We always tell the students it’s a sport, so they have to treat it as a sport, and they do look at it differently. Teachers also love it because there’s so much etiquette involved, so you’re teach- ing them to behave as young ladies and gentlemen.” The competition was the first for stu- dents from Altona Forest, although the program has been a part of the curriculum for three years. The team consisted of 14 students from grades 6 through 8. “This was our first year in the competi- tion and we thought we would try because they had worked really hard,” said Nicole Petrou, a Grade 7 teacher who oversaw the program. “It was difficult because dance takes a lot of teamwork and collaboration, so this way they could show what they had learned.” Grade 8 student Bote Ejumudi has been a part of the program for two years, and this year learned the waltz and swing for the competition. “I wanted to learn to dance because I thought it would be something really inter- esting,” he said. “It was our first year in the competition so we didn’t think we would win the tro- phy or anything, we were all really sur- prised.” Partners Mikael Sonnylal and Rachel Takashima say they learned much more than how to move their feet. “It really teaches you how to co-operate with others because Ms. Hamdic taught us that no matter who you’re partnered up with, don’t be mean and be respectful,” Mikael said. “You also really get to know your partner and you learn how to read them without even talking,” Rachel added. The competition was initially supposed to be held on one day but had to be split into two separate events, with a second one held in Burlington, due to the over- whelming number of students who signed up. Ms. Hamdic said she thinks students enjoy the program so much because it’s active and involves teamwork, but there are also lifelong benefits they may not notice. “How many times do you go to a wed- ding and the dance floor is empty?” she asks. “It’s because no one knows what to do. This is a lifelong skill they’re being taught here. And the students all do so well at this, it really brings out the best in all of them.” Bayview Heights’ team of 16 students also fared well at the competition, plac- ing second overall behind Altona Forest in a field that included teams from Oshawa, Stouffville, Pickering, Markham, Scarbor- ough and North York.

Bote Ejumudi, Altona Forest Public School student durhamregion.comNews Advertiser • July 1, 20113 AP Kyle Ryan recognized for overall achievement, musical talents Moya Dillon mdillon@durhamregion.com PICKERING -- Over the course of five years as a cadet, Pickering’s Kyle Ryan has worked his way to the top of the provincial ranks. A warrant officer with the 1913 Ontar- io Regiment Cadet Corps in Oshawa, Kyle was awarded the Major-General W.A. How- ard Award for highest overall assessment in Ontario. “It’s really nice because it’s a recognition of the things I’ve been doing over my years in the corps, how I’ve given back and also what I’m working towards,” Kyle said of the award, which he received on June 5. “It’s really overwhelming getting these awards but it’s a really great feeling to know I have something that’s kind of a lasting impression of what I’ve done at the corps and all I’ve learned. It’s sort of a cumulative summary of my five years in the program.” Those five years have included quite an impressive performance that has reaped Kyle a host of awards, including Recruit of the Year in 2007, followed by Cadet of the Year in 2008 at his local corps, several awards for community service and commenda- tions for being the top cadet and then cadet instructor in Cadet Leader Courses. In May 2011 he was also recognized for his musi- cal skills, which include proficiency on the trumpet, harmonica, ukulele, guitar, banjo and jaw harp, with the Lieutenant-General J.W. Quinn award for Outstanding Army Cadet Military Band Musician. “It’s really great to be recognized, but I think it’s less about the work I did than the way I was helped through by other officers and people I met over the years,” Kyle said. “The Howard award was really the last step besides becoming a senior officer in my own unit, but until I leave the program I’m always going to be learning. Before I was learning so much every Cadets night, and now it’s more about me giving back and guiding the younger ones. It’s sort of a reversal of roles.” The 17-year-old Pickering High School student has his eye on attending Royal Mili- tary College of Canada after his senior year and hopes to enter the army afterwards with the goal of eventually becoming an infantry officer. Kyle credits the cadet program with teaching him valuable military and life skills and also for the creation of some lifelong friendships. “I’ve drawn a lot from the program, and so much that we’ve learned lasts a lifetime,” he said. “The things that stuck out for me included the military stuff and also just the general leadership skills, how to work in a team envi- ronment, that all really helped me. But it’s more about the friends I’ve made in cadets; they’re the ones who are going to stay with me because of the bond you share when you’re sleeping, eating and learning beside each other during summer programs.” Kyle stands to forge even more lifelong friendships this summer, as he is scheduled to begin a five-week parachuting course at CFB Trenton on Monday, July 4. “It’s exciting because it’s one of the most prestigious things a cadet can do because it’s the only qualification that carries over if you join the army,” Kyle explained. “You train with real soldiers, so it’s going to be a pretty crazy summer.” Once he returns Kyle will continue with his regular community service, which includes spending social time with residents and performing at the Pickering Community Nursing Home, playing with the Pickering Concert Band and playing the Last Post for Remembrance Day events and veterans’ funerals in Durham Region.

