And, what could be the potential stumbling blocks for it coming to the Motor City? Brian McNair bmcnair@durhamregion.com T he Oshawa Generals have made no secret they’d like to host the 100th Memorial Cup in 2018, but, ironical- ly, what may end up hampering the team’s chances most involves win- ning the junior national champion- ship last year. Of the criteria that needs to be sat- isfied for any successful bid, the cali- bre of the host team is perhaps most crucial of all; it simply must be able to put up a fight with the country’s best once the puck drops. The Generals, by sacrificing plen- ty of picks and prospects to take a run at the championship last sea- son, may be hard-pressed to get back to that level in just under two years from now — and, more important, to show the powers that be they’re headed in that direction in less than a year.

It’s a 60-year-old bungalow on a quiet, tree-lined street not far from Stevenson Road in Oshawa. The pair bought the property from the adult children of the original owners for $425,000 last month after searching since January for a house to call home. For Ms. Bida, 25 and Mr. Mohns, 29, their dream home needed to have income potential and give them the opportunity to make it their own, by renovating and redesigning. The young couple will be featured in a blog on durhamregion.com where they’ll showcase their skills. “We are looking at doing a bunch of DIY projects,” explained Ms. Bida. “I’ll be painting furniture and repurposing the kitchen cabinets.” Mr. Mohns is a real handyman. He has plans to tear down the wall between the master bedroom and spare bedroom and switch their uses, making a bigger bed- room and a spacious closet. The old master bedroom will be changed into a family room which will have patio doors added so there will be an entrance/ exit to the large backyard. “We want to be able to have friends over and enjoy the yard,” said Mr. Mohns. As far as the basement goes, Mr. Mohns plans to make it a two-bedroom apart- ment complete with a full kitchen, bath- room and separate laundry. He said he thinks it’ll take him two months to complete and cost upwards of $10,000. The couple expects the entire renovation will take four or five months. This house and renovation project are just the beginning for Ms. Bida and Mr. Mohns. They hope to buy another home just like this in about two years and start all over again, to construct a two-unit, rental property. You can check out their renovation results at durhamregion.com Stefanie Swinson/ Metroland OSHAWA -- Jess Bida and Kyle Mohns are renovating their new home which is 60 years old.

Agents with the Federal Bureau of Inves- tigation launched an investigation in March after a young female complained of receiving sexually explicit messages online. When it was determined the mes- sages were originating from Ontario, the FBI enlisted the assistance of the OPP’s Child Sexual Exploitation Unit. On June 2 OPP and Durham police exe- cuted a search warrant at a Brooklin resi- dence, seizing three computers that were held for forensic analysis. John Hodge, 45, of Brooklin, is charged with three counts of Internet luring and one count of sending sexually explic- it material to a child. He was released on conditions following a bail hearing and is due back in court in Oshawa June 20. The investigation continues, OPP said.

Durham Region is holding Reuse Days from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the waste management centre at 4600 Garrard Rd., Whitby. Reuse Days is an attempt to divert quality, reusable items, such as clothing, textiles, furniture, appliances, cabinets, countertops and most other reusable renova- tion materials, away from the waste stream. At Reuse Days, partnering charities work with the Region to accept all good-quality, reusable household items and building materials. Items are donated to Habitat for Humanity ReStores (Ajax, Oshawa and Uxbridge locations), the Canadian Diabetes Association and the Salvation Army Thrift Store. Only good-quality items, deemed to be suitable for reuse by charities, will be accepted. Garbage, household hazardous waste and electronics will not be accepted. Materials refused by charities must be removed by resi- dents or disposed of at one of the Region’s waste manage- ment facilities (fees will apply). For more information on Reuse Days, including a list of acceptable items, visit www.durham.ca/wasteevents or call 1-800-667-5671.

