First phase of RHU project complete
By Patricia Leboeuf
Town Hall
meeting for
RHU occupants
tonight (Oct 9)
4 CDSB Personnel Support Services and Canadian
Forces Housing Agency are
hosting a Town Hall for the
occupants of the residential
housing units (RHUs).
The Town Hall will be
hosted on 9 Oct at 1800 hrs
at the Troyes Theatre. Come
to learn about current and
future planned projects to
improve the quality of life in
the RHUs.
This is your opportunity to provide feedback and
learn about the initiatives to
improve the housing for you
and your family.
Petawawa Post
To accommodate the
arrival of personnel and
families of 450 Tactical
Helicopter Squadron, the
Canadian Forces Housing
Agency (CFHA) began construction of 64 new housing
units at Garrison Petawawa.
To date, 26 new Residential Housing Units
(RHUs) have been completed and are occupied.
вЂњWe knew that there
was perhaps 400 new families coming here and based
on our ratio we know
there would be between
50 to 100 families who
would require housing on
the base,вЂќ said CFHA CEO
Dominique
Francoeur.
вЂњThatвЂ™s why we were able
to get funding for the new
houses.
вЂњUnfortunately,
we
donвЂ™t get to build new houses everywhere,вЂќ she added.
вЂњItвЂ™s only when we have
projects like this that we can
afford to build new houses
so this is great. ItвЂ™s great for
the families as well.вЂќ
Phase one of the project cost $5.5 million and
was comprised of the first
26 units. The entire project will cost $33.4 million.
Wade Construction Limited
of Petawawa was awarded
the contract for the initial
phase.
The second phase is an
additional 38 new homes,
of which there are still 32
under construction.
The new RHUs are located on the GarrisonвЂ™s
north and south townsites
and include semi-detached
homes and townhouses.
All have attached garages.
These houses have been
specifically tailored with
military families in mind.
вЂњWe made sure they
were big enough to have
larger families,вЂќ said Francoeur. вЂњSo I think the people
will enjoy living in them.вЂќ
Master Corporal Kevin
Labelle of 450 Tactical Helicopter Squadron and his
family were the first to
move in. Having lived in
Petawawa for the past eight
years, they experienced a
range of RHUs.
вЂњWe are getting spoiled
right now,вЂќ said Cindy Labelle. вЂњIf we get posted, we
are going to have a hard
time finding another house
that compares to this one.вЂќ

вЂњTake a Stand against Family ViolenceвЂќ
Family violence can
happen anywhere, anytime, to anyone. October
13-17 is the CAF awareness week called вЂњTake a
Stand against Family ViolenceвЂќ. Below are some
tips to help you help a
friend who may be experiencing abuse.
GIVE HER/HIM
CLEAR MESSAGES
вЂў Violence is never okay
or justifiable.
вЂў Their safety and childrenвЂ™s safety are always
the most important issues.
вЂў Partner assault is a
crime.
вЂў She/he does not cause
the abuse.
вЂў She/he is not to blame
for the partnerвЂ™s behaviour.
вЂў Apologies and promises
will not end the violence.
вЂў She/he is not alone.
вЂў She/he is not crazy.
вЂў Abuse is not a loss of
control; it is a means of
First phase of RHU project completed ...
continued from front page
The open concept gives the home a modern feel
and the kitchen is a culinary chefвЂ™s dream. The washer and dryer are located on the top floor, which cuts
down on chore time.
The four bedrooms and three bathrooms are perfect for larger families. During the summer heat, the
central air came in handy and the RHUвЂ™s modern
build even helped cut down on utility bills.
вЂњItвЂ™s a lot more open, a lot of windows,вЂќ said Cindy.
вЂњItвЂ™s clear and bright.
вЂњTheyвЂ™ve come a long way from the old QвЂ™s, thinking about what the families would need for space,вЂќ she
added.
Any Canadian Armed Forces member is eligible to
live in one of these new RHUs.

control.
HELP HER/HIM MAKE
A SAFETY PLAN
вЂў Talk with victim about
planning for their safety
and their childrenвЂ™s safety.
вЂў Help her/him identify a
wide range of choices. To
stay or permanently leave
their relationship must not
be seen as the only choices.
вЂў Encourage and support
them, the victim, to make
their own decisions.
THINGS TO HAVE
HER/HIM CONSIDER
WHEN MAKING A
SAFETY PLAN
вЂў Make a plan about
what to do and where to
go if you are in danger.
Tell your children about
the plan if they are old
enough to understand.
вЂў If you have a vehicle,
make sure it has gas. Hide
an extra set of key.
вЂў Hide some money to use
if you have to get away.
вЂў Have a safe hiding place
to go to вЂ“ trusted friend,
neighbour, relative, shelter.
вЂў Work out a code word
that can be used on the
phone with someone you
trust if you are in danger.
вЂў If you think you may
have to leave your home,
some items you may want
to have ready to bring
with you are; identification (birth certificates,
health and social insurance cards, driversвЂ™ licences, immigration or citizenship papers, passports),
bank books, charge cards,
keys for your home and
car, essential medicines,
basic supplies for your
children including favourite toy or blanket.
вЂў Keep emergency numbers (including the policeвЂ™s) handy but hidden.
DONвЂ™TS
вЂў DonвЂ™t tell them what to
do, when to leave or when
not to leave;
вЂў DonвЂ™t tell them to go
back to the situation and
try a little harder
вЂў DonвЂ™t rescue them by
trying to find quick solutions;
вЂў DonвЂ™t suggest you try
to talk to their partner to
straighten things out;
вЂў DonвЂ™t tell them they
should stay for the sake of
the children.
Violence in any form is
never ok. If you are concerned about yourself or a
friend there is help available.

