And CAP won't be asking consumers consumers to dish out the ten dollars or so (plus taxes) for a cassette or CD just because it supports a good cause, she insists. "It's not an item to be bought just because it's charitable. It's an item you can really enjoy." Discussions are still ongoing with Polygram Records and MCA Records for assistance with album distribution. CAP is projecting that 7,000 copies will be an adequate start to satisfy demand demand for the first few years. "We plan to rc-relcase it every year until the market can't take it anymore," anymore," Williamson said. Capital for the Oranges and Tea production was raised largely from business sponsorships and donations. Further sponsorship is still needed, organizers say, to support both the album album and up-coming concerts scheduled scheduled for October and December. All performers on the CD donated their time and talent. Ms Williamson recalls being surprised surprised to discover such a deep pool of untapped talent in and around Cour- ticc when she first started her search for capable performers. Some artists chosen had years of experience behind them, while others had only sung in the shower, said Adclc Simmons, CAP vice-president. What they put together is some surprisingly slick, original content that covers a range of styles including country, religious, sentimental, rock, barbershop-style, sing-a-ong, and carols. carols. This is not run-of-the-mill, forgettable forgettable Christmas fare, participants say. Even the name is a deliberate departure departure from typical Christmas album titles. The name "Oranges and Tea" comes from song lyrics penned by vice-president Adele Simmons. Without mentioning Christmas, the title still manages to conjure up images images of the holidays, but stands out from the hundreds of other Christmas albums, albums, she said. A color sketch of the eventual CD artwork was on display at the Wednesday assembly. The cover will feature a photograph of a gift basket containing oranges and tea. Twelve songs are featured on the Granges and Tea collection. Running time is just under an hour. One of the most prolific composers who worked on the project is Jamie Drynan. Re wrote three songs including thci whimsical ballad of ."Norman, the Three-legged Squirrel," which he also sings. It's a story about determination and faith. And it didn't take long for folks to start clapping along to this one. Another singer who grabbed attention attention at the unveiling was 12-ycar-old Jacqueline Smith, whose strong, clear voice is heard in "The Reason for the Season," written by Jamie Drynan. Other composers include President of Durham College, Gary Polonsky, college professor Adclc Simmons, and firefighters from the Clarington Fire Department. Gary Oliver is one of the musical firefighters. "I think people will be proud that this is home-grown. It's Canadian content and it's overdue," he said. His group, "The Rescuers," may be appearing soon on Breakfast Television Television in Toronto. Adclc Simmons praised the Entertainment Entertainment Administration students she teaches at Durham College for their role in the project. They will continue to be involved with the artists by promoting the CD, the concerts, and individual careers of some of the musicians. "It's instant class material, instant homework and instant publicity," Ms Simmons said. 'The students win and the community wins." Volunteers with CAP plan to embark embark on other creative ventures in the future, including a possible animated feature of the "Norman" song with the co-operation of Sheridan college students. students.

In a letter to Clarington Mayor Diane Hamre and Council, Catherine Lyall of Jones Avenue, wrote about a piece of property next to hers which is being used as a dirt bike track. "The 67 acres owned by a developer developer has been turned into a full-fledged dirt bike track with ramps, dirt pits, and all," states Lyall.

Lyall beseeches the councillors and tire mayor by telling them: "Mayor "Mayor Hamre, I heard your speech at one of your council meetings stating you and your family moved to the country for the peace and quiet. " Lyall writes in her letter that she has contacted the police and states "they cannot do anything because the land is not posted with "No Trespassing" Trespassing" or "No Dirt Bike" signs. They say they could lay charges if signs were posted." Lyall requested that the council think about the fact that if any of the bikers are injured, the owners of the property are liable. She also adds: "What we need is to enforce the by-law already in effect (with stiff fines) for anyone creating this type of noise." Council sent Lyall's letter to staff to take action.
