Canadian soldiers participate in Operation ANAKONDA
By Capt Eric Morrow
& Capt Jeremy Mathews
Canadian soldiers from
Oscar Company, 3rd Battalion, The Royal Canadian
Regiment took part in Exercise ANAKONDA-14.
This Polish Armed Forces joint exercise ran from
Sept. 24, 2014 to Oct. 3, 2014.
Almost 12,500 personnel,
including 750 soldiers from
NATO Allied countries
(Canada, Czech Republic,
Estonia, Great Britain, Hungary, Lithuania, the Netherlands and the United States)
participated in the exercise
held throughout Poland’s
training areas. Canadian soldiers worked with Polish airmobile forces to practice helicopter insertion drills using
the Polish MI-8 helicopter.
“This was an excellent
opportunity to work with
our Polish partners and learn
from each other;” said Major
Piers Pappin, the Operation
REASSURANCE Land Task
Force Commander. “The Polish and the Canadian forces
have benefited from a number of joint training exercises
over the last few years. This
has helped improve our soldier’s skills and our forces
interoperability.”
As part of Exercise
ANAKONDA, 7 Platoon,
Oscar Company, joined
Chosen Company from the
US Army’s 1-503, 173 (US)
Airborne Brigade Combat
Team, normally stationed
in Italy, to seize bridges in
advance of a larger multina-
tional force.
“I am very pleased with
the way 7 Platoon came together and completed the
mission,” said Captain Eric
Morrow, 7 Platoon’s Commander. “We were ready and
eager to show our capabilities as light infantry to our
allies, and we successfully
did just that.”
For many in the platoon,
it was their first opportunity
to work with foreign militaries in an operational context.
“I would definitely enjoy
working with them again,”
said Corporal Eric Demers.
“It was easy to work with
them, since our tactics are
similar.” Toward the end
of the mission, Canadian
soldiers and their American and Polish counterparts
were seen exchanging badges in a show of multinational
camaraderie.
Operation
REASSURANCE refers to the military
activities undertaken by the
Canadian Armed Forces to
support NATO assurance
measures through the provi-
sion of military capabilities
for training, exercises, demonstrations and assigned
NATO tasks. The Canadian
Armed Forces’ response in
support of NATO’s request
promotes security and stability in Central and Eastern
Europe, and demonstrates
Canada’s steadfast commitment to allies in the region.

CAF leads the charge in local shoreline cleanup
This group of CAF personnnel were just starting
out along their section of
Black Bear Beach during
the Great Canadian Shoreline Cleanup on Oct. 8. Every year, tens of thousands
of Canadians take action
against shoreline litter by
participating in the annual
cleanup, one of the largest
environmental events in
Canada and the third largest
cleanup in the world. (Post

By Bruce Peever
Petawawa Post
The beach areas at Black Bear, Kiska and around Jubilee Lodge are now much cleaner due to the Great Canadian Shoreline Cleanup.
More than 40 members of the Canadian Armed Forces stationed at Garrison Petawawa took part in the Oct.
8 cleanup. Garrison Petawawa Assistant Environmental
Officer Aubrie Carruthers noted this is the fourth year
of removing shoreline litter along the Ottawa River.
Garrison Petawawa Environmental Officer Michelle
Perry said the cleanup serves two purposes.
“There is still a lot of garbage and we have a lot of
shoreline to look after. While we are doing this we
are also helping Personal Support Programs (PSP) as
their staff are not having to do this on their time,”
Perry stated.
After instructing participants, Carruthers gave out
protective gloves, clear garbage bags and blue recycling bags. Separate groups were sent to clean up Kiska
Beach and Jubilee Lodge. At the end of the day data on
the amounts collected were sent to the International
Coastal Cleanup, a global program managed by the
Ocean Conservatory.
According to organizers, shoreline litter is one of the
most widespread pollution problems endangering our
waters, but it is completely preventable. Shoreline litter can leach harmful chemicals into the water, be accidentally eaten by wildlife, injure fellow humans, or
entangle aquatic animals and birds.

The polls have closed
and the public has spoken
- Herman Street Public
School is the $10,000 winner of the Indigo Love of
Reading, Adopt a School
contest.
At midnight on Oct. 4,
the school topped 19,929
adoptions and 645 donated
books and were officially
declared the winners on
Oct. 9.
Before voting closed,
the school had been
in a close race against
Galloway Road Public
School in Scarborough,
ON. Both schools’ donations and adoptions
climbed parallel to each
other. When one school
squeaked out in front,
the other managed to
overtake. Even during
the last day, votes for
both schools were neck
in neck with just a 700 or
so vote advance for Herman Street School.
Teacher Jen Young said
this incredibly close margin is due to the school’s
parents as well as the
community’s
unwavering help. Throughout the
contest, they have been
determined to see Herman
Street win. Even other
schools in Renfrew County
turned out to help.
“We’ve just been so
thankful for the help of
the community,” said
Young. “I’m sure our
friends (were) happy for it
to end because we won’t
harrass them anymore,”
she added with a laugh.
On the last day of voting, the school held a Bake
and Craft Sale at the Coles
Without the help of the students, their parents and the community as a whole, the Herman Street
Elementary School could have never gotten so many votes. In the back row, from left, are Hannah
Young, Jen Young, Sheila Kramer, Crystal Black, Chrissie Clement, Diane Bennett, Veletia Richards, Laurie Tessier and Assistant Manager for Coles Kim Connors. In the front row, from left, are

