Everyone enjoyed the beautiful weather & the wonderful food
Watson Farms invited snapd Clarington to the first in a series of events to
be held there this year called, ‘Field to Fork.’ Guests were seated at a long
Tuscan style table in and amongst the seasonal crops that were featured
at Watson Farms. The meal was prepared by the watchful eye of award
winning chef Kathy Anyan, owner of Kcc Gourmet and Catering. After a
tour of the farm, everyone, including farmers, producers, culinary arti-
sans, and guest settled in to share a delicious meal together. As the meal
unfolded, the guests had an opportunity to learn about Watson’s farming
practices, and how the food was prepared. The weather was breathtaking,
and the meal left everyone satisfied.

snapd CLARINGTON
A Letter from
As the weather cooled down, snapd
Clarington slowed down as well com-
pared to last month, which had our
photographers extremely busy. Our
photographers were out and about
covering various events within
our community. The staff at snapd
Clarington enjoyed being a part of
and photographing events such as
the Canada Day festivities through-
out Bowmanville and Newcastle, the
action packed Orono Case 1H Ultimate
Rodeo, the breathtaking Newcastle’s Art Show and the 10th
Annual Dragon Flies Dragon Boat Festival in Port Perry.
Every month something new and exciting comes our way for
us to snap.
We hope your summer has been as entertaining as our’s has
been, and continues to be so in the coming month.
As we travel throughout the community, we see how every-
one has grown and become more connected as a family. We
have witnessed people helping others in need by donating
money, their time, or by fundraising. As we move forward,
we at snapd Clarington hope to see more of that, and will be
there to photograph it!
As July gears down, our photographers will be thrilled
to cover the annual Boots & Hearts Music Festival at the
Canadian Tire Motorsport Park, 3233 Concession Road 10, in
Bowmanville. Thousands will flock to this multi-day country
music festival. Toby Keith, Luke Bryan, Blake Shelton, Paul
Brandt, Lee Brice, Hunter Hayes and a long list of other
country music artists will rock the town away! Don’t miss it.
Boots & Hearts will showcase their country music lineup from
Thursday, July 31 to Sunday, August 3.
In addition to the music, Boots & Hearts teamed up with
various organizations to help make a difference in our com-
munity. The Boots and Hearts Water for Life Campaign helps
bring safe drinking water to ones in need around the world.
For a $2 donation, you can fill up your water bottle at one of
the Water for Life Stations on the grounds. For a $5 donation,
you can receive your own bottle that you can refill for free all
weekend long. Please don’t forget to stop by the MusiCount
booth to donate, too! Proceeds will support music education
in schools around Ontario and Canada.
During August, you can expect to see our photographers going
from one event to the next. So look around to see a friendly
face, and a snap media pass around someone’s neck.
Until next month, be safe, enjoy the rest of your summer, and
we’ll be seeing you around the community. Please do not forget
to submit your events! Without the help of the community, we
couldn’t do what we accomplish every month.

ented, and seasoned performers. For more information and location updates, call 416-703-2773, or

need, he jumped at the chance
to help. With funds raised
through McHappy Day and other
contributions, Mr. Wilson donat-
ed more than $85,000 for the
new Play Area. “We are so very

some native perennial flowers to
watch them grow. People of all

of our horticulture society and
it is our job to inspire them to
carry on our love of gardening.

APPRECIATION LUNCHEON
On June 25, the Clarington Terry Fox Run Committee
hosted the 15th annual luncheon to honour the team
captains and Top 10 fundraising teams that partici-
pated in 2013 run day in September. Certificates were
presented to those teams after the luncheon. Yusuf
Hirji, the guest speaker, discussed how he survived
cancer when he was diagnosed at 16-years-old. Hirji
suffered from the same cancer, Osteosarcoma, that
killed Terry Fox in 1981. Osteosarcoma is the most
common type of bone cancer. It is one of the few
cancers that begin in the bone and will sometimes
spread to other parts of the body.

NEIL NEWTON PHOTO HOP!
On behalf of the Tyrone Community Centre Hall Board, residents
from across Clarington travelled to Tyrone last July to the Neil
Newton Photo Hop. Visitors had the opportunity to view digitally
reprinted images of the brilliant series of portraits document-
ing rural life in the Tyrone, Enniskillen, Haydon, Hampton ad
Blackstock areas of the 1970s. Enjoying some delicious goodies at
Tyrone Mills Limited, many visitors then walked over to the Tyrone
Community Centre to check out the Silver Gelatin Print collection
of original Newtons’ prints. Families, friends, neighbours, and most
astoundingly some of the same characters who were captured
in these historically prints, caught up and reminisced about the
times gone by. The prints perfectly captured the characters and
life in the area at that time.

