[" items from around the Valley Ride\u2019em, tractor at Huntingdon Fair The 175th edition of Huntingdon Fair is coming up August 15-17, and there will be birthday cake for all to mark the occasion at the Friday night opening ceremonies.The cake will come between the opening parade through the streets of town and the evening\u2019s entertainment, which will indeed be something new and different this year, says fair secretary Lynn Ouimet.\u201cWe\u2019re going to have lawn-mower races,\u201d she said, explaining that these will involve the ride-\u2019em kind, not the old- fashioned push mowers.Organized by a club in Northern New York State.the competitive mower-rac- ing circuit features pro-stock and pro- modified machines.\u201cWe're providing the location.and they do the rest,\u201d Ouimet said.\u201cThey tell us some mowers can reach speeds of 75 miles per hour.\u201d she added.Local entries In addition, there will be a third class for stock models.so local mowing maniacs can tune up their own machines and bring them in to compete against the neighbors, before watching the pros take off in a cloud of clippings.The races are set to begin about 8:15 p.m.: for more information and copies of the rules, call Lynn Ouimet at 264-4895.On Saturday evening, live music by the Phil Denault Band will include their tribute to the country-music band Brooks and Dunn.There will be more details about the fair later this month; in the meantime, prize lists should be available at the Huntingdon Tabagie and Valley Farm Supplies by the end of this week, Ouimet said.Closed Thursday July 10, 5 p.m., Open Friday To July 25,9 a.m.\\ No issues published July 16 & 23 â GE IP _ FAN Vitres d'autos 2790 boul.Hébert (Nitro) St-Timothee, | 371-3876 : 223

to save museum Jugs Tayo A group of Hemmingford residents, operating under the Heritage Hemmingford banner, are working against time to find a way to save a pri- vately-owned local museum for the community.About 40 people attended a June 16 meeting at the Town Hall, to discuss the announced intention of former fire chief Gaétan Fortin to sell his two buildings and the collections contained in them, known as the Hemmingford Museum.Fortin has indicated that he has received an offer from a non-local bidder for part of the museum property, and that the community action must act quickly if the loss of the antique firefighting equipment and its building is to be prevented.Fortin indicated that he would be willing to sell everything for $100,000.Heritage Hemmingford, a community group headed by Susan Heller, was reactivated to deal with the crisis, with the addition of three new committee mem- [ See Museum page 3 | we.\" If you're a true dog-lover, your chosen breed can range in size from

few days on the subject of dead birds.One caller simply wanted the phone number to report the finding of a dead crow, raven or blue jay.(It\u2019s 1-800- 368-1363, between 8:30 a.m.and 8 p.m.weekdays).THE OTHER CALLER - said she had tried repeatedly to get through to that number, but each time she was told all lines were busy, to hold or call back.She was pretty discouraged.We don\u2019t know if her problem was due to a glut of calls on the phone lines (if so, the West Nile thing must really be front and centre in the public consciousness) but we hope that the authorities are effectively continuing their monitoring of the dead bird situation as they promised earlier this summer.MEANWHILE - the last ten days of June made a big difference to the monthly heat-unit count, and to the growth of the corn crop in the Valley, not to mention the average temperature, we're told.FROM ORMSTOWN - Peter Finlayson reported a June temperature figure just about dead-on average, at 18.4° C., and normal precipitation, at 77 mm or about three inches, most of it coming at mid- month.The 655 heat units recorded in June brings the accumulated total so far to 894, not far behind the normal 929, and a bit above last year\u2019s 874 at the same time.LOCAL YOUNGSTERS - are still waiting for a promised skate park to be constructed in town for their skate-boarding activities.All that\u2019s needed is money - $35,000 in all, to build a safe and enclosed facility at Prince Arthur Park.But no municipal funding has been received, and organizers are hoping that local merchants will kick in $15,000 while municipalities in the area are going to be asked for $20,000.A GROUP - has been set up to promote the skate-park, with the aim of giving kids a suitable place to go, rather than hanging around the parking lots of the Chateau or the former Metro store.\u201cAs soon as we get $15,000, we'll start building,\u201d says Huntingdon Parks Association chairman Paul-Emile Trépanier.POSTPONED - is the latest word from Transport-Québec concerning projected culvert repairs on Route 203 in Tres-St- Sacrement.Originally scheduled to begin in June, the work is now supposed to start at the end of July, continuing until September 22.RAIN - on the evening of July 1, Canada Day, cut attendance at the annual baseball game and fireworks at the Athelstan Community Sports Association field.Unfortunately, the smaller-than- normal attendance left the Association in the hole to the tune of about $800 to pay for the fireworks.A NOTE - from Mike Pagé says that over 180

