DURHAM -- One of the participants in a
deadly Oshawa home invasion has been sen-
tenced to nine years in prison after plead-
ing guilty to manslaughter and aggravated
assault.
The crimes committed by Adam Squires in
June of 2010 warranted a prison term of at
least 13 years, but his cooperation with police
and prosecutors earned him a reduced sen-
tence, Ontario Court Justice Joseph De Filip-
pis said in a written judgment released Tues-
day.
“There are important public policy rea-
sons for rewarding an offender who coop-
erates with the police or Crown,” Justice De
Filippis wrote. “Ultimately, the true worth of
the defendant’s cooperation may be deter-
mined at the trial of others but at this time, it
appears to be significant.”

PICKERING -- A couple of turkeys are
costing a Pickering man $2,000 after
he was fined for illegal turkey hunting
offences.
According to the Ministry of Natural
Resources, Pickering’s Vasko Nikolovs-
ki was hunting on April 25, the opening
morning of wild turkey season, when he
entered a private property in the Town-
ship of Mariposa in the City of Kawartha
Lakes.
After placing decoys on the private
property, Mr. Nikolovski killed two wild
turkeys, but failed to immediately attach
game seals to the birds.
The property owner contacted the
Ministry of Natural Resources after hear-
ing gunshots and finding Mr. Nikolovski
trespassing on his land.
On July 22 in a Lindsay courtroom, Mr.
Nikolovski was fined $1,000 for unlaw-
fully hunting while trespassing, $500 for
unlawfully killing more than one turkey
in a day and $500 for failing to immedi-
ately attach a seal to a wild turkey.
Information on Ontario hunting regu-
lations are available at ServiceOntario
centres and online at ontario.ca/hunt-
ing.
To report a natural resources violation,
call 1-877-TIPS-MNR (847-7667) toll
free. To report anonymously, call Crime
Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477).

COUGHLAN HOMES SUPPORTS IMAGE IS EVERYTHING CAMPAIGN
$1,0 00 donation for every CreekWood new home purchase
July 2011, Ajax, ON –The warm weather has finally arrived and Durham Region’s new home market is heating up.
For every new home purchase in the community of CreekWood during the months of July and August, Coughlan
Homes will donate $1,000 to the Image is Everything campaign supporting the addition of an MRI scanner at the
Rouge Valley Ajax and Pickering hospital.
Without this essential diagnostic tool, physicians at Rouge Valley Ajax Pickering hospital have been forced to send
patients to other facilities, delaying their diagnosis, treatment and cure. With an MRI onsite, physicians will be able
to reduce patient wait times and use the most up-to-date equipment to accurately diagnose and treat their patients
in a timely manner. Coughlan Homes is proud to support the community in this way.
CreekWood—Coughlan Homes’ latest development—features single detached homes and townhomes
on 30’, 37’, and 40’ lots. With tableland forest and protected ravines encompassing the community,
CreekWood’s front porches and upper master bedroom balconies will help residents bring nature
indoors. Conveniently located just north of Rossland Road and west of Brock Road, CreekWood is close
to major highways, shopping centres and public transportation. The City of Pickering’s master plan for
theareadetailsanewschoolandawalkingtrailsystemthatwilleventuallylinktoDurhamRegion’swaterfronttrailsystem
at Lake Ontario.
Committed to improving the quality of life in the Ajax and Pickering communities for over 50 years, Coughlan Homes
is the Durham builder with a heart. Consider making CreekWood your next home and help Coughlan Homes give back
to your new community through funding the addition of an MRI scanner at Rouge Valley Ajax and Pickering hospital.
To view CreekWood homes and site plan, go to www.coughlanhomes.com, visit the Sales Presentation Centre at
2540 Brock Rd. in Pickering, just south of Ta unton Rd., or call 905.683.2727.
The Coughlan Group of Companies has pledged $120,000 towards the “Image is Everything” campaign. The
Coughlan Group includes Deer Creek Golf & Banquet Facility, Glen Cedars Golf Club, The Deer Creek Academy,
Coughlan Homes Parkway Storage and Coughlan Property Management Group. Throughout the spring and summer,
our employees, managers and owners will be working together to raise funds by hosting a variety of events. For more
information, call Lisa Willson at 905.427.7737 ext 230.