Move comes one day after Province gives thumbs up Keith GilliGan kgilligan@durhamregion.com DURHAM -- Regional councillors have decid- ed they want a more in-depth look at how the proposed Courtice incinerator will operate before dealing with a co-owners’ agreement with York Region. On Tuesday, the Province approved the Certificate of Approval (CofA), which outlines how the incinerator will operate. Councillors on Wednesday decided they want a look at the CofA before approving the agreement with York. Regional Chairman Roger Anderson announced at the beginning of the meeting Wednesday, the final one before the summer recess, that the Province approved the CofA. “The Certificate of Approval meets or exceeds every one of the requirements under the A7 (provincial environmental standards) guidelines. The A7 guidelines are the most stringent guidelines in the world,” Mr. Ander- son stated. Incinerator opponent Wendy Bracken had planned to speak with councillors about the differences in the CofA and the environmen- tal assessment, completed in June of 2009. “I was taken aback by the announcement this morning,” Ms. Bracken said. She urged councillors to delay approving the co-owners’ agreement, noting councillors haven’t received any updated medical opin- ions. The last medical input was when the EA was completed and “things have changed.” Without medical input and other safe- guards, “you would basically be throwing your own Durham residents under the bus,” she said. The co-owners’ agreement is “such an important document, you can’t endorse it as it is,” Ms. Bracken added. Without a medical opinion on differences between the environmental assessment and the CofA, “you can’t proceed until you get that (opinion). Basically, it’s a crap shoot. You can’t proceed until you get a medical opin- ion,” she said. Another incinerator opponent, Linda Gas- ser, said, “The announcement did catch me by surprise. The only thing state of the art is the spin around this thing.” That upset Mr. Anderson, who cut her off and said, “Don’t suggest anyone in this room, council or staff, put any spin on this thing.” If she made the accusation again, he would stop her from speaking, he added. Ms. Gasser questioned the timing of the announcement on the CofA, noting, “It comes the day before you recess for the summer. I would like to think it’s a big shock for you.” Of the co-owners’ agreement, “You’re not just throwing residents under the bus, it’s also reversing and driving over them again,” Ms. Gasser said. “You don’t know what the costs of the CofA are. You don’t even have the costs for the environmental assessment. “I urge you do to what you were elected to do. Review the Certificate of Approval. Don’t approve the co-owners’ agreement,” she said. “For councillors who ran on a platform opposing the incinerator, well, how hard do you oppose it?” Oshawa Councillor Nancy Diamond suc- ceeded in having approval of the co-own- ers’ agreement delayed until the CofA can be looked at. “A very important thing to me is we don’t know what’s in the Certificate of Approval,” said Coun. Diamond. Mr. Anderson said he didn’t want the matter to wait until September, saying he would call a special council meeting, probably in July, to deal with the issues. Durham and York hope to start construc- tion of the incinerator, on Osbourne Road in Clarington, later this year and have it operat- ing by 2014. reGion Durham delays final incinerator approval LinDA GAsseRRoGeR AnDeRson You’re not just throwing residents under the bus, it’s also reversing and driving over them again.

DURHAM -- Anyone looking for fun long weekend activities can add swimming to their list as all Durham beaches have been posted safe for swimming. The Durham Region Health Department is currently testing waters at 13 public beaches as part of its ongoing 2011 beach monitoring program. Test results for the week of June 27 indicate all beaches are safe for swimming, except for Rotary Park beach in Ajax, which is closed due to ongo- ing work by the Town. Beaches posted as safe are: Beaverton Beach North, Beaverton Beach South and Thorah Centennial Park, all in Brock. Bowmanville Beach East, Bowmanville Beach West and Newcastle Beach Central, all in Clarington. Frenchman’s Bay East and Frenchman’s Bay West in Pickering. Kinsmen Beach in Scugog. Lakeview Beach East and Lakeview Beach West in Oshawa. Pickering Beach in Ajax. Whitby Beach in Whitby. Durham Region’s health department collects samples at area beaches during the summer to ensure the water is safe for swimming. Beaches are posted as unsafe for swimming when elevated levels of E. coli exceed the Ontario Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care standard of 100 E. coli per 100 ml of water. The Health Department reminds res- idents not to swim within 48 hours of a heavy rainfall as bacteria levels can increase due to run-off.

