PICKERING BOY’S
‘BIGGEST LEAF EVER’
COULD BE ONE FOR
THE RECORD BOOKS
JENNIFER O’MEARA
jomeara@durhamregion.com
PICKERING -- Nine-year-old Joseph Donato is pretty sure
he’s found the biggest maple leaf in the world.
“I drove over this leaf on my bike,” said Joseph, holding
up a yellow maple leaf larger than his head. “(I) think it
might be the biggest one ever.”
He was coming back from the East Woodlands Park
with his mom, Angie, younger brother Michael, and sister,
Alyssa, when he found the monster leaf.
Ms. Donato said she and her children were all picking
up colourful autumn leaves on the walk home. It wasn’t
until they got home that her oldest son showed her his
find.
The leaf is 13-inches wide and more than 10-inches
long (15 inches if you include the stem). Joseph wants to
get those measurements to the Guinness Book of World
Records and see if he can set a new world record for the
largest maple leaf.
“It’s the biggest leaf ever. I’ve got to get it in the record
books,” said Joseph. “We found out there was no record
for leaves so I want to submit it.”
Ms. Donato said she plans to help her son write the
record keepers at the Guinness Book of World Records,
and see if there’s a category for leaves. In the meantime,
she’s trying to find a protective cover for Joseph’s leaf so
he can take it to show his Grade 4 classmates at St. Eliza-
beth Seton Catholic School.
“He was afraid he was going to wreck it. We couldn’t
find anything big enough to fit it in to protect it,” said Ms.
Donato.
PICKERING -- Joseph Donato,
9, did a double take when he
spotted this giant leaf (pictured
full size in the background) that
measures 13-inches wide and
10-inches long without the stem.

MELISSA MANCINI

DURHAM -- When Arlie Rayson walks down the hall
at Pringle Creek Public School, she is greeted by name
by many children much younger than her own.
The Whitby mother, who has children in Grade 4 and
6 at the school, has been helping out in a kindergarten
class for the last three years, so she has many fans much
younger than her own kids.
“The most fun part is walking down the hall and hear-
ing them all say hi,” she said.
Ms. Rayson is also a member of the School Council and
helps out with pizza lunches. She said she helps as much
as she does because likes being part of the school her kids
go to. “It’s important for me to learn what’s going on in
their school,” she said. “It’s really important to know who
their friends are.”
A large crowd, many with bouquets of flowers in tow,
packed Sinclair Secondary School’s auditorium on
Oct. 21 to honour volunteers who do their part in local
schools. One volunteer from each school in Durham was
honoured in the ceremony.
Choosing just one volunteer from each school in the
board is not easy, said Kathleen Abe- Gokool, a mem-
ber of the board’s Parent Involvement Committee, which
hosted the volunteer night.
“It’s always a difficult task to select just one volunteer,”
she said.
Board officials thanked the room full of helpers for giv-
ing their time. “All I can say is thank you, thank you, thank
you,” said Larry Jacula, chairman of the Durham District
School Board.
The board could not operate as well without the count-
less thousands of hours volunteers provide, he said. “We
could not begin to pay people to do what you do.”
Several thousand volunteers put in hours at local
schools, said Director of Education Martyn Beckett.
“They have been and continue to be the fabric of our
education system.”

