There are currently no plans to provide an alternate east-west route through the village during construction. JASON LIEBREGTS / METROLAND Whitevale residents ask for alternate route across Duffins Creek during bridge replacement MOYA DILLON mdillon@durhamregion.com WHITEVALE -- For six months Nicole Brewster will be cut off from her business at the west end of Whitevale when the hamlet’s bridge, the only east-west con- nection through town, is replaced. The bridge work, which everyone agrees is much needed, is scheduled to take place in early 2014 and includes demolition of the current bridge, which has been reduced to a single lane since it was damaged during a 2008 flood, and the construction of a new bridge. “Without the bridge the shortest route between east and west Whitevale is 8.1 kilometres, one way,” said Rob Quig, a resident and member of the hamlet’s bridge committee, which has been work- ing with City staff to ensure the new bridge design blends with the town’s heritage nature, during a council meet- ing on Sept. 9. “During this construction period resi- dents will be unable to walk from the west side of town to the east to retrieve their mail, the village’s Community Cen- tre will be cut off from east-end resi- dents and community events around the church will be cut off from west-end resi- dents. Small businesses, often those just getting started, will be cut off from the Seaton Trail and much of the village’s foot access.” See BRIDGE page 4 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 • Se p t e m b e r 1 2 , 2 0 1 3 2 AP 900 Champlain Ave., Oshawa 905-723-4561 Hours: Mon. -We d. 10-6, Thurs.• Fri. 10-9, Sat. 10-6, Sun.11-5 *Credit equal to the value of the HST.

FREE with OHIP Durham Doctor House Call Service Pickering Village school remembered with plaque Former students, teachers attend unveiling ceremony Keith GilliGan kgilligan@durhamregion.com AJAX -- It was a dreary, rainy day, but doz- ens of former students and teachers turned out Saturday to unveil a plaque to commem- orate the Pickering Village Public School SS #4 West. Malcolm MacTaggart, chairman of the Ajax Heritage Advisory Committee, noted it was the 125th anniversary of the school opening. The school, built in 1888, was at the north- east corner of Church Street and Sherwood Road East in Pickering Village. “It was huge for its time. It could accom- modate 200 students and cost the exorbi- tant amount of $5,000,” he said, adding that translates into $150,000 in today’s dollars. “The trustees knew how to get a bang for its buck.” Bill Guest was a teacher from Septem- ber 1949 to June 1952, teaching a combined Grade 5 and 6 class. “What I remember is when I heard we had a continuation school (now called high school), we had a basement room and I spent a whole day in my good clothes sweep- ing. It was dusty,” Mr. Guest said. After leaving the school, he taught for 35 years in Scarborough, retiring in 1986. The Pickering Village school was his first teaching job and he was 21 when he started. He was recruited to come to the school because “they were desperate for teachers. The population was growing,” Mr. Guest said. The continuation school opened in 1928 and lasted until 1951, when Pickering Dis- trict High School opened just up the street from the public school. The public school “closed in 1956 after meeting our needs for 75 years. The build- ing was torn down in 1964,” Mr. MacTaggart stated. Mayor Steve Parish noted his father Bill was hired to teach at the new Pickering Dis- trict High School following an interview at the public school. “The Town of Ajax takes a great deal of pride in the preservation of historical build- ings,” he said, pointing to the former St. Fran- cis Church south of the school on Church Street. “If (the current) council was around in 1960, this school would be preserved on this site. I want to thank you for taking the time in dreary weather to come out and celebrate this,” Mayor Parish added. Helen Linton attended the school from Grade 1 to 8. “I attended Grade 9 here as well before they closed the continuation school. “I remember the great camaraderie we had among the staff and students. The teachers were wonderful friends as well as teachers,” Ms. Linton said. “They taught us and guided us.” Don Shortreed went to the school starting in 1946, going from Grade 1 to 8. “The main thing is Roy Doble was the principal of the continuation school. He was a great guy,” Mr. Shortreed said. Jim Pyette, one of the members of the committee that had the plaque erected, was amazed at the turnout. “Oh my God, I had no idea there would be near this many. I didn’t expect that many would respond,” Mr. Pyette stated, adding people came from as far away as Alberta and North Carolina. “It’s pretty impressive these people would think enough of this to come,” Mr. Pyette said. AJAX -- William Guest, a former teacher at Pickering Village Public School SS#4 West, had his photo taken at the Sept. 7 unveiling of a plaque to mark the former site of the school that operated from 1888 to 1956.

