41 No. 4 April 2004 Renforth Creek Clean-up Planned for Spring OK - let's get the whole family out - Yes, Uncle Chris
and Aunt Cloe too! It’s time to clean up a little of our own Markland
Wood's beautiful Renforth Creek. As our contribution to the Mayor's Clean-up
Toronto Day, Saturday, April 24th, the MHA is planning a
community effort to remove garbage and other debris from the stream. The details on what’s to be done and, equally
important, what is not to be done is still being worked out with City
officials. We don't want to pull out bushes, which should stay, or
leave those which should go! At 10:30 a.m. on Saturday, April 24th, we will meet in
the parking lot of Bloordale United Church. Teams will be assigned at that
time. The city will be providing the garbage bags, but you
will need to bring sturdy work gloves, rubber boots, some rope, hats in case of sunshine, and rain gear if the weather
is touchy. Expect to get wet and dirty! For further information, please call Richard Boehnke at
(416) 621 5089. Put it on your calendars: Annual Spring Community
Garage Sale Saturday May 29th / Rain or
Shine! If you’re new in Markland
Wood, ask a neighbour. They’ll tell you about it. The Deadline
for the May issue: Monday April 19th. Please note: All
submissions for the Marklander should be sent to: Graham Maguire, 2 Broadfield Drive,
620-4398. If "lengthy", it helps if you
send it as a Wordperfect or Word document to my e-mail address: daffodil@pathcom.com.
However, short notes dropped in my post-box are fine! President’s Update Greetings ! Welcome to Spring. The sunlight hours are
getting longer.We are coming out of another winter, which saw
us get a steady dose of snow and consistent temperatures below
freezing. But, on the whole, it was not too bad, as we have experienced more
snow and extreme temperatures in seasons past. With Spring’s thaw comes mud,
nature’s debris and human garbage and the opportunity to do some community
service. Community service is the theme for this
month and each of us have some opportunities to contribute. The first is
happening on April 24th, in conjunction with Mayor Miller’s Clean-up Day in
Toronto. Our own Renforth Creek, which winds its way along the eastern
edge of Markland Wood, is in serious need of a clean-up. See Tom Napier’s
article below. Another project, which is currently being
planned, has to do with the adoption of a portion of the Etobicoke Creek,
which runs along the western Markland Wood border. The project is entitled “Stewardship
of the Etobicoke Creek”, and involves homeowner and ratepayer
associations doing their part to help clean and maintain the creek. Our
portion would primarily cover the west side of the creek from Burnhamthorpe on
the north end to possibly Dundas on the south. It is my understanding that the
Markland Wood Country Club is involved with maintaining the east side of the
creek along that stretch. There are improvements planned for the walking area
on the west side of the creek, as well as a bike path, which will extend north
of Burnhamthorpe along the creek
on the east side. This project should attract those members of the Markland
Wood community, young and old alike, who care about the environment and the
appearance of their surroundings.
The directors of the Markland Homes Association fully support this effort and
are working with other communities in coordinating the project. As this plan
develops, we will let you know the details and what you can do to help. A final item, regarding community service,
has to do with becoming a director of the Markland Homes Association (MHA) or
a member of a special committee. Several of you have spoken with our directors
about becoming involved with the Association in a limited or expanded role,
depending on your time allowances. I can tell you that the time commitment is
not very much in any given month, outside of the two-hour monthly meeting. I
for one would not be able to contribute to this organization if it was. One of
my mandates for this year has been to prepare the MHA for some kind of
succession plan. We have ten very dedicated board members who live in this
community and we need more. The future of the Markland Wood Homeowners
Association, now in it’s 40th year, depends on you. One of the great
strengths of this neighbourhood is the MHA. Those of you who read this
publication know I have brought this up before.