Went to Oshawa
apartment to ‘smoke
weed and chill’
JEFF MITCHELL
jmitchell@durhamregion.com
OSHAWA -- Three men on trial for a home
invasion had no intention of committing a
robbery when they went to a south Oshawa
apartment, a Crown witness has testified.
Matthew Dunbar, James Park and
Damien Sergeant went to the Malaga Road
apartment to “smoke weed and hang out,”
not to rob the woman there, Trevor David-
son testified Tuesday in Superior Court.
Mr. Davidson said police became involved
when he got into a dispute over money
with Tammy Lewis in her apartment.
“All these guys knew is we were going in
to smoke weed and hang out,” Mr. David-
son, of Ajax, testified. “They didn’t know
Tammy owed me money.”
Mr. Sergeant and Mr. Park, of Ajax, and
Mr. Dunbar, of Hamilton, have pleaded
not guilty to charges of robbery, break and
enter and forcible confinement in connec-
tion with the incident, which occurred in
Ms. Lewis’s apartment at about 3 a.m. on
March 30, 2009. Mr. Davidson said Tues-
day he pleaded guilty to the same charges,
but insisted he’s guilty at most of trespass-
ing.
Mr. Davidson said he and his three
friends knocked at the door of Ms. Lewis’s
apartment and were invited in, and that he
gave Ms. Lewis a chunk of crack cocaine
to smoke. He said he later became upset
when Ms. Lewis told him she didn’t have
money she owed him. He said that during
an exchange with the woman he angrily
pulled a phone cord out of the wall as she
tried to make a call.
Ms. Lewis managed to dial 911 and the
call went through to police, the jury has
heard. Officers were dispatched for an
unknown trouble call and arrested the
young men at the apartment.
Mr. Davidson’s account of events is in
sharp contrast to that given by Ms. Lewis
at a preliminary hearing for the four young
men last year.
At the preliminary hearing Ms. Lewis said
four men burst into her apartment and
detained her, demanding compensation
for drugs that had been stolen from one of
them on an earlier occasion. She testified
she was put in a headlock when she tried
to make a run for it.
A tape of Ms. Lewis’s testimony at that
hearing has been entered as evidence at
this trial. Ms. Lewis was murdered last
December; her common-law partner has
been charged.
Tuesday, Mr. Davidson said he had made
a mistake when he pleaded guilty; he said
he understood charges would be dropped
or reduced in exchange for a guilty plea.
Instead he was convicted of all three crimi-
nal charges he faced, court heard.
Mr. Davidson apologized from the wit-
ness stand to the three men now on trial.
“They were in the apartment but they
didn’t know what was going on,” he said.
“They thought we were coming in to smoke
weed and chill out.”
The trial, before Superior Court Justice
Jane Ferguson, continues.

Local man struggling to
pay climbing hydro bills
JILLIAN FOLLERT
jfollert@durhamregion.com
OSHAWA -- Over the past year, Garneth
Fry has watched his hydro costs climb from
$58 a month in December 2009, to $102 a
month on his most recent bill.
The Oshawa man acknowledges that an
extra $50 a month may not seem like a big
deal, but says his family can’t afford any
unexpected expenses.
“I’m disabled, I’m on a fixed income. My
other half was out of work and just found a
job,” he says. “It makes a huge difference to
us when it goes up like that.”
Mr. Fry got some high-profile help this
week when Ontario NDP leader Andrea
Horwath showed up on his doorstep as
part of the party’s “HST off Hydro” cam-
paign.
The pair sat down at his dining room
table to go over a stack of hydro bills and
chat about the impact of the new harmo-
nized sales tax (HST), which took effect on
July 1 of this year.
The Ontario NDP is pushing Premier
Dalton McGuinty and his Liberal govern-
ment to take the HST off hydro bills, as a
way of helping struggling families make
ends meet.
If that doesn’t happen, Ms. Horwath says
her party will make it an election issue
when the provincial vote rolls around next
fall.
“That extra eight per cent makes a differ-
ence. It all adds salt to the wound of hydro
bills that are already growing,” she said.
A recent study completed by the Ontario
NDP indicates the HST will cost the aver-
age Ontario family about $800 more per
year. Taking the HST off hydro bills would
save the average family with two or more
kids $135 a year, a media release says.
“The government is saying we have a
series of tax credits and we have all kinds
of hoops you can jump through if you’re a
senior, or if you’re a low-income person or
if you happen to live in the north, but that’s
not good enough,” Ms. Horwath said. “It
doesn’t take care of everybody.”
The HST blends the five per cent GST and
eight per cent PST for a total of 13 per cent.
Prior to that a long list of goods and ser-
vices were subject to GST, but exempt from
PST. Home heating bills are among the ser-
vices that used to be taxed at five per cent
and are now set at 13 per cent.
Mr. Fry said the extra eight per cent on his
bill, combined with the fact that his home
is now on a Smart Meter, is making it tough
to pay his hydro bills in full and on time.
“You have to rob from Peter to pay Paul;
it’s very hard,” he said.
In an effort to offset the impact of the
HST, the Liberals introduced a one-time
transition benefit payment of up to $1,000
for families and up to $300 for single peo-
ple.
The party has also trumpeted the perma-
nent Ontario Sales Tax Credit -- which pro-
vides low to middle-income earners with
up to $260 each per year -- and a new prop-
erty tax credit of up to $1,025 a year for eli-
gible low- and middle-income seniors.
The Liberal party says studies show
the HST will result in increased annu-
al incomes of up to 8.8 per cent as well as
almost 600,000 net new jobs over the next
decade.