Wildlife
A miracle of nature
on our doorstep
To the editor:
Three weeks ago I was startled by a bird
fluttering out of our hanging basket of yel-
low petunias on our porch on Church
Street.
Thinking nothing of it, I watered the plant
and went back into the house. The next day
the bird was there again and I then realized
that I had a nest of mourning doves in the
basket.
I took the basket down and saw two small
white eggs.
Research on the Internet disclosed that
mourning dove eggs hatch in about two
weeks and the baby birds need another two
weeks before they can fly. I also learned
that watering the plant could destroy the
eggs and, as well, startle the parent into
abandoning the nest.
The father dove sits on the nest all day
and the mother dove sits on the nest all
night.
So we have not watered the plant for
three weeks and it has, of course, withered
and died, but we have watched two atten-
tive mourning doves attend to their nest
every day.
We now have two baby mourning doves
who are stretching their wings and will
soon be flying.
So when you walk or drive by our home,
do not look at the dead plant and think we
are poor gardeners, but look more closely
at the two little heads poking up and won-
der at the cycle of life and the marvel of
nature.

No cure yet found
for polio
To the editor:
Re: ‘Walking the walk in the fight to erad-
icate polio’ editorial opinion, durhamre-
gion.com, July 20, 2011.
Your editorial encourages the heroic
efforts of Rotary International in the fight
against polio, but mistakenly opens with a
reference to Dr. Jonas Salk’s “dedication to
finding a cure” for the disease.
Many older folks will remember that
Jonas Salk, Albert Sabin and their collab-
orators did not find a cure for polio in the
late 1940s and early 1950s. They developed
vaccines, administered either orally or
with an injection, that immunized individ-
uals and prevented them from contracting
the disease at all.
This is an important distinction as we
combat polio today. The disease is still
a threat, even for countries with effec-
tive childhood immunization programs,
because there is still no cure.
As your interview with Dr. Bob Scott
noted, once people contract the disease
their infected secretions may infect hun-
dreds more. Global immunization cam-
paigns eradicated smallpox -- another viral
killer for which no cure was ever found --
and these measures must be conducted
vigorously for polio as well.
Let’s support Rotary, health care work-
ers and international aid agencies with this
effort -- not to cure polio but to prevent
individuals from ever catching it.

Midday lawn watering
a waste of money
To the editor:
I read your recent story on water usage
with interest but it would have been much
more informative if you had told people
to stop wasting their time and money by
watering their grass during the hottest part
of the day.
You are damaging your grass because the
water is heating up on the hot ground and
not sinking into the soil! Water your grass
early in the morning or late at night, not
lunch time. It also annoys me when people
have sprinklers going but all they are get-
ting wet is the driveway, sidewalk, road and
cars. Do people like wasting their money?
You are paying for the water that is going
straight down the drain!