Bookstore in Pembroke,
with funds going to the
library. It was also the perfect opportunity to canvass area residents for a
few last minute votes.
Young first brought
up the idea of having the
school adopted by Coles
in the hopes of bringing
in little bit more money
for the school’s library.
When the contest was
announced, she never
dreamed they would go
so far.
“We didn’t think we
could do it,” said Young.
“Because we are such a
small community compared to Toronto, but once
we got our parents involved and the community
involved it just snowballed
from there.”
SISIP MONEY
MANAGEMENT COURSE
SISIP will be delivering a general financial course to
military members and their spouses in order to assist
them in managing their personal finances and prevent
financial difficulty. This course is designed to assist in
learning new money management skills and/or enhancing existing skills.
This course will be delivered on 6 November 2014
and on 13 November from 0900 – 1500hrs. It is offered
at no cost and location will be the 2 RCHA Theatre (P115). Spouses are welcome to attend. Please note that
childcare will not be provided.
Interested members and/or spouses can contact the
SISIP (Petawawa) Office at 613-687-0025 and Ms Lynn Belley, the SISIP Petawawa Administrative Assistant, will be
taking registrations. It would be appreciated if interested
members and/or spouses register prior to the course dates.
With just 248 students,
Herman Street may be
small in size, but it is huge
in spirit, Young added.
“We are third out of
Canada so that tells you
about our community,”
she said. “People really
care about literature.”
Before the win, the
school’s library had a budget of $900, mostly composed of donated books
and money collected from
Scholastic Book Fairs.
Many of the current books
are outdated or damaged.
This
would
have
changed regardless of
the contest’s outcome as
they managed to bring
in an additional $9,400.
These funds were entirely
raised through community involvement including
Coles’s adoption, the bake
sale, online adoptions,
fundraisers and other
miscellaneous donations.
“We can’t even wrap
our heads around it,” said
Young. “More would just
be an added bonus.”
Principal Veletia Richards may be ecstatic to see
her school top the chart,
but she is even more awed
by the outpouring of community spirit.
“The students, the parents, the staff, the community, the extended community … in a word? Just
amazing,” said Richards.
“(They are) outstanding
in their support. They are
go-getting and just don’t
stop.”
Buying new books
with the funds is a given, but Richards and
Young hope to redesign
the library somewhat by
opening it up and adding shelves to make it a
more comfortable place
to spend time in. They
also plan on extending
their collection of French
books.
“We are extremely
grateful and are very
proud of our supporters,”
said Richards. “We could
not have done this without you.”

Wager lands teachers on roof, nets $1,300 for Terry Fox Foundation
By Patricia Leboeuf
Petawawa Post
When one makes a bet, one must be
prepared to face the consequences, even if
those consequences mean sleeping on top
of Herman Street Public School.
Teachers Mike Popke and Kerr Childerhose found out the hard way after they
made a wager with the school’s students.
If all 248 of them raised $5 each, totaling
$1,250, for the Terry Fox Foundation, both
would brave the elements and sleep outside on the roof.
The kids raised $1,300.
So the teachers found themselves
camping on high on Oct. 3, trying to
while away the 12 hours they had to
spend up there. The rain caught them a
few times, but despite this, it wasn’t all
that bad.
“Let’s just say we weren’t roughing
it,” said Popke. “We had a tent, we had
some lawn chairs and a projector with a
movie screen. It was quite fun.”
Some of the teachers and students
even took pity on them and brought up
warm beverages and treats. Popke and
Childerhose were particularly touched
when their students brought up a special
homemade book, containing humorous
versions of their unique sleepover.
The student’s desire to win the bet
wasn’t the only driving force for raising
so much money. It was also the cause.
“I don’t know if they really wanted to
see us on the roof or if they really want-
ed to see a cure for cancer,” said Popke.
“Either way, it was a win-win for everybody.”
Popke said he believes that the student’s élan for fundraising just proves
an altruistic community spirit is alive
and well at Herman Street and that attitude is one of the things that makes
the school shine.
“Whether it is in the school, or the
whole community with parents and everybody, they help with the goals that the
school sets,” said Popke. “Community is
important.”
Principal Veletia Richards is proud of
her students for supporting such a worthy cause.
She’s also proud that her teachers followed through with the wager instead of
trying to back out.
“They are such good sports,” she
said. “It’s all in the spirit of the school
and raising funds for Terry Fox.”
Though the teachers ended up sleeping outside, it wasn’t a given. By Friday
morning, the fundraising goal had still
not been reached. The teachers were so
sure that they wouldn’t have to sacrifice the comfort of a warm bed that they
hadn’t packed.
But the generous students and their
families prevailed, managing not only to
meet the goal, but also to surpass it.
“We are such a small school, just 248
students, and it is outstanding to see all
the community support that we have,”
added Richards.
Growing the Gridiron is a FREE youth football skills
development clinic designed by Ontario University
Athletics (OUA) to promote fun, participation and
safe play in football.
The program is a non contact, non equipment football clinic,
open to boys and girls between the ages of 7 and 14.
Every participant will receive a free Growing the Gridiron
jersey at the end of the session, as well as a player’s skills
booklet.

Burning wood? Don’t place your 2 Service Battalion promotion
ashes in the recycling bin!
PETAWAWA- Each year, the Town of Petawawa Fire Department responds to fires that
are caused by improper disposal of hot ashes
from fireplaces, wood stoves or pellet stoves.
The fact is that ashes from fires can remain
hot enough to start a fire for many days after
you think the fire is out. The exact amount of
time for complete extinguishment and cooling
depends on many factors such as how hot the
fire was, what was burning, how much unburned fuel remains, etc.
To be safe, simply treat all ashes as hot,
even when you think they had time enough
to cool.
To properly dispose of ashes we recommend the following:
• If possible, allow ashes to cool in the area
where you had the fire for several days.
These devices are designed to contain their
heat safely.
• When it is time to dispose of the ashes,
transfer them to a metal container and wet
them down.
• Keep the metal container outside your
home and away from any combustibles until
the refuse is hauled away.
• DO NOT place any other combustibles in
the metal container.
• DO NOT use a combustible container.
More Fireplace Safety Tips
• Have your chimney inspected annually,
and cleaned as necessary, by a professional
chimney sweep to ensure it is clear of obstructions and creosote.
• Repair any cracks in your chimney and
fireplace.
• Use fireplace screens to keep sparks and
fire debris inside the fireplace.
• Do not use an accelerant to start a fire.
• Ensure the fire is completely out before
going to bed or leaving the house.
• Make sure the area around the fireplace
is clear of all combustibles (1 m or 3 feet
away is a good rule).
• Keep all children and pets a safe distance
from fireplaces.
• Install both smoke and carbon monoxide
alarms.
• Keep a fire extinguisher on hand.
• Observe all safety precautions when using outdoor fireplaces they can be just as
dangerous as indoor units.

