(Photos by Patricia Leboeuf, Petawawa Post) By Patricia Leboeuf Petawawa Post Every year, the 2 Canadian Mechanized Brigade Group (2 CMBG) Ironman pits soldiers against one another and the clock in a contest of will, strength and endurance. The annual event at Garrison Petawawa is split into two days, allowing for the more competitive participants to have their own event on Friday. “It is a Petawawa institution,” said 2 CMBG Commander Colonel Conrad Mialkowski. “It is known through the Canadian Army, and beyond. And it has been nothing short of spectacular.” The grueling race is comprised of a 32 km forced march, 4 km canoe portage followed by a 8 km paddle and capping it all off with a final march of 6 km. It is not for the faint of heart as it pushes even the most seasoned athletes to their physical and mental limits. 3rd Battalion, the Royal Canadian Regiment (3 RCR) Sergeant Mario Larocque came in first with a time of 5:51:20. He climbed his way to the top from ninth place last year, narrowly beating out his rivals. “It feels good, there is just no other way to say it,” Sgt Larocque said. “I’m super happy, super proud,” he added. It was an endeavour he had strived for, sometimes working out two or three times a day in preparation. His training was made even tougher with the addition of a newborn to the family, but he credits “daddy power” for being able to do it all. It all paid off in the end when he crossed the finish line, his 3 ½ month old daughter Ayla in his arms. Col Mialkowski also participated in the race, though non-competitively. As he watched people cross the finish line, some struggling to stay upright, he admitted to being amazed by the sheer power and “certainly that raw determination” demonstrated by every single of the 452 competitors.

(Photos by Patricia Leboeuf, Petawawa Post) “The top performers are always the ones who garner attention and it’s good because they do incredible things, but any participant that does it … even those who, for medical challenges, fall out, you still have to admire that get up and go,” said Col Mialkowski. While it is a challenge for soldiers, it is also an opportunity for them to fundraise for a good cause. This year, they raised $15,143 for the Renfrew County United Way. “And donations ...continue to come in,” said Col Mialkowski. On the afternoon of Sept. 9, an Ironman Parade brought together nearly all Brigade and Garrison personnel to give proper due to all those who triumphed and marked themselves worthy of a trophy or plaque. “The whole thing has gone smoothly,” said organizer Captain Michael Bowman. “We always run into little problems we have to iron out, but everybody came out to make sure it all worked out.” With the quickest average time of 6:11, 3 RCR won the Major Unit team award, with 1st Battalion, The Royal Canadian Regiment coming in second with an average time of 6:47.

Pte Parise finished the race in first place for the second year in a row. “This year was worse than last year for sure,” she said, adding it felt good to finish despite the heat.

The Female Master Award went to Corporal Anne Cross who had a time of 9:02:21. The runner-up was Warrant Officer Deborah Attrux with 9:24:14. There was also a special mention given to 3 RCR Sergeant David Tyler McEachern for completing the Iron- man race on both dates. He had a time of 8:11:06 on Thursday, and to the amazement of organizers, did better on Friday with a time of 8:09:23. “It is a truly incredible feat,” said Col Mialkowski.

Petawawa Post Still full from the breakfast marking the launch of Garrison Petawawa’s National Defence Workplace Charitable Campaign in support of the Renfrew County United Way, several dozen soldiers gathered behind Normandy Court to watch the garrison’s Command Team take the plunge. An annual long-term tradition, Garrison Petawawa hosted a pancake breakfast fundraiser, but this year, organizers added a dunk tank to further promote their goal of raising $85,000. Garrison Petawawa Commander Colonel Mark Misener knows it is a tall order, but feels confident they will achieve this goal. He knows firsthand how generous people can be as countless individuals lined up to take aim at the dunk target. “The amazing thing is that the money stays local, so it is our opportunity to support those around us that support us all year round,” said Col Misener. Getting both the campaign and people’s mornings off on the right foot, volunteers served a full breakfast on Sept. 12 to hun- gry soldiers and defence team members. The meal cost $5, but many people had no hesitation about throwing in a few extra dollars “The men and women at the Garrison have always been very supportive of the United Way with their individual giving and when they come together,” said Renfrew County United Way Campaign Chairman Doug Tennant. Over the next two months, there will be several events held at the Garrison to help meet the five-figure goal. “It is an opportunity to help Canadians in need,” said Col Misener. Renfrew County United Way Executive Director Patricia Lafreniere is always amazed at the dedication the Garrison demonstrates during fundraising season, particularly now that she and her team is aiming to raise $400,001. “Every event that they run is inspirational to other workplaces,” she said. “The way that their team leaders get them rallied to support such a great cause, I commend them for everything they do for us.” Money raised through this campaign also helps various local charitable groups Garrison Petawawa’s Chief Warrant Officer Bill Richards is a still a good sport after getting repeatedly dunked in frigid water. The dunk tank was a new addition to the annual Garrison Petawawa United Way kickoff, and people paid $5 for the chance to dunk their superior officers.