year it was these old flags, unpacked from a dusty trunk to add to the festive atmosphere.Later in the day, many people moved on to the Battle of the Chateauguay Museum at Allan\u2019s Corners, flags in hand (left), to enjoy music and cake.(Photos: JT, PL) Athelstan, but only Hinchinbrooke and Elgin offer financial support to the Association.A private donation from Paul De Martin has also helped, but more help is needed, from municipalities and from individuals, if the July 1 Fireworks tradition is to continue.TODAY - Wednesday, there\u2019s a Blood Donor Clinic at the St-Anicet fire station.Hours are 2-8 p.m, and they\u2019re hoping for 75 donors.THIS SATURDAY - will see the annual Chantal Dumas Omnium benefit golf tournament at the Ormstown Golf Club.Named on memory of the late Chantal Dumas, who died two years ago in a tragic accident, the event raises money for charities working with families.Last year, $4,500 went to Une affaire de famille; this year\u2019s beneficiary will be the Bosco family vacation camp in Valleyfield.The day includes a round of golf, dinner and a dance.To register or find out more, call 829-2061.THIS WEEKEND - marks the last chances to see the Rural Theatre Project\u2019s production Songs of the Yukon before it goes on tour to Rawdon and the Gaspé.An e-mail from Maric Pierre Dagenais of Franklin told us how much she enjoyed a recent performance, and urges others to go and see for themselves.For more information call 264-8120.IN CAZAVILLE - a $124,326 Human Resources Canada grant is paying 10 young adults to work on a project to

(the old Fire Hall and the Fisher Building) have a municipal evaluation of $58,000, committee members met with the owner, who said he already had a $60,000 offer for the Fisher Building and its land.Scaled-down plan Through negotiations and research, the committee found some legal details needed to be ironed out, but in the meantime, the group discussed various approaches.Members concluded that it would be unrealistic to think that $100,000 could be raised, especially since time constraints make it unlikely that government grants or subsidies would be forthcoming.The four-member committee then decided to aim for a $40,000 partial project to buy the old Fire Hall and its collection.(This does not include the former Village fire truck, which would remain the property of Mr.Fortin.) This plan would also involve additional costs to move the Fire Hall building to another site, perhaps near the community centre at the edge of town.In order for this plan to work, all local community groups and organizations must get on board and do their share of fund-raising, according to budget allocations and time limits, the committee agreed.The idea has already been approved in principle by the Township Council and was on the agenda for this week\u2019s Village Council meeting.\u201cWe must make sure we have a mandate from the citizens before we go ahead,\u201d explained Paul St-Amour.A reply must be given to Gaétan Fortin before August 22, he added.CANOES - KAYAKS - Let\u2019s meet on the Chateaugua RABASKAS River From Ormstown to Sainte-Martine a Information and registration 8 (450) 427-2555 or www.rivierechateauguay.qc.ca 2 RESERVE NOW 8 \u201cge C > 92992920 Thanks & ta Eco CitaitaUgU ES 52300 fo ouf Ville de Huatingdon \u2019 valley = pi Hydro et Loisir Qf Québec | abe a The Usage » July 0, 2003» 3.| 0 Centre financier Desjardins ll aux entreprises agricoles des Riverains Desjardins OUR SERVICES « Conventionnal farm loans * Line of credit * Pre-approved loans + Loans guaranteed by LA i FINANCIERE AGRICOLE DU y QUÉBEC + Life and disability loan insurance + Terre-a-terre program + AccèsD for business Desjardins payroll services * International services + Visa Desjardins business credit card * Point-of-sale terminal + Net Income Stabilization Account (NISA) +» Conventional and collective RRSP * Investment funds + Group insurance for business * Solo-SécuriTerre program * Financing at point-of-sale The Centre financier agricultural team is composed of 18 Agriculture : Specialists SA 5 of which are Garon, a, are account agronomes.Bilingual Service Richard Lacharité Jeanne McKenzie Alison Brosseau, agr.Director of agricultural Directrice du Centre Director of agricutur: ral, You can always count on one of our agricultural account directors.Most of all, he knows your enterprise and has the knowledge to become a precious actor of your success.!

