Heroin use spikes in Durham Region REKA SZEKELY rszekely@durhamregion.com DURHAM -- She lost her job, her kids and almost her life in a destructive spiral that started three and a half years ago when she first tried shooting OxyContin. Now, Mary -- not her real name -- is on the path to recovery with support from Durham’s Pinewood Centre and her loved ones. “Even when everything is at its worst and you’re scraping that bottom of the barrel, you just have to find that faith that you can do this ... if you put that effort in, you can get better,” she said. “But it’s never going to be easy, it’s going to be work.” After alcohol, opiates are the most com- mon addiction treated at the Pinewood Centre. Officials from Pinewood and the John Howard Society report changes last year to the availability of OxyContin, a brand name for oxycodone, has had a major impact on Durham opiate drug users, plunging some into crisis. In March 2012, the Province de-listed oxycodone products from the Ontario Drug Benefit Program after the number of prescriptions for oxycodone rose by 900 per cent between 1991 and 2009 and Ontario logged the highest rates of opioid use in the country. 447,785* durhamregion.com • Pressrun 54,400 • 56 pages • Optional 3-week delivery $6/$1 newsstand Program, John Howard Society of Durham.

SaturdayAugust 24th 9:30am-6:00pm 75 Bayly St.We st,Ajax 905-427-4194 www.onceuponachildajax.com ® Hundreds of residents attend waterfront rally Event held to highlight water quality issues and sewage plant expansion plans Kristen Calis kcalis@durhamregion.com AJAX -- Local residents signed a petition, held signs and peacefully rallied at Rotary Park on Saturday to support a cleaner Lake Ontario. Elizabeth May, Green Party leader and MP for the Sannich-Gulf Islands, spoke at the May Day rally, held by the Town of Ajax and Pickering Ajax Citizens Togeth- er to Protect our Water (PACT POW). The group is concerned with the water quality around the Duffin Creek water treatment plant, and says Ajax and Pickering shore- lines are slowly deteriorating from exces- sive algae growth. The plant, jointly owned by Durham and York regions, is being expanded to handle population growth, primarily occurring in York. The larger plant, located at the foot of Squires Beach Road in Pickering, is expected to discharge up to 630 mil- lion litres of effluent a day. The Town of Ajax has argued that algae growth along its waterfront is caused by phosphorus in treated sewage. Currently, the outfall pipe for the plant extends one kilometre out into Lake Ontario and Ajax would like it to be extended to three kilometres. Local politicians from Ajax, Pickering, Oshawa and Clarington joined the citi- zens and groups concerned with the plant. They called on York and Durham to invest in state-of-the-art infrastructure for the plant. The Duffin Creek Water Pollution Con- trol Plant is the second largest sewage plant in Ontario, with 80 per cent of the sewage coming from York Region. PACT POW believes the low-cost, minor adjustment to the existing outfall pipe that the Regions are considering to accommo- date the growth isn’t enough. “Instead of the Region of Durham back- ing the Town, they’re working against us,” said former Ajax mayor Bill Parish. He spoke of the time, money and effort Ajax council has put into to beautifying its waterfront over the years. “Now there’s a monster -- the Duffin Creek Water Pollution Control Plant -- and that monster is growing every day,” he said, encouraging residents to “step up to the plate and take some action.” Ward 1 Pickering Regional councillor Jennifer O’Connell had similar thoughts. “It’s so important that you contact your local representatives,” she said. “It’s the only way to really get them involved.” Ms. May spoke of the importance of pro- tecting the Great Lakes, and the need for new regulations and technology. She men- tioned York Region is currently considering technology for a new plant on Lake Sim- coe. PACT POW says it would reduce phos- phorus levels by 97.5 per cent more than the number targeted at the Duffin plant. “They’re going that extra mile in Lake Simcoe,” said Ms. May. Coun. O’Connell said, “Why do we deserve less?” Ms. May said the Great Lakes go beyond local importance, and they’re a responsi- bility of the federal government too. She feels there’s been less attention on the Great Lakes than in the past, and hopes the Ajax issue could reignite a focus on the fresh waters once again. Residents held signs that read ‘Sewage dilution is not the solution,’ ‘Stop polluting Lake Ontario,’ ‘Stop stinky algae’ and ‘We want to swim in our lake.’ “I live in Ajax and this is an important issue and I think it was a great privilege to see all the speakers,” said Lisa Paszkows- ki, who added she came to learn more about the issues affecting the waterfront. Environmental Defence, Sierra Club, Lands Over Landings and Durham CLEAR also participated in the rally.

New Hwy. 407 construction gets underway DURHAM -- The construction of Dur- ham's newest thoroughfare is underway as workers begin clearing the land along the planned Highway 407 route. Vegetation along the route is now being cleared, and crews have also begun pile driving, which is required for the construction of overpasses, at vari- ous locations. Throughout the summer and fall crews will be working on stream realign- ments, culverts, excavations and build- ing structures. Residents will see activity along the entire Hwy. 407 East phase 1 route, which runs from Brock Road in Pickering to Harmony Road in Oshawa, and along the West Durham Line, which will con- nect the new road with Highway 401 near Lakeridge Road. There are currently no road closures or delays, with construction at most of the 11 interchanges along the route tak- ing place adjacent to existing roads to minimize any traffic disruptions. OSHAWA -- Workers from Lumberjacks Tree Service cleared trees from the side of a steep hill on Ritson Road North in preparation for the Hwy. 407 extension construction.

