black ball cap, a white T-shirt and black pants.

It’s getting to the point where they just can’t figure out what to do with them anymore.” The cats, ranging from five months to 10 years old, typically turn up at the shelter after their owners move out of a house or apart- ment and leave them behind. Animal cruelty investigator Debby Hough- ton said she has received several calls over the past week from landlords across the region who discovered cats left behind by former tenants. One vacant apartment in Oshawa alone contained six cats. “There are a whole slew of reasons why they do it, whether it’s due to finances or they just simply decide they don’t want to look after them anymore,” Ms. Hough- ton said. Some of the animals had been left for as long as two weeks and because they are considered in distress, shelter staff has no choice but to bring them into care, she added. “It is a criminal offence to leave an animal in distress without food or water.” The humane society’s temporary build- ing in Oshawa was designed to house 65 cats but the actual number is about 110 cats with more coming in every day. “We just don’t even have cage space to put all the cats so, right now, the ones that we feel can get along with other animals are kind of just roaming in the shelter,” Ms. Richards said. “It’s a crisis in Durham right now, the number of cats that are unwanted -- whether they’re abandoned or dumped on the side of the road -- and it’s just heartbreaking.” Humane society staff is asking for help from the public to adopt the cats. The tempo- rary shelter is at 79 Taunton Rd. W. Unit 1 in Oshawa.

Ruby Richards, Durham Humane Society SABRINA BYRNES / METROLAND OSHAWA -- Ruby Richards, public relations coordi- nator/manager with the Humane Society of Durham Region, held two cats in the temorary shelter on Taunton Road on July 6. The shelter is overflowing with cats of late. durhamregion.comNews Advertiser • July 9, 20105 P The organization was going to amalgamate with the Down Syndrome Association of Peterborough, but the new president has learned there are enough resources to keep DDSA alive and independent. “I think what we can do here is we can revitalize the association, get some programs going, pay for some things, get people active,” Mr. Heeney said. But there is a gap in the people who utilize the ser- vice. There seems to be few parents with children born in the past 10 years using DDSA. Strange, especially considering around one in every 800 babies born has Down syndrome, accord- ing to Mr. Heeney. “They’re the group we’re trying to get,” he said. The group has met at Iroquois Park in Whitby and is already planning a number of activities, such as a pottery weekend in Pickering and a bowling camp in Oshawa, both in August. “They’re not youngsters, they’re not children, they just need things to do,” he said. According to the Canadian Down Syndrome Soci- ety, people with Down syndrome are now living beyond 55, completing high school, are getting bet- ter job skills and gaining meaningful employment. Too often, the website said, it’s low expectations that yield low performance. “Children with special needs do a whole bunch of things,” Mr. Heeney said. His daughter, for example, does gymnastics, and everyday activities such as hanging out with fam- ily and friends, watching television, going to movies and works at the library at Our Lady of the Bay Cath- olic School. Jan does this on a volunteer basis, but others get paid and work independently, or work with a coach, Mr. Heeney said. Pickering resident Ashley Ferguson, for example, holds a paying job at Wendy’s in Pickering. Others, Mr. Heeney said, participate in different types of sports, and often participate in the Special Olympics. It’s time parents get their children involved in activities, and prepare them to enter the work world, rather than just giving the children pity parties, he said. “Let’s get them doing something,” he said. DDSA has organized a two-day bowling camp fea- turing Special Olympics athletes in Oshawa on Aug. 9 and 10, and registration is now open. The cost is $20 to register. A membership costs $20. For meeting dates and times, payment methods, upcoming events, general information or to donate visit the website or call Mr. Heeney.