Publication Sales Agreement #40052657 our opinion Durham residents lined the bridges of Hwy. 401 more than 150 times during Canada’s involvement in the Afghani- stan war when Canadian soldiers were brought home, having paid the ultimate sacrifice for their country. It was always a moving tribute, as moms, dads, kids, retired people, emer- gency personnel and people from all walks of life waved a Canadian flag, closed their eyes, said a silent prayer or sang O Canada as the body of a soldier was brought home along the Highway of Heroes. Durham residents should be proud of the outpouring of emotions they showed, and now they can have a role in helping to fund a permanent monu- ment to those Canadians who died dur- ing the mission. The Highway of Heroes LAV Monu- ment is a project based in Clarington but dedicated to all the 158 soldiers who died in Afghanistan and one sol- dier who died in Iraq. The LAV is a light armoured vehicle which will be situated in Clarington Fields with a view towards the Highway of Heroes. The monument will also tell the story of Trooper Darryl Caswell of Bowmanville, who was killed On June 11, 2007 when a roadside bomb detonated near the vehicle he was trav- elling in. Students visiting the monument will be able to enter a code on their phones or ipads and get an overview of Trooper Caswell’s life. The monument will be unveiled Sept. 24 at Clarington Fields but fundraising continues to help pay for it. Retired General Rick Hillier was in Oshawa June 2, attending a fundraiser for the monument, and noted this year is the 150th anniversary of the Oshawa- based Ontario Regiment. He applauded the use of the LAV as a monument, noting the machine is the “fighting vehicle of this past generation that went to war....you put what is really the symbol of the soldier out for people to see.” To donate to the monument through the Wounded Warriors Project, you can click on http://bit.ly/1sviTNy and choose Highway of Heroes Durham LAV Monument as the fund your dona- tion will support. To see a timeline of soldiers killed dur- ing the wars go to http://www.dipity. com/newsdurham/personal/. -- Metroland Media Group Ltd., Durham Region Division our opinion LAV monument a fitting tribute to Canadian soldiers who paid the ultimate sacrifice Real awe is harder to come by these days column One of the drawbacks to living in an information rich world is that we seldom get to be truly gobsmacked anymore. We can explain away almost everything we come into contact with. We generally don’t have to scratch our heads any longer than it takes to Google something. That’s good ... and bad. One of the things I’m afraid this bril- liantly and immediately informed gen- eration is losing is a sense of awe. Con- sider the mindset of the North Ameri- can Aboriginal upon seeing the first wave of armoured Spaniards approach- ing on horseback. Neither the horse nor metallurgy existed on the continent prior to that moment. Or the Mayan staring dumbfounded at the approach of Columbus’s massive ships. A sight that was so incomprehensible it has been posited that the native peoples could not actually see them. If you can get past the ensuing genocides each of those awe-inspiring moments herald- ed, you have to admit, they must have been absolutely mind-blowing. Some- thing akin to witnessing an alien space- ship landing in your backyard or Tony Danza reciting the periodic table. I don’t know when my mind was last blown. I remember watching the first man walk on the moon. That was definitely cool, but again, we’d been warmed up to it. We knew it was com- ing. Likewise with my first glimpse at a Playboy centerfold. Certainly life-alter- ing, but, if I’m being honest, I’d been thinking about that one for some time. Real awe is getting harder and harder to come by. We all carry around gadgets that let us talk to and see people halfway across the globe. I play Scrabble, in real- time, with people in Ukraine, for Pete’s sake. And none of this is in any way a big deal. If you think about it, it never real- ly was. We expected it. We are certain- ly delighted and even excited by all of these things ... but awed? No. I’m not even certain that if someone came up with a button on our phones that would render us invisible, we would be really, truly wigged out. We‘d simply be pissed at the wait-time to get our hands on it. Strangely enough, I’m beginning to understand that awe, perhaps, no longer resides in new, unexplainable things, but in things that have always been here. The immaculate perfection of a trillium-carpeted forest floor. The majesty of a thunderstorm. The intelli- gence that animates every single cell in my body. And so much more. The awe- some nature of this life has always sur- rounded us. We just need to stop now and then and look for it. -- Durham resident Neil Crone, actor, comic, writer, saves some of his best lines for this column neil crone Enter Laughing Agree? Disagree?

ON NOW AT THE BRICK! Braiden McClure, found stabbed in Oshawa Jeff Mitchell jmitchell@durhamregion.com OSHAWA -- Cops have issued another appeal for information as they continue to investigate the murder of a young man last week in Oshawa. Braiden McClure, 21, died hours after being found with stab wounds in a parking lot off Bloor Street, west of Simcoe Street, on June 1. So far, Durham police have released no suspect description. Police are attempting to reconstruct the last hours of Mr. McClure’s life and are ask- ing anyone with information to come for- ward. They’re seeking information on his whereabouts and activities on the night of his death, and in the days prior to the stab- bing. Police particularly want to know who he might have been in contact with prior to his death. A gravely injured Mr. McClure was found in the parking lot at about 10 p.m. June 1 by Durham police. Officers conduct- ed CPR until paramedics arrived and Mr. McClure was rushed to hospital. Later in the day June 2, police announced that Mr. McClure had succumbed to his injuries. His death prompted an outpouring of grief among friends, many of whom post- ed messages to Mr. McClure’s Facebook page. “Still can’t believe it,” read one. “Gone but never forgotten bro never.” “It’s unreal at the thought that you were taken in such a tragic way, the memories we have together are overflowing in my head,” read another. “You were always one of the realist people I knew, always holding it down, and so kind hearted, did whatever you could to make sure other people were alright before yourself, sipping on some cold ones for you my homie, I miss you so much, lots of love.” In another post a correspondent repre- senting Mr. McClure’s family asked people to forward pictures they may have of the young man. On the night of the stabbing Mr. McClure was wearing a red shirt, black shiny pants and red running shoes, police said. The investigation continues. Anyone with information is asked to call police at 905-579-1520, extension 5418 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477. Police issue another appeal for information in Durham murder Pickering manfaces murder charge in connection with Wasaga Beach stabbing death DURHAM -- Three people have been charged with second-degree murder in connection to the death of an 18-year- old Bolton man on the Victoria Day long weekend.

This investigation continues, and is being conducted under the direction of Detective Inspector Andy Raffay of the OPP Criminal Investigation Branch (CIB). Anyone with information is asked to contact Huronia West OPP at (705) 429- 3575 during normal business hours or after hours to the Provincial Communica- tion Centre at 1-888-310-1122, or to call Crimestoppers at 1-800-222-8477.