OSHAWA -- Andrea Horwath, leader of the Ontario NDP party, sat down with Albert
Street homeowner Garneth Fry to discuss hydro and HST issues on Oct. 27. Mr. Fry was
complaining his hydro bills have almost doubled due to the installation of a Smart
Meter as well as the increased cost because of the HST.

Simple and free latch
solves green bin
raccoon issues
To the editor:
Further to green bins and raccoons, I too
had this problem since my cans are stored
in the open. Did you know the Region
offers for free a small plastic latch (similar
to a child safety lock) that prevents your bin
from opening when the raccoon knocks it
over?
It took just minutes to attach and after
two failed attempts, the raccoons haven’t
been back. That was over a year ago.
The only caveat is that you have to leave
the can unlatched (loosely open) on gar-
bage day as the collectors will not try and
open it.

FEEDBACK
Williams trial coverage
kept me informed
To the editor:
Re: Letter to the editor, ‘Williams trial had
no business being in my community news-
paper,’ Friday, Oct. 22.
While the letter writer clearly states his
viewpoint on why your newspaper should
not have carried any stories on the Wil-
liams trial, I disagree with his possible res-
olution for his unhappiness.
I feel it is unfair to punish the carrier by
refusing to pay the voluntary collection
fee just because you are dissatisfied with a
story the paper is running. If you are that
upset and “refuse to endorse this form of
reporting...” then ask to not have the news-
paper delivered to your house.
I do not buy any other newspaper and
with a three-year-old and four-month-old
at home, rarely have the time or opportu-
nity to watch news programs or read about
news on the Internet. I have been informed
of this case from reading this newspaper. I
appreciate that the editor chose to listen to
the requests of many readers and include
the articles.
If you do not approve, then turn to the
next page. I don’t feel any local community
news was missed by the choice to include
the Williams’ trial articles and each one
was preceded by an editor’s note explain-
ing its inclusion.
In closing, if the letter writer is so against
the choice to include coverage of the Wil-
liams’ trial in his local community paper,
then he should request that it not be deliv-
ered to his house.
Don’t take your frustration, shock and
dismay out on a carrier who is grateful for
any collections they receive just because
you are upset with the editor or the news-
paper.

ANIMAL CARE
Charitable organization
can help with pet costs
To the editor:
Re: ‘High vet bills force senior to give up
beloved pet’, letter to the editor, durhamre-
gion.com Oct. 18.
I am saddened to hear about the pet
owner who had to give away her pet
because of financial difficulties.
Unfortunately, this is a sad reality for pet
owners who, once able to provide nec-
essary care for their pets, suddenly find
themselves unable to continue to do so.
Veterinarians provide more than $1 mil-
lion in benevolent care each year, but the
needs far outweigh this number. Fortu-
nately, there is a charity in Ontario that can
help. The Farley Foundation is a registered
charity which helps low-income seniors,
disabled individuals and women at risk of
abuse -- if they meet the eligibility criteria
-- by subsidizing the non-elective veteri-
nary care of the pets that mean the world to
them.
Veterinarians apply for funding on behalf
of pet owners.
The decision to apply for funding is at the
discretion of the veterinarian. Veterinar-
ians who may not know about the Farley
Foundation should visit www.farleyfoun-
dation.org for details.
So far, the charity has disbursed over
$960,000 to assist more than 2,500 people
and pets across Ontario.

