PICKERING -- It’s that time of year again when
Pickering resident Gail Snyders and her vol-
unteers work tirelessly to raise funds for breast
cancer-related equipment.
The breast cancer survivor and founder of
the Bevy of Hope Breast Cancer Foundation
has, since 1997, been putting together various
themed baskets with the help of donors and
volunteers and raffling those items off to help
local hospitals purchase equipment.
She spends the month of October going from
location to location, selling tickets for the Bevy
of Baskets at $2 a piece or three for $5 for the
draws that will be held in November. And she
is one busy woman. “By the end of October, I’m
wiped out,” Mrs. Snyders said.

Now in its fourth year,
the competition is the
largest celebration of
senior talent in the
country and is open
to Canadian residents
over the age of 65.
Gardner took top
honours in the Durham Regional Competition
held at the Pickering Town Centre after advancing
from his first place finish in the preliminary
Oshawa audition, held at the Centennial
Retirement Residence. Barry will now compete
against nine other performers from across Canada
in the historic Concert Hall at The Carlu in Toronto
on October 18th.
Gardner’s quiet confidence and cool demeanor belie
his vocal talent. His smooth tones and exceptional
phrasing make standards sound fresh and he gives
each song his signature touch without spoiling
the original.
Gardner is no stranger to performing. He has
taken part in the Canadian Multicultural Radio’s
Star Search, the Ken Sobel Amateur Hour, and
countless other community events through
the years.
After seeing the advertisement inviting contestants
to register for Chartwell’s Senior Star competition,
Gardner felt compelled to audition. A decision
he is thankful for today!
As he prepares to compete in the finals, check
out Barry’s performances online on Youtube or
at his MySpace page.

‘Jane Doe’ was on
tapes seized from
Durham man’s home
JEFF MITCHELL
jmitchell@durhamregion.com
OSHAWA -- Almost four-and-a-half years
after his arrest for sex offences against chil-
dren, Michael Ross Stratton on Monday
suddenly divulged a piece of information he
had steadfastly refused to provide to police:
the identity of a seven-year-old girl he sexu-
ally molested while training a video camera
on her.
The remarkable moment came as Mr.
Stratton, 43, was testifying in his own
defence at a hearing to determine if he’ll be
declared a dangerous offender. During an
exchange with Crown prosecutor Kent Sali-
wonchyk, Mr. Stratton -- who spent the day
giving rambling, convoluted testimony --
was stopped short when he was questioned
about statements he’s made to police and
psychologists since his arrest in June of
2006.
Mr. Saliwonchyk asked Mr. Stratton if he’d
told a psychologist the so-called Jane Doe
was seven years old. Mr. Stratton agreed.
“Who is she?” Mr. Saliwonchyk suddenly
asked.
The heavy-set Mr. Stratton, his long hair
pulled back in a pony tail, fell silent, a thin
smile on his face, and exhaled.
“I guess I gotta answer. I’m on the stand,”
he said.
Then he grinned at Durham police Detec-
tive Randy Norton, who arrested him in
2006.
“There you go, detective,” Mr. Stratton
said, “you can find out who Jane Doe is.”
He then described the girl as the daughter
of a friend’s girlfriend.
“Her name was -- oh -- um, -------, I think,”
he said.
Mr. Stratton has pleaded guilty to sexu-
al offences against nine victims, eight of
whom police have identified. Jane Doe was
the ninth. Although she was among the girls
seen being victimized on tapes seized from
Mr. Stratton’s Whitby home at the time of
the arrest, police had not been able to iden-
tify her and Mr. Stratton had kept her iden-
tity to himself.
The Crown has applied to have Mr. Strat-
ton declared a dangerous offender, a desig-
nation that carries an indeterminate pris-
on sentence. Mr. Stratton is fighting the
application and took the stand Monday to
refute evidence from four Crown witnesses,
women who claimed to have been subject-
ed to physical and sexual abuse at Mr. Strat-
ton’s hands in the past. A publication ban
protects victims’ identities.
Under questioning by defence lawyer
Alan Risen, Mr. Stratton provided his ver-
sion of events described by the witness-
es, often smiling and making asides before
launching into extended descriptions of
happenings, complete with dialogue from
people he was describing and minutia such
as items he bought at a convenience store
prior to an alleged assault.
At times, Mr. Stratton got so wrapped up
in his recollections, he had to be reminded
of the original question.
When he was cross examined by Mr. Sali-
wonchyk, Mr. Stratton agreed he hadn’t
been entirely truthful with police after his
arrest.
“A few hours before (the arrest), there
were a bunch of people at my house smok-
ing crack and then the SWAT team shows
up,” he said.
“I’m thinking, I’ve got all this child porn in
my house. I’m in a lot of trouble.
“You’re right,” Mr. Stratton said. “I was
lying.”
The hearing, before Ontario Court Justice
Paul Bellfontaine, continues next week.

