On Saturday, June 7, at about 10:30 p.m., a 22-year- old woman was walk- ing home in the Liv- erpool and Glenan- na roads area of Pickering when she was approached by a stranger, police report. The sus- pect grabbed her and touched her inappropriately before flee- ing. A K-9 unit was sent to the scene but was unsuccessful in locating the suspect. The suspect is described as a black male with light skin, approximately six feet tall, with a skinny build, curly hair, and wearing a white T-shirt and pants. See POLICE page 4 Community helps put Pickering rescue boat back on the water Re-dedication celebrated as boating season gets underway Jillian Follert jfollert@durhamregion.com PICKERING -- A Pickering rescue boat is back on the water thanks to the support of the community. On Saturday, June 7, a crowd gathered at Frenchman’s Bay Yacht Club to re-dedicate the Pickering Auxiliary Rescue Association’s patrol vessel, after it was out of com- mission for months due to engine trouble. “The engines are the heart of the boat, so in essence she has a new heart,” says PARA commodore Gary Endicott. “Because of that we thought we should do a re-dedica- tion.” The PARU boat -- which stands for Pickering Auxiliary Rescue Unit -- has been in service for about 20 years and recently needed to have both engines replaced at a cost of $127,000.

An army of students from schools across Canada charged toward Juno Beach in France on June 6, kicking off a commemo- rative ceremony to mark the 70th anniver- sary of D-Day. More than 1,000 youth from 38 Canadi- an schools and cadet groups marched in silence save for the sound of their sneak- ers pounding the concrete. The three-kilo- metre march began at Parc de l’Edit and weaved its way through the town of Cour- seulles-sur-Mer, evoking a chorus of cheers and applause from the locals. “Bravo,” shouted one man, sunbathing on the sandy beach as he watched the pro- cession pass -- a sea of red and white unit- ed by the common goal of showing their gratitude for the thousands of Canadian troops who fought there. At the head of the procession among the schools were students from Monsi- gnor Paul Dwyer Catholic High School in Oshawa. “To me, D-Day means freedom and fighting for the right reasons,” said Skylor McQueen, 17, from Dwyer, who had the opportunity to sit on the stage as a repre- sentative of Canada’s youth during Friday’s ceremony. “It makes me feel really proud to be Canadian.” On June 6, 1944, 14,000 Canadians stormed the eight-kilometre stretch of beach between Graye-sur-Mer and St. Aubin-sur-Mer. They were followed by 150,000 additional Canadian troops over the next few months. Canadian soldiers of the 3rd Canadian Infantry Division and 2nd Canadian Armoured Brigade, which formed the Canadian assault force on Juno Beach, suffered 1,074 casualties, including 359 killed on the first day of the invasion. Overall, more than 5,500 Canadians died during the Battle of Normandy -- more than any other division in the British Army Group. “The veterans of D-Day are the embodi- ment of the values of our country for we are a peaceful country,” said Prime Minister Stephen Harper, who addressed the thou- sands in attendance, including 100 Cana- dian veterans. “Then as now, Canadians understood why peacemakers are said to be blessed but the men who landed here a lifetime ago also understood that a curse rests upon the person who, reluctant to fight for good, denies the very existence of evil ... it is the Canadian way, to stand with like-minded Allies for what is good, right and just.” He encouraged the young people there to never forget the sacrifices of Canadian sol- diers and the courage with which they pro- tected freedom for all. “Remember that in not so many years, the duty of remembrance will belong to your generation and yours alone,” he said. Students from Ajax High School had the special privilege of being the only school to attend a private wreath-laying ceremony a day earlier at Beny-sur-Mer Canadian War Cemetery where they shook hands with the prime minister. “It was a huge honour and so unexpect- ed,” said Emily Harrison, 18, who read the poem, “In Flanders Fields” at the event. “My heart was beating really fast and I had to take a deep breath to calm down,” she added with a laugh. “It was amazing to be a small part of such a big and important event for our country.” Durham schools arrived in Europe with EF Educational Tours last week to take part in several commemorative activities as part of the 70th anniversary of D-Day and the Liberation of Rome. Taylor Dilnot, 16, from Father Leo J. Aus- tin Catholic Secondary School in Whitby, said her favourite part of the trip was inter- acting with the veterans. “I asked them where they fought and how they were feeling at the time,” she said. “I’ve learned a lot and it’s made me very humbled and aware of everything