On Monday morning,
113 soldiers of the 3rd Battalion, The Royal Canadian
Regiment (3 RCR) and augmentees left Garrison Petawawa enroute to Poland
as part of Operation REASSURANCE.
Oscar Company will replace another contingent of
3 RCR personnel, and will
be joining seven soldiers
who deployed early.
“This is a very momentous occasion and what
they are doing overseas is
important,” said Colonel
Peter Dawe, Commander
2 Canadian Mechanized
Brigade Group. “… We
need to show solidarity
with our allies in that part
of the world. In having our
troops exercise with some
of our allies like the Poles
and Lithuanians and others
is very important. It sends
a very important message.
“NATO has to be meaningful,” he added. “For it
to be meaningful, it means
that allies from Canada
need to step in once in a
while and show that solidarity and be prepared to
support our allies, which is
what we are doing.”
This is the second company to deploy from 3 RCR.
Mike Company left in July
to support the operation,
and were slated to return to
Petawawa Sept 24.
While overseas, 3 RCR
members will be involved
in a series of multi-national
training exercises, which
will allow them to showcase their abilities and demonstrate their leadership capacity. They will also focus
on several airmobile-type
operations including helicopter insertions and live
fire training.
“From a Brigade Commander perspective, it is
an ideal situation because
they are going to accomplish a lot of training that
I, frankly, had planned for
them,” said Col Dawe. “So
to be able to do it with allies now in an environment
as interesting as Eastern
Europe, it is a win-win
from our perspective.”
The training will promote interoperability with
the regional partners and
improve joint-operation capabilities in a variety of missions to help the Army develop and maintain the skills
required to make Canadians
safe at home and abroad.

Garrison Petawawa earns top spot in 2014 CF Sustainable Communities
Garrison receives 4 Blooms and special mention for Strength of Partnership with Town of Petawawa.
CHARLOTTETOWN,
PEI - Garrison Petawawa is
the winner of the Communities in Bloom Canadian
Forces Sustainable Communities category.
Petawawa received a 4
Bloom rating and a special
mention for the ‘Strength of
Partnership with the Town
of Petawawa’ during the
2014 National Symposium
and Awards Ceremonies in
Charlottetown on Sept 20.
Garrison
Petawawa
participated in the Canadian Forces Sustainable Communities category along
with 4 Wing Cold Lake and
CFB Shilo.
In July, trained volunteer judges travelled to participating communities to
evaluate the overall contributions of municipal council
and departments; industry;
businesses and the private
sector – including volunteer
efforts – with respect to the
following criteria: Tidiness,
Environmental Action, Heritage Conservation, Urban
Forestry, Landscape and Floral Displays.
Volunteer judges Dave
Hilton and Bruce Hay arrived at Garrison Petawawa
on July 24 and spent July 25
touring both the garrison
and the town. Some of the
day’s highlights included
visits to the LAV Barn,
Range Control, the Urban
Ops Village and to the 2
Combat Engineer Regiment
Memorial Garden, as well
as to the Town of Petawawa’s Royal Canadian Legion Branch 517 Cenotaph,
the Emerald Necklace Trail
and the Petawawa Point.
Following their evaluation, the judges wrote: “The
Town of Petawawa and
Garrison Petawawa have
developed a very strong
relationship that takes responsibility for improving
the quality of life through
cooperative planning and
management. The following
are some of the projects that
are occurring because of this
partnership: New Cenotaph
construction, Womens Monument, New Soccer Pitches,
Trail Restoration and construction using base equipment and expertise.
“This partnership between the base and other urban centres makes our mention unique. It was evident
to the judges that there was
good cooperation between
the two bodies and we enjoyed the joint presentation
made by the Town and Garrison personnel.”
Garrison Petawawa has
been competing in Communities in Bloom CF Sustainable Communities since
2008, winning the overall
Second 3 RCR ... continued from front page
Despite the great training opportunity, Dawe does
acknowledge that it is difficult for the troops to have to
leave their families and that it can be hard for those that
are left behind during the long months of training.
Training for this company is slated to last about three
months, but the return date is not set in stone. It may be
shorter or it may be longer according to need.
“We plan for every eventuality,” said Col Dawe. “As
the Brigade Commander, the responsible thing to do is
for me to anticipate the toughest situation, the toughest
scenario for me … but that can change in a heartbeat.
“In the interim, we will plan for a series of different eventualities,” he added. “These guys could
stay for a very long time or we have them rotate with
somebody else in due course. But we will be ready
for whatever the government asks us to do.”
award in both 2009 and
2011, and the extra criteria
Youth Involvement award
in 2010. The garrison has
also been a finalist in extra
criteria awards for Land
Reclamation in 2010 and
Landscape in 2012.
“It’s another great win
for Garrison Petawawa,
the third in six years,” said
Kelly Russell, 4 CDSG Environmental Services Roads
and Grounds Team Leader,
and this year’s co-chair of
the CF Sustainable Communities committee. “It really shows the strong and
determined dedication of
the committee and great
support from the chain of
command. Garrison Petawawa truly is the best Garrison in Canada.”