The United Way is a facilitator, and brings together people, resources and organizations to ensure that families and individuals receive the services they require. Their ultimate goal is to make sure that the community is a healthy and safe place to work, live and play for all. continued on next page Advertising: Errors or correction must be brought to the attention of the Managing Editor the day after the first insertion.

(Photos by Patricia Leboeuf, Petawawa Post) Petawawa Post, September 15, 2016, Page 5 Town water ban still in place HUSQVARNA’S By Patricia Leboeuf Petawawa Post The Town of Petawawa’s ban on non-essential water use will be maintained to safeguard adequate supply and prevent undue stress on its water treatment plant. The ban was put in place after an electrical fire destroyed one of three motor control centres on Aug. 16. This equipment is manufactured by a limited number of suppliers, and while a new one has been designed and ordered, delivery isn’t expected until late October. “The ban will stay in effect until we have the facility up and running in normal running condition,” said Mayor Bob Sweet. Ontario Clean Water Agency staff and contractors are working to return the plant to full order. Using water excessively at this time could impact temporary measures put in place and further damage the machinery. This could result in even more problems, and bans for a longer term. Residents are asked not to use water for things outside normal household needs including washing cars and watering lawns. “It is amazing just how much water is used by watering lawns,” said Sweet. “… It can certainly deplete the reserve we have in the tanks.” He acknowledged this may be unfortunate for resident’s whose lawns are turning brown or who have planted new sod, but the town’s main responsibility is to ensure there is enough water for fire suppression. The quality and the safety of the water are not affected.

Page 6, Petawawa Post, September 15, 2016 Garrison Petawawa families and the public invited to celebrate Garrison Family Day September 17 GARRISON PETAWAWA– Garrison Petawawa will once again celebrate Family Day with Department of National Defence employees and Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) Personnel by throwing one massive free event on Saturday September 17 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. “This event is a chance for us to recognize and thank our families for their constant commitment and enduring support in helping to deliver operational success at home and abroad. Without the support and dedication of families the CAF could not achieve its required operational outputs,” said Garrison Petawawa Commander Colonel Mark Misener. “Thank you for everything you do to keep the home fires burning. We also recognize that our friends and community partners are crucial due to their unwavering support that they provide us.” “We want you to have fun at this event as it is an opportunity to celebrate our achievements while enjoying one another’s company thus making our community stronger. The event is open to all and is a great opportunity for our newly posted members and their families as well as those who have lived here a long time to get together and get to know one another”, said Garrison Petawawa Chief Warrant Officer CWO Bill Richards. Some of the highlights for this year’s event will be a large selection of military static displays, entertainment by the 2 CMBG Pipes and Drums, kiddie commando course, colour run, live entertainment, Craz-E-Crew Stunt Team, and so much more. The Masoni Child Identification Program will be on sight for anyone wanting to register their children. A full schedule of events can be found at psppetawawa.com. Participants wanted for Community Needs Survey By Patricia Leboeuf Petawawa Post The Community Needs Assessment Survey was launched Sept. 12 to identify some of the most pressing challenges that military members and their families face. The survey is open to all military personnel, veterans and family members until Sept. 23. The Petawawa Military Family Resource Cen- GEORGE JACKSON WEST INC. E G R N O GE KSO JAC ST WE INC. tre (PMFRC) and Personnel Support Programs (PSP) will use the provided feedback to better serve the community. The responses will determine what military families really want and need from both organizations, and what their priorities are. “It is an investment by military families,” said PMFRC Executive Director Claudia Beswick. “They don’t have to let us know who is doing what, they just need to let us know what they like and we’ll take it from there.” It doesn’t matter if respondents are frequent or casual users of the PMFRC and PSP; the organizations just want to know what is needed in the community to augment quality of life and morale. By gathering this type of data every three years, both get a better picture of the wants and needs of military families as well as a snapshot of how well the current services address those needs. “Then we’ll know if we need to make any adjustments or if we should find other things to offer,” said Beswick. Though there is an opportunity for people to provide feedback after events, activities and programs, this survey is a more complete data-collecting tool. It is a relatively long process, clocking in at 15 to 20 minutes, but the length was designed to get a full view of people’s opinions and experience. It touches on every aspect that a participant may encounter with the PMFRC and PSP, whether it is recreational activities, mental health support or childcare. According to Beswick, this broad scope is integral because it doesn’t matter what programs are currently in place if they aren’t needed or wanted. “It is essential that the community has the chance to give us their input on their needs and wants for our services,” said PMFRC Board of Director’s Chair Selina Robb. “We want those reflective and genuine responses.” The answers will lead both PSP and the PMFRC into different partnerships with community organizations as needed. The survey’s answers will also let them know how to better target military members, veterans and their families. “We want to hear from them and we want to know how they are doing,” said Beswick. The survey is online until Sept. 23 at www.cfmws. com/CNA.