they did for us.” When asked by a student what advice he had for young people, veteran James War- ford from Burlington didn’t mince words. “Don’t get the idea that war was glamor- ous,” he said. “It was pure hell.” Mr. Warford, who was a sergeant in the Second World War, said everyone had their own reasons for signing up to fight. For him, it was to serve his country, but he admits, “You have no idea what it’s going to be like until you get there.” The D-Day invasion was the first time during his service that he said the real- ity of what was happening finally set in, but it didn’t prepare him for what came next. When he walked along Juno Beach for what could be the last time on Friday, he remembered his comrades who didn’t come back. “We were in a field just outside of Caen when the conflict was going on and they were shelling us once again because we were hauling ammunition and if they cut off the supply, they cut off the powers of the army, so we lost a couple of boys then -- good friends,” he said, as tears welled up in his eyes. Donald Somerville, a 91-year-old Second World War veteran from Mississauga, said he was glad to see all the young people at the ceremony but not surprised. Through his work with the Royal Canadian Legion Branch 582, Mr. Somerville has met many youth who he believes truly understand and appreciate the value of remembrance. “One of the principals from the local schools gave me letters from the students and I still have them at home -- I’m going to give them to my grandchildren,” he said. “I know now that our country is going to be in good hands with these young people the way they’re coming along.” view the photo gallery @ durhamregion.com NORMANDY, FRANCe -- Students from Ajax High School, including emily Harrison, Nirvana Mohamed, and Alex Bucknam, at right, chatted with Second world war vet- eran James warford.

On Saturday, June 14, Mayor Dave Ryan and members of council will present gold medalist Jennifer Wakefield with a key to the city. The event runs from 1 to 3 p.m. at the Pickering Recreation Complex Arena, with the presentation planned for 2 p.m. There will also be a mini skills competi- tion with the Durham West Girls Lightning. Ms. Wakefield is a Pickering native and has been a member of the national wom- en’s hockey team program since 2007. She and Newcastle’s Tara Watchorn were the two local players on the Olympic wom- en’s hockey team that brought home gold from the 2014 Sochi Olympics. The Canadian team beat the United States 3-2 in a nail-biting overtime game on Feb. 20. “Being down two nothing is not something you want with 10 minutes left,” Ms. Wakefield said in a recent inter- view. “At that point we were just focusing on getting one goal. Once we did that, the momentum was in our favour and every- thing changed. It was like the hockey gods finally showed up.” YOUR CASINOTOUR SPECIALISTS!

The suspect grabbed her by the shirt then touched her inappropriately, police said. The victim screamed and the suspect ran in a northeast direction on Meek- ings Drive. A K-9 unit was unsuccessful in finding the suspect. The suspect is described as an East Indian male, 20 to 25 years old, about six feet tall, slender build, clean shaven, wearing a grey hooded sweatshirt and black, knee-length shorts. Anyone with new information that might assist investigators is asked to contact Det. Wilson of the Major Crime Sexual Assault Unit at 1-888-579-1520, ext. 5320. Anonymous tips can be made to Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477 or online at www.durhamregionalcrimestoppers. ca. POLICE from page 1 The goal was reached thanks to fundraising efforts, a $35,000 Trillium Foundation grant and support from the City of Pickering, Verid- ian and Ontario Power Generation. While the engines have been replaced, PARA is still hoping to raise about $30,000 to replace some of its savings. “This was an eye opener for us, we realized fundraising has to be an integral part of what we do,” Mr. Endicott said, noting the PARU vessel will eventually need to be replaced at a cost of about $500,000. PARA is volunteer group that operates a marine rescue service and works to educate boaters about water safety. The group’s 45 members go through year- round training that covers marine first aid and CPR, navigation, search patterns, anchoring, towing, marine weather and “de- watering” or damage control for boats in dis- tress. PARA volunteers are on call 24 hours a day for all kinds of emergencies on the water including night searches in response to emergency flares, vessels in distress, suspect- ed drownings and vessels in need of a tow. During boating season from May to Octo- ber, PARA volunteers put in more than 1,100 hours of service. Since 1967 PARA volunteers have assisted about 3,000 people in emergency situations, including 260 life-threatening calls.