Legion recognition of members - part one
By Bob Howell
Honours and Awards and
Vice president, Royal Canadian
Legion Branch 517 Petawawa
This is the first installment of our Legion recognition articles. The accompanying photo depicts a
chosen few members at the
unveiling of The Petawawa
Community Cenotaph on
August 5, 2014. At the far
left and unfortunately not
too visible unveiling the
Korea Stone is a Korea Vet,
Comrade Russ Murphy.
Russ enrolled in 1951
and went to Korea with the
3rd Battalion PPCLI as a Bren
Gunner. From 1964-65 he
spent time in the Gaza with
the UN and in 72/73 was in
Cairo again with the UN.
He was with the Canadian Airborne from 1968
to ‘72 and is a survivor of
the fatal Jump which took
seven lives in 1968. Russ retired in 1978.
The next stone being
unveiled is the WWI stone,
and representing the WWI
vets is CWO (Ret’d) Comrade Ralph Storey, a Cold
War Vet.
Ralph entered the Canadian Army Militia in
1953 into 22 Medium Bat-

tery RCA in Napanee, ON.
He then joined the Regular
Force in 1954 as an Engineer Sapper. He spent time
in Germany with 2 Canadian Infantry Brigade Group

1974, Master Warrant Officer Storey was with an Engineer Troop in Cyprus.
Ralph was appointed
RSM of 2 CER in 1980 then
as the first Branch Chief
Warrant Officer for the Canadian Military Engineers.
Ralph later retired in 1982
after 28 years of loyal service to his country.
The main stone was unveiled by The Honourable
Cheryl Gallant and Town
of Petawawa Mayor Bob
Sweet.
The WWII Stone is the
next one to be unveiled and
this was done by WWII Vet
Comrade Dennis Gray.
Dennis joined The Canadian Army in 1942 as a
Gunner. He completed his
basic training then went to
New Market ON.
He was then sent to Fort
Sandurich, Halifax, and
was placed on the list to go
overseas with 18 of his comrades. But just prior to his
departure, he received new
orders to go to Partridge Island in New Brunswick.
The last stone to be unveiled was the Afghanistan
Stone and this was done by
WO Comrade Ed Storey, an
Afghanistan Vet himself.
Ed joined the Lanark &
Renfrew Scottish in 1978,
then went to the Governor
General’s Foot Guards in
1980. He joined the Canadian
Military Engineers in 1982.
He eventually was posted
to 1 Intelligence Company
the 1st Canadian Division
HQ Kingston and in the
next six years, deployed
to The Former Yugoslavia,
Central Africa and Central
America, then in 2000, to
Bosnia.
WO Storey retired from
the Regular Force in 2008
and transferred to the P Res
as a Diarist with the Canadian Expeditionary Force
Command HQ (CEFCOM)
Between 2009 and 2011 he
spent his time with five

which included time in
Camp Mirage and Kandahar. He helped manage the
Repatriation of the Camp
Mirage Memorial of the
Fallen back to Canada.
Ed still serves with Canadian Joint Operations
Command HQ in Ottawa.
The Colour Bearers are
all Cold War Vets. Carrying
the Canadian flag is Comrade Irwin “Curly” Andrews, a very well known
community member who
has been awarded numerous certificates of appreciation and awards for his
services to the community
and the Legion. “Curly”
has spent 28 years with the
Canadian Army as Gunner
and Service Corps with various tours with the UN.
Carrying the Canadian
Ensign is Comrade Frank
Shea, who has spent time in
Germany as an Air Defence
Gunner.
Carrying the Union Jack
is a 30-plus year Vet, again
with various UN tours,
Comrade Pat Perry.
He is followed by a retired Royal with 25-plus
years, Comrade Mark Blais
who has various tours with
the UN, Bosnia and Yogo-
slavia.
Carrying the UN flag is
a UN tour and CFE Vet with
22 years service, Vic Parro,
and last but not least, carrying the Legion Banner, is
a retired Gunner with 43
years service and a UN tour
as well as two tours in CFE,
Comrade Vice President
Bob Howell.
In charge of the Colour
party was our recently
voted in Sergeant-At-Arms
Comrade John Jones, a former member of the well
known PPCLI.
All these proceedings
were under the watchful
eye of the Past President
and also 30-plus year Cold
War and UN Vet, Comrade Bob Lescombe and
President Comrade Helene
Hahn, a Rawanda Vet with
27-plus years.
So you can see that
there are many retired
members and still serving
members that do belong to
the Legion.
In the future, there will
be more mention of other
Vets and non-Vets that are
a part of the Legion and
what they have contributed
to the Legion and the community.
Tickets for our Remembrance Dinner on Sunday,
November 9 are now available at the bar. Those who
have served or are serving in the military get their ticket for free, all you have to do is come and pick it up. It

