Mr. Lue’s legs were crushed by a scrapyard crane magnet in Pickering in September 2009.Paralyzing ordeal for Durham man FUNDRAISING EVENTS BEING PLANNED TO HELP ANTHONY LUE PARVANEH PESSIAN ppessian@durhamregion.com WHITBY -- Every day has been a challenge for Anthony Lue since the 22-year-old Whitby man fell victim to a shocking work- place accident that paralyzed him from the waist down two years ago. In September 2009, he was working as a mechanical apprentice at a specialty car repair shop in Pickering when the car he was in was crushed by a 20-tonne scrap yard crane, and then subsequently dropped from a height of 15 feet. After miraculously surviving, Mr. Lue spoke about his circumstances light-heart- edly last December while reuniting with a paramedic who had helped transport him to hospital. "I'm living my life as best as I can," said the enthusiastic young man, who had his heart set on a sports career and was even offered a scholarship to pursue one in high school. "Getting up every morning and just trying to have a positive outlook on life."

Fire crews from Ajax, Whitby and Pickering arrived at the scene to start bat- tling the blaze at O’Connor Land and Cattle Company around 4 p.m. The fire was con- tained, though not completely put out, by 6:30 p.m. “We were called to assist a barn fire and by the time we arrived it had spread to mul- tiple buildings,” said Acting Sergeant Chris Winn of the Durham Regional Police. “An effort was made to save the silo, which we believe was successful, but a number of buildings did fall. Crews are still work- ing now, there’s still active pockets, but it is contained.” A number of cattle died in the blaze, one of which was euthanized by police officers before representatives of the OSPCA arrived at the scene to euthanize any remaining animals whose injuries were too severe and tend to the surviving cattle, many of which suffered visible burns. “We don’t know the exact number of ani- mals that were lost but we do know it is more than 50,” said acting Sgt. Winn. “The losses are estimated at upwards of $1 million right now, including the loss of cattle and buildings. Although the fire start- ed in the most westerly barn, due to the nature of the wind today it did spread to several buildings.” Lakeridge and Rossland Roads were both shut down due to billowing smoke from the fire, which was reducing visibility in the area. Neighbour Bonnie Morris, who has lived across the street from the farm for seven years, was shocked by the scene when she arrived home just after 6 p.m. “It was unnerving,” she said of the sight of smoke and emergency vehicles that greet- ed her. “We know the O’Connors so we’re hop- ing for the best for everything and just real- ly worried about their animals. I had heard on the radio there was a barn fire, you can see the smoke from the 407. When you see something like this across the road from you it hits a little closer to home than just seeing it on the news.” Durham police had seven units at the scene, with some controlling traffic in the area. About 10 fire trucks from the various responding municipalities could be seen at the scene at times, with many shuttling water back and forth from area hydrants. Acting Sgt. Winn expected area roads to reopen by 8 p.m. once crews had moved the surviving cattle to farms across the road to protect them from smoke The Fire Marshal’s office has been called in to investigate the cause.

AJAX -- Police investigating a report of prowlers Monday night in Ajax seized a loaded handgun and charged two men with weapons offences. Durham Regional Police responded to Hibbard Avenue just before midnight after a resident reported seeing three men prowling in a nearby backyard with flashlights. Officers didn’t find the sus- pects right away, but about 45 minutes later stopped a taxi to investigate two men inside. One of the men bolted and was caught after a brief foot pursuit while the other was arrested without incident. The man in the cab was found to be in possession of a loaded handgun, police said. Sandy Ako, 18, of Mascot Place, Toron- to, and 18-year-old Andre Dunrod of Jane Street, Brock are charged with firearms offences.