RYAN PFEIFFER / METROLAND Travelling clock in Durham highlights Ontario debt Tour shows public provincial debt rises by $32 million a day Keith GilliGan kgilligan@durhamregion.com DURHAM -- Every second, $372 is added to Ontario’s debt. It’s that non-stop ticking that has the Ontario chapter of the Canadian Taxpay- ers Federation travelling around the prov- ince with its debt clock. The tour stopped at Oshawa City Hall Wednesday afternoon, before heading to the Ajax Town Hall. “It’s a 28-day tour to raise awareness about the debt, the chronic overspend- ing,” said Candice Malcolm, Ontario direc- tor of CTF. “We’re trying to engage people, to talk about the debt and the dangers of carrying this much debt.” Ontario’s debt currently sits at about $257 billion and is rising by $32.2 million a day, she noted. “The Canadian Taxpayers Federation says the government should run its budget like Ontario families and businesses,” Ms. Malcolm said. Servicing the debt is the third largest expenditure for the Ontario government, costing it $10 billion annually. “That’s being passed onto future generations.” She noted the reaction to the clock is “most people are kind of surprised by it. They say it’s scary and don’t want to see it.” Others have said they’d like to see a change in government and “there were some choice remarks about Dalton McGuinty,” Ms. Malcolm added. “Fifty per cent of spending at Queen’s Park is wages, severances, pensions, employee compensation. Government bureaucrats make 20 per cent more than the private sector” doing a comparable job, she said. “When you’re spending $10 billion on the debt, that’s money you can’t spend on paving roads, hospitals, schools,” Ms. Malcolm noted. “We encourage a change at Queen’s Park. We want to get people to pay attention. People are tired of holding so much debt.” She pointed out, “Every man, woman and child in the province is on the hook for more than $19,000. Everybody, even newborns. It’s chronic overspending.” She noted the Liberal government recently issued its sixth consecutive bud- get with a deficit. “Someone has to pay it back. It’s future generations. There’s now $200 billion more revenue than 10 years ago. It’s not a revenue problem. It’s a spending prob- lem,” Ms. Malcolm stated. Durham MPP John O’Toole said, “We’re spending more than we’re collecting. When interest rates go up, we’re screwed totally.” The money spent on servicing the debt is about what the current deficit is, Mr. O’Toole added. 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 1 , 2 0 1 3 4 AP DRIVING ACADEMY Group Discounts Available (for 3 or more) Mini Package Available An Installment Payment Plan For Yo ur Convenience Beginner Driver Education Course Provider CALL NOW, SPACE IS LIMITED HOURS: 7 DAYS A WEEK, 10 AM - 10 PM PETER’S •20 hours in classroom instruction •10 private in-car lessons on automatic •FREE pick-up at home •Courses start every week •Defensive driving instruction Learn Life Saving Skills •Skid Control Evasive Maneuvers •Braking Te chniques •FREE progress re port card •EARLIER ROAD TEST TRAIN WITH THE PROFESSIONALS! 965 Dundas St.W.

Although the scariest time of year is typi- cally Halloween, Keith Gilligan’s article is nothing less than terrifying. Nineteen thou- sand dollars of debt for each man, woman and child is disgusting. That people say: “it’s scary and don’t want to see it” is the unfortunate part of how we Ontarians are unwilling to make our provincial government account- able for its gross misspending. Gas plant cancellations, E-health, and the Ornge scandal are only the latest of costly provincial political blunders. Unlike cor- porations that can declare bankruptcy and start out again with a clean balance sheet (although the city of Detroit did that last month) our provincial government will continue to borrow, tax and spend, and we all will pay for all of it...some day. Steven Clift Whitby Debt clock digits upset Durham resident. A Stanley Cup moment lost This Friday, Aug. 23 I’ll be doing a part of my job I don’t get to do that often. I’ll be playing in the Bryan Bickell Charity Classic golf tournament. It’s a chance to get out of the office, play some golf and hopefully, meet Bryan Bickell, who was a key component in the Chicago Blackhawks Stanley Cup win over the Bos- ton Bruins. I had Chicago in my pool to win the cup and they didn’t disappoint. It’s too bad the Cup won’t be there as it is someone else’s turn with it that day. But, this wouldn’t be my first up close and personal moment with the Stanley Cup. In 2006, Justin Williams, from Cobourg, was a member of the Stanley Cup-winning Carolina Hurricanes. I was the editor of our Cobourg paper then and we knew he was bringing the cup to Cobourg on a certain day but we didn’t know where. Then I got one of the greatest phone calls I have ever received. Mr. Williams and some friends were playing shinny at the Cobourg arena. I phoned my wife to get her and the kids to the arena as fast as she could, Photographer Peg McCarthy and I head- ed to the arena and there, sitting on the players’ bench, was the Stanley Cup. Peg took several pictures of me with the Cup then I took some of her. I kissed it and hugged it. The only warning I got was when I went to pick it up, ‘only players and family members’ said the guy guarding it. As the Cup was picked up and carried out of the arena, my family arrived and I convinced the guard to let us get a family photo with it. That picture proudly hangs in my basement. But the other pictures are missing. I haven’t been able to find them in seven years. That’s