(Above) Paulette Cotter with friends and family. (Submitted photos) By MCpl James Gray On 12 August 2016, Transportation Company (Tn Coy), 2 Service Battalion, family, and friends said farewell to beloved civilian employee Ms. Paulette Cotter, who retired after 37 years of loyal and dedicated employment in the Public Service. The luncheon was held at the Great Canadian Warehouse in Petawawa. Ms. Cotter began a parttime job with 702 Signals Squadron as the Switchboard Base Operator from 1982-1983. She then transferred to Base Foods as a kitchen helper for one year, and soon secured a fulltime position with the Orderly Room as a clerk at Central Medical Equipment Depot. In 2002 she joined the Tn Coy family at 2 Service Battalion. Ms. Cotter is the epitome of what teamwork is about. She was always willing to assist the civilian drivers with claims and paperwork and made herself available to the soldiers, providing advice on policies and life in general! Actively involved in workplace safety programs and various committees, she always put the needs of the Coy and people first. As a single parent, she balanced her life admirably. She has raised a wonderful family while also giving unconditionally to Tn Coy. The retirement ceremony was emotional for everyone. Saying goodbye is never easy but we wish Ms. Cotter all the best in her new life and her bucket list. Congratulations Paulette, we will miss you and thank you for everything.

It can be said that our history is a complicated one. Re-named, re-designated, re-organized, re-roled, and re-badged numerous times since its formation in 1866, it has remained firmly rooted in the Lanark and Renfrew counties of Eastern Ontario since its creation. The Regiment was born from the Pembroke Infantry Company of the 42nd Brockville Battalion of Infantry in 1866. During the riotous Fenian Raids, the battalion was called out in 1870 to defend the St Lawrence River. It could be argued that this is where we got our first feel for the guns, as the battalion was accompanied by two batteries of Garrison Artillery from Brockville and Ottawa. In 1900, the company was re-designated the 42nd Lanark and R e n f re w Regi- (Above) The first twelve Lanark and Renfrew volunteers for overseas service were commanded by Captain William H. Smith in August 1914. The 130th Lanark and Renfrew Overseas Battalion was mobilized on 14 November 1915 at Perth under Lieutenant-Colonel J.E. de Hertel and the 240th Lanark and Renfrew Overseas battalion was mobilized 1 June 1916 at Renfrew under Lieutenant-Colonel E.J. Watt. ment and headquartered in Pembroke, Ontario. During the Great War, members of the regiment joined the fight in England where they were absorbed into numerous units within the 130th “Overseas” Battalion, Canadian Expeditionary Force (CEF) (1915) and the 240th “Overseas” Battalion, CEF (1916). Following the war, the Regiment was re-organized in 1922 as the Lanark and Renfrew Regiment and in 1927, re-designated as a highland infantry unit (Lanark and Renfrew Scottish Regiment). continued on next page (Above) Born in Chalk River in 1900, Private Stoddard enlisted in the 130th Battalion at 15 years old, on February 15, 1916. He was with the 2nd Canadian Division from 1916 –1919. He returned to the Lanark and Renfrew Scottish in 1942 and was with the 59th Light Anti-Aircraft in 1946. He retired as a Chief Warrant Officer and Regimental Sergeant Major in April 1955. (Left) Members of the Lanark and Renfrew Scottish Regiment enjoy some down-time during the 1960s.