REGION All Durham beaches open for swimming OSHAWA -- An Oshawa convenience store owner has been charged after police seized what they say are hundreds of counter- feit DVDs of recently-released Hollywood movies. Durham cops following up on a tip began investigating the Dairy Way store on Midtown Drive in early June, watching as customers purchased movies. Most of the movies, police said, were copies of films that had just been released in theatres. On June 4 cops raided the store, arresting the owner and two men accused of acting as accomplices. They seized nearly 1,700 DVDs which have been identi- fied as illegal copies of films. Charged with fraud and possession of prop- erty obtained by crime are Suman Tharmara- jah, 32, of Ritchie Avenue, Ajax; Thanendran Parameshwaran, 32, of Carolbreen Square, Scarborough, and Chandrakumar Raveenthi- ran, 30, of Richmond Park Boulevard, Scar- borough. pOlIcE Ajax man charged in DVD seizure from Oshawa store 1360 Kingston Road (in the Hub Plaza,across from Pickering To wn Centre) www.alexandersmusicstudios.com •905-420-6741 Yo ur RCM Practical Exam Centre in Pickering • “Start well, and the finish will take care of itself!” Register now for the summer term •All Instruments,Vo ice, &Theory –Flexible scheduling in July &August Special discount rates apply until August 20 •Ask us about our Achievers Programs Prepare for Summer RCM Exams We guarantee First Class Honours (80%) on RCM Exams “THEPROOFofthe PUDDING….” 15 of 21 June exam entrants achieved 87% or higher 10 of 21 attained the RCM’s elite “With Distinction” level with marks of 90% or higher SPECIALCONGRATULAT IONS TO OUR TOP FIVE ACHIEVERS Korey Antony Craig-Davis –95% Tiffany Mulholland –94% Matthew Baleanu –93% StefanDraghici –93% Matthew Kv rgic –92% RVHS Hospital staff is great, under-funding the issue To the editor: Re: ‘Patient values take priority at Ajax and Pickering hospital’, news, durhamre- gion.com, June 15, 2011. I was just returning home from hospital with my 17-year-old son, whose experience with ‘day’ surgery had spanned almost a week. The health care crisis, which we have now experienced first-hand, is a result of complicated processes, lack of funding and an ever-growing patient burden. However, the health care profession- als working at the Ajax-Pickering Hospital are caring, compassionate people who are equally frustrated with the environment in which work. My son tore his Achilles ten- don and required surgery; it was considered “urgent” but not critical. This type of sur- gery is scheduled as an add-on, performed after procedures that have been booked for months, and likely to be “bumped” if an emergency comes up, which is exactly what happened to us twice. For two days in a row, we were admitted and prepared for surgery only to be sent home after hours of waiting. On day num- ber three, we were admitted with the risk of yet again being bumped. I felt it necessary to escalate our situation. A phone call to the manager of OR resulted in surgery at 10 p.m. with the surgeon and staff staying well past their scheduled shifts to operate. I have the highest regard for the staff who work in this challenging environment. They have a difficult job to do and they do it admi- rably, in the face of shortages and cutbacks. Our heartfelt thanks goes to the staff of the Ajax Pickering hospital for the kind and dedicated care they gave to our family. Suzanne George Ajax Patient care is of utmost importance To the editor: Re: ‘Patient values take priority at Ajax and Pickering hospital’, news, durhamre- gion.com, June 15, 2011. This article really upset me. I was very upset to read about Cecile Wil- lert’s lack of patient care following her sur- gery at Rouge Valley Ajax Hospital. I have been going to this hospital for several rea- sons over the 16 years that we have lived here. I have seen awesome care and some not-so-great care from the hospital. Most of my experiences at the hospi- tal have been good. However, to release someone after 23 hours for a hysterectomy is ludicrous. Cecile and her husband both complained and it still did no good? Then why