Home My WebLink AboutNA2010_12_19 Annual CopShop event at Pickering Town Centre unites police officers, students KRISTEN CALIS kcalis@durhamregion.com PICKERING -- The mall was swarming with deserv- ing students and Durham police officers Wednesday as the kids shopped until they maxed out their gift cards at the Pickering Town Centre. The fifth annual CopShop event teamed up more than 26 Durham Regional Police Service officers with 26 lucky local children as they set out on a spe- cial shopping mission. CopShop originated at Halifax Shopping Centre in 2005 and has gone national for a fifth year with 10 other ‘20 VIC Management’ centres hosting CopShop events each December. Around 350 Canadian children will benefit from this year’s event. “The schools choose all the kids so they’re kids who can use a little financial help, as well as leaders in the school,” said Lorna Murphy, Pickering Town Centre marketing director. While the kids were eating a free pizza lunch at East- side Mario’s, Police Chief Mike Ewles welcomed the kids and thanked the police officers for volunteer- ing their time to accompany the kids throughout the mall.

The move came at the first finance and adminis- tration committee meet- ing of the new council term, when staff presented a report of the results of a Region-wide ballot ques- tion where majorities in every municipality voted to support electing the chair- man. Ballot support ranged from 66 per cent in Scugog to 85 per cent in Ajax, but less than 50 per cent of eligible voters cast bal- lots in the election, making the referendum non- The reindeer have rested up, and Santa is almost ready to deliver gifts to all the girls and boys.

Mr. Anderson said his motion asks the Province to pass a regulation which would allow Durham to start the pro- cess of moving towards an elected chairman, including holding necessary public meetings and sending the issue to local councils for approval. Though Mr. Anderson has expressed misgivings about an elected Regional chairman in the past, he promised he would move the issue forward when he sought reappoint- ment to the position earlier this month. “My job is to do what council wants, it’s not what I want,” he said explaining his motion. After approval from the finance and administration com- mittee, the issue now goes to Regional council on Dec. 22. “I hope there’s not a lot of debate, I hope they approve it and we move forward,” said Mr. Anderson. The report on the issue will then go to the provincial ministry of municipal affairs and housing and Mr. Ander- son said it would likely get looked at sometime after the holidays. “Our report will be on the minister’s desk when they return.” He explained that after the Province passed the regula- tion, the Region could implement the necessary bylaws to get the process going. Five of eight municipalities in Durham containing at least half the Region’s population would have to approve the issue at the local council level.

This means the requests have been pouring in from local families who could use the Sal- vation Army of Ajax and Pickering’s help to give their kids a proper Christmas. The Salvation Army is now collecting the final donations of its annual food and toy drive to help families in need. “It’s going very well,” said Patricia McInnes, pastor of Hope Community Church, which operates the Salvation Army in Ajax. But that doesn’t mean the donations are sufficient. “The big thing is we have to stock- pile for the whole year,” she said. Ms. McInnes said the Salvation Army has seen an increase of about 20 to 30 per cent in its clients in a year. “What we’ve seen is new people coming in we’ve never seen before,” Ms. McInnes said. Families at Christmas time get a hamper filled with food such as stuffing, canned veg- etables, cranberry sauce, hot chocolate and toiletries. Thanks to SupperWorks, a company that prepares homemade, freezable meals, a cou- ple of lucky families will get a prepared meal with all the fixings, valued at $150 each. “We’re going to feed two families,” said Nicole Stoiber, owner of SupperWorks Pickering, who stopped by the Salvation Army to make the donation. She was moved when she saw the amount of people coming in to use the food bank, and learning about all the local kids who wouldn’t have a Christmas without the community’s help. “The greatest gift I get is knowing that I’ve helped somebody else,” Ms. Stoiber said. The families will collect their hampers and toys during the week leading up to Christ- mas. “This year we’re doing something differ- ent,” Ms. McInnes said. “They get to pick their presents this year.” This way, kids will receive toys they really want and clothes that will fit them just right. Last year, 434 families benefited from the drive, and this year, Ms. McInnes explained gifts are most needed for kids aged 10 to 12 and newborns. She said many single people have been coming in as well, and items such as kitchenware and toiletries for men and women are most welcome. Of course, the Salvation Army Christmas Kettles are also in full swing. Longtime vol- unteer Grant Waddell said the help has been great this year, and he hopes the goal of rais- ing $215,000 locally will be reached. “The folks have responded well,” he said. “If they should keep responding in the way they are, we believe we will meet our goal.” He took the opportunity to thank the resi- dents of Ajax and Pickering for their contin- ued support. “They have been tremendous through good times and bad,” he said.

