14 Wing Chapels Christmas Schedule

By: 14 Wing Chaplains’ teamLa parabole sapin et du

pommier ! Un jour d’automne, un pommier, mécontent

de son sort, confi a sa déception au pomiculteur. La nature avait été injuste envers lui en lui donnant une apparence toute difforme, alors que le magnifi que sapin qui s’élançait à ses côtés faisait l’envie de tous les hommes qui, d’années en années, ne cessaient de le décorer de magnifi ques étoiles illuminées.

Le pomiculteur repris alors: «Tu es difformes, c’est vrai. Mais souviens-toi que tu es un arbre greffé dès ton jeune âge et que tu rappelles à l’homme qu’il est lui aussi un peuple déformé par ses fautes et ses faiblesses, mais capable aussi de donner de bons fruits. Tu es émondé, c’est vrai aussi, mais c’est pour que tes fruits n’en soient que plus magnifi ques.

Et, parlant de ses fruits, le vieux pomiculteur tira une belle pomme du pommier, sortit son couteau et, d’un trait horizontal, la coupa en deux parties égales. Il montra les deux moitiés au pommier et pointant avec son couteau l’étoile formée au milieu par les pépins, il lui dit: «Tu vois, mon vieux, le sapin a les étoiles qu’on lui ajoute, mais toi c’est au milieu de toi que tu as tes étoiles. C’est dans ton coeur même qu’est ta beauté!”

Auteur inconnu À vous tous et toutes, que votre beauté

intérieure illumine ce Noël! Heureux temps des Fêtes et que toutes les lumières qui scintillent autour de nous nous rappellent cette lumière intérieure!

L’équipe des aumôniers 14 Ere Greenwood

The Parable of the Apple tree and the Christmas tree

One day in autumn, a very unhappy apple tree talked to the apple farmer about the way things were for him. He was very sad. His purpose in life was not joyful and his shape as an apple tree was disappointing. He compared himself to the beautiful fir tree. The fir tree was so beautiful. Everyone was envious of the fi r tree. Every year the beautiful fi r tree was decorated with many bright and colorful stars.

The apple farmer answered him: ‘Your shape is not the same, that is true. But remember that you are a tree who was grafted when you were very young and you remind everyone that they are also a people deformed by the i r mi s t akes and weaknesses, but still able to produce good fruits. You are pruned, that’s true, but it is to make your fruits magnifi cent.

And, as he was speaking about his fruits, the old apple farmer picked an apple in the tree, took his knife and, with a smooth movement, cut it in two equal parts. He showed the two halves to the Apple tree, he pointed with his knife to the star formed by its seeds in the centre, and said to him: ‘’you see, my old friend, the fir may have stars that are added on, but you, it is at your core that you have stars. It is in your heart where your beauty lies!”

To all of you, may your beauty shine this Christmas - the beauty that is within you. Merry Christmas and may the lights shining on your Christmas tree remind you of the light that shines within you.

What a weekend we had! 16 of the fi nest ladies curling teams in Nova Scotia gathered at the Greenwood Curling Club on the weekend of the December 10 – 12 to compete in the Scotties Qualifi er #1. The prize for 6 teams was a spot in the Nova Scotia Scotties Tournament of Hearts. This tournament

will be held in Kentville at the Glooscap Curling Club the week of January 25 – 30, 2011. The curlers and fans were disappointed that Colleen Jones was unable to attend due to illness. We wish all the best to Colleen in her recovery. However, all weekend long fans were treated to some fantastic curling. These ladies have

incredible skill.Special guests at the opening

of the bonspiel included Wing Administration Offi cer, LCol Pamela Smith McBride, who came to welcome the curlers and said she hopes that the community project between Greenwood, Kingston, and 14 Wing of a new arena and curling complex would be completed by 2014. LCol

Smith McBride invi ted everyone to come back to enjoy the new facilities once they are open. Kings County Warden, Diana Brothers, welcomed the curlers to Kings County. She invited letters of support from the curlers regarding the new arena complex.

C o n g r a t u l a t i o n s t o teams Arsenault, Richard,

MacKenzie, Smith-Dacey, Hilliard, and Mattatall. These 6 teams are the winning teams from the Qualifiers #1 that will be advancing to the provincial Scotties Tournament of Hearts.

