Members of Claremont United Church have collected more than 60 backpacks with school supplies for Grade 1 students at St. Andrew’s school in the Kashechewan First Nations community, located on the western shore of James Bay. “When it started we were hoping to get 20 backpacks,” said Wendy Duncan, chairwom- an of Mission and Outreach for Claremont United. “Before we knew it more and more people were signing up. It shows that when you tell people of someone in need, they are more than willing to help.” The project was inspired by Claremont res- ident Ashley Hill, who has been teaching at the remote school for two years. After spring break the church sent her back with boxes of nutritious snacks such as granola bars and fruit cups, and were keen to help again. “It’s a really remote fly-in communi- ty, so a lot of students don’t leave town often,” Ms. Hill said, noting the town itself is very small, with only one store. “Things are really expensive, probably two to three times what they would cost here, and a lot of families are quite large. If you have 10 children, to buy each of them supplies like backpacks and pen- cils isn’t really feasible.” Ms. Hill paid out of pocket to equip her Grade 4 students with backpacks last year, and was quick to suggest the idea when Ms. Duncan asked if there was anything they could do to help her Grade 1 students this year. “We have everything they need at school, but they don’t necessarily have supplies at home,” Ms. Hill explained. “This will have a great long-term effect because they’ll be able to use it for the next few years and educationally it’s helpful because they’ll be able to do school work at home.” The community is sending 63 backpacks full of school supplies, enough for all the school’s Grade 1 students, as well as an addi- tional 50 backpacks without supplies, which will be handed out to older students. “Everybody is so enthused because this is an Ontario community,” Ms. Duncan said, noting the shipping boxes and the shipping costs to Timmins were both unexpectedly donated by the companies they approached to purchase the services from. “It’s exciting to know we’re doing some- thing that will make a difference to these children,” Ms. Duncan said. “We’re not sure yet if this will be an annual thing but we will continue to be involved with the school.” For Ms. Hill, the generosity of the commu- nity wasn’t surprising. “It’s unbelievable what they’ve done, but Claremont is really good for that,” she said. “Anytime you have a campaign the com- munity always seems to be there, willing to help.” peter reDMan photo CLAREMONT -- Liam May, 14, Lianne Gilmour, 10, Bryn Allan, 14, Emily Dawson, 7, and Kira Dawson, 12, worked in the basement of Claremont United Church on Aug. 22, packing up the last of several boxes of backpacks heading to Kashechewan. > PICKERING -- Area photographers will be put- ting their talents on display during the Silver- Stone Gallery’s upcoming Photographers in the Gallery exhibit.

Residents, businesses and organizations encouraged to get involved Tara HaTHerly thatherly@durhamregion.com AJAX -- Ajax wants to know what sustainabil- ity means to you. The Town’s “What does sustainability mean to you?” campaign is intended to build pub- lic engagement and awareness in advance of the Nov. 27 release of Ajax’s draft community sustainability plan. “The integrated commu- nity sustainability plan will guide us over the next 43 years to Ajax’s centennial anniversary in 2055,” explained Tracey Chala, Ajax envi- ronmental sustainability coordinator. “It con- siders our economy, society (and) culture, as well as our environment.” The Town is creating the plan with the help of LURA Consulting. The campaign not only aims to include residents, businesses and community orga- nizations in the creation of a long-term sus- tainability plan, but also hopes to earn Ajax federal gas tax funding that the Town would invest in environmentally sustainable infra- structure to help keep its water and air clean and lower greenhouse gas emissions. The campaign’s website can be found at www.sustainableajax.ca/icsp. Along with information, news and updates, the web- site features videos of Ajax residents defining what sustainability means to them. A pictorial blog on the website chronicles the creation of two 10-by-10-foot mosaics of the Sustainable Ajax logo at the Ajax Com- munity Centre and McLean Community Centre, which are being created using resi- dent-signed commitment cards. Through the website, residents can tell Ajax what sustainability means to them, what they love about the Town and how they want to see sustainability ensured. The multi-faceted campaign also encour- ages residents to get involved through give- aways, a youth eco art contest and a family sustainability challenge. The eco art contest is open to youths in Grade 4 through 12, shares the campaign’s theme and closes Friday, Nov. 9. Youths are encouraged to use their imagination. Sub- missions can take any form, including a song, video, story, poem, photograph, paint- ing, drawing, mosaic, sculpture or presenta- tion. A total of $1,000 in prizes is up for grabs, including an Apple iPod Touch, BlackBerry PlayBook, Fujifilm waterproof digital camera and more. Submissions will be judged during the Youth Eco Art Show Nov. 27. Registration forms and submission instructions can be found on the campaign’s website. Families are encouraged to get involved by taking a family sustainability challenge from Sept. 14 to 16. Challenges and prizes will be posted on the campaign’s website Friday, Sept. 7. The campaign will finish with Sustainable Ajax Day Nov. 28, when Ajax businesses and organizations will redirect online traffic from their websites to the Sustainable Ajax site in a show of support. Organizations and busi- nesses that participate will be recognized on the campaign’s website. To get involved, con- tact Rachael Wraith, Ajax senior economic development officer, at rachael.wraith@ajax. ca or by calling 905-619-2529, ext. 3263. “It is important that we all get involved in the creation of the plan and leave our mark,” Ms. Chala said. “It is up to us to envision a common future to ensure that the communi- ty is vibrant and resilient now and for our kids and grandkids.” BY P O P U L A R DEMAND!

