The three-person committee voted unanimously to proceed with legal action during a meeting on June 6, after a compliance audit into Coun. Dickerson’s 2010 municipal election campaign finances found several contraventions of the Municipal Elections Act. Coun. Dickerson, re-elected Ward 2 City councillor in the 2010 election, his 13th election campaign since 1976, spoke to the committee in defence of his actions. “I have stated and continue to state that the Municipal Election Act is fraught with inconsis- tencies and vagueness,” he told the committee.

Some key goals for the downtown that came out of public consultation include transforming and urbanizing Kingston Road, treating Glenanna and Valley Farm roads as walkable main streets, enhanc- ing connectivity with and to the downtown south of Hwy. 401, creating new public spaces, having a green focus and expand- ing the Pickering Town Centre. The suggestions were collected as part of the City’s downtown intensification study, which will result in a plan for the build-up of downtown Pickering over the next 20 years. Melanie Hare, a consultant from Urban Strategies, spoke to councillors about how far the process has come during a plan- ning and development meeting on June 4. “This is an important and exciting pro- cess,” Ms. Hare said. “We are working to define the future of an emerging downtown, one which has many of the key ingredients of today but has room to grow and is a focus for your growth and setting a direction for your city.” Consultants and City staff held a day- long stakeholders meeting on May 20 to gather input from landowners, City and regional staff, provincial agencies, busi- ness owners and resident groups regard- ing the future of the downtown. “One strong message that’s been coming forward is the need for more public space,” Ms. Hare said. “People want more community gathering places and a broader array of them. People also spoke of the need for greater walkabil- ity and connectivity between the different precincts of downtown and across the area as whole.” Ms. Hare also spoke of the importance of defining the downtown as a specific des- tination, something that has been echoed by stakeholders and residents throughout the process. “One topic that was very keen for the com- munity was the desire to make sure there’s more of a place here,” she explained. “Not only to distinguish this as a down- town, but to make sure there are many different opportunities and things to do including an arts centre, entertainment, hotel and convention centre and more.” A draft vision plan for the downtown will be presented at the next public meet- ing on Sept. 13 before it goes to council for approval in December.

NOW OPEN Residents invited to help create habitat as part of festivities PICKERING -- Residents are invited to cel- ebrate Pickering’s Rouge Park during the annual Rouge Days event. More than 20 fun-filled family events will be held at different locations throughout the park from June 7 through 16 in an effort to raise awareness about the people, places, flora, fauna and history of the Rouge River watershed. Festivities will get underway in Pickering on Saturday, June 9 with the Western Gate- way Habitat Creation event. Residents are invited to enjoy scenic views of the river and Lake Ontario while helping the wildlife that calls this area home with multiple fam- ily-friendly activities stationed along the waterfront trail, including bird box build- ing, planting wildflowers and creating pol- linator habitats to take home. The event runs from 10 a.m. to noon and interested participants can meet at the park’s Western Gateway on Bella Vista Drive in Pickering. The Rouge River, which flows from the Oak Ridges Moraine into Lake Ontario, is one of six GTA watersheds identified by the Inter- national Joint Commission of Canada and the U.S. as an Area of Concern on the Great Lakes. Though Rouge Valley Park will soon become Canada’s first urban park and was promised a $145 million endowment by the federal government, there is still much work to be done along the Rouge River, much of which is impacted by heavy development and pollution. This includes restoration, fixing existing environmental damage, pro- tection and preventing further urban devel- opment and environmental stress.