Quarter Racing Owners of Ontario Inc. donated $20,247.12 and Ajax Downs donated $100,000. At the presentation were, from left, foundation president Chad Hanna, executive director of Quarter Racing Owners of Ontario Greg Fernandes, pres- ident of Quarter Racing Owners of Ontario Bob Broadstock, Lynda and Norm Picov from Ajax Downs, and chairwoman of Image is Everything campaign Lucy Stocco. Picov family and the Quarter Racing Owners of Ontario, Inc. donate to MRI campaign KRISTEN CALIS kcalis@durhamregion.com AJAX -- The Rouge Valley Health Sys- tem Foundation has received its largest cheque to date to help buy its first MRI. Norm and Lynda Picov of the family- owned Ajax Downs donated $100,000 on behalf of the Picov family to the Image is Everything campaign. The campaign was launched in June when students at Lin- coln Avenue Public School in Ajax made a $350 donation, which they raised through a bake sale. Ms. Picov said she was thrilled the family was able to donate to help pur- chase the much-needed piece of equip- ment. “We were just totally, absolutely excit- ed,” she said. Mr. Picov’s family moved to Ajax in 1931, and he was born in the communi- ty. He felt good about the donation, espe- cially since he knows many people living in the area. “We have family in the community,” Mr. Picov said. “We felt the community need- ed it.” Although Ms. Picov is from Toronto, she feels she adopted Ajax when she married her husband, and is more than happy to help bring an MRI to the community. “It’s an essential service,” she said. Tracy Paterson, the foundation’s vice- president of development, said the large contribution has helped the campaign leap towards its goal of $5 million to pur- chase the machine and equipment to accompany it. “We’re almost halfway there,” Ms. Pater- son said. The Quarter Racing Owners of Ontar- io, Inc. also presented the campaign with $20,000. This money was raised from the Free Family Day at the Races, which was hosted by QROOI and Ajax Downs. “It was a truly fun day for the parents, the kids, and the staff alike,” Ms. Picov said. Ms. Picov said she hopes the campaign is fulfilled soon and that her family’s con- tribution will motivate others to pitch in.

They bring eclectic experiences, employ dif- ferent motivational techniques and demonstrate differing leadership char- acteristics. They couldn’t be more similar. They’ve experienced the pinnacle of success in their respective sport disci- plines, they’ve won Olympic medals, international championships and elite level titles. They are the men and women in Dur- ham Region who take time to develop promising young athletes -- and who took time from their busy schedules in 2010 to participate in our 12-part Sig- nature Series profiling elite coaches and team leaders who have chosen to share their expertise with a new genera- tion of competitors. A common theme that emerged in 12 separate interviews is that though each of them approaches the job differently, the effect they have on young competitors is amazingly sim- ilar. In the simplest terms, they find dif- ferent solutions to recurring issues that coaches face and have succeeded. Whether hockey’s Chris DiPiero, lacrosse’s Derek Keenan or swimming’s Anne Ottenbrite-Muylaert, each coach encouraged their charges to bring their best effort, confront challenges and contribute towards something -- par- ticularly in team sports -- that is greater than the sum of its parts. Each of us would be lucky to have a DiPiero or a Keenan or an Ottenbrite- Muylaert in our lives. Their dedica- tion, commitment and deep knowledge in their respective sports has helped create a new generation of competi- tors who will forever be guided by the insights and lessons offered by these high achievers. And let’s not forget the life lessons that are learned in tandem with those in sport: self-discipline, commitment, team above self, setting an example, contributing to the best of one’s ability. The Signature Series allowed a glimpse into the lives of these top coaches and a sample of their style, but it also reflect- ed the healthy state of sport and sports organizations in Durham Region. And the truth is, we can learn from all of them. We offer a nod of admiration to these men and women, and encourage them to continue doing the work they do in our communities for the betterment of young competitors.

