  • Car Lottery Proceeds Support Perley and Rideau Seniors
    May 22, 2014 | Keys to Scott-King's convertible go to Almonte man; Car lottery proceeds support Perley and Rideau seniors Submitted Richard Swartman, left, beams after winning a 1988 red convertible once owned by Canadian figure skating champion Barbara Ann Scott-King. Delphine Haslé, development officer with the Perley and Rideau Veterans' Health Centre Foundation, and foundation executive director Daniel Clapin, drew Swartman's ticket in the car lottery fundraiser. Ottawa South News By Erin McCracken An Almonte man is the winner of a 1988 red convertible once owned by Canadian figure skating champion Barbara Ann Scott-King. Richard Swartman's ticket was drawn on May 9 from 1,093 tickets, which each cost $100, in a fundraising lottery organized by The Perley and Rideau Veterans' Health Centre Foundation. The first question Daniel Clapin, foundation executive director, asked Swartman when he called to tell him the news was, do you like the colour red? Swartman had no idea what Clapin was talking about, until the director spelled out the good news. "When we called him from the stage ... you could hear his wife jumping up and down, 'We won a car. We won a car,'" said Clapin. Scott-King's Mercedes Benz 560 SL roadster, valued at $40,000, was donated by Scott-King's husband, Tom King. Proceeds from the event, held in honour of the legendary figure skater's gold-medal performance during the 1948 Olympic Games, will go to The Perley and Rideau's Building Choices, Enriching Lives capital campaign. Scott-King, who passed away in September 2012, joined the campaign that same summer as one of three honourary co-chairs.

  • Welcome to the “Barbara Ann Scott: Come Skate with Me” Exhibit Podcast Presented by the City of Ottawa Archives
    Welcome to the “Barbara Ann Scott: Come Skate with me” exhibit podcast presented by the city of Ottawa archives. In the podcast, City Archivist Paul Henry interviews Barbara Ann Scott at her home in Florida, and Educational Programming Officer Olga Zeale interviews Paul Henry and Elizabeth Manley in Ottawa. PH: My name is Paul Henry, I am City Archivist for the City of Ottawa. OZ: Why was it important for the City of Ottawa Archives to acquire Barbara Ann Scott’s collection? PH: Uh, well the mandate of the City of Ottawa Archives is to document the corporation of the City of Ottawa as well as serve as a repository for records that would otherwise be lost to history; records that in particular tell the story of the individual contributions of notable citizens, organizations, businesses, community organizations, that have contributed to the fabric of Ottawa and which tell, essentially, the story of the gap between what the City does and what our known history of an area is. So, the private records really flush out and make interesting a story of Ottawa beyond its role as a nation‟s capital. The Barbara Ann Scott collection fulfills that in many ways. Barbara is our most decorated citizen, our most decorated Olympic athlete, and if you think back to those days in „47 and „48 when we had, and gave Barbara the key to the city and had events and parades in her honour. The number of people that came out in those days to celebrate her accomplishments was certainly something, and in many ways, the city, in some way belongs to Barbara.

    Noorwegen / 2018 / 113 min / Noors en Engels met Nederlandse ondertitels Première datum Nederland: 31/10/19 Distributie: Arti Film VOF – Hilversum - www.artifilm.nl ; Tel.: 0623885005 Waargebeurd en fascinerend verhaal over de Noorse Sonja Henie, één van de grootste kunstschaatssters ter wereld en ‘uitvinder’ van deze sport. Sonja is 16 jaar oud als ze op de Winterspelen van 1928 Olympisch Goud wint. Een prestatie die ze herhaalt in 1932 en 1936. Daarmee is ze nog steeds de enige vrouw die dit Olympische resultaat solo boekte. In 1936 vertrekt ze naar Hollywood waar ze een aantal zeer succesvolle schaatsfilms maakt. Eind jaren dertig is ze de best betaalde Hollywood actrice en door lucratieve nevenactiviteiten en merchandising is ze één van de rijkste vrouwen ter wereld. In haar villa in Hollywood is ze altijd omringd door fans, minnaars en haar familie. Ze vertrouwt haar zaken blindelings toe aan haar oudere broer, maar gaandeweg begint haar roem te verbleken en als het financieel slecht gaat door foute investeringen verandert ze van een inspirerende en gefocuste sportster in een keiharde zakenvrouw die in de spotlight wil blijven staan.. Korte synopsis Waargebeurd verhaal over de Noorse Sonja Henie, één van de grootste kunstschaatssters ter wereld. Op drie opeenvolgende Winterspelen won ze Olympisch Goud met deze door haar “uitgevonden” sport. In 1936 vertrekt ze naar Hollywood waar ze de best betaalde Hollywood actrice werd. Het is het opmerkelijke verhaal van een fascinerende vrouw die er alles aan doet om in de spotlight te blijven staan. Oneliner Waargebeurd en fascinerend verhaal over kunstschaatsster en drievoudig Olympisch Kampioene Sonja Henie die eind jaren dertig de best betaalde Hollywood actrice werd.

  • Barbara Ann Scott King Opens a New Window
    Stories from Bosque Bello The lives they led… Barbara Ann Scott King In 1948 in St. Merits, Switzerland during the Sixth Winter Olympics, this premier athlete was awarded the Gold Medal in the ladies' singles figure skating event. Her married name was Mrs. Barbara Ann Scott King, but most people on Amelia Island or in Canada, her country of birth, just called her "Barbara Ann." Dubbed “Canada's Sweetheart," Barbara Ann was born in 1928 in Ottawa, the daughter of an army colonel. She began skating at age 6. By age 9, she had a daily 7-hour training routine. She was 11 when she won the national junior championship. At 13, Barbara Ann became the first female skater to complete a double lutz in competition. By the age of 15, Barbara Ann was Canada's senior National Champion. She was also the only Canadian to win the European Championship twice, in both 1947 and 1948. Following these wins, she competed in the Winter Olympics where she won her gold medal at the age of 18. The Canadian Prime Minister said that Barbara Ann helped "lift Canada out of its post-war gloom." She is the only woman to simultaneously hold the Canadian, North American, European and World championship titles and the Olympic gold medal in Women’s Figure Skating. Following her Olympic win, Barbara Ann became a Canadian national hero and was so popular that dolls were made in her image. The Scott doll was the gift to have for a generation of young Canadians. She later toured as a professional as part of the Hollywood Ice Revue.