At Monday night\u2019s meeting of the Town Council, one of the announced candidates for mayor raised the issue of pet snakes of a significant size being paraded around town.And, horror of horrors, this has been going on for a while, it seems.As well as the owners simply draping their scaly pets around their necks as they stroll around, councillors were told that last year there was an incident involving one of the snake- owners \u201cbrandishing\u201d the animal in the face of a passing woman as she emerged from the Bank of Montreal, scaring her half to death.Police were called in after that incident, but more tales abound of other serpentine appearances in places like the Post Office.What to do?It certainly isn\u2019t nice to scare people with a pet snake, however adorable you yourself may find it.There is some question of changing the municipal nuisance by-law to prevent further incidents.And nuisance is probably the best word.There\u2019s not much sense in flying off the handle and fear-mongering about possibly poisonous species, or giant constrictors of the nightmare kind.Despite attempts to regulate the sale of exotic snakes and other animals, the fact remains that some people do have pet snakes, and they can get pretty big.Their owners should certainly not be allowed to use them to terrorize their neighbors, whether the danger is real or perceived.The joke wouldn\u2019t be quite so funny if someone had a heart attack.(JT) Re GIL.EANER 5» BHGE [ 120 years ago | July, 1883 DOMINION DAY QUIET Dominion Day passed unobserved in this village.A large number went to the Durham picnic.At Howick, St Jude\u2019s Sunday School, Montreal, held a picnic.Fifteen crowded cars left the city and the passengers made their way, on arrival at Howick, to the Rev Mr McKeracher\u2019s grove, where they enjoyed themselves after their own fashion.The train was badly managed, and it was nearly midnight before the party got home.It was Howick\u2019s first experience of a city picnic, and its inhabitants learned that more ample provision is necessary.Another comes on Saturday, for which there will be better preparation.LAST CALL [ 80 years ago ] July 7, 1943 OLD MAIDS, BACHELORS Between 1931 and 1941 the number of divorced persons in Canada almost dou- bied.from 7.441 to 14.032.but alarmists may be al little comforted by the reflection that this increascd number constitutes only 0.1 percent of the population.According to the bureau (of Statistics).most of the gay divorcees lived in urban areas.Single persons, however still constituted 54.1 percent of Canada\u2019s 1941 population, with Quebec showing as the province most thickly populated with old maids and bachelors, having 60.3 percent of the population single in comparison to 35.7 married.NEW W.1.OFFICERS Mrs.W.C.Smallman, Ste.Agnes de Dundee, Que., was elected president of the Quebec Women\u2019s institutes at a two- [ 30 years ago ] July 4, 1973 MET THE QUEEN Arnold McNaughton of Hemmingford, author of the monumental \u201cBook of Kings\u201d, recently had a rare private audience with the Queen and Prince Phillip.It took place in the Royal York Hotel, Toronto, June 25.POOR SEASON (This and That in Town) Farmers concur that this season\u2019s hay crop is good, if it can be saved.Many fields are still too wet for machinery and this is posing a major problem.As Clifford Cameron of Lost Nation Rd., Huntingdon, told a Gleaner correspondent on Tuesday, \u201cNothing dries in this Notice is hereby given to those who have not paid up their school assessment tax and monthly fees, that unless the same is paid to the undersigned.on or before the 14th inst., they will have to pay the same with costs.as the teachers who have not been paid their salaries threaten to sue the board of School Commissioners.Those in default will be sued at the next Circuit Court.(Arthur Herdman, Secretary-Treasurer, Office of the School Commissioners, Hinchinbrook.)

It\u2019s a team effort, to say the least.So come on, men, step forward and join with other Madrigal members for good singing and lots of fun.Penny Anderson Howick Team of teens will tackle odd jobs There is an answer, only a phone all away, for all those little jobs around the house and yard which never seem to get done.That answer is a team of 15 local teenagers involved in the Coopérative jeunesse de services du Haut-St-Laurent.They are ready and waiting to baby-sit, paint, do garden chores, clean house, wash cars, help with moving, groom pets, mow the lawn, sit with elderly people or pick fruit and vegetables - or just about anything else you can think of.Users of the service pay according to the type of work; the boys and girls are aged anywhere between 13 and 17.and with the help of animators Maxime Beauchamp and Geneviève Crete.they run the project themselves in a democratic way, learning valuable skills of leadership, teamwork and organization as well as doing the actual work.Beauchamp, who worked with the CJS two years before becoming an animator, thinks it is a great experience, and his colleague agrees.