AJAX -- More than 100 people attended
each of the recent ward debates in south Ajax
where community topics were hotly debat-
ed.
Participating in the Ward 3 debate at Lake-
side Public School on Sept. 29 were local
councillor candidates Joanne Dies, Marsha
Jones Dooley and Terry Knox. In Ward 4, it
was Pat Brown, Lisa Patel and Lynda Everson
at Southwood Park Public School on Sept. 30.
Regional candidates Colleen Jordan and Kim
Dowds participated in both debates.
The most emotional response came from
Coun. Jordan, the incumbent Regional coun-
cillor, when Gordon Kerr, who has run sev-
eral companies that owned the steam plant
and now works as consultant for the current
owners, asked about the Town’s dedication
to jobs given that the steam plant is not oper-
ating now. He blamed council for the situa-
tion.
Coun. Jordan yelled her response.
“I question why you come out here when
people in this community have found this
facility has been a disgrace for many years,”
she said.
The Town and Mr. Kerr are currently
embroiled in a lawsuit.
But that wasn’t the only fireworks.
Ms. Dooley came out swinging, targeting
Coun. Dies, the incumbent and her record
of supporting the mayor. “The incumbent is
a merely a rubber stamp for the mayor,” Ms.
Dooley said.
She also criticized the construction costs
for St. Francis and the outdoor pool where
the Town’s costs were much higher than orig-
inally estimated.
Coun. Dies got in her punches later when
she questioned Ms. Dooley’s “spending that
makes sense” slogan. “I’d like to know how
you’re going to keep taxes down if you’re
going to build a soccer dome or a centre for
seniors,” said Coun. Dies.
Ms. Dooley responded that there could
be more services offered to seniors at the St.
Andrew’s community centre.
Jobs were an issue at both debates.
When criticized about Ajax’s industrial tax
rate, Coun. Jordan said it was quality of life,
not just low taxes, that attract business, point-
ing to depressed areas of the U.S. with low tax
rates.
But Ms. Dowds rebutted that Ajax shouldn’t
be comparing itself to the U.S. “We need to be
comparing ourselves to the rest of the GTA,”
she said, adding it might be time to start offer-
ing businesses incentives to locate in Ajax.
“There is a perception Ajax has been a lit-
tle tough on business people,” said Mr. Knox,
adding he’s not sure if that perception is true.
“That perception has to go.”
Mr. Knox said Ajax has to market itself bet-
ter.
Lisa Patel also stressed marketing at the
Ward 4 debate and expressed concerns about
the number of people who commute out-
side of Ajax to work. “As a director of the Ajax-
Pickering Board of Trade, I’ve actually got-
ten to work in the business community,” she
said.
She too supported incentives.
At the Ward 4 debate, a $19,000 retreat at
the beginning of council’s term was brought
up. Coun. Brown said councillors were work-
ing on the Town’s strategic plan. “You focus
so much when you go away because you
concentrate on business,” she said.
Ms. Dowds countered that at the very least,
council could have supported a Durham
business or even used Town facilities.
“I would rather see we used our own spaces
for that,” she said.
Community safety was also a hot topic.
On crime, Coun. Brown stressed the impor-
tance of calling police since police use statis-
tics to allocate resources. “You have to call, no
matter how small it is,” she said.
Ms. Everson called for more front-line polic-
ing and partnerships to engage youth.
“I think we’re all aware of the increasing
crime and it’s becoming a huge concern,” she
said.