a downside to digital images; they can go missing easily. Hopefully, one day I’ll find them but for now I’d settle with not embarrassing myself on the golf course. -- Managing editor Mike Johnston loves to see local athletes do great things. Mike Johnston Managing Editor Stanley Cup Durham must heed call for longer outfall pipe One of the greatest treasures in Durham Region is Lake Ontario and its amazing Waterfront Trail, accessible and inviting to every citizen in every municipality, from east to west and north to south. Unfortunately, as visitors to the shore- line know, the lake’s natural beauty is often marred by algae and accompanying smells, and beaches that are often closed to swim- mers. Some days, it doesn’t pay to think about where our drinking water comes from. The health of Lake Ontario was on the minds of several hundred residents who gathered at Ajax’s Rotary Park Saturday, joining a peaceful rally organized by the Town and the group Pickering Ajax Citizens Together to Protect Our Water (PACT POW). The issue is at the forefront due to expan- sion of the Duffin Creek sewage plant, which treats sewage from both Durham and York regions, spewing its effluent a kilometre off- shore. Jointly owned by the two regions, the plant will be expanded to discharge 630 mil- lion litres of treated water into the lake every day, to accommodate 400,000 new York resi- dents -- or 150,000 housing units -- by 2031. The Town of Ajax, long concerned with an algae problem at Rotary Park, is lobbying to get the plant’s outfall pipe extended to three kilometres offshore. As attendees at Saturday’s rally heard York Region is currently considering technology for a new plant on Lake Simcoe. PACT POW says that new technology will reduce phos- phorus levels by 97.5 per cent more than at the Duffin plant. Politicians from Ajax, Pickering, Oshawa and Clarington joined citizens and groups concerned with the plant, and called on York and Durham to invest in state-of-the-art infrastructure. But Durham and Ajax are at odds over the plans for the outfall pipe, the source of the algae problem and technology required. As Ajax Mayor Steve Parish has said, “The role of the Ministry of the Environment is key. They will make the decision. They’ll decide if the treatment is adequate or if it needs upgrading.” Because the health of the lake and its shorelines is much broader than an Ajax issue, the Province must ensure that the expansion of this plant includes every pos- sible benefit that modern technology will allow. We can’t afford to give the environ- ment and precious resources such as the lake anything less. 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 1 , 2 0 1 3 10 AP At the same time, Purdue Pharma, the manufacturer of OxyContin, changed the drug’s formula and reintroduced it as Oxy- Neo, a more tamper-resistant version of the drug which turns into a gel when crushed and added to water, making injecting it intravenously more difficult. “The criteria became much stricter on who would qualify for OxyNeo,” explained Stacey Simon, senior opiate case manager at Pinewood Centre. Beth Whalen, the co-ordinator of harm reduction services for the John Howard Society, including the Project X-Change needle exchange program, said opioid users have found ways to break the tam- per-resistance on OxyNeo, but it takes time and it’s still not the same as OxyCon- tin, so they’re switching to other prescrip- tion drugs such as Dilaudid, a hydromor- phone, and fentanyl. “Or heroin, which we never saw here before and now there’s an abundance of it,” she said. “It wasn’t here until OxyCon- tin was taken off the drug benefit plan.” A change is clear in the sharp increase in the number of needles distributed across Durham. In 2012, the John Howard Society dis- tributed 298,523 needles, down slightly from 2011. But this year, Ms. Whalen said Project X-Change had already distributed more than 200,000 needles by the end of June and she expected the number to hit more than 400,000 by the end of the year. “When OxyContin was taken off the shelf, most people in harm reduction pre- dicted most people wouldn’t be running for treatment or methadone programs and sadly we were right,” said Ms. Whalen. “Ninety per cent of our clients are addict- ed to some form of an opiate.” As people try new drugs, the risk of over- dose increases. “There’s definitely an increased risk of overdose and you’re seeing more cases of people accidentally overdosing on drugs they weren’t using before,” said Ms. Simon, who said she believes the changes have likely led to more hospital visits. For example, drug users will break down fentanyl time-release patches, but when they do so they can never be certain about the exact amount of drugs they’re shoot- ing or ingesting. The strength of illegal drugs like heroin var- ies by the batch. Cindy Kwok, co- ordinator for opiate case management services at Pinewood, explained that drug addiction brings numerous issues for people including financial, family and employment prob- lems as well as deteriorating health. Those were all issues for Mary, an Oshawa resident, who said that before she came into the world of drugs and addiction, she used to turn her nose up at addicts. But after leaving a bad marriage, she got involved with a partner who was suppos- edly a recovering addict. Once the couple began living together, it was clear Mary’s partner was still using. “I couldn’t get them to stop ... so I said lis- ten if you’re doing this I want to know what it’s about, why you can’t stop,” explained Mary. Then she made what