Those of you who are new to the area have the chance to become involved
and meet and work with fellow members of your community. On Tuesday evening, April 27th, the MHA
will be hosting an evening at the Markland Wood Golf and Country Club from
7:30-9:00 p.m. The purpose of this event is to
welcome potential directors and to allow them to meet and get to know myself
and the other directors of the Homes Association. I promise you it will be a
relaxed and casual event, complete with refreshments, where you can find out
more about the role of the MHA in
our community, its plans and its directors. Please indicate your wish to
attend by telephoning Bev Evans, myself, or any one of the other directors by
April 24th. We look forward to meeting you and we thank you in advance for all
of your community service. Have a wonderful Easter Season. Best regards, Patrick Clifford President, Markland Homes Association 2003-2004 Board of Directors EXECUTIVE PRESIDENT: Patrick

Airport Noise Complaints: (416) 247-7682 Letter to the Editor I was furious this morning! I was out for
my early morning run, and could not believe what the freshly melted snow had
revealed in my beautiful neighborhood. Garbage and litter in excessive
volumes! It is absolutely abhorrent what is happening in our community, our
city and in society in general. There is something fundamentally wrong and
missing from the basic moral fibre of our society these days. I find it
impossible to understand how people can just fling their trash on the ground,
oblivious to the damage to the environment and to the decay of our
neighborhood, expecting someone else to pick up after them. I have to say that
the two worst areas were the stretch on Mill Rd., from McDonald’s to the
high school, and from the mall at Renforth
and Rathburn north to the schools there. So I will make a stretch and blame a
large part of the litter problem on our kids. I can only attribute this
careless apathetic attitude to BAD PARENTING. I was a rebellious longhaired
rocker in my teens, but there are certain things I never did, one of which was
littering. I was brought up to believe it was wrong, and to this day, I can't
throw any litter on the ground. Are we not teaching our kids basic moral
rights and wrongs? I am not preaching here – this has nothing to do with
going to church etc. It is just human courtesy at its most basic. My
5-year-old daughter gets upset when she sees a particularly bad area of trash.
She will yell out "pigs" when she sees garbage, and she is right.
Every single one of you who tosses their refuse out the car window is a
pathetic PIG! And it is not just kids. I use the Dundas exit from the
northbound 427 all the time. Take a look at all the garbage at the lights when
you exit. What is wrong with you people that you can't put your trash on the
floor of your car and transfer it to a can when you get home?? I would love to
hear an explanation from one of you pigs. When you are walking back from
McDonald’s to school at lunch and you toss the wrappers on the ground, do
your friends smile? Is it COOL to litter? If so, kids are pretty sad these
days. I can guarantee that when I was a teenager we had the bar for COOLNESS
much higher! And yes you are kids – no matter what your age, you don't reach
the "adult" stage until you prove yourself responsible in certain fundamentals of living.
Maybe it is time to insist that our schools make community cleanup a mandatory
part of education. I hope that this message gets to our local schools, and
that as many parents and teachers as possible discuss this with their
children. It starts at home. I will be out with my 5-year-old one day soon,
cleaning up my own corner of the world. Let's not let Markland Wood, this
beautiful and fantastic community, become another decaying sore spot in
Toronto. Greg Rohn 102 Mill Rd. (416) 626-0562 2004 Markland Wood Scholarships According to Buddhist text, the master in
the art of living makes little distinction between his work and his play, his
labour and his leisure, his mind and his body, his education and his
recreation, his love and his religion. He hardly knows which is which. He
simply pursues his vision of excellence in whatever he does,
leaving others to decide whether he is working or playing. To him he is
always doing both. For 2004, in support of the pursuit of excellence, the
Markland Homes Association will once again be awarding $1,000 scholarships to
two graduating high school students from the Markland Wood community who: a) demonstrate outstanding and consistent
outreach to their community; and, b) have been accepted for entrance to, and
enrolled in, an accredited Canadian University or Community College in the
coming year. Expressions of interest are to be submitted
to the Blinder of the Markland Wood Award Committee by the 31st of May. At
that time, the Applicant should provide to the award Committee: a) An essay, written by the student (up to
two typed pages), describing his/her community leadership involvement, which
should include: insight into personal motivation to undertake the activity;
what has been accomplished; what meaningful contribution has been made to the
community, and what he or she has learned from the experience. b) Two letters of support or confirmation
from the community group(s), or individuals who have been the focus of the
student’s involvement By July 31st the student must provide
a copy of the student’s letter of acceptance and enrolment in an accredited
Canadian University or Community College. For further information, please call
one of the directors of your Markland Homes Association. All completed submissions should be forwarded to: The Markland Homes Association, P.O. Box 11, Station “A” Etobicoke, Ontario Attn: The Blinder for the Award Committee From Tom’s Desk Spring is in the air, little birdies
everywhere….. My favourite is the Cardinal. As part of an effort to clean up the
streets of Toronto, on Friday April 23rd at 2:00 p.m. there will be a 20-
minute Toronto makeover and all day Saturday on April 24th, will be Mayor
Miller’s Community Clean-up Day for the City of Toronto. The message is very
simple. Toronto is being buried under piles of trash and it
needs to be cleaned up! Right here in Markland Wood there is enough
litter to fill many containers. I recently rode my bicycle north along the
Renforth Creek Park trail (east side of Markland Wood) from Neilson Park to
Burnhamthorpe. Not only is the trail littered with trash, but also there are
many bottles, bags and other waste in the creek bed. This winter has really
brought a huge mess to our local parks and streets.We need your help
collecting the trash that litters our Markland Wood streets and parks. On
April 24th starting at 10:30 a.m. at Bloordale United Church parking lot, the
MHA is organizing a Markland Wood Renforth Creek Clean-up. Please come out and
help. Don’t forget to bring your gloves.We will supply the bags. In the meantime, here are the top ten tips
for keeping Toronto clean (from the www.toronto.ca/litter web site): 1. Once you butt out, butt in. Smokers, put
your butts in the ashtray and cigarette packs in the bin. 2.You can pop it in the bin. Recycle your
pop cans. 3. Roll up to the bin and toss it in.