Ms. Brewster, who lives on the east side of the bridge, said demolition of the bridge could be especially tough for her business, the Log Cabin Yardage quilting store, which is located on the west side of the bridge. “We’ve been an online business for about three years but we’ve only been open at this location since May, so we’re still getting established,” she explained. “Right now I walk about four minutes to work every morning, so my commute will definitely be longer, but I also worry about having to educate my clients on new direc- tions to the store. A lot of my clientele is female and older, so they’re not going to walk more than they have to. I have a world- class quilter coming in October to speak, so that’s a real concern because we’re just gaining popularity. There’s an opportunity to build a real arts business in Whitevale, but this could impact that.” While Lloyd Thomas, president of the Whitevale and District Residents Associa- tion, was confident a bridge could be com- pleted “very quickly,” Pickering CAO Tony Prevedel dashed councillors hopes for the project. “The existing bridge is on borrowed time, it’s investigated weekly by staff and monthly by our structural engineer, and it may very well have to be closed before we recon- struct it next year,” he explained. “The issue we’ve heard tonight about wanting to build a pedestrian bridge before demolition, we can’t have that. Just the tim- ing, the environmental assessment and approvals that would be required mean the Whitevale bridge would already be built before a pedestrian bridge could even be considered.” Coun. Bill McLean amended an item before council seeking approval for the new bridge’s heritage permit application to include direction to staff to investigate the feasibility of a pedestrian bridge and report back to council. While council supported the motion, some expressed disappointment that an alternate route had not already been con- sidered. “If this is the only east-west connection for the community and it’s going to be shut down, why was the idea of an alternate con- nection during construction not consid- ered,” asked Coun. Jennifer O’Connell, who was told it was normal practice not to con- struct an alternate for a six-month project. “If this is normal practice I have very seri- ous concerns,” she continued. “I can’t think of another place in Pickering that physically only has one road in and out that has had that access restricted.” Other councillors supported the idea of a pedestrian bridge, but only on the condi- tion it not impact construction of the new bridge, noting safety concerns over any delay in the project. 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 • Se p t e m b e r 1 2 , 2 0 1 3 4 P The Regional Municipality of Yo rk NOTICE OF CONSTRUCTION Roundabout Construction Yo rk Durham Line at Durham Road 5 The Regional Municipality of Yo rk will start construction on the future traffic roundabout located at the intersection of Yo rk Durham Line at Durham Regional Road 5.

What they got was a whole new family. On Saturday, Aug. 31 residents of the court, at least nine of whom moved in as soon as construction finished 25 years ago, gathered to mark the court’s anni- versary, and enjoy another one of the many street parties and get-togethers the court has been host to over the years. “It’s pretty amazing, we’ve had wed- dings, funerals, birthdays, graduations, you name it,” said resident Lyn Dwyer. “We get tons of calls from real estate agents, but you can’t pay us enough to move out of this court.” The Dwyers moved to the area from Don Mills in 1988, looking for more prop- erty at a better price. “There you got a postage stamp for a lot of money, with no backyard and no court, here the kids could just go play in the yard or out in the court,” Ms. Dwyer said. “It was the neighbours that really made us fall in love with this place. We real- ly lucked out, it’s like a family. We’re all here for each other, all our kids went to school together. We’re not moving any- where because where else are you going to find this kind of community?” “We have so many memories on this court, and so many more to come,” said Irene Angelopoulos, who has lived next door to the Dwyers since their hous- es were built, pointing to the children’s excitement when snowplows would pile all the snow into the middle of the court, or the annual street parties they used to throw. Residents have certainly had their share of good times on the court. The fun ranges from Friday men’s nights, which include poker and barbecue and invari- ably lead to a meat-burning contest around the grill, to organized sports and more. “You talk to people on other streets where they know their neighbours on either side and across the street, here we know everyone,” said Kevin Dwyer, Lyn’s husband. Nick Angelopoulos is quick to nomi- nate neighbour Orlando Mourao as “the best neighbour ever,” recalling how he once gave him a car for just the cost of the ownership transfer when he found out Mr. Angelopoulos’s vehicle had died. “He said, ‘we’re not using this car, why don’t you give it a try and see how you like it’, so a year later I said how much do you want for it? And he just said, ‘it’s yours.’” Mr. Angelopoulos recalls, sling- ing an arm around Mr. Mourao. “People help each other,” neighbour Bill Weston explains. “The people across the street have more cars than can fit in their driveway so they kept getting