With a slew of world leaders, activists and celebrities to choose from, it was a 26-year-old computer programmer who was named Time Magazine’s person of the year. Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg is only the third tech-type to receive the hon- our. Intel’s Andy Grove was named to the spot in 1997 and Microsoft’s Bill Gates was named in 2005 for his philanthropy. Mr. Zuckerberg’s profile has been partic- ularly high in the public since the release of The Social Network, a well-reviewed movie about the founding of Facebook. This is the second time the magazine has chosen a social media-related person of the year. In 2006 editors chose “You” representing individual content creators on the web. By that they meant people who generate YouTube videos or who blog and so on. But it begs the question, was Facebook the most important thing happening in the world this year? The site has been around since 2004, but its user base has reached stagger- ing heights with 500 million registered accounts this year. Part of the reason the site is increasingly popular is the growth of smart phone use among the general population. It’s easier than ever to access the site. It’s almost impossible to go to a social occasion without hearing someone’s cell- phone pinging from Facebook updates. Locally, I’ve seen a major shift in social media use in 2010, specifically among businesses and local government. Face- book played a big role in parts of Durham during the municipal election and more and more businesses are logging onto the site to reach out to customers. In fact, some businesses are even forgo- ing traditional websites and instead creat- ing Facebook pages. In the past, many workplaces banned Facebook as a waste of time for employ- ees, but now that’s no longer an option as the site is so ubiquitous that they’re forced to incorporate it into daily business. In fact, many businesses are starting to train their staff in the use of social media. And the website continues to add new features for third-party businesses, adver- tisers and organizations looking for access to the public, allowing them to step into people’s personal lives and conversa- tions. For example, it’s no coincidence that people who list their Facebook status as single will almost always see an ad for a dating site when they log in. Soon, Facebook will challenge e-mail giants Google, Hotmail and Yahoo and it won’t be long before we’re all sending e-mails to @facebook. Essentially, Facebook is no longer just a website we visit, it’s the home for our online lives and everyone looking to inter- act, for business or pleasure, is forced to use it. For changing the way the world commu- nicates in just six years, Mark Zuckerberg certainly deserves to be Time’s person of the year. -- Reka Szekely’s social media column appears every Friday in this space.

This became a reality for hundreds of motorists who were trapped overnight on Dec. 13 along Hwy. 402 near Sarnia. Under these circumstances, OPP offi- cers say, an emergency kit is a must-have. “For me personally, it’d be an extra pair of boots, dry socks, perhaps an extra sweater, coat, hat, mitts, in case you have to leave your vehi- cle to find shel- ter,” said Constable Tracey Hatch, Whitby OPP. “Food is another thing, especially if you’re traveling with young peo- ple or someone with medical conditions like diabetes, you need granola bars, fruit bars, water for sure. Perhaps toilet paper, tissue, you never know.” Although Durham Region hasn’t faced a similar highway emergency in recent his- tory, officers say it’s better to be on the cautious side when it comes to dealing with Mother Nature. “Even in a congested, metropolitan area the two to three hours that you could be stranded can be a long time if you’re not prepared and you don’t have the right clothing,” said Staff Sergeant Rob Kobayashi of Whitby OPP. Other items that should be staples in your vehicle during the winter months are a shovel, windshield washer fluid, a reflective vest and first-aid kit. “I’m prepared. I usually keep some gra- nola bars in my car, extra boots and mitts and I have a shovel and lots of blankets,” said Rita Winn, who commutes to Oshawa from Peterborough during the week. “I’m originally from northern Ontario so my mother always made me travel with candles, matches, blankets, extra mitts, extra hats,” said Lynne Raymond, a resi- dent of Alliston. “But I have to put a good pair of boots in the back of the car too.” When heading out on the road for lon- ger trips, the OPP suggest ensuring your cellphone is charged and someone knows your route and destination. “Hopefully leave that with people where you’re leaving or people that you’re going to see,” said Const. Hatch. “Tell people what time you expect to be there, so that if you’re not there within a reasonable amount of time they know to start making phone calls and try to find out where you are.” WATCH the video story @ durhamregion.com ROAD SAFETY Whitby OPP encourages motorists to pack emergency kit durhamregion.comNews Advertiser • December 19, 20108 AP Port Perry, ON www.greatblueheroncasino.com Food, Prizes & Entertainment 545 Slots • 60 Table Games We have a winner.