durhamregion.comKeep food safety on the menu when you fire up the grill
With this summer’s sizzling tempera-
tures, the tantalizing aroma of steaks and
burgers on the grill is common through-
out Durham.
But residents are reminded that the most
important ingredient for any barbecue or
picnic outing this summer should be food
safety.
According to the local health unit, food-
borne illness is more common than peo-
ple think. The Public Health Agency of
Canada estimates 11 million to 13 mil-
lion food-borne illnesses occur each year
in Canada. Symptoms include abdominal
cramps, diarrhea, nausea and vomiting.
Many cases of what people commonly
refer to as a ‘24-hour flu’ are actually the
result of food poisoning.
The risk of food poisoning is greater dur-
ing the summer since barbecuing and pic-
nicking are common hot weather activi-
ties for families and friends. The first step
to summer food safety is to get off to a
clean start. Wash hands, utensils and sur-
faces with hot, soapy water before, during
and after preparing foods. Sanitize coun-
tertops, cutting boards and utensils with a
mild bleach and water solution and wash
all produce thoroughly before preparing,
eating or cooking.
Another important step is ensuring
frozen food is thawed properly -- in the
refrigerator, by running it under cold run-
ning water or in a microwave oven. Thaw-
ing food on the kitchen counter at room
temperature is unsafe since this practice
can allow bacteria to grow.
In addition, the mantra of every cook
should be, ‘keep hot foods hot, minimum
60 C (140 F) and cold foods cold, at 4 C (40
F) or colder’. The risk of food poisoning
also increases if meats such as hamburg-
er, chicken or ribs are not properly han-
dled, prepared and cooked on a barbecue.
Under-cooked meat can be a breeding
ground for bacteria such as E.coli and sal-
monella, which creates a potential health
hazard for anyone who eats the contam-
inated food. To protect your family and
guests use a meat thermometer to ensure
the meat has reached a safe internal tem-
perature – poultry: 82 C (180 F), and beef/
pork/ground meats: 71 C (160 F).
Finally, the health unit urges all barbe-
cue and picnic hosts to keep the two-hour
rule in mind. Foods that can spoil should
not be left out at room temperature for
longer than two hours and leftovers must
be refrigerated or frozen as quickly as pos-
sible.
Following these food safety tips will
ensure your barbecue doesn’t turn into
a memorable occasion for all the wrong
reasons.

In the heat of summer, there’s nothing I enjoy
more than celebrating the season with my
fellow Durham residents. And, lucky for me,
there are always plenty of festivals going on
at this time of year, creating community spirit
from city to city.
One of my favourite ways to embrace sum-
mer is to sway and sing in the sun at an out-
door concert. If you’re looking to surround
yourself with activity, architecture and amaz-
ing ambiance in August, check out the Town
of Whitby’s Celebration Square Performances
at the Central Library, Summer in the Square
hosted at Ajax Town Hall’s Heritage Square,
the Clarington Arts and Music Festival at the
Orono Fairgrounds, and the Summer Breeze
Music Festival in downtown Port Perry.
Zooming into Oshawa on Aug. 26 is AutoFest
-- an event you definitely don’t want to miss.
Roll on into the city over the weekend for a
Show and Shine at Lakeview Park, Old Skool
Reunion, truck show, trunk sale, silent auc-
tion, prizes, awards and more. Whether you’re
a classic car owner, or just want to check out
some sweet rides, AutoFest is sure to deliver.
Visit www.autofestoshawa.com.
On Aug. 27 and 28, the Durham Pet Fest will
bring together pet lovers from across Ontario
to Cullen Central Park in Whitby. Stop by with
your furry friends and family members to gain
insight from pet industry professionals, and
take in a parade of breeds and pet fashion
show. You’ll also be supporting a good cause,
because proceeds from admission will be
donated to local pet-related non-profit orga-
nizations. Visit www.durhampetfest.com.
If you’d rather cool off by the water, the
region’s largest waterfront festival will be hap-
pening on Aug. 27 at the Ajax by the Lake
event. Feel the breeze and experience differ-
ent sites across the town’s waterfront, while
also enjoying kite flying, food, refreshments
and local heritage exhibitions. Visit www.
townofajax.com.
This Saturday, visit Fairview Lodge’s Sum-
mer Festival in Whitby. This event, hosted by
Region of Durham’s Social Services Depart-
ment will feature fun for the whole family.