This 18 km segment forms part of the 150 km long high-speed interregional facility planned to be ultimately constructed on a separate right-of-way that parallels Highway 407 from Burlington to Highway 35/115,with stations,parking and access connections.This transitway is a component of the official plans of the stakeholder municipalities and of the Province’s commitment to support transit initiatives in the Greater Golden Horseshoe through the Metrolinx Regional Transportation Plan. THE PROCESS The environmental impact of this transit project will be assessed according to the transit project assessment process as prescribed in Ontario Regulation 231/08,Transit Projects and Metrolinx Undertakings.As part of the transit project assessment process,an Environmental Project Report (EPR)will be prepared.The Notice of Commencement for the Transit Project Assessment Process and release of the EPR will be published in this local newspaper in the future.All information produced as part of this project is available at www.407transitway.com. Members of the public,agencies and other interested parties are encouraged to participate actively in the transit project assessment process by attending consultation activities or contacting staff directly with information,comments or questions.A Public Information Centre (PIC)was held in April 2015.It presented information on past studies,need and justification,existing conditions,objectives,station sites and route alternatives,and the technically preferred station sites and route alternative to the public. PUBLIC INFORMATION CENTRE (PIC)#2 PIC #2 will be held in two different locations: Date:June 22,2016 Time:4:00 p.m.to 8:00 p.m. Location:Claremont Community Centre Lions Room 4941 Old Brock Road,Claremont,ON L1Y 1A9 Date:June 23,2016 Time:4:00 p.m.to 8:00 p.m. Location:Markham Museum Main Building 9350 Markham Road,Markham,ON L3P 3J3 PIC #2 will consist of an informal drop-in centre.The technically preferred route alignment and stations,impacts and mitigation measures will be presented at this PIC.MTO staff and their consultants will be on hand to answer any questions and to receive your input. COMMENTS We are interested in hearing any comments that you may have about this study.Comments and information regarding this study are being collected to assist the study team in meeting the requirements of the Environmental Assessment Act.Information will be collected in accordance with the Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act.With the exception of personal information,all comments will become part of the public record.If you would like to be added to our project mailing list or have project-related questions,please contact: Graham DeRose MTO Project Manager Ministry of Transportation,Central Region Planning &Design Section 159 Sir William Hearst Ave.,4th Floor,Toronto,ON M3M 0B7 tel:416-235-5255 fax:416-235-3578 e-mail:graham.derose@ontario.ca Khaled El-Dalati,P.Eng.

The temperature of the real estate market in Durham Region remains high. Durham Region Associa- tion of Realtors president San- dra O’Donohue reported 1,445 residential transactions in May. That’s an increase of 8.7 per cent compared to the same period last year. “There is no shortage of buy- ers in the market today,” Ms. O’Donohue said. “Home prices have shown strong year-over-year increas- es in the Durham Region,” she added. While homes are selling, she noted there was a drop in the number of listings in May. There were 1,790 new listings last month compared to 1,851 in May of last year and that represents a 3.4 per cent decrease. The average selling price in Durham reached $531,051 in May. That compares to the aver- age selling price of $449,837 dur- ing the same period last year. “The 15.3 per cent increase demonstrates a continual upward pressure in pricing,” Ms. O’Donohue noted. Not only are homes selling for more, they are also selling faster, she said, pointing out homes are selling in an average of 11 days compared to 15 days last year. “This is a healthy econom- ic indicator,” she added. “Dur- ham Region has poised substan- tial growth in prices and sales demonstrating strong demand dynamics.” 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 9 , 2 0 1 6 14 AP Can a Bowmanvillewomanchargedwithsaladdressingassaultbringyounewcustomers?

He sent a photo to butterfly gardener Dianne Pazaratz, who forwarded it on to Durham Region Field Naturalist friends for identification. Otto Peter promptly ID’d it as a cecro- pia, a giant silk moth, one of the biggest in North America with its six-inch wing- span. Truly one of the wonders of the moth kingdom. Its appearance heralds the approach- ing peak of moth season, as caterpillars munching on leaves of their host plants spin cocoons, pupate and then hatch out into a huge variety of scaled, winged creatures that flutter off into the summer night to mate. Most are much smaller than giant silk moths, tiny even, but may be every bit as beautiful, seen up close. It’s worth keeping a magnifying glass in your pocket to study any moth you come across, day or night, to begin to appreciate the vast variety, patterning and colour they display. I was overwhelmed, witnessing first- hand the dizzying numbers that one night in one neighbourhood can pro- duce. Sponsored by the Matt Holder Envi- ronmental Education Fund, experts are studying the moths of the Thickson’s Woods Nature Reserve in Whitby, lur- ing them in with ultraviolet lights and photographing them the next morning, before releasing them. Spectacular, nearly every other one! And positively mind-jumbling, trying to remember their names and patterns. Moths with green on them, for exam- ple, a tiny sampling of the 200 or so spe- cies found that one night last week. Pis- tachio emerald is unforgettable, its inch- wide spread wings a jade green dotted with two faint white lines and edged with copper. The wavy-lined emerald is paler green, and lacking the copper, but still a strik- ing moth. As are the blackberry looper, more blu- ish-green, with cream markings, and the slightly smaller but similarly shaped bad-wing, a more silvery blue-green. Labrador carpet, green leuconycta, black-dotted glyph, unicorn caterpil- lar moth ... green beauties every one. The green marvel is a favourite of moth man David Beadle, and no wonder. Intricate black markings set off blue- green blotches that make this triangu- lar-shaped moth look just like a patch of lichen -- so lovely a silk maker should replicate the design. David authored the Peterson Field Guide to Moths of Northeastern North America, handy for identifying the most common 1,500 moths you’re likely to come across. He’s already helped find 700 species in Durham’s Thickson’s Woods. For news about public moth nights, bat nights and latest research, go to www. mattholderfund.com .