Pembroke Animal Hospital hosts Service of Remembrance & Pet Blessing
By Patricia Leboeuf
Petawawa Post
Losing a pet is hard,
but the Pembroke Animal
Hospital held a special
Service of Remembrance
and Pet Blessing to help
heal that pain.
For the second year,
Father Tim Moyle led a
small, solemn group with
pet related prayers and
poems.
“It’s fun to prepare for
(the ceremony),” he said.
“It gives me a chance to
look over a whole bunch
of animal prayers and I
look back at old pictures
of my old pets - I have lots
of fond memories.”
The ceremony was
held on Oct. 4, which coincided with the Feast
Day of Saint Francis of
Assisi, patron saint of animals.
“It’s the traditional
day for blessing of pets,”
said Father Moyle.
As a pet owner himself, he knows the sting
of losing a beloved pet,
but also the pleasure that
comes from their compan-
ionship.
“They are very much
part of our lives,” he said.
“They are part of our family. They have a special
part of our heart.”
He said he believes
that God pours His blessings on pets.
“I always say that dog
and God are the same
word spelt backwards
and that in the faithfulness of the dog, in the
trust that he puts in me as
his owner, is very much
qualities that we should
have with God,” said Father Moyle.
The reaction to his
ceremony has been overwhelmingly positive.
“For people who are
coming to remember a pet,
it allows them to experience a sense of continuity,”
said Father Moyle. “For
those who have living pets,
like I do, it gives a chance
to show them off, make
new friends and receive
the gift of God’s blessing.”
Dr. Richard Hobart
wanted to host this ceremony to help comfort
those who have lost a fur-
ry family member.
Through his work at
the hospital, he’s seen the
loss and the grief that accompanies that loss.
“People feel a strong
connection to their pets,”
he said. “When they die,
they don’t just forget
about them. There is a
little void, a little hurt.
“These
ceremonies
help people get over their
long-term grief,” he added.
It can help bridge the
spiritual gap, filling up the
emotional hole that some
pet owners may feel, he
added.
“For some people, it
is a very important part
of the process,” said Dr.
Hobart.
For many people, a pet is a
family member and the pain
of losing an animal can
cut deep. To help heal those
wounds, the Pembroke Animal Hospital hosted a Service Of Remembrance and
Pet Blessing on Oct. 4 for
those who have lost pets.

students support the troops
St Francis of Assisi School appreciates how hard our Canadian troops work on a daily basis
and they always like to find creative ways to support our service members. Recently, Ms Catherine Hewitt’s grade 1 class decided to support the troops by dressing up in army outfits and
creating military theme posters for their class photo. The students were very excited to be a
part of this experience and they hope our Canadian troops return home safety. (Back row): Tyler Boswell, Taryn Wisniewski, Abigail O’Regan, Caiden Mirault-Lamirante, Austin Luther,

Cavalry Cup Competition 2014
By Lt Trevor Smith
1 Tp Ldr A Sqn RCD
The Royal Canadian
Dragoons’ (RCD) second
annual Cavalry Cup (Cav
Cup) Competition was
held the week of 14-19
August 2014 in Garrison
Petawawa. The Regiment
conducted a dismounted
Troop level competition
to confirm the soldiering
and tactical skills of its
fighting troops; during
the week, each Squadron
(Sqn) rotated through the
48-hour competition that
was designed to push
Dragoons to their mental
and physical limits while
fostering esprit-de-corps.
Day one started with
an early arrival to the
first stand of the competition, the Army fitness
test, which consisted of
a 5km run, push-ups, situps and pull-ups. Cpl
Hatfield and Cpl LabergeBedard posted excellent
times, helping A Sqn start
off on the right foot. Immediately after the test,
troops moved back to Sqn
lines for a much needed
shower and some breakfast before moving on to
the next task, the Load
Bearing March.
The
13 km march was to be
completed in less than
two hours 26 min with
each soldier carrying
full fighting order, their
personal weapon and a
ruck sack. On arrival at
D range, troops dropped
their rucks, quickly hydrated, and prepared for
the shoot. Troops zeroed
their C8s, and under the
Range Safety Officer,
MCpl Monaghan’s, careful watch completed the
application. A Sqn troops
showed their proficiency
with their personal weapons scoring very high on
the shoot. Afterwards,
troops moved to the Armoured Fighting Vehicle
(AFV) recognition and
Regimental history test
under the supervision of
the Unit Training Officer,
Capt Boire. The test confirmed soldiers’ ability
to identify AFVs and recall our Regimental history. Day one concluded
with troops moving into
a bivouac for some welldeserved rest.
Day two proved to
be the more challenging
day of the competition.
As competitors departed
for the Navigation (Nav)
stand at 0600hrs, they arrived to find that there
was also a first aid stand.
The scenario indicated
that a Coyote had crashed
into a woodline and the
crew were severely injured. Troops quickly extracted the crew from the
vehicle, administered first
aid, and moved them to
safety. A helicopter landing site was established
and a request to extract
the casualties sent. Afterwards, troops navigated
to eight Nav points over
an 8km route through
dense forest. Troop leaders divided their troops
into smaller teams to
quickly finish the stand.
The CBRN stand followed
with troops donning the
dreaded “bunny suit”,
answering 5 questions on
CBRN, reacting to a gas
attack, marching 4km in
CBRN dress, and finally
- decontaminating their
equipment. It was a great
refresher for the troops,
and a “gut check” that
turned out to be much
harder than anticipated!
The tactical portion
of day two was run by D
Sqn. Troop Leaders received orders, conducted
battle procedure, and provided their back briefs to
(Above) 1 Troop moves into cover to avoid enemy forces during the point recce stand. (Top right) Members of A Sqn cross the Chalk Bay as they infiltrate enemy territory. (Submitted photos)
D Sqn OPIs. The troops
paddled assault boats
across Chalk Bay infiltrating enemy territory
to conduct a point recce
of their objective; and in
the case for 1 Troop, this
turned out to be an enemy
Command and Control
node. Troops moved tactically once they reached
shore to ensure that they
were not seen by the vigilant enemy force. After all
critical information was
confirmed at the objective, the troops still had to
“hump” it to the release
point (RP). The enemy
force, operating in mounted patrols with LAV III,
G wagons, ATVs ensured
that the competitors’
route to the RP wasn’t an
easy one. After a 3km
march through challenging terrain each Troop
reached the last stand;
weapons assembly, HF
radio assembly, and a patrol report. All three tasks
were conducted simultaneously, which proved to
be difficult in the dark.
Upon completion, troops
boarded a truck back to
Sqn lines for the night.
Once again, Cav Cup
proved to be a difficult
and demanding compe-
tition that pushed Dragoons to their physical
and mental limits. Each
member of A Sqn was
proud to have completed
the competition and will
continue to build upon the
lessons learned.