The Petawawa Military
Family Resource Centre
(PMFRC) opened its doors
on Sept. 18 to a sea of curious people, each of them
eager to discover everything
the organization has to offer.
“When families come
to a new community, we
feel that if we are there, as
a PMFRC, to help them integrate, they’ll have a better posting at the end of
the day,” said Integration
and Support Programmer
Holly Cardiff. “We help
them meet new people and
learn new skills with the
programing that we offer.”
The event featured a variety of information booths,
games, competitions, draws
and prizes as well as free
popcorn, pizza and drinks.
“I think it is a great opportunity and it’s an occasion for families to see all the
services that are available to
them in one single location,”
said 4 CDSB Operations Services RSM Chief Warrant Officer Marty Walhin about the
event.
Just a few minutes after
the event began, the South
Side Community Centre
was filled with people of all
ages. Many of them were
families with young children, unsure about the area
and how to navigate the
military lifestyle.
“It’s amazing seeing
new faces,” said Cardiff.
“Obviously, we are reaching that target group that
we want to provide services to. It’s the people that
don’t know what we do.
We want to let them know
that we are here and we
want to help.”
The PMFRC offers employment services, self-defense programs, childcare
services that run from casual
to full-day daycare, self-improvement and recreational
activities, child-parent programs, mental health services, computer literacy programs, volunteer services
and much more.
“The base has a huge
turnover with lots of people posted in and lots of
people posted out,” said
Carol Sollows, treasurer for
the PMFRC Board of Directors. “Not all the families
are aware of what a military family resource centre
can do for them.
“Each MFRC can do
things a little bit different,”
she added. “It depends on
the size of the base, where
you are located, the amounts
of funds that you have.”
The PMFRC is a completely separate entity
from Garrison Petawawa’s
chain of command, but
does operate under strict
guidelines. It tailors itself
according to the needs of
the community it serves,
evolving over time to better
fit people’s needs.
Currently, its biggest
concerns are childcare,
mental health help and support during deployments.
“Whenever a family
member ... is deployed or
posted on an exercise, we
want to make sure that we
can give them what they
need,” said Sollows.
The organization prides
itself on being very family
friendly.
The open house allowed Cardiff, Sollows and
all the other volunteers to
put their finger directly on
the community’s pulse and
decipher exactly what the
families need from them.
“I get to meet new
people, walk around, greet
people and learn what they
are looking for so they can
help us change and alter
our services,” said Cardiff.
Postings, deployments,
field exercises and worry
can take also take a deep
toll on spouses and children, and the PMFRC can
help alleviate that pressure.
“A lot of the time, the
husband will get sent out
on training and the wives
are here and they don’t
know anyone,” said Cardiff. “They are removed
from their families, their
support system. They are
on their own. So by having this program available,
we are allowing families
to get out of the house and
to meet new people … and
hopefully get that support
back that they left behind.”
CWO Walhin agreed the
PMFRC is a great benefit,
not only to the family, but
also to the military member
that is away.
“It’s a big stress reliever
for the military member
that their spouses and children can be taken care of
when they are deployed,”
he added.
The open house was
supported by local businesses and organizations
including Joe’s Family Pizzeria, MyFM, and CANEX,
who donated the event’s
top prize of a Dell Tablet.

all ages to come out, enjoy themselves and learn more about the organization. (Top right photo) Master