Mayor Steve Parish joins municipal leaders in asking provincial politicians to support Greenbelt REKA SZEKELY rszekely@durhamregion.com AJAX -- The mayor of Ajax wants to see the Green- belt as one of the top issues during the next provin- cial election slated for this fall. Mayor Steve Parish is co-chairman of Municipal Leaders for the Greenbelt, a group that recently fired off a letter to Ontario’s major political party leaders asking them to state their support for the Greenbelt. “I want the strongest possible support from the government for the Greenbelt. I want to know, and I want all the electors to know, specifically what the various parties’ positions are,” said Mayor Parish. About 1.8 million acres of Greenbelt lands ring the Greater Golden Horseshoe area of southern Ontario, which includes Durham and the GTA. In Durham, about 80 per cent of the Region is located in the Greenbelt. The Greenbelt is made up agri- cultural land, natural features and rural communi- ties. It includes the Niagara Escarpment, the Oak Ridges Moraine and Rouge Park and was created in 2005 to curb urban sprawl. The Greenbelt comes up for review in 2015 and Mayor Parish said the next elected provincial gov- ernment will determine its fate. He noted a recent survey by the Ontario Green- belt Alliance which found that 70 per cent of Ontar- ians favoured strengthening the Greenbelt to pro- tect green space and agricultural lands. Another 15 per cent supported lessening protections in order to promote economic development and 15 per cent of respondents weren’t sure. The survey also found 53 per cent of respondents said a party’s position on the Greenbelt will influ- ence their vote in the provincial election. Mayor Parish said the Greenbelt is not a com- plicated issue for residents to grasp and likened it to other pocketbook issues such as jobs and com- mute times, which affect residents’ quality of life. “The Greenbelt is very much that kind of issue, the more sprawl there is, the longer commute times are going to be,” he said, adding that the availabil- ity of locally grown food, clean air and water mean a healthy lifestyle for residents. But he cautioned there are developer interests that would be better served by getting rid of parts of the Greenbelt and developing the land. “Those interests, as I say, are influential and powerful. And I’m sure they’re lobbying the Liber- al Party, the Progressive Conservative Party, every- body to make changes to the Greenbelt, but I don’t think it’s what people want,” he said. With the review, Mayor Parish said he’s not opposed to land swaps in cases where it makes sense, which would see some land taken out of the Greenbelt with equal land added, but he opposed weakening the Greenbelt as a whole. He also said there are economic incentives to maintain the Greenbelt, pointing to the impor- tance of agribusiness as a piece of Durham’s econ- omy. “This is not just a tree-hugger issue, this is very much a core issue with respect to our quality of life in Ajax and Durham.” POLITICS Greenbelt should be Ontario election issue, says Ajax mayor REKA SZEKELY / METROLAND AJAX -- Ajax Mayor Steve Parish is pictured on one of the trails near the Ajax Sportsplex off Audley Road. The area is part of the Greenbelt and Mayor Parish is hoping the future of the Greenbelt will be a key issue during the next provincial elec- tion.

He required regular visits to physio- therapists and occupational therapists, as well as adjusting to life in a wheel- chair. Just one month after the reunion, Mr. Lue was informed by his insurance com- pany that he would no longer be receiv- ing financial compensation for his medi- cal needs. "It was a letter and they said, 'We're cutting you off,' and that's it," says Mr. Lue, who was advised by a lawyer, fol- lowing the incident, to seek financial aid for his medical expenses through car insurance instead of the Workplace Safe- ty and Insurance Board because he was in a vehicle when it occurred. Now, the car insurance company claims his accident does not meet cri- teria for what is typically covered, he said. "I knew it was coming but I didn't know it was coming that soon, so I was stunned, quite frankly." Since then, Mr. Lue has struggled to make ends meet, paying for any appoint- ments or supplies -- racking up more than $1,000 a month -- out of his own pocket. "I've had to cut back on my medical supplies so I just have the bare essen- tials," he says. "It's been quite the stressful situation because these people are basically just neglecting me and forcing me into a cor- ner." His mother Marcia, who's been his pri- mary caregiver since the incident, is cur- rently organizing a series of fundraising events over the next few months to offset expenses, while seeking legal advice on how to resolve the matter. Fundraising ideas so far include hold- ing a barbecue, Bingo night and concert, according to Ms. Lue, who's also work- ing on setting up a website to keep the public aware of her son’s progress. "You worry about things and how (they're) going to turn out because of course, he wants to go off to school and he's so young,” she says. "The whole uncertainty of this situation wears you down but you just tread along and hope all is going to turn out well."