To t h e o r g a n i z i n g committee, Thank You, you did a fabulous job keeping everything running smoothly and making our guests feel

welcome. Thanks to the ice staff for giving our curlers a fantas t ic ice sur face to compete on. You rock! January 21 – 23, 2011 the Greenwood Curling Club will be hosting the Men’s Challenge Round. This is the second opportunity for curlers to advance to the provincial men’s championship. We hope to see you there!

Women’s Scotties Qualifi er #1Cover story.

Submitted by Brenda Virtue-Ellis, Childcare Programs Director

After much anticipation, the GMFRC Full Day Casual Childcare Centre is offi cially open. The last of the inspections are complete and we are now open to clients. We would like to thank everyone who had a hand in making this venture a reality; this has been a joint effort which could not have happened without the full support of the Wing.

Our Casual Childcare Program has undergone a transformation from a licensed part day program to a licensed Full Day Casual Childcare Centre. The Childcare Centre has a licensed capacity of 25 spaces for children aged 3 months to 12 years. There is now an infant program for children aged 3 to 17 months and a multi-aged program for children 18 months to 12 years of age. These programs are divided to provide developmentally age appropriate programming. Our programming is designed to foster growth in all areas of development; social-emotional, cognitive, as well as fi ne and gross motor skills. The infant and multi-aged program plans are posted so that parents can see what their child will be learning while in care.

The aim of our Full Day Casual Childcare Service is to provide casual, affordable, fl exible, and inclusive quality care to military families; to provide a service to parents so they may run errands, attend appointments, participate in community activities, or enjoy some free time; accommodate the GMFRC’s Emergency Childcare Service; and to support volunteers of the GMFRC. The centre provides a safe and

happy atmosphere for children to learn and play.The Childcare Centre is open Monday to Friday, from 8:00

a.m. to 4:00 p.m. We provide daily nutritious snacks as well as a hot lunch. Our menu has been created in consultation with a Public Health Nutritionist.

Parents are encouraged to pre-book spaces a minimum of 24 hours in advance. We will accept bookings one month at a time, but please remember that this service is casual and should not replace your full-time childcare arrangements. This is a very popular service and is booked on a fi rst come, fi rst served basis.

We look forward to sharing this wonderful new Childcare Centre with our 14 Wing community! Please come by and take a peek.

To book a space please call 765-1494; Infant Room is local 1818 and the Multi-Aged Room is local 1817.

For general inquires about the program contact Brenda Virtue-Ellis, Childcare Programs Director at 765-1494 local 5053.

2010 marks t he 10 th anniversary of the Greenwood Military Family Resource Centre’s (GMFRC) Adopt the Troops Campaign. Each year the GMFRC enlists the help of local schools to create Christmas letters and cards

which are sent to 14 Wing Greenwood personnel who will be deployed over the Christmas holidays. This year, hundreds of beautiful crafts and pieces of artwork were created especially for our deployed troops.

The following elementary schools par t ic ipated in t h e A d o p t t h e Tr o o p s Campaign: Cambr idge , Champlain in Granville F e r r y, L a w r e n c e t o w n , Annapolis West, Dwight Ross, Kingston, St Mary’s in Aylesford, Somerset, Kings County Academy, Berwick, École Rose des Vents, and

Aldershot. Students from t h e s e s c h o o l s c r e a t e d wonderful shows of support for our troops. The time, effort, and thoughtfulness that was put into the creative

Adopt the Troops: The Schools are In!

works from the schools was amazing. The beautiful pencil drawings, large class banners, colourful Christmas cards, ornaments, and heartfelt letters are sure to bring a tear

to the eye of a soldier who is far from home during the holidays.

T h i s y e a r , w e w e r e fortunate to be able to talk to some of the students at Dwight Ross Elementary, Kingston Elementary, and St Mary’s Elementary. With the assistance of Major Russ Defer, MWO Peggy O’Neil, and CWO Denis Gaudreault, the children were able to better understand just how important the Adopt the Troops campaign is; how much their hard work is appreciated by the soldiers who receive it; and what it is like to be deployed. Being able to look at the students’

artwork and see the support and love that they convey can help a soldier overcome a bad day. The students work helps to remind the soldier of home, how lucky children are in our country, and how much children in other countries need the help of the Canadian Forces. The program also provides a learning opportunity for the children, about other countries, about the Canadian Forces, and about the life of a deployed soldier.