On my left, a compilation of research courtesy of Malcolm Gladwell is waiting to be read and discussed. Cataloging and shelving these masterful works of writing is one of my responsibilities for the month of June. In addition to the accessibility of so many pieces of literature and reference, what makes this place exciting is that it exists at all. In the rural town of San Augus- tin, Philippines, the concept of a community library is positively ground breaking. It is with the compassion and dedication of the many international volunteers here in the Philippines over the years that this library was even built -- and then stocked with an array of books. It is thanks to many people around the world that I am here vol- unteering today, too. The financial, resource and spiritual support of my friends, family and community made it possible for me to travel to the Philippines for one month to lend a hand to this library; sharing my pas- sion for education. I started a fundraising campaign, Philanthropy in the Philippines, six months ago with the vision of helping the people of the Philippines recover from Typhoon Yolanda/Haiyan in the best way I know -- reading as a form of recovery. I see huge potential for the library. I’m thinking of organizing book clubs, reading buddies, workshops, homework help -- I’m thinking of the Whitby Public Library, where I spent so much of my time as a young person. I hope my presence here, my ideas for the library, and my strained attempts to speak in Tagalog will excite the youth. I am here to nurture the library, to foster an appreciation for the written arts, and assist students. I hope to leave here with a new perspective, a few more friends, and a bet- ter concept of Filipino time. The circulation of books is not the only exchange with the locals in which I want to participate. -- Madelin, 18, is a book fanatic and hand sanitizer addict who is currently volunteering in San Augustin. Madelin Burt-D’Agnillo Guest column Mission abroad Solutions to student apathy To the editor: As summer approaches, parents may be finding themselves disappointed with their children’s final marks. Reasons as to why apathy is being seen in students regarding their education must be examined. Adults are quick to blame teens for insufficient grades, but a more in-depth analysis must be taken to discover why this is occurring. It is known that the average attention span lasts anywhere from 10 to 40 minutes. After a seven-hour school day, teachers expect stu- dents to work for numerous hours at home. Studies show that work ethic and concen- tration plummet after lunch, yet half of the school day remains, along with homework. Secondly, it is the responsibility of parents to remain as involved as possible in the stu- dents’ work. Many parents only see updates through report cards. Awareness of in-class work and assign- ments must be raised. Thirdly, teachers must spend more time catering to the needs of individual students. Everyone’s brain works differently, yet most students are taught the same material, while being expected to absorb it equally. This is impractical, and an outdated form of education Marquis Bedlington Hudak’s PCs have best plan for Ontario Given the party’s plan for a smaller public sector workforce and a push to eliminate Ontario’s deficit, we endorse Tim Hudak’s Progressive Conservatives to form the next provincial government. Mr. Hudak’s mission to clear up years of government largesse, fiscal mismanage- ment and scandal is a daunting challenge, but he has earned the right and the oppor- tunity to lead Ontario with a command of the issues and a plan to deal with them. Clearly, after 10 years of two majority governments and a minority government led by the Ontario Liberals under Dalton McGuinty and then Kathleen Wynne, it’s well past time for Ontarians to show them the door. Under these Liberals -- expen- sively propped up by Andrea Horwath and the NDP as the junior partner in this minority government -- hydro costs have soared with the Green Energy Act, deficits have ballooned, jobs have disappeared, and we have become a ‘have-not’ province in Canada’s confederation. And while Mr. Hudak’s pledges will cause some pain, the medicine he prescribes -- reductions in spending, tighter fiscal over- sight, less corporate taxation -- is necessary to position Ontario for a return to prosper- ity, job creation and good governance. Ontario’s Progressive Conservatives, led by Mr. Hudak, offers a stark contrast to the status quo of Ms. Wynne and Ms. Hor- wath. Their policies will lead to still higher rates of taxation, more deficit spending and more costly programs and policies, despite their rhetoric and highly spun press releas- es. Timing, too, is crucial for this