tickets so I let them park in my driveway. That’s just what we do.” There are other benefits to being friends with all your neighbours, too. “For the street parties it’s great because when you invite all your neighbours you can stay up as late as you want,” Mr. Dwyer said, grinning. “I think the record is 4 a.m.,” Ms. Dwyer added. PICKERING -- The residents of Boyne Court held a street party celebrating 25 years in the neighbourhood on Aug. 31. Jason liebregts / MetrolanD Government reaches out to Pickering business community Minister Gary Goodyear asks for advice on needs for economic growth Moya Dillon mdillon@durhamregion.com PICKERING -- Businesses in Pickering had a chance to voice their needs for prosper- ing long into the future, calling for more, and better, transportation and skills develop- ment. On Sept. 3 MP Corneliu Chisu welcomed Gary Goodyear, Minister of State for the Fed- eral Economic Development Agency for Southern Ontario (FedDev), to Pickering to speak to local business leaders about what’s needed in the community for businesses to grow and prosper long-term. “It’s important for me to get out and meet with people such as yourselves to see what’s happening in your community and what we as a government need to do to make your life better,” he said to the gathered participants, including representatives from businesses such as Purdue Pharma, and educational institutions such as UOIT. “During an economic downturn it takes hard work, time and financial investments to turn things around. It takes research, collab- oration, partnerships and the engagement of dynamic civic leaders with vision, such as yourselves.” Mr. Goodyear pointed to partnerships as key to continuing Canada’s economic growth, which has seen it post the strongest recovery among G8 nations since the 2009 economic downturn. “Economic prosperity is not usually found anymore in a single player or a single fix, more often it’s the result of organizational synergies,” he explained. “FedDev will continue to build strong part- nerships of collaboration, because I believe that’s how we’re going to get there faster. It’s not about competing against each other, but working together as a team to compete against the world.” Among the issues discussed at the round- table were suggestions for how the gov- ernment should shape a new $200 million advanced manufacturing fund, and what businesses need in order to grow and pros- per and remain competitive long-term, rath- er than just aiming for short-term job cre- ation. “I think it was a very productive meeting, we all expressed gratitude to the minister for the initiative he’s undertaken to hear first- hand not just from municipalities but from the broader business base and education sector,” said Pickering Mayor Dave Ryan, noting transportation was a popular topic during the roundtable, as well as the need for greater skilled labour to close the skills gap. “Businesses are saying we need to develop broader skills, or specific skills, but it always comes back to how do you develop those skills? You invest in education.” He also supported the emphasis on trans- portation. For more information visit www.fedde- vontario.gc.ca.

But while the policy shift clears the way for police services to expand use of shock- delivering conducted energy weapons (CEWs), it remains to be seen to what extent they’ll be employed in Durham. Ontario Community Safety Minister Madeleine Meilleur unveiled new guide- lines Tuesday. The announcement comes a month after the fatal shooting of teenag- er Sammy Yatim by Toronto police in late July. The policy shift eases restrictions on the use of Tasers, which previously were dis- tributed only to police supervisors and specialists such as tactical unit officers. Durham police Chief Mike Ewles praised the move, describing CEWs as a “non- lethal alternative” for cops faced with dan- gerous situations. “There’s no question that in my mind they have saved lives,” Chief Ewles said in a statement. “In many cases just pulling the device out of the holster ends the standoff,” he added. “The device isn’t even fired.” In fact, while the CEW has been part of the police arsenal for several years, they are deployed fairly rarely by cops in Dur- ham, said police spokesman Dave Selby. He supplied statistics that show Durham cops deployed stun guns 34 times in 2012, while in 2011 there were 23 deployments, and 30 in 2010. That’s a relatively low rate, given that there are on average about 100,000 calls for service a year, he said. And in about a third of the incidents in which CEWs are deployed they are not fired, he said. “Currently we hardly ever use them,” Mr. Selby said. “Ballpark we have 100,000 calls a year and we deploy CEWs about 30 times a year.” Front-line officers are trained to employ a number of tactics, ranging from verbal commands to uses of force, to defuse vola- tile situations, he said. “A huge part of that training is de-esca- lating using verbal commands,” Mr. Selby said. And while the Province has cleared the way for expanded CEW use that doesn’t mean every cop in Durham will imme- diately be armed with them, the chief said. Among the considerations moving forward are costs, both of obtaining the devices and training officers in their use. “I look forward to working with our police services board on what expansion of CEWs might look like, the costs involved and the impact on our training programs,” Chief Ewles said.