Thank you to Major Defer, MWO O’Neil, and CWO Gaudreault for meeting with the students regarding our Adopt the Troops program, thank you to the schools who opened their doors for our presentation, and a special thank you to all the students who took time to send a Christmas message to each and every member deployed from 14 Wing. Their efforts are certain to bring a smile to 14 Wing deployed members scattered all over the world this holiday season! Merry Christmas!

The Commanding Offi cer (CO) of 14 Air Maintenance Squadron (AMS) presented the Commanding Offi cer’s Commendation to the Avionics Labs Commemoration Team for their dedication and leadership in the organization of a commemorative event to recognize the closure of the Avionics Labs. Their commitment, perseverance, and fl exibility resulted in a superbly executed function. By providing a fi tting tribute to an organization which was an essential part of the Maritime Patrol community for over 50 years, the Avionics Labs Commemoration Team truly exemplifi ed our Squadron motto of “Dedicated-Driven-Ready”. From L to R: Captain Natalie Wispinski, Lieutenant Colin Harrison, Lieutenant-Colonel Thomas Flynn, CO of 14 AMS, Second Lieutenant Tyrel Waldner, Chief Warrant Offi cer Gary Pitman, 14 AMS CWO, Sergeant Joanne Lewis and Corporal Karen Karasz.

Colonel William Seymour presented Second Lieutenant (2Lt) Tyrel Waldner with the Wing commander’s Commendation for 2Lt Waldner’s outstanding commitment and contribution to the success of 14 Wing’s 2010 Terry Fox Fund-Raising Campaign. 2Lt Waldner worked tirelessly as the 14 AMS Fund-Raising OPI, diligently organizing and coordinating multiple activities, both within 14 AMS and at the Wing level. The incomparable results of numerous successful events; such as, the 14 AMS Head Shave and the Charity Poker Night raised over $4,100. Without 2Lt Waldner’s tireless efforts, the 14 AMS Fund-Raising Campaign could not have achieved the success that it did. 2Lt Waldner’s unwavering dedication, remarkable drive and exceptional results make him highly deserving of the Wing Commander’s Commendation.

By: Captain Jeff Hallam2010 was an extremely

productive year for 404 Squadron (Sqn). To accomplish our top priority of generating capable air and ground crew for the Aurora fl eet, we have implemented some progressive solutions to ensure that we meet the training requirements of the Long Range Patrol (LRP) community.

In addition to a demanding residential program, 404 Sqn has continued its evolution of training delivery to include more Distance Learning (DL) content than ever before. DL provides fl exibility for students who

are able to stay at home with their families while preparing for a residence portion of their course. This acts as a multiplier for the staff as they are able to conduct training in-house and by DL simultaneously, thereby increasing overall throughput.

The Maintenance Training Flight (MTF) generated a total of 95 Aviation Technicians, 120 Avionic Technicians, and 24 Maintenance Managers this year. MTF changed the way its training was delivered with the adoption of DL. The Corrosion Control and the Maintenance Managers Courses were the fi rst to undergo this transformation.

Both courses were delivered using this new format, with great success. A new addition to MTF, the Apprentice Training section, has provided a single training continuum from the Apprentice through Journeyman phases, and increased the squadron’s overall throughput. They qualifi ed a total of 40 apprentices on CP140/A Arcturus servicing and elementary tasks this year. This benefi t combined with improved practical training and Blended Learning initiatives promises to improve the training experience and quantity of future CP140 Aurora technicians.

The Squadron was able to graduate 40 Aircrew in 2010 and will be able to provide an additional 21 bodies early in 2011 upon completion of the current course’s fl ying and simulator phases. The pilot section produced seven new pilots to the LRP community and six students are currently on course. There are six new Flight Engineers (FE) in the LRP community this year and fi ve of them will experience the Aurora as their fi rst CF aircraft, indicative of the trade’s progression to meet the needs of the new CF. The Tactical Navigator (TN) section graduated three qualifi ed

A Full Year at 404 (LRP&T) Squadron

TNs, with two more in-house. TN graduates were able to shorten their time in-house by making use of the DL content and this encouraging trend is likely to continue. The Navigator-Communicator (NC) section instructors successfully met evolving demands to produce capable aircrew and subsequently graduated nine NCs, with another four currently in their fl ying phase. There are another seven Airborne Electronic Sensor Operator (AESOp) crew working at the Operational squadrons and another seven will soon be ready to meet the challenges presented to them at their home units.