MARIA ROBINSON - PRESIDENT
A great business plan
can go a long way toward
transforming an idea into
a successful business. The
following are a few tips for
would-be business owners looking to draft memorable business plans.
* Don’t be too wordy.
Potential
investors,
whether they’re venture
capitalists, family members or lending institutions, don’t want to be
handed a manifesto masquerading as a business
plan. A good business
plan is brief and gets to
the point early on, spelling out why the business
is worthy of an investment and how it is going
to be successful.
* Define what makes
your business unique.
Your business plan is similar to a sales pitch, one
that you will need to turn
your idea into a business.
A successful sales pitch
should define what makes
your business unique.
Clearly define what separates your business from
others and why these differences make you and
your business idea a solid
investment.
* Be specific as to how
you will generate revenue. Good business
plans clearly indicate how
business owners plan to
generate revenue. Simply
selling products won’t be
enough to convince savvy
investors, who want to
see a sales model summarizing how customers will
be drawn to a business.
* Define your market.
When defining the market
for your business, include
its size and the specific
people within that market
you intend to target.

Renfrew County Red Cross turns 75
By Patricia Leboeuf
Petawawa Post
The Canadian Red Cross has made its
home in Renfrew County for the past 75
years, helping area residents through times
of crisis and strife.
“It’s wonderful to know that it’s here
and still existing and helping our communities,” said Red Cross Community Services Coordinator Denise Stencell.
To celebrate this milestone, the Renfrew
County branch held an open house on Oct. 4.
“(It) lets people know what we do in
the community,” said Stencell. “We do offer First Aid, we do offer disaster services.
We have (medical) home equipment that
we rent out to people.
“We are here to help and we can help
them,” she added.
The realities of the Canadian Red Cross
today may be a little different than they
were when the organization first opened its
doors, but the mandate remains the same.
“We are there when people need us,”
said Stencell. “… We are there in times of
disaster or distress.”
The organization also teaches surivival
and prevention measures including First
Aid and CPR, and how to create emergency
preparedness packs.
“Most people don’t know what they
need to survive for 72 hours without power, without water, without all these things.
Red Cross can help prevent and help prepare for those (times).
“We offer workshops for that sort of
thing,” she added.
All Red Cross branches provide disaster relief, First Aid training and water
safety programs, but some branches differ
slightly in what programs they offer.
Locally, Red Cross volunteers knit over
1,000 mittens for the Warm Hands, Warm
Hearts program. These mittens are then
distributed throughout the community,
guaranteeing that no child will have to
suffer the harsh winter cold without some
protection.
The open house was also an opportunity to thank volunteers for their hard work
as well as all the sponsors and community
members who have helped out throughout
the year.
“Volunteers are what run the Red
Cross,” said Stencell. “They are the heart of
the Red Cross. Without them, none of these
programs would succeed at all.”
During the event, attendees could win
prizes, enjoy a barbecue and entertainment, as well as take home information on
its various services.
The jewel of the day, however, was the
chance to explore the new Red Cross Command Module for Disaster Management.
This giant red trailer can be used for a
wide range of things, but mainly it acts as
a center during disasters, allowing the Red
Cross to help a community in distress without further draining its resources.
“We like to come as self-sufficient as we
can,” said Deborah Smith, Comunity Services Advisor for Disaster Management.
“So we aren’t relying on that community to
provide things for us in order for us to provide services to the citizens … so not to add
an extra burden on the community while
they get back on their feet.”
It provides a place to run outreach programs and provides shelter, radio, electricity and Wi-Fi.
The Ontario Trillium Foundation funded it. It arrived a little less than a month ago
and it still requires a few finishing touches
such as an awning and antennas.
There are only five such command
modules in Ontario and it is shared between Renfrew County, Lanark County
and Ottawa.
“We are really excited about it,” said
Smith. “It’s so rural around here in so many
places and a lot of communities don’t have
huge facilities for responders that would
come in case of a disaster,” she added. “So
it’s a really, really helpful thing to have for
disaster management around here.”