All content copyright A few good families needed to aid Durham Humane Society Cats are being abandoned in Durham at a disturbing rate this summer, forc- ing the humane society to take extreme measures in providing care. The Durham Humane Society -- still picking up the pieces and preparing for the future following a devastating fire at its facility in 2008 -- is asking local resi- dents to consider adopting some of the more than 100 felines currently crowd- ing its temporary headquarters. Humane society officials are meeting their obligations for care, but will face an ongoing, difficult challenge if animals continue to be abandoned at this rate. The temporary and crammed humane society facility comfortably has room for just 65 cats. According to officials, cats are being left behind in apartments when tenants move; some are left at the side of rural roads; others are dumped at the door- step of the humane society. In short, it’s appalling. Pet owners who, for myriad reasons, abandon their pets likely do so with the belief that they will be cared for by agen- cies such as the humane society. But if their actions -- or lack of action -- leaves an animal in distress they could face criminal charges. But there is also a moral obligation for pet owners to ensure that animals in their care are provided the basic neces- sities. As the crisis deepens for staff at the humane society, we encourage Dur- ham Region residents to help ease the pressure and consider adopting one of the abandoned animals and provide a loving new home. Shelter staff can provide knowledge- able advice on care, information on the potential adoptee and a supportive environment for pet owners who have questions. By adopting these abandoned ani- mals, Durham residents will serve a pos- itive dual purpose: they’ll ease the strain on the humane society’s existing tempo- rary facility and provide a home to a cat that might otherwise face a bleak, insti- tutional existence. Furthermore, it will allow humane society officials to focus on developing and preparing for its new facility. It’s heartbreaking to think that domes- tic animals can be so callously left behind, and in such large numbers. Shame on those who abandoned their pets -- and their responsibilities -- for the sake of convenience or expediency, or both. But Durham Region residents have answered the call in the past to face the challenge. We hope more will consid- er taking action and help provide new homes and new lives for these otherwise unwanted pets. Being a reporter is generally enjoyable, but every now and then a plum assignment gets doled out. Sports reporter Shawn Cayley (@Shawn- Cayley) got one this week when he head- ed off to Club Loreley, Oshawa’s German- Canadian Club, to tweet the agony and ecstasy of the much-anticipated World Cup semi-final between Spain and Germany. While Shawn got to watch the game live, many of us lived through him vicarious- ly, simply following on Twitter. With both North and South American soccer fans on company time while the big games were on, many of us had no choice but to follow the action online. World Cup-related words and phras- es trend daily on Twitter. When Italy was booted, it was Ciao Italia trending; before the Netherlands’ big game against Brazil it was Hup Holland Hup. In fact, if you used the appropriate tag for your favourite country, such as #ESP for Spain, a little flag would appear in your post. During games, Twitter provided a link to a dedicated feed of World Cup related tweets allowing fans to follow along. The instant nature of Twitter proved so popular during big games that service was noticeably slow and the fail whale, denot- ing that Twitter is