Heed the call on direct election of Durham chairman
If it’s true that numbers never lie, a clear and
unequivocal majority of Durham Region res-
idents who cast ballots in Monday’s munici-
pal elections want to see the Durham Region
chairman directly elected by voters. Munic-
ipalities across the region had included on
their municipal ballots a referendum ques-
tion asking if there was sufficient support to
reform current rules and elect the Regional
chairman in a general vote, as opposed to
the past practice of appointing the chairman
among duly elected Regional councillors.
Every municipality’s results came with a
clear majority: voters want change. Now,
the new Regional council must decide if the
number of ‘yes’ votes are sufficient to move
forward on the reforms, due to a stipulation
that the vote does not automatically become
binding unless more than 50 per cent of eli-
gible voters chose in favour.
Considering that average voter turnout in
past elections in Durham hovers between
25 and 35 per cent in most municipalities --
although Monday’s election saw a significant
bump in participation rates -- that magic
number was never likely to be reached.
But officials must not use that as a barrier
to implementing change. In municipality
after municipality, ratepayers who did cast a
vote on Monday left little room for interpre-
tation: they want to see the Durham chair-
man directly elected. Even voters in Scugog
and Uxbridge, communities whose political
leaders have consistently and vehement-
ly opposed direct election of the Regional
chairman, were overwhelmingly in favour of
choosing change. In Scugog, More than 5,000
said yes to direct election, while 2,500 were
opposed. In neighbouring Uxbridge, 4,700
were in favour, while only 2,150 opposed
direct election. The numbers from Pickering
to Clarington in Durham’s urban communi-
ties were similarly hard to misinterpret.
Incoming municipal governments can’t
ignore those numbers, nor can the new and
returning members of Durham Region-
al Council. Thus, there is a mandate from
Durham Region voters for direct election. A
clear majority of votes that were cast make
the case.
We strongly encourage municipal lead-
ers across Durham Region to heed the will
of the electorate, expressed as clearly as it
could have been on Monday, and begin the
process of reform.
Debate the options, discuss the intricacies
and deliver the reform package in an expe-
ditious manner. The results among the tens
of thousands of votes cast are unequivocal.
The people have spoken.

Canadian musician
speaks out in Durham
PARVANEH PESSIAN
ppessian@durhamregion.com
WHITBY -- Chantal Kreviazuk stares into the
camera wearing a vacant expression with
dark circles underneath her eyes, her com-
plexion sallow and her lips pursed.
She looks ready to spit but instead starts sob-
bing softly.
“I just wanna be normal,” she says over and
over again before exploding into another
angry outburst or a fit of maniacal laughter at
apparently nothing.
The Manitoba-born singer-songwriter,
activist, model and occasional actress is play-
ing Patient Number 48273 in a short film she
wrote, co-produced and starred in, entitled
Pretty Broken, about a woman in a psychiatric
ward suffering from severe mood disorder.
The film, which premiered at the 2006 Toron-
to International Film Festival, was shown to an
audience at Ontario Shores Centre for Mental
Health Sciences on Oct. 20.
Ms. Kreviazuk, 37, was invited to speak at
the Whitby facility as part of the Imagine Film
Festival, which was launched two years ago to
raise awareness about mental health issues.
During the hour-long presentation, she
explained how natural it was to slip into the
role of the patient, having witnessed mental
illness take over the life of someone close to
her for many years.
“I think I had absorbed so many episodes
and there was just this moment where ... I just
wanted to write down the contents of a typical
episode that I was either witnessing, or being
subjected to, or feeling victimized by.”
Channelling these complex feelings into a
gripping 10 minutes on screen, Ms. Kreviazuk
paints an emotionally raw and vivid picture of
what it feels like to battle demons within one-
self. The Imagine Film Festival, which ran from
Oct. 16 to 21, included film screenings, Fam-
ily Day activities and a special celebrity guest
speaker.
“We welcome all individuals to share their
stories and it’s really through dialogue and
connecting with each other that we can truly
have an impact on the journey of recovery,”
said Glenna Raymond, CEO and president of
Ontario Shores.
Ms. Kreviazuk spoke at length about her
own experience with mental health issues.
She recalled a visit to a physician in her youth
who told her that one sick person in a family
spreads sickness to everyone, which she didn’t
understand until later in life.
“Over time, I’ve realized well of course we’re
all sick; we’re bloody ill here and we all need
help here,” she said. “I’m sick because of what
I’ve witnessed, because it’s traumatizing. It’s
post-traumatic stress every day of your life and
you take it into everything.”
One of the areas she’s integrated her expe-
rience with mental illness is in her music
career, which began in 1996 when her debut
album soared to the top of the North Ameri-
can charts.
Now an award-winning artist, Ms. Kreviaz-
uk performed a few songs for the audience at
Ontario Shores, including Surrounded, In This
Life and All I Can Do.
Surrounded, the first song that truly gar-
nered her wide-scale recognition, is based on
her first love, Samuel, who battled mood dis-
order and tragically ended his life at age 21.
“I think the greatest advice that anyone could
ever take, or give, or receive with regard to art
and speaking out with any platform on any
level is just to do or speak of what you know,”
Ms. Kreviazuk said, going on to explain how
performing that song helped her through the
healing process.