election. Questions remain about Premier Wynne’s Liberals having the fortitude to face down expensive demands from union support- ers, while Mr. Hudak will take a harder line in his attempt to reduce the size of the pub- lic sector and its costs to Ontario taxpayers. Mr. Hudak is not perfect, not by any means. His “million jobs” slogan was easily and properly questioned, but his approach to leading is the one that’s needed at this juncture. Durham residents can no longer afford a provincial government too eager to turn to voters to pay for its expensive errors, its lack of judgment and its propensity to set aside ethics and good governance for the sake of political expediency. The choice seems clear: ever higher costs and ever higher taxes under a Liberal gov- ernment, or a return to fiscal prudence, lower taxes and better economic condi- tions under Tim Hudak’s PCs. Yours was idiocy, mine was an accident Recently, I found myself, once again, in a traffic jam, hapless and helpless. This seems to be happening more often than not, lately. Sadly, it has occurred to me that, in the not-so-distant past, one used to get caught in the occasional, rare traffic pile- up. Nowadays things have reversed them- selves to the point where we now get caught in the occasional, rare swath of smoothly moving traffic. The traffic jam has become the norm. Most hardened commuters now simply expect the Don Valley Parkway to be moving at a snail’s pace as we merge onto it, regardless of the time of day. Traffic moving the way it was originally designed to move -- smoothly, fluidly -- is now considered a blessing, an omen of a good day to come. We have become inured to rotten traffic. That doesn’t, however, mean we like it. Humans, in spite of our sometimes luna- tic behaviour and inability to signal, wave a thanks or use the left hand lane for its intended design, are still slaves to logic. We crave the soothing balm of cause and effect. Nothing makes a driver angrier than sitting for hours in bumper-to-bumper, carbon monoxide hell and never discovering why. We need to see that accident or that road crew or that Hooters billboard that is the root of our troubles. It doesn’t remove us from our current tribulations at all but at least we get the satisfaction of a mumbled exple- tive or two. We can tell ourselves, if only for a moment, that we are not the idiots respon- sible for putting ourselves through this every day. That it is, in fact, that person, or those people or that thing that is the cause of our four-wheeled despair. And the longer the traffic jam, the bigger the expected payoff. One particularly exas- perated driver I once shared a gridlocked car with actually uttered the phrase, ‘There’d better be bodies at the end of this’. Terrifying but true. Humans love to blame. I sometimes think the only reason God gave us an index finger is so that we could point it at other people. And I am by no means above such contemptible behaviour. I like my ounce of flesh as much as the next hot head. During this last freeway foul-up, as the metal sauna I was driving finally inched past the responsible parties and their exasperat- ingly minor fender bender, I had an admit- tedly evil but nonetheless deliciously satis- fying thought. Wouldn’t it feel wonderful, after fuming in your car for hours, to drive by the scene of the accident and see not just police and EMS vehicles, but the perpetra- tors being made accountable? Tell me your blood pressure wouldn’t drop enormously if you had the gratification of seeing some idiot forced to wear a sandwich board that read: “Sorry, I was texting.” Of course, my original notion was even less charitable. I pictured them in stocks, their particular transgression printed in lurid, red paint beneath their sorry faces, ‘PUT- TING MASCARA ON WHILE DRIVING’, ‘NO SNOW TIRES – WHAT WAS I THINKING?’ or ‘JUST PLAIN STUPID’. And of course, my ungenerous scenario would not be com- plete until all the rest of us good, decent, faultless drivers were encouraged to drive by these vehicular Hester Prynnes and give them an earful. Sounds good, huh? I think it might work. Unless of course, it’s you or me who happen to cause the traffic jam ... then it’s just an accident. -- Durham resident Neil Crone, actor, comic, writer, saves some of his best lines for this column. du r h a m r e g i o n . c o m Ne w s A d v e r t i s e r • Ju n e 1 1 , 2 0 1 4 7 AP 10 Candy bars Enter Laughing Neil Crone Actor, comic, writer Let’s Talk Weigh in with readers on topics of the day www.facebook.com/ newsdurham Poll An animated discussion took place on our Facebook page last week with news the Ontario’s Special Investigations Unit cleared the Durham police officer who fatally shot Ajax resident Michael McIsaac.