One such role model is Terry Fox. Thirty years after the fact his presence is still felt throughout our nation and the foundation in his namesake is still going strong. Various communities across Canada and the world are taking it upon themselves to never forget what this one young man stood for. I feel that Durham Region could do more to be involved in this noble cause. I have read many articles of schools in which everyone gets involved in the Terry Fox run and uses the fundraising opportunity as a way to boost school spirit and bring every- one closer together. On the foundation website there are a plethora of ideas to get everyone involved, from people shaving their hair to raise awareness to teachers dancing to Michael Jackson’s ‘Thriller’ if the students raise enough funds. In my four years of high school I have not seen such an effort on my school’s front or from any other school for that matter. Caitlin Hart Ajax ‘BOOBIE’ BRACELETS I’d rather have youth remain healthy To the editor: Re: ‘Profoundly disrespectful’, letter to the editor, durhamregion.com, May 23, 2011, in response to the controversial AIDS Com- mittee of Durham education campaign. I am sorry to bring this news to the let- ter writer, but most youth who are sexu- ally active do not see sex as “the beautiful nature of sexual interaction”. I understand why some people might find this campaign “vulgar”, but if vulgar- ity is going to educate youth about HIV/ AIDS and save their lives, I’d rather have a bunch of vulgar, healthy kids than a bunch of politically correct, HIV positive youth. Irania Ledesma AIDS Committee of Durham Oshawa *** To the editor: Re: ‘Profoundly disrespectful...’ letter to the editor on AIDS Committee of Durham education campaign, durhamregion.com, May 23, 2011. I respectfully disagree with the letter writ- er’s assertions about the AIDS Committee of Durham Region and the response to my statement in the article ‘Durham school board bans edgy AIDS Committee cam- paign.’ The campaign was designed by youth for youth. Using vernacular terminology does not speak negatively about the intellect of youth, nor intentionally degrades the human anatomy. Using slang over clinical language has proven an effective means to engage youth and renew conversation around a topic that has traditionally been surrounded by stigma, discrimination and misinforma- tion. While I agree that sexual intercourse may be viewed as the most “intimate physical expression of love,” the act, recreational or not, is leading to an increase in sexually transmitted infections. Chlamydia and gonorrhea rates have increased in the region since 1997 among youth, and on average 570 Durham teens become pregnant every year. These are indicators of unsafe sex and thus a precursor for HIV infection. Although some may view the campaign as profoundly disrespectful, when youth report they will practise safer sex after viewing the campaign, I am being effec- tive at my job and will not apologize for our efforts to prevent the spread of HIV.

He commutes to work in Toronto each day, tends to a lov- ing marriage with his wife of 11 years and works hard at raising two young sons. But Mr. Berwick is unlike the vast major- ity of Durham residents in that he has been blind since age 13. His life, and the ways in which he nego- tiates it with his disability, is being docu- mented by the non-profit organization Accessible Media Inc., which makes TV and print media accessible to Canadians with disabilities. Mr. Berwick’s story is remarkable in how unremarkably he lives his life. He makes comfort food at home for his kids, takes them to their minor sports matches, enjoys prime time television shows with his wife and, of course, confronts the daily grind of commuting. The five-minute documentary, entitled ‘Jeff’s Day’, allows viewers to follow Mr. Berwick and his guide dog on a typical day. They’ll join him for a portion of his commute, learn how he navigates obsta- cles, and see him interact with his family. He’s the star of the show, certainly, but the message contained in the short film addresses the issues that millions of Canadians with disabilities face on a daily basis. The project by AMI is aimed at promot- ing awareness of its effort to make print, broadcast and online media accessible through its website and two broadcast services, VoicePrint and the Accessible Channel. The services help those who are blind, deaf, hearing impaired, learned disabled, mobility impaired, as well as those learn- ing English as a second language. In an era where communication in all forms -- text, video, broadcast -- is avail- able on demand, in an instant, the initia- tive by AMI serves to open up the world to Canadians who might otherwise be left out. Mr. Berwick’s willingness to take part in the documentary underscores both his awareness of the need for understand- ing in the larger community, but also of his belief in the benefits of the services of VoicePrint (audio news), or descriptive video when viewing television shows or movies, for example. Durham residents can all get behind the effort by Mr. Berwick and AMI to raise awareness -- and funds -- for the services it offers. durhamregion.comNews Advertiser • June 3, 20117 AP Dental Care forAdults, Kids and Great Big Babies. • A Full Range of Dental Treatments - Bring the whole family. • Saturday & Evening Appointments - To serve you better. • Flexible Payment Options - Helping you get the treatment you want. • A Relaxing Atmosphere - Virtual vision glasses, stereo headphones to help ensure you have a pleasant visit.

DURHAM -- Six people accused of vio- lent offences were charged with breach- ing their bail conditions as Durham cops participating in an ongoing anti-violence strategy hit the streets last weekend. The Durham Region Anti-Violence Intervention Strategy sees officers making unannounced home visits on accused violent offenders, ensuring they are complying with court-imposed bail conditions. DRAVIS was active last week in Ajax, Pickering, Whitby and Oshawa. During the weekend officers conduct- ed 172 compliance checks, arresting six people for bail infractions and applying for bench warrants for another five sus- pects. Officers made three other arrests and seized drugs valued at more than $2,000. And with the assistance of Haliburton cops they had another suspect picked up at his cottage for an alleged offence. To date DRAVIS officers have made more than 1,700 arrests, laid 2,500 charg- es and seized over $1.1 million dollars in drugs, money and related property.