do they have these complaint committees? This is maddening and abso- lutely not acceptable -- what happened to our medical ethics? What happened to the value of a patient’s life? I too, had the same surgery about four years ago and had an incredibly positive experience, and to top it off, I was kept a whole week in order to heal. I wasn’t rushed, and have good memories of a very difficult decision to have this sur- gery. Recently, though, I am hearing about some not-so-great care at the Ajax location. Spend thousands on upgrading the hospi- tal, but what about the service and care for patients? Isn’t that more important? Rose Suongas Ajax InfRaStRuctuRe Money a mere abstract To the editor: Re: ‘Ontario’s fiscal challenge will require co-operation, creativity’ editorial opinion, durhamregion.com, June 23, 2011. Your editorial laments the daunting $100 billion needed to provide repair and build- ing of Ontario’s infrastructure. That per- spective completely ignores the fact that money is an abstract. “Do we have enough materials and labour and machinery?” should be the question. With flagging economic activity, there is apparently no shortage of those ‘valuable’ things. With money a mere abstract, the bookkeeping exercise (read tax system) is the key important one. The ideal solution rears it head; we have an unused and pub- licly owned Bank of Canada created specif- ically to provide financing for the country’s infrastructure. The profits or dividend from the use of our bank goes directly to the fed- eral government’s revenue, thus reducing the burden of income taxes. Anyone who would suggest that the Bank of Canada financing public infrastructure would cause inflation is ignorant of the way that money is created and cancelled.

While a Patient Declaration of Values is being implemented at Rouge Valley Health System hospitals, including the Ajax facil- ity, it needs to be a proactive policy and not a reactionary one. After Cecile Willert’s experience in Ajax, the sooner it’s ready the better. The Ajax resident had major surgery in Ajax late last month and was scheduled to be discharged at 10 a.m. the next day. But Ms. Willert apparently wasn’t well enough to leave. She felt dizzy and nauseous when she got up to go and told the nurse, who maintained she was fine. The nurse tested her pulse, which Ms. Willert said was below her normal rate, but insisted she was good to go. “It was really just the lack of acknowl- edgement of what I said and the symptoms they had in front of them,” Ms. Willert told the News Advertiser. “I’m not sure what else I could do as a patient, because I did complain, and my husband complained.” Ms. Willert acknowledges that her symp- toms did subside hours after return- ing home, but she and her husband “just couldn’t believe” the push they got out the door. To top it off, there was no wheelchair available for her. Hospital spokesman David Brazeau says “we are by no means perfect” and the sys- tem welcomes criticism it can learn from. While he says the hospital does have a complaints process, it wouldn’t have been any help to Ms. Willert and her husband that day last month. The Patient Declaration of Values is man- dated by the provincial government. Look- ing at it at www.rougevalley.ca, many of the statements are fairly general, such as “I will receive the best quality care,” and “I will be cared for with compassion and respect for me, my family and friends.” These should be a given. Some are a bit ironic given Ms. Willert’s experience: “I will be an active participant in my care and my discharge,” “I will be lis- tened to about my care. My family may be involved in my care” and, especially, “I will have a voice of my own, or through whoev- er I choose.” In her experience, Ms. Willert’s voice didn’t appear to count for much. And that shows a lack of respect. The RVHS needs to walk the walk in terms of patient care, incorporating what the dec- laration of values espouses into the daily practices of all staff members. durhamregion.comNews Advertiser • July 1, 20117 AP Kerri King It’s time to celebrate the birth of our great country.