Waste Management, Regional Municipality of Durham
605 Rossland Rd. E., Whitby ON L1N 6A3
www.durhamregionwaste.ca
Why is the Region providing another
free blue box?
Durham Region diverts more waste from
landfi ll than any other municipality of our
size in Ontario. But we can do better.
The Region has a two-stream recycling
program in place which means that paper
recyclables and container recyclables
(such as bottles and cans) are collected
in separate blue boxes.
In 2009, the Region conducted waste
audits which demonstrated that an
overwhelming majority (87 percent) of
residents could use additional blue box
capacity to maximize their recycling.
Almost half of residents used only one
box or had no boxes at all. This results
in higher instances of mixed recyclable
material in one box requiring increased
curbside sorting by collection contractors.
Using two blue boxes will help to ensure
all household recyclables are collected
and sorted properly.
Your new bigger blue box, in addition to
your existing blue box(es), is a Durham
investment designed to help you take
all of your recyclables to the curb every
week. Some residents have thrown out
recyclables once their blue box was full;
but now with increased capacity the extra
recyclables collected will help
pay for the new box in just two
years.
Enjoy your new bigger blue box.
It’s yours to keep and to help
you continue doing your part in making
Durham Region a great place to live.
It’s frustrating to see people fl ick their
cigarette butts out the car window. Isn’t
littering bad for the environment?
It is estimated that several trillion cigarette
butts are fl icked on our roadways,
sidewalks and other public spaces every
year world-wide. Cigarette butts are the
most littered item in the world.
Butts can remain intact for several
decades. The fi lter is made of cellulose
acetate fi bres (plastic, not cotton) bound
together with another plastic called
glycerol triacetate which remains intact
even after outdoor exposure. But it’s not
just cigarettes. It’s also the plastic wrap,
the inner foil and the packaging that can
end up on the ground.
Cigarette butts fl icked out the car window
are not only annoying but the toxic
residue in cigarette fi lters is damaging to
the environment, and discarded butts can
even cause fi res.
Smokers may not realize that their actions
have such a lasting, negative impact
on the environment.
Please consider
the environment
the next time you
butt out!

Fun, friendship the order
of the day during 26th
annual event in Pickering
JENNIFER O’MEARA
jomeara@durhamregion.com
PICKERING -- The Durham Regional
Police Children’s Games brought laughs,
friendship and athletic competition to
children with disabilities on Saturday,
Oct. 23.
Matt Vocino, 13, was in top form at the
Games. The Pickering teen, who uses an
electric wheelchair, came in first in the
wheelchair slalom, won a prize draw at
lunch and his team made the wheelchair
rugby finals.
“I love the rugby. It’s really competi-
tive. It’s kind of like hockey,” said Matt.
The top two children’s rugby teams
faced off after lunch.
“The winning team plays the police
team. We get in wheelchairs. That’s
always a lot of fun,” said Constable Will
White, volunteer co-ordinator of the
games.
This is the 26th year for the DRP Chil-
dren’s Games. Children between the
ages of six and 18 with physical disabil-
ities compete for medals, trophies and
have fun with each other.
“There’s varying ability here but the
competition is the same as other kids,”
said Sylvia Vocino, Matt’s mother. “It’s
awesome. It’s so great to be around fami-
lies that have similar obstacles and chal-
lenges.”
The Games include a wheelchair obsta-
cle course, the bean bag toss, wheelchair
rugby, mini putt and more.
The events were designed to be fun
and challenging for the 50 children, who
have a variety of physical disabilities.
“These children tend to be more on the
sidelines as observers. Today they can
be in the action and their siblings can be
on the sidelines watching,” said Lynne
Hebert, secretary of the Games.
“It’s just a fun day.”
The event gets fantastic community
support, explained Ms. Hebert.
The City of Pickering gives them the
space in the recreation complex to host
the event.
Local businesses, such as Tim Hortons,
donate food and prizes and there were
more than 100 volunteers, 40 of whom
were police officers.
“We do it every year because it’s so
much fun,” said 17-year-old volunteer
Brooke Waldriff. “Seeing all the kids and
how they smile.”
“It’s so rewarding. I look forward to it
every year,” agreed volunteer Shannon
Osgood.
Ten-year-old Tara Pitchforth has been
collecting pop tabs since she was in kin-
dergarten when she learned the collect-
ed metal could help provide a wheel-
chair to a child who needed one. Over
the past five years, the local girl has col-
lected more than 50 pounds of pop tabs
- enough to fill a 22-litre Rubbermaid
container.
Her father Lee Pitchforth said he strug-
gled to fit the collection into the car to
take it for Tara to donate at the DRP Chil-
dren’s Games.
“It’s to help people with wheelchairs,”
explained Tara of her five-year collec-
tion. “I’m excited.”