Firefighters will be visiting area homes to ensure there are working fire alarms on each storey as well as out- side all sleeping areas. “Most fatal fires occur at night when everyone is asleep, so that is why it is so important for everyone to have working smoke alarms and know what to do when they sound,” said Bill Douglas, Pickering fire chief. “Working smoke alarms will give you the early warning you need for everyone to get out safely.” Firefighters will also be discussing the importance of home escape planning, which includes reacting quickly to escape the dwelling and having an outdoor family meeting place. “Homeowners are required to maintain working smoke alarms on every storey of their home and outside all sleeping areas,” said Chief Douglas. “Smoke alarms are available for less than $15. Make sure your family is safe by installing and maintaining working smoke alarms and preparing a home escape plan.” For more information: CALL 905-839-9968 (Pickering Fire Services) VISIT cityofpickering.com EMERGENCY SERVICES Pickering to encourage fire safety throughout summer PICKERING -- The Pickering Legion will be mark- ing the anniversary of D-Day on Sunday, June 6 with a parade and ceremony. The parade will begin at 10:30 a.m. at the Pickering Recreation Complex at 1867 Valley Farm Rd. From there it will travel south on Valley Farm and through the middle of Esplanade Park, where a wreath ceremony will be held. Helen Wishnowski, service officer for Pickering Legion branch 606, said she can’t remember when the group started holding a D-Day parade, but that it’s been an annual event since she got involved with the branch 37 years ago. “It’s like Remembrance Day for us,” she said of the event, which marks the anniversary of the Allied invasion of Normandy during the Second World War. “The public is welcome to come out and sup- port us. They are welcome to join us for the parade and come back to the branch after for live entertainment and refreshments.” The parade will include Branch 606’s colour guard and pipe band as well as the colour guard of Toronto’s Branch 258.

The RVHS board of directors approved the draft declaration after three months of consultation with the public, staff, doctors and volunteers in Toronto and west Durham area. “We are proud to introduce our Patient Declara- tion of Values as a natural extension of our new stra- tegic plan,” said Jay Kaufman, chairman of the board of directors. “The values state what our patients need and expect from our hospital team in east Toronto and in west Durham. It’s all about putting our patients first and this one-page document does that very clearly and concisely.” A first draft of the declaration was made avail- able in the winter and consultations were initiated through focus groups, meetings and an online sur- vey. The one page documents includes sections on quality, respect and voice. Each section lists specific things patients want from their health care provider, such as ‘I will be cared for as quickly as possible,’ ‘I will be kept informed and involved in my care’ and ‘I will be cared for with compassion and respect for me, my family and my friends’. “The Patient Declaration of Values satisfies a com- ponent of the government’s Excellent Care for All Act, but the true value of the declaration is much deeper than that,” said Rhonda Lawson, board member and chairwoman of the Community Advisory Group. “The values list, in everyday language, what our patients and community want, expect and deserve from their community hospital. Now it’s the job of our hospital team to deliver on those values every day in every interaction with our patients and communities.” The declaration is available in English, Tamil and Chinese on the hospital’s website at www.rougevalley.ca and will also be posted throughout the hospital.

ENVIRONMENT Growing business in Pickering with a little green BREAKING NEWS: ALL DAY, EVERY DAY >>durhamregion.com durhamregion.comNews Advertiser • June 3, 201110 AP By Jason Delong STAFF WRITER Clean out your attics, closets and lock boxes, be- cause the Treasure Hunters Roadshow is coming to Bowmanville. Roadshow specialists are in town examining antiques, collectibles, gold and silver. The Roadshow will be focusing on: gold and silver coins made before 1964, military items, toys and trains, musical instruments, pocket and wrist watches, and scrap gold. Buyers for the roadshow have noticed a tre- mendous increase in the amount of gold coming to the Roadshow, and for good reason. Record gold prices have Roadshow guests cashing in on broken or outdated jewelry and dental gold with our fair and honest purchase offers. The Roadshow encourages anyone planning a visit to take a minute and examine their jewelry box or their lock box and gather anything that is gold. If you are not sure if something is gold, bring it any- ways and the Roadshow staff will test it for free. Archie Davis, the Roadshow’s toy specialist, spoke about some of the top toys getting great of- fers. “Old tin wind-up toys from the late 1800’s through the 1960’s are in great demand right now” said Davis, “especially those that are character re- lated. Mickey Mouse, the Flintstones or any other character toys are sought after.” Basically any toys made before 1965 are wanted. Train sets made by Lionel, American Flyer, Marklin and others have the potential to fetch a large sum. Davis also stressed, “Toys with boxes and in mint condition bring sensa- tional prices. Most of the toys that come to the Roadshow are not in perfect shape, but can still bring good prices from collectors.” When specialist Tom Fuller was asked what he enjoyed most about working at the Roadshow, he was quick to answer, “Old coins and paper cur- rency—for as long as I can remember, I have been fascinated with collecting coins. I would go through the change in my parents’ grocery store, looking for rare dates and errors. Once, I found a silver quarter that I sold for $300. Not bad for an 8 year old.” Fuller went on to explain that any U.S. coins made before 1964 are the most sought after by collec- tors. Coins made before 1964 are 90% silver, and valuable because of either the silver content or even more valuable if one happens to be a rare date. Fuller explained, “We help people sort through their coins for unique dates. We buy all types of coins at the Roadshow—from single items to entire truck- loads. See you at the Roadshow!” ROADSHOW COMES TO BOWMANVILLE NEXT WEEK! Above—Roadshow specialist, Tony Enright, talks with a family about the gold jewelry that they brought in.