Petawawa Post, September 15, 2016, Page 13 From Infantry to AD to Fd: 42nd Field to celebrate ... continued from previous page During World War II (1942), the Regiment was divided into two battalions. The 1st Battalion was mobilized for service in support of home defence on the eastern and western seaboards of Canada until 1943. The 2nd Battalion proceeded to England in 1941 as part of the 1st Light Anti-Aircraft Regiment, RCA and then to Sicily in 1943 for the duration of the Italian Campaign. In 1944, the Regiment returned to the infantry as the Lanark and Renfrew Scottish Regiment, until moving into France in 1945 as the 1st Light Anti-Aircraft Regiment (Lanark and Renfrew Scottish Regiment), RCA. At the war’s end, the Regiment was re-roled as the 59th Light Anti-Aircraft Regiment (Lanark and Renfrew Scottish) and then once again returned to its infantry roots in 1959 as the Lanark and Renfrew Scottish Regiment. Thirty-three years later, in 1992, the regiment adopted the RCA in its name again when it was reroled as an Air Defence Regiment. The new name, 1st Air Defence Regiment (Lanark and Renfrew Scottish), RCA, also came with a personnel change of both Regular and Reserve Force personnel to form a “total force unit”. The year 2006 saw the regiment converted to field artillery and re-named 42nd Field Artillery Regiment (Lanark and Renfrew Scottish), RCA, one of three Primary Reserve field artillery units of 33 Canadian Brigade Group. A Reunion Call, from September 23 to September 25, 2016 will be hosted by the 42nd Field Regiment (Lanark and Renfrew Scottish), RCA Association for past and currently serving members through a variety of events in Pembroke, Ontario. Whether it is to the tune of Highland Laddie or the British Grenadiers, members of 42nd Field Regiment (Lanark and Renfrew Scottish), RCA continue to march on, proud of our shared heritage and service to Canada.

But few aspects of a wedding are as important as photography. Thanks to the popularity of social media, some couples may overlook the importance of hiring a professional photographer for their weddings. Although there is something to be said for candid images cap- tured on phones and personal cameras, the pictures a couple will cherish and look back on for decades are best supplied by a professional photographer. Professionals use highquality equipment that will produce much better results than photos snapped on the average digital camera. Plus, the photographer has experience with posing, placement of arms and legs, head tilting, and lighting, each of which ensures that the photos come out looking as good as possible. Furthermore, professional photographers tend to have an eye for interesting angles to capture images that may be overlooked. Price alone should not dictate which photographer to hire. Although wedding budgets are often stretched, skimping on a photography allotment may result in subpar results. That doesn’t mean you need to hire the most expensive photographer, but couples should realize the value of experience and professional equipment, both of which tend to come at a premium price. Do not expect to pay package prices that would be offered at department or discount stores.

Petawawa Post, September 15, 2016, Page 15 Fall Showcase returns By Patricia Leboeuf The very best deals on your favorite used models! Petawawa Post The Petawawa Fall Showcase has returned once more after a brief hiatus, and it is expected to be a weekend to remember. Similar to its spring counterpart, Fall Showcase will be at the Petawawa Civic Centre over three days, from Sept. 23 to 25. It will host some top vendors, many of whom travel from afar to ply their wares and services. Under new management, Showcase has also teamed up with the Petawawa Heritage Village for the first time. Through this partnership, the event has become more than just a chance to meet with vendors and put a face to companies; it will now offer countless more activities for families to enjoy, both modern and historical. “There will be a lot ... going on in a short amount of time,” said Shawn Gallant, owner and organizer of the event. The Spring Showcase typically attracts about 10,000 people and nearly 200 vendors. Though Gallant estimates the fall version will be smaller, it should be no less successful. “We will have some new vendors that focus on fall and winter based services and products,” he said. There will also be more free entertainment on the grounds such as face painting, Skyza Ottawa Valley Bubble Balls, inflatables, a Mega Machines display and the Valley Princesses. “We don’t want to just be a vendor show,” said Gallant. “We want to get as many people out to this event as we can. “It’s great to see the kids take advantage of all the entertainment because who doesn’t love a smiling kid’s face?” he added. Many of these free activities will be held nearby at the Petawawa Heritage Village. Their Fall Harvest Market and Bake Sale is in its third year, and combining with Showcase this year will help promote it. “I think it’s really nice that they are helping us advertise,” said Petawawa Heritage Society/Village President Ann McIntyre. “Because why have two events and try to compete?” The Village will only be open on Saturday, and it will offer demonstrations of spinning, wool dying, trapping, blacksmithing, carpentry, baking and much more, as well as provide some old fashioned goods to purchase. “We are going to try and promote trade skills; that people still do artisan work like they used to back then,” said McIntyre. “Items like metal work and quilts.” The on-site outdoor oven will also be blazing hot as it churns out various treats of historical accuracy, with money going to help maintain the village.