This is regarding the plan Durham Region had to convert farmland to housing in northeast Pickering, which was rejected by the Province. Coun. McLean said fighting it is a waste of time and money. The News Advertiser regrets the error. Correction SABRINA BYRNES / METROLAND Pickering Mayor’s Gala cheque AJAX -- Pickering Mayor Dave Ryan and other local representatives presented the Grandview Children’s Foundation a cheque for $25,000, raised from the Pickering Mayor’s Gala. The money will go to the ‘Help Our Kids’ campaign, which supports local children and youth with special needs. From left are Brigitte Tschinkel, senior development officer for Grandview Children’s Foundation; Vicky Earle, executive director of Grandview Children’s Centre and Grandview Children’s Foundation; Pickering Mayor Dave Ryan; Diana Hills-Milligan, chair of the Pickering Mayor’s Gala; and Lara Kirkland, sales and marketing coodinator for Tribute Communities. durhamregion.comNews Advertiser • December 19, 20109 P He said the event allowed the kids and the officers to interact, and he also took the opportunity to tell the kids to have a merry and safe Christmas. “Be very mindful of the roads and the weather conditions,” he said. After the kids got their chance to sit on Santa’s lap and received a gift bag and stocking full of toys and a Pickering Town Centre gift card for $200, they were off to shop as they pleased. “This is our favourite day at Pickering Town Centre,” Ms. Murphy said. Grade 8 student Alejandra San Mar- tin, and Grade 6 student Rose Lena of St. Jude Catholic School chose to do their shopping together. Both started with some Christmas shopping for their fam- ily. “I might get myself something,” Rose said. Alejandra had heard of the shopping spree and was excited to learn she was chosen this time around. “My friends were pretty jealous,” she said. “I told them I’d get them some- thing.” Helping the girls shop were Constables Jennifer Beanish and Dave Conforti. Const. Beanish is a liaison officer in the elementary schools, so she said a lot of the kids on the shopping spree are those she sees every day. “It’s a lot of fun every single year,” she said. And while a lot of the kids shop for themselves, she said she always seems to get paired up with those kids with family and friends on their minds. “Every year I get the kids who want to spend on everybody else,” she said. Shopping a little for himself and a little for his family was six-year-old Earl Ange- lo. Keeping up with the excited shop- per and with bags in tow was Constable Bryan Detlor. Earl spent more than half of his gift card at Zellers alone. While he made sure to get some of the best Bat- man toys he could find, he also bought some special gifts for his sister, who was shopping with another police officer. “It took two minutes,” he said. While he had a number of different gift ideas for family members, he was thrilled with the possibilities for his grandmoth- er. “I’m going to buy food for my grandma so she doesn’t starve,” he said. And when he checked out at the cash register, he wasted no time. “OK, let’s go to another,” he said.