Petawawa Post
Municipal election and
school board trustee candidates found themselves in
the hot seat at the Sept. 30
All Candidates meeting at
the Petawawa Civic Centre.
The council and trustee
hopefuls were under sharp
scrutiny in their efforts
to claim one of six open
seats on council, and the
trustee spot for the Renfrew County District School
Board (RCDSB) and the
Conseil des Ecoles Publiques de LвЂ™Est de LвЂ™Ontario
(CEPEO).
A fiscally responsible, development-friendly council
that takes the burden off the
taxpayers while maintaining
infrastructure and promoting homes for seniors was
a common vision, though
each member of the panel
also shared their unique
ideas, projects and passions
with the large crowd in attendance.
They also fielded questions on a variety of subjects
including senior housing,
transportation, amalgamation, police contracting and
development.
The questions were chosen by a draw and assigned
to three randomly chosen
candidates.
It was the consensus of
three selected candidates
that while council was not
actively searching for a specific builder to create more
senior housing, it was a
very important future project.
вЂњThere are a lot of questions out there about senior
housing, anything from
renting to geared income
to seniors to other types of
senior living,вЂќ said current
Deputy Mayor Tom Mohns.
вЂњвЂ¦ We are in the process
of trying to work on something, but we are not actively pursuing a builder at this
date and time.вЂќ
вЂњItвЂ™s definitely something that this community
needs,вЂќ said candidate Gary
Serviss. вЂњAs more and more
people choose to retire here
in Petawawa and are unable
to keep their homes.вЂќ
вЂњOne thing I would like
to add is that I know that
there was a condo developer here in town that is
trying to put condo-style
homes packaged together,вЂќ
added councillor Murray
Rutz. вЂњвЂ¦ This is definitely
something that we need
and that I will be supporting it in any way we can.вЂќ
Several voters were curious as to whether the candidates would be willing to
create local public transportation.
вЂњIt is certainly something that was explored
a number of years back,
but presently there is no
thought towards installing
a bus service,вЂќ said councillor Theresa Sabourin.
вЂњI know that the base had
done that just a few years
back and it ended up not
being well utilized.вЂќ
Councillor James Carmody echoed SabourinвЂ™s
comments, but he went on
to add that a shuttle between Petawawa and Pembroke could be beneficial.
Wayne Bando said a
good alternative would be
to negotiate with local taxis
to create a service for the el-
derly and those with mobility issues.
On transportation as a
whole, Ann McIntyre highlighted challenges for access
routes to and from Garrison
Petawawa. Due to location,
the town has to seek approval from the county, the province, the federal government
as well as environmental
groups for any project.
вЂњIt isnвЂ™t just a quick
answer to one thing,вЂќ said
McIntyre.
Dominic Grosleau said
itвЂ™s his belief that a shuttle
from the downtown core to
the garrison would alleviate some of the traffic jams.
Chris Clouthier looked
at it from an active transportation perspective.
вЂњTraffic issues going into
the base are a problem right
now,вЂќ said Clouthier. вЂњвЂ¦ But
I think in some ways we can
build up our walkways and/
or bike paths to accommodate some of that.вЂќ
One of the residents
asked about the support the
candidates would provide
to the farmers and their
properties in town.
Grosleau admitted he
doesnвЂ™t know much about
farming, but believes strongly in their value in providing
food for the country.
вЂњShould something happen to the farming community in Petawawa I would
be more than happy to go
knock at those doors to see
what can be done to help
them out and research the issue further,вЂќ he added.
вЂњI think that as a town
and as council we should
assist those farmers in some
way,вЂќ said candidate Doug
Armstrong. вЂњMaybe some
type of tax reduction ...
and encourage them to use
more of their property.вЂќ
вЂњCertainly the municipality, as far as I know and
for as long as IвЂ™ve been on
council, has never played a
role in looking after farms,вЂќ
said councillor Treena Lemay.
вЂњThere are certainly provincial organizations that do that
and the Ontario Federation of
Agriculture is probably the
best one to do that.
вЂњIвЂ™m not sure what the
concern is that the farmers
have,вЂќ she added. вЂњIf it is
in relation to tax reduction,
unfortunately municipalities canвЂ™t do that. Sometimes people think we can,
but it is illegal.вЂќ
The question of amalgamation was greeted by
a clamour of voices and
all prospective councillors
quickly shot down the idea.
With so much construction in the area, some residents were worried about
the environment.
вЂњThe town has tried to
appease these people by
putting in to our subdivision agreements to planting
of trees,вЂќ said Mohns. вЂњвЂ¦
Any new subdivision now
must have trees planted.вЂќ
вЂњI believe that the town
has a beautification budget for tree planting and
the upgrading of some of
the facilities nearby,вЂќ said
Clouthier. вЂњвЂ¦ But there
is still need for more to be
done after the storm went
through. ItвЂ™s ongoing.вЂќ
вЂњOne thing that council
has made aware to anyone
who is building in our community is that green aspect
is the most important part
of our community as well as
introducing new businesses,вЂќ said McIntyre.