Health & Wellness ADVERTISING FEATURE
Everyone knows that with a decrease in temperature in the fall, we
must do certain chores around the house to ready it for winter. The
same is true for your car, including antifreeze and snow tires. But how
many of us are aware if the need to ‘shape up’— to ready our bodies
and muscle for the winter season? Healthy feet and ankles must be fi t
and strong to act as accelerators, to steer, brake and absorb shock. Any
weakness to these extremities can lead to injuries and even end any
winter sporting season prematurely. Here are some ways to prepare
yourself for the winter.
Fitness
A fi tness program should begin right now to ready yourself for the
fi rst snowfall. For skiing, strong quads and abdominal muscles are most
important. Knee bends, sit ups, crunches and skipping rope all help
to strengthen your quads and abdominals. Racquet sports are equally
benefi cial in maintaining cardiovascular benefi ts and reaction time.
Greater fl exibility allows for a wider range of motion and minimizes
the chance of strains. Stretch antagonistic muscle groups to maintain a
point of tightness, hold for 40 to 60 seconds and release. Repeat each
stretch three times. Strength of muscles is also important but overdoing
it can lead to muscle tears.
Warm-ups are most important before beginning the activity, espe-
cially for cold weather sports. Warm-up exercises help stretch muscles
and allow for greater mobility. This minimizes the chance of injuries
by allowing the muscles to be more responsive and act as better shock
absorbers. Stream the part of the body used in the activity; for ex-
ample, your legs in skiing or skating when warming up, but also your
upper body with circular arm swings.
A cool-down period after the activity is also important. A
sauna or whirlpool followed by a cool shower will help. Stop
the activity when you’re tired. Remember, more injuries occur
on that last run of the day when fatigue hampers your reactive
time and you are not paying attention.
Attire
Winter sports require proper clothing. Upper body layer-
ing will keep you warmer and always wear a hat to prevent
heat loss. Proper footwear includes insulated waterproof boots
or shoes. Socks must remain dry to prevent the occurrence of
frostbite. Those suffering from pre-existing circulatory prob-
lems such as diabetes or Raynaud’s Disease should consult their
medical doctor.
Ski boots and skates should fi t properly for a safe and unevent-
ful activity. If the boots and skates are too loose, toes quickly
get irritated in the toe box. If they are too tight, pressure leads to blis-
ters and abrasions, causing painful feet, which may compromise con-
trol and circulation and lead to injuries or accidents.
Do not put children in hand-me downs. Skates that are too small,
too large or too wide may lack proper ankle support leading to strains,
sprains or even fractures.
Winter runners may unconsciously change their foot strike pattern,
which can lead to overuse injuries. To increase traction on slipper
surfaces, runners may land with the entire foot instead of the natural
heel-toe strike. Lateral slippage may lead to groin pulls. Some runners
are trying spikes that fi t over their shoes when jogging on slippery
surfaces.
Some common winter problems to watch out for are:
1. Frostbite: Skin freezes when exposed to cold temperatures and
high winds. With longer exposure, blood vessels constrict and skin
colour changes from blue to white. A feeling of numbness or burn-
ing may indicate frostbite. Wet feet are more prone to frostbite as are
people with a previous history of frostbite. Prevention includes chang-
ing wet clothing and avoiding the intake of alcoholic beverages.
Shield yourself from high winds and keep moving. Treatment in-
volves putting fi ngers in your armpit or touching warm skin. Remove
clothing from the affected area and avoid rubbing the skin. Immerse
the affected area in warm water (40 degrees Celsius) for 20 to 30 min-
utes until the affected area turns red. If blisters develop, add an antisep-
tic such as Betadine to the skin. If no water is available, keep affected
areas warm with blankets or in contact with another person’s skin. See
your medical doctor as soon as possible.
2. Blisters: Friction from ill-fi tting footgear can cause blisters.
Do not pop a blister as it will be more easily infected. If it breaks on its
own, disinfect it and cover it with a sterile bandage.
3. Hypothermia: This affects the entire body and involves a rapid
loss of body heat. Initially shivering will generate more body heat. If
shivering stops, a person is not necessarily warmed and this is some-
times a warning sign. Continued exposure to cold temperatures can
lead to hypothermia. This is a medical emergency and professional
care should be sought.
4. Strains and Sprains: These are common injuries, especially in
skiing and skating. They should be treated with rest, ice compressions
and elevation of the limb (RICE).
Winter can be a fun season if proper care is taken. Attention to mus-
cle fl exibility, proper clothing and warm-up exercises will ensure a
season of injury-free fun.