MOBIL 1 SPORTSCARS GRAND PRIX
A thrilling experience for all who attended the Mobil
1 SportsCar Grand Prix weekend, presented by Hawk
Performance at Canadian Tire Motorsport Park! There
was plenty of open space to watch these beautiful
machines whiz by, driven with such skill to maneuver
this fast track at incredibly high speeds. The view from
the finish line area is a place where the audience could
see the crew stations setup and see the changing of
drivers, gas fill up, and tire changes. Did you know it
takes approximately 30 to 35 seconds to refuel, change
drivers, and 20 seconds to change tires? Those brave
enough to watch near the fence line heard an unforget-
table noise of cars racing by, which you can’t compare
to what you watch on the television. This sound is no
doubt music to the ears of the race car families and
fans! Great entertainment for all who attended, and we
are fortunate to have this facility in our neighbourhood.

Clarington Central Secondary School last June, was more
than just a fundraiser. It was an opportunity to get together
with family and friends to celebrate cancer survivors, remem-
ber loved ones lost to cancer, and fight back in the hope of
finding a cure. These local teams got together for a fulfilling
night of fun, and their participation gives strength to the
Canadian Cancer Society’s mission to eradicate cancer. The
customary survivors first lap, as always, was inspirational
and emotional for both the survivors, and the participants in
this 12-hour overnight event. snapd congratulates everyone
who was there for being part of the biggest cancer event,
helping to make the biggest difference! Relay For Life 2014

18TH ANNUAL POW WOW
Grass Dance is one of the oldest dances
still used in Pow Wow today. The dancers
imitate grass swaying in the wind.
The Mississaugas of Scugog Island First Nation held its 18th traditional Pow Wow last July. The two-day
event welcomed the general public to experience and appreciate the traditions of the Mississaugas
of Scugog Island First Nation. This year’s Pow Wow honoured the 250th year of The Niagara Treaty.
The ancestor and elders were key in establishing the Crown and First Nations relationship for what
we know as ‘Canada’. Hundreds of people attended the Pow Wow of First Nations people as they met,
danced, sang, socialized and honoured the First Nations culture. Many vendors were on hand, selling
food and souvenirs. It was certainly a colourful weekend of education and entertainment. For more

How do birds fly? Where do they live? The Home Depot’s Kids Workshops
of Bowmanville dropped by the Clarington Public Library at the
Newcastle Branch to offer a useful project creation where chil-
dren built a home for a feathered friend. The workshops taught
children do-it-yourself skills and tool safety, while at the same
time helping to instill a sense of accomplishment. Additionally,
this fun time allows for quality one-on-one time between adults
and children. In addition to the newly constructed project kit,
each child received a kid-sized orange apron, similar to
The Home Depot associates’ aprons, and an achievement
pin. With the first month of summer break has gone by
so fast, children are used to being stimulated all day
at school, and Clarington Public Library has filled
that void this summer with various ongoing activi-
ties. Visit their website for other upcoming events,

winners. Wives and friends came out to support the team. Everyone in attendance had a great time.
Baseball is one of life’s treasures, which is found in the thrill of the game, the excitement and joy
of hitting, catching, and throwing with the best teammates. For more information about the Wilmot
Creek Lakers visit www.wilmotcreekcommunity.com

Students from the ages of 11 to 15 participated in a special one-day babysit-
ting course at the Clarington Public Library last month. Students learned
how to care for infants, toddlers and older children, what questions to
ask parents, and what to do in emergencies. Grace Kingston, a Red Cross
certified presenter, partnering with React Right Safety Services, taught
students the fundamental skills needed to start a babysitting service,
and prepared them how to handle many of the different situations
that might arise with their jobs. Upon completion, students received a
babysitter certificate. And with babysitters very much in demand,
students will have lots of opportunities for part-time work.

BOWMANVILLE JUNIOR
TENNIS CAMP
Many of the children would like for this camp to run all summer long
Every year, the Bowmanville Junior Tennis Camp encourages children to become interested in the
sport of tennis by offering a friendly camp based environment. “Tennis is a sport that you can use
your whole life,” said Ellen Logan, event co-ordinator. This local, non-profit event, was held from July
7 to July 11. Children, ages eight through ten, played on the courts in the morning, and the 11 and
14-year-old’s played in the afternoon. The Tennis Camp was a great success this year as 24 children
attended the week long event.

10TH ANNUAL ‘DRAGON FLIES’
DRAGON BOAT FESTIVAL
The Dragon Flies team & organizers.
Great Job to everyone!
The 10th annual Dragon Flies Boat festival had another
successful run this year. But that couldn’t have happened
if not for the support of 1,400 enthusiastic paddlers, more
than 100 volunteers, and numerous visitors at Palmer
Park, in Port Perry. It was a great opportunity for team
building, cooperation and fundraising in a great outdoor
setting. Funds raised will go towards increasing breast
cancer awareness, providing support programs for breast
cancer survivors, and assisting in diagnosis and treatment
of breast cancer in the local municipalities of Durham
Region and Kawartha Lakes. Congratulation to the efforts
of The Dragon Flies for ‘slaying the dragons’ in the fight
against breast cancer.

After being inspired by the ‘Little Couple’, Jennifer, a 5-year-old girl, decided to donate her hair to
cancer patients. A teacher at her school heard of Jennifer’s plans. She suggested Jennifer to cut her
hair in class to spark interest with the other children. A hairdresser agreed to come in to cut the little
girl’s hair for free during school hours. Jennifer and her mother hope that this event will inspire other
people in the community to do the same.