Striving to provide the best possible training, the AESOp staff have recently added Overland Equipment Mission Suite (OEMS) training to the MOAT curriculum. Last but not least, the Acoustic Sensor Offi cers (ASO) at 404 Sqn qualifi ed a total of eight graduates, fi ve of which were new to LRP. With another two students in house, the staff are continuing to transition and improve our ASW capability to ensure that this critical capability is maintained.

On behalf of the Herd, we would like to wish everyone a safe and peaceful holiday season!

What’s going on at the museum?

It’s a very exciting time at the Greenwood Military Aviation Museum. On the restoration side of operations there are several projects picking up steam under the power of some fantastic and dedicated volunteers including a Sperwer UAV that served in Afghanistan, a DC-3 Dakota, and a Bristol Bolingbroke. The Argus restoration project was unfortunately delayed by weather issues despite the best efforts of the excellent 14 Wing ACS crew. However, it is scheduled to be completed as soon as the weather warms up in the spring. The recently restored Labrador

Helicopter is also scheduled to be moved into the Air Park in the spring.

In August Major Robert Johnson became the General Manager of the museum and Wing Heritage Offi cer. His passion for the preservation of Greenwood’s aviation heritage is clearly demonstrated by the improvements he has made within the museum operations, as well as the ones he is working towards in the near future. On top of all the aircraft projects, there have been numerous aesthetic improvements completed.

As always, the museum is looking for volunteers. Front desk staff are especially in need, but all skills are an asset.

Application forms can be picked up at the front desk.

All museum projects carry a rather hefty price tag. If you would like to contribute to keeping history alive in Greenwood donations are greatly

appreciated. All donations over $150.00 receive a free LED 14 Wing fl ashlight.

The museum is open from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. Tuesday to Saturday. The front desk can be reached at (902) 765-1494 ext. 5955.

The staff at the Greenwood A n i m a l H o s p i t a l a n d Middleton Vet Services would like to thank all of the people who came out to the clinic on Saturday, December 4th, with their furry friends to get their photo taken with the Grinch! By the end of the day we were able to raise $600 including numerous donations for the Companion Animal Protection Society, which will help vaccinate, spay, neuter and aid in the cost of food, bedding and litter.

With approximately 80

The Grinchs’ Heart Grew Five Sizes that Day

dogs and several quite brave cats, the Greenwood Animal Hospital was a VERY busy place to be. With ultrasound demonstrations taking place, children viewing sl ides on the microscope, to the refreshment stand, where everyone was able to sit back, relax and enjoy tea, coffee and doughnuts while waiting for their turn with the Grinch. Our day was very successful.

This was our 6th year taking holiday pet photos and by far the best outcome! The Grinch had, among others, Leonbergers, Dachshunds, Collies, Miniature Pinschers, Chihuahuas, Siamese, Saint Bernards and beautiful mixed

breed dogs and cats sitting on his lap (sometimes more than one at a time!). It was a sight to see! Thank you once again to everyone who joined us for our 2010 Christmas Photo Fundraiser, we hope to see you all next year!

Everyone at Greenwood A n i m a l H o s p i t a l a n d Middleton Vets would like to extend Best Wishes for a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all the hard working volunteers at C.A.P.S. and to all their foster pets looking for homes this holiday season.

If you are interested in adopting, please contact C.A.P.S. at 825-2277 (825-CAPS)

Somewhere beneath the glimmer that comes

this time of winter

In many souls there is a cry. If you’ve lost your way, and can’t feel the

magic in the air, join us at the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints for a musical

presentation that will be sure to lift your spirit. Help us celebrate the true reason for the season on

Christmas Eve, December 24th, from 4:30pm - 6:30pm,

free admission, at 10588 Ward Rd, Greenwood.