ELECTION 2010
Sparks fly as Ajax ward 3, 4 debates get heated
DEVELOPMENT
Pickering airport issue
of concern to all in area
To the editor:
With respect to the Kristen Calis story on
the mayoral debate held in Pickering, she
has surprisingly left out the proposed fed-
eral airport issue.
It was one of the first questions posed
to the candidates and the responses from
them were of great concern to everyone
in attendance and all of Pickering in gen-
eral. By leaving this particular issue out of
her article, Ms. Calis has shown bias in her
reporting by implying that it is not an issue
for south Pickering residents.
The candidate’s response to the ques-
tion is crucial to those wishing to make an
informed choice in the upcoming election,
whether or not they are able to attend a live
meeting.
During the upcoming all-candidates’
meeting in Claremont, the issue will sure-
ly be raised and no doubt reported, but
excluding it from this article implies that it
is only an issue to those living on or adja-
cent to the actual site. The proposed air-
port site is only kilometres from City Hall,
and its development will have a direct
impact on the quality of life of those of us
living and working downwind and down-
stream of the site.

Dogs and people need a
fence at off-leash park
To the editor:
Re: ‘Ajax needs to take another look at off-
leash parks’, letter to the editor, News Adver-
tiser, Sept. 29, 2010.
I was pleased to see the letter sent by Val
Marshall regarding the Westney Road off-
leash dog park.
There is no doubt that the park requires
a fence blocking it from Westney Road.
The Town (being forward thinkers) has
attempted to create a “natural” fence with
shrubs and brush. In theory that is a great
idea, however, for eight months of the year,
the brush is not vibrant and there is essen-
tially zero barrier between the dogs and
the road.
I have personally seen many dogs run out
to the road (including my own).
This not only endangers dogs but also
drivers and vehicles and can be uncom-
fortable for people passing by on the side-
walk who may have a fear of dogs. Why
wait until someone is hurt?
I asked this question of Ward 3 Council-
lor Joanne Dies after my dog ran onto the
road.
Ms. Dies quickly responded and sent a
Town representative to meet me to assess
the park, who then put together a propos-
al. I followed up and was assured the fence
would be in the 2011 budget. Given the
upcoming election, this might be worth
considering.

POLITICS
Enough: no insurance
for retired politicians
To the editor:
Re: Durham councillors push again for
retiree benefits.
Region staff says ‘no’, but some council-
lors want the Region to take yet another
look at retired politicians, out-of-office
politicians or defeated politicians (that’s a
lot of politicians) being able to buy group
benefits through the Region’s insurance
carrier, even though they are not currently
employed by the Region.
The councillors argue it will not cost the
taxpayer anything as the cost will be paid
by the person buying the benefit package.
What are these guys thinking? The aver-
age worker could not go back to his previ-
ous employer and ask for insurance cov-
erage, he would be thrown out the door
along with quite a few nasty words. Some
councillors think they have perpetual enti-
tlement at the public trough. Most of the
politicians
I know like their job, they are proud to
serve the public, at great personal expense,
I might add, but I think most people would
agree the optics on this are terrible. If this
was allowed, past employees could make
the same request.
If more insurance is needed, let them buy
private like the rest of us. They need a real-
ity check.
Some of these politicians are legends in
their own minds.