\u201cThe teens are extremely motivated, and they're ready, willing an able to offer good service to people who need it,\u201d said Créte.This is the fifth year for the CJS program, which is sponsored by the Beauharnois-Huntingdon Carrefour de jeunesse-emploi.The project operates out of the Carrefour offices in Huntingdon, and is also aided financially by half a dozen sponsors.To learn more, or to arrange for .worker, call 264-5858 or E-mail cjs_hunt- ingdon@hotmail.com.The office, located at 64 Chateauguay St., is open weekdays from 9 a.m.to 4 p.m.(PL/IT) pr A A Eee [EE Judith Taylor Four-year-old David sports a grin a mile wide as he sits up as straight as he can during his first-ever riding lesson.Surrounded by a small group of encouraging women, including his mom, he does not use a saddle - the tiny boy is perched on a soft pad held in place by a girth and a set of hand grips, as his gentle chestnut mount is led sedately around the indoor ring.David\u2019s entourage is encouraging him to \u201csit tall\u201d and \u201clook up\u201d, pretty standard instructions for the beginner rider.But there is one big difference: David is learning to ride so that eventually, he may learn how to walk.The St-Constant pre-schooler has cerebral palsy and hydrocephaly, afflictions which have left him in a wheelchair, Lucky Harvest founder Patty McGill (left) an David for his first riding lesson.* Ë d other staffers prepare oo CBee a ROE T Four legs work better than two to improve co-ordination of children with disabilities with spastic muscles which prevent him from doing most of the things a four- year-old boy wants to do.But, thanks to the Lucky Harvest therapeutic riding program, David\u2019s uneducated nerves and muscles can start to feel, and learn from, the rhythmic movements of the horse\u2019s body beneath him, a kind of patterning which could help him walk on his own one day.At the very least, the riding will improve his balance and coordination, all in a way which is pleasurable and empowering at the same time.No lack of users David is just one of 40 children with various disabilities who are currently enrolled at Lucky Harvest, a 13-year-old non-profit centre located on three acres of donated land at Herdman.The young riders, from all over Southwestern Quebec, Eastern Ontario and the Montreal area, are often referred by their doctors or physiotherapists to the program, the only one of its kind in Quebec, and the only bilingual one in the country.Lucky Harvest owes its beginnings to Patty McGill, who took the instructor\u2019s training and set up the program, inspired by the needs of her own handicapped daughter.But over the years, volun- (Photo: JT) teers from the community have done amazing things to ensure its survival and encourage the growth of the internation- ally-recognized therapeutic riding movement in this area.Land has been donated, and a fine barn and indoor riding arena completed using volunteer labor and materials and expertise donated by various sponsors.Help from CLD Now, for the first time, regional government has got on board to help, with a $20,000 CLD Local Initiatives grant toward a new indoor viewing room, adapted toilet facilities, and office space.As well, the Haut-St-Laurent Local Development Centre has approved a five-year loan of another $20,000 to allow the hiring of three employees to help out, along with local volunteers.For McGill, this means she can concentrate on training instructors and working directly with the children, rather than having to be a year-round dogsbody, in charge of everything from fund-raising to publicity to (sometimes) mucking out stalls.At the same time, new blood on the board of directors and within the staff have given new life to Lucky Harvest and its goals.All this is not to say more help is not needed; CLD spokesman Stéphane Billette stresses that it is a wonderful project for any community groups or individuals looking for a worthwhile cause to support.Money, materials, time, even hay for the horses - all are more than welcome at Lucky Harvest as it endeavors to assure itself a permanent place on the list of good works going on in the Valley.Ten teens agers get Youth Recognition Awards presented at GVESPA'S annual general meeting Judith Taylor Ten young people from southwestern Quebec, including six from the Valley, were cited during the annual meeting of the Chateauguay Valley English-Speaking People\u2019s Association, held June 7 in Huntingdon.At the meeting, president Neil Burdon told members, directors and visitors that CVESPA is continuing its self-examination process as it seeks a new name and a new role in the community.He pointed to last year\u2019s successful CD recording of local musicians, and to CVESPA's sponsorship of the Rural Theatre project as examples of the new direction the organization is taking.As well, the English-rights group rents out space in its Route 138 building to two other groups, the Chateauguay Valley Historical Society and the local chapter of the Masonic Lodge.Change of focus \u201cHistorically, our association has been an active forerunner in the issue of protesting language legislation, but that focus has diminished over the past few years,\u201d he stressed.Burdon added that CVESPA is still engaged in helping individuals who have problems getting services in English.