Ajax-Pickering MPP Joe Dickson announced recently that Satya Sanatan Dharma Cultural Sabha of Canada, also known as Devi Mandir, will receive $422,300 over 18 months. The money will go towards repairs and upgrades of the facility includ- ing the installation of a solar panel roof system and an expansion and renovation of the kitchen. The funds come from the Province’s Community Capital Fund, administered by the Ontario Trilli- um Foundation, which is a $50-million fund help- ing non-profit organizations with capital projects. Devi Mandir, located on Brock Road in Pickering, serves the South East Asian community in Ajax and Pickering. “Local non-profit organizations deliver programs that people depend on to improve their quality of life,” said Mr. Dickson. “This support from the Prov- ince of Ontario is helping our friends at the Devi Mandir continue important work that will help individuals contribute more to our economy.” Vishnu Sookar, chairman of Devi Mandir, expressed his thanks. “The Devi Mandir appreciates the confidence shown by the Ontario Trillium Foundation in the work that we do in the Durham Region and broad- er GTA,” he said. “We are proud of our contribution to the betterment of the lives of so many, and wish to thank the Government of Ontario for its sup- port.” community Provincial grant for Pickering’s Devi Mandir temple durhamregion.comNews Advertiser • July 1, 20119 AP 3 buy1get2 * 2 teg 2 teg * 2 teg 2 tegfreeeerfeerfeerfeerf1 SuperSpecialrepuS Sandals,Shoes&Accessories repuS laicepSrepuSlaicepSCanadaDay! 1 yub 2 teg1 yub3 1 yub 2 teg1 yub 2 teg1 yub 1 yub 1 yub 1 yub3 1 yub 1 yub 1 yub 1 yub111 seirosseccA & seohS ,sladnaS seirosseccA & seohS ,sladnaS jewelry,sunglasses,belts...etc311131113111for CANADADAY!

Lawn arden Advertising FeatureG&Home, Few fl ags are as strikingly simple and as easily recognizable as the National Flag of Canada, also referred to as the Canadian Flag. An 11-point maple leaf on a white background fl anked by red borders has been the adopted fl ag since 1965, despite Canada being an independent country since 1867. Before the adoption of a national fl ag, several incarnations were used. During the early days of the Canadian Confederation, the Royal Union Flag, also known as the Union Jack, was fl own in Canadian North America. After Canada earned its independence, the Red Ensign Flag was used from about 1870 until 1924. Red and white were used on the fl ag, and eventually they became the offi cial colours of Canada. The Red Ensign featured a red background with the Union Jack in the upper left corner and a composite shield featuring the coats of arms of the Canadian provinces. The shield was later replaced by the Royal Coat of Arms of Canada and adopted as the unoffi cial fl ag for general use for some time. There had been a few attempts at designing and implementing an offi cial national fl ag under the advisement of Prime Minister Mackensie King, but the attempts were unsuccessful. The fl ag was eventually adopted under Prime Minister Lester Pearson. Pearson appointed a 15-person committee to adopt a fl ag and gave them a six-week deadline. The maple leaf design was suggested by George Stanley, a professor at Royal Military College in Kingston, Ontario. The maple leaf holds no specifi c signifi cance for Canada, nor does its 11-point design. The leaf had been used as an unoffi cial national symbol and appeared on some decorations for visiting dignitaries. Evolution of the Canadian agEvolution of the Canadian agEvolution of the Canadian ag Just as with other nations, there is fl ag etiquette that should be maintained when displaying the National Flag of Canada. When strung to a fl agpole in a horizontal manner, the fl ag should be displayed to the right. When the fl ag is displayed vertically, the top points of the maple leaf should be facing the left. There is no formal way of folding the Canadian fl ag. It took until the mid-1960s for an offi cial national fl ag to be adopted for general use in Canada. Happy Canada Day! durhamregion.comNews Advertiser • July 1, 201111 AP Mike Ruta Entertainment Editor mruta@durhamregion.com durhamregion.comEntertainment theatre ‘The Scottish play’ comes to Durham the Bard’s Bus tour presents Macbeth DURHAM -- Durham theatre groups are gearing down for the summer season, which means it’s almost time for Shakespeare in the park. The Driftwood Theatre Company, founded and run by Oshawa native Jeremy Smith, is once again bring- ing The Bard’s Bus Tour to outdoor venues across Durham over the next two months. First up is a July 12 performance at Oshawa’s Park- wood Estate. This year’s play is Shakespeare’s dark tragedy, Macbeth, but dare we mention its name? In theatre circles some believe the play is cursed and will not refer to it by name, instead calling it “the Scottish play.” The production features Peter van Ges- tel as Macbeth and Janick Hebert as Lady Macbeth. Show time is 7:30 p.m. and admis- sion is pay what you can, with $15 suggested. Audience members can reserve their blanket/lawn chair seating in advance by paying the full recommended $15 admission fee. Advance tickets are available. Visit www.driftwoodtheatre.com/ BardsBusTour.htm, where there are also directions to each of the ven- ues. Here’s the schedule, including a few out-of-town dates in case you’re at the cottage. In the event of rain, some performances are moved to a nearby indoor location. July 12 -- Parkwood Estate*, Oshawa July 13 -- Esplanade Park*, Pickering July 14 -- Rotary Park*, Ajax July 24 -- Palmer Park, Port Perry July 26 -- Lakeview Park, Oshawa July 29 -- Kawartha Settlers’ Vil- lage, Bobcaygeon July 30 -- Memorial Park*, Mar- mora July 31 -- Peterborough Muse- um*, Peterborough Aug. 2 -- Centennial Park, City of Quinte West Aug. 3 -- Centre Hastings Park*, Madoc Aug. 6 -- Zwick’s Park*, Belleville Aug. 7 -- Victoria Park, Cobourg Aug. 9 -- Celebration Square*, Whitby Aug. 10 -- Greenwood Park*, Greenwood (north Pickering) Aug. 11 -- Visual Arts Centre of Clarington*, Bowmanville An asterisk indicates there’s an indoor spot if it rains.

