Si Miller Arena - 1936 to 2011BROUGHT TO YOU BY: In Lamoureux Park FALL HOURS

The Cornwall Community Museum

is now open Wednesday to Sunday

from 11 am to 4 pm.

Admission is free,

info. 613 936-0842

Historically Cornwall's citizens have rallied together to provide community amenities. Over the last century Horovitz Park, the new Benson Centre,the old Cornwallis Hotel, the Cornwall Community Museum, Cornwall Industrial Development Ltd., the Aquatic Centre and the Si Miller Arena,originally known as the Cornwall Community Arena, were all started and funded in part by local citizens.

In 1936 Cornwall needed a new arena, as the Victoria Rink had been destroyed by fire in 1933.

To correct this loss "a group of local prominent men, representing both city council and Board of Trade (Chamber of Commerce)" sounded out leadingcitizens and industrial leaders and concluded a natural ice arena was feasible. In typical fashion the naysayers stopped the project. However, neverone to take no for an answer, Mayor Aaron Horovitz, at the inauguaral meeting of town council in 1935, announced his intentions "to revive themovement for an artificial ice arena." Within six weeks the committee had garnered overwhelming public support for the project.

By the end of the month the fundraising committee had $20,000 or more than $2 million in today's money.

To make this a true community effort the committee then issued a prospectus to sell stocks in the project. The pamphlet advertising the stocks read"Cornwall has earned and enjoys a reputation of being a progressive town because the citizens take an interest in the development of thecommunity...Now it is proposed to build a community rink. To finance this it is necessary to obtain $60,000 through the sale of shares at $10 a piece."With everyone from mill workers to professional people contributing the campaign was over by the end of May.

In June a new board of directors headed by Mayor Horovitz and filled by W.L. Macfarlane, B.D. Millidge, W. Jones, W.V. Boyd, J.G. Miron, M.S. Dunn, W.A.Dingwall, J.A. Labonee, D.B. Roth and C.C. Munro, announced that they had purchased the site for the arena for $4,000.

In August the contract to build it was awarded to Hodgins Lumber of Cornwall.

In November 1936 the newspaper reported "Cornwall's New Artificial Ice Arena Symbol of Community Enterprise." Built when local people believedwe deserved the best, the rink was described as one of the best for a city of this size anywhere on the continent."

Providing seating for 1,587 spectators and standing room for an additional 1,413, it was claimed that "it was impossible to find a single seat in thearena where the view of the ice surface is not at least good."

The facility boasted "three huge compressors" to provide ice, and seven miles of piping was installed to carry the salt solution to create the surface.

The report continued "Even in the seats directly over the ice-making machinery, it is almost impossible to feel any vibration, heavy insulation has cutthe noise to a point where it can barely be heard, even when the arena is empty." Even though Cornwallites were struggling with the GreatDepression more than 2,300 people contributed to their community arena. The City took over full ownership in 1963. Fittingly it was renamed theSi Miller Community Arena to honour City Parks and Recreation Director Si Miller's years of dedicated service to the City in 1994. With the nearingcompletion of the Benson Centre, the building is now slated for demolition.

The photographs and postcards are from the collection of more than 10,000

images at the Cornwall Community Museum. If you are interested in

learning more about our history the museum has a wide selection old and

modern local histories for sale, or you may visit the museum throughout the

winter every Wednesday from noon to 4 pm, and at other times by

appointment., weather permitting. Info. 613 936-0842.


COFFEE GRINDS -Special Post Election EditionIf Mark MacDonald won, and kept thisriding red, the Ontario Liberals andDalton McGuinty would have had amajority government right now.Despite the foundation that JimBrownell laid, the very hardworkingand tenacious Mark Macdonald wasunable to energize enough of the

Liberal base. The Liberals have a minoritygovernment, and Andrea Horwath finds herself thequeenmaker, because the Ontario NDP now hold the balance ofpower at Queen's Park. Both the Ontario NDP and Tim Hudakand the PCs have increased their seat totals in the Ontariolegislature. I would like to congratulate MPP Jim McDonell whohad a very convincing victory with 55% of the popular vote inSDSG. McDonell definately worked hard, however it was a bluewave in the counties that helped him sail to an easy victory. Inthis election I endorsed Elaine MacDonald on OurHomeTown.She had a strong performance Thursday night. I wrote a publicletter to my NDP friends on Facebook and said this: Today, let usbe loving, hopeful and optimistic. We now have a minoritygovernment in Ontario, and that means the NDP have a say. Wehave grown from 10 to 17 Members of Provincial Parliament,and our provincial candidate in SDSG gave us our best showinghere since the mid-1980s. It may not have been the results wewanted, but we had a successful election nonetheless, and weshould be proud of our collective efforts. Let us not look back inanger, but instead look forward to a bright orange future.