The Great Outdoors Margaret Carney Moth season is on the way in Durham Police crackdown on commercial motor vehicles and distracted drivers DURHAM -- More than 400 traffic tick- ets were handed out in the month of May alone by Durham Regional Police as part of the Joint Service Enforcement Team (JSET). DRPS is working with the Ontario Pro- vincial Police and the Ministry of Trans- portation over six months to enhance roadway safety in Durham Region with a focus on enhancing safety of commercial motor vehicles and cracking down on dis- tracted drivers. Officers stopped 65 commercial motor vehicles last month and inspected 42. Twenty-four commercial motor vehicles were taken out of service and 72 charges were laid including one criminal charge. Police will also continue with a new cam- paign to enforce distracted driving laws. Fines for that offence increased in Septem- ber 2015 to $490 with three demerit points. Distracted driving has surpassed impaired driving as the leading cause of fatal collisions. As of May 27, 611 drivers have been charged as a result of distracted driving. 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 9 , 2 0 1 6 16 AP Save on these LOCAL DEALS atWagJag.com brought to you by your LOCAL MERCHANTS WAGJAG IS A PROUD MEMBER OF BUY ONLINE ANDSAVE$20 BUY ONLINE ANDSAVE$187 BUY ONLINE ANDSAVE$171 BUY ONLINE ANDSAVE$15 $20 FOR 2 TICKE TS TO SEE STAND UP COMEDY AT LIVE ACT THE ATRE (A $40 VALUE) $18 8 FOR A WEEK OF SUMMER HORSEBACK RIDING CAMP (A $375 VALUE) $99 FOR A FULL INTERIOR AUTO DE TAILING PACK AGE (A $270 VALUE) BUY ONLINEANDSAVE$121 BUY ONLINE ANDSAVE$49 $49 FOR DUCT CLE ANING FOR UP TO 10 SUPPLY AND RETURN V ENTS (A $170 VALUE) $55 FOR A HAIRCUT, COLOUR & ST Y LE IN OSH AWA (A $10 4 VALUE) BUY ONLINE ANDSAVE$71 $29 FOR $100 TOWARDS AUTOMOTIVE W INDOW TINTING IN OSHAWA BUY ONLINE ANDSAVE$10 $10 FOR $20 TOWARDS COMIC BOOK S AND OTHER MEMORA BILIA IN PICKERING BUY ONLINE ANDSAVE$235 $15 FOR $250 TO- WARDS A PAIR OF PRE- SCRIPTION GL A SSES OR SUNGL A SSES &A PAIR OF CLE AR CON- TACT LENSES BUY ONLINE ANDSAVE$11 $9 FOR T WO PA SSP ORT SAVINGS BOOK S FOR DURHAM REGION (A $20 VALUE) BUY ONLINE ANDSAVE$52 $15 FOR 1 ROUND OF MINI PUT T,3 ROUNDS AT THE BAT TING CAGE S, 1 L ARGE BUCKE T OF BALLS FOR THE DRIVING R ANGE A ND A NON- ALCOHOLIC BE V ER AGE $70 FOR 18 HOLES OF GOLF FOR 2 INCLUDING CA RT RENTA L AND 2 LBS OF WINGS (A $122 VALUE) BUY ONLINE ANDSAVE$50 BUY ONLINE ANDSAVEUPTO$131 $39 FOR A 90-MINUTE HYPNOSIS SESSION FOR SMOKING CE SSATION,WEIGHT LOSS A ND ANXIE T Y (A $160 VA LUE)-(2 DURHA M LOCATIONS) $109 FOR AN 8X8 F T.HE AV Y- DUT Y,POP-UP CANOPY 4 COLOURS TO CHOOSE FROM (A $24 0 VA LUE) BUY ONLINE ANDSAVE$60 $20 FOR A 1-MONTH OF K AR ATE TR AINING, LE ARN THE ART OF GOJU-RY U K AR ATE-DO (AN $80 VALUE) BUY ONLINE ANDSAVE$24.99 $25 FOR AN OIL CHANGE W ITH A 20-POINT INSPECTION AND FLUID TOP-UP IN OSHAWA (A $49.99 VALUE) BUY ONLINE ANDSAVE$167 $39 FOR 1-HOUR MA SS AGE AND CHIROPR ACTIC CARE PACK AGE (A $206 VALUE) BUY ONLINE ANDSAVE$91 $49 FOR A FURN ACE OR AIR CONDITIONER SA FE T Y MAINTENANCE AND TUNE-UP (A $14 0 VALUE) BUY ONLINE ANDSAVE$54 $55 FOR A COMPU TERIZED 4-WHEEL ALIGNMENT IN PICKERING (A $109 VALUE) BUY ONLINE ANDSAVE$40 $50 FOR A 60-MINUTE HUE SIGN ATURE FACIAL &A 45-MINUTE MA SSAGE A $90 VALUE) 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 9 , 2 0 1 6 18 AP 534 Rodd Avenue Pickering www.abbeylawnmanor.com 905-509-2582 Please Join Us On Saturday, June 11 For ROCK WITH AGES 11am - 3pm.