\u201cWe have played the role of ombudsman and resolve issues through positive dialogue.\u201d he said.The recipients of the annual CVESPA Youth Recognition Awards arc nominated by schools, churches and community groups.This year\u2019s winners included seven CVR students, from the Howick, Ormstown and Huntingdon areas, as well as three nominees from Chateauguay and one from Hudson.Award winners Winners are (in alphabetical order): Christopher Craig, 17, of Riverfield, wrote Spartan Talk, the CVR sports col- Shelley McClintock Christopher Craig umn which appeared weekly in The Gleaner this year.Chris is himself an enthusiastic athlete, but he has also been active in yearbook, student council, student union and Talent Fest and has played an important leadership role at school and in his community.Scouting groups, 4-H, and community sports are among his activities.Chris intends to study Physical Education at Champlain College next year.Shelley McClintock @texteregulier:of Ormstown was this year\u2019s Valedictorian at the CVR Graduation ceremonies, where she has been an Honors student and co- president of the Student Union.She works with junior curlers and teaches tap dancing.During the summer, she teaches swimming.A members of the CVR girls-student group \u201cThe Edge\u201d.she helped fund-raise for their European trip, and has performed in the school Talent Fest, as well as tutoring other students.Jennifer Reddick, another CVR student, has a strong interest in theatre, having acted as stage manager for the school production of \u201cFiddler on the Roof\u201d.She is currently involved in theatrical design, acting and stage-managing with a children\u2019s theatre group, and also worked on organizing this year\u2019s Open House at the high school.Her sports interests include rugby, field hockey and softball and she also cuts lawns for her church and handles Jennifer Reddick Erin Scoble Marcie Tolhurst her share of farm chores.Erica Rennie, of Huntingdon was the run-away academic star at this year\u2019s CVR prize-giving, as well as being recognized for her contribution to school life and spirit.She also served as co-president of the Student Union.worked on the yearbook and helped tutor other students after school.She is active in church affairs, plays the organ at Huntingdon United Church and helps with Sunday School and the locai Vacation Bible School.Eric Scoble, 17.was nominated by the Aubrey-Riverfield Women's Institute.In that community, she has been teaching Sunday School and had been an active member of the local 4-H club\u2019s handicraft, garden, square dance and calf club activi- [ S08 CVESPA paye 8 ] The Slsanar » daly 8, 2603 2 5 .pe se _ LE a > 3 - roel Ps a Sn oe a ~~ Aen i : ;

rouli-roulant de Huntingdon, qui sont privés d\u2019un skate- parc depuis maintenant deux ans, auront accès à un nouveau site pour qu\u2019ils puissent venir pratiquer leur loisir préféré en toute sécurité.Le parc Prince-Arthur, situé à proximité du Château de Huntingdon, deviendra le grand lieu de rendez-vous des jeunes planchistes désireux d\u2019étayer leurs prouesses en toute quiétude, sans crainte d\u2019être importunés ou d\u2019être chassés des endroits en ville où ils se produisent habituellement.L'Association des parcs de Huntingdon, un groupe formé en tout début d\u2019année pour promouvoir l\u2019implantation d'un skate-parc dans la localité, a dévoilé jeudi soir dernier les grandes lignes de son projet d'implantation d\u2019un nouvel emplacement pour la pratique du rouli-roulant, à quelques pas du centre- ville.Après plusieurs mois de démarches intenses, l\u2019Association a finalement jeté son dévolu sur le parc Prince-Arthur pour l\u2019aménagement de ce nouveau skate- parc, répondant au v;u de nombreux jeunes qui veulent s'amuser avec leurs planches à roulettes ailleurs que sur les terrains de stationnement des édifices publics et dans les rues de la municipalité.Selon l'organisme, le site a l'avantage d\u2019être tout à fait sécuritaire et bien visible de la Sûreté du Québec quand vient l'heure de faire des patrouilles.Situé au centre de la ville, il se trouve dans un espace vert qui a l'habitude de voir défiler beaucoup de jeunes en tout temps, particulièrement pendant la saison estivale.