A strike quicker than a Lightning Bolt and a punchthat hits harder than Thunder, Tony Luis isbecoming quite the storm in the Boxing World.Powerful strikes had his opponent winded andgasping for air, Tony hollered at his opponent torise and fight again. Soon after rising, Tony shota few more punches, and his opponent on theground, had no choice but to forfeit.

“ It was shaping up to be a good fight, when he wasletting his hands go and he caught me, I was happy.This guy was making me work and was giving me achance to bring out the best in me,” the Champ saidafter his fight. Tony “Lightning” Luis returned hometo Cornwall, with a championship belt around hiswaist from his glorious win, obtaining the WBC

Continental Americas Light Welterweight Title at thePierre Carbonneau Centre in Montreal October 1, 2011. The fight was supposed to last 12

rounds, each being 3 minutes long. However, the fire fists Tony threw at Alejandro Barrera had himdown and out before first round had even ended.

At the start of the fight, it would have seemed that Alejandro Barrerra had the upper hand with hisquick jabs and his right hooks. However, it didn't take our Local Champ long before realizing hisfighting technique and taking the opportunities to strike back. The fight really took off from here,giving Lightning Luis full advantage of conquering the fight. Living up to his name, Lightning Luisthrew punches that were almost too fast to be seen. His powerful body shots put Barrera toshame as he fell for the first time winded on the ground. Struggling to rise again, Barrera put ona strong face, but it didn't take long for Luis to knock him down on his knees once again with thefinal blow to his body. Struggling to breathe and overwhelmed in pain, Lightning Luis' opponentfinally forfeited, and the 10 second count ended the fight.

Lightning Luis has racked up quite the record for himself. He is now standing undefeated 13-0,including five knockouts. Now that he's the best in the country, there is sure to be morecompetitors stepping up to the ring. Who knows what storm Lightning Luis will bring with him forhis next fight. I guess we will just have to wait and see the fight for ourselves!

“I'm curious to see what my next fight will be. I don't want this streak to be too good to be true. I willeventually hit a wall and I know they will not all be this easy. I'm scared and ready for the challenge,”

Tony Luis receives endless support from his local fan base in Cornwall and his growing fan baseoutside of Cornwall. If you`d like to be a fan, join his Facebook Group `Tony Lightning Luis`. Itprovides an inside scoop of his recent, current and upcoming events. This page is open to thepublic for posts, pictures and videos.

Searching for Investment

Income?

Explore All Your Options

As an investor, you obviously want your money togrow over time. But at many points in your life,you’ll also need your investments to provide youwith income. Fortunately, you’ve got some good

choices available to help produce the income you’ll need— today and in the future.

Consider the following types of income-producing vehicles:

• Fixed-income ladders — Fixed-income investments,such as bonds and Guaranteed Investment Certificates (GICs), provideincome in the form of interest payments. Typically, longer-term bonds payhigher interest rates to reward you for locking up your money for anextended time period. However, you may not want to just stock up onlong-term bonds, because when interest rates rise, longer-term bondstend to fall more in price. To help reduce this volatility, you may want tobuild a fixed-income “ladder” of bonds and GICs of varying maturities.When interest rates are low, you’ll still have your higher-paying, longer-term bonds working for you. But when market rates rise, you can reinvestthe cash from your maturing shorter-term bonds and buy new ones thatpay the higher rates.

