Public can see security camera images of suspects in seven robberies DURHAM -- Durham police are hoping that posting imag- es of crooks caught on camera will lead to arrests in a number of unsolved robberies. A video posted to the online video site YouTube features security camera images of suspects in seven robberies dating back to 2007, with an appeal to the public to assist in identifying the culprits. The robberies occurred at banks and other financial institutions in Newcastle, Oshawa, Ajax, Whitby and Port Perry between 2007 and 2012. The video can be viewed at www.youtube.com/user/dur- hampolice1 or on our website at durhamregion.com.

This area can be used as a classroom dur- ing the day, as a safe spot for children to wait for the buses after school and in the summer it’s a nice place where the com- munity can come and enjoy the school and everything the grounds have to offer.” The project is also a way to encourage students to take ownership of their envi- ronment. “We worked really hard on raising enough money this year,” said Danielle Trottier, a Grade 5 student and member of the Eco Team. About $8,500 was raised to pay for the landscaping and materials needed to cre- ate the new classroom, and it was well worth it. “I can’t wait to use this project in the years to come,” said Grade 5 student Nayanna Walker. SECOND from page 1 Options extended on north Pickering homes set for demolition PICKERING -- Several north Pickering homes slated for demolition may get an extended reprieve. On June 18, council voted to defer any decision on nine homes located on north Pickering’s federal lands until Septem- ber. Leases on nine homes that were taken out by the City in December, in order to investigate the properties’ long-term use by the City or market the buildings to the public and which are set to expire June 30, will be extended. Tony Prevedel, CAO for the City of Pickering, estimated security, insurance and rental costs for the additional three months at $9,000. “We can certainly ask for an extension of time from Transport Canada, but I’m not sure we would get a different report from staff,” Mr. Prevedel explained. A staff report recommended council extend leases on five properties: two being investigated for relo- cation by members of the public, one the City deemed viable for relocation to the Pickering Museum Village and two addi- tional homes that had some interest from private citizens. The rest of the homes were deemed too far beyond repair to be viable invest- ments for the City, given repair costs and restrictions from Transport Canada that the homes only be offered for commer- cial lease, limiting potential revenue. “The vast majority of these properties aren’t anywhere near the footprint of a runway or any other airport buildings, yet Transport Canada wants them moved off the land, which amazes me to no end,” said Councillor Peter Rodrigues, who noted his disappointment with the fact that so few of the homes could be saved and those going to members of the public would be moved out of Pickering. “I’d like to see what else we can do, to give us time to have some community input and for councillors to come up with adjustments on the plan because this doesn’t serve the interest of Pickering, taxpayers or heritage.” Mayor Dave Ryan disagreed, noting City staff had gone above and beyond to save homes that aren’t the City’s responsibil- ity. “Unfortunately the federal government has all the cards here,” said Mayor Ryan. “The definition of insanity is continu- ing to do the same thing and expecting a different result, that’s what we’re doing tonight. This is not an ideal situation but I think it’s the best we’re going to get and I think it’s time we took what’s available to us and moved on.” The motion to leave a decision until September and extend the leases was passed by a vote of four to three.