Petawawa Post, October 9, 2014, Page 5
Voters meet the candidates ... continued from page 4
вЂњвЂ¦ Sure we fell a little bit behind with
the storm, but that isnвЂ™t something we have
any control over. But I think that pushing
forward the way we are and trying to make
it a green community, I think people understand that is what we want.вЂќ
Some residents were also concerned
about the market being flooded by building permits.
To that end, Rutz said the market dedicates the amount of permits sold.
вЂњHowever, the town must work hand
in hand with the developers to make sure
we have the infrastructure in place so that
when we have new subdivisions coming
on board we have the capacity for all of the
waste water and all of the water going to
the subdivision,вЂќ said Carmody.
вЂњItвЂ™s the contractor that takes the risk to
build that home,вЂќ noted Armstrong. вЂњHe
may have to sit on it for a few years before
they can sell it or he may get lucky and sell
it. It depends on the market.вЂќ
Voters voiced concern that the rising
costs of the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP)
would result in a reduction of services or
augmentation of taxes. They asked the candidates what option would they choose.
вЂњA better question here is if the cost of
OPP services keeps on rising with half of
the costs between the OPP and the province, maybe it would be a better use of our
time to look at the economics of creating a
regional police force,вЂќ said Grosleau.
вЂњA reduction in our policing is something that I really donвЂ™t think we can do,
not at the rate of growth that we are having,
to be able to maintain the standard that we
have right now,вЂќ noted McIntyre. вЂњAs far
as increasing costs, I donвЂ™t know. I think it
is all going to come down to the contract.вЂќ
Serviss believes that Petawawa is a safe
and comfortable place to live.
вЂњI think a lot of that has to do with
family structure and good parenting,вЂќ
he said. вЂњвЂ¦ There is not a lot of crime in
this town. Having said that, I think it is
important that we maintain the present
policing that we have. As our population
continues to grow, I donвЂ™t think itвЂ™s wise
to do any cutbacks as far as what we have
right now.вЂќ
He believes that even if the costs of the
OPP rise, it wonвЂ™t be necessary to raise taxes, as the budget can be reworked.
Mayor Bob Sweet was acclaimed and
will be heading into his fifth term. He said
he is looking forward to working with the
new council and deeply appreciates the
faith put in him by his residents.
вЂњI find it very, very interesting to listen
to your ideas, your vision and platform going forward for our great community of
Petawawa,вЂќ said Sweet.
As for the potential school board trustees, improving school programs, building
up extracurricular activities and looking after the childrensвЂ™ well-being were common
threads in their platforms.
Elwyn Behnke is running for the
RCDSB trustee position. He spoke of his
long-time commitment to the area, his previous municipal experience as councillor
and reeve. and his involvement in a variety
of community projects including the establishment of the Petawawa Civic Centre.
As trustee, he said he would like to
promote learning of basic skills, like math-
ematics, and get back to the teaching of a
solid curriculum.
вЂњAs a trustee, I intend to promote the
basics of education that are now missing
and also the schoolвЂ™s extracurricular activities,вЂќ said Behnke. вЂњThe schoolвЂ™s extracurricular activities are very much needed.
When our children are there, they are not
on the street causing problems.вЂќ
Bryon Morris was his competition.
Morris has been a long-time resident of
Petawawa and he spent 35 years in education, starting as a teacher in 1971 at General
Panet. He served as a trustee for Petawawa
for 15 years, and believes in being available
to the public full time and being an advocate for parents.
вЂњEverything we can do to enhance their
future, we have to do it,вЂќ said Morris. вЂњAnd
IвЂ™ve just been so blessed that IвЂ™ve been able
to work with so many, literally thousands,
of our young people over the years.вЂќ
CEPEO Trustee hopeful Colette Stitt
has 26-years experience on the board. She
said that she knows the needs of the board
and how it functions.
Over the years, she has participated
in each and every decision that the school
board has taken since it was first created.
She also attends all the committee meetings.
Her goals are the success and the wellbeing of the students.
вЂњI listen and I take into consideration
the preoccupations of the parents, the students and members of the community,вЂќ
Stitt said in French. вЂњI aim for a high-quality French education. ItвЂ™s a passion for me.
I have a vision and years of experience. IвЂ™m
devoted 100 per cent.вЂќ
Her rival Andre Yonkeu spoke passionately about his desire to make French education schools better places for learning. He
has deeply immersed himself in his childrenвЂ™s education by joining several school
committees. He has also taught both at the
university and high school level.
If selected, he aims to make the students better citizens of tomorrow, and establish high-quality programs that answer
to unique student needs. He also plans to
further open lines of communication between parents and educators.
вЂњIf you vote for me, you are voting for
a school assisting community needs,вЂќ said
Yonkeu. вЂњIвЂ™ll make sure to have qualified
teachers and support workers to answer
the needs of our great community. If you
vote for me, youвЂ™ll be voting for transparency and regular communication, which is
very, very important.вЂќ
David Howard was acclaimed as trustee for the Renfrew County Catholic District
School Board. Robert Lemelin will return
as trustee for the French Catholic School
Board.
Councillor Frank Cirella was absent
due to illness, but was replaced by Peter
Hiscott who acted as his proxy.
The Rotary Club of Petawawa hosted
the All Candidates night, and former Petawawa councillor Cy Steele was the eveningвЂ™s moderator.
An advance vote will be held on Oct. 18
between 10 a.m. and 6 p.m. at the municipal offices. The regular voting day is Oct.
27 from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. at the Petawawa
Civic Centre.