And it’s in the works as parents and the local school boards were put between a rock and a hard place when the Region earlier this year chose to drastically increase the amount high school students must pay in order to ride Durham Region Transit vehicles. Durham Region council, after hearing from Durham Finance Commissioner Jim Clapp that busing high school students “is a major cost to the taxpayer,” in February approved a hike in the restricted bulk bus pass pricing for Durham school boards from $49.50 to $74 per pass, an increase of almost 50 per cent. The boards balked at the increase, opting to transport high school students on yellow school buses. However with the cancellation of the restricted bus pass, students and families opting to purchase an unlimited bus pass now have to shell out $86.50 per month. As Ajax mother Cynthia Hawkins point- ed out, that’s hard on families, especially if they have two high school students as over 10 months that amounts to $1,730. And the rub is that not every student qualifies for school board busing. For pub- lic school students, they must live more than four kilometres from their school to receive busing. Ajax Councillor Shaun Collier has said the increase was “too much, too fast” and we agree. School board efforts to work with the Region to lower the increase came to naught, leaving them no choice. And that left students with a much more expensive bus pass. The regional bus pass increase wasn’t big, but huge. It could at least have been phased in and, while there are budget pressures at the Region, politicians opted to force the boards’ hands so as to elimi- nate the restricted bulk pass rate. Besides, there are other areas in the bud- get where savings could have been found, starting with the whopping police budget. Do Durham cops need a $73 million Cen- tre for Investigative Excellence in Whitby? Instead, parents and students are taking a big hit to save the taxpayer money? Ironic isn’t it? It reminds us of the old argument that seniors, for example, shouldn’t pay taxes to support education because they have no kids in the system. But as we all know, our tax system isn’t specific to what ser- vices we use. The Region’s move is costing students and parents and they are justified in seek- ing a less-expensive fix. --- --- Ajax Pickering News Advertiser Marin’s conduct questionable too To the editor: Re: ‘Shameful conduct by Durham Region Police employee’, editorial opinion, dur- hamregion.com, Aug. 28, 2013. I take exception to the headline; it should have read: ‘Shameful conduct by DRPS employee and Ontario Ombuds- man Andre Marin’. You were correct in criticizing the DRPS employee of the rant. Police Chief Mike Elwes was correct in his view of the sit- uation. Detective Constable Scott Den- nis should receive an apology from Mr. Marin. Your organization and many oth- ers dropped the ball in not questioning the validity of Mr. Marin’s investigation of the situation. Mr. Marin and his organization are supposed to be crack investigators. But Mr. Marin had an “oops moment” when he opened his mouth and inserted both feet. This was because a thorough inves- tigation had not been completed by him or his organization. Their investigators, Mr. Marin included, should have real- ized that Criminal Code charges were not possible, but Ontario Police Act charges and DRPS charges are possible, probable and forthcoming. The taxpayers of Durham Region must hold the DRPS accountable for the offi- cer’s conduct. That said, the Province of Ontario must hold Mr. Marin accountable for his actions. But then, who does Mr. Marin answer to? John Beswick Whitby I can always change my vote To the editor: When I became a Bell phone custom- er and a Conservative voter, I paid $20 a month for my phone service, which included personal service from operators and a telephone set. Now with all the competing land phone providers and cellphones and Internet phones vying for my business, I pay over $50 per month for my basic home phone service from Bell with no extras. It just boggles my mind that the prime minister and federal government are still telling me about how more competition is going to improve things for the public. I have been a Bell customer and Con- servative supporter for 50 years and I can’t do without my telephone but I can surely change my vote. Officials may be thinking they have the public support for their wrong-mind- ed policy on phone service but I haven’t heard anyone outside of government who agrees.

ASK THE PODISTRIST: I began feeling pain in my heel and arch approximately 1 year ago. It has gotten progressively worse in the past 3 months. The pain is most intense when I first get out of bed in the morning, or when I first stand on up. It then seems to ease somewhat. It feels like a bruise on the inside of my heel right where the arch begins. What might this be and how can I treat it? It sounds as if you are describing a condition known as PLANTAR FASCITIS, an inflammation of the plantar fascia, a thick, fibrous, connective tissue running from the inside of the heel to the toes. It is responsible for maintaining the arch of the foot. Initially the onset of symptoms are gradual and of low intensity but they soon progress to a sharp, persistent pain. The pain is worse when first arising in the morning or at the beginning of an activity. It will then lessen after a few minutes of walking but will recur after a rest or with prolonged movement. Although the symptoms are in the heel, the heel is not the problem. PLANTAR FASCITIS occurs as a result of excessive pronation and a flattening of the arch. This causes the foot to lengthen, leading this inflexible fascia to pull away from the heel bone. The end fibers will then develop some micro tears, Health & Wellness ADVERTISING FEATURE MORNING HEEL PAIN CAN SPOIL YOUR ENTIRE DAY swelling and inflammation. Some of the predisposing factors leading to PLANTAR FASCITIS are: 1) A flattening of the arch (lengthening of the foot) 2) Increased pronation 3) High arched rigid feet 4) Inappropriate shoes 5) Toe or hill running 6) Soft terrain running (for example jogging on the beach) 7) Increase age or weight Health & WellnessADVERTISING FEATURE 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 • Se p t e m b e r 1 2 , 2 0 1 3 11 AP • PICKERING - Pickering Town Centre Next to Sears (905) 420-0271 • AJAX - 1 Westney Rd at Hwy #2 (905) 686-2182 Discover Plenty to Do at Amica at Whitby What’s your pleasure?A calendar full of entertainment,cultural and local activities for you to choose from is just one of the many pleasures of living at our all-inclusive rental retirement community.Our full time Wellness & Vitality™Coordinators are much like cruise ship directors,planning and arranging activities that appeal to a wide variety of tastes.Yet if heading out to your favourite shopping spot or visiting friends is in your plans, you can do that too!