I patiently waited on the rocks, shooting at every movement until a clear shot of this fish was taken, just as it sprung from the water as it tried to fight the cur- rent to spawn.

Derrick Webber: It is disheartening to see so many people comment about what the cop should have done when they have no idea what it truly is like to be a cop. They make it sound so easy. Use a taser they say. Should have used a baton they say. Should have talked to the person who was screaming, swing- ing a weapon around and not listening to the offi- cer. Not as easy to as you make it out to be. TraCee Dixon: So very sorry for this outcome for this family; may you in time find the strength and power to heal over such a heartwrenching, senseless loss...May this also be a lesson that there is sooo much more training and knowledge need- ed in almost all fields when dealing with the mentally ill/distraught/confused persons. God bless this family. Marianne Madjarian-McIsaac: I am Michael MacIsaac’s wife ... My hus- band did not have “mental” health issues, he suffered from Epilepsy as a result of a childhood injury ... that morning he had a com- plex partial seizure and even while confronted by police was in the postictal state of the sei- zure thus he would not be able to comprehend commands at that very moment. Mark Stewart: Police officers who can not handle mentally ill folks who are armed with neither a firearm nor a knife shoud not be police officer...the officer should face criminal charges...we need to stand up and stop being enablers of police brutal- ity....why is a former crown attorney heading the SIU...crown and cops work hand in hand. du r h a m r e g i o n . c o m Ne w s A d v e r t i s e r • Ju n e 1 1 , 2 0 1 4 8 P Discover and createmoments of joy!

An Environmental Study Report (ESR) was prepared as part of the study and made available for public, agency and other stakeholder review. The ESR recommended the widening of Highway 2 for dedicated transit in curb lanes with buffered on-road bicycle lanes within the three transit priority opportunity areas. The ESR was approved September 5,2012. PUBLIC INFORMATION CENTRES You are invited to attend the Public Information Centre (PIC)events being planned as part of this Addendum.

A publication ban imposed when the proceedings began in January, 2014 was lifted on Monday.) OSHAWA -- On a dank July night in 2009, Al Smith helped his pals dump a body. The stiff was that of a dope dealer he and his buddy, Danny, had robbed the previous day of 40 pounds of pot; they had acted on instructions from their boss Jack, who appeared now out of the mid- night gloom in a parking lot, boots spat- tered with blood and a corpse in the back of his truck. Danny and Al drove to a remote area of York Region, pulled over by the side of the road, and hauled out the tarp-wrapped body. Heaving and puffing, they hoisted it over a guardrail and let go. The body slid to the bottom of a ravine. The fellows watched the package tum- ble down the incline. “Just like a f---ing toboggan,” Danny mused. The next day Al Smith confessed to a 35-year-old unsolved murder. And now Mr. Smith, 63, sits each day in the prisoner’s dock of an Oshawa court- room, accused of the first-degree murder of Beverly Smith. His pals, it turns out, were undercover cops. The body was a dummy, a prop in a series of elaborate “plays” staged by the police to gain his confidence and obtain his confession. They got the confession -- twice -- and that leaves Durham police confi- dent they’ve found the answer to a mys- tery that’s eluded investigators since Bev Smith was found dead in the kitchen of her home in Raglan in 1974. Mr. Smith’s defence lawyer, Alison Craig, contends that Mr. Smith is a hap- less fall guy, a lonesome old man lured into a classic Mr. Big trap: befriended and enlisted by men he thought were criminals -- even killers -- and then coerced into a false confession. Ms. Craig and co-counsel Joanne McLean have applied for a stay of pro- ceedings against Mr. Smith, who has been in custody since his 2009 arrest. It was his second arrest for Bev Smith’s murder; he was arrested in 2008 and released after the Crown withdrew the charge. Alternatively, they want evidence, including Mr. Smith’s confessions, gath- ered during the undercover operation declared inadmissible. Cops “crossed the line” in their aggres- sive investigation, Ms. Craig argued Monday. “This case and what was done to Mr. Smith is an affront to the justice system,” she told Superior Court Justice Bruce Glass. “Everything that happened here consti- tutes an egregious abuse of process.” There have been several major inves- tigations by Durham police into the death of 22-year-old Beverly Smith, who was murdered on Monday, Dec. 9, 1974 by someone who walked into her kitch- en and shot her once in the back of the head. Through the decades, one prevailing police theory has been that Ms. Smith was killed by