Petawawa Civic Centre to host Royal Canadian Legion Ladies Auxiliary Provincial Convention 17-21 September By Helene Hahn Convention Chairwoman The Town of Petawawa and City of Pembroke will see an influx of 700 ladies from around the province for the Biennial Royal Canadian Legion Ladies Auxiliary Provincial Convention being held at the Petawawa Civic Centre.

Students came out to the village on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 10 a.m. - 2:30 p.m. during July and August and enjoyed learning Trades and Skills from Seniors in our community. It was a wonderful opportunity for the students to work alongside seniors and discover that they have so many untapped skills, it was also a wonderful chance for seniors to discover that they still have a great deal to offer the community. This past summer under the program director Sharon Rideough, the students did education, family living 1865, weaving, drop spindle, soap making, candle making, blacksmithing, Ukrainian floral hair wreaths, lamp making, knots, logging, hit and miss engines, carpentry, wilderness survival, bak- ing outdoors, mail prior to the turn of the century, lamps, early pioneer games. They also discovered from Bob McKenzie about fairy stones and making leather pouches. We had two very active programs one was a water boiling contest and Chief Steve Knott came out and talked to the students about camp fire safety. Our last day was The Village Olympics, something the students planned and ran. It was a team effort put on for the seniors to enjoy. They took all the pioneer games and made them into events, stilt, sack, wheel barrel, hop skip jump and shot put. The Podium prizes were handmade and they even portrayed the media. It was a wonderful way to end the summer season. The last day was also our traditional outdoor oven pizza and Peggy Brown out did herself once again. Suffering from Stress, PTSD, or Depression?

Tammy MacIntosh was in remission after her first battle with cancer in 2002, thriving for many years until she was recently diagnosed with myeloma, a cancer that affects plasma cells. After a brave fight, she succumbed on May 24, 2016 in hospice. Though separated for the past 15 years, the duo had remained close friends, and her passing left WO MacIntosh with a painful wound. The need to do something to combat cancer was spurred on by conversations with his 20-yearold daughter Marissa MacIntosh. The loss was devastating to her and MacIntosh wanted to help out in some way. The idea to do a 400 km fundraising journey came to him during a random recreational ATV ride. It is an activity that he took up a few years ago, and it quickly became a passion. He decided to push himself to the limit and formalize his journey, reaching out to the community for funds with the aim of donating anything he collected to the Canadian Cancer Society. He then reached out to the organization with an offer to collect $500 in pledges, which he later turned into a $1,000 goal. Two days before his ride began on Sept. 9, he had raised $1,130. “My daughter thinks it is awesome,” said MacIntosh. Though Marissa is his main influence, she isn’t the only one encouraging him. He has received nothing but positive comments from friends, family and coworkers. “To tell you the truth, I didn’t even think I would get close to my goal,” said MacIntosh. He has also been carefully mapping his journey to ensure his safety. He acknowledges that anything could happen in the middle of the woods so he has prepared himself well, collecting maps and carefully planning out the logistics of his trek. Due to his familiarity with the trails, he estimates that it will take two full days to reach his destination, with an overnight stop in Bancroft. Though some of his friends have shown interest in joining him on his adventure, he feels that this particular ride is personal. If it happens to be a success, he may do it again next year as a formal fundraiser and invite people to join. He also plans to take pictures and post them on his ATV Ride for Cancer Facebook page. He will try to do so as frequently as possible, but admits that cell service is intermittent at best on the trails. The money raised from his ATV ride will “fund life-saving cancer research, offer vital information on cancer and provide compassionate support services to people living with cancer and their families.” While raising funds is integral to this project, it is mostly his way of celebrating the life of a woman who had been a wonderful mother, a good friend and a proud Canadian Armed Forces Veteran for over 18 years.