Adopt Herman Street School, help improve its library
Local school has until Oct 4 to earn the most on-line ‘adoptions’.
By Patricia Leboeuf
Petawawa Post
Being adopted by Coles
Bookstore in Pembroke
means that Herman Street
Public School will be able
to improve its library. Winning the $10,000 Love of
Reading Program contest
could mean a complete
overhaul.
“Not only is the regular (adoption) program going on, where they are trying to raise between $2,500
and $3,000 for books for us
to purchase through Coles,
now we are also part of this
Love of Reading Adopt-aSchool program and can get
an additional $10,000,” said
Grade 4-5 teacher Jen Young.
But there is a catch.
To win the contest, Herman Street must become
the most adopted school in
the province, which is done
by a simple click on the
contest’s website.
“All you need is an
email address,” said Young.
“… and you can visit it every single day.”
Herman Street Public
School is the only school
in Renfrew County participating in the contest and
Young hopes that this will
encourage residents of the
entire Ottawa Valley to support them.
“We are competing
against the bigger city centres,” said Young.
The school has until
Oct. 4 to top the online
charts. This date coincides
with a Circus Fun Day,
which will be held between
11 a.m. and 2 p.m. at the
Pembroke Mall.
“They are trying to
have a circus theme,” said
Young. “So they are trying
to get the mascot from the
Pembroke Mall to come,
they are trying to get balloon animals and the parents here at Herman Street
School have kindly offered
to donate baked goods or
crafts items.”
Everything that is sold
at that book/craft fair will
go towards purchasing
books for the school.
Young made the opportunity of winning such
a large amount of money
possible by approaching
the bookstore in June. She
was absolutely thrilled
when Coles accepted to
help generously fund their
library.
She admits that the current state of the library is
somewhat lacking as, typically, the only way they get
new books is when parents

donate them, or through
fundraisers.
“Libraries aren’t funded
by the government anymore,” said Young. “Schools
get a budget to run the
school and it is up to the individual principal to find ...
the money to keep the libraries going. Depending on the
needs of a school, sometimes
libraries are the last thing to
get money for.”
Winning the contest
will allow the school to better its library in ways they
can barely imagine.
“It would be such a
windfall for us to be able
to purchase things,” said
Young. “We could even ...
let it sit there and earn some
interest so that over the
years we have a budget to
start with and not just rely
on the kindness of parents
and the book fairs.
“We can’t even imagine
yet what we’d do with that
money,” she added.

PAAC looking for new members
By Patricia Leboeuf
Petawawa Post
The Petawawa Accessibility Advisory Committee
(PAAC) is looking for more
people to fill its ranks and
help make the town a more
inclusive place to live.
Councillor Theresa Sabourin, chairwoman of the
PAAC, believes that by joining the PAAC, people can
achieve real changes in the
community.
“We actually make a difference and we do move the
agenda forward,” she said.
The PAAC has a direct
hand in shaping and improving municipal buildings, walkways, streets,
sidewalks, the way the subdivisions are planned and
much more.
“It’s very exciting,” said
Sabourin. “Because we actually do achieve results and
outcomes and we’ve seen
that throughout many of our
(initiatives.) ”
Over the past year, the
committee has been working on a number of projects and initiatives such as
customer training for town
staff, contractors and volunteers.
The committee was recently given a sneak peak
at a development site plan
for the first time in order to
share their opinions on the
design. This allows new
buildings to have adequate
parking, sidewalks and
things of that nature.
“We take a look at elements to see if they are impeding access for people
with disabilities or if they
are helping in that respect,”
said Sabourin.
“We do need people
looking at it from the lens of
what it is like to live with a
disability so we can improve
what we do,” she added.
The PAAC has also put
month.
Members also attend
showcases and workshops
“and that’s just plain fun to
meet with our residents and
hear about how much they
love Petawawa and how
we can make their lives better here, ” said Sabourin.
For more information, or
to become a member of the
PAAC, please call the Town
of Petawawa Municipal Offices at 613-687-5536.
in an application to the Enabling Accessibility Fund,
which will help alter both
entrances of Town Hall and
make them more accessible.
With the help of the
PAAC, Petawawa has the
goal of becoming fully accessible by 2025, allowing
people with physical challenges, either permanent
or temporary, to reach their
full potential.
“It all comes down to
equal rights for everybody,”
said Sabourin. “It’s about
respecting people’s dignity
and self-worth. If you can
access the community and
services ... the same way as
everybody else, that is really the goal here, to ensure
there are no barriers.
“If you can’t open a door
or you can’t get into a building or can’t grab a doorknob, you can’t meet your
daily needs,” she added.