she calls the biggest mistake of her life and allowed her partner to shoot her up with OxyContin. “I never dreamed that trying it once would cause the destruction that it did,” she said. “All of those stresses I was going through, with my divorce, my custody bat- tle, didn’t matter.” She quickly spent tens of thousands of dollars on narcotics to support both their habits including maxing out credit cards, selling family heirlooms at pawn shops and lying to friends and family to get money. “There came a point where I couldn’t even cover the rent and I didn’t care.” Although she never stole from her employer, her addic- tion caused her work performance to suf- fer and she was fired. After five months of using OxyContin and trying to quit on her own with no suc- cess, a friend took her to the local hos- pital and she went to Pinewood for detox. Mary understands well why it’s so hard for opiate addicts to quit. She describes withdrawal symptoms like a terrible flu including throwing up and sweating and being unable to control her kicking. “You get so sick you’ll do anything to get another pill to stop the sickness.” She also lost custody of her children. It wasn’t a straight road to recovery for her after detox; she battled alcohol and went through relapses. When OxyCon- tin was no longer available, she turned to drugs like Dilaudid. But Mary said she’s now been clean for nine months and feels like she’s turned a corner. Part of her treatment included using Subuxone which, like methadone, is an opiate substitute. Ms. Kwok explains that both methadone and Subuxone prevent the symptoms of withdrawal, but it doesn’t give people the euphoric feeling that using drugs does. Some clients will taper off opiate substi- tutes, like Mary did, while others will con- tinue to use it for a longer period, allowing them to resume their regular lives. “The main thing is looking at quality of life,” said Ms. Kwok. “There’s lots of people on methadone and Subuxone, it could be your grocery clerk or your bank teller or your next door neighbour,” said Ms. Simon. Ms. Whalen believes the key to help- ing people is making addiction services more readily available, easing the transi- tion from detox to in-patient treatment, for which many still must sit on a waiting list. To help more people, Pinewood has recently increased the number of opiate case managers to work closely with clients to deal with issues like housing, finances and mental health. But everyone agrees that individual users must be ready for help and ready for change. And even then it’s no easy road. Nine months clean, Mary has gotten her job back and now shares 50-50 custody of her children with her ex-husband. “It’s amazing how these drugs take a hold of you and they just don’t let go, it’s been really difficult,” she said. “My purpose is my children, my spouse, my job and my family. I have to keep that in sight. I’ve lost relationships I’ll never recover, but it’s important to remember this kind of addiction needs consistent support. “There’s really no boundary for this kind of addiction ... it could happen to any- body. Pre-addiction, I never realized that, I never believed it could happen to some- one like me.” RYAN PFEIFFER / METROLAND “You get so sick you’ll do anything to get another pill to stop the sickness.” From page 1 OSHAWA -- An Oshawa resident who has gone through treatment at the Pinewood Centre recently discussed her bat- tles with addic- tion and what it took for her to get clean.

Ms. McCarthy is again organizing the Ovarian Cancer Walk of Hope in Ajax, hoping to raise awareness and money to help battle the disease. She started the walk in September of 2010 “in memory of my sister Brenda and sister-in-law Judy. They both died of ovarian cancer at an early age.” Each year, about 2,500 women are diagnosed with the cancer and 1,700 die. Ms. McCarthy said ovarian cancer is one of the most fatal women’s cancers and is often not diagnosed soon enough. If detected late, the five-year survival rate is less than 30 per cent. Ms. McCarthy’s sister-in-law Judy Hamilton died at 43 and her sister Bren- da Ruest at 47. More than 17,000 women Canadian women are living with ovarian cancer each year. Ms. McCarthy and her sister regularly took part in an ovarian cancer walk in Toronto, but “when she got sick, it was too far for her to travel,” she said. Smaller walks were being organized around the country and Ms. McCarthy decided, “I wanted to bring the walk to Ajax.” Women living in Durham Region bat- tling ovarian cancer and their families and friends could take part in a walk in their own backyard, she said. “If it’s at home, more people can attend,” she added. “I can’t do anything for my sister or sister-in-law, but I can help women battling this disease.” Last year, with rainy weather, about 150 people took part and almost $34,000 was raised. The year before, more than 200 came out. There are more than 45 walks of hope held across Canada each year, with the aim of raising funds to support ovarian cancer education, awareness, support programs and research. This year’s walk is being held on Sat- urday, Sept. 7 at Rotary Park, on Lake Driveway West, in Ajax. Participants can do 2.5-kilometre or five-kilometre walks. There are also vir- tual walks for those who can’t take part on that day. Registration starts at 9 a.m. and the walk gets underway at 10 a.m. Registra- tion can also be done online. There are refreshments, a live band, face painting for children and a post- walk barbecue. Helping support the walk are the Ajax Lions Club and Enbridge Gas.