Pickering girl and her cat host shelter
fundraiser Friday
PICKERING -- Young Pickering resident Jaclyn Holdsworth and her
feline friend Jet are hosting their first ever Halloween fundraiser on
Friday and all are welcome to come.
Jet’s First Happy Halloween FUNdraiser will take place on Friday,
Oct. 29 from 7 to 9 p.m. at 1893 Pinecreek Crt. in Pickering. It’s open
to the public and will feature a fun quest filled with clues and hints
along the way, as well as some “gross food like worm pie and snot,” for
all to enjoy. Jaclyn will also hand out fun crosswords and puzzles, and
some Halloween Bingo is planned in case it rains.
Although it’s her birthday celebration, Jaclyn,
9, doesn’t want any presents; she’s asking for
cat toys, Science Diet cat food, cat litter and blan-
kets, which she’ll donate to the Second Chance Wild-
life Sanctuary in Pickering.
Jaclyn adopted her black cat Jet from Second Chance four
months ago and since she couldn’t take them all, she wanted to
help the other cats living at the shelter.
Jaclyn at the age of six set out to help World Vision and raised
enough to buy six stables and some animals in 2008.
For more information:

JASON LIEBREGTS / METROLAND
AJAX -- J. Clarke Richardson player Jason Harrison was tackled by St. Mary’s Kyle Wasson, right, in senior boys’ Tier I football action at J.
Clarke Richardson Collegiate.
LOSSA SENIOR FOOTBALL WEEK FIVE
St. Mary runs over J. Clarke by 37-7
DURHAM -- After falling behind early, the Wil-
son Gators bounced back in a big way during
week five LOSSA senior boys’ football action.
Down 7-0 to the Paul Dwyer Saints, Chivon
Gallagher unleashed a 63 yard touchdown
run then added the convert to knot the game
at seven. A Greg Morris 40 yard run with 1:28
remaining in the first quarter put the Gators
ahead to stay en route to a resounding 53-21
win over the Saints.
Gallagher had another touchdown, while
Morris totaled three and Omar Williams a
pair.
Tony Flanagan, Jon Arthworthy and Trent
Frawley registered the Dwyer majors.
Holy Trinity 55 Ajax Rams 3
Elsewhere, the Holy Trinity Titans continue
to overwhelm the opposition, with their most
recent victory coming by a 55-3 count over the
Ajax Rams.
All that offence came despite the absence
of leading scorer Ryan Dus, who missed the
game due to illness. Leading the way though
were Nathaniel Allen, Earl Anderson and
Svend Tamburro with two touchdowns each
and Alex Scott and Will Hepburn with one
each.
Holy Trinity and Wilson remain tied atop the
standings with perfect 4-0 records.
St. Mary 37 J. Clarke 7
While those two teams continue to roll, the
St. Mary Monarchs, after two consecutive
losses, appear to be back on track following a
37-7 triumph over J. Clarke Richardson.
Running back Dillon Campbell and quar-
terback Keith Cyrus each recorded two touch-
downs for St. Mary, with the other coming
from Carmen Scala.
The Pickering Trojans were on a bye week.
Port Perry 6 Sinclair 3
In the tier two loop, a low-scoring affair saw
the Port Perry Rebels sneak past the Sinclair
Celtics 6-3. Connor Haslam accounted for five
of Port Perry’s points with a field goal and two
singles.
Pine Ridge 49 Bowmanville 0
At the other end of the spectrum, the
Pine Ridge Pumas laid a thrashing on the
Bowmanville Talons 49-0, getting three touch-
downs each from Randall Innis and Alex Wang
and another from Andrew Brownlee.
O’Neill 18 Notre Dame 6
For the O’Neill Red Hawks, after a slow start,
they have reeled off three consecutive wins,
their most recent coming by an 18-6 score
over the Notre Dame Cougars.
Jordan Stone and Nic Gray each had touch-
downs in the winning effort.
Uxbridge 27 Dunbarton 6
In the north, the Uxbridge Tigers won their
second of the year with a 27-6 decision over
the Dunbarton Spartans. Dylan Smith with a
touchdown and three converts led the Tiger
scoring while Lucas Gilham, Nate Mills and
Chris Gladney each contributed one major.
Eastdale 35 Denis O’Connor 14
The final game of the week saw the East-
dale Eagles triumph 35-14 over the Denis
O’Connor Chargers.
GOLF
Mills misses
his chance to
advance to PGA
CHARLESTON, S.C. -- Jon Mills
will get one last chance to get his PGA
playing card back for next season.
The 32-year-old Oshawa native
will be one of 60 teeing it up at the
Nationwide Tour Championship in
Charleston, South Carolina beginning
today, where he will need to jump up
three spots in the money list to become
a fully exempt member of the PGA Tour
again.
Mills, who played on the PGA
Tour in 2006 and 2008, had an excel-
lent opportunity to secure his card this
past weekend, but he slipped from first
to fifth place in the final round of the
Winn-Dixie Jacksonville Open in Flor-
ida on Sunday.
So, rather than the $108,000 pay-
cheque that was up for grabs, and
won by David Mathis, Mills earned just
$19,650, bringing his season total to
$176,283, and moving him from 31st
to 28th on the money list. Mathis vault-
ed all the way from 35th to 12th with
the win, guaranteeing himself his card.
Mills remains more than $11,000
back of Chris Nallen, who currently
holds the 25th and final spot on the list
of those who will be promoted.