Marjorie Seymour Pickering Scouts lived up to their motto with rescue To the editor: Re: ‘Local youths show they have the right stuff’, editorial opinion, durhamregion.com, May 30, 2012. Thank you for your public accolades of the 8th Ajax Scouts and their leader in your May 31 editorial. The mission statement of Scouts Canada is: To contribute to the edu- cation of young people, through a value system based on the Scout Promise and Law, to help build a better world where people are self-fulfilled as individuals and play a constructive role in society.” In other words, for Scouting youth to grow into the kind of person you’d want to have as your neighbour: responsible, accountable and community-minded. The quick and selfless actions of the 8th Ajax Scouts illustrate that Scouting in Dur- ham is alive and well on its way to realizing this mission. I am proud of these and all Scouting youth and their volunteer leaders from our local community. We cannot offer exceptional program- ming to attain this mission without the support of our local community members and families. It takes a village to raise a child. If you’d like more information about Scouting, please call 905-852-4753. Diana Gould Uxbridge Justice system failed Michael McDonald To the editor: Re: ‘Amakon remains free until man- slaughter sentencing’, news, durhamregion. com, May 22, 2012. As a friend of Rhonda Corby, Michael McDonald’s mother, I would like to make a few comments to this article. I would like to first take the opportunity to say that our justice system disgusts me. It has failed not only justice for Michael, but it has also failed his family and friends. Two years ago when Mr. Amakon was taken into custody, he should have remained in custody until trial, but then he was found guilty of manslaughter and released again. What exactly does this show our teenagers today? What happens if Mr. Amakon some- how takes off before sentencing and is in hiding? Do the courts not have any remorse for what this has put Michael’s family through and that Mrs. Corby has not been able to find any closure with the death of her only child? It must be nice that the Amakon fami- ly has had the opportunity to spend time with their son. Mr. Amakon has not even shown any remorse for what he has done. The judge made a bad decision by keeping him out on bail. Our justice system needs to shape up and start being a little more harsh on these people and stop giving them a slap on the wrist. T.L.

The committee voted Wednesday night to proceed with legal action against the councillor for alleged violations related to his last municipal election campaign. Officials detailed in an earlier audit report $11,000 salary paid to Coun. Dickerson’s campaign manager, also his spouse, which was deemed in excess of the spending limit, and nearly $15,000 worth of alcohol purchased for a victory celebration that wasn’t used during the campaign. Coun. Dickerson has been earnest in maintaining his innocence and claims language in the Municipal Elections Act is vague and inconsistent. Be that as it may, the fact is the commit- tee believes it has reasonable grounds to conclude the act was contravened and, regardless of an expressed absence of intent expressed by Coun. Dickerson, he must face the ensuing proceedings and the consequences, whatever they may be. The decision ensures the issue is further examined to determine an appropriate outcome. Pickering citizens have every right to expect that the representatives they elect serve them in a manner that is above reproach. They have every right to demand that individuals who might be found in contravention of the rules set out in the Municipal Elections Act, whether through ignorance or confusion or design, face appropriate sanctions. They have every right to an expectation of transpar- ency and that their councillors not only serve their interests, but that they do so within the defined boundaries of munici- pal election legislation. There is much legal manoeuvring yet to occur and the future will greet Coun. Dickerson either way. Conceivably, that could be as a council- lor who has made amends through an offi- cial order or as former councillor ordered removed from his seat. The committee has concluded the thou- sands of dollars spent on alcohol, as an example, were in violation of the existing act and is recommending legal proceed- ings. His lawyer says any contraventions were accidental. Coun. Dickerson may well have erred in his interpretation, but, like the motorist who tells the police officer that he didn’t realize the speed limit was 60 km/h, acci- dental contravention of the law mustn’t result in a free pass. But we must let the process unfold in due course to determine once and for all what the final outcome will be. du r h a m r e g i o n . c o m Ne w s A d v e r t i s e r • Ju n e 8 , 2 0 1 2 6 P PI C K E R I N G PI C K E R I N G AD V E R T I S I N G F E A T U R E When your car is dirty, it’s easy to head to the nearest car wash and shell out $10 - $15 for a drive-thru wash. But commercial washes don’t always do a great job and their brushes can hold onto to dirt and actually scratch your vehicle. The next time you want a clean car, bring it to Shammy’s Auto Detailing. They offer an express car wash, starting as low as $10 for an exterior wash, all done by hand. You can also opt to have the interior vacuumed, the windows cleaned, the rims washed and polished and the tires dressed - all while you wait!