On Friday, December 10, 2010, the Sobeys grocery store in Greenwood hosted a shopping spree for the Village of Kingston’s Food Bank and invited local MLA for Kings

Sobeys Shopping Spree for Local Food Bank

West, Leo Glavine and 14 Wing Representative Lieutenant Colonel Pamela Smith McBride to participate. Together they had about 103 seconds to gather as much food as they could

and when the dust settled they managed to pick up $1,397.46 worth of food that fi lled at least eight shopping carts!

Thank you to Store Manager Eric Pothier and Staff Organizer Kathleen Boates who were instrumental in bringing these two power shoppers in line for this wonderful fundraiser.

ARIES - Mar 21/Apr 20Take a moment to breathe, Aries. All of this running around has left you more frazzled than ever before. Relationships may suffer if you don’t slow down.TAURUS - Apr 21/May 21Taurus, family matters must take precedence over personal issues this week. A close friend arrives to pitch in and help smooth things over.GEMINI - May 22/Jun 21Gemini, romantic endeavors take a back seat to other pressing issues. Don’t worry, there will be time to spend with a special someone in a few days. Until then, get other work done. CANCER - Jun 22/Jul 22Cancer, consider an alternate way of doing things this week. It’s fi ne to go against the grain once in a while. But others won’t want you to make it a habit.LEO - Jul 23/Aug 23Leo, you may be passed over for a promotion but don’t let it get you upset. Your time will come in the near future. Simply be patient and you will be rewarded.VIRGO - Aug 24/Sept 22Bide your time, Virgo. The best things come to those who wait, and you’re about to reap the rewards of your patience in the next few days.LIBRA - Sept 23/Oct 23Libra, someone you’ve counted on in the past proves unpredictable this week. Rather than dwell on what cannot be changed, fi nd someone responsible. SCORPIO - Oct 24/Nov 22Scorpio, things are a bit rocky at home but you are a survivor. Just wait out this rough patch and you will fi nd that things return to normal in no time at all.SAGITTARIUS - Nov 23/Dec 21A simple change in attitude can bring on an entirely new perspective, Sagittarius. Rather than go with the status quo, try a few new things and see how it goes.CAPRICORN - Dec 22/Jan 20Take a chance on an adventure, Capricorn. It’s good to play by the rules most of the time, but a little excitement can be good for the system. Leo wants to come along.AQUARIUS - Jan 21/Feb 18Aquarius, leave room for a little mystery. While it’s your nature to analyze, play it free and easy this week and enjoy the spontaneity that comes with such an approach.PISCES - Feb 19/Mar 20The financial stars are smiling in your favour, Pisces. That big-ticket purchase has your name on it. Go out and get it.

FAMOUS BIRTHDAYSDEC 19 Alyssa Milano, Actress (38)DEC 20 David Cook, Singer (28)DEC 21 Jane Fonda, Actress (73)DEC 22 Robin Gibb, Singer (61)DEC 23 Harry Shearer, Voice Actor (67)DEC 24 Ryan Seacrest, TV Host (36)DEC 25 Annie Lennox, Singer (56)

Dec 26 - Jan 1ARIES - Mar 21/Apr 20It’s time to get moving, Aries. Beef up an exercise regimen and take health seriously. Get a head start on those New Year’s fi tness resolutions.TAURUS - Apr 21/May 21Taurus, the hectic pace of the holiday season has taken its toll on you. But that doesn’t mean you can’t recuperate quickly. A few days and you’ll be on your feet again.GEMINI - May 22/Jun 21Gemini, expect to spend time in the stores even though the holidays have passed. With some post-holiday money in the bank, you’re ready to take advantage of great deals.CANCER - Jun 22/Jul 22Cancer, surprises await as friends and family members stage an impromptu get-together. It would seem the holiday season is stretching on and on. LEO - Jul 23/Aug 23Leo, with the holiday social schedule clear for the time being, pass the time with hobbies that interest you or sit back and get some well-deserved R&R.VIRGO - Aug 24/Sept 22Virgo, your sharp tongue leaves you in a bit of hot water. Don’t be so quick to talk before you think your words through. Otherwise, you could offend a lot of people.LIBRA - Sept 23/Oct 23Libra, dwell on the positives and this week will soar by. Socializing with friends comes fast and furious; so much so that you don’t have room in your calendar to fi t them all.SCORPIO - Oct 24/Nov 22Scorpio, look for an ally when a sticky situation arises. With a good friend at your side, the situation will soon be nothing more than a distant memory.SAGITTARIUS - Nov 23/Dec 21Sagittarius, a budding relationship gets taken to the next level. However, those closest to you are still on the fence about how they feel toward this special person in your life.CAPRICORN - Dec 22/Jan 20Capricorn, there’s more than meets the eye to a particular situation this week. Someone could be hiding something from you and you don’t like it one bit. AQUARIUS - Jan 21/Feb 18Aquarius, just when you start to doubt your good luck, something goes your way and it’s a big bonus. Share the good news and wealth with a spouse or loved one.PISCES - Feb 19/Mar 20Pisces, this wil l be a week of compromises, and on occasion you will receive the short end of the stick.