With the ageing of the population, this worrying situation is likely to increase as seniors represent the fastest growing demographic group in our society. One key tool is awareness. There are signs and symptoms which allow elder abuse to be detected. Watch for unexplained injuries, negligence or a loss of self-esteem. It sometimes happens that victims of abuse are timid, isolated and hesitant. When this occurs, perhaps, it’s time to investigate the situation. Elder abuse is any action or inaction which causes harm to an older person by a person in a position of trust. The abuser may be a family member, friend, neighbour, or someone providing personal care or professional services to an individual. Elder abuse includes: Physical harm: Pushing, Shaking, Hitting, Restraining, Over-medicating Elder abuse is wrong. It is a hidden problem not often talked about and may not be easily recognized. The following are possible signs of abuse or neglect: signs of Physical abuse: Unexplained cuts, bites, bruises, burns, or fractures signs of emotional abuse: Withdrawal, Depression, Anxiety, Fear of family members, friends, or caregivers signs of neglect: Poor hygiene, Inappropriate or inadequate clothing, Unhealthy appearance No matter where you live in Canada you can always consult www.seniors.gc.ca. This organization, whose mission is to curtail abuse and violence against older adults, offers information for seniors. Another option is to call one of the help lines supported by Health Canada. These help lines consist of a telephone service giving free and confidential support, information and referrals to older adults who are victims of psychological, financial or physical abuse. A kit, created to help prevent elder abuse including a selection of the tools available across Canada, could be available to organizations and seniors. What is Elder Abuse? How Can You Recognize Elder Abuse? according to statistics, it is estimated that 15% of canadian seniors find themselves in situations involving abuse, violence or neglect.

ESSENTIALS SERVICEBIKES BRANDS WE CARRY Advertising Feature FOCUS ON BUSINESS PickeringAjax/ The warm weather is finally arriving here in Durham Region and it looks like it’s here to stay. At Northern Cycle, they have seen traffic in the shop pick up dramatically. Lots of new bikes have been rolling out the door, and if you are in the market for a new one, there’s an incredible selection here. When shopping for a bike, don’t forget the accessories. Acces- sories can not only help keep you safe out on the road, but can help make your ride more enjoyable. Bells are a popular item, as legally you have to have one on your bike. They are great for warning walkers on the trail that you are coming up behind them. As a safety precaution, it’s always a good idea to slow down when approaching from behind as it can be very startling to have cyclists come up behind you. The summer’s heat can dehydrate you quickly. With a water bottle and cage, you can make sure that you stay hydrated during your ride. A pannier rack on the back of your bike is a great idea, as you can attach a top bag, a grocery bag or an actual pannier bag, depending on your needs. Keeping track of your rides is easy with one of the computer and GPS options that are now available. Northern Cycle just received a GPS model from Bryton starting at only $119.99. To keep your riding clothes free from the mud stripe, think about adding fenders to your bike. The fenders will keep the mud off of you when you are riding in wet weather. When riding on the road, it’s essential to know what’s around you. Mirrors are a great idea if you are riding on the road a lot. At Northern Cycle, you will find a selection of handlebar mirrors, eye- wear mirrors and helmet mirrors. They also have a great selection of reasonably priced sunglasses from Ryders and Suncloud in stock to keep the road dust and bugs out of your eyes. In addition to these great accessories, Northern Cycle offers many more items that you can use to help enjoy your cycling experi- ence, such as baskets, pumps, patch kits, seat bags, kickstands and more. Visit Northern Cycle for all of these and more cycling acces- sories. Northern Cycle is located at 889 Westney Road South (just west of Monarch).

And while Fort McMurray is no longer in immediate danger, tens of thousands of people remain displaced and have had their lives turned upside down. Canadians have responded in a big way to help -- and Durham Region is doing its part with a day of music on June 12. “The Friends of Fort McMurray Music Marathon will raise money for the fire evacuees,” says Oshawa resident and Oshawa Opera founder Kristine Danda- vino. “With the support of the City of Oshawa and City council, Ron Moore, Jason Williams and I have recruited the help of our friends in the music industry from across Ontario. “Mayor John Henry will be opening the concert with words of welcome and the Salvation Army will be on site to collect cash donations on a pay-what-you-can basis.” She says the performers are donating their time for the event and the City of Oshawa has waived all rental costs for the fundraiser. Dandavino says the “all-genres music marathon” features gospel, coun- try, rock, pop, r and b and barbershop music, plus musical theatre, with art- ists coming from Toronto, Ottawa and, of course, Durham to take the stage in Oshawa’s Memorial Park from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. The lineup is still taking shape and Ajax’s Quinn Mills along with Oshawa’s Annie Foy were recently added. Other Durham performers are The Mac’s from Oshawa, former long-time Ajax resi- dents, Ron “Elvis” Moore of Whitby, Steve and Amanda, Artemis Chartier and Dale Russell and Kalista Wilson of Oshawa. Also coming to Oshawa are classical crossover soprano Alessandra Paonessa and the Paris Black Band from Toronto and Ottawa soprano Stephanie Piercey. Memorial Park is at Simcoe and John streets. Ryan Pfeiffer / Metroland DURHAM -- Ajax musician Quinn Mills, who is releasing a single on July 1, is signed up for the day of music to benefit Alberta fire evacuees. flyers.coupons.shopping lists.