Sadly, this seems to be the case with the historic properties on the airport lands in Pickering. Six months ago we commended the City of Pickering for doing what it could to help preserve some of these homes. If you remember, the City leased 10 prop- erties, with six held to see if there was any interest from private buyers. On one hand, the houses were offered for free. But the rub was that a buyer would have to pay to move the house, and this costs a lot of money. As well, these houses, architecturally and historically significant as some of them are, have been sitting empty for years and are in bad condition. The update is two of the properties seem to be on the way to private sales and anoth- er is destined for Pickering Museum Vil- lage. At this point the City should just say, ‘our hands are tied, we’ve done what we can’. The temporary leases expire at the end of this month, when the properties revert back to Transport Canada. So a motion at Monday night council’s meeting from Councillor Peter Rodrigues, to defer a decision and in effect extend the leases to September for community input, may be well-intended, but it’s not practi- cal. There’s nothing more that can be done to save the houses. They should be photo- graphed for posterity before the wrecking ball arrives, but saving them seems wishful thinking. Spending another $9,000 or so to extend the leases would be a waste of money. Now, you may recall that in December we argued spending roughly $31,000 to pro- tect the properties was not a lot of money. We believed that then and holding the properties has been beneficial to an extent, with at least some saved from destruction. While the onus was not on the City to do this, it was well worth a try. As for community input, it’s well known that many in Brougham and in the general area are angry that the area has declined, laying the blame squarely at the feet of Transport Canada. We know how they feel; the question is, what can be done with these properties? The answer is there’s no more to be done. They belong to Transport Canada and sit on its land. Still, it’s very sad that these relics from Pickering’s interesting past will soon fade into history. When I was a high school student, it was just kind of expected that the food in the school cafeteria would be lousy. Luckily for me, my mom usually packed me a lunch, so I rarely had to indulge in the caf fare. In Scotland, nine-year-old Martha Payne was stuck with her caf- eteria lunches and decided to start documenting the unappetiz- ing nature of the meals. She launched a blog called NeverSeconds (http://neverseconds.blogspot.co.uk/) and began taking pictures of her daily lunches, which in some cases were anemic-looking at best and none too healthy. She rated them for taste and health and counted mouthfuls. Her blog became an international sen- sation, and at one point the school banned her from taking pic- tures. But it also brought change, and there were more veggies up for offer, bigger portions and a new system where kids got more choice about what they ate. So the blog continues and Martha is something of a celebrity. She’s asked kids from around the world to send her pictures of their school lunches, and it’s interesting to see how typical lunch fare dif- fers around the world. I’ve yet to see a pea- nut butter and jelly sandwich. Visitors to her blog have also donated more than $100,000 to Maria’s Meals, a charity which supplies free school lunches for kids who can’t afford it. Not bad for a nine-year-old. To me, Martha’s story shows how comfortable kids are online and that they can make a difference when they want to. While we adults may have scribbled in diaries when we were young, kids today take to Facebook, Tumblr, LiveJournal and more. They share their tri- umphs, their frustrations and all the things they love and hate. On the latter two websites, it’s most often anonymously. Imagine if every time you wrote in your diary, your diary wrote back. That’s what happens with kids today. Of course there are negative sides to it too, as kids engaged in harmful behaviour can find like-minded friends. Most often, how- ever, kids are engaged in harmless behaviour and they have the opportunity to have their thoughts and talents validated by others in a way we didn’t before the advent of social media. Take a locally connected example. Lennon and Maisy Stella, the children of Durham Region country duo The Stellas, are now stars in their own right. A sweet YouTube video of them singing and play- ing margarine tubs has gone viral and garnered them more than four million views on YouTube for their cover of Robyn’s Call Your Girlfriend. They’re now on track to potentially outshine their par- ents. Think about it. Their parents worked for years, playing count- less small concerts and talent shows to gain that kind of attention. It was a hard-fought battle to bring their music to the masses. Their kids reached four million people in less than a month by posting a great video on YouTube. That’s the world they live in. -- Reka Szekely’s social media column appears every second Thursday in this space.

Scan this QR code for video of this week’s adopt-a-pet on our Kristen’s Kritters blog DURHAM -- I was visiting Dianne Pazaratz, champion and chief steward of the Rossland Road butterfly garden in Oshawa the other day, when her phone rang -- for me. My husband calling, something so unexpected, when I’d be seeing him again in two hours, that I felt a flash of apprehension. No, not dire news, it turned out. The momentous event prompting his call drew squeals of delight from me, and when I told her, from Dianne as well. While Dennis talked to me he was watching a big dark butterfly with iridescent wings fluttering about the lush, leafy vine that crawls up our fieldstone chimney. It -- she -- was lay- ing eggs on the growing tips that curl out from the tangle of vines and lime-green leaves. It was a dream come true. At long last, a pipevine swallowtail making herself at home in our garden. We spotted our first -- and only -- pipevine but- terfly in the yard almost 20 years ago, following three days of strong southerly winds that obviously car- ried it up from the southern States. Dennis was so taken with its shining blue-black upperwings and crescent of orange dots below that he phoned around and found one of its host plants, Dutch- man’s pipe, at a specialty garden centre in north Pickering. With an old badminton net to climb up, the vine currently covers half the front of our house. It’s been waiting patiently for years, as we have, for a pipevine swallowtail to discover it. Neighbours have found and photographed these beautiful tailed butterflies in the area the past summer or two, but we’ve never seen a second one in the yard, until now. It was with awe and delight that I watched “our” swallowtail the following day, flitting about the vine in the hot sunshine, ovipositing once again. We haven’t seen her for three days now, so she must have moved on. But we’re eagerly awaiting her legacy: for those microscopic eggs to hatch into small black, red-knobbed larvae that will crawl about the heart-shaped leaves, chewing lacy patterns. In time the growing caterpillars will pupate, and at last hatch out, a whole flock of satiny, blue-black beauties. We expect our butterfly bushes and zinnias to be blooming by then, for them to nectar on. Like milkweed for monarchs, Dutchman’s pipe contains toxic chemicals that make the caterpillars and butterflies distasteful to birds. It was a popular plant of gardeners in Victorian times, so there used to be many more pipevine swallowtails in the northeast a cen- tury ago than there are today. With global warming, and a growing interest in butterfly gardens, they may be making a comeback.