In a world of many possibilities why choose dance, and more speci cally, why choose DANCE INC.? Well, if you could create a wish list of what you would want your child to get out of your extracurricular investment what exactly would it entail? Would you be searching for some- thing your child can love and become passion- ate about, or an atmosphere where they can trust and feel safe to be themself and express their personality? Maybe you are looking for a strong support system for your child in an atmosphere where they can gain con dence and self-worth from their peers and instructors. What about an opportunity that will encourage your shy son or daughter to come out of their shell or an outlet for your rambunctious 5 year old to release some of their energy all while having a great time doing so? Are you look- ing for somewhere your teenager can go after school that they will look forward to and can get some great exercise participating in? Or maybe you are on the hunt for an activity that will teach your child discipline, time manage- ment, teamwork, all while helping them build their self-esteem. For all of these intentions and so many more, dance can be one of the best outlets for any child to grow healthfully, creatively and technically. All of the objec- tives you may have on your wish list for your child’s extracurricular activities can be found at DANCE INC., where we put the extra back into the ordinary. At DANCE INC., we realize we are working with your most precious asset, your children! For that, we are honoured to be entrusted with the artistic training of your child. It does not matter if they are 5 or 15, male or female, dance can be the exciting opportunity you are looking for. Dance is an excel- lent form of exercise and a way for your child to express themself artistically all while being taken care of in a safe and healthy environment. We are proud to o er many recreational and competitive dance classes for all ages and levels. Do you have a son that has expressed an interest in dance, well at DANCE INC. we are proud to tell you we have over 60 boys enrolled in classes each year. We make it cool for guys to dance! We o er classes like all Boyz Hip Hop taught by one of the studio’s Directors himself, Je Wong. “As a young hockey player, I was introduced to dance by my coach for stretching and condition- ing, and the rest is history,” says Je who co-owns DANCE INC. with his wife Breanne Wong. “Dance can be a way for boys to nd a creative and athletic outlet all in one. Teaching my boyz class is one of the best parts of my week! Encourag- ing males to explore dance in a masculine way is something I am proud of.” “Watching so many young dancers grow up within our studio is the most rewarding part of owing a studio,” says Breanne. “As we enter our 8th season of inspiring dancers, seeing graduated students move on to pursue their dreams, it is humbling to realize that we had a small hand in creating these con dent individuals.” It is often said that many children dance but do nothing with the skills they were taught after graduating and leaving their dance studio. However, “nothing” is de nitely not true! When preparing for their rst job interview they are often reminded how nervous they were before their rst dance recital and how they were able to get through it and gradually felt more con dent after every performance. When it’s time for them to move away from home for university they recall the rst time they stepped into their rst dance class feeling unsure of the new surroundings, but by the end of that class they had made several new friends and found comfort in the unfamiliar. Once a dancer always a dancer! The skills learnt, the memories made and the life lessons go far beyond the studio and is something they will take with them long after graduating. So, if you are searching for something for your child to be a part of, be a part of dance! Dance is so much more than steps and music. Dance can empower a child to believe in themselves and to be more than they ever imagined they could be. We welcome all families to come and explore dance with DANCE INC. Would you like more info?

Dur- ing this time, I have seen a change in the dance industry. A vast number of television programs featuring dance has popularized our art, bringing girls and boys of all ages to dance schools. While it can be wonderful for business, it has also caused a stir. Dancers and their parents often expect skills to be taught and mastered before the student is ready. Some inquire if they can register for a hip-hop class at 3 or want to do contempo- rary without taking a single ballet class. Prior to the onset of these reality televi- sion shows, students worked hard towards achieving the necessary skills for each grade, and upon completion were examined by standardized dance syllabi. Competition and festival work was an option for the advanced. Now there is a constant measuring stick in front of our chil- dren. One of my dancers set herself a goal; “I want to be the next Brooke Hyland” (from Dance Moms). Recently I taught a new jump to a group of students. The dancers exclaimed by say- ing, “Yeah!! It’s the Maddie jump” (also from Dance Moms). In fact, the jump has been around a lot longer than Maddie and it has a technical name which I then explained. I also often hear the question: “How come I can’t do triple turns? There’s this 10 year old girl on Youtube that can do 52 pirouettes”. I comment on her six hours a day of training, and her tap shoes. The dancers my students idolize are talented and well trained. The TV only shows glimpses of the actual training. Here is the JSOD Theory: Train properly and the skills will come nat- urally. The body will be able to accomplish the leaps, jumps and turns if it is technically sound and strong. There is a sequence to achieving these elements. Follow them in order without skipping a step and the skill will be accomplished. Jumping ahead is like building a house on a rickety foundation. At JSOD, we strive to implement a strong foundation for our dancers from a very young age. Our syllabi with The Paula Morgan Technique, Acrobatic Arts, BATD, BalletBarreNone and most recently the Angelina Ballerina Dance Academy TM Cur- riculum keep us on track. Our Acro program has 12 levels for students to work through, each clearly de ned with strength, ex- ibility, limbering, balancing and tumbling components to be achieved before moving on. Following this protocol, most of our students are ready for aerials the day we say “no hands today”. As a faculty, we continue to educate our- selves, always striving to nd new ways to reach our students. Paula Morgan’s Teach- er’s Certi cation program continually trains our instructors on the how and why to strengthen and develop a dancer’s body so the steps and skills come easily and safely. The BalletBarreNone program teaches how ballet should feel before executing the movement. The Angelina Ballerina Dance Academy curriculum is designed by world renowned master teachers and child de- velopment experts. As a result, our young- est dancers will receive a quality dance education in a caring and fun environment, all based on the beloved Angelina Ballerina character. Finally, our British Association of Teacher’s of Dancing (BATD) syllabus gives us a standard by which to develop the fundamentals necessary for technical excellence. To all the new dancers and their parents, I encourage and challenge you to build a strong foundation. . This will help you reach your goals and achieve your dreams.