In Ontario, working smoke alarms are required on every floor of a home and out- side every sleeping area, with no excep- tions. Apartment buildings and student dormitories may also have building fire alarm systems, and occupants are advised to become familiar with the features of those systems. Under the Ontario Building Code, car- bon monoxide alarms are required in new buildings with natural gas, propane or wood-fired appliances. Buildings con- structed before the requirement may not be equipped with carbon monoxide alarms, but Ajax Fire advises that carbon monoxide alarms should be installed in all buildings where fuel-fired appliances are present. To determine if there are area bylaws concern- ing the use and placement of carbon mon- oxide alarms, contact the local municipal office or fire department where a building is located. To ensure escape during a fire, securi- ty bars on windows should have a quick- opening device that allows the bars to be removed quickly from the inside, and every room or apartment must have adequate, unobstructed exits. As well, all windows and doors should be fully operational, and stairways and hallways kept clear of storage items. Fire safety plans are required in large apartment buildings and student dormi- tories. Occupants are advised to become familiar with their building’s fire safety plan, so they know what to do and where to go during a fire. Smaller apartment buildings and apart- ments inside houses may not have fire safe- ty plans. Tenants are encouraged to devise a fire safety plan for their apartment, and to ensure there are two ways out of a unit before moving in. Homes that have been converted into apartments or rooming houses should have building permits to show the conver- sions are fire safe. For more information on fire prevention, contact Ajax Fire at 905-683-7791.

Recent changes to DRT bus routes now require passengers who board at Pickering to get off at the already congested Ajax GO station and get on another bus to get to Durham college. This is not progress or an improvement to service; it adds to congestion, as well as decreases ridership because, quite frankly, I’ll take the car. Changing buses, stopovers and delays are not a convenience to anyone, especially at 7 a.m. Where did the 915 direct bus from Pickering to Durham College go? Can we have our 915 bus service back, please? Kimberley Walsh Pickering Inefficiency of ethanol is well established To the editor: Re: ‘Port Authority OKs Oshawa ethanol plant’, news, durhamregion.com, Aug. 9, 2012. At a time when several U.S. states, because of the drought there, are seeking exemption from the requirement to use certain portions of corn crops for ethanol, Oshawa Port Authority is planning an eth- anol plant. The inefficiency of ethanol use has long been established; the price and availability of corn, and of meat from ani- mals fed with corn, is affected worldwide by local droughts. The changes in climate threaten contin- ued droughts and floods, putting our crops at abnormal risk. It’s time to stop produc- tion of ethanol from food crops. Glenn Brown Pickering Not much humour in attacking religious icons To the editor: Re: ‘Crone column offensive’, letter to the editor, durhamregion.com, July 27, 2012. In my opinion, attributing such a triv- ial quote to Jesus is disrespectful toward Christianity, its history and Jesus’s mes- sage. I can appreciate that this may not have been the intent and my purpose is not to admonish or chastise. I simply wish to express my opinion which is that the beliefs or figures central to any religion or representation of any- one’s faith should not be fodder for com- edy. Though I may not be purchasing Crone’s Who Farted? book anytime soon, this is far better material for his routine. Samantha Foster Pickering No apologies necessary To the editor: Re: ‘Crone column offensive’, letter to the editor, durhamregion.com, July 27, 2012. I am rather disappointed in our society as a whole when people choose to pick apart an interesting opinion to push their uned- ucated religious agenda. The letter writer is criticizing the paper for publishing Neil’s opinion because of a reference that included Hitler and Jesus in the same sentence. His position is that it is offensive to com- pare the two because Jesus was a man of peace and Hitler was responsible for mil- lions of deaths. The catch here would be that Hitler moti- vated a nation based on misguided ide- als to murder people. Jesus (I note that he did not ask people to kill millions) inspired several religious wars, most notably the Crusades where more than one million Muslims were killed in the name of God. Actually even Hitler was a noted Chris- tian and preached the purging of Jews from such a context. Simply including the two in the same sentence (especially one that is humorously intended) is not so offensive. I suggest that the offence here is that peo- ple don’t really know what it is they are even offended about. Learn a little more, laugh a little more, and enjoy a story like Neil’s for the enjoyment and insight it is meant to provide. No apologies necessary by writer or by the publication.