Everyone's drinking coffee on the go - make sure your cup ends up in the bin. 4. Don't make yesterday's news tomorrow's
trash. The real news would be if we all recycled our ewspapers. 5. Gum shoe blues. Aim for the bin, not the
sidewalk. 6. Fast food = fast litter. Put the brakes
on fast food litter. 7. Dial "L" for litter. Program
your cell's speed dial to 39-CLEAN to report litter hot spots. 8. Everybody needs a pick-me-up. Pledge to
pick up one piece of litter daily. 9. Bin there, do that. With thousands of
bins out there, just walk those few extra steps. 10. Talking trash is okay. Remind family,
friends, kids and colleagues not to litter. I received a letter in March from ‘The
Clerk at the House of Commons’, dated February 6. It reads that we can use
the telephone number or email address listed below or fax 416-2231-2052 to
contact; The Honourable Mauril B_langer, P.C., M.P., Chief Government Whip,
Etobicoke Centre riding office. Correspondence should be addressed Attn: Phil
Parsons. It looks as if Mauril B_langer will be looking after our interests
until Etobicoke Centre gets a by-election or P.M. Martin holds the
much-anticipated general election. Thanks, Tom Napier, VP-MHA Tel: 416-622-9630 Email: tlcnapier1@aol.com Contact information for our elected

Toronto Department Web Site: http://www.toronto.ca/departments/ School News Millwood Junior School Another month has flown by! Tropical Day
was a welcome event the Friday before the March break. Students enjoyed
wearing their summer gear and were treated to ice cream by the Home &
School Association. The students
also raised $ 480 for Sleeping Children Around the World, which will
buy an additional 9 bed kits. Marc Tardiff, a magician, visited the school and
provided a spectacular show for the French Immersion and Core French students.
The month of March also saw the grade 4 and 5 classes head off to the opera
and grades 1 to 4 went to the Metro Zoo. The Scientist in the School
Program brought in a real scientist to conduct science experiments with
some of the classes and Millwood students participated in gymnastics during
their gym classes. The Dance Club has started, prepping students and staff for
the annual Dance-a- Thon in June. The Millwood Family Skate allowed everyone
to capture a last taste of winter and now we are all looking forward to
spring! We are getting very excited about the Fun Fair, a bi-annual
event. It is to be held on Saturday, April 17, from 10-2 and everyone
in the community and from other schools is welcome! Wishing all a happy Easter and warmer
weather! Larissa Bayrachny Silverthorn Collegiate Institute Congratulations to all the boys on our
varsity hockey team, who became champions when they beat
Thistletown in the West Regional finals. It was an exciting win with a
score of 6-5 that led our boys to be #1. Many thanks to the players and the
coaches for their hard work and dedication.We’re all proud of you! Congratulations are also in order for the
cast and crew of SCI’s play “Frank’s Muziq Store”, who competed in the
Sears Festival. The adjudicator’s results were announced and our play was
placed in the top four in their division, which means they beat out over
twenty other schools to move onto the next round. They will perform again in
mid-April, so wish them luck! LIGHT has
sponsored a child through Compassion Canada and they will be fundraising to
help make the monthly payments needed. The sponsored child’s name is Ruth.
She’s five years old and she lives in Kenya. It costs $35/month to sponsor
her and the club hopes to be able to continue her sponsorship through next
year as well. Valerie Foulkes Church News Bloordale United Church 4258 Bloor St.West. Etobicoke, Ontario, M9C 1Z7 621-1710 Morning services at 10:30 a.m. Youth/Young