OSHAWA (905)433-2319 Ride 4 United Way cycling through Durham Wheeling in support of local programs and services DURHAM -- Hundreds of cyclists will be taking to the road in Durham to support the United Way. The annual Ride 4 United Way will be held Sunday, Aug. 25, at 8 a.m., beginning and ending at Garnet B. Rickard Recreation Centre in Bowmanville. The ride is designed to appeal to a broad range of cyclists and includes four ride courses of 160 kilometres, 100k, 60k, a com- munity ride of 25k and two timed sections for more competitive riders that features cash prizes for the top times. “Our objective at the outset was to devel- op a ride which would certainly raise much- needed funds for the United Way, but also importantly promote the physical benefits of cycling and the enjoyment of the out- doors in Durham, and help to promote how great cycling can be right here in Durham,” said Robert Howard, campaign director for the United Way of Durham Region. “We have received tremendously positive feedback and I can’t help but think that we are achieving our stated objectives.” Lunch, showers and massages will be available for participants at the finish. For more information or to register visit www.ride4unitedway.com or call 905-436- 7377. Clerk flees knife-wielding bandit in Ajax AJAX -- A clerk fled from a knife-wielding bandit intent on robbing an Ajax cellphone shop Aug. 14. Durham police are trying to identify the suspect, who entered a Wind Mobile shop in the vicinity of Williamson and Westney roads at about 2:30 p.m., brandishing a knife and demanding cash. The employee backed away and fled through the front door unharmed while the would-be robber ran off towards Westney Road, police said. The suspect is a black man in his late teens or early 20s with a medium build. He wore dark clothing and concealed his face with a balaclava.

On Friday, Aug. 16 police received sev- eral calls reporting a group of about 20 men, armed with a knife and a crowbar, roaming the streets in the area of Whites Road and Strouds Lane. In two separate incidents teenage boys were swarmed and robbed by the group. The group of thieves was described as consisting of black males between the ages of 16 and 18. Officers responded to the area, but no arrests were made. Police are appeal- ing for any witnesses or other victims to come forward. Anyone with information is asked to call Det. McKinnon of the West Division Criminal Investigations Bureau at 1-888- 579-1520 ext. 2565. Police Girl groped at Ajax pool, suspect sought AJAX -- A teenager was groped by a man who approached her at an Ajax swim- ming pool, police said. Durham cops are now trying to iden- tify the man, who was at the McLean Community Centre on Magill Drive, on Aug. 2. The victim, a 13-year-old girl, said the middle-aged man approached her and talked to her, then touched her inap- propriately. The man is described as being of Middle Eastern descent, aged 50 to 60, of medi- um height with a slim build and a pot belly. He has black receding hair, a moustache, and what’s described as a “dot” on his forehead.