But one Team Canada is already home from an international event and on top of the world. Emily Goodwin from Pickering was the only east GTA dancer on the squad that recently com- peted at the official world dance championships in Poland. She danced in the junior ballet and junior modern events and helped Canada hit gold in both. And, as in international hock- ey, the winners had the pleasure of hearing the national anthem played and watching the Cana- dian flag raised in triumph. “It was amazing,” says the 14 year old, sporting her Team Can- ada jacket and hardware. “It was the best trip I’ve ever taken in my life. I’ve never been so happy, when they played the national anthem.” Roughly 25 countries were rep- resented by around 2,000 danc- ers. Emily has been dancing at the Pickering School of Ballet Dance Academy since she was three. So, while she’s an old pro in terms of competing, going up against the world while representing her country did raise a few unique butterflies. “This was extra pressure, the world stage for dance,” she says. To prepare for the worlds, Emily attended rehearsals in London, Burlington and Missis- sauga, putting in eight-hour days and, at least once, a 13-hour day. Add that to her busy schedule at PSB, where she dances about 17 hours per week, and Emily’s a busy girl. Her mother, Clara Goodwin, relates that Emily was deter- mined to dance as a child. While mom encouraged her to try out different sports and extracurric- ulars, Emily consistently refused, ultimately telling her mom, “I just need to dance.” When she was eight, Emily was placed in the intensive program at PSB. She also auditioned and made it into the Profile Dance Company, a selected group that does extra performances and takes part in competitions. “That’s when I really started to enjoy it,” Emily says. A student at St. Mary Catholic Secondary School, she was the only Grade 9 pupil to make the school’s dance team (add anoth- er hour of practice per week). Emily says she doesn’t plan on a career in dance. But she’s not resting on her lau- rels, either. Watching the incred- ibly talented competitors in Poland motivated her to get even better. “Seeing other dancers, how good they are, I want to be like them,” she says. “At the competition, there were amazing dancers from other countries.” SABRINA BYRNES / METROLAND PICKERING -- Ballet dancer Emily Goodwin, 14, just returned from Poland, where she competed for Team Canada at the Official World Dance Championships as a member of the junior ballet and junior modern dance team, both of which won gold. It was amazing. It was the best trip I’ve ever taken in my life. I’ve never been so happy, when they played the national anthem. Emily Goodwin CONTESTS Pen a jingle about Durham and win prizes Songwriters invited to enter contest DURHAM -- If you find Durham inspiring, pick up your guitar or sit down at the piano and put it in a song. It could mean cash and other prizes. Durham Region is inviting local songwriters to be the voice of Durham Tourism. It is hosting a song contest where participants will create a jingle about Durham, with the winner to get $500 and a chance to perform it in public. “Durham Region has many sights and attractions that may serve as creative inspiration, from peaceful waterfronts and the rolling hills of the Oak Ridg- es Moraine to busy festivals and a thriving arts and culture scene,” states Kerri King, tour- ism manager, in a press release. “We are excited to hear how songwriters will capture the spirit of Durham in song.” To enter, write your jingle and videotape it being performed. Upload it to YouTube and visit www.artoftransition.ca to sub- mit your video before 11:59 p.m. on Jan. 24. Jingles should be one minute in length and original composi- tions. Songwriters may use the Dur- ham Tourism ‘Good Natured, Good Times’ slogan or create a new one. The winning jingle receives $500 ($250 for the songwrit- er, $250 for the performer), the chance to perform the song at the Songwriters Music Festival in Whitby on Jan. 29 and an art- ist profile in Transitions maga- zine. The jingle may be used in Dur- ham Tourism marketing cam- paigns, such as Durham Desti- nations segments on Rogers TV. durhamregion.comNews Advertiser • December 19, 201016 AP Store Purchases The Great The Great ChristmasChristmas Warehouse Sale Warehouse Sale Store Hours Sun 19th: 11 am to 4 pm Mon-Wed: 9:30 am to 6 pm Thurs 23rd: 9:30 to 8:00 pm Fri 24th: 9:30 to 1pm Phoenix Enterprises, Ajax 190 Westney Rd.

Landry can be seen in his first leading role in Cancel Christmas, airing Dec. 24 on Showcase at 8 p.m. It also stars Judd Nelson from The Breakfast Club fame. Landry plays Santa’s right-hand man -- a cheerful elf named Randal. Landry in 1999 was named Best New Comic at Yuk Yuk’s Comedy Club.

McLachlan’s latest release, Laws of Illusion, her first album of new material in seven years, has been critically acclaimed, with The New York Times calling it “lush and measured,” describing her as pos- sessing “a voice that enfolds its strength in breathy intimacy.” McLachlan’s first album was 1988’s Touch .

