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.

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.” For a complete list of the results and the electronic copy of the Communities in Bloom magazine, please visit www.communitiesinbloom.ca.

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. For more information on the PMFRC, please visit hwww.familyforce.ca. The PMFRC Open House, held on Sept. 18 at the South Side Community Centre, allowed people of all ages to come out, enjoy themselves and learn more about the organization.

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 Smile Cookie proceeds to CPAN Store e h T n I W h e r e Is Mo Tim Hortons Team Member Katie Fletcher at left and Lyn Smith, Coordinator of the Renfrew County Child Poverty Action Network (CPAN) show off a pan of Smile Cookies. During the week of Sept 14 to 22, sales of Smile Cookies at each of three Tim Hortons locations in Pembroke went towards CPAN and its Backpack Plus program. (Post photo by Bruce Peever) 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.

SIGN UP FOR OUR MONTHLY E-MAIL NEWSLETTER http://bit.ly/pmfrc-email Petawawa Post, September 25, 2014, Page 9 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. Food banks receive funds from Civitan The Fall in the Valley Craft and Vendor show allowed local artisans to show off their talents. Karen Thomas and her nine-year-old daughter Emma stand proudly beside a display of belt bracelets that Karen lovingly created.

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.

(Submitted photo) 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.

Petawawa Post, September 25, 2014, Page 11 sports, health & recreation 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- Season opener victory for Fellowes Falcons A Fellowes Falcon prepares to make a tackle on a Mackenzie Mustang ball carrier during football action Sept 18 at Fellowes Alumni Field.

(Post photo by Bruce Peever) 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.

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.

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- A BRIDAL SHOW with ALL the exclusive vendors YOU want for your wedding day!

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.

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- GOING ON A TOUR OR EXTENDED TRIP?

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.” Maj Chartrand captured here after the landing practice. The cohesion PT between New Zealanders and Canadians. The Canadian platoon during the opening ceremony of Exercise CROIX DU SUD. Petawawa Post, September 25, 2014, Page 15 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.” Photo by Sgt Jean-Francois Lauzé, Garrison Imaging Petawawa (Above left to right) Lieutenant (Lt) Ethan McDonald, Lt Valerie Touchette-Mosley, Lt Henry Luk and Lt Alex Labelle reach the shore of Chalk Bay after being dropped off by boat a few hundred metres away; (below) The Osons award is presented to Charley Team, (centre left to right) Lieutenant Harry Little from 1 Royal Canadian Regiment, Lieutenant Olivier Bonvouloir from 12 ASIC, Captain Sarah Halstead from 1 Royal Canadian Regiment, and Lieutenant Todd Everett from 2 Royal Canadian Horse Artillery by Retired Brigadier-General Yule (left), and Colonel Peter Dawe, Commander of 2 Canadian Mechanized Brigade Group (right).

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. happening Petawawa Post, September 25, 2014, Page 19 For Notices of Club Meetings, Bazaars, Fun Fairs, Fundraisers, and other charitable, non-profit events happening in the community.

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.

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.