A cluttered home is one that is typically
filled with memories. However, as the years
and the memories pile up, clutter can take
over a home. When that happens, residents
can feel uncomfortable and boxed in. Clut-
ter has even been linked to mental health is-
sues, most notably depression, as some men-
tal health professionals theorize that clutter
indicates a preoccupation with the past and
possibly a dim view of both the present and
the future.
Those who don't have an issue with clutter
might find it difficult to understand just how
difficult it can be to address. But removing
clutter is more than just boxing things up and
leaving them at the curb. To clear a home of
clutter, men and women should consider the
following tips.
* Enlist a friend to help. When people
work alone to conquer clutter, the process is
far more likely to draw out. That's because
individuals will likely find a reason to keep
everything they have, making decisions on
each and every item very difficult. Enlist the
help of friend who can help decide if an item
should be kept. Someone who isn't attached
to each knickknack and keepsake can likely
offer a more objective opinion on items clut-
tering up the home.
* Don't kid yourself about broken items.
Clutter collectors often have several items
around the house that they insist they'll get
around to fixing. When it comes to broken
items, men and women must be honest with
themselves as to the reality most items will
never be fixed. If an item has spent years ly-
ing around the house in need of patchwork,
then it's realistic to assume it will remain
broken. What's more, if a broken item like
a candy dish has already been replaced by a
candy dish that isn't in disrepair, it's safe to
discard the broken dish.
* Clean out the file cabinet. Clutter col-
lectors are often renowned for keeping
documents long after it's necessary to do so.
Though some documents, including tax re-
turns, boast longer-than-average shelf lives,
it's not necessary to retain all personal and
financial documents for years. The rule of
thumb with respect to keeping tax returns is
to hold on to them for seven years. Addition-
al documents, including mortgage papers, in-
vestment paperwork and other extraordinary
documents, should be held on to as well. But
there's no reason to hang on to documents like
utility bills, phone bills and even bank state-
ments for several years. Cleaning out the file
cabinet could clear up a significant amount
of space. When disposing of old documents,
do so with a paper shredder to increase secu-
rity.
* Embrace recycling. One way to turn clut-
ter into a positive is to embrace recycling.
One of the items clutter collectors commonly
accumulate is periodicals, be it newspapers
or magazines. For those who live in a com-
munity with curbside recycling, consult the
local recycling center to determine if they
collect periodicals. If not, arrange a time
when these items can be dropped off at the
center. Recycling old periodicals is good for
the environment and can help individuals liv-
ing in clutter quickly and easily clear out a
significant amount of it.
* Consider if there's a chance to make
money. A home full of clutter isn't necessar-
ily devoid of value. In fact, older items that
have done little more than collect dust could
actually be valuable. Cash can be a great mo-
tivator when it comes to clearing a home of
clutter. Turning clutter into cash can be done
in any number of ways. Yard sales, online
auction sites, local newspaper classified ads,
and even the local antique shop are a few
of the options men and women have if they
hope to turn their clutter into cash.

Mr. Squires, of Oshawa, was one of four
suspects charged in the June 25, 2010
robbery at the Ritson Road North apart-
ment of Derrick Brooks, 32, who bled to
death after being repeatedly stabbed as
he struggled with intruders in the early
morning darkness. Another man in the
apartment, Trevor Brown of Peterbor-
ough, was viciously beaten and left with
life-threatening injuries including a frac-
tured skull.
Mr. Squires fled to Alberta and was
arrested in May of 2011. Original-
ly charged with second-degree mur-
der, attempted murder and robbery, he
pleaded guilty to the reduced charges in
July.
Three other suspects, two men and a
woman, have been identified. Two have
been charged and await trial while one
man remains at large. A publication ban
protects their identities.
According to an agreed statement of
facts read into the record after his guilty
plea, Mr. Squires and his co-accused tar-
geted Mr. Brooks for a robbery, believing
he kept money and drugs in his upper-
floor apartment. Three men forced their
way into the apartment before dawn,
beating Mr. Brown with a metal bar when
he resisted.
Mr. Brooks, who was asleep in his bed-
room with his girlfriend, was stabbed
repeatedly as the intruders searched for
drugs and cash. Police officers respond-
ing to a 911 call found him bleeding pro-
fusely and pleading for help, crying out
that he was going to die. He was pro-
nounced dead shortly after 6 a.m. after
being rushed to hospital.
After he was arrested, Mr. Squires told
police he and his co-accused had not
planned to kill anyone, but had armed
themselves with knives and a metal bar
to intimidate Mr. Brooks.
“He also set out in detail the role played
by each person involved in the home
invasion,” Justice De Filippis noted.
It’s expected Mr. Squires will testify
against the others at trial, the judge said.
“His testimony is particularly significant
with respect to how Mr. Brooks died.”
Mr. Squires’s cooperation with the
authorities has led to fears for his safety,
Justice De Filippis said.
Although Mr. Squires pleaded guilty in
July, details of his case have until now
been covered by a sweeping publication
ban. The ban was challenged by Oshawa
This Week, a sister paper of the Ajax-
Pickering News Advertiser.
Justice De Filippis ruled Tuesday against
a Crown bid to have the ban upheld,
allowing coverage of Mr. Squires’s plea
while prohibiting reporting on details of
the co-accused.