With the draw, Canada finished first place in its group with seven points and a plus6 goal differential, ahead of host Brazil who also collected seven points in three matches, but with only a plus4 goal differential. “I think we played our game,” said Canadian coach Carolina Morace. “We wanted to get a result and our players did very, very well. They were aggres- sive and they didn’t lose their position in a new formation.” With Canada already qualified for the final, coach Morace used a young squad. McCalla started for Canada and was substituted at the half, making her fifth international appearance. The Dun- barton High School grad played NCAA soccer at the University at Buffalo, and was courted by both the Canadian and Jamaican national team programs. Canada and Brazil will meet again on Dec. 19 in the championship final. SOCCER Pickering Soccer Club receives grant DURHAM -- The Pickering Soccer Club and Whitby Iroquois Soccer Club will be able to enhance their coach training and development activities with a recent grant from Chevrolet. The two local clubs were among 50 community sports clubs from across Canada that received a $2,000 grant. Since its inception in 2006, the Chev- rolet Making Dreams Possible program has provided more than $1.2 million to support Canadian coaches at all levels of competition. Over the past four years, Chevrolet’s direct support of coach edu- cation and development through this program has impacted nearly 31,000 coaches and over 284,000 athletes in 194 communities across the country. Chevrolet’s Making Dreams Pos- sible program provides a minimum of 100 grants of $2,000 each annually for coach development in local communi- ties, and 10 grants of $10,000 each annually to high performance athletes and their coaches. These grants will be used to fund special projects that develop the skills and abilities of high performance and community level coaches.

SOCCER Simmons showing her potential on the pitch Soccer player has a bright future ahead with Canada or Trinidad and Tobago BY MICHAEL AMATO newsdurhamregion.com PICKERING -- For all of her accomplish- ments, it’s hard to believe Diarra Simmons is just 15 years old. In the last few months, Simmons has won league, provincial and national champion- ships with the Pickering Power Green U16G team as well as competed for Trinidad and Tobago at the U17 Women’s World Cup. While training with the Ontario provin- cial team, Simmons was noticed by a coach who also worked with Trinidad and Tobago. Being that her parents were originally from that nation it was a perfect fit. “Competing at the U17 World Cup this summer was an awesome experience,” said Simmons. “Scoring a goal against Chile is something I will never forget.” There were many obstacles on the way to a national championship this season however. Getting past rival Newmarket in league play as well as defeating a strong Alberta team at nationals was no easy feat, said Simmons. “We always have very tough and close matches against Newmarket. In the nation- al championship run I thought Alberta had a very strong team also. It took a great effort from everyone to get it done.” Pickering Power coach Paul Deabreu had high praise for the young striker. “She is a very tough and tenacious player who always seems to be in the right place at the right time. She scored very important and clutch goals for us this year and espe- cially at nationals.” Despite a jam-packed resume full of accomplishments, Simmons still feels like she has much more to improve on. “My main goal is to obtain a soccer schol- arship and play at university. Then hope- fully go on to play for the Women’s nation- al team with Trinidad and Tobago or even Canada.” ONTARIO HOCKEY LEAGUE Generals trade Zador Netminder shipped out for two draft picks SHAWN CAYLEY scayley@durhamregion.com OSHAWA -- The Oshawa Generals’ crowded crease is no more. A little more than a week after trading for overage goaltender Peter Di Salvo, Oshawa coach/GM Chris DePiero was in a dealing mood once again, sending veteran netminder Michael Zador to the Owen Sound Attack for a pair of mid-round draft picks. The deal was finalized on Wednesday and will see the Generals pick up a fifth rounder in 2013 and a conditional fifth in 2012 if Zador, a Tampa Bay Lightning draft pick, returns to the OHL as an overager next season. DePiero said multiple teams called to express interest in the netminder after Oshawa shored things up with the Di Salvo deal. But it was Owen Sound, in the wake of losing Scott Stajc- er to a long-term injury, that showed the most desire to get a deal completed for Zador, who came to Oshawa nearly two years ago as one of the key pieces in the John Tavares trade with London. “There were a few suitors for Michael and I think Owen Sound seemed to me the most per- sistent,” DePiero said. “There was a team in the Eastern Conference that was interested, but I think all things being equal, it was a situation where Owen Sound needed to be a little more proactive based on their situation.” DePiero said he almost had Zador dealt to another Western Conference team late last week, but the deal fell through. At that point, he said, efforts to move Zador were stepped up. “There was a deal in that place that I talked to Michael about and he was prepared to go, but then that kind of fell apart,” he said. “I gave him my word then that I would continue to work through this this week and we were able to finalize something.” Meanwhile, with the league’s holiday trade freeze coming into effect on Dec. 20, more moves could be in the cards for the Generals, who still have one extra overager on the roster. “There have been some discussions ongo- ing with teams and if something happens it happens, but if it doesn’t, we’ll wait until after the 27th,” DePiero said, noting when the trade freeze is lifted. From that point, teams will have until Jan. 10 to complete trades. durhamregion.comNews Advertiser • December 19, 201019 AP Sunday, December 19, 2010 Ajax & Pickering Locations Friday Flyers If you did not receive your News Advertiser/fl yers OR you are interested in a paper route call Circulation at 905-683-5117.