While they focus on the excitement of a new school year, renewing acquaintances and getting settled into academic studies, they should also take the time to ensure that fire safety is on their agenda. Ajax fire officials took the opportunity this week to remind students and their parents about the importance of fire pre- vention, awareness and safety practices. That message is especially resonant as the new school year approaches: three high school students perished in a Whitby house fire near the end of school in April of this year. Their tragic loss is still being felt in the community and within their families. Whether you’re a student beginning post-secondary school and moving into a dorm or basement apartment, or a high school student still living with parents, the time is now to ensure that the place you call home is properly fitted with smoke alarms and carbon monoxide detectors, that pathways in the home are unobstruct- ed, that windows are accessible, and that everyone knows what do to in the event of fire. And those who rent living space to stu- dents must also meet minimum building and fire code regulations to promote safe- ty. To that end, parents or students who are renting or plan to rent are encouraged to ask building owners or superintendents if the property complies with relevant codes. However, the responsibility for safety and fire prevention falls to each individu- al. Students attending new schools and liv- ing in new accommodations would do well to become familiar with their sur- roundings, devise and study a fire escape plan and ensure there are two ways out of any unit they are planning to occupy. The new school year arrives with high hopes and the promise of horizons being expanded, skills being refined and a fresh start at focusing on academics. Take the necessary steps now to pro- mote fire safety and to ensure that your focus can remain on your studies and not on dealing with the consequences of a fire. 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 • Au g u s t 2 4 , 2 0 1 2 6 AP 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 • Au g u s t 2 4 , 2 0 1 2 7 AP 155HarwoodAveN,#D,Ajax (905)427-9338 Mon.-Sat.9am-9pm,Sun.10am-6pm JOINTHECLUB www.supersaversclubcard.com Finduson 7amto9pm August27thMONDAY to SCHOOLSale BACK ·ACCESSORIES ·BED&BATH ·CLOTHING ·SHOES 50%OFF* .ees or furniturwarems tagged house), books, and ited tagschandise (rw mer, neelrywcludes jex*Sale e armando villavona Photo Second Chance adoptathon PICKERING -- Doug Bell and son Chad, left, came to the shelter on Aug.18 during the third annual memorial adoptathon at the Second Chance Animal Shelter. 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 • Au g u s t 2 4 , 2 0 1 2 8 P “The main goal is to provide a connection with past peoples and understand what’s hidden that is actually remnants of our past lives,” said Cathy Crinnion, senior archae- ologist for the TRCA, noting students who complete the course have all the basic skills needed to work for an archaeology firm. “A lot of urban centres are expanding so quickly,” she continued. “Archaeology is very important in south- ern Ontario to capture all that information before it’s bulldozed. We hope these stu- dents will go on to be thoughtful citizens if they live in urban centres and retain an appreciation of archaeology.” The site, which dates from 1275 to 1375, was discovered during surveys of the pro- vincially owned Seaton lands and is now an archaeological preserve. A former farmer’s field, the site is covered with goldenrod and bordered by forests, with little to tip off the untrained eye to the historical significance hidden just beneath the soil. “Knowing how to identify artifacts is amaz- ing,” said Michaela Boutin-Bourque, of Peterborough, who was busily excavat- ing a cluster of four square-shaped plots along with three class- mates. “It’s something none of us would have been able to do before,” she continued. “Now we can look at something and say that’s a piece of pottery or a turtle bone. We usually find really little bits but it’s exciting.” The students got a first-hand taste of the life they are excavating during a weekend assignment that forced them to surrender their cellphones and live like one of the vil- lage’s inhabitants, using nature to create tools including fish nets, spears, baskets and rope. “I really liked the day in the life of an archaic person, it was fascinat- ing because it was almost like you were a per- son from that time,” said Dana Burlac of Rich- mond Hill. “Hav- ing to find things and using things from nature, you really learn a lot about what it would have been like to live back then.” Brooklin’s Kieran Alli, 16, was the lone Durham student among the group. “I thought it would be an interesting pro- gram and so far it’s been very rewarding,” he explained as he screened buckets of soil excavated from a nearby plot, careful- ly combing through the debris left on the screen in search of small shards of pottery or tools or pieces of animal bone that could provide insight into the diet of the villagers. “My favourite part has been learning all the history of the first peoples in Canada that I didn’t know about,” he explained. “It was very interesting to make tools that would have been used in the traditional fashion, you really got to see how difficult it was.” All the participating students receive a Grade 12 credit for the course.