Fall craft show supports Ontario SPCA
By Patricia Leboeuf
Petawawa Post
The Fall in the Valley
Craft and Vendor’s show
gave the local Ontario SPCA
a paw by donating some of
its funds to the organization.
Event organizer Jennifer Renauld hopes that the
show will be able to raise
$500, held congruent to the
Friends for Life Walkathon
in Pembroke on Sept. 21.
Every time the quarterly show rolls into the
Petawawa Civic Centre,
Renauld chooses a charity
to support. This time the
SPCA was the best fit.
“I thought it was quite
appropriate that it was on
the same day (as the Walkathon),” said Renauld. “I’m
hoping to attract those people to come here afterwards.
“I just have a love of animals and they always need
money,” she added explaining her reasons for picking
that particular charity. “I’m
a strong supporter.”
Money for the Ontario
SPCA Renfrew County
Branch was raised through
a silent auction, with all
proceeds going directly to
the organization.
Though charitable notions were at play, it was
also an opportunity for 32
Petawawa and area crafters
and vendors to display their
goods and wares and show
residents what they can do.
The show attracted a
large crowd of shoppers,
eager to support both the
SPCA and the area’s merchants. Renauld does believe that her show’s popularity is bolstered by the
desire to shop local.
“It’s local artisans so
you aren’t getting people
that are from far, far away,”
said Renauld. “You are
leaving the business within
the community as well.
“So far everything has
been great,” she added.
“We’ve been very successful. We’ve had a good
crowd already.”
A winter craft show will
be held on Dec. 14 at the
Petawawa Civic Centre. The
charity that event will support is currently unknown.

Petawawa Heritage Village Youth
Program a big success
PETAWAWA - The Petawawa Heritage Village
continued to run the Youth
Program at the Village during the summer of 2014.
This program runs every Tuesday and Thursday
during July and August for
four hours per day.
Petawawa
Heritage
Society President Ann McIntyre said thanks to donations, the program is run
free of charge.
To join the program,
participants must be between the ages of 10 and 14.
Applicants must submit a
letter to Mrs McIntyre by
May 1, 2015 and drop it off
at the Petawawa Civic Cente office. Only 10 students
are accepted.
The students learn the
history of Petawawa, make
candles and butter, do laundry, bake bread, spend a
day in the blacksmith shop,
attend school and discover
collection management.
They also develop first
person interpretive characters with the help of Richard Crocker from Upper
Canada Village.
The best part, however,
is to dress in costumes and
have fun.
Mrs McIntyre added the
program is a wonderful way
for young people to discover
that history can be fun.
Thanks to the hard
work and dedication of
Dana Zaumseil, Corrine
Gaudet, and Aaron Postlethwaite, the 2014 program
was excellent.

6,000 km trek will pass through Pembroke, Golden Lake
SAGUENAY– Dr. Stanley Vollant,
a former member of the University of
Ottawa faculty and surgeon at Hôpital Montfort, will be back in the Témiscamingue, Outaouais and Eastern
Ontario regions from September 19 to
October 9.
Dr Vollant, the first native surgeon
to hail from Quebec, is currently on a
6,000-kilometre trek, on foot and in a
canoe, seeking to meet with Aboriginal youth. He wants to talk to them
about healthy life habits, staying in
school and the importance of holding
on to one’s dreams.
“I’m really pleased to be going
through part of the Mohawk territories and the Algonquin territories located in Abitibi-Témiscamingue and
the Ottawa River valley,” noted Dr
Vollant. “I have covered almost 4,000
kilometres to date, on foot, through
Quebec, Labrador, Ontario and New
Brunswick, but there’s a lot of ground
to cover on the road to emancipation
for our native peoples.
“The communities I have visited
are already feeling the impact of the
Innu Meshkenu walk, and this energizes me so I can continue my trek,”
he added.
Dr Vollant began his journey
through the region on Sept 19, heading on foot to the Algonquin commu-
nities of Wolf Lake and Eagle River,
on the shores of Lac Kipawa in Témiscamingue.
On Sept 20, he left the town of
Témiscaming in a Voyageur canoe,
paddling down the Ottawa River.
His next stop will be the community
of Pikwakanagan in Golden Lake on
Sept 28, walking from Pembroke to
Lake Doré on the 27th and on the 28th,
between Wilberforce Park (Lake Doré)
and Golden Lake. He will also meet
with a group of young participants
at the very first Aboriginal leadership
camp organized by the Breakfast Club
of Canada in Quyon on Oct 2.
Another public walk is planned
for Oct 4 in partnership with the Native Women Association of Canada, in
the streets of Ottawa and Gatineau. Dr.
Vollant will then continue his journey
down the river to Clarence-Rockland,
and then proceed on foot towards
Cornwall, to meet with the Akwesasne
Mohawk community on Oct 9.
During his time in the nation’s
capital, Dr Vollant will be accompanied by Ghislain Picard, National
Chief of the Assembly of First Nations
(AFN):
“I commend Dr. Vollant’s determination and dedication as he travels
to many of our communities talking
to our youth about the importance of
healthy lifestyles and healthy choices,
including respect for one’s self, one’s
culture and the wisdom of the Elders,” said Picard. “This is the foundation for achieving our goals in life
and the foundation for healthy and
strong communities. Dr. Vollant is an
inspiration and a true role model for
First Nations youth and I speak for all
First Nations in thanking him for this
initiative.”
Anyone who is interested in walking with Dr Vollant, for a day or a
few hours, can visit http://www.
innu-meshkenu.com/en/ to review
the information they need in order to
participate.
The Innu Meshkenu project organizers can also be reached by contacting the Centre des Premières Nations
Nikanite, Université du Québec à
Chicoutimi, at 418-545-5011, extension 2416.
About the Innu Meshkenu project:
As he covers the Innu Meshkenu
(path of all humans) on foot, Dr Stanley Vollant expects to walk almost
6,000 kilometres over the course of
this five-year project that is expected
to conclude in the winter of 2016.