Pipevine swallowtail flutters in, makes herself home Hot cars death trap for Durham pets BY KRISTEN CALIS kcalis@durhamregion.com Concerned residents can call 911 if pet is in severe stress DURHAM -- What’s wrong with peo- ple? This is what I thought when I heard the horrible story of the dog who lost his life in a Vaughan Mills parking lot this month. A couple of young adults left their one- and-a-half-year-old chocolate Labra- dor, Tucker, in their car in a giant mall’s parking lot as the temperature soared to 32 C, and they were in the air-condi- tioned mall. I wrote a column on this topic not too long ago, but I took this as a sign to remind owners that it is not OK to keep your pet in a parked car for any amount of time in this heat. Dogs and cats don’t sweat like we do and will suffer brain damage or even death if left in the heat. The story of Tucker made me feel sick because it was completely preventable, and sad because I can’t imagine the dis- tress he went through. How could anyone who claims to love their pet put them through such hor- ror? Last week, one of my colleagues received a phone call from his wife when it was extremely hot, and she noticed a dog in a parked car at the Oshawa Cen- tre. The windows were slightly down, but the dog appeared to be suffering. So he called the main police num- ber and they were on their way, but 10 minutes later, the owners came out to the car and my colleague called off the police. When my colleague’s wife spoke to police later, the officer said she should have dialed 911. Sergeant Nancy van Rooy confirmed that it is acceptable to call the emergen- cy line regarding an animal in the heat. “It’s a common sense judgment,” she says. “If there are signs of distress and there’s a medical concern then certainly call 911.” The operator will be able to gauge the severity of the situation, and will deploy emergency vehicles as needed. Sgt. van Rooy added many local fire trucks are equipped with oxygen masks for pets, and they often accompany 911 calls. You can also call the Humane Soci- ety at 905-665-7430. Its officers are able to act as the police in this case and will break a window if necessary. Either way, if you see an animal in dis- tress in this heat, take action. You could save its life.

An Accommodation Review Committee (ARC) held its fourth public meeting at St. Elizabeth Seton on June 14, present- ing the three recommendations it plans to present to the Durham Catholic Dis- trict School Board’s director of educa- tion. The committee, made up of 35 mem- bers that include teachers, principals, and community members from each school community, was formed in Jan- uary, and charged to look at options to address declining enrollment in Picker- ing’s Catholic elementary schools. “It’s not a single-school issue,” says superintendent and chairwoman of the committee, Tracy Barill. “It’s an issue across the city of Pickering.” Enrollment is currently at 92 per cent capacity, and projections indicate it will drop to 70 per cent by 2021. Empty spaces in the schools pose a cost problem for both the board and the Prov- ince, Ms. Barill explained. After three well-attended public meet- ings and 12 working meetings, the com- mittee has narrowed down the 32 options it considered to three that it will recom- mend to director of education Paul Pulla. In the first recommendation, St. Antho- ny Daniel and St. Marguerite Bourgeoys would close. Holy Redeemer and Our Lady of the Bay would consolidate into one new school large enough for 400 stu- dents. The replacement school would go on one of the two sites. The French Immersion would move from Holy Redeemer to St. Isaac Jogues. The French Immersion program would remain at St. Elizabeth Seton. The second option would also close St. Anthony Daniel, and also St. Monica. Holy Redeemer and Our Lady of the Bay would become one, as in the first scenar- io. This option would keep the French Immersion program at St. Elizabeth Seton and St. Isaac Jogues. In the final option, again St. Antho- ny Daniel and St. Marguerite Bourgeoys would close, and as in the other two options, Holy Redeemer and Our Lady of the Bay would amalgamate. French immersion would move from Holy Redeemer to St. Isaac Jogues. The French Immersion program at St. Elizabeth Seton would move to St. Monica. All of the options would require redraw- ing the boundaries between the schools. The first and third options would close 752 pupil spaces, and the second would close 844. Public concerns include fears that par- ents will move their children out of the Catholic system and into public schools, that enrollment won’t decline as much as projected, and having to move children to different schools. The working group will have two more meetings where members will consider final public comments before submitting the report to the director of education by the end of June. Mr. Pulla will then sub- mit his own report to the board in Sep- tember. There will be another public meeting where residents can speak in the fall, and the board will make a decision in late 2012 to early 2013. Some Pickering Catholic schools could close Kristen Calis kcalis@durhamregion.com> 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 2 1 , 2 0 1 2 11 P BROCK ROAD AND 401 PICKERING GET READY FOR SUMMER • GET READY FOR SUMMER • GET READY FOR SUMMER MON-FRI 7:30AM - 8:00PM SATURDAY 7:30-6 • SUNDAY 9-6 905-686-2309 AIRCONDITIONINGINSPECTION SUMMER SEASONAL SERVICE $39.99 Identify refrigerant Check component operation Vacuum and leak test •brakes •suspension •tires •lights and horn •exhaust •fluids *Some restrictions apply *Enviro fees extra $399*refrigerant extra if required *some restrictions apply Castrol GTX Oil Change Rotate Tires $69.95 CHECKTHE FOLLOWING REG.