Shape Up this Fall By Kevin Strachan Health Promotion Specialist Garrison Petawawa Fall can be a treat for the senses: the crisp air, the crunch of leaves underfoot and a gorgeous canopy of fall foliage. These months are a great time to exercise outdoors and enjoy cooler temperatures. So, take advantage of the weather, and follow these seven tips to make the most of the fall season: 1. Integrate exercises into your life. You already know the obvious suggestions: bike to work, park farther away from your destination, and take a walk during your break. If you’re spending the evening with your children at a hockey practice, instead of reading a book or visiting with another parent, why not walk around the rink while they practice, or do some stair climbing. 2. Deal with darkness. The best way to enjoy fall is to exercise outdoors. However, as it is getting darker earlier, and staying dark later, it is important to be smart and safe. Just because it is dark doesn’t mean you can’t work out. It may mean that you need to wear a reflective vest and a INVENTORY carry a flashlight. 3. Dress in layers. When exercising outside, layer your clothing. The inner layer should be a moisturewicking layer, so that it wicks away your sweat and you’re not chilled. The second layer should be an insulation layer, which will trap and hold your body heat. The third layer should be a protective layer, which will protect you from the wind, rain and snow. 4. Be an active TV watcher. With all the fall premieres, many will find themselves plunked on the couch in front of the television for hours on end. If you are going to do this, get moving. While you watch, you can walk or run in place, do some stationary floor exercises, or lift some weights. Even if you only exercised during commercials, you would add close to twenty minutes of fitness to your daily activity level after a one-hour show. 5. Remember the 30-day rule. It usually takes about four weeks for the body to adapt to lifestyle changes. This is why many people who give up on their fitness programs tend to do so within the first 30 days. Try to stick with the new program for a month. After that, it should get a little easier. 6. Find your motivation. As different people are motivated by different things, it is important to first identify what your goals are. Create a challenge that will motivate you, encourage you and hold you accountable. Remember that anything worth having takes work. Reward yourself when goals are reached. 7. Have fun with some fall specific activities. Take a hike through a colourful forest; go pumpkin picking; tackle a corn maze; rake all the leaves in your backyard (or your neighbour’s if you don’t have any trees), make a big pile and then jump in them. There are many fantastic and appealing activities for all ages during the fall months, so take advantage of them. If you follow these seven tips, there is a great chance that you will find the fall the most enjoyable season for staying active. Enjoy!

Petawawa Post, September 15, 2016, Page 21 Council supports push to tax family-run campgrounds as small businesses By Patricia Leboeuf Petawawa Post Petawawa Council is joining other municipalities in urging the federal government to recognize small, mostly-family run campgrounds as small businesses, and as such, they should pay the same tax rate as other small businesses. Small family-run campgrounds have become a target for the federal government looking for more taxation revenue, wrote MP for Renfrew - Nipissing Pembroke Cheryl Gallant in a letter to council. According to Gallant’s proposed resolution, many small campgrounds across Canada have begun receiving notices from the Federal Government warning them of reassessments when they are deemed to be too large to qualify for the small business tax deduction. Some familyrun campgrounds will now be taxed at triple the rate of other small businesses, rates higher than even Canada’s biggest billion dollar businesses with penalties and interest. Back tax bills could run in the tens of thousands of dollars, crippling some of the businesses and leading others to ruin, said Gallant. “One of the four pillars we have of economic development in the county is tourism, and we are hoping to build that pillar,” said Mayor Bob Sweet. “Even if one campground should close that is an unfortunate situation.” Council passed a resolution highlighting their support for fair taxation during the Sept. 7 council meeting. “The whole of Renfrew County has many small campgrounds and I’m sure this is an issue that not only affects Petawawa, but I’m sure concerns everybody who operates a small campground,” said Councillor Treena Lemay. “So this is a worthwhile option to try and get the federal government to change their mind and leave the exempt status with these small campgrounds,” she added. For Councillor James Carmody, supporting fair taxation for small campgrounds isn’t just a matter of promoting tourism, supporting family businesses or helping the economy. “It is just another example of big government with a big rule book super imposing its dizzying set of rules on society and just making it difficult on every-day average Joes running their campgrounds to live,” he said. “It’s just big government and bad business.” Business Directory Optometrist HEALTHY EYES DOCTOR DELIVERED Monday - Friday 2889 Petawawa Blvd., 9:30 a.m. - 4:30 p.m. Petawawa, Ontario Closed for Lunch: 12 - 1 p.m (613) 687-5566 NEW PATIENTS WELCOME THE PETAWAWA POST’S BUSINESS DIRECTORY IS JUST $25 PER WEEKLY INSERTION.