MRI campaign, mental health support to receive funds
from Jason Blaine’s 2015 charity concert and golf tourney
By Patricia Leboeuf
Petawawa Post
Country music singer and songwriter Jason
Blaine announced his 2015
charity concert and golf
tournament will be adding the Pembroke Regional
Hospital’s MRI campaign
to his roster of charitable
organizations.
The Jason Blaine Charitable Fund Committee (JBCFC) has also announced
it will be providing $5,000
for Mental Health First Aid
training for not-for-profit organizations. This will allow
up to 33 staff and volunteers
to attend a 12-hour certificate course designed by the
Mental Health Commission
of Canada.
Mental Health First Aid
is a first responder training
program providing individuals with the knowledge to
support people who are experiencing a mental health
crisis until professional services can respond.
The decision to fund
these new beneficiaries was
chosen after a long discussion, weighing the needs of
the community.
“This is a really serious issue in the community,” Blaine said by video.
“Numerous people have
reached out to me by email
or social media and we
talked about how best we
can shine a light on it, but
also try to make a meaningful difference and this is a
good way to start.”
In 2014, Blaine raised
Petawawa Centennial
Family Health Centre news
PETAWAWA - What’s new at Your Petawawa Centennial Family Health Centre?
Fall/Winter Nutrition Sessions!
The Petawawa Centennial Family
Health Centre (PCFHC) provides a broad
range of primary health care and health
promotion services to protect, preserve,
and promote the health and well-being of
residents of the Town of Petawawa and
area. The Dietitian plays a role in this collaborative model of health care. Judy Hill,
a Registered Dietitian and Certified Diabetes Educator, has been fulfilling this role
since the fall of 2008.
The largest aspect of Judy’s role at the
PCFHC is patient counselling. Subjects
are varied and may include weight management, heart healthy eating (low cholesterol), metabolic syndrome, diabetes
or pre diabetes, chronic conditions, and
nutrition through the lifecycle. Judy may
also participate with the RN and the client
in OTN (telemedicine) sessions with Dr.
Hierlihy an Ottawa endocrinologist.
Regular nutrition sessions covering
a myriad of topics have been held over
the last five years (at the PCFHC, in the
Board Room) in the fall, winter and spring
seasons. These sessions are open to the
community at no charge. Topics have included: Menopause, Vitamin D, Calcium,
Supplements Simplified (with S. Coulas,
Pharmacist), Slow Cooker meals, Mindful Eating, and Peas, Beans and Lentils to
name a few. This year’s nutrition sessions
include the following:
• Oct 16: 1-2:30 pm: Is That Irritable Bowel Syndrome or Celiac Disease?
• Nov 27: 1-2:30 pm: And Just in Time for
Christmas: Alcohol!

There may be a $5 charge for these sessions.
A new and exciting partnership between Chef Bob Thompson (and Leah
Costello) of Heritage Manor and the
PCFHC started this summer and may be
continuing into the fall months. These
cooking demonstrations (followed by
taste testing!) are being held in the Rotary
Room of the Petawawa Public Library.
Please contact Judy at 613-687-7641
and leave your name and contact information if you are interested in attending a
nutrition session. The list of sessions will
also be posted on the PCFHC website.
$50,000 through a charity concert and golf tournament with funds going to
the Boys and Girls Club of
Pembroke, the Pembroke
Petawawa District Community Foundation and the
Algonquin College Capital
Campaign.
It was a great success
and both the concert and
the golf tournament were
completely sold out.
“We had such a great
inaugural first year,” said
Blaine.
“It’s a big deal, it’s
pretty fun and this year
we want to do it again,” he
added.
He is aiming for more
money and is looking to the
community for continued
support.
“We are so very grateful to everybody and all the
wonderful sponsors who
supported us in our first
year,” he said.
“We have our work cut
out for us, but we are up to
the challenge,” Blaine added. “… We are early yet, but
this is where we start.”
He didn’t announce
which celebrities will be attending his big 2015 event,
but alluded that there will
be a few big names.
Blaine was unable to
make his announcement in
person on Oct. 8, but sent in
a video and communicated
by telephone.
Though Blaine currently lives in the U.S., he hasn’t
forgotten his hometown of
Pembroke.
“Jason has proven that
he is a community person,” said JBCFC member
and Algonquin College’s
Manager of Community
and Student Affairs Jamie
Bramburger. “While he
lives in Nashville, Tennessee, he understands his
roots, and his roots are in
the Ottawa Valley and he
wants to give back.”
Bramburger said he
feels it is very important
that people understand
Blaine’s commitment to
mental health. His support
in getting mental health
First Aid training for notfor-profit
organizations
License # M649527
will allow the community
to begin bridging some of
its gaps.
“It’s really a resource
we need in the community,” said Brambruger.
Blaine may now be a
beloved country music star,
but he was a business student at Algonquin College,
graduating in 2002.
Since then, he has maintained ties to the school,
helping fund the new campus through the concert and
golf tournament.
“Whether we are a benefactor or a participant in
helping making it (the event)
a success, we are happy to
be involved,” said Karen
Davies, Dean of Algonquin
College in the Ottawa Valley. “It’s all about the community and supporting our
communities out there.
“He’s doing a great job
and we want to help him,”
she added. “Whether its directly to the college or the
community, we are happy
to be a part of it.”
The 2015 Jason Blaine
Charity concert will be held
on June 16 at the Pembroke
Memorial Centre. On June
17, the Celebrity Charity Golf Classic tournament
will be held at the Pembroke Shores Golf Club.
Four charities will benefit from country superstar Jason Blaine’s fundraising efforts. The recipients,

Just a reminder that the address for the Greater Petawawa Civitan Club is now 16 Civic Centre Rd. Petawawa

On Oct. 4, 2014 the Greater Petawawa Civitan Club
held their 26th Annual Awards Night and the installation
of the Executive for 2014-2015 at the Petawawa Legion

emcee, welcomed everyone to Petawawa and our dinner.
Civitan President Brian Miner led us in the creed. Civitan
Donna Forget did the toast to the Queen, Canada and Civitan. Civitan Marie Arnold said the invocation and the
meal was served. After the dinner, Civitan Darlene Lambert introduced each of our guest speakers: Lt. Governor

Bill Lawrence, councillor James Carmody representing the
Town of Petawawa, and our President Civitan Brian Miner. Each guest speaker talked about Civitan - all the good
work the Civitan club in Petawawa is doing, and that our
Civitan club may be small but we are a great inspiration to
all Civitan clubs.
The Greater Petawawa Civitan Club Executive members for 2014-2015 are the following: President Brian
Miner, Vice President Darlene Lambert, Secretary Joanne

cost is a Free Will Offering. All are welcome and you can

Thought for the week: Live each day as if it is a memory in the making.
Laughter is the Best Medicine: “John what would you
do if you could live your life over?” asked Harry. “Stay
single,” said John. “Why?” asked Harry. “Well I would still
have my house, my car and my money,” said John.
That’s all for this week, God Bless.
Civitan Marie Arnold recently made a donation on behalf of the
Greater Petawawa Civitan Club of $387 to Brad Waterfall for
a growth kit for his son Colton’s wheelchair. (Submitted photo)