«Ce que nous voulons avec ce nouveau skate-parc, c'est sortir de là les jeunes qui ont l'habitude d\u2019aller au Château ou dans le stationnement de l'ancien Métro pour faire du «skate» pour les réunir à un même endroit», estime le président de l'Association des parcs de Huntingdon.Paul-Emile Trépanier.Le futur skate-parc, auquel les jeunes ont pris une part active à la confection et dont les plans ont été approuvés par la Ville, comptera au total dix-huit modules en bois pouvant être assemblés puis démontés.Une clôture de six pieds de hauteur ceinturera les installations qui seront insonorisées pour réduire l\u2019impact sonore causé par le va-et-vient des planches à roulettes.La construction du site doit s\u2019amorcer dans la dernière semaine de juillet av3ec les opérations d\u2019excavation, précise l'Association qui estime qu\u2019une partie de la structure sera prête vers le deuxième week-end d\u2019août.L'échéancier s\u2019avère Fermé jeudi le 10 juillet, 17h Ouvert vendredi 25 juillet, 9h Pas de parution les 16 et 23 juillet ws QURCH, > D Ra a Yl one court mais M.Trépanier considère que le lieu pourra tout de même être utilisable cette amnée.Même s\u2019il accueillera le nouveau skate-parc, il est hors de question de modifier l\u2019allure même ou le cachet du parc Prince-Arthur.«Le parc conservera son intégralité.On ne détruira rien de la verdure qui la compose.Il n\u2019est pas question de couper des arbres pour faciliter la création du skate-parc», promet M.Trépanier.Le nouvel aire de rouli-roulant fera l\u2019objet d\u2019une surveillance de tous les instants et les jeunes planchistes se soumettront à des règles bien précises.À 22h, les lumières du parc Prince-Arthur s\u2019éteindront, indiquant aux utilisateurs qu\u2019ils devront quitter l\u2019emplacement.Les bicyclettes de type BMX ne seront pas admis sur le site, pour des raisons sécuritaires.Il en coûtera environ 35 000$ pour ériger le nouveau skate-parc.Pour financer la construction, l\u2019Association des parcs de Huntingdon croit que les entreprises et les marchands de la localité et des municipalités avoisinantes qui seront sollicités verseront respectivement 15 000$ et 20 000$.A ce jour, quelque 5 000$ ont été amassés de la part des commerçants invités à contribuer à la construction du site.Les caisses populaires Desjardins vont injecter 1 000$.La Ville de Huntingdon pourrait aussi être appelée à faire sa part, bien qu'aucune municipalité ne s\u2019est engagée financièrement à ce projet.«Aussitôt la confirmation qu\u2019une première tranche de 15 000$ est versée, les premiers travaux commencent», assure M.Trépanier qui ajoute qu'une levée de fonds sera mise sur pied prochainement.Cages 1,080 2e.Le parc Prince-Arthur, situé à proximité du Château de Huntingdon, deviendra le grand lieu de rendez-vous des jeunes

s\u2019être doté d\u2019un grand manège intérieur permettant de poursuivre ses randonnées d\u2019équitation à des fins thérapeutiques douze mois par années, le Projet Récolte Chanceuse dispose maintenant d\u2019une aire de repos pour les parents des enfants qui suivent leurs leçons d\u2019équithérapie et de nouvelles toilettes à l\u2019intention de la clientèle et du personnel.Les principaux dirigeants et des employés bénévoles du centre d\u2019équitation thérapeutique ont tenu une conférence de presse jeudi dernier afin de présenter ces nouvelles infrastructures.Des représentants du centre local de développement du Haut Saint-Laurent, dont le directeur général Stéphane Billette, étaient présents pour annoncer l\u2019engagement financier de l\u2019organisme dans la construction de ces aménagements qui viennent de s\u2019ajouter aux autres installations du site basé à Herdman.Lajout de ces améliorations physiques a été rendu possible grâce à une importante aide financière du CLD.Le Projet Récolte Chanceuse a obtenu une subvention de 20 000$ du fonds de développement des entreprises d\u2019économie sociale du CLD du Haut Saint- Laurent ainsi qu\u2019un prêt de 20 000$ échelonné sur cinq ans de la part du fonds local d\u2019investissement du même organ- Projet Récolte Chanceuse prévoit aussi implanté un espace administratif permanent.«Ainsi, les dossiers médicaux et les équipements seront, pour une première fois en treize ans, réunis dans un même endroit.Par ce changement, la durée de vie des équipements sera prolongée puisque la présence de la poussière sera moindre», souligne Mme McGill.La subvention de 20 000$ consentie par le CLD via son fonds de développement des entreprises d\u2019économie sociale est la première provenant de fonds publics remis au Projet Récolte Chanceuse.Quant au prêt, il permettra l'embauche de trois employés permanents en plus d\u2019apporter au site une certaine sécurité financière.De 1995 à ce jour, le Projet Récolte Chanceuse n\u2019à pas cessé d\u2019introduire des améliorations physiques à son site de Herdman.Sur sa propriété de trois acres, le centre dispose d\u2019un grand manège intérieur érigé en 2001 et d\u2019un écurie construit l\u2019année précédente.Un manège extérieur, une caravane de 27 pieds pour les bénévoles et un chalet pour les équipements se trouve au nombre des installations du site.Constitué en 1991, Lucky Harvest est le premier centre d\u2019équithérapie à être instauré au Canada.Il est le seul au Québec à se consacrer à temps complet à la réhabilitation