Robbie Dean Family Counselling Centre expands services in Renfrew County
Expansion made possible by grant from Green Shield Canada
The Renfrew County Suicide Prevention and Crisis Centre for Youth and Families is poised to begin its second year of
operation by expanding services into the
Arnprior and Petawawa areas in September, thanks to a generous grant from the
Green Shield Canada (GSC) Community
Giving Program and continued support
from various area Rotary Clubs.
The suicide prevention and crisis service supports youth, families and community members who are impacted by emotional crises such as suicide ideation and
self-injury behaviour. The service, under
the direction of suicide prevention specialist Tom Sidney, provides support for those
who struggle to find healthy coping strategies during their crises. The expansion
builds on a successful year of operation at
its Pembroke and Renfrew locations.
At the four locations, youth, families and
community members in crisis have access
to free weekly walk-in intervention clinics.
These clinics focus on crisis intervention and
safety planning, suicide assessment, self-injury support, referral to additional services,
parent education, community intervention
training and system navigation.
The Robbie Dean Family Counselling
Centre has partnered with local agencies
that have generously provided space to the
expanded services. The Arnprior service
will take place each Monday from 1:00 to
5:00 pm at the Kenwood Centre, 16 Edward
Street South. The Petawawa service will
take place each Tuesday from 1:00 – 5:00
pm at the Petawawa Centennial Family
Health Centre, 154 Civic Centre Road.
The Pembroke service continues each
Wednesday evening from 5:00 to 9:00 pm
at the Ottawa Valley Health and Wellness
Centre, 715 Mackay Street, while the Renfrew service takes place each Thursday evening at the same time from the Community
Mental Health Day Program offices at the
Services Ontario building, 316 Plaunt Street.
Parent support groups are also scheduled throughout the county supported by
Parents’ Lifeline of Eastern Ontario (PLEO).
Information on these groups can be found
on the PLEO website along with a variety of
resources and a chat line for parents.
As the wider community is also impacted by an attempted or successful suicide, the
Robbie Dean Family Counselling Centre also
sponsors other support programs. For example, prevention and training sessions for
individuals and groups are conducted by a
certified, registered LivingWorks instructor
using safeTALK. As well, post-suicide de-

briefing sessions are offered as needed.
The Suicide Prevention and Crisis Centre
began in June 2013 as a nine-month pilot program funded by several Rotary Clubs in Renfrew County. Based on the success of this pilot, the service was formalized in March 2014.
Several Rotary Clubs in the county continue
to support the service financially.
The GSC Community Giving Program
has supported the health and wellness of
canadian communities since 1992. Creating innovative solutions that improve access to better health care for Canadians is
a top priority. GSC is the country’s only
national not-for-profit health and dental
benefits specialist. GSC is proud to support
programs and services that make a difference in their communities, such as the Suicide Prevention and Crisis Centre.
The Renfrew County Suicide Prevention and Crisis Centre is one of several
mental health services sponsored by the
Robbie Dean Family Counselling Centre
that are focussed on youth and community members who are marginalized and
underserviced. The Robbie Dean Family
Counselling Centre began operations in
June, 2012 through the championship of
the West Champlain Healthy Community
Corporation.