The CRC Kingston marks International Conﬂict Resolution Day October 16, 2014
By Danielle Blommestyn
The Conflict Resolution Centres (CRC) across
the country are celebrating
International Conflict Resolution Day (ICRD) with
their stakeholders at their
regional Bases, Garrisons
and Wings. Conflict Resolution Day reminds us that
while conflict is inevitable,
it doesn’t have to be a bad
thing; think of it as an opportunity for growth. We
have a choice in how we
handle our conflicts and
manage our relationships.
The CRC can provide you
with tools, processes and resources to maintain healthy
working relationships, and
build strong foundations
for your careers.
Did you know?:
The Conflict Resolution Centre (CRC) Central
Region is located at CFB
Kingston and offers Conflict
Resolution tools to the entire
Defence Team including Military, Civilian, Cadet, Ranger,
and Reserve members across
Ontario, less the NCR. Moreover, all of our ADR services
are confidential and voluntary. By engaging in a voluntary process, you are letting the other person know
that you are truly interested
and invested in resolving the
conflict together.
One of the many benefits of ADR is that you have
control over the outcome.
Together with the other
party, you will create a solution that is mutually beneficial. Due to this set up,
ADR is designed to create
win/win solutions rather
than winners and losers.
When both parties are invested in creating a mutually satisfactory solution,
everybody wins!
Finally, it is easier to
resolve conflicts through
early use of ADR. When
you resolve your conflicts
at the lowest level, less of
your time is spent in con-

flict. Since many conflicts
are caused by a lack of information, misinformation
and
miscommunication,
by addressing these issues
early on, working relationships can be strengthened.

SECRETS TO GREENER WINTER DRIVING
PLUG IT IN
Engines experience maximum fuel use, emissions and
engine wear when cold, so use a block heater with a timer to
reduce warm-up time. Usually turning the block heater on
for two hours prior to start-up is sufficient. The heater warms
the engine coolant, oil and engine block so that all
fluids will flow more easily. The engine is easier to start, warms
up quicker and cold start wear is reduced.

Home décor rules to live by
(NC) Are you looking
to refresh a room, or give
life to tired space? Take a
look at a few creative quick
tips from Vern Yip, the acclaimed interior designer,
long-time HGTV star, and
an ambassador for the Portuguese Cork Association.
Especially for DIYers, here
are Yip’s top design rules:
Tie in the Old with the
New - Pull a room together
that shows off the things
you love most. Mix modern,
functional furniture with relics from travels, or beautiful
antique pieces from generations past. A gallery wall is
one of the easiest ways to
combine old and new. Get
creative with an eclectic mix
of modern prints, travel pho-
tos, and family mementos.
Make Your Flooring
Functional - A beautiful floor
is one of the simplest ways
to punctuate a room. Opt for
materials that are both chic
and comfortable, such as
cork flooring. Cork floors are
warm, soft on the feet and
eco-friendly. Whether a kids’
playroom, where we spend
a lot of time on the floor; a
kitchen, where we stand for
a long time; a basement and
bedroom, where we may
be stepping on it barefoot,
cork’s natural ability to insulate against heat, cold,
noise and vibration make it
an ideal choice for any room
in the home. What’s more,
with design styles that range
from wood-like planks to

Broker, 613-687-1234
marble-esque tiles, plus an
easy-to-install system, cork
flooring meets a wide range
of aesthetics and is a DIYer’s
dream.
Don’t Shy Away from
Colour - If you’re stuck in a
sea of neutrals, it’s time to
take a risk with colour. Start
small by replacing old pillow
covers, throws and lampshades to reflect the hues
and tones of the season. Or,
create an accent wall with a
printed wallpaper or painted
design. Keep your larger
items white or neutral so
that you can easily mix and
match seasonal colours with
permanent pieces.

Put your new kitchen sink in stone
(NC) If eye-catching colour is turning your head in décor showrooms
these days, you’ll be pleased to know
that the sheer beauty of a post-modern
kitchen sink can indeed be coupled
with the toughest surface.
A hot topic in 2014, for example, is a superstar material for sinks
called,’silgranit’, which has been gaining
a lot of popularity in recent years. This is
a rock-solid composite, made in Canada,
engineered in Germany – and Toronto is
one of only two silgranit production facilities in the world.
“Silgranit is a patented material that
combines 80 per cent natural granite
stone with a premium, acrylic-resin formula to give the sink unsurpassed hardness, strength and durability,” says Edyta Drutis at Blanco Canada, an innovator
in kitchen art technology.
These sinks, she points out, are non-porous for exceptional hygiene and easy care.
They are also scratch-, chip- and stain-resistant, and they are strong enough to withstand the heat of saucepans straight from
the stove – and tough enough to let you cut
food right on the surface.
“If you’re looking for a beautiful kitchen
feature that will never lose its brand new
look and appeal, these sinks will give you
a lifetime of pride,” Drutis continues. “The
colours are cinder, anthracite, truffle, café,
biscotti, and white, each one a non-fading,
densely textured earth shade. Cinder, for
example, is a velvety warm charcoal with
a hint of brown. Anthracite is a beautiful
black sink, dramatic but also serene. All
of the colours are imbued with a mineral
pearlescence to catch the light and each one
is designed to complement the other décor
features in your kitchen.”
Trend-setting models: The two most
talked about silgranit sinks this year are
first, the Blanco Precis Cascade, with a
revolutionary bi-level bottom, and sec-
ondly, the Blanco Diamond Low Divide
U 1¾, a functional double-bowl design.
“The Diamond Low Divide U 1 ¾
model is one of a kind,” says Drutis.
“Indeed, we say ‘raise the bar in your
kitchen by lowering your divide’. The
main feature of the sink is a low partition
in the large, double bowl. This partition
gives you added room to fit large pots,
pans, and trays, making clean-up much
quicker and easier. In a busy kitchen, the
Diamond Low Divide functions as a regular double-bowl sink – but is able to do
so much more.”
The Blanco Precis Cascade is also a
star performer this year, turning heads
with its super-square modern bowl design, also with bi-level bottom.
“The lower level is designed to soak
your pots and pans, while the raised level
equipped with a mesh basket can function
much like a second bowl, perfect for cutlery or glassware, or for washing fruit and
vegetables,” Drutis explains. “Both sinks
are exceptional examples of the silgranit
innovation – and you can even get the faucets colour-matched with silgranit finishes.
“Coloured faucets are striking when
paired with the colour of your sink,” she
continues. “And yet, if you think you
might miss the usual gleaming finish on
this fixture, take a look at the faucets with
a split finish. This gives you the silgranit
colour at the base and shiny chrome on the
rest. Varying faucet styles are available including models with pull-down and pullout features, dual spray function and a
wide variety of designs to satisfy today’s
kitchen needs.”
Each faucet, like each Blanco sink, is an
achievement of German engineering and
sophisticated styling – and with the solid
brass construction, says Drutis, they are
built to last a lifetime.