Engage little ones in the responsibility. If your child is old enough, ask them to help water the lawn or plants. If your child is really taking an interest in helping out, why not give them their own section of the garden? Watching plants grow from seeds into ﬂ owers or vegetables is not only fun for kids, but a great learning oppor- tunity.

F O R A F R E E C O N S U L T A T IO N Low E Glass durhamregion.comNews Advertiser • June 3, 201114 AP Celebrating cottage life SUPPLIED PHOTO BRITT, ONTARIO -- A view at Jessica Outram’s family cottage, one hour north of Parry Sound. MIKE RUTA mruta@durhamregion.com DURHAM -- Like an oasis, time spent at the cottage refreshes weary city folks. But so does a cold drink, so why does cottage life have such an important place in southern Ontar- io culture? “I think because it represents get- ting out of the city, getting out of the everyday and escaping to the wilderness,” says author Jessica Outram. The Pickering resident knows something about the subject. Outram has been spending time at her family cottage near Britt for as long as she can remember. She recently created a new pub- lishing company, Sunshine in a Jar, and its first offering is From the Cot- tage Porch: An Anthology of poems, stories and reminiscences, many of which are by Durham writers. Born and raised in Oshawa, Outram has lived in many corners of Durham. She has called Whitby, Port Perry and Bowmanville home at various times. But ask her and she’ll likely say she’d rather be at the cottage north of Parry Sound, where the Magnetawan River enters Georgian Bay. The cottage experience is differ- ent for everybody, Outram says. Some see a lake and want nothing more than to make a cold drink and sit and relax looking at the water. Others see the same lake and think fishing. Still others see the fun they will have boating, swimming and water-skiing. However, Outram notes there is a constant that most of us experi- ence: unlike the quick passage of time in our busy lives in towns and cities, time “drips” at the cottage. And everybody can connect to wildlife in a way that you cannot in the city. Outram notes that her par- ents have a had a recent visitor at the cottage, a black bear. “My mom was cooking chicken and the bear came right up on the deck,” Outram says. A blast from an air horn sent the bruin packing, but it returned a couple of days later and might need some more discouragement. “It seems to be our homestead,” Outram says of the cottage, in her family for generations. “It wasn’t a cottage when my ancestors lived there, it was their home.” Outram has touched on the sub- ject before, in her play Once Upon a Rocking Chair, which centres around the experiences of a group of female family members on a regular girls’ weekend at the cot- tage. It’s one of her favourite times at the place, another being pic- nics on a rock island, where fam- ily and friends who often haven’t seen one another for a long time gather to catch up. Outram has a lot on her plate. A full- time teacher in Whitby who has also taught in Ajax, she’s working part-time on her master’s degree. So why take on the huge task of creating a publishing com- pany? “It just kind of happened,” she says. “I’ve always loved books. I’m a bit of a book addict.” Outram got the idea for the book after travelling around the Geor- gian Bay and Muskoka areas. Beyond historical information about various places, Outram was surprised to find there is precious little written about our experiences at the cottage. She also found that many people have never been to a cottage before and don’t know what all the fuss is about. She put out a call to writers across Canada and was surprised to receive 115 submissions, culled to 40 by 31 authors, 15 of whom are from Durham. In fact, each of Dur- ham’s eight municipalities is repre- sented by at least one author, with the exception of Whitby. Many, like Outram, are members of The Writers’ Community of Durham Region. She notes that the water- colour painting on the book’s cover and the sketches at the start of each chapter are by Whitby art- ist Livia Tsang. The co-editor is Ewa Krynski. Outram says she didn’t have a set plan of how the book would unfold and waited until all the submis- sions came in before she started reading. Outram didn’t want rigid sections divided into chapters on, for example, fishing stories or a loon chapter. “I really wanted it to be a dynam- ic mix of work,” she says. “Unfortu- nately, we had to not include real- ly great pieces because they didn’t fit with what ended up being the structure in the end.” Time is the unifying factor, and the book unfolds as a day at the cottage does, beginning with Sun- rise and then Morning, Afternoon and so on. A teaser at the end of the book notes that Sunshine in a Jar’s next offering, due in the fall of 2012, is Around the Kitchen Table: An Anthology. If you’re sensing a trend here, it’s because Outram wants to explore shared experiences around a com- mon place, especially places that hold a treasure trove of memories for Ontarians. “I really love Canada and I love Ontario and I love local writers,” Outram says. “I’ve read a lot and there’s not a lot that collects where we live, where we spend our time.” Learn more about Sunshine in a Jar and find out how to get a copy of From the Cottage Porch: An Anthol- ogy at www.sunshineinajar.com. The book is also available at Chapters in Ajax.