Return home from
championships
with 17 medals
Mike Ruta
mruta@durhamregion.com
AJAX -- In their first Dance
World Championships, you might
think local dancers were content
to make an appearance and do
their best.
Think again.
The competitive team from the
Taylor Dance Centre in Ajax com-
peted in 17 events and brought
home 17 medals, including 10
golds.
“Out of all the other groups that
were there, I think we probably
did the best,” says director Margie
Taylor.
The event wrapped up last
month in Niagara Falls and attract-
ed teams from five continents and
roughly 30 countries, from the
U.S.A. to Ukraine and from Ger-
many to Ghana.
The Ajax dancers got into big
competition mode after dancing
in the nationals finals, held just
before the worlds, also in Niag-
ara Falls. So when they went up
against the world, were the but-
terflies fluttering in their stom-
achs, especially for those dancing
their first solos?
“Not really, because I’m used to
dancing on the stage,” says Bre-
anna Gunnyon, 12, of Ajax, who
picked up a gold in her jazz/acro
category.
A dancer for five years, she likes
“that I can show what I can do and
have fun doing it.”
Breanna dances tap, ballet, hip
hop, musical theatre and contem-
porary, but says jazz/acro is her
favourite.
Taylor explains that jazz/acro
combines the energy of jazz dance
with gymnastic tumbling.
Sydney Sudmals of Scarborough
returned from the event with three
golds, one in jazz and two in tap.
“It’s fun and I feel free to do
whatever I want,” the nine year old
says of dancing.
Sydney danced two solos, a jazz
and a musical theatre routine, and
Taylor explains it’s the dancers
themselves who make the deci-
sion to dance solo, which is more
complex than a group routine.
Breanna says she most liked the
showcase at the end of the event
in which the gold and some of the
silver-medal winners participat-
ed.
“I met a couple of people from
different places around the world,”
Sydney says.
Along with the 10 golds, Taylor
Dance Centre competitive team
members brought home four sil-
ver and three bronze medals.
“There was nobody (on the team)
that came home without medals,”
Taylor says.
The Taylor Dance Centre is
in its fourth year in Ajax, at 145
Kingston Rd. E., Unit 2 (at Salem
Road).

Durham names nominated

oshawa country bar the
corral gets nomination for
the country club of the
year category
DURHAM -- This year’s country music
award nominees include a Durham club
and a local radio personality.
The 2011 Canadian Country Music
Awards nominees were released July 27.

Joining the Orange

join the Orangemen men’s soccer program on scholarship.