Choosing The Right Wedding Reception Favours For Your Wedding!
Planning a perfect
wedding is no small undertaking. From scheduling venues and hiring
vendors to tasting menus,
lots of decisions must be
made when planning a
FREE
WEDDING
SHOW!
wedding. But when the
pieces fall into place, the
entire day can be magical.
One of the final components of weddings are the
favours guests will take
home with them as mementos of the festivities.
Though favours don’t
require immediate attention, that does not mean
couples should wait until
the last minute to make
decisions regarding their
wedding favours.
Be creative
Wedding favours can
be just about anything, so
there’s no need to stick to
Jordan almonds or wine
bottle stoppers. The more
creative couples are,
the more receptive their
guests will likely be.
Complete the theme
Some weddings follow
a particular theme from
start to finish, and wedding favours should stick
with that theme. For example, couples who will
showcase their love of
travel on their wedding
days may want to give
guests keychains or purse
holders that feature popular landmarks around
the world.
Go traditional
Couples who opt for
universally
appealing
favours can lean toward
some popular options,
such as silver cake servers, candlestick holders,
decorative photo frames,
or engraved keepsake
boxes. Aim for favours
that have utility. Otherwise, favours may end up
collecting dust on someone’s shelf.
Food and beverage gifts
are fun
Cut-Rite
Food favours mean
guests can enjoy their
gifts and not have to worry about finding space
inside their homes to display trinkets.

Seating Solutions: How To Manage Seating Arrangements
After all of the invitations have been sent and
RSVPs returned, engaged
couples who are including a sit-down dinner as
part of their wedding receptions must figure out
the seating arrangements
for their guests. Such a
task can be both fun and
stressful.
The fun of making seating arrangements stems
from reuniting friends
and family members who
couples feel will enjoy
one another’s company
and make the reception
that much more fun. But
feuding family members
can make the task of assigning seats somewhat
stressful. Couples need
not be relationship experts to plan seating arrangements that ensure
guests have a good time.
The following tips can
help couples enjoy the
process of mapping out
their wedding reception
seating assignments as
much as possible.
* Don’t seat guests in
the hopes of quashing
old conflicts. While the
jovial spirit of a wedding
ceremony and reception might seem like the
perfect atmosphere for
feuding friends or family members to bury the
hatchet with regard to
old conflicts, this leaves
open the potentially ugly
possibility that such
conflicts might escalate.
Couples don’t want their
weddings to be remembered for all the wrong
reasons, so keep feuding
factions apart when assigning seats.
* Keep special needs
guests in mind. Some
guests at the wedding
may have special needs,
and this must be kept
in mind when planning
seating
assignments.
Guests with medical conditions may benefit from
sitting close to the restroom, while those with
mobility issues might
be best served sitting in
a spot where waitstaff
can more easily recognize when they need
something. Consider sitting older guests, whose
vision might not be as
strong as it once was, as
close to the happy couple as possible so these
guests can see everything and won’t feel left
out.
* Make sure the seating assignment table is
easily accessible. The
table on which seating
assignment cards will be
placed should be accessible upon entering the
reception hall. A table
that’s far off in the corner may confuse some
guests, who might think
the seating is a free-for-

all and simply sit in the
first empty seats they see.
* Consider flow between tables when making assignments. While
you might have aced the
seating assignments at
each table, don’t overlook the importance of
mapping out tables as
well. No couple wants
their guests to feel isolated from friends or family
members at other tables,
so do your best to ensure
there’s a good flow between the tables. Plan for
tables of family members
to be placed next to one
another, and do the same
with groups of friends.
This encourages guests
to mingle and can make
the night much more enjoyable for everyone involved.
Planning seating assignments for a wedding
reception is no small task.
But couples can employ
several strategies to make
the process go as smoothly as possible, when it
comes to their big day.

Disaster Response Training: The role of altruistic militaries
While the scenarios are often fabricated, the training is very real!
By Helen Bobat
Canadian Army Public Affairs
NEW CALEDONIA,
SOUTH PACIFIC — In
the last ten years, humanitarian aid, disaster response, and non-combatant evacuation Operations
(NEO) training has grown
in complexity with multiple new roles for military.
These roles have evolved
from lessons learned on
the international stage, increasingly rapid response
and assessment times,
new coordination techniques, and challenges in
accessing people caught
in conflicts or war zones.
Couple these complexities with the increasingly destabilized geopolitical environment, and
it is easy to understand
why it is essential for the
military to become better
trained to engage in the
delivery of humanitarian
aid and disaster response
and develop their expertise in NEO in order to
perform their job.
Picture, if you can, a
tropical island, almost
perfectly flat, with abundant vegetation, dense
interior jungles, terraced
cliffs, and breathtaking
reefs and you have imagined Lifou Island, or Drehu, as it is known in the
local language. The island,
the largest of the Loyalty
Islands in the archipelago
of New Caledonia is backdrop to this year’s biennial multinational training
exercise, CROIX DU SUD.
Since 2002, Exercise
CROIX DU SUD has been
organized and hosted every two years by the High
Command of the New
Caledonia Armed Forces
(FANC) to train and conduct humanitarian assistance and NEO following
a natural disaster. “It is
easy to organize Exercise
CROIX DU SUD in New
Caledonia because of the
geographical location of
the archipelago, and the
ability to add in a maritime
component,”
explains
Lieutenant-Colonel (LCol)
Christopher Ysewyn in his
role as Commander Land
Forces for this exercise
and Commanding Officer, Marine Infantry Regiment, Pacific, New Caledonia (RIMaP, NC).
“The French Armed
Forces planned and created
a realistic scenario that allowed for the interoperabil-