There are several benefits to having new windows and doors in your home. First, they improve the overall look of your house and increase its value. New windows and doors are also much more energy efficient, which means you can keep your heating and air conditioning inside, reducing your monthly bills. It may be tempting to pick up some windows and install them yourself, but you may find that you’re not getting the highest quality windows and the installation is trickier than it seems. Even if you buy the best windows on the market, if they are not installed and sealed properly, they essentially become worthless. “If a window or door is not installed properly, you can get drafts coming into the house,” explains Wayne Hutchinson, owner of Durham Windows and Doors. “I often get calls from people who have tried to install windows themselves or have used a friend or family member to come out and fix the installation.” Homeowners can save themselves the cost and trouble by having their windows and doors done properly the first time. Specializing only in windows and doors, Wayne and his staff have earned a reputation for their great work. Wayne will come to your house to measure and will bring with him samples of the windows that he has available. Not only can you shop from the comfort of your own home, but you can also see exactly how the windows will look. “After being in this business for 34 years, I can honestly say these are the finest windows on the market,” says Wayne. “They’re triple sealed to reduce air leakage and come with heavy duty hardware.” All of the windows come with a lifetime warranty on the frame, hardware and glass. Homeowners may also be tempted to hire a company that is willing to work under the table. The problem is that while they may save money short-term, it could cost them everything in the long run. If a worker is not insured and gets injured in your home, you are liable. Fly by night companies also won’t be around to honour warranties or help with any issues that come up. All of the installers at Durham Windows and Doors are staff, not subcontractors, are fully insured and have their WSIB certificates. Durham Windows and Doors is located at 696 King Street West in Oshawa.

The lakes can provide a calming getaway that’s also close to home. When you’re out on the water, you can catch a cool breeze, relax in the sun, and float over the fish in a boat. Luckily, you don’t need to own a fine seafaring vessel to enjoy the water -- Durham’s local businesses have got you covered. If you’re interested in using nature to power your boat, you can head to the Whitby Yacht Club or Frenchman’s Bay Yacht Club to try sailing courses. Enjoy harness- ing the wind as you power your craft without using any motors, just the power of the wind. For more informa- tion, visit www.wyc.ca and www.fbyc.ca. Do you feel like relaxing on the water with good food and friends? Check out Scugog Island Cruises in Port Perry. Public sightseeing cruises are available and they often include a meal. For more information, visit www. scugogcruises.com. The Port Perry Marina, located on Lake Scugog in downtown Port Perry, rents canoes, kayaks and paddle boats by the hour, half day and full day. Fishing and pon- toon boats are also available for rent, if you have your Unique boating experiences in Durham Region boating licence. Rentals begin at $7 an hour, and the pictur- esque Lake Scugog shoreline is perfect for exploring. Visit www. portperrymarina.ca. Silverstone Paddle Company is located in Frenchman’s Bay Nautical Village at the foot of Liverpool Road in Pickering. It is a well-sheltered bay, protected from overly choppy waters, also making this area a great place for beginners to try paddling. At Silverstone, you can rent a canoe or kayak for a couple of hours starting at $20. Frenchman’s Bay is full of unique shops, galleries and restaurants where you can relax after your adventure. Visit www.silverstonepaddle.com. Of course, there’s also the scenic Lake Simcoe shoreline in Beaverton. There is a public beach and boat launch with easy access to the downtown area to do some shopping and dining. When you head out on the water, be sure to check the weath- er, stay hydrated and apply lots of sunscreen. Remember to stay safe by wearing a life jacket and taking safety gear, like a whistle, first-aid kit and bail bucket. If you don’t have them, be sure to ask if they’re included in your rental.