Competing at MusicFest Canada Nationals, the DEJB earned a Gold award, the highest honour at MusicFest, after their three-song set in the competition. Roughly 10,000 students travelled from across Canada to compete in the event. “The motto of the DEJB is why accept ordinary when you can have extraordinary and these students are extraordinary,” says co- director Nicole Henning. She notes that one of the adjudica- tors commented that “these kids play like first-year university students.” Henning adds that “following our performance, band members and chaperones and directors were stopped by many listeners, fellow music teachers and MusicFest staff, congrat- ulating the group on its superior performance. One of the festival’s Executive team members had composed one of the pieces the band performed and explained after the band’s performance that this song was written in memory of his late wife and the DEJB had done incredible justice to her memory. The band was profoundly impacted by the sincerity of this moment.” BOWMANVILLE -- Margaret Rodgers’s New York Story, described as “a compelling story in words and images,” is at Artspace on the Mezzanine to June 30. “Rodgers is an artist, writer, curator and educator in Oshawa,” states a press release. “She writes essays, articles and reviews for several art publications and is the author of Locating Alexandra.

Brad Kelly Sports Editor bkelly@durhamregion.com durhamregion.com facebook.com/sportsdurhamregion twitter.com/scnewsdurhamSports durhamregion.comNews Advertiser • June 3, 201117 AP Ajax Pickering club helping members prepare for multi-sport races BRAD KELLY bkelly@durhamregion.com DURHAM -- It’s easy to draw a parallel between racing in a triathlon and starting up a club to help athletes enter one of the multi- sport events. “It’s been more work than we ever antici- pated, but it’s a lot of fun as well,” says Todd McCall. So is he speaking of starting a club or train- ing and completing a swim, bike, run triath- lon? Well, in this case, it’s the club aspect of which he speaks, but it could easily be con- fused with racing. In its first full season of operation, the Ajax Pickering Triathlon Club has grown from an idea to a non-profit organization that is just over 70 members strong. The idea was hatched by McCall, who serves as vice-presi- dent and co-coach, and his friend Jim McLel- lan, who coaches and holds the title of presi- dent, after the two had entered various races and conducted clinics at the Running Room in Pickering before switching to Running Free in Ajax. “People who love the sport of triathlon want to share their passion, train with like-mind- ed people and have a lot of fun while getting better at the sport; they tend to seek us out,” says McLellan. “What we try to do is let peo- ple know we exist and if you want to look us up and become a part of what we are, then by all means, you’re more than welcome.” The club is designed to help anyone con- quer fears about participating in a triathlon. In addition to training sessions four to five times a week, the club teaches members to swim, use efficient breathing, run, ride a bike, change gears, put a chain on without getting your hands dirty, change a flat and tap into the knowledge of guest speakers. “We’re set up to teach you everything you need to know for your first triathlon and enjoy it,” adds McLellan. The training programs are designed based on the distance members hope to race. It doesn’t have to be an Ironman (3.8km swim, 180km bike, 42km run), which can consume an entire day and then some to complete, but rather, something as simple as a try-a-tri (375m swim, 10km bike, 2.5km run) that can be finished in just over half an hour. “It depends on what they’re going to do,” says McCall of the training required. “If somebody is going to do a try-a-tri, I say it’s such a short event, you’re going to make it through no matter what. Everyone finds it very daunting to take on the swimming part. Even for someone who is completely pre- pared, it’s a difficult challenge to get in the water and swim around with 50 or 60 people, or it could be 150. You get out there, you can’t touch the bottom, you can’t grab the wall, panic is going to set in. It’s a natural thing. “If you’re not prepared to deal with that panic ... you’re going to be scared. You’re going to be afraid. Our job is to let people know, if you have the right preparation, you won’t have any problems.” McLellan, who puts 10 years of racing and seven as a coach to good use in the club, passes on everything he has learned along the way to help members negotiate through training and competing or participating in a race. “When I coach, I hold nothing back,” he promises. “I train every one of my members who wants to be better than me how to be better than me. If they get better, they raise the bar and we all get better and we all have more fun while we’re doing it. “As a club, we’re all about people who love the sport. So whether you are doing your very first try-a-tri or doing your 15th Ironman, as far as we’re concerned, you are a triathlete and everyone is welcome.” There’s also an added level of respect that goes along with completing a triathlon, notes McCall. People recognize the challenges that accompany completing varying distances in three different sports. “If you go up to someone and say, ‘I ran a five (km), or I ran a 10 (km)’ and went any- where from half an hour to an hour, people are like, ‘That’s pretty cool.’ “If you go up to someone and say, ‘I did a triathlon’, it’s this whole new level of respect, even though you could have done a try-a-tri and been done in 38 minutes.” In addition to the sense of accomplish- ment that comes with finishing a triathlon, the sport promotes a healthy lifestyle, and is something the whole family can enjoy. A Kids of Steel provincial series caters to young athletes. For more information, visit the club’s web- site at www.ajaxpickeringtriclub.com.