Sabrina byrneS / metroland See a video of the budgies on Facebook facebook.com/NewsDurhamKristensKritters Raptors fill skies on trip to winter homes It’s an amazing world we live in. Take birds, and their ability to fly. Paleontologists have figured out that they’re living dinosaurs, direct descendants of a few pterodactyl types that survived that big asteroid colli- sion on the Yucatan 66 million years ago. From the fossil records, they’ve determined birds evolved from some small theropods during the Jurassic Age. Like their ancestors, the 9,900 species of birds living today brood eggs, have light, air-filled bones, including a wishbone, and grow feathers. So they’ve been around a lot longer than we mammals have. And spreading their feathery arms and fingers, they can lift up off the earth and move about the planet at whim, taking long journeys with the chang- ing seasons. Equally awesome is that they know where to go, even juveniles that have never left home before! In my books, that’s reason enough to get excited whenever I see a bird migrating by. Especially big raptors, which pass overhead in broad daylight, often in plain sight of any- one who bothers to look up. For the next three months, whenever the winds are from the north/northwest, hawks could be flying. The great thing about the topography of Durham Region is that tens of thousands of them funnel westward along a few main routes: the shore of Lake Ontario, and the old Lake Iroquois shoreline, an east-west ridge south of Hwy. 7. Hang out there long enough and you’re sure to see eagles soar- ing, their wide wings spread, or kettles of ele- gant V-winged turkey vultures gliding in cir- cles on an updraft. Or the best sighting of all: great flocks of broad-winged hawks all moving out of Can- ada at once, traveling en masse from their northern forests down through Mexico to South America, a journey of 7,000 kilome- tres. These long-distance fliers usually pass through Durham skies in mid-September, so numbers should reach their peak any day now, for anyone who cares to watch for them. Two great places to do that are from the viewing tower at the northeast corner of Heber Down Conservation Area south of Brooklin, and at the south platform on the west side of Cranberry Marsh in south Whitby. Not only do both spots have a sweeping view of the sky, and any approach- ing hawks, but bird experts regularly gather to count them, and are glad to help novices identify species. Raptors might be flying over the Thickson’s Woods Nature Reserve in south Whitby dur- ing the 12th annual Birds, Beavers and But- terflies Festival on Saturday, Sept. 14 -- an added attraction in an already amazing day of nature immersion that’s fun for the whole family. Wildlife and magic shows, guided tours, a silent auction, bake sale and lots more go on from 9 a.m. to 3:30 p.m., so go early and stay late!

Durham outdoors writer Margaret Carney has more than 3,000 species on her life list of birds, seen in far-flung corners of the planet. margaret Carney The Great Outdoors Feline virus is manageable At the Humane Society of Durham Region, Sherwood, a lovable black cat with a great big head and rather large paws, gets lots of love from humans, but you won’t find him cuddling or playing with the other cats at the shelter. Sherwood is the lone cat at the Durham Humane Society with feline immunode- ficiency virus, which compromises a cat’s ability to fight infection, so they’re more susceptible to secondary diseases than cats that are not infected. The Humane Society rescued Sherwood after he was hit by a car about a year ago. “He’s a wonderful boy,” said Cindy Ben- nett, animal care committee member. “He’s a very lovable cat. He’s just got to be the only cat or go to another home with FIV cats.” Due to his situation, Sherwood has his very own room. However, FIV doesn’t mean he has to be alone his whole life; he cannot spread the virus to dogs or humans. Some people choose to adopt multiple FIV-positive cats so they can live with other felines. Most experts sug- gest that cats with FIV don’t live with non- infected cats; the virus can be transmitted to other cats through deep bite wounds. Another, less common mode of transmis- sion is from an FIV-infected mother cat to her kittens. So make sure your FIV-positive cat is spayed or neutered. While managing a cat with FIV does require some extra care, cats with the virus can live good lives. “He’s actually in very good shape,” Cindy said of Sherwood. “From what I under- stand, he can live a long, happy life.” According to the Second Chance Wild- life Sanctuary in Pickering, FIV-positive cats should receive wellness exams at least twice a year. Blood and urine screening should be done at these visits. Since there is no antiviral treatment for FIV, talk to your vet about a proper man- agement plan. Properly managing the dis- ease with nutritional support, consistent veterinary care and immediate treatment of secondary infections can help your cat stay healthy longer. Early intervention and aggressive treatment of secondary illness- es are crucial. To lower your FIV-positive cat’s risk of contracting other diseases and to prevent the spread of FIV to other cats, it’s impor- tant to keep your cat indoors at all times. Second Chance says an FIV vaccine exists, but the effectiveness of the vaccine is poorly supported by current research, and many clinics do not use it. Many times, symptoms don’t occur for years after infection. According to the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, signs of FIV include: enlarged lymph nodes; fever; weight loss; disheveled coat; abnormal appearance or inflammation of the eye; wounds that don’t heal; discharge from eyes or nose; and behaviour change. If you notice these, it’s important to have your cat checked by a vet. Fore more symptoms, visit aspca.org/ pet-care/cat-care/feline-immunodefi- ciency-virus-fiv. If your FIV-positive cat goes untreated, the secondary infections can progress to life-threatening conditions. Cats with FIV can develop various forms of cancer, blood diseases or kidney failure, which will ulti- mately claim the cat’s life. So do not ignore the signs and make sure to get your cat checked out regularly -- it’s quite possible they’ll live a long, healthy and happy life. The Durham Humane Society has recently adjusted its cat adoption fees, and taking Sherwood home is only $50 under the new policy. The new costs are: cats two months to five years: $150; cats five to 10 years: $100; cats 10 years and older: $50; and cats with special needs: $50. Plus, adopt a second cat at the same time for no additional cost. Fees include spay/neuter for cats older than six months.