• Income guarantees — Unless a bond issuer defaults,you can generally count on receiving regular interest payments. But if youwant an even stronger income guarantee, you may want to invest in animmediate annuity or segregated funds with guaranteed minimumwithdrawal benefits (GMWBs). As its name suggests, an immediateannuity will make payments immediately, or very soon after purchase,and these payments can continue for the rest of your life. A segregatedfund with a GMWB provides some protection by allowing you to withdrawa percentage of your investment annually guaranteed for life. The downside of immediate annuities and segregated funds is that they may giveyou less access to your principal than other investment vehicles, as well asless inflation protection and higher fees. But the opportunity to have aguaranteed income for life may outweigh those disadvantages.

• Dividend-paying stocks — You can invest in stocks orstock-based mutual funds that provide income in the form of dividends. Ifyou don’t currently need the income, you can reinvest the dividends,thereby increasing the amount of shares you own. Of course, you will beincurring greater risk to your principal than if you invested in fixed-incomevehicles or immediate annuities. Also, companies can reduce or eliminatedividends at any time without notice. However, dividend-paying stockstypically offer much higher returns than bonds. And in fact, for the last 10years, the average return for dividend-paying stocks exceeded the returnfor stocks that don’t offer dividends.Furthermore, many companies have consistently increased theirdividends year after year. This means that by investing in some dividend-paying stocks, you can achieve rising income, which you will need to stayahead of inflation. This is especially true during your retirement years,when you may no longer be able to count on regular increases in earnedincome from employment.

A professional financial advisor can help you choose the right mix ofincome-producing vehicles — bond ladders, immediate annuities,segregated funds with GMWBs and dividend-paying stocks — to meetyour needs, given your risk tolerance, family situation and other factors. Bycreating an effective investment strategy, you can go a long way towardachieving the income you need to reach your goals.

WHEN CARING GETS YOU IN TROUBLEArticle by Julia Lucio

Heart of the family. What a meaningful name for a daycare. And one would expectthat the care provided at this establishment would be nothing short of what a familywould provide.

However, recently, a young hard working mother of 3, who voiced her concernedover the fact that her daughters didn’t seem properly looked after, found herself ,well, out of care.

“I simply asked the daycare attendant why my daughter’s diaper was so full that itwas falling apart and why my kids were not changed in their pajamas before goingto sleep. Granted, my voice and tone were annoyed, but I was careful because Iknew there were kids around. What parent wouldn’t be irritated to find their kidssoaking in their wet diaper!”

The caregiver who was on duty that night made a formal complaint to themanagement stating that the mother “scared her and the other kids”.

And just like that, one night, when she was dropping off the children, as she didevery night, mom was denied service, under the pretense that she had notsubmitted her work schedule, when in fact, she had given it to the same daycareattendant. “It was 30 minutes before I had to get to work and I had nowhere to turn.Never once did I raised my voice. I was 100% respectful of the other children there,and mine were standing at the door the whole time… I did mumble a curse word ortwo under my breath, but nobody heard that. It was a horrible situation and I wouldlove to hear if they would have anything to say.”

“I now have no daycare and it’s hard for me to find something else because I workovernight oftentimes. No other daycare covers that shift. And If I have to put mydaughters in a home daycare somewhere at the house of somebody I don’t know, Imight as well just get on welfare and stay with them!”

So here is somebody who actually takes responsibility for herself and her kids. Sheworks 3 jobs, sometimes more, to make ends meet. She is not a burden to society.And she cares for her children. As a matter of fact, she cares so much, that when shesees that their very basic needs are not being met, she voices her concerns andactually gets penalized for it. She gets penalized by the very people SHE PAYS to carefor her children. And yes, care does mean changing diapers.

As of yet, we were unable to get the daycare’s side of the story on this, but we wouldlove to give them the opportunity to give an explanation as to why heart of thefamily showed no heart in this situation.

Without a Vision the Artist

will perish

A very wise man once said that “Where

there is no vision, the people will perish”

Proverbs 29:18; very simply put you need

a goal. Why is goal setting so

important? The short answer is without

a goal you have no way of determining

whether or not you have moved yourself forward. In my Art

classes and lectures on Business I always ask the group to set a

goal for themselves around the class.

The goal must fit some of the following criteria:

1. It must be able to be accomplished in the time allowed;

there is no point in setting to lofty a goal for a short term project

when only days or hours are available to dedicate to it.