Transit projects today prepare Durham for tomorrow
Regional and Ontario government offi-
cials cut the ribbon on the future of tran-
sit in Durham Region this week.
Provincial Transportation Minister
Kathleen Wynne was on hand in Ajax with
municipal and Durham politicians to
symbolically start work on a 3,400-square-
metre Durham Region Transit mainte-
nance facility, the first phase of a long-
term initiative to promote transit as a
viable transportation option for residents
from Pickering to Clarington.
Durham officials have gone through
several stops and starts over the years to
create a seamless mass transit system for
residents to commute within the region
and to Toronto for work or school.
This partnership, described by Minis-
ter Wynne as “a culture shift,” is aimed at
reducing our collective reliance on auto-
mobiles to carry us hither and yon. State-
of-the-art maintenance facilities will be
needed to ensure that a rapid bus line
meets its objectives and carries a large
volume of passengers efficiently and safe-
ly.
And Durham continues to grow, its
municipalities a lure to Torontonians
seeking a slightly slower pace, larger
properties and a high level of municipal
service.
Durham officials project another
600,000 people will call the region home
in the next several years. That influx of
new residents will require, particularly in
Durham’s urban areas, higher develop-
ment densities along transit routes. An
efficient, seamless and responsive mass
transit system must be in place to provide
transportation to jobs and schools and
neighbourhoods throughout Durham
and into existing transit connections in
Toronto.
The Ajax facility is the first being built as
part of the long-term vision; DRT officials
are already seeking requests for propos-
als for a similar facility in Oshawa to serve
the eastern portion of Durham and sup-
port the overall system.
That underscores the culture shift the
minister referred to in her remarks this
week at the ribbon-cutting ceremony.
Mass transit moves much greater vol-
umes of people at much less cost to the
environment, road networks and highway
upkeep costs.
The moves being taken today will help
Durham meet the future with a working
system that is established and meets the
needs of residents.
There is much work yet to be done, to
be sure, but the first important steps have
been taken.
If Durham is to provide better, more
efficient and wide-reaching transit ser-
vices to a growing population in the com-
ing years, it must move today so it can be
ready for tomorrow.

SPIRALING PROPERTY TAXES
“Local business owners support Maurice BRENNER. He
knows property taxes are high and has an economic plan
to reduce the residential tax burden by being competitive,
attracting new business, creating real sustainable jobs,
supporting existing businesses and increasing effi ciencies
at city hall.”
A Strong Community
Voice for 25 Years
On October 25th
Elect a mayor you can trust
to engage you, listen to you
and support you.
ELECT Maurice BRENNER,
YOUR NEXT MAYOR
Experience • Leadership • Involvement
On October 25th Elect Maurice Brenner, MayorBrennerMaurice
YOUR NEXT MAYOR
Elect ✔
“Being a Mayor is more than just good news
stories, it’s about listening, understanding the
issues and being prepared to do something
about it. Pickering is a beautiful community but
