Volume 36 Number 8 September 15, 2006 Septemberreport 15, 2006 Vol. 36 No. 8 Serving the Glebe community since 1973 FREE "Dancing in the Streets" raises $60K for cancer research was true to his word and proceeded to demonstrate his dancing capabilities. Throughout the day crowds enjoyed free performances by professional mu- sicians and entertainers appearing at the Scotiabank stage at Glebe Ave. and by talented local artists (many budding professionals) at the Loeb Glebe stage at Third Ave. The festivities were capped by a performance by Jeff Healey and the Jazz Wizards to close off the evening. Not everyone was as light on their feet as Max Keeping (and the Mayor, for that matter). Some just listened and others enjoyed a meal alfresco. It is estimated that some twelve thousand participants enjoyed "Dancing in the Streets." The purpose of the event was to deliver the message that cancer can be beaten and is being beaten every day. Conveying this message of hope, rather than fundraising, was the objective for the Ottawa Regional Cancer Founda- tion which organized the event. Nevertheless, funds were raised as volunteers sold water and hot dogs, Glebe merchants offered items for sale in a silent auction and contribution collection drums were scattered along the street. Money collected at the event will all go to the Cancer Foundation for cancer care and research. As Peter Hamer of the Founda- Anto: 'OteanL tion put it, "the event was to in- GCA president, Bob Brocklebank; past president, June crease awareness and focus on Creelman; Mayor Bob Chiarelli and Capital ward councillor Clive Doucet the positives.

"I'm keen on putting togeth- er an eclectic series with some fun, some religion, and some politics if possi- ble. We'll take people in directions they wouldn't normally go," says Crosby. There will be visits from authors, such as Gerry Kenney. He has a keen in- terest in the exploration of the Northwest Passage. He's on the list of October speakers. Kenney plans to share his research on previous attempts to find an international shipping route through the north. For those with a wanderlust, there are sessions on travel, including a dis- cussion with Teena Hendelman on her travels to China from Shanghai to the foothills of the Himalayas. Travel Cuts will make presentations on cruising the world, and tours through Europe. Organizer Dorrit Crosby takes the mi- crophone herself in December to show pictures and talk about her three-week trip to Peru. There she walked the Inca Trail, climbed up to Machu Picchu and visited Cusco and the Ballestas Islands. Closer to home, the Glebe's Ian McKercher will take people on a trip through the neighbourhood's history. "You'll meet interesting and influential people, visit grand old buildings and find out how the Glebe came to be the strong community it is today." Author and humorist Brian Doyle will join the speakers' series in October to read from a few of his books and sign copies.