$5499 SAVE$1500 The Regional Municipalities of Durham and York have jointly initiated a Schedule C Municipal Class Environmental Assessment Study (Class EA)to identify the preferred solution for addressing the future capacity limitations of the existing outfall at the Duffin Creek Water Pollution Control Plant (WPCP).

The motion, put forward by Coun- cillor Bill McLean, called for coun- cillors to have the right to suspend the appointment of members from any advisory committee or exter- nal agency, board or commission in the event a member is charged with an offence under certain sections of the Municipal Elections Act or Criminal Code. “We as elected offi- cials should be held to the highest accountability and standards pos- sible,” he explained. “This motion addresses the appointment of a member to any advisory committee, external agen- cy, board or commission, such as Veridian. It does not touch regular duties; they would still be allowed to carry out duties as a councillor, and it’s not a done deal, you would have to get the majority of council to agree.” Discussion of the motion cen- tred around Coun. Doug Dickerson, who was the subject of a recent compli- ance audit exam- ining his election finances. The city’s Compliance Audit Commit- tee has recommended legal action be commenced against the coun- cillor in light of the audit, which detailed several contraventions of the Municipal Elections Act, but no criminal charges have been filed. “The foundation we have by law is that someone is innocent until proven guilty,” said Coun. David Pickles. “We should not arm our- selves as lawmakers and put in sus- pensions prior to someone being guilty or even being charged. I think these are desperate and inappropri- ate circumstances for us to be going to.” Mayor Dave Ryan chastised coun- cil for stepping into an ongoing pro- cess that was designed to be con- ducted outside the political realm. “The Election Act was specifically written such that it would be apolit- ical, meaning that members of the political body would not be involved in the discussion,” he explained. “This action is anything but apo- litical and I do express my disap- pointment that we continue to have this level of politics in this munici- pality.” The motion was defeated by a vote of four to three.

TD Insurance offers the following advice to homeowners to ensure their home and valuables stay safe from severe weather: • Adhere to regular outdoor home maintenance: According to a recent TD Insurance poll of more than 1,000 Canadians 18 years of age and older, less than half of Canadians check for blockages to prevent water from draining away from the home, and only 36% remove weak branches and trees from their property. Did you know that downspouts should extend at least 1.8 metres from the foundation and face away from the house? To ensure your home is properly maintained walk around your home's exterior to check for these red flags. • Know your valuables: Less than one-quarter of Canadians keep a detailed inventory of their valuables. Noting the serial numbers and dates purchased on your valuables will make claims easier. You can also photograph items to keep a record so that you'll be well equipped to make an insurance claim. • Understand your insurance: The poll also revealed that less than one-third of respondents have read their insurance policies or know exactly what they're covered for. For example, a lesser known fact is that if your roof leaks, the damage to the roof itself is usually not covered since it's deemed a home maintenance issue, while the contents of your home would be. This is just one reason why you should read your policy so that there aren't any surprises. • Exercise caution: Thinking ahead and being prepared is a great approach to many situations, and particularly when it comes to unpredictable weather. In addition, Dave Minor, Vice President, TD Insurance says, “Depending on the severity of the weather warnings, you may want to consider moving your car under cover and bringing your lawn furniture inside.” www.newscanada.com How to protect your home from severe weather Are you experiencing Hair Loss? 905.240.0312 58 Rossland Rd.West,Suite 207,Oshawa www.blossomwigs.com blossom is a full service Hair Loss Centre and Mastectomy Boutique.