If he receives proper care, he can live a long happy life. For more information, contact the Humane Society of Durham Region at 905-665-7430.

The band is celebrating its 150 anni- versary this year. And Sept. 17 starting at 7 p.m. is an information, orientation and sign- up night in the basement of the Whitby Cen- tennial Building. The Junior Band is also auditioning pro- spective members, and it’s directed at high school music students who have achieved an intermediate-to-advanced level of pro- ficiency on trumpet, trombone, horn, bari- tone (euphonium) and tuba.

He’s a co-organizer of the event that celebrates the growing and robust visual art scene in Oshawa, as roughly 100 art- ists from seven art groups exhibit work in vacant commercial spaces downtown. “These people have established them- selves nationally and in many cases internationally and their work will be in some cases controversial and challeng- ing, which are good things,” he says. An Oshawa resident, artist and former arts educator, Greenwood notes that Whitby artist Steven Frank is the driving force behind the event. Its origins are in Durham Artfest, held between 1992 and 1995. Perhaps Oshawa wasn’t ready for such an event about 20 years ago, Greenwood suggests, adding that things have changed and continue to change: the city’s evolution from a place that “has sort of sat in the shadow of Gen- eral Motors and Toronto” into a city with a vibrant arts culture is ongoing. “Oshawa’s a different place,” he says. “There’s so much going on in Oshawa.” Taking part are the Durham Artfest Group, Broken Arts, Durham College Fine Art, Dwyer Catholic High School Alumni Artists, O’Neill Collegiate Alumni Artists, The Vault and The Iris Group. Artists from across Durham are involved and will be showing paintings, sculptures, mixed-media pieces and photography. Greenwood notes Port Per- ry’s Bill Lishman is reprising a piece he became famous for, his tractor rocking chair. His son, sculptor Geordie Lishman from Ajax, is also taking part. The list also includes Whitby’s Jay McCarten, whom Greenwood describes as “a phenomenal abstract painter,” photographer Jean- Michel Komarnicki from Clarington, Pickering native and Oshawa resident Jessica Field and Oshawa’s Olex Wlasen- ko. From Sept. 13 to 28, people can visit each of the locations Wednesday to Sat- urday from noon to 6 p.m. Sept. 20 is the ARTCRAWL, and in addi- tion to the ongoing art exhibitions, with each stop open from 5 to 11 p.m., there will be two stages featuring 10 bands. The main stage, at Celina and King streets, features Oshawa’s Viva Mars at 7 p.m. and Juno Award-winning blues musician Jack de Keyzer from Whitby at 10 p.m. The second stage is on the Victoria Street Mall beside the Regent Theatre. Greenwood notes that OSI coincides with Doors Open Oshawa on Sept. 28 and Culture Days, the latter running Sept. 27 to 29. He advised people to keep an eye on the website, oshawaspaceinvaders.com, for an excursion to be announced during Culture Days weekend. All the art and music takes place from Simcoe Street east to Mary Street and there are no admission charges. The art stops will be identified with a banner, there will be maps at many downtown locations and you can also download a map and learn more at the website.