NN MAJOR SERIES LACROSSE Rock rocked by Redmen Brooklin downs Ajax 15-4 SHAWN CAYLEY scayley@durhamregion.com WHITBY -- One club appears to finally be getting to where it wants to be and the other hopes to follow suit. That is the plight of the Brooklin Red- men and Ajax Rock of the Major Series Lacrosse loop. Durham’s two senior A teams locked horns at Iroquois Park in Whitby Wednes- day night, with the Redmen buoyed by the veteran excellence of Shawn Williams and further maturation of their young core in a 15-4 drubbing of the Rock. Brooklin improved to 2-0 with the win, while Ajax remains winless in three tries. “We’re getting better each time we get together,” Redmen coach/GM Wayne Colley said. “We had a whole bunch of practices before the season started and now we’re starting to reap the benefits of what we have.” Indeed they are. Williams was his usual steady self, col- lecting 11 points on the night, three of which were goals. His greatest impact, however, came as a distributor. Williams assisted on three of rookie Kiel Matisz’s four goals and with five other helpers on the night, he now has 20 points in two games, good enough for the league lead. Kevin Brownell added two goals and four points, Derek Hopcroft a goal and five points, while Nick Cotter (1-3-4) and Kyle Buchanan (1-2-3) were solid, as was Matt Holman with a pair of goals. Rook- ie Geoff McNulty had the other Brooklin goal. Colley believes the success of his club through the first two games is a direct result of having a group of players happy to be Redmen. “I would like to think that is what it is. All these guys want to be here,” he said. “They come day in and day out ... they practice hard and we’re adding pieces. Hopefully at the season’s end we’ve got a whole bunch of W’s.” And that’s where the Rock wants to be. Coach and general manager Paul St. John said as much following the game. “Brooklin went through a lot of grow- ing pains with kids that didn’t want to play here that they drafted ... and we’re going through the same thing too,” he said, noting just one of the seven play- ers drafted this year, Bryan Neufeld, has reported. “We have a lot of guys we draft- ed that aren’t playing for us and if they were here, we’d be a way better club. We struggle offensively and we drafted a lot of offensive guys.” Neufeld scored a goal and an assist in his debut Wednesday for the Rock, a team that has scored a league low 16 goals in three games. With little help on the horizon, St. John said he and his players have to believe in what they’ve got and keep working hard with the expectation that they’ll eventu- ally be rewarded. “It’s really hard to be negative with the group I have because they are young and we’re going to have a lot of tough nights,” explained St. John. “You hope that they work hard and the odd night that they are better than those teams and they’ll sneak out a win. We did that last year with Brampton.” SABRINA BYRNES / METROLAND WHITBY -- Brooklin Redmen netminder John Cheeseborough made a save against Garrett Kikot of the Ajax Rock during Major Series Lacrosse action at Iroquois Park on Wednesday night. durhamregion.comNews Advertiser • June 3, 201119 P Want to know what’s happening in Pickering?