The Valley Autism Sup-port Team (VAST) is pleased to present the next in the series by Kym Hume, former Autism Consultant for the Annapolis Valley Regional School Board. Our January meeting will be held Thurs-day, January 13, 2011, at 7:00 p.m. at the Autism Centre in the Kingston and District School, 631 Pine Ridge Avenue, Kingston. For more information, please visit our website at www.annapolisv-ast.org. Kym’s topic is called, “The Zones of Regulation” which is a strategy that teaches children with social emotional regulation diffi cul-ties how to recognize their emotional state and then how to takes steps to stay calm or regain a calm state. It is very helpful for children with anxi-ety, anger or over excitability issues. The Zones are an easy way for children to develop an understanding of them-

selves and what may make them upset. The whole family can use the Zones to describe their emotional state and can collaboratively develop strat-egies to help each other stay calm and happy.Somewhere Beneath the Glimmer that Comes this Time of Winter

By: Sergeant Pete Nicholson, 14 Wing PhotojournalistChildren and Youth services are yet another benefi cial resource that the

GMFRC makes available! This service includes a Parent/Tot Program, Adult and Teen Sitters Lists, Emergency Childcare Services and Programs for children ages 0 -18 years.

Kim Dixon is the Coordinator of Children and Youth Services (local 1812 or [email protected]). Emergency Childcare Services can be accessed after hours through Wing Duty Ops at 765-1494 ext. 5457. Kim has been with the GMFRC since 1999 and like all the staff at the GMFRC, Kim is extremely dedicated and devoted to the unique lifestyle of Canadian Forces (CF) families. Her job is very fulfi lling, following the progression of the children from start to High School graduation. Kim thoroughly believes in what she does.

Children and Youth services are intertwined with other GMFRC departments, with regards to families and children. They have a great partnership with the Annapolis Valley Health Services (AVHS) for babies 0 -1 year. Baby Group is a weekly program to enhance and educate parenting skills.

TUTORING is a No Cost, seven week plan for children of CF members. Screened volunteer tutors, ranging from high school teens to university / college grads (usually spouses) volunteer once a week to assist students with school work. A very successful program of adults tutoring children!

SITTERS LIST is a list of screened and qualifi ed teens and adults who will provide reliable Babysitting services.

EMERGENCY CHILD CARE is provided 24/7 for Operational-ready

personnel, Deployed members’ families and every CF family who meets eligibility requirements in a family emergency. Kim will also assist families in preparing an emergency childcare plan which is highly recommended for all CF families simply because of our lifestyle.

RESPITE CARE offers deployed families a much needed “break”

from childcare responsibilities. Emergency Respite Childcare is available to all CF families.

We have all seen the Canadian Forces (CF) deployments (OP Tempo) accelerate from low to the present day deployments of very high! Most of today’s parents and families are time poor, so go and take advantage of all that the Children and Youth services have to offer.

• at least one year post life

changing injury or illness; • in stable physical and men-

Injured Soldier Network Peer Support Program

Injured Soldier Network Peer Support Volunteers – 7 Oct 2010. (Image submitted)Pairs Aidants Bénévoles du Réseau des Soldats Blessés – 7 oct 2010.

Programme de soutien par les pairs, Réseau des soldats blessés (RSB)

Tous les pairs aidants sont des bénévoles qui doivent suivre une formation afi n de commencer leurs activités avec le RSB. Ils encouragent leurs pairs clients à vivre sans limites, à promouvoir la prise en charge personnelle et sont considérés comme un exemple d’espoir, de ce qui est possible d’atteindre après une blessure traumatique.