down, made frequent appearances. During Japan’s 3-1 win over Denmark, Twitter broke a record with 3,283 tweets per second. That broke a record set a week before during the Lakers-Celtics NBA final. And it’s not just fans and journalists tweet- ing, the players themselves get into the action. Brazilian superstar Kaka (@RealKa- ka) has 1.2 million followers and he tweets in both English and Portuguese. His tweet- ing slowed while he was playing for his country, but picked up again after he got back home. Keeping mum about the birth of his son until after his team was eliminat- ed, Portugal’s Cristiano Ronaldo (@Cristia- no) took to Twitter and Facebook to make the big announcement. Perhaps my favourite social media site for World Cup content has been YouTube. The best of World Cup past and present was posted by fans. Maicon’s physics-defy- ing goal against North Korea? Online. The USA’s mystifyingly disallowed goal against Algeria? Online. Luis Suarez’s infamous handball against Ghana? Check it out on YouTube. While you’re at it, why not revis- it Thierry Henry’s so-called Hand of Frog which allowed France to beat Ireland in qualifying or the original, Diego Mara- dona’s 1986 Hand of God against England. The most popular 11-second clip of that has 3.6 million views. From the same game, check out Mara- dona’s Goal of the Century where he beats five English players plus the goalie. And then when you start watching great goals, why stop? Highlight reels themed around players, premier league teams and coun- tries abound. This Sunday marks the end of the world’s best display of the beautiful game, but before then there’s still time to log on and join the global party. -- Contact Ajax reporter Reka Szekely on Facebook, follow her on Twitter @rszekely or e-mail her at rszekely@durhamregion.com Passionate supporter tweets help World Cup score big online Reka Szekely durhamregion.comNews Advertiser • July 9, 20107 AP durhamregion.comNews Advertiser • July 9, 20108 AP 4"-& 8JMM:PV#F3FBEZ'PSUIF/FYU)FBU8BWF $BMM/PX )FBUJOH"JS$POEJUJPOJOH&45 XXXDVMMFOIFBUJOHBOEBJSDPN HHH 3JUTPO3E4 0TIBXB 50--'3&& '3&&:ST1BSUT-BCPVS'3&&8JOUFS$PWFS :&"3/0*/5&3&45 /01":.&/540"$ PSQVUJUPO ZPVSHBTCJMM$"--'03%&5"*-4PS'03"'3&&&45*."5& 0//&8"*3$0/%*5*0/*/(6/*5403'63/"$&4 (07&3/.&/53&#"5&445*--"7"*-"#-&0/4&&36/*541MFBTFJORVJSF 3FBEFST$IPJDF"XBSE8JOOJOH$PNQBOZ #FTU'JSFQMBDF#FTU)FBUJOH"JS$POEJUJPOJOH$P $BMM 4&&3"JS$POEJUJPOJOHVOJUTPOTBMF JOTUBMMFE Join us every Tuesday and join in the fun Every Tuesd a y 8AM - 12 No on All Rapid Reward Members All Rapid Reward Members 50+ will receive;50+ will receive; ●● 2 for 1 Breakfast off er2 for 1 Breakfast off er** ●● Free Weekly Gift Free Weekly Gift**** ●● Ballot to Win Ballot to Win $250.00 CASH $250.00 CASH****** *Breakfast from 8:00-9:45 AM.

A Pickering Farmers’ Market will not operate this summer, and the school-based farmers’ markets are waiting for zoning approval from the City. So starting July 12, local farmers will set up shop at the Uni- versity of Toronto Scarborough Campus, 41265 Military Trail, to cater to Scarborough and Pickering residents, said James Blair, co- founder of the Durham Culinary Association. The association’s goal is to pro- vide fresh, locally grown food pro- duced as close to Durham commu- nities as possible, as well as educat- ing the urban community about local food issues. The market only sells locally grown produce, and farmers uti- lizing the market must use as little fossil fuel as possible for energy, respect biodiversity on their farm landscapes and create a safe envi- ronment for human labourers and livestock. The market kicks off on June 12 from 3 to 7:30 p.m. and runs each Monday until Oct. 25.