PICKERING -- Changing teams couldn’t
have worked out better for Skylar Thomas.
The talented soccer player spent his for-
mative years playing for the Pickering Power
Extreme program, but when thoughts of
obtaining a scholarship crept to the fore-
front, Thomas joined up with the Ajax FC
Gunners program run by Tom Croft.
While Thomas insists the change of uni-
form had more to do with Croft’s history of
sending players off on scholarships than
anything else, regardless of his reasoning,
it proved to be a smart move for the six-
foot-three defender.
Last February Thomas signed a scholar-
ship with Syracuse University and will join
the Orangemen’s men’s soccer program
this coming season.
“Basically we went to a few showcas-
es and Syracuse watched me play. Then I
went to their school, I liked it, and it was
my first choice,” Thomas said of the process
that led to him signing with Syracuse.
“They were really nice. They treated me
well and made me feel like I was on the
team. I liked the facilities, it’s real grass
fields and everything. And it was a good
atmosphere.”
Thomas, who is also part of Canada’s U18
national program -- and hopes to one day
suit up for the men’s national team -- said
the feeling he got after signing that letter of
intent and confirming his choice to attend
Syracuse is something he won’t soon for-
get.
“It was actually one of the biggest
moments of my life when I signed. It was
a great feeling,” explained Thomas, who
will join forces as an Orangemen with U18
teammate and fellow defender James Mur-
rell of Markham.
Meanwhile, as excited as he is to be taking
this next step in his soccer career, Thom-
as’s new coach at Syracuse, Ian McIntyre,
didn’t hold anything back when comment-
ing on what Thomas’s addition to his pro-
gram means.
“We quickly identified Skylar as a play-
er who we felt could become an integral
part of our program as we moved forward,”
McIntyre said in a release on the team’s
website, announcing the signing of the for-
mer Dunbarton athlete and 11 others.
“In addition to his physical and techni-
cal talents he possesses the necessary intan-
gible qualities, personality and drive to be
successful here at Syracuse.”
Thomas, who estimates he was around the
age of seven when he got his start in soccer,
said he hopes to bring a lot to the pitch for
Syracuse in an effort to pay back the faith
they’ve shown in him with the scholarship
commitment.
“I like to think that I’m the kind of player
that likes to win the ball and then give it off
to someone to score a goal,” the defender
said.
“I like getting into hard tackles and I like
leading my team.”
While getting adjusted to the game at the
NCAA level will likely take some time, so too
will getting things in order away from the
game.
“Most of it will probably be getting my pri-
orities straight,” Thomas noted.
“I know school comes first, then soccer,
then friends and all that. It’s going to be
tough getting it in the right order and spend-
ing the right amount of time on each of
those.”

durham players
come up big for
ontario Blue Jays
MCKINNEY, TEXAS -- The Ontario
Blue Jays Baseball Club, comprised of
many of the top players from across the
province, won its first game of the Ameri-
can Amateur Baseball Congress 16 and
Under Mickey Mantle World Series.
The Jays beat the Indiana Pros-
pects, a team that came into the game as
the number-one ranked club in the United
States according to the Perfect Game
Scouting Service, by a 12-2 score.
Keeping the Indiana offence at bay
was Bowmanville’s Brodie Harkness,
who threw a complete game, allowing
just one earned run on three hits and a
walk, while striking out six.
Offensive contributions, meanwhile,
came up and down the batting order,
highlighted by a huge 10-run third inning
that blew the game wide open in favour
of the Blue Jays. Right-fielder Joey
Guaragna dealt the first blow with a two-
run double before centre-fielder Rayvon
Barless extended the lead with a bases-
clearing triple.
Designated hitter Malik Collymore
added a pair of hits and an RBI, while
Pickering catcher Sean Ratcliffe had an
RBI single. Third basemen Owen Spiwak,
shortstop Daniel Pinero, first basemen
Connor Stevenson and left-fielder Daniel
Szpik also had RBIs en route to the win.
Ontario will now play the winner of
Thursday’s game between Puerto Rico
and the host McKinney (Texas) Frozen
Rope at 8:30 p.m. Friday at Al Alford Sta-
dium in McKinney, Texas.

Ufc making a
return to ontario
TORONTO -- The UFC is planning
another trip to Toronto.
After the successful debut of the
mixed martial arts card at the Rogers
Centre back in April, it was only a mat-
ter of time before president Dana White
returned to the city that was home to one
of the biggest shows in the promotions
history, UFC 129.
This time around, according to a
report on sportsnet.ca, the event, UFC
140, will be held at the Air Canada Cen-
tre and is likely to feature fights involving
at least a pair of Canadians in Mark Hom-
inick and Pickering native Sean Pierson.
Both were on the UFC 129 card,
with Hominick going through a brutal
five-round battle with Jose Aldo and
Pierson losing to Jake Ellenberger, who
was thrown into the fight as a last-minute
replacement for the injured Brian Foster.
UFC 140 scheduled for Dec. 10.

