Sunday. Jonathan Emond, 17, who was a t S8BIH » •T 1 % M passenger in the 1991 Cavalier’s front seat, was taken to the Pontiac Health Centre hospital in Shawville where he was pronounced dead. Two 17-year-old boys in the back seat were transferred to hospital in Hull with life-threatening injuries. The male driver and a 15-year-old female sitting in the back seat were treated for non-life threatening injuries. The occupants had to be removed from the car with the jaws of life. The five teenagers the Hull sector of the City of Gatineau and three from Aylmer — had left the Shaw ville Fair shortly before the accident. Police said alcohol was not a factor in the accident.

The dam, which bursted on or about Saturday, Aug. 16. was on a small creek running underneath the road and the Cyclopark. Once notified, Pontiac MRC placed notices on the gates on both sides of the washout warning cyclists to be careful. The washout took out trees, a section of the bike trail and washed out a large chunk of soil near the culvert outlet.

In fact, there are many good things to say about this, the 148th edition of Pontiac’s premier agricultural fair and the biggest fair in the Valley, just as there are many good things to say each year. Planning, preparing, organizing and managing a fair that now brings in more than 55,000 visitors each year is no easy task. However, with more than 500 volunteers of all ages assisting the Pontiac Agricultural Society’s board of directors with managing the many divisions of the Fair, the variety of crowd-pleasing events, from the musical entertainment and the cattle and horse shows to the kids’s stuff and the midway, are presented in clean, orderly fashion. To ensure the family Fair is a secure and safe place, the Ag Society was assisted by a contingent of Pontiac MRC Sûreté du Québec officers and orange T-shirt wearing security officers who patrolled the grounds to keep things in line. Once again, the weather, for the most part, cooperated, splashing more sunshine than raindrops on the fairgrounds. Given that this year’s theme was “youth," it should be noted that many volunteers on the fairgrounds came from this age group, thereby guaranteeing that when the current crop of leaders retires, there will be another generation coming up to replace them, continuing the tradition set down 148 years ago. Maybe in another 148 years, their will be new way of saying “great fair." mt Dove Moore.

Have you put STAY CLEAR, STAY SAFE I 9 ONTARIO POWER GENERATION CARES ABOUT YOUR SAFETY. That’s why we re asking residents and visitors to stay clear of our hydroelectric stations, dams and surrounding waterways. They’re dangerous places for recreational activities. Hydroelectric can operate 24 hours a day and their operations affect water flows and levels, which can change quickly and without notice. Some dams have gates that might be remotely controlled and in just a few minutes, can change calm waters or a dry riverbed into dangerous waters with swift currents and rising levels. Be alert for warnings, signs, booms and buoys. Whenever you see water levels changing, move immediately - and always make sure you are a safe distance away. Stay clear and stay safe.