Certainly there is nothing wrong with setting long term goals

just so long as you see them as such and set a series of short term

goals to get you from here to there.

2. It must be tangible and measurable; do not set the goal

of being rich some day as your goal after all my idea of rich may

not be yours. Instead if you want to earn a $100,000.00 a year,

month or per appearance then make that your goal. If you want

to play at certain clubs or show in a particular Art Gallery then

state it. Do not be afraid to aim high.

3. It must move you forward; always look ahead to the next level or

best venue. If you want to perfect a particular talent do it only if it will

move your work forward toward your goals. Don’t set a goal of perfecting

abstract painting if your goal is to be the next best thing to Robert

Bateman. Instead set goals that will move you toward the style of Art,

Music, Acting and Dance you want to be recognized for.

So now we understand about setting goals what exactly will those goals

look like? The time honored way to get a visual of your short and long

term goals is to make a Vision Board. This can be done with Foamcore

Board, magazines, scissors and glue or now with the magic of computers

we can set it up with any document maker, save it as a PDF and make it

wall paper. Have the Vision Board show all the things you wish to

accomplish while you are building your career both easily attainable and

those that may seem “Pie in the Sky” to others. Keep this Vision in a place

you will see it everyday and remind yourself daily that this is your Dream

and you will see it come true.

The flip side of this is that without the Vision and the goal setting you are

not focused enough to take yourself there. There is no magic Fairy

Godmother; no Genii in a bottle; no amount of wishing and hoping that

will get you there and soon the dream will die. This is sad but true. The

good news is as soon as you realize the power of having a Vision and

Goals you can be well on your way to success, a little late but better late

than never.

As a footnote, hang out with other Visionary Goal seekers they will help

inspire you and uplift you.

Special appreciation to all the staff at Ronaon Cornwall Centre Road for promoting the BBQ, to customers, family andfriends.

Last but not least to the Local Seeker for taking the time to document thisevent that turned out to be a great success!

The Lighter SideAfter a year of changes, I shocked myhairdresser last week, when Ideclared I wanted to change myhair. Wendy has been myhairdresser for over 14 years. Sheknows me and knows that when itcomes to my hair, I do not acceptchange easily.

I decided that day that I wanted to go for it. When Iarrived home from work, I printed out some photos ofwhat I would like and brought her photos, which reallyhelp her envision what I am looking for.

She gave pause when I asked and made sure I reallywanted to do it. I didn’t go too crazy, I opted for amedium cut which still touches my shoulders and meansI can tie it up or put it in a clip. This is essential to me. AsI saw the hair accumulate beside my chair and on thecape, I felt a momentary pang of panic. Will it look right,should I have opted for a less drastic move, and can I glueit back on? But then, I realized, it was a change I wanted.As she blowdried it and styled it, I realized I liked the newlook. It was fresh and made my hair feel fuller and

bouncier. It was part of the new me.

I then made my way to the store to pick up some new makeup, heyI was on a roll. I selected shades that accented my brown eyes, andpale complexion. I haven’t indulged in new makeup in a while. It’skind of ironic, since I spent over 10 years in a Cosmetic Departmentas a Certified Beauty Advisor. I felt a little pick-me-up was in order.I have been cleaning out my closets and removing anything thatdoesn’t fit right, that is starting to fade. These little changes aremaking a difference. After paring down my closet, I am findingthings I haven’t seen in a while. I’m starting to feel more confident,there is a spring in my step, and my long lost happy dance is back.

I also realized that I have become too serious. It is not difficultwhen you face a myriad of changes, and stress, but I needed tolaugh again. I watched some comedies and relaxed a bit lastweekend. No matter what is going on in yourlife you have to laugh sometimes. There are certain people in mylife that can really bring out my humorous side. During a recentvisit to a friend, we sat and talked about all the things going on inboth our lives. She cheered me up and as we sat talking I said a fewunexpected humorous observations. She was surprised, since Idon’t always let that side show. It made me realize that maybe I putup more of a barrier than I realize. Sure sometimes, you have towatch what you say, but I have a quick wit, that sometimes I tableso I don’t say anything inappropriate. It’s fun to let that carefreefunny side out every now and again.