Increasingly, however, some enterprising green thumbs are making their own pesticides with the intention of saving the environment, not to mention some money. If this is you, be aware that some homemade pesticides can actually be harmful to your health and the environment. Consider rhubarb leaves, for example. Some online recipes call for boiling down rhubarb leaves to extract a naturally occurring chemical that can be used to control insects. Sounds harmless enough, but while the tart stalks of the rhubarb plant are delicious in pies, Health Canada advises their leaves contain oxalic acid, a toxic substance that can be deadly to humans if ingested in large doses. Other hidden risks posed by homemade pesticides include: • inhaling harmful fumes; • irritating your eyes and skin; • ingesting contaminants or harmful substances due to improper preparation, labelling and storage; and • contaminating cookware and utensils used to prepare or serve food. Because homemade pesticides are not regulated or tested for safety, Health Canada advises consumers that their use may pose risks to human health and the environment. Tips about preventing lawn and garden pest problems and secrets to having a healthy lawn can be found online at www.healthcanada.gc.ca/pmra or by calling Health Canada's Pest Management Information Service at 1-800- 267-6315. www.newscanada.com Homemade pesticides can pose hidden health risks 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 2 1 , 2 0 1 2 14 AP Newsworthy notes from around Durham Region • The Sea Cadets of RCSCC Harwood from Ajax recently participated in the Rendez- Vous Naval 2012 in Quebec City from June 8 to 11.

And, the Canadian women’s soccer team sure does want to be the best when it heads to London for the 2012 Olympics, assures Ajax’s Candace Chapman, a key defender on the team. The Canadians will get one more pre- Olympic crack at the best when they take on the mighty United States, the top- ranked team in the world, in a ‘friendly’ that may not be all that friendly June 30 in Utah. That will be the last test for the Canadi- ans prior to the start of the Olympics, and the first chance at avenging a resound- ing 4-0 loss to the States in the final of the CONCACAF qualification tournament in Vancouver in January. Canada could be somewhat forgiven for the outcome of that game, given it had just clinched the Olympic berth with a semifi- nal win over Mexico. “It’s going to be interesting to see how (coach) John (Herdman) decides how we want to play them,” said Chapman, by telephone from New Brunswick after a 1-0 win over China in another Olympic tune- up. “It doesn’t matter if it’s a friendly or a game against them in World Cup qualify- ing, it’s always going to be a battle. They’re a great a team and we’ll have to beat them at some point if we’re going to win a medal. It’s going to be a great test for us.” Chapman, who was part of the Olympic team in Beijing that lost out in the quarter- finals, says it’s not just any medal that the Canadians covet -- and she believes the gold is within grasp for Canada, ranked seventh in the world. “Definitely the podium is our goal and, of course, a gold medal,” she said. “I think it’s definitely a realistic goal for us. I think with any team, you have to set realistic goals and I think we’re doing that.” It will be no easy task for Canada, how- ever, having drawn a tough group with Japan (ranked third), Sweden (fourth) and South Africa (61st). The Canadian women will open the tournament against Japan on July 25, two days before the official opening of the Games, then play South Africa on July 28 and Sweden on July 31. “It’s a good thing because we have to start off playing at our top and usually teams grow throughout the competition, so if we have a great start and we keep getting better, that’s definitely a positive,” Chapman said of the tough group. Canada’s best outcome might well be to finish second in pool play, which would likely mean the team would avoid a quar- ter-final match-up with the U.S. or France, a team considered much better than its current sixth-place world ranking. How it all shakes down will be in large part determined by the golden foot of captain Christine Sinclair, who scored the lone goal against China, had both strikes in a recent 2-1 win over Brazil, and accounts for a huge percentage of Cana- da’s offence. Chapman, who scored the first goal of the Olympic tournament in Beijing, says the rest of the team will need to chip in