RICHMOND HILL -- The

midgets won the 2011 Rich-
mond Hill Green and Gold
Classic Tournament.
Some of the tournament
highlights included the
Pickering club going unde-
feated throughout the tour-
nament, while pitcher Daniel
Connolly pitched a complete
game 2-0 shutout to clinch
the championship against
Markham. Andrew Murrell
was also instrumental in the
clinching game supplying a
game-winning triple.
Connolly wasn’t the only
hurler to notch a complete
game, as Ilija Bozinovski
turned the trick in the semi-
finals, pitching a gem against
North Toronto.
What’s more, during round
robin play, a pair of Pickering
pitchers, Kevin Watterson
and Cooper Gibbins, com-
bined to toss a no-hitter
against Richmond Hill.
The Red Sox roster is Coo-

SOCCER
Big event looms for Pickering soccer
PICKERING -- The Pickering
Soccer Club is going to be
hosting its first annual week-
end of friendly games for all-
star teams later this month.
Traditionally, teams have
played mostly in tourna-
ments and have had a dif-
ficult time connecting with
other teams to have games
where the kids can play with
less pressure and the coach-
es can watch them play and
learn how to make them a
better team.
But that is what the week-
end of Aug. 13-14 will be
all about as approximate-
ly 1,200 soccer players will
meet at three locations in
Pickering, Kinsmen Park,
Chris Graham Fields and
Princess Diana Fields.
This event is also aimed at
raising the image of the City
and the club with respect to
community successes and
soccer excellence.
A total of 20 Pickering Soc-
cer Club all-star teams took
the field this year, spon-
sored by Bessada Kia, Cut-
ting Edge Roofing, Subway
Restaurants and Boston
Pizza among many other
local businesses.
“I’m really excited to be
part of the team providing
this event in our commu-
nity” Liz Keen, director of
all-star events and tourna-
ments at the club, said in a
press release.
“It has been a long time
since we have held any kind
of soccer tournament local-
ly, and I’m proud to be a
part of it.”PICKERINGPICKERINGADVERTISING FEATURE The summer is finally here
and it’s time to soak up the rays! It’s
nice to not have to worry about salt
and slush making a mess of your car,
and this is the perfect time to let your
vehicle shine!
Diamond Shine offers a package that
fits every budget, from a hand wash starting at
just $19.95 to complete detailing. The vehicle is
hand washed, using high quality soap, and hand
dried with a chamois to achieve a brilliant shine.
The difference can be seen in the details!
Summer is also the perfect time to come
in for a professional wax and polish. The wax
will protect your vehicle from the elements,
including harmful UV rays and acid rain. After
a visit to Diamond Shine, your vehicle will have
a long lasting shine!
The products they use also make a
noticeable difference in the appearance and
maintenance of your vehicle. Diamond Shine
only uses high quality,
professional products that
are not available over the
counter. Here, they use
silicone-based products
that last, and even six
months after cleaning, a simple wipe of the dash
with a towel can bring back the shine!
It’s called detailing for a reason. At
Diamond Shine, their showroom package
leaves no small space untouched. To achieve
a showroom look, they use toothbrushes and
Q-Tips to get to the hard to reach areas. They
only use the best products, to ensure superior
results.
Interiors are vacuumed, shampooed and
detailed. Don’t let dog hairs and spilled drinks
spoil the interior of your vehicle! Bring it in to
Diamond Shine to be cleaned and have your
upholstery protected to keep it looking great all
summer long.
“We all work hard to afford our vehicles,
so it’s worth the small investment to maintain
them and keep them looking great,” says Joanne
Elawar of Diamond Shine. “We want to thank
everyone for putting their trust in us for the past
16 years, including both our loyal customers
and the many dealers in the area.”