(NC) With skyrocketing prices in many major cities, owning a home has become more of an option than a given. For some, homeownership is the best investment they’ll ever make, while it’s not the way to go for others. Here are some questions to ask yourself before taking the plunge. Do you really want to own? It sounds great, but are you sure you want to be a homeowner? It’s not only a huge expense, it’s a lifetime of maintenance, renovations, paperwork, and dealing with neighbours. Remember that ownership isn’t the only way to build equity. Regular retirement contributions can also serve you well down the road without the headaches that come with that white Did You KNOW? DID YOU KNOW THAT THERE ARE 16 OTHER CANADIAN FORCES NEWSPAPERS YOU CAN ADVERTISE IN?? For more information contact Tanya at 613-687-5511 ext. 5386 or [email protected] BOOK TODAY! picket fence. Can you service the debt? The hardest part of affording a home isn’t saving for the down payment — though that’s not exactly a cinch. It’s affording the over 25 years of mortgage payments, property taxes, utilities, and home repairs that’ll really test your finances. Meanwhile, owning a home doesn’t mean you can ignore life’s other costs like retirement, an emergency fund, travel, education, daycare, vehicles, food, and more. So take a good hard look at your income, deduct regular expenses and contributions, and ask yourself if you can make the monthly payments. Are you prepared for the unexpected? Just because interest rates are low now doesn’t mean they’ll stay that way forever. If you buy, make sure you’re in a position to afford Edmonds & Associates higher interest rates down the road. Always use rate comparison sites like LowestRates to keep your eye on rates and stay informed about the mortgage climate. And speaking of unexpected costs, don’t forget to factor in the hidden closing costs including legal fees, the land transfer tax, and Canadian Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC) insurance. Are you where you want to stay? Although playing the buy-and-flip game can be tempting, it’s a very risky move. There are no guarantees in real estate. Sage advice says that if you’re in a position to afford, buy in an area where you’re planning to stay. Hopefully you won’t have to take a loss if you ever do need to sell, but buying with the intention of staying tends to be the safer bet. Learn more about mortgages at LowestRates.ca.

By Bob Howell, Branch President We’ve had our first Fish & Chips of the season and it went quite well, thanks to our volunteers: Helene, Zita, Mavis, Bill, Jodi, Cindy, Frank, Kim, and Darius - all are known as team 1. Keeping in line with military stories and articles, I have excerpts from the book, True Canadian War Heroes on The Battlefield, written by Arthur Bishop, the son of Billy Bishop. Here is one such story. Quote: Rothesay, Frank “Took Complete Charge” When his platoon commander was struck down, Frank Rothesay of the 4th Battalion took charge and led his men to the foremost German positions which came under fierce enemy artillery and machine gun fire. Subsequently, when all the company officers were either killed or wounded, he took complete charge and remained at his post.

Arnold, PRO The members of the Greater Petawawa Civitan Club are getting ready for the upcoming months. It will not be long before we will be getting ready for Thanksgiving and then Christmas. Some of our members will be going away for a few days to Valleyfield for our Region 5 Convention September 16-18, and I am one of them. Looking forward to seeing Civitan members I haven’t see for awhile and having some fun. Oh yes, we will all be back for the Bingo Sunday night. I have to say that we are happy to see so many new bingo players coming out and enjoying our Bingo and meeting new people. If you are not quite sure how to play bingo, our workers will help you, and so will other players. We want you to enjoy your night out and want you to come back the next Sunday. Remember, when you support our Petawawa Civitan Bingo you are helping us support those that need our help in our area. Our Civitan Club will be holding a fundraiser for Hope Reins (the War Horse Project) to support our horse Maggie. The War Horse Project supports all our veterans and those suffering from Post Traumatic Stress. We will be holding this event in November at St Georges Chapel on Garrison Petawawa. I will have more information about this event later on. Our next Civitan meeting will be held September 14 at 7 p.m. If you would like to come and find out what we are all about, come join us. Have a good week and keep safe. Thought for the week: Did I give thanks for all I have? That’s all for this week, God Bless.