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.

UPRIGHTFREEZER #054662 Cause of death was stroke, SIU finds JEFF MITCHELL jmitchell@durhamregion.com PICKERING -- Officers have been cleared of any wrongdoing in the death of a man who was pulled over for erratic driving in Pickering. Although the 57-year-old man was a suspected drunk driver, his conduct was probably caused by a stroke, investiga- tors with the Special Investigations Unit found. The man, who hasn’t been identified, was hospitalized after being apprehend- ed by OPP officers on Hwy. 401 in March and died 10 days later. “Unknown to the officers at the time, the man’s driving was very likely the result of an ongoing brain bleed,” acting SIU director Joseph Martino wrote. “I am satisfied that all of the officers involved exercised an appropriate level of care in relation to the man’s well being.” The SIU assigned two investigators and one forensic investigator to the case, identifying one subject officer who arrested the man, three witness officers and two civilian witnesses. The subject officer, who handcuffed and struggled with the man, did not co- operate with the SIU probe, declining an interview and refusing to hand over his notes. Mr. Martino noted the cop was within his legal rights to do so. The incident began at about 7:30 a.m. March 30 when a suspected drunk driver in a Chevrolet Cavalier was reported on eastbound Hwy. 401. The OPP officer pulled up beside the Cavalier at Whites Road and watched as it struck the guardrail and came to a stop, the SIU report says. The driver got out of the vehicle and fell onto the roadway. The officer struggled on the ground with the man and hand- cuffed him, the report says. Noticing a cut over the man’s eye, officers called for an ambulance. Cops relayed concerns the man was experi- encing a medical episode to responding paramedics, the SIU found. The man was rushed to hospital in Ajax, then transferred to Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre in Toronto, where he underwent emergency surgery. He died 10 days later of the stroke, the SIU report says. Mr. Martino concluded the OPP officer was justified in pursuing the man’s car and found that the cruiser did not make contact with the Cavalier. He noted the cut over the man’s eye was minor. “It most probably occurred during the fall or struggle,” Mr. Martino wrote. The SIU is a civilian agency that inves- tigates incidents of death, serious injury or sexual assault involving police. Police cleared after man dies in Pickering traffic stop> “I continue to express my inno- cence in all these matters.” Auditor William Molson spoke to the committee regarding the dozen contraventions cited in the audit. “Some are more important than others, while some may be considered modest,” he explained, noting that two find- ings stood out as particularly notable. Those payments included $11,000 listed as salary or hon- oraria paid to Mr. Dickerson’s campaign manager and spouse, Jo-ann Kerr, and $15,000 for alcohol listed as being for a vic- tory party or appreciation gifts but which was not used in the campaign. “We were able to establish to our satisfaction that it was very clear this expenditure did not relate to the campaign,” Mr. Molson said of the 288 bottles of alcohol, 282 of which were found to be in storage at Coun. Dickerson’s home, while six had been given away to different area charities. “There are expenditures that are subject to the spending limit and expenditures that are not subject to the spending limit, but a third very important cat- egory is expenditures that have nothing to do with the cam- paign,” Mr. Molson continued. Because the act states that any surplus left over at the end of an election must be paid to the City clerk, Mr. Molson noted that the value of the alcohol that was not used in the campaign should rightly have been a campaign surplus. “That means funds that prop- erly belong to and go to the City of Pickering did not go there,” Mr. Molson said. “This as a diversion of surplus.” Coun. Dickerson’s solicitor, Marshall Green, argued that the alcohol was intended to be used for a victory party later in the year, once the weather was warmer, but that Coun. Dick- erson opted to keep it once the audit process commenced in case it became an issue. He noted that because the alco- hol purchased was still intact it could be returned for cash and that payment returned to the City. Mr. Green and Coun. Dick- erson argued that any excess spending found was due to ambiguities in the act regarding what could be listed as pre-elec- tion day expenses as opposed to post-election day expens- es, which are not subject to the limit, and that any contraven- tions of the act were accidental. “This episode in large part is not Mr. Dickerson’s fault but the fault of the legislation itself,” Mr. Green explained. “This episode should stop here, Coun. Dickerson and his family have suffered. He’s paid the price for what I say is bad legislation and shouldn’t be required to pay more.” After some deliberation, the committee voted to move for- ward with legal proceeding, citing maintaining public con- fidence in the electoral pro- cess, the need for transparency and the need for general deter- rence. “It seemed to me to be reason- able to proceed with legal pro- ceedings, the candidate appears to have contravened the (Munic- ipal Elections Act),” said Paul Jones, committee chairman. Solicitor Jody Johnson will be providing legal advice to the committee regarding how best to proceed with legal action at an upcoming Compliance Audit Committee meeting, the date of which has yet to be announced.

