Sadly missed by wife Frances and Family 21,ap Bih Bramah's Ontarjo 've met intcresting people: id seen interesting places during our visits to Northern Ontario. The spîcodor of Lake Superior's forth shore is etched in mv memory. Joining MY Prospector buddy Alex Peron as we trudged througb the bush to bus mining camp on autumn morning brings happy recoileci ions. But one of the most surprising places we've been is a huge garden- ing compiex in Timmins called Lafleur Gardens. Somehow, you don'i expect to sece sucb a sbowplace in a mining town. On top of that, il was origioally started by ani underground miner and bis wife, and now their seven sons and their wives are in the business. Back in 1946, Agnas Lafleur and his wife' Germaine planted a vegetable garden, primarily for their own use. But before long they were selling iheir surplus produce at the local Farmer's Market. Wben the market closed in the mid '60s, tbey converted an old garage mb oa vegetable stand. Later, their sons buili a small greenhouse oui of old windows for them, which was beateti witb a coal oil furnace. tbe greenhouse was filled witb tomates and bedding plants. the first crop was a sellout aod a second greenhouse was built the following year. Il continued that way year after year tbroughout the '70s until there were thousands upon thousands of square feet of greenhouses. As the business grew, aIl seven of the Lafleurs' sons becamne involved 143 King St. E. Bowmranville, Ont.

Canadien Athiete motiva tes students S andra Levy, a world class athlete and member of thc Canadian Field Hockey Teamn visited students at Pines Senior Public Sebool. She was born in Jamaica, now resides in Markham and attends York University studying Mass Communications and English. She recently attendcd the 1990 World Cbampionships in Australia, was 6th at the 1988 Olympies in Seoul and have won many other medals over the pasi five years. The miessage she is bringing to studentsail around Ontario is that Athleti cs and Academies must have an even balance. Sandra represents a province widc Speakers'Bureau (FAME) "Femalc Atbletes Motivating Excellence." The bureau is made up of successful Oniario female athletes, retired comrpetitors and coaches. ln recounting their own personal experiences and accomplishments, tbey try ta make girls and-boys more aware of tbe benefits of an active lifestyle. The presentation also relates ta excellence and setting continuai goals as well as learning ta handie stress. This keeps students moving in a forward direction. She said unfortunately fewer Ontario girls and womcn participate and excel in sports thani is the case witb boys and men. lit ber opfinion it bas just been tradition tbat girls were not expected ta participate in sports as boys were. But tint is cbanging. Being an athiete lakes bours of weekly training and stili being able ta maintain, a minimum of a C+ average in order ta compete at the Varsity level. She urges all atbletes ta take their studies as seriaus as there sport as it only taises on seriaus injury in any sport ta finish an athlete. Setting bots short and long terni goals in sports and career sbould bave an equal balance. .She said regretfully that it is much taugber for a rural student ta train and campete against opponeots that are enralled in sports elite programs in bigb sehools in the culies. Altbough some rural high scbools are understanding and can adjust timetables wben necessary, the strain and expense of travelling can make it difficult. Witb athletes peaking at a younger age as is the case in the past decade, parents also must be committed as tbey bave to drive young athletes ta the larger ceoters in most cases, wbere the higb level of coaching and balanced programs are run. Sandra Levy feels stroogly that good athietes make good students and vice versa. They learn ta acccpt discipline and build good working habits through an active life at a very early age. The stress they must learn ta bandle also reflccts in the classroom under pressure. Il stands ta reason, that if a students wants special privileges through a scbool then be or sbe must bave the marks ta justify tbe request. lim sure ail boys and girls who had the opportunity ta listen ta Sandra Levy left school that day thioking of how ta better theIý- lifestyle or maybe even set a go&-" Even small short termi goals couait!