While you're hard at work preparing your home for the cooler days ahead, double check that your task list includes the tips below. They can help keep you and your family safe: • Have your furnace inspected. Get your furnace inspected by a licensed heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) contractor before the winter rush. • Clean or replace your natural gas furnace filter according to the certified manufacturer's instructions. Dirty filters restrict airflow and force your furnace to work harder, which uses more natural gas to heat your home. Many manufacturers suggest replacing every three months. • Install a CO detector. Malfunctioning gas appliances or venting can cause Carbon Monoxide (CO) build-up in your living space. CO is colourless, odourless, tasteless and deadly. Installing a detector can save lives. • Call before you dig. Looking to build a fence or plant for next season? It's the law to call before you dig. Ontario One Call, a free locating service, will let you know which of its members have utilities in your dig area. Contact them at least one week before starting your project at www.on1call.com or 1-800-400-2255.

Durham’s Jonas Bonnetta uses his music as a way to provide closure WILL MCGUIRK newsroom@durhamregion.com DURHAM -- For Jonas Bonnetta, it was the passing of his father in 2009 that inspired his latest recording, Spectral Dusk. The 11-track album was conceived in part as a release from the mourning and as a way to provide closure for this chapter of his family’s life. It is an album that deals with grief, absence, moving on, melancholy but also celebration of a life lived and hope for the future. “I’ve always been one to write about what’s on my mind and in my heart,” says Bonnetta, “and of course losing my dad was in everything I was doing.” Presenting such a private world on a public stage comes with its own difficul- ties. The questions arise as to whether audiences will be receptive and respon- sive and whether family members too will be receptive to public airings of pri- vate moments. “Playing it live I can escape a bit into the performance and remove myself from the audience so I’m not too ner- vous” he says. “It kind of thrives on that intimacy. I made this record for my mom and brothers and sister so it’s nice to be able to play it for them. We’re a real- ly open family and have been talking about dad’s passing for a long time. I get most of my strength from them. I only hope that they find some release in this record too”. The one-time resident of Orono plays under the moniker Evening Hymns. Spectral Dusk is the second full-length from the band which also includes his partner Sylvie Smith. Evening Hymns has previously released the full-length Spirit Guides in 2009 plus the Let’s All Get Happy EP in 2007. Jonas Bonnet- ta as a solo act released the full-length Farewell To Harmony in 2007. Much of the recording for Spectral Dusk took place in and around the Bon- netta family cottage near Perth. The folk-inflected singer/songwriter spent time in places steeped in good memo- ries, reliving moments spent with his father. The songs Cabin In The Burn and Irving Lake Access Road name-check those special spaces near the family’s second home. Spectral Dusk is a very personal record documenting not just his own relation- ship with his father, Spirit In The Sky, but also that of his younger brother You And Jake. Family Tree explores the notion of what family means. The album is book- ended by field recordings made around the cottage. “The idea with recording up north was to escape the other distractions that comes with the city so that we could focus on making the record,” says Bon- netta who now lives in Toronto. “Being up north gave us the space and quiet to think about what we were doing and to spend time exploring all these different sonic ideas”. Evening Hymns invited in many guests to sit in on the recording which was helmed by James Bunton of Ohbi- jou. Members of The Wooden Sky, City and Colour, D’Urbervilles, Ohbijou and Timber Timbre all chipped in and