la facture totale pour les travaux est assuré par l'octroi de ce prêt du FLI», précise la coordonnatrice du site, Patricia McGill.Avec cet apport financier du CLD et de différents partenaires privés, les bénévoles et les jeunes handicapées sont en mesure d\u2019utiliser des toilettes intérieurs, comparativement à l'an dernier où ils devaient employés celles se trouvant dehors, même dans des températures pas toujours confortables.Quant au nouvel aire de repos, il permettra aux parents d\u2019observer attentivement leurs enfants pendant leurs séances d\u2019équithérapie.Les travaux de rénovation du site comporteront une seconde phase.Le (photo J.T) Association et la Fédération québécoise d\u2019équitation thérapeutique.C\u2019est à ce centre que les nouveaux instructeurs sont entraînés et évalués.Les enfants handicapés sont référés au Projet Lucky Harvest par des médecins de l'hôpital Sainte-Justine et du Montreal Children\u2019s Hospital.La plupart des jeunes et leurs parents viennent de Montréal une fois par semaine sur le site afin d\u2019effectuer leurs séances d\u2019équitation thérapeutique.Le centre donne 40 traitements spéciaux par semaine a différents enfants.Les enfants travaillent en privé ou en semi-privé.Un coût minimal est demandé aux parents et le reste est assuré par des levées de fonds», indique Mme McGill. 14 » 9 juillet 2003 » La Source Élections du 2 novembre prochain RTE EN) Howard Welburn se lance a son tour dans l'arène politique municipale | Patrice Laflamme Un commerçant de Huntingdon se lance lui aussi dans l\u2019arène politique locale.Howard Welburn a décidé de se présenter comme candidat au siège numéro 5 du conseil de ville lors des élections municipales du 2 novembre prochain.Propriétaire d\u2019une station-service sur la rue Châteauguay depuis dix-sept ans, M.Welburn tentera d\u2019occuper le fauteuil d\u2019échevin laissé vacant depuis la démission de Jean-Paul Mainville en décembre dernier.Mais par-dessus tout, il veut tenter d'introduire un peu de sang neuf au sein du conseil municipal.À l'instar d\u2019un autre candidat à l\u2019échevinage, Serge Poirier, M.Welburn s\u2019est laissé tenté par la politique municipale parce qu\u2019il souscrit entièrement aux idées et aux orientations de l\u2019un des deux aspirants à la mairie, Me Gendron, qui veut amener un vent de renouveau à l\u2019intérieur même de la ville.Je suis en accord avec M.Gendron quant à ce qu'il propose pour améliorer la situation de la municipalité», a confié au Gleaner/La Source le garagiste âgé de 54 ans.Même s'il épouse les mêmes convictions que Me Gendron quant a l'avenir de Huntingdon, M.Welburn, tout comme M.Poirier, ne compte pas faire équipe avec lui.«Je ne suis pas prét de dire toutefois que je m\u2019embarque avec lui», prend-il soin de souligner.A titre de marchand, M.Welburn observe attentivement ce qui se passe présentement dans le secteur commercial à Huntingdon et considère qu\u2019un profond malaise s\u2019est installé entre les élus et les propriétaires d\u2019établissements.«Je ne suis pas content du traitement que fait la Ville aux marchands présentement, que ceux-ci ne se sentent plus respectés de la part des élus.Sans les commerçants, c\u2019est tout Huntingdon qui sera condamnée à mourir», dit-il.M.Welburn a Les vols de drapeaux refont surface.trente ans plus tard CER Elid En 1973, un individu, véritable maniaque de drapeaux, se baladait dans les rues de Huntingdon durant la nuit pour les dérober.Trente ans plus tard, le même scénario semble se répéter.Ces dernières semaines, des nombreux drapeaux ont été volés dans des propriétés et des établissements de la municipalité.Des commerces et des institutions ont reçu la visite de ce voleur de drapeau.De ce nombre, il y a une station-service de la rue Châteauguay, l'hôtel-de-ville de Huntingdon et le cimetière protestant.Un résident de la rue Henderson a lui-même goûté à la médecine de ce malfaiteur à au moins huit reprises au cours de la dernière année.Il semble que le malfaiteur agit généralement le vendredi et le samedi durant la nuit, vers trois ou quatre heures du matin, après la fermeture des bars.Les citoyens qui aperçoivent ce voleur chez eux doivent savoir qu\u2019il est dans leur droit, conféré par une disposition spécifique du code criminel canadien, de recourir à la force nécéssaire ou raisonnable pour le maîtriser.Ils peuvent aussi le mettre en état d\u2019arrestation puis de rejoindre le détachement du Haut Saint-Laurent de la Sûreté du Québec qui pourra ainsi venir le cueillir sur place.Il est également possible de le prendre en photo ou de le filmer et le remettre le matériel aux agents de la paix en guise d\u2019élément de preuve.M.NETTOYEUR