SOCCER Pickering Power reach finals in first tournament 1998 team falls short against Oakviille in final OSHAWA -- The Pickering Power Green 1998 girls’ team finished as finalists in its first tournament of the 2011 season at the Oshawa Kicks Frank Sobil Classic. The Power started the tournament by tying their first two games against a very determined Ajax ’99 squad and one of their league rivals, Richmond Hill. Both games ended in 0-0 scores. On Sunday morning the Power needed a win against a very talented Oakville side. The Power scored early in the first half and held on for the 1-0 victory. In the semifinal game, Pickering faced another tal- ented South Region team in Burlington. The Power played well and ran away 2-0 winners. The final game saw Pickering once again tak- ing on Oakville who quali- fied by beating Darlington in overtime in their semifi- nal match. Both teams played extremely well throughout the final, with Pickering getting a goal late in the first half. The score stayed that way until late in the game when Oakville got two penalty kicks. Oakville converted both kicks from the spot and went on to win the championship. Team members are Jes- sica Smart, Barry Donnel- ly (coach), Jackson Ben- nett, Amanda Wells, Bria Dowson-Chance, Maddi- son McCormick, Jordyn Demario, Kaylea Jamieson, Sydney Van Sickle, Victoria McCartney, Franco Taver- na (assistant coach), Nicole Remedios, Hailey Wilson, Kristin Park, Staci Torchia, Anna Taverna, Stepha- nie Lamanna, Zoe Brochu. Absent from the photo Josee Primeau (assistant coach), Jennifer Davis (manager). SUBMITTED PHOTO OSHAWA -- The Pickering Power Green 1998 soccer team reached the finals of its first tournament of the year in Oshawa.PICKERINGPICKERINGPICKERINGPICKERINGADVERTISING FEATURE Spring is in the air and after a long winter you’ve opened your windows to find that they are old, ugly or just in rough shape. There are several benefits to having new windows and doors in your home. First, they improve the overall look of your house and increase its value. New windows and doors are also much more energy efficient, which means you can keep your heating and air conditioning inside, reducing your monthly bills. It may be tempting to pick up some windows and install them yourself, but you may find that you’re not getting the highest quality windows and the installation is trickier than it seems. Even if you buy the best windows on the market, if they are not installed and sealed properly, they essentially become worthless. “If a window or door is not installed properly, you can get drafts coming into the house,” explains Wayne Hutchinson, owner of Durham Windows and Doors. “I often get calls from people who have tried to install windows themselves or have used a friend or family member to come out and fix the installation.” Homeowners can save themselves the cost and trouble by having their windows and doors done properly the first time. Specializing only in windows and doors, Wayne and his staff have earned a reputation for their great work. Wayne will come to your house to measure and will bring with him samples of the windows that he has available. Not only can you shop from the comfort of your own home, but you can also see exactly how the windows will look. “After being in this business for 34 years, I can honestly say these are the finest windows on the market,” says Wayne. “They’re triple sealed to reduce air leakage and come with heavy duty hardware.” All of the windows come with a lifetime warranty on the frame, hardware and glass. Homeowners may also be tempted to hire a company that is willing to work under the table. The problem is that while they may save money short-term, it could cost them everything in the long run. If a worker is not insured and gets injured in your home, you are liable. Fly by night companies also won’t be around to honour warranties or help with any issues that come up. All of the installers at Durham Windows and Doors are staff, not subcontractors, are fully insured and have their WSIB certificates. Durham Windows and Doors is located at 696 King Street West in Oshawa. For more information, please call Wayne at (905) 579- 2222 or 1-888-576-8575.

Lampricide will be applied for approximately 14 hours from designated application points as noted on the accompanying map. Treatment is tentatively scheduled during the period of June 06-08, 2011. The lampricide selectively kills lamprey larvae and may also cause mortality to other fish if under stress of spawning, or weakened by disease or other environmental factors. Although the lampricide is not harmful to humans or other animals at the concentrations used during the treatment, any use of stream water for irrigation and drinking should be suspended for a 24 hour period during this treatment period. jj uin 201 11 Le centre de lutte contre la lamproie marine de Pêches et Océans Canada (MPO), propose de traiter environ 34 km de la riviere Rouge avec le lampricide TFM afin de réduire le nombre de larves de lamproie marine. Le lampricide sera appliqué pendant environ 14 heures à partir de points d’application désignés tel qu’il est indiqué sur la carte d’accompagnement. Un traitement est proposé pendant la période du 06 au 08 juin 2011. Le lampricide tue sélectivement les larves de lamproie marine et peut également provoquer la mortalité d’autres poissons s’ils sont en train de subir le stress du frai ou s’ils sont affaiblis par la maladie ou d’autres facteurs du milieu. Bien que le lampricide ne présente aucun danger pour les êtres humains ou les autres animaux aux concentrations utilisées durant le traitement, il est recommandé d’interrompre toute utilisation de l’eau du cours d’eau aux fins d’irrigation ou de consommation pendant la période de 24 heures du traitement.