You buy it because you love it -- and then you find out who the artist is. The LivingRoom Community Art Stu- dio’s 3rd annual Little Art, BIG Differ- ence Secret Art Sale is June 16. The registered, non-profit event fea- tures more than 100 small works of art, each of which will be sold for $75. The makers are known and emerging artists, including Jorge Molina, Chalda Maloff, Pete Smith, Dani Crosby, Sean McQuay, Margaret Rodgers and Peter Martin. “The LivingRoom Community Art Studio was created so that everyone -- including those most marginalized -- could have access to making and shar- ing art,” states Mary Krohnert, executive director and Oshawa resident, in a press release. “For many, the LivingRoom is the only space where they feel they can be them- selves and share who they are through art. People tell us all the time that mak- ing art here has changed their lives for the better. All of the money raised from the sale pays the rent for the studio, located at 149 Simcoe St. S., Oshawa. The sale is in the Trent University Atri- um, 55 Thornton Rd. S., Oshawa. The doors open at 6:30 p.m. and the sale starts at 7:30 p.m. The pieces are sold on a first-come, first-served basis. A list of the participating artists is avail- able online at www.livingroomcommu- nityartstudio.org and at the venue start- ing on June 13. Introduced this year is the Beat the Bedlam round for those who want to ensure they get the piece they love. The first five art picks will be auctioned off before the $75 scramble starts. The first overall pick has a starting bid of $200, the second $175, the third $150, the fourth $125 and the fifth $100. The highest bid- der for each gets to choose any piece of art. Ryan Pfeiffer / Metroland OSHAWA -- Mary Krohnert, executive director of The LivingRoom Community Art Studio, showed some of the art that will be on sale at its 3rd annual Secret Art Sale. In my travels I have always made it a point to visit lesser known wine areas. While I have many favourites, there are some that stand out! Much of Brazil is tropical/semi-tropical but the areas of Rio Grande do Sul (Valle de Vinehdos) and Santa Catarina get cool enough to have snow. Their Merlot, Caber- net and Chardonnay can challenge the best anywhere. One of my favourite wine countries is Cyprus. Wine is so part of its history that it has the oldest active wine brand called Commandaria dating back to the time of Richard the Lionheart. From the ancient port of Limassol to the Troodos Mountains, wine, scenery and history intermingle. Add to that indigenous grapes, Maratheftiko (red) and Xynisteri (white), plus Cypriot cuisine and discovery takes on a complete- ly new term. Not far from Cyprus lies the historic island of Malta. Known for its heroic exploits in its victory over the Ottoman Turks in 1565 and its stand against Nazi air power in the Sec- ond World War, it now offers scenic beauty and superb dining experiences. For the oenophile, there are several win- eries producing wines from ancient indige- nous grapes Gellewza (red) and Ghirgenti- na (white) as well as international varieties. One of the wineries, Meridiana, has con- nections with the Antonari wine family and produces a very fine Syrah. I’ve visited Portugal six times in recent years, traveling to almost every wine region from the Douro to Alentejo. More people should know that it produces wine other than Port. Regional wines each reflect the terroir and match their local food so very well. I remember visiting a winery in Alente- jo called Malhadina Nova and savouring every bite and sip of the slow-cooked black pig and wine. Hardly anyone knows that the Portu- guese Azores Islands produce wine. These enchanting volcanic isles are a challenge to the wine lover since wineries are scattered throughout the island chain but the wine made is serious. The island of Pico is quite famous for its unique vineyards and fine wine as well as being classed as a World Heritage Site. Nova Scotia produces wine from tra- ditional and hybrid grapes. Nova Scotia took its hybrid varieties such as Marechal Foch, Acadie Blanc and Seyval Blanc seri- ously and wineries such as Grand Pre near Wolfville produce first-rate wine. The above is but a small fraction of the fine wine that is being made worldwide. Search it out.