U11 team continues
with post-season
tournaments
AJAX -- The U11 Dynamite girls
from the Ajax Soccer Club conclud-
ed their season as league champi-
ons for the fourth consecutive year.
This year the Dynamite girls did
it winning 12 games, tying one and
losing one, while scoring 64 goals
and allowing 16. They finished with
37 points, with Whitby A following
behind with 26 points and Darling-
ton with 21.
With the season completed,
teams continue to attend post-sea-
son tournaments to get a look at
new recruits and new competition.
The Dynamite girls of Ajax attend-
ed the Erin Mills Tournament.
Ajax Dynamite started the tour-
nament on a high, soundly beating
Oakville 3-0. Their second game
of the tournament matched the
Dynamite girls with the Toronto
District league champions Etobi-
coke, with the game ending 1-1.
The third game of the day pitted the
Dynamite girls against Erin Mills B.
The Dynamite girls exploded and
walked away with an 8-0 win which
put them in first place in their divi-
sion while Etobicoke was second.
The following day saw first place
Ajax Dynamite pitted against
Erin Mills A and Etobicoke pitted
against Mississauga Falcons in the
semifinal match up.
Erin Mills A gave the Dynamite a
wake up call and before Ajax knew
it, they were down 1-0. Late into
the game Ajax tied it up which put
the game into overtime. Late in the
second half of overtime a Dyna-
mite strike caught the far corner
and Ajax was in the finals against
Etobicoke.
With the Dynamite leading 1-0 at
half time, it looked like the Dyna-
mite would squeak out a tourna-
ment win. As the game went on,
the Dynamite girls felt more and
more comfortable with each other
and before Etobicoke knew what
hit them, the Dynamite girls had
netted another two for a 3-0 win.
The Ajax Dynamite will be com-
peting in the CGSL which compris-
es the top three teams from Dur-
ham Region, the top three from
York Region and the top two from
the Toronto Region.
The Ajax Dynamite were joined
by newcomers goalie Celina Hunt,
midfielder Makayla Mori and for-
ward BreAnah Webster. The exist-
ing Dynamite players are Lindsay
Albani, Courtney Correia, Milan
Danford, Nicole Dodge, Jaelin Hoo-
Hing, Sinead Kappel, Parys Kerr,

lin O’Brien, Fallon Rodrigues and

have completed a post-secondary 911 Emergency Services Communications

Your ability to perform radio dispatch duties in an often demanding and stressful
emergency environment and good knowledge of streets and fire station locations
in the Town of Ajax is combined with excellent computer skills (able to type 40

criminal reference check. You must be willing to wear a uniform and work nights,
weekends, and holidays as scheduled. Testing will be required as part of the
recruitment process as is a criminal reference check.

years of purchasing work experience in a manufacturing environment, preferably in

CPP or PMAC designation. You have knowledge of purchasing, materials