Council hears about new OPP billing model
By Patricia Leboeuf
Petawawa Post
Speculations about the new Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) billing
model can now be put to rest.
Upper Ottawa Valley OPP Detachment Commander Inspector Jeff
Smith revealed the new costs of policing in Petawawa during the Oct. 6
council meeting.
For 2015, the billing model will
translate into a charge of $1,742,994
per year. This is an increase of $36,383
or 2.5 per cent over the 2014 budget of
$1,706,611 annually. This comes down
to $341.91 per property.
вЂњI donвЂ™t want people to think that
somewhere in 2015 they are going to
get a bill from the Town of Petawawa
for $341 for their police service,вЂќ said
Mayor Bob Sweet. вЂњThat number is already included in the tax rate that we
established. ItвЂ™s part of our budget going forward.
The new billing model indicates
that the town will be charged $145,250
on a monthly basis.
вЂњWe are looking at what it costs
to recruit a candidate, hire them, put
a uniform on them, train them, put
them in a car, dispatch them, supervise them once they get to the call,вЂќ
said Smith. вЂњWhat does that cost?вЂќ
The answer is $200.51 per property in Ontario.
The new model takes that base
fee and adds an additional charge for
each service call to the municipality.
These supplementary fees are estimated from a calculation done over
the past four years, in which the OPP
added the amount of calls and averaged the costs.
The billing model will then charge
$341.91 per property in Petawawa.
At the end of the year, this fee will
be recalculated to reflect more accurate numbers. This amount may rise
or fall according to how often police
services are used in the community.
If the community works together to
keep the amount of unnecessary calls
down, the town will ultimately pay less.
Sweet believes this is possible.
In the past, police were unnecessarily called to take care of graffiti, but
an education campaign brought the
calls down from 30 to two. A similar
technique could be used to keep nonemergency calls down, said Sweet.
The detachment has also hired
mental health professionals to help
cut down costs and get people the
help they need.
вЂњIf we show up and we just deal
with that issue that night, we will
likely be going back next week, next
month, but if we show up and we have
a mental health worker вЂ¦ then those
are the things that we are not going to
go back,вЂќ noted Smith. вЂњThatвЂ™s where
the savings are to the municipality because there are significant calls where
we go back time and time again.вЂќ
The formula to calculate the fees
was imposed by the province. It was
chosen to make it as fair and as equitable as possible across Ontario.
вЂњIn the past, we had some properties in the province, some not far from
here, who were paying under $100 a
year for total for policing, where we
had other municipalities paying $800
per property per year,вЂќ said Smith.
вЂњSo there was a significant gap.
вЂњWe had some municipalities that
were basically carrying the weight for
other municipalities,вЂќ he added.
According to Smith, the province
will not be making any extra money
from this billing system. Rather, they are
distributing the cost burden throughout
the various municipalities.
Sweet is quite pleased with the
number that was presented, particularly considering the levels of service.
вЂњI think that the community is
well served by the OPP for the dollars
that they are talking about,вЂќ he said.

Promoting mental wellness
one blue bike at a time
By Patricia Leboeuf
Petawawa Post
Clara HughesвЂ™ Big Ride left Renfrew
County and its people a lasting legacy in
the form of the Beautiful Blue Bike Project.
For the past few months, these blue
hued bicycles have been appearing in local
communities and at different events. Attached to the front of these bikes is a small
sign, which lists local phone numbers and
organizations for mental health crisis, support and information.
вЂњThe concept of the blue bike started
with ClaraвЂ™s Big Ride through the Bell LetвЂ™s
Talk initiative,вЂќ said KidActive Executive
Director Shauna Babcock. вЂњвЂ¦ I think there
is a symbol of hope in blue.
вЂњIt was a little bit of guerrilla advertising to have blue bikes pop up in our communities,вЂќ she added. вЂњYou start to wonder
what these blue bikes mean.вЂќ
Though it was meant to be a project
that lasted only during HughesвЂ™ fundraising ride, it was such a success that they
have now become a symbol for mental
health awareness, a mobile statue highlighting the efforts towards removing the
stigma of mental illness, and helping to
heal it through exercise.
вЂњWe are going to keep that going because they have really strong branding and
recognition throughout Renfrew County,вЂќ
Babcock said. вЂњThey are going to rotate so
you are going to have to be surprised (at
where they appear).вЂќ
Following on the heels of HughesвЂ™ momentum, KidActive, the Phoenix Centre
for Children and Families, the Breaking
the Silence Project, the Robbie Dean Family
Counselling Centre and the North Renfrew
Family services partnered together to create this project.
These key partners had a meeting at
the Deep River Town Hall Oct. 1, hosted
by the Physical Activity Network-Renfrew
County (PAN-RC), where attendees asked
themselves how could they continue to
support mental health now that Hughes
has completed her ride.
вЂњWeвЂ™ll continue in our collaboration and
partner with even more organizations to
build on Mental Health Awareness Week and
to continue to use the blue bike as symbolism
to support ending the stigma around mental
health and to promote mental health through
movement,вЂќ said Babcock.
вЂњThe beauty of this is how much of a
collective effort it was,вЂќ she added. вЂњIвЂ™m
very proud to be part of this group, very
honoured to be part of this group.вЂќ
HughesвЂ™s 110-day, 12,000 km journey
across Canada has been inspiring. Her own
battle with mental illness has caused community champions to emerge, carrying her
flame and her message of hope. вЂњEven before she cycled through, even after,вЂќ said
Babcock.
Babcock strongly believes that mental
health is integral to having a good community and strong families. Studies have
shown that even something as simple as a
walk around the block can do wonders for
the psyche.
Babcock hopes that the blue bike project will inspire children as well as adults to
take care of their mental health by engaging in physical activity.
Smile Cookies are gone but the smiles theyвЂ™ve
left in our community will last forever. Thanks
to your support, Tim Hortons will be donating
the entire proceeds to RogerвЂ™s House in the
amount of $5,880.00.