As long as grilling has been around, myths have circulated about this popular means to preparing a meal. Let’s set the re- cord straight. Myth: You have to clean the grill right after cooking. Fact: It really doesn’t matter when you clean the grill, just that it gets cleaned. Many peo- ple rely on grilled food as a quick method of cooking. If company is over, it’s perfectly alright to leave the grill uncleaned. Just do it the next time you light the ﬁ re. Simply turn on the heat, let it warm up for about 10 min- utes to allow the ﬂ ames to burn off any food particles and loosen up the rest. Then go over the grates with a wire brush. Remaining oils from foods help season the metal grat- ing and ﬂ avor the next round of food. Myth: Eating grilled food causes cancer. Fact: This myth is based on a study in which rats were fed heavily charred food that was cooked on a grill. Charred food can contain benz-pyrenes, which are carcinogenic. How- ever, the rats were only served the charred food and in high amounts -- something that would be unlikely for people to consume. Eating grilled food as part of a balanced diet is unlikely to cause cancer. If you are concerned about benz-pyrenes, grill lean meats that are less likely to cause ﬂ are-ups and charring on the foods. Some marinades can also reduce the amount of charring that occurs. Myth: Grilling and barbecuing are the same thing. Fact: Actually, they’re not. Grilling cooks food over high heat for a short duration of time. Barbecuing uses low, indirect heat to cook foods, generally all day or even over- night. Grilling is used for foods that would dry out if cooked for a long time. Less ex- pensive, tougher cuts of meat can be barbe- cued, such as brisket. Myth: Grills require special cleaning to prevent bacteria. Fact: Concern about foodborne illnesses is very real. Bacteria can lead to stomach dis- comfort and other symptoms. However, it is not necessary to sterilize your grill. The high heat used to cook the food essentially does that work for you. Allowing your grill to preheat and cleaning it regularly will be all the precaution you need to prevent bacteria. Myth: You need to coat foods in oil to prevent sticking. Fact: Generally cleaning your grill and al- lowing the grating to season will be enough to prevent sticking of foods. Also, allow meats to cook thoroughly on one side before attempting to ﬂ ip to avoid sticking. If stick- ing is still a problem, a light coating of cook- ing oil or nonstick spray applied to the grill grates can help.

Co-directed by Ajax celeb- rity Farley Flex, the event is designed to bring Durham’s various cultural communities together. It will showcase and celebrate the many cultures that have found a home in Durham through four key pillars: arts and crafts, food and beverage, music and dance, and sports and recreation. The Durham Internation- al Festival is July 16 to 18 at Lakeview Park, at the foot of Simcoe Street on the Lake Ontario waterfront. “We’re not a melting pot like the States, we’re more of a mosaic,” Flex says. “The festival is about geo- graphic and ethnocultural inclusion.” While the event is in Oshawa, with Mayor John Gray slated to open the festi- val and welcome visitors at 4 p.m. on July 16, Flex stresses that the festival is for everyone in Durham Region, from Brock to Pickering and Clarington. “Lakeview Park and Oshawa are the host community, but this is a Durham initiative,” he says. Flex and co-director Jon Sarpong plan to have the festival in Durham every year. How it takes shape remains to be seen. Flex says the options include moving the event to anoth- er park next year or having it remain at Lakeview Park, with events also occurring at other spots in the region. An advisory board is in place and still evolving. Flex says Pickering resident Shashi Bhatia, chairwoman of the Indo-Canadian Cultural Association of Durham, is a member and the Community Develop- ment Council of Durham is an event partner. The festival is, in a sense, Flex’s answer to a question he posed to himself after arriving in Ajax from Scarborough 14 years ago and experiencing the “evolving” demographics of Dur- ham Region: ‘how are newcomers wel- comed to Durham Region?’ As for the four pillars, Flex says “all of these elements unto themselves are amazing identifiers of culture and heri- tage.” In addition to cultural performanc- es, food and a marketplace, the festival features cricket and soccer matches. Each evening at 7 p.m. there’s a themed concert: R and B/hip hop on July 16, rock/ pop on July 17 and reggae/soca/world beat on the final day of the festival, July 18. Recording artist Najjah Calibur, also from Ajax, is among the performers taking the stage for the July 16 concert. He quit a prom- ising soccer career for music and says rock, reggae, funk, blues and hip hop are all influences. “My music is feel good music,” he says. “I’m always the guy who’s trying to pick you up when you’re down. I’m a very positive person; I’m a high-spirited guy.” See for yourself by check- ing out his video, Ups and Downs, on You- Tube. A new single, So Far (It’s Been a Pleasure) is slated for an August release, with an album to fol- low. A former mem- ber of Blues Under- dog, Calibur opened for Black Eyed Peas across Canada and has played virtually every major music festival in the country. He also has a radio show, Najjah’s World, on www.indielove.ca Thursdays at 9 p.m. Flex says it would be “exclusionary” to charge admission to the festival, so everything, with the exception of food and marketplace items, is free. durhamregion.comNews Advertiser • July 9, 201019 AP Mike Ruta Entertainment Editor mruta@durhamregion.com durhamregion.comEntertainment SPECIAL EVENTS Durham International Festival in Oshawa next weekend Town of Ajax, News Advertiser short story contest under way It’s a jungle out there; tell us all about it AJAX -- Welcome to the jungle.