The Jr. A lacrosse club completed the sweep at the Minto Cup Canadian cham- pionships on Monday night in New West- minster, British Columbia, defeating the Coquitlam Adanac 12-7 to finish the round robin with a perfect 3-0 record. Earlier in the tournament the Warriors defeated the New Westminster Salmonbel- lies 11-5 and the Okotoks Raiders 18-4. The Warriors faced their stiffest test of the tournament so far on Monday against the British Columbia league champi- ons from Coquit- lam, and actu- ally trailed 3-1 just past the midway mark of the open- ing period. But four in a row to close out the period and three more in less than two minutes to start the second quickly turned that deficit into an 8-3 lead that they main- tained throughout the rest of the game. Curtis Knight had a big night, scoring four times and adding three assists, while Emerson Clark and Reilly O’Connor post- ed two goals each. Michael MacDonald, Darryl Robertson, Ryan Keenan and Tyler Gilligan had one goal each. Graeme Hos- sack chipped in with three assists. The perfect record gives the Warriors a couple of days off before the best-of-five final begins on Thursday. Their opponent in that final series was to be determined on Tuesday night in a rematch of the British Columbia league final, as the champions from Coquitlam were to face the host New Westminster. The Alberta champion Oko- toks Raiders were winless in three starts and eliminated. Wednesday is an off day at the tourna- ment. The best-of-five will run consecutive- ly for five days beginning Thursday and ending Monday, if the final two games are need. All start times for the final games are 11 p.m. Eastern. Diedrick living and learning on and off the diamond Outfielder joins Western Kentucky University for next two years BRAD KELLY bkelly@durhamregion.com BOWLING GREEN, KENTUCKY -- Phil Diedrick is living and learning about life, and that extends far beyond the classroom and baseball diamond as he navigates his way through university. The Ajax resident and Pickering High School graduate is settled away in Bowl- ing Green, Kentucky, where in just a cou- ple of weeks, he will begin classes at West- ern Kentucky University, where he will be a member of the Hilltoppers baseball team for the next two years. It’s a long way from where he initial- ly started, at Bossier Parish Communi- ty College in Louisiana after graduating from high school. Things didn’t work out, and after just one semester, he realized it wasn’t going to be a good situation and returned home. He didn’t miss a beat or get discouraged, and luckily, he was able to catch on with Connors State College in Oklahoma, enrolling there in the fall of 2011. “It was a great experience. I actually wish in hindsight that I would have went (to Connors State) straight out of high school,” says Diedrick, who turns 21 in September. “But you live and learn. You have to make decisions that force you to grow up and learn things about life and people. “I’m not looking at (attending Bossier) as a bad experience. It actually taught me a lot of things about making decisions and who to trust as I get older.” This past season, Connors State quali- fied for the junior college World Series in Colorado, winning their first game, but losing the next two to get eliminated in the double-knockout format. Diedrick was used to playing in big games and venues, having represented Canada at the junior world championships, but this experience differed slightly. “This was a different kind of experience because instead of playing for your coun- try, you’re playing for your school. There’s a real pride in playing for something that means so much to you.” During a workout session in front of pro scouts and university recruiters held at Connors State, Diedrick impressed enough to get a few offers to move on to the next level. After careful consideration, he felt his next two years would be best spent at Division-I Western Kentucky. “I just found Western was the best place and the best opportunity for me to further my own education and baseball,” says the sociology major, who will patrol the out- field once the baseball season kicks in. With two years of NCAA eligibility remaining, Diedrick is still eyeing a pro- fessional career, one he turned down after being drafted in the 45th round in 2010 by the Toronto Blue Jays. “That’s my ultimate goal to get drafted again, hopefully by the Toronto Blue Jays again,” he says of his desire to be a Canadi- an on Canada’s team. “If not, I’d be ecstatic for whatever organization drafts me.” KENTUCKY -- Ajax’s Phil Diedrick, a draft pick of the Toronto Blue Jays in 2010, will be playing the next two seasons of Division-I NCAA baseball with the University of Western Kentucky. 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 1 , 2 0 1 3 28 AP September 28 -29,2013 International Centre,Hall 6 •6900 Airport Rd.,Mississauga FREE PARKING www.maturityandtravelshow.com A DIVISION OF FEFEFEFEATATATAT URURURURESESESESFEEATATAAURURESES ••••••CrCrCrCruiuiuiuseseseseCrCrCruiuiuuisesese •••••TrTrTrTTravavavavelelelelel IInsnsnsnsnsururururrananananancecececeTrTrTrTravavavavelelelelIIIInsnsnsnsururururanananancececece ••••DeDeDeststininatataioionsnsDeDetstiinatataioionsns •••••VaVaVaacacacatititiononon RRRenenentatatatalslsVaVacacatitiononRenentatalsl •••••TrTrTrravavavavelelelleleler’r’r’r sss MaMaMa krkrketetetplplplacacaeeTrTravavelelleler’r’ss MaMarkrketetplpacaee ••••HeHeHalalaththhHeHealalthth ••••••••EnEnEnnEnEnEEEnEEEEEnEnEEEEEEnnEnEnnnnEnnnEnEnnEEEnEEnnnnnnEEEEnnnnnEEEnnnnnnnnntettetetettetttttttttttttetteeeetteeerttrtrtrtrtrrtrrtrrtrrtrtttaiaaiaiaiiaiiiaiiiiiiinmnmnmnmnnmmnnmnmmnmnmnnmmnmnnmmnmnmnmmnmmmmnmnnnnmnmmmmnmmmnmnmmmnnnnnnmmmmnnmmmnnnnnmmmnnnnmmmnnmnnnmmmmnnnnnmnmmnnmmmmmmmenennennnneeneeeeneeeeennneennennenettttttttttttttttttEnEEnEnEnEEEEEnEnEnnEnEnEnnEEEnnnnEnEEnnEnEnEnnEnEnEnEnnnnEnEnnEnnEnEEnnnnEEnnnnntetetetetettetettettetetteeteeeeetteeeeeeteeeeeertrtrtrtrtrtrtrtttaiaiaiiiiiaiiiaiiiiiiiaaiiiiiaaiaaiiinmnmmnnmnmnmnmnmmnnmnmnmnmmnmnmnmnmnmmnnmnmmnnmnmnmnmnmmmnnnmnmnmnmmmnnmnmnmnnnnmmnmnnnnmnmnmnmnnnmmmmnmnmmmmnmmeneneneneeeeeeneeeeeeeeeeeeeeenneennnneeennnnnnettttttttttttttt •••••••••••••••••••••••FFFiFFFiFFFiFFiFFiFFFiiFFFiiiFFiFFFFFFFFFFFnnananaaanananananaanannaanannanaaannnanaananananaaanannnaaannncncncnnncncncncncncncncnncncncnccncncncnccncnnnnnnncncccccceeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeFiFiFiFiFiFiFiFiFiFFiFFFiiiFiFiinnananananaananaannanaananananananaaanannanaanaaannaaaaancncnccncncnncnnncncncncncncnnccncncncnnccnncncnnnccncnceeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee ••••••••••••••••••••••LiLiLiLLLLLiLiLiLLiLLLLiLiLLLLiiLiLLLLLiLiLLLLiiffefefefeefeefeffeefefeeffeeffefeefeeffefffefestststsststststststststststssttstststtssststyylyylyyyyylylylylyylylylyylylylyylyylyylyyylyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeLLiLiLLiLiLiLLiLLiLLLiLiiiiLiLLiiLifefefefefeffeefefefefeeffefeefeefffestststststststststsststststssstsyylylylylylyylylylylylyyllylylyylyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee ++++++++++mmmmmmmmmmanananananannnaaannay,y,y,y,y,yy,yyy,y,yy,mmmmmmmmmananananannananayyyyyyyyyyyyy momomomomomomomorererererererrerree+++++mmmmmananannanaany,y,y,y,y,mmmmmmanannnanayyyyyy momomorereeerere Saturday:10am-6pm •Sunday:10am-5pm Interested in Exhibiting?

The tournament hosted both boys’ and girls’ teams who played on the new international grade, water- based artificial turf at the Cassie Campbell Commu- nity Centre in Brampton. The girls’ division includ- ed two teams from Ontario, two teams from British Columbia as well as one team each from Alberta and PEI. Ontario rendered all other teams scoreless the entire tournament starting with a defeat of PEI 6-0 and then winning subsequent games against the second Ontario team 4-0, Alberta 10-0 and then a challenging game against BC Blue 1-0. Ontario was scheduled to see BC White in the final game of the tournament but the game was cancelled after 10 minutes of play due to inclement weather. The game was not rescheduled since the two undefeat- ed teams had already secured their place at the gold medal game the following day. In the championship game, Ontario controlled the majority of play throughout the match. Both goals came from well-executed short corners: one in the first half, and another in the second half. The entire team came together and worked hard both offen- sively and defensively along with solid goaltending against the tougher BC teams to capture the title. The two girls, who were selected to Team Ontar- io in June, have won gold medals in previous years. Last summer, Gerlings, 16, was part of the U16 GTA field hockey team that won gold at the 2012 Ontario Summer Games. In 2011, Slavin, 15, was a member of the Ajax U14 AA ringette team that won provincial gold to become Team Ontario, then went on to win gold again at the Eastern Canadian Ringette Cham- pionships in PEI. Both girls play varsity field hockey for Pickering High School, which has won LOSSA two of the last three years with coach Kelly Sadowski. They are also part of the Toronto Titans Field Hockey Club that practises in Scarborough and playing other clubs and local tournaments throughout the summer. The Trojans high school coach was there to catch one of the games. “It’s great to see how well the two girls are doing in a sport they are both relatively new to. Their progress will really help our team to defend our LOSSA title next year and hopefully get us a medal at OFSAA,” said Sadowski.

SAVE TIME, SAVE MONEY View Flyers/Coupons At Redmen reach Major Series final WHITBY -- There were any number of rea- sons for people to believe that the Brooklin Redmen were playing their last game of the season Sunday night. It was Game 7 of the Ontario semifinal, in Peterborough against the Lakers, who just happen to be the defending Mann Cup champions, played in front of a capacity crowd at the Memorial Centre. Obviously, among the non-believers, were the players and coaching staff of the Redmen. The Redmen managed to pull off the upset, coming up with a 13-8 victory to win the best-of-seven series four games to three, advancing to the Major Series League final against Six Nations with a trip out west to compete for the Mann Cup on the line. Sunday’s seventh and deciding game lived up to the billing, with the Redmen leading throughout, carrying an 8-5 advan- tage into the third period. But when Peter- borough rallied with three in a row to tie it at 8-8 within the first five minutes of the final period, you would have been hard pressed to find anyone who would have given the Redmen a shot. Except of course, the players and staff. “About half way through the season we were trying to teach them to win and not get excited when the chips are down,” said GM/head coach Wayne Colley of the whole process. “At 8-8 our guys never panicked. They were nonchalant, saying ‘Just settle down’.” Game one against Six Nations was Tues- day in Six Nations (after our print dead- line), with the Redmen hosting Game 2 tonight at the Iroquois Park Sports Centre. 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 1 , 2 0 1 3 30 AP Callaway Golf Blowout!