The War Horse Project
By Patricia Leboeuf
Petawawa Post
A new program is using horses to help
facilitate physical, mental and emotional
healing for local veterans dealing with the
after-effects of trauma.
The War Horse Project began on July
4, and has proven beneficial to those who
have participated. It has even been helpful for those who arenвЂ™t passionate about
horses, or those who fear them.
вЂњItвЂ™s not just about, вЂ�Hey, letвЂ™s play with
horses,вЂ™вЂќ said participant Sergeant Graham
Ridley. вЂњThere is a lot of therapy, a lot of
healing going on. There really truly is. It is
very powerful.вЂќ
Ridley has regained significant confidence through the program, noting itвЂ™s
been a valuable part of the healing process.
вЂњIвЂ™m not dismissing other forms of
treatment or anything like that, IвЂ™ve been
through the whole gamut of them, but
here you are applying what you are learning. You can weigh that and you can take it
or you can leave it, but you know you are
walking away with experience.вЂќ
The program, offered by Hope Reins
Equine Assisted Therapy Programs, features a laidback, easy-going atmosphere.
There are no attempts to push people into
directions they donвЂ™t want to go. There is
no psychoanalysis or clinical observation.
There are just horses and the people
who handle them in a safe and welcoming
environment.
But that doesnвЂ™t mean it isnвЂ™t work.
Participants have to learn the nittygritty of horse care. They learn how to approach the horse and saddle them as well
as how to gain its trust long before they are
allowed to ride.
Through these lessons, participants
subtly learn a lot about themselves and the
world around them.
вЂњWith a lot of activities, I think, there is
learning done by a lot of people that they donвЂ™t
even realize how much they have learned,вЂќ
said Master Bombardier Martin Langlois.
вЂњвЂ¦ All the emotional and trauma
things get looked after,вЂќ he added.
Participants arenвЂ™t assigned a particular
horse; rather the horse comes to them organically. Sometimes pairs that may seem com-
pletely unsuitable to each other at first glance
become incredibly close partners.
Sgt Ridley would have never chosen
Keeshe as his mount. He even originally had his eye on another horse, but the
mareвЂ™s personality won him over.
вЂњMe and Keeshe just clicked,вЂќ he said.
вЂњвЂ¦ You donвЂ™t know what you are going to
get with her. Is she going to be compliant
today? Is she going to be feisty? But I go to
her and she goes to me.вЂќ
According to War Horse Project program director Alison Vandergragt, the
horse is the one who actually does the
choosing, instinctively orienting itself to
a human whose needs it can satisfy. Their
personalities are reflected in the participants, helping them reach deep inside and
heal the wounds there.
вЂњI let the horses sneak in these things
(therapy) for us,вЂќ said Vandergragt. вЂњI
think that when the best laid plans are laid,
the horses always have an ulterior idea.
Theirs will always be better than ours was.
вЂњIt seems like the horses always know
better,вЂќ she added. вЂњвЂ¦ We just go with it.
ItвЂ™s always worked out well.вЂќ
Overcoming anxieties together has allowed the group to grow very close.
вЂњI do feel a bond with other people in this
program that I only feel with guys who have
been with me over there or in my unit,вЂќ said
MBdr Langlois. вЂњThatвЂ™s refreshing.
вЂњThatвЂ™s also kind of surprising for myself,вЂќ he added. вЂњAgain that teaches me
that I donвЂ™t have to be in my same unit forever. I can make friends outside of it.вЂќ
For both Sgt Ridley and MBdr Langlois,
the program has been so helpful they happily
promote it to everybody who will listen.
вЂњIt just has got to get out there,вЂќ said
Sgt Ridley. вЂњItвЂ™s just another tool for the
toolbox for guys to sort themselves out and
get better.вЂќ
The program lasts 16 weeks and can accommodate eight local men and women.
It was born from another pilot project
with the Phoenix Centre for Children and
Families. What Vandergragt and her other
facilitators noticed was that many of the children in that program had a military parent
suffering from a mental illness at home.
вЂњDoing the work at the Phoenix Centre
has been fantastic,вЂќ said Vandergragt. вЂњWe
do deal with the children and their concerns. But this is a great opportunity to get
the parents.
вЂњThey are all families who are struggling with the same things,вЂќ she added.
This is the first time this facilitation
team has dealt directly with veterans and
their injuries.
Though response has been more positive than expected, the program is looking
for more funds as it costs $12,000 to run it.
Because the facilitators believed so much
in the program, they have volunteered their
time, hoping to be able to demonstrate imperically the benefits and secure governmental funding. The Forbes family on BLine Road also donates the farm on which
they ride.
It has been so popular that Vandegragt
is holding two extra sessions.
вЂњRight now the program is just military,
but our goal is to include First Responders,вЂќ she said.

Project, please contact program director
Alison Vandergragt at vanderbrookfarm@

The Get Fit-Keep Fit Fall fitness
classes schedule has been released
and people looking to get in shape
have a bevy of options to choose from,
ranging from Shape Up classes for
beginners, AquaFit for swimmers, or
Warrior Fitness classes.
Sharon Singleton is one of the instructors at the Garrison PetawawaвЂ™s
Recreation Complex (Rec Plex).
вЂњWeвЂ™ve got really, really good
members,вЂќ she said. вЂњWe have really
great staff and they are a lot of fun.
ThatвЂ™s the big thing that we stress;
having fun in our classes.вЂќ
Different types of classes attract
different types of people, but Singleton believes that the Rec Plex offers
something for everybody.
вЂњThere are older adults, there are
young moms, every now and again
IвЂ™ll get pregnant ladies in or people
with different health issues,вЂќ she said.
вЂњItвЂ™s something that we are very
fortunate to have,вЂќ she added. вЂњPeople should take advantage of that.вЂќ
Singleton also teaches yoga and
people from all walks of life and experience levels join her classes.
вЂњYoga is one of those things that is
good for everybody,вЂќ said Singleton.
вЂњThere is so much stress and tension
that builds up in the body that yoga
helps you not only learn to let go of
the tension that gets held in your muscles, but it also frees up your mind.вЂќ
She loves seeing people blossom
under her tutelage.
вЂњPeople get so much out of it,вЂќ said
Singleton. вЂњвЂ¦ There are a lot of people
who find that the stress is too much and
after doing yoga, they are able to take
the things that they learned on the mat
and apply it to their daily lives.вЂќ
Karen Campbell has been attending fitness classes at the Rec Plex for
the past two years and has made it a
tradition to join Yogalates on Wednesdays as well as her usual Friday yoga
classes.
The 46-year-old particularly en-
License # M649527
joys the fact that the yoga classes allow her to stretch and work at her
own speed.
вЂњI love the fact that you can
take everything at your own pace,вЂќ
said Campbell. вЂњYou donвЂ™t ever feel
rushed and she tells you exactly
where you should be feeling the
stretches.вЂќ
She admits to being in better
shape and more flexible now than at
any other time in her life. The fitness
classes have allowed her to keep her
strength up despite the fact that she
cannot currently run due to a fractured foot.
вЂњItвЂ™s great for rehabilitation,вЂќ added Campbell.
Being able to work out at the Rec
Plex is also cost effective.
Even though Campbell isnвЂ™t a military member, her entire family benefits from having Community Access
Cards (CAC).
вЂњThese classes are affordable,вЂќ
said Campbell. вЂњThey arenвЂ™t compulsory so you can pick and choose when
to come and when not to come.вЂќ