While the official first day of summer isn’t for a few more weeks, the weather is heating up and with it comes many outdoor festivals and events throughout Durham Region, including everyone’s favourite annual, smoky, lip-smacking festi- vals: ribfests. Rotary Ribfest season kicked off last weekend in Pickering, takes place this weekend in Bowmanville, and makes a few other stops in Durham Region through- out the year, including Whitby and Uxbridge in July, and Oshawa in September. To find out when rib- fest is happening in your area, visit www.rotaryribfest.com. But you don’t have to wait for rib- fest to enjoy quality barbecue in Durham Region. Durham is home to many restaurants that smoke their own meat and offer mouth- watering barbecue chicken, pork and southern-style sides that are sure to satisfy. In Ajax, Hooper’s BBQ opened its doors just last month and offers a full menu of quality barbecue smoked in a true hickory smoker, which seals in meat’s natural juices and imparts a rich, smoky flavour. Chef Otis Hooper was born in Chi- cago, attended the California Culi- nary Academy in San Francisco, and is proud to have opened up his restaurant in Ajax. For more infor- mation, visit www.hoopersbar- bque.com. With two locations -- one in Whitby and another in Oshawa -- Buster Rhino’s Southern BBQ is quickly becoming a local favourite barbecue spot. Buster Rhino’s also offers barbecue classes, where you can learn how to cook southern- style ribs at home -- and of course, enjoy the product of your work. For more information, visit www.bust- errhinos.com. Stuttering John’s in downtown Oshawa also offers tasty barbecue items that are smoked in house. Often during weekday lunches, you can find John in front of the store and behind a barbecue, offering “street meat” of the finest quality -- pulled pork, beef brisket, and of course, hot dogs. Visit www.stutter- ingjohnsbistro.com. Haugen’s Barbeque Chicken and Ribs in Scugog was recently fea- tured on the Food Network show, You Gotta Eat Here! You really do, considering Haugen’s has been serving up barbecued eats for more than 59 years -- and is a personal favourite of my family. This restau- rant even bakes its own bread, cuts its own fries and makes its pies from scratch. For more infor- mation, visit www.haugens.com. Also in Scugog, Whittington’s Smokehouse and Grill is a brand- new barbecue restaurant that’s on my “must try” list. Rumour has it that Whittington’s smokes their barbecued fare for four to 14 hours with genuine hickory and cher- rywood. Visit www.whittington- smokehouse.ca. Of course, if you prefer to put on an apron and do your own back- yard barbecuing, I’d recommend picking up some fresh meat from a local farm. To find one near you, visit www.durhamfarmfresh.ca. While you’re on the farm, grab some fresh, seasonal veggies to serve along with your barbecued feast. Is your mouth watering yet? Let us know your favourite Durham Region barbecue spot on Twitter at @DurhamTourism, and be sure to check out the restaurant listings on www.durhamtourism.ca. Kerri King is manager of Durham Tourism.