It’s a country-wide celebration Sept. 30, Oct. 1 and 2 designed to raise awareness, participation and engagement in arts and culture. Kerri King, Durham Region’s tourism manager, says 38 events took place across Durham last year as part of Culture Days, from open houses to art exhibitions. “I think the biggest challenge last year was just getting the word out because it was the first year,” she says. “A lot of the groups last year actu- ally took existing events that were planned and kind of morphed them into Culture Days.” As well, she noted several partic- ipants made last-minute decisions to be a part of the celebration. This year, she’s hoping even more groups and individuals take part. King notes that the only real guideline is that the event has to be free of charge. While national organizers hope the events offered are interactive and allow visitors, to a theatre, for example, a behind- the-scenes look at a production or a theatre company, it’s not set in stone. King says a cooking demonstra- tion or fashion show could be a part of Culture Days in Durham. “It can be tied to arts and heritage and culture,” she says. “It’s a great way to pull the community together.” K i n g encourages those who are planning a Culture Days event to register it both at www.durham- tourism.ca and at www.culture- days.ca as soon as possible. The Durham events will be listed on www.durhamtourism.ca. She notes that 71 per cent of visi- tors to Durham are here to visit friends or relatives. So King encourages Durham res- idents to become informed so they can spread the word about what’s happening here for Culture Days. “Our strategy in Durham, a lot of it has been to ensure that the peo- ple living in Durham Region know what’s going on so they’re our ambassadors,” she says. For more information on Cul- ture Days in Durham, call Dur- ham Tourism at 1-800-413-0017 or e-mail tourism@durham.ca.

However his life and artistic career are an incredibly inspiring story of struggle, survival and personal and artistic achieve- ment. Born in Riga, Latvia in 1929, he lost his mom at the age of six. Lap- ins was just 10 when the Second World War broke out around him -- with invasions by the Russians, the Germans, then the Russians again, both countries committing atrocities on the populace. Lapins drifted through European refugee camps as a teen, eventually ending up in England in 1947. There he worked at various jobs and studied art -- a passion from his childhood that naturally came from being the son of a highly artistic mother. In 1952, he immigrated to Can- ada and found work as a sod-lay- ing landscaper and as a hospital orderly before being hired and trained as an X-ray technologist at Toronto Western Hospital. Even- tually he worked his way up to the post of chief of radiology. In the early 1970s, he gained a teaching certificate from Ryerson and began a parallel career teach- ing radiology. Meanwhile, Lapins was making art in his spare time and also man- aging to take classes: in life draw- ing and print making at the AGO and portrait painting at OCADU. He then earned a degree in fine art (studio), studying on a part-time basis at U of T. He also joined the Willowdale Group of Artists and participated in their exhibition events. Lapins’s first solo show was at the Latvian Cultural Centre in Toronto in 1984 and since moving to Pickering in the early 90s, he has shown at the Ajax Main Library Branch and at the OPG Informa- tion Centre Gallery, as well as group shows with the Latvian art- ists’ group, Latvis. As one might expect from his background, Lapins’s artistic themes mirror the sociological and political upheavals of his early life -- mostly reflected in a number of series of etchings -- but also in numerous oil paintings. But he also celebrates the joy he has found in life in pastel florals, oil landscapes and exuberant cub- ist-like abstracts. “Making art is a way of getting things off my chest, of making life understandable,” he says. Find contact information and examples of the work of this very accomplished artist at www.lap- ins-artstudio.com. Allan O’Marra is a professional artist living and working in Ajax.