It was nice to see the family at Thanksgiving dinner. We made apact not to bring up any upsetting topics and concentrate on thepositive things happening in our lives. We all took time to say whatwe were grateful for. I think my four year old niece was the mostgrateful of all. She had the longest thankful list I have ever heard.She’s so cute; it was hard not to laugh. She probably went homeafter and continued bringing everything up until her sleepy eyeswon the battle. I also had a great time playing foosball hockey withmy eight year old nephew Josh. I’d like to say I let him win, but I’dbe lying. He won and was so good at it. I’m glad to see he doesn’thave the same lack of coordination that his aunt and mom do.

I am lucky that I am close to my family and have a strong pool ofgreat friends who are always there for me. Life is messy sometimesand not always fair, but when you know you are not alone, it makessuch a difference. It’s easy to share a smile and a laugh and enjoylife. I hope that my family and friends feel the same way and knowthat I am always there for them. It is the little things in life thatreally matter.

CCVS Graduate

Jocelyn Jacques

Awarded Jason Edmonds

Emerging Artist

Scholarship

Cornwall Collegiate Vocational School graduate JocelynJacques was awarded the Jason Edmonds EmergingArtist Scholarship by the Lester B. Pearson School for theArts (LBPSA) at Art Harvest 2011, held onSeptember 24at the University of Western Ontario.

Art Harvest is an event that showcases dancers fromacross the province, and raises money for scholarships.The $1,000 bursary was named after Jason Edmonds, a23-year-old aspiring actor who was killed in a caraccident in 2000.

Jacques, a dancer who is enrolled in the Bachelor of FineArts in Contemporary Dance program at ConcordiaUniversity in Montreal, Quebec, said she feels incrediblyblessed to be receiving the scholarship.

“It helps ease my mind a little when it comes to thefunding for my schooling,” she said. “Three years ofuniversity is definitely not cheap. But, I know it will bewell worth it. I’m confident in that after only one week ofmy courses.”

Jacques said her dancing career truly began at St.Lawrence Secondary School (SLSS).

“I was originally a self-taught dancer,” she said. “But, onceI started classes at SLSS, I was introduced to many sidesof dance that I didn’t know existed. I learned partnering,group dances, choreography, basic movements andstretches that I still use today.”

When she started grade 11 at CCVS, Jacques said shewas introduced to technique, such as pointing, form andbalance.

“This experience inspired me to start taking classes outside school,” she said.

Jacques also credits SLSS and CCVS for introducing her to “touring.”

“We travelled to different places within our city and performed,” she said. “Itwas definitely a valuable learning experience. It helped present the idea ofshow business and what the lifestyle would be.”

Jacques will join CCVS alumnus Manuel Gagnon, as well as SLSS dancestudents, and participate in this year’s Art Harvest.

SLSS students will attend a workshop with renowned dancer Danny Grossman,and will be performing dances from the 2011 Step Into Motion Dance Festivalin Cornwall.“Our students are going to have the opportunity to dance with students fromother schools as well as professional dancers,” said SLSS dance teacher GiselePaquette.Paquette, who taught Jacques at SLSS, said she is so proud of her accomplishments.“I could always see the potential and love Jocelyn had for dance,” she said. “She was as enthusiastic and passionateabout her art as she is today. Last year, she brought tears to my eyes as a dancer, and getting this news brings upeven more emotions.“I have had many moments in my teaching career that I can recall as spectacular, but I must tell you that this one ison the top of my list,” she added.

Jacques said she looks forward to lots of dancing in her future.

“I want to perform and create,” she said. “After my degree, I hope to join a company or troupe and help create and share stories through dance.

“Honestly, I just want to perform and help translate valuable messages to people,” she added. “That’s my favourite part about dance. When I perform andsomeone comes up to me and says they understood it and are sincerely moved, that’s what drives me to do what I do.”

Our customers have had some recent big pulls (cards theyhave opened in packs) including a Bill Barilko 1/1 autographed card, aMichael Jordan Autographed card, a dual signed Sidney Crosby cardand a Napoleon Bonaparte memorabilia card."

The shop offers a place to meet other collectors, sit down and open abox of cards and enjoy a hockey game on TV.