Civic Awards shine light on residents’ contributions Moya Dillon mdillon@durhamregion.com PICKERING -- Residents who help make Pickering great were honoured for their efforts during the City’s 2011 Civic Awards. Thirty individuals and groups were recog- nized for their contributions to the commu- nity during a ceremony on May 28, which covered everything from volunteer efforts to heritage to urban design and cultural diver- sity. “Each year I look forward to this celebra- tion because it affords us the opportunity to shine a well-deserved spotlight on so many outstanding individuals, teams and organi- zations that call our community home,” said Pickering Mayor Dave Ryan. “This is a wonderful opportunity to acknowledge the hard work, dedication and contributions that have touched countless lives and make this wonderful city even bet- ter.” Claremont resident Carolyn Evans was recognized for her decades of service to the community with the Lifetime Achievement Award. Over the years Ms. Evans has contrib- uted to her community as a volunteer with her local United church, as a Girl Guide lead- er and as a long-time swim instructor, teach- ing at both the Pickering Recreation Centre and offering lessons to area children in her backyard pool for more than 25 years. “It’s really rewarding to see the little ones swim and the smiles on their faces,” Ms. Evans said of teaching, noting water safety is also a top priority. “I encourage anyone and everyone to learn how to swim, it’s a life-saving skill. Especial- ly with toddlers, it’s important parents know not to take their eyes off kids because it only takes a second and they sink like a rock. It can happen so fast.” Mayor Ryan praised Ms. Evans for her efforts. “Ms. Evans realized that many youngsters in her community couldn’t make their way to public swimming pools,” he explained, noting she offered programs at neighbour’s pools before getting one of her own. “Each summer, Ms. Evans spends six weeks teaching about 40 students a day. Some of her former students are now bringing their chil- dren to her for lessons and some have gone on to become certified instructors. Her com- mitment to ensuring children are safe around water is commendable.” Other honorees included Pickering teen Nicholas Schiefer, who received a special citation for his scientific achievements, which resulted in him winning a $50,000 scholar- ship from the Intel International Science and Engineering Fair for his search engine proj- ect, which is optimized for small chunks of text such as tweets and Facebook updates. This year’s Bravery/Heroism Award went to Pickering resident Scott Canata, who raised $40,000 for cancer research with his Run to Live, which saw the Pickering resident run 8,500 kilometres from one coast to another in honour of his mother, a cancer survivor, and his grandfather, who died from cancer six months ago.

On in Durham Ajax artist wins award in Oshawa show Metroland columnist Allan O’Marra takes Best Use of Colour prize in juried exhibition BY MIKE RUTA mruta@durhamregion.com OSHAWA -- It’s always a good sign when art show jurors have a tough time selecting work for an exhi- bition. And that was the case this year in the Oshawa Art Association 44th annual Juried Art Exhibition. Show chairwoman Betty McGowan notes 206 entries were received this year from all cor- ners of the region. And while the plan was to show 80 selected works at The Robert McLaugh- lin Gallery, the jurors had a hard time whittling down the entries, opting for 91 pieces. The show runs at the Oshawa gallery to June 17 during regular gallery hours. “Visitors can expect to see wonderful, high- quality artwork in all media, all subject matter, a nice variety of techniques and some wonderful sculptures this year,” McGowan says. “We’ve been doing this for 44 years and I think that’s something special.” She adds that show visitors themselves will select the People’s Choice Award, which goes to the artist whose work receives the most ballots at the exhibition. The Best in Show winner is Scugog’s Charles Choi for his oil work, Tranquility. The Best Use of Colour award went to Ajax artist and Metroland Durham columnist Allan O’Marra for his Ajax Soakerfest Cohorts. The Mayor’s and Original Prints awards were won by Allison Karakokkinos (Whitby) and Ruth Greenlaw (Oshawa), respectively. Karakokkinos and Choi were double win- ners as they also received firsts in the Mixed Media and Oil categories, respectively. Also appearing twice on the list of honou- rees was David Northam, who received second place in the Sculpture category and third place in Drawing. See the full list of award winners in the online story appearing June 10 at durhamregion. com, What’s On. The Robert McLaughlin Gallery is at 72 Queen St., near Centre and King streets.