some will be involved with the live perfor- mances of Spectral Dusk. “The release shows will be bigger bands. We’re a seven-piece in Toron- to and we’re off to Europe/UK at the beginning of September for a month- and-a-half tour with The Wooden Sky who will be playing in our band. They were the main band on the record and so it’ll be nice to play as a seven-piece band in front of those crowds too.” Spectral Dusk was debuted at The Great Hall (lower theatre) in Toronto Friday, Aug. 17 and at Raw Sugar Cafe in Ottawa on Sunday, Aug. 19. The Great Hall show was recorded by the CBC for future broadcast on Radio 2’s Canada Live. Evening Hymns will tour Europe into the fall. The album will be available on Shuf- fling Feet Records in Canada. The record is also available in a limited edi- tion double vinyl with silkscreening on the fourth side. Father’s death inspires recording ‘ I’ve always been one to write about what’s on my mind and in my heart. Jonas Bonnetta SUBMITTED PHOTO DURHAM -- Jonas Bonnetta with his partner Sylvie Smith. The band Evening Hymns is releasing its second full-length album Spectral Dusk. The loss of Bonnetta’s father inspired him to come up with many of the themes and songs included in the album. 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 • Au g u s t 2 4 , 2 0 1 2 14 AP Carrier of the We ek Ajax &Pickering Locations8SalemRdSouth Ajax,ON L1S 7T7 To day’s Carrier of the Week is Tr evor.He enjoys skateboarding and unicycling.Tr evor has received dinner vouchers compliments of McDonald’s,Subway and Boston Pizza.

Murphy’s Pub builds scene, brings indie music to Durham ears Oshawa fosters vibrant art and music community Emperor Bulash, a four-piece from Hal- ifax, are playing Ziggy (POP) nights Aug. 30 at Murphy’s Pub. It’s an all out-of-town line-up. These kats have a bit of a Bowie vibe to them, funnily enough, or a Hawksley Workman ... either/or. Also on the bill and touring with the Bulash are Walrus who have a nice noise- pop thing going on, very much part of the WeirdCanada scene with cassette release and atmospheric MBV soundscapes. I haven’t been writing about my weekly Ziggy night as it is somewhat self-serving. However it’s been going since May and it is beginning to get a rep. It is on the tour- ing map. Bands from various parts of the country are asking to play. Ornaments from Ottawa have been on the schedule as well as Astral Gunk from Sackville and Elk from St. Catharines. Locally it is still building but I am happy to say that Murphy’s has been pleased with the results and is now actively look- ing for bands for its Friday and Saturday nights. If you want to play hit me up and we will work something out for you. The point today is that culture activists in this area have been working steadily at getting those not-in-the-know to notice what a great, cool and vibrant arts scene we have here in Durham. That work has paid off with original-voiced locals being sought out for municipal and institu- tional stages. All have been received with positive reviews. So it’s time now to build bridges with other communities, to invite them over and show off the Shwa. On a grassroots level we need to send visitors back home with a positive view of this city, this downtown. I’d like to fill the pockets of these touring musicians with all sorts of loot, not just their payment but gifts, promos, coupons and stories... great stories about how Oshawa values art and music. I cannot do that alone nor can Murphy’s Pub. But if you hand me promo I can pass it on to these visitors. If you have specials on food I can pass that info on to them and send them your way. If you have sto- ries you want shared with other commu- nities, well, touring musicians are great storytellers. They are street-level ambas- sadors. After a Ziggy (POP) night the bands say they had a great time and would like to come back to Murphy’s Pub. But I need your help if we want them to say they had a great time and want to come back to downtown Oshawa. -- William McGuirk is a freelance writer and longtime Oshawa resident.