and help Sinclair in London. “She’s a goal-scorer and we have to of course embrace it, but we need to start sharing the burden a little bit of that,” Chapman said. “Especially if we want to reach the podium, we have to get some help from other people to start scoring some of those goals.” Although the team still has a few cuts to make from its current 22-player roster, Chapman, a 29 year old who logs plenty of pitch time and recently earned her 100th cap for international play, is surely safe from Herdman’s axe. “I would hope so,” she said. “I don’t envy John right now with the decisions he has to make.” Bryanna McCarthy, also of Ajax, was not so fortunate with the last rounds of cuts, but at 20, has a bright future with the national program, assured Chapman, who was McCarthy’s roommate in Vancouver. “She’s still so young and I definitely see her in the national program in the coming years, for sure,” she said. As for Chapman, this could be her last kick at the can where the Olympics are concerned, and she plans to make the most of it. “I think it’s been an evolution for me on this team,” she said. “I’m trying to be a leader and figure out exactly what I can be for the team. I think in these last couple of years, I’m really stepping up in the back line and being a vocal leader, and also off the field, watch- ing film and having meetings with the back line and seeing how we can improve and what we’re doing well. So, I think it’s both on and off the field.” >BY BRIAN MCNAIR bmcnair@durhamregion.com Chapman sets sights on gold PHOTO BY SOCCER CANADA VANCOUVER -- Ajax’s Candace Chapman is expected to be a key player on the defensive line for the Canadian women’s soccer team at the 2012 Olympics in London.

A fun and different approach to improving any skill level of golfer Ironheads playoff bound Win over Orillia gives Jr. B lacrosse team eighth seed; face Akwesasne AJAX -- The Ajax Ironheads are heading to the playoffs, and that has a nice ring to it for head coach Ron Reed. Needing a pair of wins to close out the season in order to grab the eighth and final seed in the Eastern Conference, the Ironheads accomplished the feat, beating Mississauga 15-7 Sunday, and Orillia 15-8 on Tuesday, both at the Ajax Community Centre. The four points enabled them to finish with 14 (7-13-0) and leapfrog over Glouc- ester who, heading into the weekend, held the eighth spot in the conference with 12 points (6-14-0). “We’re pleasantly surprised considering the slump we went through and our lack of consistency,” said Reed of the season that included losing eight of nine from May 25 to June 14. “We told the guys we could only control what was put in our hands and those two (final) games were in our hands.” In the regular season finale on Tues- day, the Ironheads jumped out of the gate quickly, moving into a 3-0 lead just six min- utes into the game, and expanding it to 9-4 by the end of the first period. They were up 14-8 through two, and coasted through the third period, scoring once while keeping Orillia off the board in the 15-8 victory. Three players had five-point nights for the Ironheads, with George Jimas and Pat- rick Morgan each scoring twice and add- ing three assists, while Adam Kelusky had three goals and two assists. Other goal-scorers on the night included Steve Douitsis and Dylan Hutton with two each, and singles to James Malloy, Camer- on Ferguson, Adam Zulak and Shane Taka- hashi. On paper, the opening round playoff series against Akwesasne doesn’t yield much hope for the Ironheads. Akwesasne finished the season 19-1-0, and holds a 24-5 win over the Ironheads in the only meeting between the teams this season. But the Ironheads need look no further than the success of the Los Angeles Kings, who rode the eighth seed all the way through to become Stanley Cup champi- ons. “It’s definitely a David vs. Goliath when you look at the stats for sure,” said Reed. “We’re just happy to have the opportuni- ty. You only get better playing the best and we’re playing one of the best. “That’s been our nemesis. If we make the playoffs, we are always in the eighth spot and always playing the first- or second- seeded team. This is no exception. Hope- fully we can play a consistent 60 minutes of lacrosse and who knows what can hap- pen.” The best-of-five series will open with games one and two in Akwesasne this weekend, then return to Ajax for the final three games, as needed, the weekend of June 29. Details were still being worked out at press time.