And itвЂ™s off to the giant pumpkin boat races
By Patricia Leboeuf
Petawawa Post
You donвЂ™t need to be
Cinderella to travel by
pumpkin; just ask the six
brave souls who participated in two separate giant
pumpkin races on Sept. 28
at HugliвЂ™s Blueberry Ranch.
The event, now in its
ninth year, signifies the
start of the HugliвЂ™s Fall
Family Fun Season.
вЂњIt has been a tradition
for many families to come
and take in the giant pumpkin boat races and stay the
rest of the day to go through
the six-acre corn maze or
watch the pumpkin cannon
show or do all the other activities we have going on
today,вЂќ said co-owner Judy
Hugli. вЂњWe have these activities running all the way
through October.вЂќ
The event is usually an
enormous draw and this
year was no exception.
вЂњWe are thrilled with
the turnout,вЂќ said Hugli.
вЂњThe weather is beautiful for getting outside and
enjoying all the fun family
fall activities going on and
watching the boat races.
вЂњWe really appreciate the
community supporting the
events that we put on,вЂќ she
added. вЂњWe have a lot of fun
putting these events on and
we hope to continue doing it
for many years to come.вЂќ
The boats are carved out
of supersized pumpkins and
squashes donated from the
previous dayвЂ™s Giant Pumpkin Weigh-Off event.
She admits that it adds
to the entertainment factor
when one of the contestants
ends up falling out of his or
her vessel.
вЂњIt usually does happen,вЂќ said Hugli. вЂњWe usually see one of the competitors go for a swim.вЂќ
There are two categories for the races: selected
and celebrities.
The three first selected
racers were picked by a draw
while the second cropping
were carefully selected local
celebrities.
When Pembroke resident Sue KomsyвЂ™s name
was announced, her loud
cheer could be heard from
atop the hill. Despite being
a long-time fan of the races,
it was the first time she was
chosen to participate.
She experienced a rocky
beginning, getting stuck,
spinning in circles for a
large chunk of the event and
nearly falling in to the frigid
pond water. Yet despite her
setbacks, she never gave up
and she managed to squeak
out second place.
вЂњIвЂ™m very proud of myself,вЂќ said Komsy. вЂњI didnвЂ™t
lose faith. I wanted to come
in first, but second is o.k.вЂќ
Others traveled from far
away to attend the unusual
event.
After hearing about
the races from his partner,
Brennen Young knew he
had to make the trip from
Ottawa. It was happy happenstance that he was also
chosen. It was even happier
for him that he won first
place in his category.
Eight-year old Owen
Falhaber was also chosen
to race and was very excited to participate. His
mother Julie volunteered
to help him paddle the 879
lb pumpkin. Together they
came in third place.
The celebrity category
was composed of MyFMвЂ™s
Jamie Cybulski, Pembroke
Lumber Kings player Cale
List and Star 96вЂ™s Ashley
Thomson.
вЂњItвЂ™s just important for
the kids to know that if you
really focus on it and dream
anything can happen,вЂќ said
Cybulski, dispersing advice
to the large crowd.
But it wasnвЂ™t all fun and
games for the competitor.
вЂњItвЂ™s hard work,вЂќ he added. вЂњIt is probably the hardest that IвЂ™ve ever worked
and IвЂ™m not flexible. So once
I jammed in there, things
started going numb.вЂќ
Cybulski came in first followed by List and Thomson.
We also carry:
(Top left photo) It can be dangerous to race without a helmet. That is why Pembroke Lumber Kings
player Cale List was gifted a pumpkin helmet, which matched his ride. (Above) First place winner

pumpkin. (Above right) Despite some earlier steering difficulities, Sue Komsky earned a second
place finish. (Photos by Patricia Leboeuf, Petawawa Post)

Ottawa Valley Thunder wins home
opener 2-1 over Brockville
The Ottawa Valley Atom Thunder won their home opener Sunday morning at the Cobden Astrolabe
Arena with a two goal come-from-behind 2-1 victory over the visiting Brockville Angels. Maddie
McCaffrey opened the scoring for Brockville in the second period with an unassisted marker with
1:43 remaining. The Atom Thunder came on strong in the final period with a goal at 10:16 by Peyton
Gray, assisted by Sophie Procher and Emily George. George then tallied the game winner with 5:13
to play with some hard work deep in the Brockville end of the rink, assisted by Emma Misener. Alexis
Russell got the win in the net for the Thunder and had to be sharp early and often from a balanced
Brockville attack. The Atom Thunder also played on Saturday, October 4 at Kanata Recreation Complex and returned home to the Cobden Arena Oct 5 for a game against Smiths Falls. (Above) Julia
Swant (Eganville) carries the puck up the ice in the Ottawa Valley Atom Thunder game, Sept 28 in
Cobden. The Thunder came from behind to win the season opener. (Submitted photo)