ity of marine, air force and
military components from
Canada, the United Kingdom, the United States,
France, Australia, and New
Zealand alongside other
Pacific nations, and offered
opportunities to increase
the operational capabilities of all participating nations,” he continued.
This year’s training
scenario is set in the overall context of the delivery
of aid to victims of disaster following a major tsunami. The scenario included a response to a call for
international
assistance
and a NEO following a
critical situation that had
rapidly degenerated into
violence under the influence of agitators and political activists.
To succeed in the mission, commanders had to
implement actions to restore stability in the region.
That included the deployment of significant sea and
air forces on Lifou Island,
which allowed the delivery of humanitarian relief
and a successful NEO.
Major (Maj) Patrick
Chartrand, Commander
Canadian Contingent explained that, “Canadian
soldiers, coming primarily
from 2nd Canadian Division with some support
from 5th Canadian Division, provided a light infantry platoon attached to
a multinational company
commanded by New Zealand which also included
a platoon of American
Marines. Maj Chartrand’s
main task during the exercise was the assessment of
the amphibious manoeuvres and procedures of the
infantry company.
LCol Ysewyn`s mission during the scenario
was to, “[…] ensure the
safety of the foreign nationals in a degraded and
deteriorating
environment.” He explains that
tact and diplomacy play a
large part in mission success, “We have to be careful in such situations because the use of excessive
force can turn the local
population against you.”
“Multinational training exercises like CROIX
DU SUD, allow allied militaries to observe the procedures that other armies
employ and to exchange
knowledge, skills and ex-
pertise,” says Maj Chartrand. He noted that the
activities assigned to the
Canadian platoon, which
included the coordination
and establishment of evacuation points, identification of civilians for NEO,
escorting them to various
evacuation points on the
island, and liaising with
the different fictional government
organizations,
were all activities that
would be conducted in a
real-life NEO situation.
According to Corporal Maxime Larivée, a
Canadian soldier on the
exercise, “A soldier is a
soldier, regardless of the
country of origin or the
uniform one wears. Our
different platoons worked
independently, but it was
easy when we had to
work together with a foreign platoon.” Not new to
the tasks he was assigned
to, Cpl Larivée says the
exercise, “[…] allowed me
to note the similarities and
difference between the
Tactics, Techniques and
Procedures of the Canadian Army, versus those of
our allied counterparts on
the exercise. We were also
able to observe the difference between our equipment and theirs.”
Cpl Larivée`s observations are echoed by Maj
Chartrand, “This type of
multinational exercise allows us to not only observe the procedures that
other armies employ, but
to share our own knowl-
edge, skills, and expertise
to enhance allied armies
participation in any operation, anywhere in
the world, at any time.
CROIX DU SUD allowed
us to experience firsthand, the seamless transition of the various military
components involved and
included in multinational
humanitarian aid and disaster relief operations.
In addition, and perhaps
most important, these
types of exercises permit
us to forge ties with, and
demonstrate interest in
maintaining relationships
with our alliances.”

The cohesion PT between New Zealanders and Canadians.

The Osons Challenge - We Dare
By Master Corporal Melissa Spence
4 Div - Canadian Army Public Affairs
Dark and early on the morning of Thursday September 4th, 2014 over a hundred junior officers representing the units of 2 Canadian Mechanized Brigade Group (CMBG)
in Petawawa, embarked on a challenge that
would take them 36 grueling hours to complete. The Osons Challenge would test their
military skills, their ability to successfully
work as a team, their mental and physical
endurance, and their warrior spirit.
This year marked the first Osons since
1997. The challenge, created by BrigadierGeneral (BGen) Yule (Ret.) in 1981, takes
its name from the 1st Special Service Force
motto meaning “We Dare”.
Teams of four (and two teams of three)
were chosen randomly, to include a mix of
trades. The winners would be determined
by their overall score and finish time, but
not necessarily by who finished first. These
original teams had to work together and
stay together until the end.
By day and by night, 62km were covered through water, air, and land, testing
military skills such as marksmanship, navigation, weight-load marching, running,
rappelling, river crossing, assault boating,
knots, teamwork and so much more.
“There’s a little bit of body toughening
going on, there’s some lessons learned…
Those are all fundamental lessons that, as
junior officers and leaders in the Canadian
Armed Forces, these soldiers need to know
so that when they ask their men and women to do specific tasks they understand
what they mean and where the line is and
what’s in excess of that line,” said event organizer, Major Mark Sheppard.
The trophy, donated by BGen Yule
(Ret.), and the bragging rights that go with
it was deservingly awarded to Lieutenant
(Lt) Harry Little, Lt Todd Everett, Captain
Sarah Halstead, and Lt Bonvouloir of team
“Charlie.”