OPEN HOUSE SUNDAY 1-5 PM 81 MANDRAKE ST.,AJAX SportsSports Brad Kelly- Sports Editor • bkelly@durhamregion.com London 2012 to feature record number of athletes TYLER RICHARDS newsroom@durhamregion.com AJAX -- Excelling and being active in sports is a challenge for the unhindered, but for those who live every day with a disability, it is all the more so. That is what makes the Paralympic Games so special. It gives those indi- viduals a chance to show that being dis- abled doesn’t make them different than anyone else in the world of sports. Sixty-four years ago a group of veter- ans with injuries sustained in the Sec- ond World War got together just outside of London, England at what was known as the Stoke Mandeville Games. They gathered on a grassy hill and compet- ed against each other in archery near a veterans’ hospital. Those war veterans didn’t know that what they had started would turn into one of the world’s premier sport- ing events for those who are physically impaired. Fast forward to 2012 and the mod- ern Paralympic Games have returned to Great Britain and feature more than 4,200 athletes from 165 countries around the world. The London Paralympics will over- shadow the Beijing games by almost 1,000 participants. More than 3.8 billion people world- wide watched the 2008 Paralympic Games in Beijing, according to paralym- pic.org, and millions of others watched in person at venues all over China. Even more are sure to watch during this year’s games, especially in Canada, as 150 of our athletes will cross the pond to compete in this year’s games. Ajax’s Brenda Whitehead has a spe- cial connection to the Paralympics. Her daughter, Victoria Nolan, is blind and she will be rowing for Canada this sum- mer in London. “She wanted to prove to her children that just because she was blind that didn’t mean she couldn’t do anything,” Whitehead said. “When she was young- er she didn’t play sports. She couldn’t see the ball. We didn’t know at the time that she was going blind, I don’t think she even knew, but I don’t think the time before she lost her vision has any- thing to do with her ability to compete now. She just does it for her kids.” This will be Nolan’s second Paralym- pics. Her first was four years ago in Bei- jing and of course her biggest fan, her mother, was in the stands watching. “I remember we caught a swimming race when we were there and there was a man who had no arms competing,” Whitehead recalled. “I said to my other daughter, ‘how is he going to swim with no arms?’ Well he swam and he placed first. He swam like a dolphin does. “It is just amazing what some of these athletes can do despite their disability.” Whitehead had no idea that this year’s games were going to be the biggest in history, but she is glad to see that there are so many people competing and watching the games. “It really brings awareness and it is nice to see that many people out and willing to support a cause.” Paralympians have so much more playing against them than just the other competitors. They also have their own disabilities to contend with, as well as a financial burden that’s typically heftier than for the Olympians. Nolan trains 20 hours a week after working a 40-hour work week and then has her children and husband on top of all of that. According to an article published in the Toronto Star, Nolan will be retiring from rowing after this Paralympics, but her goal was accomplished long ago: the goal of proving to her children that if she can still compete globally while being disabled, they can do anything. “To have that many eyes watching her is something really amazing,” White- head said. “I am proud of her and every- thing she has done.” Sports Briefs Ranger on the road to an NHL comeback with Marlies TORONTO -- After nearly three years away from the game as a player, it appears Paul Ranger is ready to give his hockey career another shot. The Whitby native and former Tampa Bay Lightning blueliner signed a deal with the Ameri- can Hockey League’s Toronto Marlies earlier this week. Ranger, who played four seasons with the Lightning, collecting 18 goals and 92 points in 270 games, last played professional hockey in the fall of 2009 before walking away from the game due to personal reasons. While those issues have never been divulged publicly, earlier this year it seemed as though Ranger was at peace with his decision to move on with his career as he was settling back in these parts and helping coach the Whitby Wildcats ban- tam AAA team. However, it’s appears he’s jumping in head first at this chance to impress not only the Marlies, but their parent club the Toronto Maple Leafs. Ranger was in Toronto this week skating with members of the Marlies, and according to a report on Sportsnet.ca, there is a chance he could earn a spot at Maple Leafs’ main camp next month, pro- viding labour negotiations progress and the sea- son starts on time. Ranger, who played junior for the Oshawa Generals, was a 2002 sixth-round pick of Tampa Bay. Hearth Place fundraiser ready for takeoff OSHAWA -- The third annual Hearth Place 5K on the Runway fundraising event is ready for takeoff Sept. 23 at the Oshawa Municipal Airport. Last year, there were some 600 participants who experienced the thrill of running or walking on the runways of the airport. Not only did the event raise more than $50,000 to fund programming for cancer patients and their families, but it was also a great opportunity for corporations and businesses to support a worthy cause while promoting their products and services. Participants range from serious runners and recreational walkers, to families and school chil- dren. All air traffic at the airport will cease from 9 a.m. until 1:30 p.m. on Sept. 23, while runners, walkers and their supporters participate. The runways will be divided into a 5K course for more serious walkers and runners and a 1K course for those looking for a more leisurely way to support Hearth Place.