Santiago came away with gold medals in all three of her individual events in the senior girls’ division, but it’s the diver- sity of those events that amazes Sharpe, a former Olympian who runs the Speed Academy club in Pickering. Santiago, representing Notre Dame Catholic Secondary School, won the marquee event, the 100-metre dash, and also the 400m run and 400m hurdles. The combination of flat-out speed, shown in the 100m, and the endurance needed to win the 400m hurdles has left her coach in awe. “She’s a special kind of talent,” said Sharpe. “You don’t get that combination often.” Her future is bright no matter what events she chooses to focus on but the 400m hurdles is likely the one that will take her the furthest, both coach and athlete agree. She won the 100m and 400m runs by the slightest of margins, and the 400m hurdles more comfortably, in a time of 59.49 seconds, just over a second shy of the meet record set by Oshawa’s Mariam Abdul-Rashid two years earlier. Santiago, 16, has already won a sil- ver medal in the 400m hurdles at the world youth championships and hopes to compete in that event this summer at the world junior championships in Poland. With a maximum of three individual events allowed at OFSAA, she had been training mostly for the 400m hurdles, and decided upon the 100m and 400m runs over the 200m for a couple of rea- sons. “I chose the 100 over the 200 just because of scheduling around the 400- metre hurdles, and also the 400 is more of a new event for me that I haven’t run too many times, so I thought that would be exciting,” she explained. “I wanted to run the 100 because last year at OFSAA I won in that event and I wanted to keep up the record.” Santiago won the 400m run in a time of 54.25, a mere 0.13 seconds ahead of Brampton’s Natassha McDonald, and then less than an hour later defeated McDonald again in the 100m, after their times were broken down to 11.891 and 11.893 respectively. With another year of high school remaining, Santiago is certain to have have more OFSAA magic in her a year from now, and NCAA schools knock- ing on her door soon with scholarship offers. Beyond that, the Olympics are the ultimate goal. “It’s definitely my goal to go to a school in the States after high school,” said San- tiago, an honour-roll student. “It’s defi- nitely one of my dreams to attend (the Olympics), hopefully the 2020 Games.” Sharpe says Santiago is nearly at the Olympic standard now in the 400m hur- dles, but a more patient approach than gunning for Rio will serve her better in the long term. He said it will ultimately be up to her NCAA coaches to determine which event or events to focus upon. “She’s a real pleasure to coach,” Sharpe said. “Our organization is not just focused on making kids run fast, but we’re trying to develop some good citi- zens in the community down the road with quality careers.” For more OFSAA results, see page 38 SP O R T S Eating and drinking before exercise What you eat and drink before any sports event should leave you feeling comfortable and confident to perform at your best, while avoiding either hun- ger or gut discomfort. Important for many endurance sports is to have adequate fuel in the form of carbohydrate stores in the muscles and liver. The normal overnight fast will lower carbohydrate stores, which can reduce performance. Eating a carbohydrate-rich meal or snack before sport will top up muscle glycogen stores and maintain normal blood glucose levels, enhancing both physical and mental performance. Dehydration in sport can reduce both pleasure and performance, espe- cially in hot conditions. In most situ- ations, sweat loss during exercise is much greater than the amount of fluid an athlete can replace during a session. Start an exercise session well-hydrat- ed to minimize the fluid deficit. The pre-event meal, snack and fluids should: • Be easy to digest; • Be rich in carbohydrates; • Be low in fat; • Provide adequate amounts of flu- ids; • Include foods and fluids that are familiar and enjoyable. The pre-event meal should be con- sumed 2-4 hours before competition. Allow enough time for the meal to be emptied from the stomach, including extra time for the delayed emptying that comes with pre-event nerves. It is important to get the right balance of gut comfort — neither being too full at the start of exercise nor hungry late in the session. For morning events, schedule break- fast 2-3 hours before the start time. In cases of early morning start times, have a larger supper the night before and a lighter snack, 1-2 hours before the event. Those competing later in the day may choose to eat their normal meals in the earlier part of the day and then have a light snack 1-2 hours prior to the event. There is no perfect pre-exercise meal or snack. What you choose may depend on your individual goals. Trial meal and snack choices, as well as timing, before competition day. This can help you determine what works best for you.

Xahria Santiago of Notre Dame Catho- lic Secondary School and Anna Wither- spoon of Pickering High School led the way by winning three gold each, San- tiago in the senior girls’ 100m, 400m, and 400m hurdles and Witherspoon in the midget girls’ 200m, 80m hurdles and 300m hurdles. Witherspoon’s performance was fol- lowed closely by her friend and Durham Legion club teammate Shaleah Colaire of Pickering’s St. Mary Catholic Second- ary School, who won three silver, in the 400m midget girls’ run and both hurdles events. Thanks in large part to those individu- al efforts, Pickering and St. Mary finished one-two in the team standings in the midget girls’ division, while Notre Dame was second in both the senior girls’ and overall girls’ standings.