Allan’s Artists Brad Kelly Sports Editor bkelly@durhamregion.com durhamregion.com facebook.com/sportsdurhamregion twitter.com/scnewsdurhamSports durhamregion.comNews Advertiser • July 1, 201114 AP NHL Draft Kings crown Andreoff Pickering forward selected 80th overall by Los angeles BraD KeLLy bkelly@durhamregion.com PICKERING -- Andy Andreoff was being a good teammate during the National Hockey League draft, watching and listening to find out where his buddies on the Oshawa Generals were going to get drafted. And then he heard his own name. The Pickering resident, already passed over twice in drafts he was eligible to be selected in, was picked in the third round, 80th overall, on Saturday by the Los Angeles Kings. “I was watching it more for Boone (Jenner) and (Lucas) Lessio to get drafted because they were going to go high second round. I was watching for them,” he says of how he was spending his Saturday afternoon, as rounds two through seven of the National Hockey League draft was being broadcast on the NHL Network from the Xcel Energy Center in Min- nesota, home of the Wild. Turns out his prog- nostication was right, as Jenner went early in the second round to Columbus and Lessio a little later to Phoenix. A round later, it was his turn. “I kind of heard my name in the background but I wasn’t sure, so I clicked on the refresh page and my name popped up,” he says of checking the internet. “I was thinking more towards going to a free agent camp. I was excit- ed about getting invited there. Getting drafted is even better so I’m looking forward to going to camp.” The free agent route is usually the one taken by undrafted 20 year olds, and Andreoff was resigned to the fact that was going to be his path to pro hockey. He didn’t even bother to attend the 2009 draft at the Bell Centre in Montreal in his first year of eligibility after being ranked 168th among North American skaters. But this past season with the Generals it all came together for Andreoff, who posted 33-42- 75 point totals in 66 regular season games. He also added another 11 points in 10 playoff games. His +34 rating and 109 penalty minutes in the regular season led the team in both cat- egories. Scouts began to speak with him on a more frequent basis toward the end of the season and into the playoffs, telling him that if he wasn’t drafted, they would put something together for him to attend a free agent camp this sum- mer. Generals GM/head coach Chris DePie- ro was also getting more and more calls about Andreoff as the draft drew closer. “It’s just a testament to every year getting bet- ter and it’s a great example, I would hope, for a lot of hockey players that want and expect to get drafted in their first couple of years of eligi- bility,” says DePiero. “Here’s a guy that just kept getting better after every summer and com- ing in and having fantastic years and making a commitment to himself, and you know what, he got rewarded. I’m very, very proud of Andy and where he’s come in the last few years. “He made a commitment last summer and worked with our strength and conditioning coach, Mark Fitzgerald, with respect to that, and came into camp last year, and was physi- cally a big, strong man. I think he started to believe he could be a good player.” Andreoff credited his rise to learning off teammates and being given a chance to prove himself by DePiero. “Over the years I’ve been learning off people on the team. My first year I learned from John Tavares. I just kept building and ended up get- ting my confidence. I was working hard in the summer and it paid off. My coach kept giving me chances and I took advantage of them and it worked out in my way.” Next is a trip to a rookie camp in Los Ange- les on July 10, and beyond that, Andreoff isn’t sure what next season will bring. He can return to the Generals as an overage player, or begin a pro career. It’s a win-win scenario. “I guess it depends if they need guys on LA or the farm team,” he says. “We’ll see how I do at camp and if I do well, maybe they will want me to play minor pro. If not, I’ll definitely be so excited to go back to the Generals because we’re going to have a Memorial Cup team next year. “Either way, it will be a good year.” --with files from Brian McNair terry WiLsoN / oHL images PICKERING -- Andy Andreoff, a Pickering resident with the Oshawa Generals, was drafted in the third round, 80th overall by the Los Angeles Kings.