SPECTACLE Cirque du Soleil coming to Durham this fall Eight shows at GM Centre in Oshawa DURHAM -- Residents can pre- pare to be captivated this fall as Cirque du Soleil makes its grand debut in Durham with eight per- formances scheduled in Oshawa. The newest Cirque arena show, Dralion, will be hitting the stage at the General Motors Centre, bring- ing a cast of 52 world-class acro- bats, gymnasts, musicians, singers and comedic characters. Starting out as a group of 20 street performers in 1984, Cirque du Soleil is now an internation- ally known Quebec-based organi- zation that provides artistic enter- tainment for all ages. Already seen by more than 8 million people worldwide since its premiere in 1999, Dralion is the fusion of ancient Chinese cir- cus traditions and the avant-garde style of Cirque du Soleil. The eight performances are Nov. 24 to 28 at the General Motors Centre, 99 Athol St. E. in Oshawa. Tickets range from $35 to $99 for adults, $28 to $80 for children 12 and under and $31.50 to $85.50 for military, seniors and students. Tickets go on sale July 19 at 11 a.m. at the General Motors box office, by phone at 1-877-436- 8811 or online at www.general- motorscentre.com. They can also be purchased at the United Way information kiosk at the Oshawa Centre.

The Ajax resi- dent will visit Spain and Singapore, with a chance to also play in France. KITCHENER -- A chance to move out of the basement of the Major Series Lacrosse league standings eluded the Ajax- Pickering Rock on Tuesday night. Travelling to the Waterloo Rec Com- plex to face the Kitchener-Waterloo Kodiaks, the Rock couldn’t muster any offence in the third period as a 5-5 tie through two periods resulted in an 8-5 loss. The home side scored three unanswered goals in the final 20 minutes. The Rock trailed the entire night, but also battled back to stay close. After falling behind 2-0 in the first period, the Rock squared things at two all, only to fall back 5-2 in the second, resulting in another comeback to bring the score to a 5- 5 tie before the end of the period. Jonas Derks, Bryan Johnson, Kiel Dona- hue, Bill McLean and Jason Mainer had the goals for the Rock, who fell to 2-9-0 on the season. The next couple of outings for the Rock will prove tough with a home-and-home against Peterborough scheduled for Thurs- day (after our deadline) in Peterborough and back in Ajax Friday at 8 p.m. BRAD KELLY bkelly@durhamregion.com AJAX -- With school out and summer holi- days greeting students, Dakota Whyte won’t be spending her time the traditional way, sitting on a dock at a cottage. Instead, the Ajax resident will be trav- elling the world, with Spain and Singa- pore definite destinations, and a jaunt over to France also a possibility. It’s all part of being named to the Cadette Women’s National Team as well as Canada’s first ever 3-on-3 basketball squad. It will be a hectic couple of months, but Whyte isn’t com- plaining at all. In fact, she wouldn’t have it any other way. “I feel really blessed that I got this opportunity at such a young age,” she said from Mis- sissauga earlier this week while attending a training camp before heading out to Spain on Wednes- day. “I just want to make the best out of it and do the best I can for Canada. I’m hoping this is just the beginning of me playing national level basketball. “I hope that I keep with it and make more teams.” The 15 year old was one of 28 players from across the coun- try to attend a tryout in hopes of cracking the Canadian ros- ter that will compete at the inaugural FIBA U17 World Championship in France. The camp was also used to determine the four players to comprise Canada’s first ever 3-on-3 squad that will be entered in the FIBA com- petition at the Youth Olympic Games in Singapore. The competition to garner spots on the teams was fierce, says Whyte, who was fortunate enough to make both teams. “Usually I’m used to being one of