at www.blancocanada.com.

Get cozy with your home decorating
(NC) – Cozy. The word
is cute, comforting, and a
bit quaint. It recalls country
cottages, cats curled in front
of the fire and silver-haired
ladies sipping Earl Grey
poured from a pot with a
crocheted cover. It’s an appealing image for those anticipating the cold months
ahead – until we try to
create a “cozy” retreat in a
modern Canadian home.
“Cozy can quickly turn
to dull, dated and even
kitschy,” says Sally Morse,
interior designer and director of creative services for
Hunter Douglas, a leading
window treatments manufacturer. “While we long for
comfort, warmth and security, we don’t want to sacrifice style, luxury or energy
efficiency.”
Morse notes that Scandinavians manage to sail
through the colder months
and long nights, while maintaining their legendary style.
With daylight at a premium
during the winter months,
Nordic homes rely on effective insulation, with window
treatments that let in the
limited daylight and help
keep out the cold. It’s a time
shared with friends around a
crackling fire and a candlelit
table. Green winter arrangements, hot drinks and hearty
dishes bring warmth and intimacy to their streamlined,
modern interiors.
In fact, the word “cozy”
has its roots in the Norwegian word “kose sig”: to
make oneself comfortable.
“Coziness also means intimacy, contentment and
feeling fulfilled in your
space,” says Morse. That
space may be a modern
suburban home, an urban
loft, a restored Victorian
or a city condo. Whatever
one’s refuge, her tips will
help to create a feeling of
well-being, comfort and
luxury, as follows:
Start the Conversation.
Arrange furniture in conversation areas that bring
family and friends together.
“Furniture pieces shouldn’t
be wallflowers,” Morse
points out. Attractive area
rugs add intimacy to the
groupings and warmth to
bare floors.

Make Fire a Focal Point.
Real or electrified, nothing is
more welcoming and warm
than a roaring fire. Invest
in attractive fireplace accessories, stack logs of birch or
pine in an attractive box or
basket, decorate the mantelpiece with large, dramatic
candles and a winter wreath
or branches. If you don’t
have a fireplace, invest in an
electric one – it will pay dividends in atmosphere and energy savings.
Go for the Glow. Turn
off ceiling lights and spotlights and let soft light glow
from table lamps. Candles
and tea lights placed in
groups throughout a space
cast a magical glow. Consider battery-operated candles. They even flicker and
are perfect for placing in a
window.
Window
Dressings.
“The right window treatments can bring warmth,
ambience, texture and light,
while making a very personal design statement,”
says Morse. For example,
new Solera Soft Shades
from Hunter Douglas combine a soft, sculpted look
withadded dimension and
a unique cellular construction that increases energy
efficiency at the window.
Solera shades also come
with the LiteRise cordless
lifting system and have no
exposed cords on the back
for enhanced child safety.
Colour
Me
Cozy.
Choose deep, soothing
hues: dark greens, ruby red,
warm shades of brown and
taupe. Burnished accessories that reflect the light –
bronze, copper, brass, and
gold – will add to a feeling
of comfort and peace.
Layers of Meaning.
Layering with various textures and colours adds
visual interest and a feeling of warmth. Studies
suggest that decorating a
room with varied textures
makes the occupants feel
three degrees warmer. “Be
creative in layering colours
and prints,” advises Morse.
Try olive or mossy green,
layered with a soft spa blue
over it; dark gray paired
with silver; deep brown
layered with taupe and soft
buttery hues. Accessorize
with pillows, throws, quilts
and blankets in subtle, coordinating prints.
A Soft Touch. Soft, supple fabrics are essential to
creating a cozy retreat. A velvet sofa, a faux-fur throw, a
silk-covered cushion, linens,
mohair and cashmere areelegant and welcoming.
On the Scent. Signature
fragrances for the home are
a growing trend with “scent
shops” offering an array of
customized home fragrances. Create your own cozy
scent with diffusers, sprays,
scented oils, potpourri
and candles. Buy these in
complementary scents and
“layer” them in different
combinations. Start with a
scent candle or diffuser in
one scent and spray with
another. The best scents in
life are free and very cozy
– cookies or bread baking,
coffee brewing.
The Look of a Book. We
love our Kindles but a collection of well-read books
add charm and individuality. Stack them under a coffee table, by an armchair or
on a shelf.
Get Personal. Family
photos or mementoes from
a vacation are other good
choices. “Watercolour pictures on the wall,” says
Morse, “from a Caribbean
Island or Paris will remind
us I’ve been there, I’ve experienced that.”