OFSC brings back $180 Seasonal Snowmobile Permit
BARRIE вЂ“ This season, snowmobilers
can catch a big savings break by purchasing 2015 Seasonal Snowmobile Trail Permits in October. After a 21 per cent permit
sales spike last winter, the not-for-profit
Ontario Federation of Snowmobile Clubs
(OFSC) is selling Seasonal Permits again
for a special pre-season fee of $180 when
purchased online at www.ofsc.on.ca on or
before November 1, 2014.
вЂњThe $180-Nov 1 option we introduced
last winter represents a 30 per cent saving
off the regular Seasonal Permit fee of $260
and Ontario snowmobilers responded by
purchasing many more permits, вЂќ said
OFSC President Remi Sauve. вЂњA year over
year sales increase of 21 per cent is phenomenal in any business, and that, plus a
very snowy winter has generated a considerable momentum for snowmobiling
heading into 2015.вЂќ
The $180 Seasonal Permit spearheads
the success of a new business model for
trail operations by the OFSC that debuted
last winter. Known as вЂњA Framework For
ChangeвЂќ, the new plan is a comprehensive
approach, including more permit types with
varied fees, allocating more money where it
snows each winter, and promoting more efficient trail operations across the province.
вЂњWe think itвЂ™s important to keep OFSC
snowmobiling as accessible as possible for
Ontario families as well as for visitors from
outside the province. ThatвЂ™s why the OFSC
is very pleased with the success of A Framework For Change and a survey response
from this past spring showing that 95.8 per
cent of snowmobilers believe that Ontario
snowmobiling is enjoyable, very enjoyable
or extremely enjoyable,вЂќ said OFSC Executive Director Paul Shaughnessy.
The Ontario Federation of Snowmobile Clubs is a volunteer led not-for-profit
association providing a wide range of
quality programs and services to, and on
behalf of, its member organizations.

ROTARY CLUB OF PETAWAWA NEWS
By Dianne Collier, Public Relations
How quickly the time
flies when you are having
fun. ItвЂ™s been a busy summer for our Club with our
biggest fundraising event
вЂ“ our 16th Annual Golf
Tournament in July. A sincere thank you goes out to
all who participated in any
way to make the event such
a success.
Yours truly took an ex-
tended holiday to Nova Scotia and came back to a club
that was very busy preparing to host the All-Candidates (Municipal Elections)
meeting. Kudos to Rotarian Tina Robinson and her
volunteers for organizing
a very successful evening.
With a record attendance,
the 12 candidates had ample
time to state their views and
commitments as well as answer many well thought out
questions from those in attendance.
AN INVITATION
October brings another special event and
club members have been
extremely busy preparing
for our 7th annual edition
of The Art of Whisky or
Wine Tasting which will be
held on Saturday, 18 October at the Petawawa Pub-
lic Library commencing at
6:00 pm. Tickets $100 per
person. Donation receipts

If you havenвЂ™t attended
in the past, you can look forward to an evening of information and tasting of Whiskies or Wines paired with

THE DEFENCE ETHICS SURVEY RETURNS:
WE WANT TO HEAR FROM YOU!
The 2014 Defence Ethics Survey, now
on its fifth iteration and sponsored by the
Defence Ethics Programme, was released
in September. The anonymous, voluntary
survey will collect input from a random
sample of DND and CAF personnel, including reserves. Those chosen to participate have been notified.
Why is this survey important?
Ethics is a topic of vital importance in
the CAF and in DND. As such, the survey
is a critical tool that, based on respondent
feedback, will guide the development of
ethics initiatives and training programs.
In addition, results will assist senior leaders in creating conditions aimed at fostering ethical attitudes and behaviour.
Survey results will also contribute to
international research collaborations, allowing DND to obtain even more insights
from the results, while once more bringing visibility to Defence on the world
stage in this research field.
WhatвЂ™s new for this yearвЂ™s survey?
This yearвЂ™s survey will measure per-
ceptions of organizational conditions that
promote ethical behaviour with questions
such as, вЂњDoes your immediate supervisor set a good example in terms of ethical
behaviour?вЂќ. The survey will also measure ethical risk вЂ“ the likelihood of Defence personnel acting contrary to one or
more of the Defence standards or values.
And last but certainly not least, the survey
aims to be the most user-friendly ever.
It will be possible to submit it from any
computer with internet access (hard copy
delivery will be available on request). It
will also allow users to save a partiallycompleted survey if finishing it all at one
time poses a challenge.
Your responses matter!
If you were randomly selected to complete the survey, remember that every response matters. We appreciate and value
your input, and ask that you encourage
your peers and subordinates to complete
the survey if selected. All personnel will
be hearing about the results of this important survey.

FALL DRIVING TIPS
LOW BEAMS IN THE FOG
When driving in fog, high beams will reflect off the fog, creating
a вЂњwhite wallвЂќ effect, so set your headlights to low beam. This
setting aims the beam of light down toward the roadway. Also
reduce your speed and watch your speedometer. Fog creates a
visual illusion of slow motion when you may actually be speeding.
If fog becomes really thick use your road markers to guide you
and help you to stay in your lane.