we can be a better community. We need change
and we need to make this change together.
I will not take a back seat when it comes to
Pickering and what is important to you!”
COMMUNITY SAFETY A PRIORITY
“Maurice Brenner was my Councillor for 21 years. He is
a strong supporter for the police and the community and
Community Safety is a priority. As your mayor, he will
continue to work with the police and community and be
pro-active . Maurice Brenner will listen to you and work
on your behalf.”
Al Olsen - Past President Toronto Police Association,
Current President Police Retirees of Ontario
URBAN SPRAWL AND DESTRUCTION
OF AGRICULTURAL LANDS
“Building on watershed and prime agricultural land in
northeast Pickering will have catastrophic consequences.”
Sierra Club Toronto Star June 2nd 2010
“Mayor Ryan was very much behind this and to the best
of my knowledge still supports this.”
Ajax Mayor Steve Parish - Metroland June 9th 2010
As your next mayor, Maurice
Brenner will protect these
lands for today and for
future generations.
ENVIRONMENT FIRST
“Maurice Brenner puts the environment fi rst. His efforts
helped save the Altona Forest, and Pine Grove Forest
from developers. He led the battle against landfi ll that
closed the Brock West Landfi ll Site. Today we face even
greater challenges with urban sprawl and destruction
of farm lands. As our Mayor, Maurice Brenner will be a
strong community voice, when you need it!”
Katherine Murray - Pickering Resident & Founding Member of
Friends of The Altona Forest and Petticoat Creek
DIVERSITY MORE
THAN WORDS
“Maurice is recognized GTA
wide as a leader in Human
Rights and Diversity. He
challenges the system to
expose inequity and build
inclusiveness. I am proud to
endorse Maurice Brenner as
our next Mayor.”
Muhammad Shanawar Sultan
President United Council of Pakistani Canadians
PROTECTING OUR
HERITAGE
“We were early settlers
fi ghting for the freedoms
that we cherish today. Our
home, the Tullis Cottage, was
slated for demolition and we
were to be evicted. Maurice
Brenner’s fi erce determination
inspired us to keep on going.
His courage just like our ancestors helped grant the
Tullis Cottage a pardon. Today Transport Canada is set
to destroy 41 structures. We need Maurice Brenner
as our next Mayor to protect our heritage for future
generations.”
The Barclay’s - Residents North Pickering
SENIORS AND OUR
QUALITY OF LIFE
“We deserve to have the
choice to stay in our homes
and live in a community we
helped to build. Maurice
Brenner is a strong advocate
for seniors. He worked with us
to oppose increases in transit
fares, to expand our fl ag bus,
to expand the South Pickering
Seniors Centre, and to get a
new home for the Rouge Hill Seniors. As our next Mayor,
he will ensure we have the infrastructure to support us.”
Doris Maden - Past Recipient Seniors Award, Crusader for Seniors
and Accessible Transit, St. Martins, Pickering Resident
BUILDING
COMMUNITY
PARTNERSHIPS
“Maurice Brenner has
worked with us for
many years. By working
in partnership with our
Association, we saw the
beginning of what has
become a signifi cant part of the Waterfront Trail. With
Maurice Brenner as Mayor, we will build more partner-
ships and enhance what is there today.”
Paul White President - Fairport Beach Neighbourhood Association
For more information or to support Maurice contact him at