A rt from the vault in Whitby WHITBY -- Station Gallery has unlocked the vault for its latest exhibition. The Whitby gallery show, Patrons’ Picks, is of 50 works in the gallery’s permanent collec- tion selected by some of the gal- lery’s donors and runs to mid- July. “Unlocking the doors to our permanent collection vault has been exhilarating and infor- mative,” states gallery curator Olexander Wlasenko in a press release. “It’s thrilling to make discov- eries of pieces that have quietly hung on the backs of the stor- age racks here. There’s a real sensuous, quirky humour that’s noticeable in the collection. Many prints invoke the funky atmosphere of the late seventies and early eighties.” It’s free to visit the gallery, 1450 Henry St. (at Victoria Street), which is open seven days a week.

The Whitby resident who plays rugby for the Ajax Wanderers is one of 26 play- ers who will represent Canada at the U20 Junior World Rugby Trophy 2012, which takes place in Salt Lake City, Utah, from June 18 through June 30. This year will be the third time Cana- da has taken place in the tournament, and the prize up for grabs for the first- and second-place teams is promotion to the elite Junior World Cup next year. It is without doubt the highlight of the U20 season and will present a huge challenge to the young Rugby Canada athletes rep- resenting their country. “For the players, the JWRT represents a first opportunity to compete on the glob- al stage against their peers. It’s going to be demanding, first of all physically with games every four days, but it will also represent a huge test of character,” coach Mike Shelley said in a press release. Canada will be up against familiar opponents in pool play, being drawn against Zimbabwe and runners-up for the past two years Japan for the third straight tournament, and last year’s hosts Georgia for the second time in a row. Stones is one of four returning players on the roster. The team will play June 18 vs. Georgia, June 22 vs. Japan and June 26 vs. Zimba- bwe. The finals are scheduled for June 30. Rock get doubled by Redmen 8-4 RON PIETRONIRO / METROLAND Face it. You’re outnumbered AJAX -- Pine Ridge Secondary School players Jackson Harding and Isaiah Henry mugged Casey Belli from Uxbridge Secondary School during the LOSSA senior boys’ rugby finals at the Ajax Wanderers field. Uxbridge won the title with a 19-10 victory to advance to the OFSAA AAA/AAAA championships in Hamilton. BY BRAD KELLY bkelly@durhamregion.com WHITBY -- Both Wayne Colley and Clem D’Orazio, the respective GM/head coach- es of their senior lacrosse teams, are fac- ing some problems early on in Major Series Lacrosse. The problem Colley has with his Brooklin Redmen isn’t such a bad thing to have to deal with, while D’Orazio and his Ajax Rock are in desperate need of a solution to their issue. Both didn’t mind addressing the situations following Wednesday night’s 8-4 win by the Redmen over the Rock at the Iroquois Park Sports Centre. Colley’s revolves around a surplus of talent he has at his disposal right now, forcing him to put four healthy scratches in the stands. “I’ve never had that problem in the five years I’ve been here,” he said, adding there are still more players he hopes to add to the mix. “Everyone is still fighting for a posi- tion on the team. I don’t have players mop- ing around. They know something has gone wrong or they would be in the lineup. “It’s a great problem to have. If you’re not (mad) then you’re not an athlete because an athlete wants to play, but you have to play better to stay in the lineup.” D’Orazio and his young team are still trying to find their way, and the back of the net. A lack of scoring hurt them Wednesday, unable to get a goal until just 28 seconds were left in the second period and facing a 6-0 