someone intent on steal- ing a stash of marijuana kept in the house. On the Friday before the murder Bev’s husband, Doug Smith, had bought a pound of pot. A couple of ounces were sold over the weekend, according to evi- dence heard in court. On the night of the murder police found about half of the weed in an upstairs bed- room and surmised the rest -- about six ounces -- was stolen by whoever shot Ms. Smith. Cops determined neighbours Al Smith and his then-wife Linda (no relation to Bev and Doug) found Bev Smith’s body that night. Doug Smith, on the night shift at GM, was unable to get Bev by phone and called Linda to have her check the house. Linda ran back and told Doug to rush home; Al parked his humane soci- ety van with its amber lights flashing in the driveway to guide the ambulance to Bev’s house. Police at first thought Ms. Smith, found on her back with a pool of blood around her head, was a victim of blunt force trauma. It wasn’t until an autopsy was conducted the next morning they deter- mined she’d been shot with a .22 calibre bullet. The killing of Ms. Smith -- she’d been alone in the house with her infant daugh- ter nearby -- shocked the community. Cops concluded Ms. Smith, who always kept her doors locked, had allowed her killer -- someone she knew, apparently -- into the house. An intensive investigation yielded sev- eral suspects, numerous .22 calibre guns, and no arrests. The trail ran cold and the case lan- guished until 1988, when Durham homi- cide detectives revisited the file. They quickly honed in on Doug Daigle, a drug dealer who supplied Doug Smith with weed, including the pound acquired a few days before the murder. Police travelled to British Columbia to once again interrogate Mr. Daigle, whose 1974 alibi -- he said he was at home with a girlfriend -- had been cast in doubt. After confronting him they felt confident enough to place him under arrest, hop- ing he’d succumb to pressure and betray his involvement. An undercover police officer was placed in Mr. Daigle’s hold- ing cell to record any incriminating com- ments. But no confession came. After a few hours they cut Mr. Daigle loose. There were no major developments in the case until 2008, when Alan Dale Smith was charged with the second- degree murder of Beverly Smith. Next: The case against Alan Smith.

A JAX, ON L1Z 1T7 |(905) 427-7737 |GOLFDEERCREEK.COM Durham man’s story of attack on wife assailed by lawyer Former Ajax couple embroiled in court battle Jeff Mitchell jmitchell@durhamregion.com OSHAWA -- A lawyer has assailed a Durham’s man claim that he was attacked by his knife-wielding wife, accusing him of lying from the time the incident occurred three and a half years ago. Paul Martin lied to Jamaican police after his wife’s throat was slashed, and he continues to lie as he battles in family court for access to their children, lawyer Martha McCarthy suggested Fri- day. “You have continued not to tell the truth,” Ms. McCar- thy said as she began her cross examination of Mr. Martin. “I disagree,” Mr. Martin replied. Mr. Martin and his estranged wife, Cathy Clayson, are embroiled in a bitter family court battle in Oshawa. She is seeking to have him found civilly responsi- ble for an attack she says occurred on Dec. 23, 2010, on a remote road near their Jamaican resort. She has also applied to have Mr. Martin’s supervised access visits with their two children terminat- ed. Ms. Clayson has testified that her dysfunctional marriage to Mr. Martin was all but over by the time they took their Jamaican vacation. She said Mr. Martin drove her to a remote area under the pretense of taking pictures then attacked her with a knife, slashing twice at her throat. Mr. Martin, who is representing himself, told Superior Court Jus- tice Roger Timms Thursday that he was defending himself from an enraged, knife-wielding Ms. Clay- son when she was injured. Immediately after the attack Mr. Martin, who left his wife bleeding by the road, told police she was stabbed during a robbery. He said he’d fought off the attacker, who fled. In court Thursday he said he had been intent on telling author- ities the real story, but that Ms. Clayson pleaded with him to present police with a trumped-up robbery scenario. Mr. Martin was charged with attempted murder and went to trial on a lesser charge in Jamaica. He was acquitted and returned to Canada in late 2011. Friday Ms. McCarthy, who rep- resents Ms. Clayson, said that Mr. Martin had many chances to tell authorities what really happened, but failed to do so until he testi- fied on his own behalf at his trial in Jamaica. Mr. Martin replied that he’d told his defence lawyers, but was instructed to keep his mouth shut. “They absolutely said don’t speak to anybody -- that it was in their hands,” Mr. Martin said. The trial continues in Oshawa. Carriers of the Week Congratulations Brendan for being our Carrier of the Week. 279 Kingston Rd. E.,Ajax 260 Kingston Rd.