It is the provincial curl- ing championship for curling teams aged 20 and under. This will be the sec- ond trip to the provincials for Bryson (with Sandy Martin) as he skipped a team at last year’s Ontario Championships in Tees- water.

The tournament start- ed with a game against the Aurora Tigers, which was end-to-end action with the winning goal coming from the Knights with less than two minutes to play in a 2-1 final. Up next for the Knights was a game against the hometown Livonia Knights. Despite being at a significant size disadvan- tage and trailing 2-0 mid- way through a the game, the 13 year olds fought back to earn a critical point with a 2-2 tie. They even had a chance to win with less than 15 seconds left in the game, were it not for hitting the post. The final obstacle left standing between the Knights and a place in the finals was the team from North London. After a sluggish start, the Knights applied the pressure and came away with a 2-1 win and the top seed in the final. The final was a showdown that pitted the Knights in a rematch against the Aurora Tigers. Using their speed, physical play and tenacity, the Knights were able to get to more pucks, win more battles and jumped out to a 3-0 lead after two peri- ods. After adding anoth- er goal early in the third period, and holding off the Tigers’ late surges, it was the Knights who won the finals 4-1.

Ajax downs Dwyer by 6-3 score in bronze final of Maxwell Heights hockey tournament WHITBY -- Out-of-town teams took the top four spots at the annual Maxwell Mustangs Christmas Classic boys’ hockey tournament this year. The big winner was Midland’s St. Theresa, which went unde- feated in six games, including a 4-3 decision over Toronto’s Mowat in the gold medal final at the Iroquois Park Sports Centre. Markham’s Brother Andre won the silver final 2-1 over Vaughan’s Hill Academy. Two Durham Region teams squared off in the bronze final, with the Ajax Rams doubling Oshawa’s Paul Dwyer Saints 6-3. Seven of the 12 teams that advanced beyond pool play were from LOSSA, but only those two survived the first round of play- offs. Whitby’s All Saints Titans, who went 3-0 in winning Pool B, were ousted by St. Theresa 3-0, while Whitby’s Anderson Raiders fell 4-3 to Brother Andre, Ajax’s Notre Dame Cougars lost 6-2 to Mowat, the Bowmanville Talons were blasted 7-0 by Dwyer and Pickering’s Dunbarton Spartans went down 4-1 to Hill Academy. Both Ajax and Dwyer lost by a goal in the next round, where games were shortened and played three-on-three. Ajax lost 1-0 in overtime to St. Theresa and Dwyer dropped a 2-1 decision to Mowat. The host team, Oshawa’s Max- well Heights Mustangs, in just their second year of operation, barely missed out on advanc- ing through pool play with a 2-1 record, beating Denis O’Connor 3-0 and Anderson 5-4 in a shootout, while losing 3-1 to Bowmanville.

At the tender age of 24 we lost our little girl. Stephanie was special. In the entire world there was nobody like her. Since the begin- ning of time, there has never been another person like her. Nobody had her smile, her eyes, her nose, her hair, her hands, or her voice. Steph was unique, extraordinary, she was a remarkable young lady who never gave up, and set such high goals and accom- plishments. Heaven's gates have welcomed their newest Angel. Gone too soon she will be greatly missed by her Mom, Dad, Grand- ma, Aunts, Uncles, Brother, Sister, Cousins, & Friends.