CANDIDATE FOR
CHANGE
“In 2006, 89 per cent voted YES to
the Direct Election of the Regional
Chair. Your current Mayor voted
NO when it came to Durham
Region in 2007. This time you want
a Mayor that respects the will of
the people. You want Maurice
Brenner, a Candidate for Change.”
John Mutton - Former Mayor of Clarington
2010 Chairman for Change Durham
DEMOCRACY &
TRANSPARENCY
“When decisions are made
and we are not consulted, it’s
wrong. I want a Mayor that
will represent us. A Mayor
that will consult with us. A
Mayor that will work with us.
I want leadership, I don’t want
dictatorship. I want Maurice
Brenner as our next Mayor.”
Michael Borie - Member of Stop the Stink

But that doesn’t slow down her or the Bevy
of Hope volunteers.
“Every time when someone comes to me
and I know they’ve got breast cancer, how
can I stop?” she said, adding the volunteers,
many of whom are also cancer survivors,
feel the same way.
After donating for the first few years to
the Canadian Cancer Society, Mrs. Snyders
chose to put the funds specifically toward
purchasing cancer equipment for local hos-
pitals, such as the Rouge Valley Health Sys-
tem (both Ajax and Scarborough sites) and
Lakeridge Health’s R.S. McLaughlin Dur-
ham Regional Cancer Centre in Oshawa.
“Most of everything I pick really serves all
cancers, but our mandate is breast cancer by
my charter,” she said.
This year, she’s dedicating the raffle funds
to Rouge Valley Ajax and Pickering hospital’s
Image is Everything campaign to purchase a
magnetic resonance imaging machine. The
hospital has to raise $5 million.
“I was shocked that they didn’t have an
MRI there,” Mrs. Snyders said. “I had just
assumed, like I think an awful lot of people,
that they did. So I found that very shocking.
I know MRI is so important for breast can-
cer or any kind of cancer. Why should peo-
ple have to go to Centenary or Oshawa when
there’s a hospital close to home?”
After two bouts with the disease, Mrs. Sny-
ders knows just how vital an MRI is.
“I certainly know because I have an MRI
every year or every six months, depending
on how things look,” she said.
Next year’s cause will depend on the “wish
lists” the Bevy of Hope receives from local
hospitals.
Raffle tickets will be for sale at a number
of locations throughout Durham, includ-
ing the Pickering Town Centre, the Oshawa
Centre, Loblaws and Wal-Mart stores in Ajax
and Whitby.
The baskets range from being filled with
useful kitchen items such as a vegetable
steamer and a toaster to hair products from
Hair Reflection Unisex in Pickering.
“They range from a minimum of $125 to
over $600,” Mrs. Snyders said.
There’s no real fundraising goal for this
year’s campaign.
“We just run with it,” she said. “I think I
more or less say myself, ‘My goal really is
selling all my tickets out’.”
Although October will wrap up and the
winners will be drawn in November, the
foundation accepts donations year-round
for next year’s fundraiser. Those wishing to
donate products or even baskets, an essen-
tial part of the fundraiser, can contact Mrs.
Snyders. And volunteers are always wel-
come.

Shannon McLean, 39,
killed in deadly
Caesarea blaze
CHRIS HALL
chall@durhamregion.com
CAESAREA -- Despite their best attempts,
Dan and Heidi McLean could not save their
daughter from the flames that destroyed
their Caesarea home early Sunday eve-
ning.
The pair attempted a couple of times to
rescue their disabled 39-year-old daugh-
ter, Shannon, but were turned away by
thick smoke and flames, explained neigh-
bour Robert Hubbard.
Seconds after their attempts to save
Shannon, it was the McLeans themselves
who were rescued from the burning home
by heroic neighbours.
According to Mr. Hubbard, his son, Jus-
tin, 19, pulled the couple from a stairway
into the kitchen before retreating outside
for fresh air. His brother, Brandon, 22, and
a third man, a neighbour, finished the job,
pulling the McLeans out the door, said Mr.
Hubbard.
“As far as I’m concerned, there are three
heroes in town,” said Mr. Hubbard. “They
are heroes, but they didn’t go into the
house to be heroes. They went into the
house to save someone’s life.
“Dan and Heidi would have done the
same thing. You do what you have to do,”
said Mr. Hubbard.
Emergency crews were called to the
McLean’s home, located at the corner
of Hiawatha Road and Regional Rd. 57,
around 6:30 p.m. on Oct. 3.
The two-story home was engulfed in
flames, but the blaze was confined mostly
to the top floor, attic and roof of the family
home, say authorities.
On Tuesday, officers with the Durham
police service’s forensics unit were at the
scene, along with officials from the Ontario
Fire Marshal’s office who are now the lead
agency investigating the deadly blaze.
A Scugog fire truck also remained parked
outside the home on Tuesday afternoon.
Neither Durham police nor the fire mar-
shal’s office have confirmed the identi-
ty of the victim, but Mr. Hubbard says the
McLeans have been family friends of his
for 22 years.
“I have tea with Dan every morning,
we’re partners and friends,” he said.
Shannon had a rare disorder that left her
immobilized and in bed nearly 24 hours a
day, continued Mr. Hubbard.
Emergency crews found her dead inside
the home, said police.
Heidi McLean suffered third-degree
burns to one of her hands and smoke inha-
lation, but will recover, said Mr. Hubbard.
“She’s a fighter,” he said.
If you have information about the investigation:

Classes to encourage
family fitness
PICKERING -- The Pickering Recre-
ation Complex will host three free
zumba classes this month in the
hopes of making fitness an impor-
tant part of family life.
Rec complex staff pointed out in
a press release that children absorb
behaviour patterns from their par-
ents and peers and it’s crucial that
families take an active role in fit-
ness together.
Exercise can also improve a child’s
cognitive and social skills, as well
as building confidence.
Zumba, the fitness craze inspired
by Latin dance, gets families laugh-
ing and exercising together.
Zumba’s slogan is ‘ditch the work-
out, join the party,” so families can
do just that free of charge on Thurs-
day, Oct. 7 at 5 p.m., Friday, Oct. 15
at 8 p.m. and Saturday, Oct. 23 at
10:30 a.m.
The classes will take place at the
recreation complex, 1867 Valley
Farm Rd.

a medal.
The Pickering resident has taken the first
step in that climb after being named to the
Canadian junior snowboard team for the
upcoming season. The 19 year old leaves
Oct. 11 for a training session in Portland,
followed by a trip to Calgary where he will
be based for the competitive season.
“I was pretty pumped,” says Evanoff of get-
ting the notification of his inclusion on the
national team by e-mail in June. “I wasn’t
expecting it, that’s for sure. I didn’t think I
performed well enough last year to make
the national team.”
Aside from his harsh personal critique,
Evanoff was considered highly enough to
be included as part of a forerunner group at
the Olympics Games, testing the course for
the men’s parallel giant slalom before com-
petitors raced down the hill. Those roles are
usually given to athletes expected to be on
the Olympic team the next time around, in
this case 2014 in Sochi, Russia.
The experience of training alongside the
best in the world and watching the event
unfold has inspired Evanoff to reach his
own potential in the sport.
“That was really cool,” he says of the Olym-
pic experience. “I’ve never been in an event
where there’s that many people watching
and that many people so excited to watch.
“When you are at the top, you get chills
on the back of your neck because you can
hear everyone screaming at the bottom.
When you come over the last pitch where
you can actually see the stands and every-
one is going crazy, it’s hard to stay focused
because you can’t believe how many people
are standing there.
“We weren’t expecting them to care about
us, but turns out they did.”
The Dunbarton graduate moved to Cal-
gary as part of the national team training
program and joined the Calgary Snowboard
Club. He will spend much of this season
living away from home and travelling the
world, with only a short visit over Christmas
planned.
“Living away from home, last year when I
first moved, it was tough for the first couple
of weeks, but after a while it was really fun,”
he says of learning life’s lessons away from
the classroom environment. “The travelling
is fun to go to the places, but the actual trav-
el and being in the airports is a pain.”
His goals for the season are ambitious,
hoping to make an impact by trying to win
the junior world championships, be among
the top three in the country, and top 16 on
the World Cup circuit.
Those will be the first steps in what he
hopes will be a path that leads back to the
Olympic Games, this time as a medal con-
tender.

GOLF
Success on the links
for Corringham at
junior tour event
PICKERING -- The new venue of
Tarandowah Golf Club in Avon proved to
be a tough challenge for the young golf-
ers on the Maple Leaf Junior Golf Tour,
where the conditions were extremely
difficult, leading to high scores in the
MJT Ontario One Day Fall Series on
Sept 25.
Despite the conditions, Karim Cor-
ringham, 19, of Pickering, beat Colin
McCoy, 17, of Tilsonburg, to win the
boys’ 17-19 title with a 76. Corringham
was also a divisional winner in the Sun-
dog Closest-to-the-Pin competition. He
also picked up the Golf Town Comeback
Award.
BEACH VOLLEYBALL

Wilson 19 Pickering 14
Elsewhere around the league,
the Wilson Gators received two

and one from Greg Morris in a
19-14 victory over the Pickering

Williams’s second major of the
game came with 4:35 remain-
ing and provided the go-ahead
points as the Gators improved to
2-0. Marley Patterson scored a
pair of touchdowns on runs of 57
and 66 yards for Pickering, who
have now lost two games in a row

Holy Trinity 63 J. Clarke 0
Holy Trinity, playing against a

added by Steven Courtney, Earl
Anderson, Svend Tamburro and
Matt Johnson, while Joe Mastro-