the best players on the team. I can just fly through things,” she says. “But this is different because you are going against the top point guards and you don’t want to mess up. You want to do good every single time you are out there. You have to work extra hard.” Whyte is an alternate on the world championship team that is in Spain to play an exhibition tournament against the host country, the United States and Australia. If a rostered player currently out with a wrist injury returns to the roster, Whyte will return home; if not, she will accompany the team to France for the world champi- onships from July 16-25. Canada opens the tournament on July 16 against Turkey. Other countries in their pool include France, Japan, Russia and the United States. The tournament features the best players 17 and younger from 12 countries around the world. While that trip hasn’t been confirmed as yet, the stu- dent at Notre Dame Catholic Secondary School will be off to Singapore in August for the inaugural Youth Olympic Games for the 3-on-3 tournament. Running from Aug. 14-25, Canada has been placed in a pool with Korea, Vanuatu, Ivory Coast and Russia. While exciting, there is also a little trepidation on Whyte’s part with being away so much this summer. “I’ve had a couple of breakdowns missing family,” she says of the work leading up to making the teams. “It’s a long process. There’s lots of practices, with no breaks. But, it’s what I have to go through.” The experience is going to be an invaluable one for Whyte, who knows it will make her a better player in the future, and hopefully lead her to a scholarship in the United States that she covets after high school gradua- tion in a couple of years. “I’m hoping this experience will bring my basketball IQ and everything to the next level for when I get back to high school and club season,” she says.durhamregion.comNews Advertiser • July 9, 201021 APSportsBrad Kelly Sports Editor bkelly@durhamregion.com durhamregion.com facebook.com/sportsdurhamregion twitter.com/scnewsdurham BASKETBALL Everything right with Whyte Ajax resident will spend most of summer touring the world with Canadian basketball program MAJOR SERIES LACROSSE Rock fall to Kitchener-Waterloo durhamregion.comNews Advertiser • July 9, 201022 AP RYAN PFEIFFER / METROLAND Looking to make a play PICKERING -- West Durham Rock player Dalton Strongman tried to evade a Clarington Green Gaels defender during an Ontario Lacrosse Association novice game at Don Beer Arena on Monday. Major bantams beat archrival Whitby Red 10-2 in final game PICKERING -- The Pickering Red Sox major bantams made the trip to Niagara Falls a worth- while one, winning the Greater Niagara Baseball Association tournament championship with a convincing victory in the final game. Pickering came out of round robin play with a 2-1 record and, as the two seed, knocked off the previously unbeaten hometown Niagara Falls Falcons 8-1 in the crossover semifinal. In the tournament final, the Red Sox defeated their Eastern Ontario Baseball Association archrival Whitby Red team by a 10-2 score. The team played very solid defensively throughout the tour- nament, allowing only four runs in the last three games. “Every single one of our play- ers contributed, making it a true team tournament champion- ship,” said Pickering head coach Mike Sagat. Sagat, a Niagara Falls native, found it particularly sweet to see the boys win their GNBA tro- phies. It brought back memories from his last GNBA trophy as a player at Oakes Park in 1975. The team members are coach Glen Shaw, Ryan Sattz, Steven Conely, Matthew Shaw, Kadeev Bembridge, Justin Gideon, Rosario DiPietro, Brent Wishart, coach Steven Sattz, David Sagat, Jamie Morrow, Steven Wishart, Tommy-Lee McDonald, Andrew Martin, coach Glen Conely and coach Sagat.

I wish so much you wouldn't cry The way you did that day While thinking of the many things We didn't get to say.