deficit. “I think we’re still trying to establish our- selves,” D’Orazio said. “It’s a young team, a young coaching staff. We need to find what works best for us and we need to put together 60 minutes, bottom line. “We’re not getting it done in front of the net. We’re not getting into those dirty areas enough and we need to execute when we do get our chances. We’re playing against some of the best goalies in the world and it’s not going to get easier. We have to make sure we capitalize on our chances.” The Redmen were in control throughout, jumping out to a 6-0 lead before the Rock finally beat goaltender Aaron Bold with under 30 seconds to go in the second period. The Rock did get as close as 6-3 with 12:57 to go in the third period, but couldn’t get the deficit to two or less. The Redmen were led with single goals by Derek Suddons, Tyler Patterson, Matt Hol- man, Derek Hopcroft, Caleb Wiles, Cam Holding, Dan Ball and Shawn Williams. Mar- tin Whittaker had two for the Rock, with one each by Bill McLean and John Rae. THE SCOOP The victory evened the record of the Brooklin Red- men at 1-1, while the Ajax Rock dropped to 0-3 ... The Rock have been without league Rookie of the Year and last season’s second-leading scorer Jor- dan MacIntosh, who is busy running some lacrosse camps. GM/head coach Clem D’Orazio wouldn’t comment whether he expects MacIntosh to play for the Rock this season ... Arguably, Shawn Williams wasn’t the best Williams on the floor Wednesday night, upstaged by his daughter who sang a stirring rendition of the national anthem prior to the game ... The Rock have a doubleheader weekend, hosting Peterborough on Friday at 8 p.m. at the Ajax Com- munity Centre, then are off to Six Nations Saturday. du r h a m r e g i o n . c o m Ne w s A d v e r t i s e r • Ju n e 8 , 2 0 1 2 19 AP Carrier of the We ek Ajax & Pickering Locations8 Salem Rd South Ajax, ON L1S 7T7 To day’s Carrier of the Week is Madison.

The Pee- wee OMFL team also pulled off a win against the Brantford Bisons. The peewees played their second game of the season against the Brantford Bisons and won 36-0. Led by their RB Rasheed Tucker, who had four touchdowns, the Dolphins revenged their loss the previous week. Kal- ven Lewis and D’Andrew Higgins also had an amazing game, with Lewis scoring one TD and Higgins adding the extra points. The defensive linemen, Cristian Claros- Ayala, Malik Williams, Andrew Stewart and Hayden Dwyer, stopped the Bison offense in their tracks limiting their yards, and Shae- dan Currie contributed with an intercep- tion in the second quarter. The offensive linemen, Cameron Farrell, Josh Brown and Myles Mathurson, worked hard. The bantam team put forth a gallant effort, although they did not get the win, falling 8-6. Kenan Clarke rushed in the Dolphins’ only TD. Mitchell Van Pelt had a big interception in the second quarter that could have been a game changer. The defence was in great form, with major tackles coming from Alex- ander Doucette, Tyrell Chung and Cameron Tabatabaei. The D-line was impenetrable with sacks from linemen Shareef Tucker, Jaiden Cruz and Quintyn Pettiford. The junior OV team continued its unbeat- en streak, trumping the Eagles 42-0. The defence, including Yasean Steitiet, Trey White, Sharlon Smith, Kamau Farrell-Burke, Kesean Bennett and Elijah Williams, protect- ed its territory, while the offence, consisting of QB Raishaun Provo, RB Jordan Grimes, WR Josh Hemry and Nicoholas Chambers, dominated with displays of speed and skill to maintain a shutout. Matt Williams added a touchdown from an interception. The senior OV team closed off the day with another win for the Dolphins. At the end of the game the score was 14-7 for the Dolphins. Outstanding players of the game were: on defence Kordal Darling, and offence Meschach Green.