La première formation de pairs aidants a eu lieu à Montréal du 4 au 7 octobre 2010. Quatorze pairs aidants bénévoles sont maintenant disponibles dans plusieurs régions au travers du pays. Il y existe toujours un

grand besoin pour plus de bénévoles et des sessions de formation sont déjà prévues pour 2011.

Si vous aimeriez parler avec quelqu’un au sujet d e v o t r e m a l a d i e o u blessure physique ayant changé votre vie, si vous connaissez quelqu’un qui pourrait profi ter du soutien par les pairs ou si vous voulez devenir un pair aidant bénévole pour le réseau des soldats blessés, veuillez contacter l’équipe du réseau des soldats blessés au 1-800-883-6094, ou le centre intégré de soutien du personnel (CISP) en région.

viduals; and • individuals with the poten-

tial and the will to provide peer support to members of the CF.

All peer supporters are volunteers who must be trained in order to carry out their duties with the ISN. They encourage peer clients to live life without limitations, promote empowerment and provide an example of hope, and potential for achievements after a traumatic injury.

The first Peer Support Training session was held in Montreal from 4 to 7 October 2010. We now have 14 qualified peer support volunteers covering many regions across the country.

Many more volunteer peers are required and there training sessions are already planned for 2011.

If you need someone to talk to about your life changing injury or illness or know someone who would benefi t from peer support or if you would like to become a peer support volunteer for the Injured Soldier Network, please contact the Injured Soldier Network team at 1-800-883-6094, or your local Integrated Personnel Support Center (IPSC).

Noth-ing warms the heart more and puts the spirit back into Christmas then hav-ing the pleasure to pres-ent all that was gathered, knowing that there will be a smile on a child’s face this year. We would like to thank all 517 Royal Canadian Air Cadets and Staff for helping out.

My, but the time passes so quickly. Very soon we will be turning over our calendars to the dawn of a new year. The folks of Kingston Village have an opportunity to usher in the New Year with a bang. Once again a celebration is planned at the Western Kings Arena, beginning at 6:00 p.m. December 31st. (A storm date is planned for January 1st.) All events are absolutely free; however, if guests would like to bring something to supplement our Food Bank, all donations of non-perishable items are gratefully received. Cash donations will also be accepted for the Food

Kingston Village New Year’s Eve BangBank, if you don’t want to bother toting a bag of groceries.

You may want to bring along your skates so that you can glide over the ice with Kingsley, our village mascot. Throughout the evening, he will be making appearances, to the delight of all the kiddies. Young and old alike will have the opportunity to skate throughout the evening. When you tire of skating, you can warm up upstairs in the gallery, and listen to musical entertainment. To warm your innards, hot chocolate and steamy cider will be available, at absolutely no cost. Also free hot dogs will be served in

several locations. While you are chatting with friends and neighbours and sipping on a delicious hot beverage, your kiddies can have their faces painted and stand in line to wait their turn for a customized

balloon animal.Another attraction will be

sleigh rides, or, if there is no snow, hay rides. Dress warmly for a nice little jaunt around some of the streets in west Kingston to the jingling of bells

in the frosty night air. All that bouncing about in the back of a wagon or sleigh will help to settle the cotton candy being given away from the Rec Hut, beside the arena. And if your fi ngers aren’t frozen, you might

choose to be fi ngerprinted at the Rec Hut, too, a service provided cheerfully by Murray Rolph.

All this excitement lasts until a little after 9pm when the crowds move outside to admire the splendid fi reworks display, which lasts for approximately 15 minutes. There is nothing more magical than standing outside in the bitter cold watching the light explosions high in the night sky while snowfl akes fall softly between each colourful burst. What a way to end the evening!

So if you have no reservations and no money when New Year’s Eve arrives, don’t despair. Plan to come to Kingston’s Community Celebration at the Western Kings Arena. Join families, young and old, for a wonderful evening fi lled with fun. Share in the genuine sense of community that makes this village such a great place to live and raise a family. Bring a donation to the Food Bank if you are able. And also, bring along lots of good will, hope, and optimism for the year to come.

By the way, if you have read this article and are inspired to help with the execution of this New Year’s Eve event, pop into the village office and offer a hand. Glenn would love to hear from you.