FALL DRIVING TIPS
PLAN AHEAD FOR WET CONDITIONS
Fall often brings rainfall, which can decrease visibility and cause
hydroplaning. Make sure your windshield wipers are in good working
condition. If driving on a road with excess water, slow down and avoid
sudden movements with the steering wheel or brake pedal. If you feel like
you’re floating, steer straight and gently release the gas pedal until you
feel the tires make contact with the road surface. In an especially heavy
downpour you may want to pull off the road until it’s safe to continue.

5 tips for relocating

LOCATED IN THE HEART OF TRENTON
156 MacLellan
This charming 2 storey 4 bed 2 bath solid brick home offers
groomed gardens & a totally enclosed back yard for your privacy
and tranquility. Four season sun room and covered front porch.
Spacious eat in kitchen & formal dining area. With a little of your
decorating touch, this house will be your dream home.
headaches involved with
moving, an estimated 43
million Americans move
each year. Those moving
are often married couples
between the ages of 25 and
44 with one or two children
between the ages of 2 and
11. To make the process go
more smoothly, consider
the following tips.
1. Gradually introduce
the concept of moving.
Moving is a decision to be
discussed with the whole
family, even with young
children who may not fully
understand the process.
Kids who are involved in
looking at new homes or
voicing opinions about
which amenities they desire in a new neighborhood
will feel empowered and in
control.
continued on page 21
Did you know the average person moves 11.4
times in his or her lifetime?
So says the most recent information from the U.S.
Census Bureau. Various
factors prompt people to
move, from job opportunities to the desire to be closer
to family members to wanting to live in a nicer climate.
Moving is seldom an
easy task, and is often
ranked among the most
stressful events in a person’s life. The Employee
Relocation Council cites
it as the third most stressful event in life, following
only death and divorce.
That stress is only heightened when an entire family
is making the move and an
adult is starting a new job
simultaneously.

5 tips for relocating the family ... continued from page 20
2. Research potential new
neighborhoods
carefully.
Finding a new residence is
not entirely about buying
a home that fits the family and its needs. It also is
about finding a desirable
neighborhood and community. A good school district
is an important factor, as is
proximity to recreation, local culture and transportation. Drive around a neighborhood during different
times of the day to gauge
how active it is. Investigating businesses in the area
can also help gauge the personality of a given neighborhood.
3. Work with an experienced agent. A real estate
agent who is familiar with
NEW LISTING
$224,900
a variety of communities
is a great asset. A buyer’s
agent will find homes and
negotiate on the part of the
buyer, having your best
interests in mind. Because
the agent will be paid a
commission on a portion
of the sale price, which
doesn’t come out of your
pocket, it is in the real estate agent’s best interest to
help you find a home you
can call your own. In addition, the agent will handle
many of the tasks that may
be overwhelming if you
were doing them on your
own, such as scouring
available listings, waiting
for inspections or filling
out pertinent paperwork.
With a real estate agent
handling these tasks, families can remove some of
the stress from the moving
process.
4. Pack children’s
rooms last. Young children
who see favorite items
disappearing into bubble
wrapping and boxes may
start to feel anxious. It’s
not uncommon for preschoolers to act out or experience nightmares during the moving process.
Maintain a sense of normalcy in the home as long
as possible. Begin by packing nonessential items,
only packing kids’ items
when your moving date is
right around the corner.
Let children say goodbye to familiar haunts and
even to their old home.
5. Plan a school orientation. Take advantage
of any programs schools
offer to acclimate kids to
their new environment.
Kids often leave friends
behind when moving to
a new home. The faster
they get back to a normal
routine, the better it will
be for them. Schools are
where children will make
new friends and participate in social occasions,
so tour their new schools
before the school year begins, and meet with a few
residents and current students to learn about special programs that may
make a move less stressful
for youngsters.
Relocating a family can
be stressful. But involving