Three levels of rid- ers competed in junior, midget and senior level races. Schools from Durham, York, Hastings and Prince Edward County, and Toronto competed. Celia Klemenz / Metroland Dunbarton mountain biker among best at high school event UXBRIDGE -- The inaugural OFSAA-sanc- tioned high school 4.5-kilometre moun- tain bike race was held in the Durham for- est on May 30. Three levels of riders competed in races. Uxbridge A team took first in the relay race. Ryan Anderson, of Notre Dame Catho- lic Secondary School of Ajax, and Emily Thomas, of Dunbarton High Shool in Pickering, took top spots in the senior races. Malcolm Barton, of Uxbridge Ssecond- ary, and Kierstyn Hawke, of O’Neill Col- legiate, rode to first-place finishes in the junior races. In the midget division, Mike Foley, of Milton District, and Sierra Orschel, of Uxbridge Secondary, took top place in their races. More than 20 high schools from Dur- ham, York, Hastings and Prince Edward County and Toronto competed in the event. The event was sanctioned by OFSAA and will hopefully lead to full OFSAA pro- vincial competitions in the future. Eric Orschel, an Uxbridge resident and Dunbarton High School teacher, has been instrumental for many years in teaching, coaching and supporting youth in the sport of mountain biking. Brooklin resident and Olympic moun- tain bike racer Emily Batty started her racing career at the Durham Forest. She still trains in Durham Forest when she’s home from the International racing cir- cuit. Her younger sister now races in the high school series. Ironheads collect a point in weekend play AJAX -- The Ajax Ironheads continue to press for a playoff spot, picking up a sin- gle point in Ontario Lacrosse Association Jr. B lacrosse action over the cour week- end. The Ironheads were humbled 11-4 by the Oakville Buzz on Friday, but salvaged a 9-9 tie with the Mississauga Toma- hawks on Saturday. Jake Gilmour’s first of the night late in overtime pulled the Ironheads into a tie with Mississauga. The teams finished the game tied 7-7 after the Ironheads estab- lished leads of 2-1 after the first period and 6-2 after the second. Patrick Morgan’s second of the night opened the scoring in the overtime, but Mississauga answered with a pair to take a 9-8 lead, Gilmour’s goal coming with 1:07 left to end the scoring. Morgan’s first of the night sent the game into overtime, scoring to tie the game 7-7. Entering the third with a 6-2 lead, the Ironheads surrendered five unanswered goals to Mississauga, one of those on a power play and another short- handed, falling behind 7-6 at the time. Ryan Morrison and Cam Mancini scored two goals each, with others by Steven Berger and Mitchell Gustavsen. In Oakville, Matt Fountain, Morgan, Gilmour and Gustavsen were the goal scorers in the 11-4 loss. The Ironheads trailed 2-0 after the first and 5-3 after two, but a weak third period, outscored 6-1, cost them any chance of collecting any points. The Ironheads are 6-10-1 with just three games left to play in the regular season. They resume on Saturday in Halton Hills, finishing up in Clarington (June 19) and Mimico (June 20). Speed Academy’s Abdul-Rashid golden at OFSAA Breaks 19-year-old record in 400m hurdles MISSISSAUGA -- Oshawa’s Mariam Abdul-Rashid led the way at the OFSAA provincial track-and-field champion- ships, winning two gold medals and a sil- ver as Durham Region athletes brought home 28 medals all told from the meet in Mississauga. Abdul-Rashid, a Grade 11 student from Eastdale Collegiate and member of the Pickering-based Speed Academy, broke a 19-year-old record in the senior girls’ 400m hurdles and also won the 100m hur- dles, while finishing second in the 200m run. Last year, she competed in the 100m, 200m and 400m runs as a junior, and won all three. Riley Tell of Whitby’s Father Leo J. Aus- tin Catholic Secondary