That’s something the Ironheads would likely take at this point, if not be happy about it. The two Durham-based teams met for the first time this season June 2 in Bowmanville, where the Green Gaels pro- duced an 11-5 win in their first meet- ing since last year’s playoff sweep for the Gaels. With both teams in action Wednesday, June 8, it appears the Green Gaels (13-1) are in good shape to finish first in the East- ern Conference, as they did last year, while the Ironheads (5-9) will once again be fighting for one of the final playoff berths. The Gaels went into Wednesday’s game in Mississauga four points back of first- place Akweasasne but with four games in hand. They were coming off an impressive 13-6 win June 4 in Halton Hills over the Bull- dogs (13-2-1), another team in the hunt for first. Matt Shand had a hat trick and Jeff Fer- nandes six points as the Gaels overcame an early 3-0 deficit and out-scored the Bulldogs 10-2 over the final two periods. At home against the Ironheads, Fer- nandes and Jeremy McWatters had five points each, including four goals by McWatters, as the Gaels held period leads of 4-1 and 8-2 before an even third. Aidan Conlon led the Ironheads with a pair of goals. The Ironheads then split a weekend road trip, losing 11-9 to Akwesasne before beat- ing Kahnawake 10-6. Conlon had three goals and five points in the victory and five goals in defeat, while Jake Gilmour and Mike Berger also had big weekends with eight points apiece over the two games. The Ironheads hosted the Newmarket Saints last night at the Ajax Community Centre, while the Green Gaels welcome Halton Hills to the Garnet Rickard Recre- ation Complex Thursday, June 9, both key games. Justin Greaves / Metroland CLARINGTON -- Green Gaels’ Tyler Eames scored on Ironheads goalie Chris Steele in Jr. B lacrosse action at the Garnet Rickard Recreation Complex last Thursday. The Green Gaels won 11-5. Ironheads could be headed for another playoff clash with Gaels DURHAM — The 10th running of the Oak Ridges Moraine Adventure Relay will make its way through Durham Region on Saturday, June 11. The unique race annually engages over 400 canoeists, runners and trail cyclists cov- ering 160 kilometres of beautiful Oak Ridges Moraine trail. Proceeds from team entries and sponsor- ships go towards improved signage, parking lots, boardwalks and maintenance equip- ment used to keep the trail clear and safe for all users. Teams of up to 15 will paddle, bike and run across the Oak Ridges Moraine Trail from Rice Lake north of Cobourg to the Country Day School in King City, with spirited start and finish line celebrations, as well as com- memorations at each checkpoint in honour of the Relay’s 10th anniversary. This year’s race welcomes many returning teams eager to better their 2015 performanc- es, and many newcomers who are taking on the Moraine challenge for the first time. Visit www.oakridgestrail.org/adventure- relay for more information. Oak Ridges Moraine relay making way through Durham Saturday Cory Joseph’s dad, David, part of new CanPro Camps venture Brian McNair bmcnair@durhamregion.com AJAX — David Joseph admits he didn’t see success coming to the Toronto Rap- tors quite so quickly, even if he has rooting interest beyond most. Joseph’s bias would come from the fact he is the father of Raptors guard Cory Joseph of Pickering, who had a tremen- dous first season with Canada’s lone NBA team. But, while he knew his 24-year-old youngest son was joining a team on the rise, he didn’t quite anticipate a trip to the league’s final four this year, let alone tak- ing two games from LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers in the Eastern Confer- ence final. David Joseph, or DJ as he’s better known in basketball circles, does however rec- ognize the importance the Raptors have had on both his sons — 26-year-old Devoe played pro last season in Montenegro — since the team joined the NBA in 1995. “The Raptors in Toronto, having an NBA team in your city, the kids can see the dream right in front of their eyes,” Joseph explained. “Basketball, I wouldn’t say it’s quite as big as hockey yet, but it’s getting up there. It’s moving fast.” Joseph has joined forces with local coaches Mike Gordensky and Ron Parfitt to try to take advantage of that growth, opening Canpro Camps, which offers bas- ketball instruction to local youth. Gordensky is the current coach of both the senior boys’ and girls’ basketball teams at Pickering High School, a program that was built in large part by Parfitt, who is considered one of the best fundamental teachers of the game in Ontario. In Parfitt’s final year as senior boys’ coach, he led a Trojans team that includ- ed both Joseph brothers to an OFSAA title, and the team then repeated under Gor- densky the following year. One of the benefits of having such con- nected and knowledgeable coaches is get- ting access to prominent guest instruc- tors, similar to last year when Cory Joseph returned to his old digs at Pickering High to help out with a camp. Tristan Thompson of the Cavaliers, a Toronto native who went to the Findlay Prep school with Joseph in Nevada, also answered the bell and helped out at a camp at Humber College last year. “They’re just great. They stay all day, coach the whole day, hang out with the kids, taking pictures and stuff,” David Joseph said when asked how the NBA stars interact. “They’re just great with the kids.” Although access to top-level Canadian talent this summer will be more challeng- ing thanks to Olympic qualifying and per- haps the Olympics as well, guest appear- ances are common at the camps. See canprocamps.com for more informa- tion, including a June 11-12 camp at Sen- eca College where registration is available at the door. 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 9 , 2 0 1 6 40 AP Uxbridge The UPS Store 2 Campbell Drive Bowmanville The UPS Store 91 King St.E.

Having already played and beaten many of the top teams in the east, and with the nationals divided into east and west tour- naments, the Durham team decided this year to compete in Calgary at the western nationals. After defeating two Alberta teams and one from British Columbia in straight sets on the first day, the Attack went into the power pool round for day two and again swept all three matches, but the first, against B.C.’s Fraser Valley, did not come easily, 26-24 and 25-18. The Attack advanced from there to the semifinals against the top team from Man- itoba, WinMan Clutch, whom they defeat- ed 25-20 and 25-15. The final pitted the Attack, the top team from Ontario, against Edmonton’s Nooks Blue, the top team from Alberta, and the match did not disappoint, with Durham tak- ing gold after tight wins of 28-26 and 25-23. Isaac Northcott was named the tourna- ment’s most valuable player and was also an all-star along with Attack teammates Trystan Morris-Fraser and Amit Sayal. At a recent banquet, Liam Cameron was recognized with the OVA award of excel- lence, Justin Lui with the Durham Attack award of excellence and Adriano Galbiati with the Durham Attack leadership award. Jaylen Franklin, Mathew Ganzhorn, Matthew Lee and Andy Sabri rounded out the championship squad, which was coached by Mike Slean, Ian Eibbitt and Nikos Chalaris. Golden sweep for Attack Black Justin Greaves / Metroland Monarchs finish fourth at OFSAA WHITBY -- Gillian Panuncialman, left, and Emily Cirone of the St. Mary Monarchs held the LOSSA soccer championship trophy after defeating the Dunbarton Spartans 2-0. The Monarchs went on to have a nice run at the OFSAA AAA provincial champion- ship, winning their first five games before dropping a 2-1 semifinal heartbreaker in penalty kicks to eventual gold-medallist Cardinal Newman of Hamilton, and then a 2-0 decision to Grand River in the bronze medal match. 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 9 , 2 0 1 6 42 AP du r h a m r e g i o n . c o m Ne w s A d v e r t i s e r • Ju n e 9 , 2 0 1 6 43 AP At triOS, you will benefit from: Half Day Classes Internships Focused Learning – one course at a time Small Class Sizes Lifelong Career Assistance Call: 1-866-496-4031 | www.triOSdurham.com Start a Rewarding Career in: Business, Technology, Healthcare, Law, Supply Chain.