The team’s journey to the national championships began in April as they competed in the 14U Ontario championships at RIM Park in Waterloo. The opening day wasn’t very promising as the girls lost their initial match to the gold medal- winning Storm Bolt from Aurora, lost a heartbreaker in the third set to Ms Pakman, and then fell to the Maverick Gold Diggers. Day 2 was better, defeating the Spartans and Burlington Blaze before losing a close match to Forest City, relegating the team to Division I Tier 2. During the playoffs, Durham Attack’s road to the final saw them defeat the Acts Elites, Lakeside Breakers and Stratford Stripes. Durham Attack went on to lose the final match to the South County Teal Bandits, capturing the 14U silver medal. The team then went on to play up an age division to compete in the 15U Ontario championships the following weekend. After going undefeated in two days against teams an age older, Durham Attack ran into the No. 1 seed SCTV Shock. Durham Attack fell short, losing in the third set, forcing the team to play against the Diamonds in the bronze medal match. The team dominated in the first set, but the Diamonds forced a third and deciding set. Durham Attack took the third set 15-8 to capture a bronze medal in the 15U Divi- sion 2 Tier 2. Durham Attack 14U Black headed to Quebec with both sil- ver and bronze provincial med- als, determined to win another medal -- this time gold. On Day 3 of the east national championship, the team faced Ontario Interclub Black in the quarter-finals, defeating them 25-18, 25-13. The semifinal match saw the team matched up against Ms Pakman, the same team that defeated Durham Attack in the 14U provincials. Durham Attack’s aggres- sive onslaught concluded the rematch with two straight vic- tory winning sets, 25-20 and 25-13. Continuing their domina- tion to the final, Durham Attack faced arch rivals Northumber- land Breakers. Durham Attack had to rely on their explosive offence and quick defence to pull them through a 25-20 first-set victory. The Breakers did not back down as they continued to swing hard and serve tough. Durham Attack, however, were too much to han- dle as they held the momentum of the first-set victory to take the second set 25-19, winning the Tier 3 east national champion- ship. Coaches include Rob Piccione, Jeff Simmonds and Camille Lafaive. The team consists of Cassie Perau, Kelsey Harris, Chloe Michaud, Jalisa Sterling- Flemmings, Tristen Tamblyn, Hannah Smith, Amanda Mulhol- land, Jessica Walker, Lexie Prin- zen, Madison Kondo, Michelle Crutchley and Braedyn Tutton. JASON LIEBREGTS / METROLAND Taking aim AJAX -- William McKechnie lined up his shot during the dart event as part of the Durham Region Senior Summer Games at the Ajax Legion. HOCKEY Generals add forward in import draft OSHAWA -- Despite what would appear to be more pressing needs elsewhere, the Oshawa Generals continue to stock up on forwards. With the 46th overall pick in Wednesday’s Canadian Hockey League import draft, Generals head coach and general manager Chris DePiero select- ed 18-year-old right winger Sebastian Uvira from Germany. The six-foot-one, 190-pound Uvira had 13 goals, 32 points and 102 pen- alty minutes in 29 games with the EV Landshut Jr. U-18 team last season, while also spending some time with the Landshut Cannibals in Germany’s sec- ond tier professional league, where he had one goal, one assist and 12 penalty minutes in 23 games. He helped his junior team win the DNL Championship by scoring six goals and three assists in nine games and also represented Germany at the IIHF World Under-18 Hockey Champion- ships, where he scored a goal and had an assist in six tournament games.PICKERINGPICKERINGADVERTISING FEATURE When it comes to making vehicles look their best, there is one place that the major car dealerships in Pickering turn to: Shammy’s Auto Detailing. Luckily, Shammy’s is also open to the public, which means you can have your vehicle looking and smelling like new! In business for over 10 years, Shammy’s is well known in the community for their great work. The great staff work hard to clean your vehicle inside and out.

The Silver package includes an exterior wash, clean rims, tires and wheel wells, clean windows inside and out, interior vacuum, interior wipe down and dress tires, starting from $29.95. The Gold package includes everything in the Silver package plus an interior shampoo starting from $120. To really make your vehicle shine inside and out, opt for the Platinum package, which adds a clay bar treatment, engine shampoo, exterior compound to remove light scratches and surface oxidization, high speed polish for a sparking shine, paint sealant applicant and minor paint touch-ups, starting at $150. Customers can also opt for fabric protection, an easy way to protect your vehicle’s fabrics from stains and spills. Treating the leather in your vehicle will help prevent cracking, stops the colour from fading and extends the life of the leather.