Sinclair 1 O’Neill 0
At the tier two senior level, the
Sinclair Celtics made a second-

remains winless.
Port Perry 22 Pine Ridge 14
At Pine Ridge, the Pumas were

each scored touchdowns. Pine
Ridge’s two scores came courtesy
Randall Inniss.
D’OC 20 Bowmanville 0
The only shutout in the second
week of tier two action was posted
by Denis O’Connor, who knocked
off Bowmanville 20-0. The Talons
were playing in their first game of
the season after a week one bye.
Scoring touchdowns for the Char-
gers were Kevin Iyamu, Brandon
MacPherson and James O’Brien.
Eastdale 34 Dunbarton 7
For Eastdale, Garret Williams
scored two majors in a 34-7 vic-
tory over Dunbarton. Tyler Ogg,
Travis King and Tevon Lawrence
also found the end zone. The only
Spartan score came on a Roynelle
Meredith touchdown.
Uxbridge 28 St. Stephen’s 14
Another Bowmanville-based
team suffered a loss as the St.
Stephen’s Royals were knocked
off by the Uxbridge Tigers 28-14.
Dylan Smith picked up 10 points
for Uxbridge with a touchdown,
convert and field goal, while Con-
ner Vale picked up all 14 for the
Royals with a pair of touchdowns
and a two point convert. Chris
Gladney, Chad Menzenburg and

the bye.
The following is a list of scores

Team captures
Lake Simcoe
Soccer Club
championship
PICKERING -- The Pickering
Soccer Club Power Green
U10 girls’ team capped a
perfect tournament season
by winning its fourth tour-
nament recently.
The team won the Lake
Simcoe Soccer Club tour-
nament. This tournament
win goes along with wins in
Oshawa, Ottawa and Kings-
ton.
In the Lake Simcoe tour-
nament, the Power Green
team started off slowly in
the first game against the
Markham Lightning. The
team was not quite on its
game and lost 1-0.
Regrouping for the sec-
ond game that day, the
team turned it around and
defeated the Thornhill
Thunder 3-1.
Pickering then needed to
win its third round-robin
game in order to secure a
spot in the semifinal. Play-
ing an early 8 a.m. game
on a cloudy and cool Sun-
day morning against the
second Newmarket United
Red team, the Power played
a passing game and worked
their way to a 5-1 victory to
advance.
The semifinal matchup
was against the Newmar-
ket United White team, in
a game that featured two
strong clubs. The Power
would prevail in the end,
though, posting a 4-1 vic-
tory to book their spot in
the final, where they would
be faced with a rematch
against Markham.
In a complete turn from
the tournament opener, the
Power dominated the final
and easily won the game
5-1 to take home the cham-
pionship trophy.
Pickering also finished
first overall in league play.
The team played in the
CESL league which consist-
ed of two six-team divisions.
The Power posted the best
record among them with a
mark of 13-1-1 for a total of
40 points.
The team also was first
with the best plus/minus
goal differential of +45.
Pickering was led by
head coach Andrew Hing,
assistant coach Eduar-
do Matheu and manager
Edward Hegyi.
Team members are Jor-
dan Burke, Victoria Cham-
bers, Ema Jassani, Rio War-
ner, Desiree Harte, Bryan-
na Payne, Avery Horlock,
Nicole Hegyi Cherei Smith
and Gabriella Torretto.

In 2006 294,104 eligible Durham voters
threw theirs away...were you one of them?
Federal and provincial elections in Canada have recently drawn voter turnout numbers in the high 50 to mid-60% range -- below that of past decades. Worse still is voter turnout for municipal elections which, in Durham Region in 2006, ranged from a low of 23% in Ajax to a high of 49% in Brock and Uxbridge.
On Oct. 25, 2010 Durham Region voters will once again go to the polls to elect their city, town and regional councillors and school board trustees.
Between today and election day, this newspaper will run a series of feature stories, editorials and columns exploring the issue of why we should take our democracy and the right to vote seriously: you, too, can Make A Difference.