Before departing for Pittsburgh and the NHL draft earlier this week to finish out his duties as a scout with the Phoenix Coy- otes, Twohey indicated he is closer to find- ing the next bench boss of the Generals. “It’s a long process. We’ve interviewed upwards of 20 guys and we’re getting close,” Twohey said. “We’ve got one more guy to interview and that will happen after the draft because he’s not going to be at the draft. I fully anticipate we can get somebody in place by the end of June.” Twohey added that while he had hoped to have the process wrapped up by now, there have been many circumstances involved that have hampered the club’s ability to complete the search. While he wouldn’t get into specifics in that regard, one of the rumored reasons has been the availability of former Generals forward Derek King, who just finished up a Calder Cup run earlier this month as an assistant coach with the AHL’s Toronto Marlies. Rumours circulated late last week that King was going to be Twohey’s guy, how- ever, the GM poured water on that fire this week. “Never heard from him,” Twohey said when asked about King being up for the job. Another much-talked about name has been former Kingston Frontenacs coach Jim Hulton, who has lengthy ties to Gen- erals part owner Peter DeBoer. However, Hulton told the Kingston Whig-Standard this week that he’s been notified he is out of the running after interviewing a few weeks back. Meanwhile, as Twohey continues the process of assembling the off-ice staff, he hopes to wrap up a deal with first-round pick Michael Dal Colle in the near future. He says the framework of a deal is in place and expects things to get finalized after Dal Colle returns from a vacation to Jamai- ca. > Ryan PfeiffeR / MetRoland Tackled OSHAWA -- Anderson Raiders player Dylan Chislett was tackled by Pickering Trojans player Steven Waite during the LOSSA Tier II senior boys’ rugby gold medal game at the Oshawa Viking Football Club.

Held at the Nepean Sportsplex, this com- petition is well known among swimmers and a time to test their strengths against long-standing Ottawa-area rivals. This sea- son, DSC swimmers stood on the podium multiple times, taking top three rankings in many categories. The competition began with the figures meet that saw all swimmers perform mul- tiple synchronized swimming movements at various stations. For DSC’s 10 and under team (coaches Sarah Stokes and Cathy Veldhoen-Smith), this was only the second time this season they experienced the ten- sion of the figures meet. These swimmers produced outstanding results. Megan Biss took the top standing and Madeleine Schropp took fourth place, while their teammates demonstrated some strong results. Sophia Lopers (11), Megan Gomes (12), Tara Gettisheim (22), Lauren Cart- er (23), Amy Nickerson (24), Sarah Leslie (26), Maya Lazenby (29), Siobhan Tyler (32) and Alexandra Adamsz (34). Finally, in the following day’s 10 and under team finals championship, this team placed fifth. Once again Madeleine MacNeil didn’t disappoint in a first-place finish in the 11-12 figures competition. Her teammates scooped up the top-10 rankings: Alicia Lopers (5), Erin Clark (6), Tianna Henry (7), Rachel Lall (8) and Emily Barton (10), much to the delight of their coach, DSC head coach Holley Lundmark. Continuing on this positive trend were Jordyn Gattie (20), Sarah Bianco (26), Lindsey Eyre (28), Nicole Exley (32), Stephanie Fattori (43), Beth Bagi (44), Maria Giuraniuc (45) and Cierra Dell (46). In the 11-12 years, solo finals champion- ship, Madeleine MacNeil swam away with a gold medal as coach Lundmark watched from the pool deck. The 11-12 years duet team of Emily Barton and Alicia Lopers took second place while coach Jenilee Kes- lering’s duet team of Erin Clark and Tianna Henry glowed with a bronze medal around their necks in the 11-12 years in duet finals championships. Lastly, DSC’s two 11-12 provincial teams stood on the podium together as DSC’s 11-12 A Team (coach Lundmark) took gold and DSC’s 11-12 B Team (coach Keslering) placed sixth in the 11-12 team finals cham- pionship. In the 13-15 figures category, Reyanne Padgett took fourth place and her team- mates also continued to show good results with Alison Exley (23), Ellie Kozak (34), McKenzie Broad (37), Brooke Evans (38), Selina Lall (39), Madelyn Minaret (40) and Amelia Massie (54). With a bright gold medal around her neck, Reyanne Padgett sparkled in top spot (coaches Lundmark and Maclean) showing that the judges in the 13-15 solo finals championship were not wary of spiders. Coach Kirsten Femson was proud of her team as DSC’s 13-15 team placed seventh overall in the 13-15 team finals championship.