SUBMITTED PHOTO Barrett swimming with Bears Ajax swimming product earns scholarship OSHAWA -- Oshawa’s Carleigh Barrett has signed a full athletic scholarship with the University of Northern Colorado. For the 18-year-old butterflyer, her sign- ing represents the end of an era that began four years ago with the Ajax Swimming club. Like many of her elite squad teammates, Barrett came to Ajax seeking a better opportunity. Like many of her peers, that move has definitely paid off, as she will join nine other Ajax Swimming products currently active in the NCAA system. For Barrett, a graduate of R.S. McLaugh- lin Collegiate in Oshawa, academics are also an important focus. She is a French immersion diploma recipient and has been on the honour roll in each year of her high school career. In Colorado, Barrett will study in the bachelor of science program, with plans on pursuing a career in nursing. The University of Northern Colorado is located in Greeley, just 45 minutes from Denver. Barrett’s scholarship covers 100 per cent of all expenses and will offer the automatic benefit of training at high alti- tude. The UNC Bears compete in the NCAA Division 1’s WAC Conference, where Car- leigh will start her freshman season as the team’s top butterflyer. “We are thrilled that Carleigh has cho- sen to swim for the Bears,” said UNC’s head coach Kelly McClanahan, in a press release. “She comes from an extensive, quality background of swimming, and she will bring a high knowledge of the sport in with her. Carleigh is going to be a major contributor in her three events, especially the 200 butterfly. She is going to have an exciting and fun collegiate career, in that she will score high at both dual meets and conference. We can’t wait to start working with her.” Barrett will leave Ajax Swimming as the top all-time female butterflyer, with club records in the 13-14 and 15-and-over cat- egories in the 200m event. She is also sec- ond all time in the 100m event. During her career she also achieved the senior national standard in the 1500m freestyle, was a provincial champion, and a senior national finalist. Cassandra Sribny and Kashiff De Jonge named athletes of the week OSHAWA -- Women’s soccer player Cassandra Sribny or Pickering has been named the UOIT student-athlete of the week presented by Boston Pizza, North Oshawa. The first-year striker recorded a hat trick against the University of Windsor, as she scored the first three goals of her career. This is the first time in UOIT women’s soccer history that a player has recorded a hat trick. The Ridgebacks went on to win the match by a score of 5-0. Earlier in the week, the Ridgebacks won their first ever Campus Cup title after beating Durham College by a score of 2-0. Sribny and the Ridgebacks will be back in action on Friday night when they host the University of Waterloo. Kick-off against the Warriors is 6 p.m. Men’s soccer player Kashiff De Jonge of Ajax has been named the Durham College student-athlete of the week presented by Boston Pizza North Oshawa. De Jonge had an amazing first week with the Lords. In the fifth annual Cam- pus Cup against the UOIT Ridgebacks, the first-year striker scored the game- winning goal in the shootout, giving the Lords their fourth title. On Friday night, De Jonge played a big role in the Lords 4-0 OCAA sea- son opening win over St. Lawrence Col- lege, as he scored a goal and added two assists. The Lords will resume OCAA con- ference play on Thursday night against Centennial College. Ajax’s Glenn Reeves named to All-American baseball team AJAX -- Long-time resident and Ajax High School graduate Glenn Reeves Jr., 19, has been named to the US National Amateur Baseball Federation (NABF) All-American team. The selection follows his standout per- formance as a member of Team Ontario at the NABF Senior World Series held in Stru- thers, Ohio. Reeves, a second baseman for the elite baseball team, went six for 15 in the tournament posting a .400 batting aver- age with three singles, two doubles and a home run. The home run, which traveled over the 400 ft. right field fence, was the only one recorded at the five-day tournament -- the oldest amateur tournament in the U.S. -- which saw Team Ontario advance to the semifinals. Reeves, an all-around athlete who also played soccer, rugby and football growing up, started playing T-ball for the Ajax Spar- tans at the age of five. As an NABF All-American Reeves now joins just four other Canadians who have been selected as honourary members of the prestigious team since its creation in 1928. In addition to All-American honours he was also chosen Team Ontario MVP for the sea- son. Reeves is now looking forward to his first year at Parkland Community College in Champagne, Illinois where he is attend- ing on a full baseball scholarship. He credits hard work and great coaching for his suc- cess. 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 • Se p t e m b e r 1 2 , 2 0 1 3 28 AP Split for Pickering Panthers opening weekend Beat Burlington, lose to Newmarket in pair of home ice games Brad Kelly bkelly@durhamregion.com PICKERING -- Things might be different with the Pickering Panthers this season. Certainly the expectations of GM/head coach Mike Galati have increased. The Pan- thers came out of the opening weekend of the Ontario Junior Hockey League regular season with a split in a pair of home games at the Pickering Recreation Complex, dou- bling Burlington 4-2 on Friday but falling 7-4 to Newmarket on Sunday. A weekend split for a team that has strug- gled to stay out of the basement of the standings for a number of years should garner some sort of celebration. Not so after Sunday’s loss, as it was easy to tell Galati was more than a little disappointed with his team. “It’s a situation where I think we did enough to win,” he said. “We matched their work ethic. (Newmarket) work hard. We didn’t play smart enough. We didn’t bear down. Our compete level, for times, just wasn’t there and as high as it should be. “When you let up for minutes at a time against a good team, they make you pay and that’s what happened,” he concluded. Newmarket made the Panthers pay in the third period. Special teams can decide the outcome of games, and that was certainly the case in this one, as Newmarket scored short-handed midway through the final period, and added a power-play goal five minutes later, breaking a 4-4 tie and jump- ing into a 6-4 lead. They added an emp- ty-net goal with 1:49 remaining to put the game out of reach. The short-handed goal took the momen- tum away from the