School also deliv- ered a two gold-medal performance, win- ning both the 1500m and 3000m runs in the junior boys’ division. Daijha Heron of Whitby’s Sinclair and Xahria Santiago of Ajax’s Notre Dame both won gold and silver medals, as Heron pre- vailed in the senior girls’ long jump and finished second in the triple jump while Santiago won the midget girls’ 300m hur- dles and was runner-up in the 100m dash. Other champions were Sinclair’s Te- Anna Stephenson (midget long jump), St. Mary’s Taylor Sharpe (senior 400m), Port Perry’s Tyler Field (midget javelin) and Eastdale’s Aiden Victor (junior 100m). Silver medallists were Wilson’s Aman- da Bull (midget 3000m) and Hiley Dobbs (junior 3000m), Pine Ridge’s Tia Thevenin (senior 100m hurdles), All Saints’ Kurdell Reason (junior 200m), McLaughlin’s Isaac Dobos (2000m steeplechase) and Dun- barton’s midget girls’ 4x100m relay team. Bronze medallists were Pickering’s Savannah Davidson (midget high jump), Alanna Hendricks (senior 100m) and Zanara McIntosh (senior 200m), Dun- barton’s Ellie Zeeman-Atkinson (midget shot put), Notre Dame’s Luke Jaciw-Zura- kowsky (midget 3000m), Clarke’s Trev- or Greenwood (senior discus), St. Mary’s Dominic Stewart (100m ambulatory), St. Stephen’s midget boys’ 4x100 relay team and Pickering’s senior boys’ 4x400m relay team. Buoyed by Abdul-Rashid’s perfor- mance, Eastdale finished tied for ninth in the overall team standings and second in senior girls. du r h a m r e g i o n . c o m Ne w s A d v e r t i s e r • Ju n e 1 1 , 2 0 1 4 16 P Whitevale duo win Ontario PGA tournament Kevan Goble, Steve Rodriguez win by one GEORGETOWN -- As the saying goes, ‘If at first you don’t succeed, try again,’ so that’s exactly what Kevan Goble and Steve Rodri- guez took to the bank, winning the 2014 PGA of Ontario Pro/Pro championship presented by Boutique Pro Golf at the Club at North Halton. While many of the two-person teams in this popular PGA of Ontario championship have been trying to win this one for years, some for decades, Goble and Rodriguez made good in only their second appear- ance together as they carded a sweet 7-under par 65 to take the title by a single shot over the pairings of Craig Marseilles and Brian McCann and Gary Jeffery and Bruce Rogerson at 6-under, 66. “Last year I resodded the lawn the day before this championship and it caught up with me as the day went on,” said Rodri- guez who works at Whitevale Golf Club with Goble. “This time around, Kevan threatened to decapitate me if I did any yard work so I just took it easy on Sunday.” They made an early charge with con- secutive birdies on the first four holes they played. That set the tone for much of the afternoon at the Club at North Halton, which is celebrating its 60th anniversary this year. “We had one bogey last year and one bogey this year, both on the same hole, No. 14,” Goble said, noting they may play it a little different in 2015. The duo shared a first-place cheque for $3,200. The Whitevale twosome was paired with the team of Josh Growden and two-time winner Ken Fulton, who won in 1978 with Phil Brownlee and then in 2001 with Tim McKeiver. “Josh and Ken made a pile of birdies and we seemed to keep feeding off each other. It was awesome to play with a guy who won this event over 30 years ago and is still play- ing it today. We’d be lucky to have a swing like Kenny 30 years from now,” said Rodri- guez, who is focusing on bringing his game up a notch or two with his sights set on playing competitive golf at a higher level. Rodriguez and Goble lost in a playoff last October in the PGA of Ontario Fall Scram- ble and they were one shot from a playoff earlier this month at the PGA of Ontario Assistants’ team championship. For the first time in recent memory the championship was filled to capacity and there was a waiting list for others hoping to get a spot.