l\u2019occasion était belle d\u2019aller défendre les intérêts des marchands.» Natif de Huntingdon et possédant une demeure dans cette localité depuis 35 ans, M.Welburn connaît la ville comme le fond de sa poche et croit être en mesure de jouer un rôle de premier plan pour faire en sorte que son patelin fasse de nouveau la fierté de ses citoyens.«J\u2019ai envie de représenter les citoyens au sein du conseil et je veux m\u2019efforcer de redonner aux gens le goût de vivre dans la communauté», précise-t-il.Howard Welburn a décidé de se présenter comme candidat au siège numéro 5 du conseil de

Saint-Anicet ont forcé l\u2019arrêt du fonctionnement d\u2019une petite pompe submersible aménagée depuis deux semaines pour écouler les eaux de la rivière La Guerre vers le lac Saint-François.A la suite d\u2019une requête expresse déposée par des membres de l\u2019Association pour la sauvegarde du lac Saint-François, il a été convenu de mettre un terme à la mise en marche de l\u2019appareil, en opération constante depuis le 23 juin dernier.L'organisme avait convenu que l\u2019emploi d\u2019une pompe de 75 chevaux vapeurs s\u2019avérerait plus acceptable aux yeux des citoyens riverains.Le comité de gestion de la station de pompage de Saint-Anicet a convoqué la semaine dernière, à la demande même de la municipalité, une rencontre afin de se pencher sur les multiples récriminations occasionnées par l\u2019installation de cette petite pompe de huit pouces de diamètre d\u2019une capacité de 80 litres à la minute.\u2018\u2019Il avait été entendu que s\u2019il y avait des plaintes, ce système serait abandonné.Après dix jours à peine de fonctionnement, du 23 juin au 4 juillet, les plaintes sont devenues intenses.Il a donc été convenu d\u2019arrêter immédiatement l\u2019opération

interrogations concernant l\u2019arrêt de fonctionnement de la petite pompe.\u2018\u2019Il y en a qui ont soulevé plusieurs questionnements vis à vis cette décision.Des gens ont évoqué le peu de temps accordé pour l\u2019essai, qu\u2019il y avait moins de sédiments pompés par la très petite pompe, une meilleur «santé» de la rivière puisqu\u2019il y a un petit courrant, et qu\u2019il n\u2019y avait pas d\u2019accumulation de débris devant la station de pompage.Mais puisque c\u2019est la demande expresse des membres de l\u2019association de la sauvegarde du lac, nous avons convenu de répondre favorablement à leur souhait.Il y aura dorénavant le départ d\u2019une pompe de 75HP durant la nuit, pour environ 10 heures par semaine, si les précipitations de pluie ne cause pas d\u2019inondation»,

l\u2019attribution par le ministre canadien du Développement des ressources humaines, Jane Stewart, d\u2019une somme de 124 326$ à l\u2019organisme.Ce montant versé était prévu dans le budget fédéral déposé en février dernier.Le dévoilement de cet octroi s\u2019est déroulée en présence de représentants du Cercle de loisirs de Cazaville, de la municipalité de Saint-Anicet et de Développement des ressources Canada.Le versement de ce montant permettra au Cercle des loisirs de Cazaville de réaliser un projet communautaire dans le cadre de la stratégie Emploi Jeunesse du gouvernement canadien.Cette initiative consiste à développer des services afin de rendre une collectivité locale plus propice à l\u2019épanouissement de ses jeunes.Avec cette aide financière, dix jeunes âgés de moins de trente ans vont acquérir une expérience de travail sur le site des loisirs de Cazaville.Et ce n\u2019est pas le boulot qui va manquer.Ils auront à restaurer le terrain de balle molle et en feront le nettoyage, le répareront et en peindront les clôtures et les estrades.Les bandes entourant la patinoire seront aussi rénovés.Tout au long du programme, les participants vont pouvoir suivre des ateliers portant notamment sur la gestion des émotions, la connaissance de soi, les attitudes et la communication.\u201cGrace a cette initiative, dix jeunes de la collectivité développeront des aptitudes et des compétences qui favoriseront leur intégration professionnelle, a déclaré Monsieur Marcil.Ces jeunes retireront de nombreux effets positifs de cette expérience pour bien longtemps.C\u2019est pourquoi le gouvernement du Canada est fier d\u2019en permettre la réalisation», a déclaré M.Marcil.Ce projet appuie la stratégie Emploi Jeunesse du gouvernement du Canada qui aide les jeunes à faire la transition de l\u2019école au travail et à trouver leur premier emploi, avec la collaboration d\u2019entreprises, d\u2019organismes non gouvernementaux, de communautés et d\u2019autres paliers gouvernementaux.Le programme s\u2019attaque aux problèmes liés à l\u2019emploi des jeunes par une approche trois volets.Il fournit d\u2019une part aux étudiants et aux jeunes sous- employés ou sans emploi des possibilités d\u2019acquérir de l\u2019expérience professionnelle.D'autre part, elle fournit de l\u2019information pertinente sur le marché du travail aux