Panthers, who were down 4-2 in the second, but came back to tie the game with a goal late in the sec- ond and an early one in the third. While on the power play in the third tied 4-4, the Panthers turned the puck over at the New- market blue-line, resulting in a two-on-oh break. The power-play goal by Newmarket that followed came on a cross-crease pass. Panthers netminder Steven Dombrosky had little chance on either goal. The Panthers got a pair of goals and an assist from Brodie Tutton, who had a very productive start to the season with four goals and two assists including the Bur- lington game. Michael Walker and Mark Tenuta had the other goals. In Friday’s win over Burlington, Tutton scored twice, with one each to Walker and Robert Cammalleri. With home games this weekend against Milton and Wellington, Galati will be look- ing for a full effort from start to finish from his young club. “We worked all training camp to instill a work ethic. But hockey is 60 minutes and sometimes the kids don’t get it yet. But that’s what we’re here for. We’ll work hard all week and get ready for two big games,” he said. Both weekend games are at the Pickering Recreation Complex, with a 7:30 p.m. start Friday against Milton and 6:30 Sunday night against Wellington. PICKERING -- Pickering Panthers’ Brodie Tutton skated away from Burlington Cougars’ Steven Mueller during their Ontario Junior Hockey League game at the Pickering Recreation Complex on Friday night. The Panthers beat the Cougars 4-2. ryan Pfeiffer / Metroland Raiders coach joins junior ranks Geoff Hodgkinson getting familiar with Uxbridge Bruins Jr. C hockey club Brad Kelly bkelly@durhamregion.com UXBRIDGE -- For the past 21 years as a player and coach, Geoff Hodgkinson has only known two hockey organizations, the Ajax-Pickering Raiders and the Uxbridge Bruins. Initially, he bounced from the Raiders to the Bruins as a player, and now he has repeated the pattern as a coach, leaving the midget AAA program in Ajax-Pickering to become the head coach in Uxbridge. Hodgkinson got his first taste of coaching from behind the bench of a junior club on the weekend, guiding the Bruins through three games at the annual Alliston Jr. C tournament, beating Stayner 2-0 and Cale- don 3-0, but falling to Campbellford 3-1. “You need to hear guys on the bench, how they communicate, how they talk, their character,” said Hodgkinson of being behind the bench instead of in the stands, from where he viewed the first three exhi- bition games to get a different perspec- tive. Heading into Alliston, the Bruins had 26 players and three goalies, whittling that down to 23 and two heading into the final exhibition game on home ice Friday night when they host Port Hope at 7:45 p.m. While they didn’t go beyond the three- game guarantee in Alliston, Hodgkinson saw what he needed to. “I was hoping for guys to take a hold of their spots. We had our veterans signed, but everybody else was fighting for posi- tions,” he said. “We had quite a few kids that crashed and burned, but at the same time, we had some guys who really ele- vated their games and that’s what you’re looking for. “Coming to closure of camp you’re look- ing for guys to own that position and spots and we think we got that.” Hodgkinson, a Brooklin resident, moved to Ajax from Scarborough at the age of 12 and played in the Raiders AAA system all the way through. The graduate of Pickering High School joined the Bruins for four sea- sons from 1997-2001, serving as the cap- tain of the hockey club the final two. When his playing days ended, he jumped right into the coaching ranks, first at the atom level with the Raiders. For the past six sea- sons he has been with the older group, five as head coach of the midgets and one as an assistant with the minor midgets. The head coaching position with the Bru- ins opened just before training camp start- ed when Dan West left to join the Lind- say Muskies of the Ontario Junior Hockey League. Hodgkinson, with ties to the orga- nization and experience as well, came on board. Joining the process so late has had its challenges. “Playing catch up,” he said of the num- ber one obstacle. “As a coach at the midget AAA level for so long, I’m very communi- cative with my assistant coaches, there’s a lot of recruiting involved. I didn’t get that chance this year. “It’s seven days before camp and you’re offered the job and it’s like, ‘OK where do we start?’ I think the overwhelming part of it was the big challenge for me. Now that we’re three or four weeks in and the team is being close to being picked, I’m settling in quite nicely.” The regular season starts for the Bruins on Saturday, Sept. 21 in Georgina. Durham Attack charges into 22nd year of volleyball as tryouts are ongoing DURHAM -- The 2013-14 volleyball season marks the 22nd year of operation for the Dur- ham Attack Volleyball Club. Beginning in 1991 with only one boys’ team, the club has grown to include a full comprehensive competitive program for both male and female athletes between the ages of 12-18, a strong recreational program for athletes between the ages of 8-16, a sitting volleyball program for able-bodied and dif- ferently-abled athletes, and a summer camp program for both competitive and recreation- al athletes. The club has achieved a great deal of success in a short period of time. Much of this success is directly attributed to the vol- unteer coaching staff. The club has excel- lent coaching, many of whom have also par- ticipated in regional, provincial and national team programs. Durham is a hotbed of youth volleyball and many coaches are also teachers who work for the Durham District School Board and the Durham Catholic School Board. These coaches and many of their colleagues provide athletes with a strong foundation of skills. Tryouts for this season are ongoing at various locations in the region.

There are benefits to having new windows and doors. 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 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 to come out and fix the installation from people who have tried to install windows themselves or have used a friend or family member.” 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. In fact, Durham Windows and Doors won the Platinum Award for Best Windows and Doors in the 2012 Readers’ Choice Awards. 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 36 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. For more information, please call Wayne at (905) 579- 2222 or 1-888-576-8575 or visit the website at www.durhamwindowsanddoors.ca.