WhatвЂ™s new on the home dГ©cor front this fall
(NC) Revamping our personal environment can not only add beauty, but
makes us feel better emotionally, as well
as physically, preparing us for the seasonal
turn and all that comes with it.
вЂњThe market is overflowing with new
and exciting introductions,вЂќ says Sally
Morse, director of creative services for
Hunter Douglas, a leading name in Canadian window fashions. вЂњThe new designs
are enough to make a big difference both
in your homeвЂ™s look and mood without requiring a major overhaul.вЂќ Here are some
of her favorite ways to update any home:
TrГЁs Glam Touches
A highly original wallcovering, light fixtures, or a gamut of accessories вЂ“ a few glamorous touches go a long way. Try papering the
foyer in a textured metallic material or add a
shimmering glow to the den with linear LED
lights hidden within the ceiling cove.
Updated Classics
Hunter Douglas Pirouette window
shadings are reminiscent of classically
hobbled Roman shades, but feature an innovative design of soft, horizontal fabric
vanes attached to a single sheer backing.
The vanes open and close for variable light
control and reduced glare.
New Alustra Pirouette shadings enhance these qualities with a luscious new
fabric, Charmeuse, which has the essence
of raw silk with a refined texture in eight
colours. A tinted back sheer is standard for
a colour-coordinated look.
They can be motorized and operated
with the Hunter Douglas Platinum App and
integrated into home automation systems.
Fashion-forward and so easy to manage.
Safety and Style
Hunter Douglas offers the widest variety of product operating systems that
eliminate or substantially reduce access
to lift cords. The designs are well-suited
for homes with young children. With the
LiteRise cordless lifting system simply use
your fingers to raise or lower the window
treatment. Even better, itвЂ™s now offered on
the companyвЂ™s roller shades.
Gold and Brass Touches
Try table lamps with brass or goldleafed bases or a wood desk with brassplated legs. Finish with the bronzed gold
Charmeuse featured in the new Alustra
Pirouette shadings.
вЂњSearch out the new introductions in
the world of interiors even if you havenвЂ™t
anything specific in mind,вЂќ counsels
Morse. вЂњOne small purchase could mean
a stunning change in your home, and in
your lifestyle.вЂќMore information is available online at www.hunterdouglas.ca.
Petawawa Post, October 9, 2014, Page 21
How to protect your cottage
during the winter months
(NC) вЂ“ Everyone loves the cottage. Well,
at least in the summer they do. Most people
fail to realize how much work goes into
properly maintaining one, especially during
the off-season when the weather is poor.
Owning and maintaining an all-season
cottage is very similar to maintaining a
home. You need to look after it year round
to protect it against aging and the weather.
However, the challenge with many cottages is that owners are often not there year
round. In most cases, they spend time at
the cottage in the spring, summer and fall
months, but seldom during the winter.
вЂњIf you are not at the cottage often during the winter, consider hiring a property
maintenance company to remove snow,
check plumbing, and perform general
maintenance,вЂќ says Wayne Ross, an insurance expert with Aviva Canada. вЂњThis
will give you peace of mind knowing your
property is safe and sound when you are
not present.вЂќ
There are two main concerns that need
to be addressed during the winter months:
Preventing the pipes from freezing
Having your pipes freeze can be a di-
17 ISABEL STREET
saster. One key issue with seasonal properties is that damage from frozen pipes may
not be coverage by your insurance policy
вЂ“ especially if the cottage is unattended for
four or more consecutive days.
Some tips include:
вЂў Shut off the water supply and have
the pipes and domestic water containers
drained; or
вЂў Get the plumbing and heating system
connected to a monitored alarm station
providing 24 hour service;
вЂў Maintain an internal cottage temperature at a level so that pipes donвЂ™t freeze.
Protecting the cottage from snow and ice
Even if you are not planning on being
at the cottage during the winter, it is still
important to stay on top of snow removal.
Consider hiring a company to clear the
snow not only from your driveways and
walkway, but also from your roof.
Keeping the roof and perimeters clear
of snow and ice will reduce the possibility of ice damming and other damage
from unwanted strain. More information
is available from your insurance broker or
online at AvivaCanada.com.

will be held three times a week, Monday, Wednesday and
Friday at 10 a.m.
Bid Euchre started its first instruction games on
Wednesday, October 8 at 1 p.m. If anyone is interested in
playing Bid Euchre, you are welcome to come out and try
a hand, as the first three sessions are going to be a learning
experience. There is a lot of enthusiasm for this activity
and the conveners will be Mary and Bill Stevens.
The Food Bank Drive is being held from October 6 to
24, and we welcome cash and cheque donations. Please
ensure that all food items have a best before label.
The Oktoberfest Dinner/Dance will be held on Thursday, October 23. The doors open at 5 p.m. with supper being served at 6 p.m. The cost of the dinner/dance is $25 for
members and $30 for non-members. The food is Schnitzel
and Bratwurst, with sauerkraut, vegetables, assorted salads, dessert, tea and coffee. We have a 50/50 draw, a door
prize and many spot dance prizes. The music is sung and
played by two local boys, Bob Landry and Bob Madill.

Wishing everyone a Happy Thanksgiving and hope
you can spend it with family and/or friends.
The LegionвЂ™s main mandate is to help Veterans and
our biggest event for this starts on the October 31 with
the Poppy Campaign. We will have volunteers out accepting donations in the hope that we can get the entire
town to wear a Poppy and show WE REMEMBER. If
you can spare a few hours to help raise money for our
Poppy Fund that is used ONLY to help Veterans, give
chairman Bob Lescombe a call at 613-687-1512.
Tickets for our annual Remembrance Dinner on Sunday, November 9 are now on sale at the bar. Those who
have served or are serving get their dinner for free; you
just need to pick your ticket up. Following dinner we are
going to hold a candlelight memorial at the cenotaph.
Candles can be purchased in memory of a loved one and
their names will be put on the candle. On the evening of
the 9th they will be lit and placed at the Cenotaph and will
stay there until the 11th. You can purchase them at the bar
or in the office weekday mornings.
Start planning your costumes now for our Halloween dance on Friday, October 31. We will have Jay and
the River Vibes playing for your musical entertainment.
Gather your friends and come out for some fun.
Pat Perry our membership chairman has started his
early bird campaign for 2015. You can pay your dues
early and save a few bucks. He will be at Friday Fish
and Chips to make it easy to renew or you can pay at the
bar during regular hours.
The bakers and buyers for our bake sale held this