It seems impossible to condense in a few short sentences the life of a brother, husband, father, grandfather, edu- cator, businessman, politician and friend; all who knew him feel crushed by the loss of this kind, generous man. Bill served in WWII dur- ing the liberation of the Netherlands as a member of the Saskatchewan Light Infantry. There, he formed lifelong bonds with the country and its people. Following his military service, Bill relocated to Ajax and became a sincere supporter of his town and community. He made tremendous contributions in many ways, including as Mayor of Ajax, President of the Kinsmen, and lifetime member of the Whitby curling club. Bill was a ﬁ erce believer in the importance of education. He played a signiﬁ cant role in the lives of many students, staff and parents as an exceptional teacher and principal. Bill was also a dedicated family man. Very proud of his family and their accomplishments, he never bragged about them; except his grandchildren - it was a mutual admiration society. Always an avid card player, Bill renewed his enthusiasm for Bridge during winter sojourns in Mexico. He delighted in a well-played game. A consum- mate risk taker, his exploits were a source of constant amusement for all who knew him. He was a catalyst for good things, and we have much to be thankful for in being a part of Bill LeGros' life. Contributions in Bill's memory can be made to the Salvation Army.

While salt is great for melting ice and making roads safer during the winter months, it can wreak havoc on your vehicle if it’s not removed. In addition to causing rust on the exterior, it can also damage the interior. Salt stains hurt the carpeting and upholstery, discolouring it and breaking down the fibres, causing it to wear away. Having the interior of your vehicle shampooed by Diamond Shine can prevent this and keep your vehicle looking new! A professional cleaning will also eliminate odours and bacteria. Whether you have pets in your vehicle or are trekking sand (and sand bugs) inside from a day at the beach, your vehicle may be full of all kinds of bacteria. Keep your kids healthy by bringing your vehicle into Diamond Shine for a full detailing! The staff at Diamond Shine hope you had a fantastic Canada Day, and to help you keep the celebration going, Diamond Shine is offering all of their customers a great deal! For the month of July only, customers who bring in this article will receive a free engine shampoo (a $45 value!) with any interior shampoo! Don’t forget your vehicle’s exterior! Bring your vehicle in for an exterior waxing and buffing to protect it from the elements and keep it shining all summer long! Diamond Shine offers a package that fits every budget, from a hand wash starting at just $19.95 to complete detailing. 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! 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. Diamond Shine is a family owned and operated business that has been serving the Durham Region since 1994. Diamond Shine is located at 221 Westney Rd.

After a tough start against the league’s top teams the Dolphins are get- ting on a roll. The Brantford game was a close battle with the Bisons opening the score after a long initial drive that ate up over eight minutes in the first quarter to go up 7-0. That was all it took to wake up the Dolphins, led by quar- terback Mike Stobbart and a running back combina- tion of Marley Patterson and Myles Daly. The ’Phins kept it on the ground with a quick response TD by Patterson, one of three he would have on the day, to even up the score. Brantford, although not big in the depth chart, was not giving up and responded early in the second quarter with a field goal to go back up 10-7. Again, the combina- tion of Stobbart to Patterson worked and the ’Phins were up 14-10 and not looking back. The Bisons tried to bat- tle back, but a missed field goal and 110-yard return by Jordan Oram was the nail that the ’Phins were look- ing for and quickly started to run up the points. Patterson would go for his third of the day, capping off a 225-yard rushing game for him to end the half with the score 28-10 Dolphins. Defensively, Pickering played a strong game led by Shane Lock, Jordan Oram, Jason Harrison and a defen- sive line that pressured Brantford all day into mak- ing mistakes and not giving up yards or opportunities to score after the first quarter. The second half started off with Andrew Downer at quarterback and he quickly got the team going with a 35- yard pass to Michael Rob- son for another major, fol- lowed up by a field goal by Mark Mickalicka who was six for six on extra points plus the three-pointer to cap off a great day. Throughout the second half, the defence prevented the Bisons from getting any yardage and the ’Phins mixed it up with a combination of passing and running and QB changes that kept the opposition on its heels. A late TD by run- ning back Brian Derkson capped off the scoring to give the Dolphins a 47-10 victory.
