Taking Cornwall by storm : Christal Bowen
FRANCIS RACINE francis.racine@eap.on.ca
CORNWALL | The love of dance has always been a part of Christal Bowen’s life. It comes as no surprise then that, on August 13, 2007, the Cornwall native started tak- ing the friendly seaway city by storm with what is now well known as Zumba. “Back then, not a lot of people knew exactly what Zumba was,” she says, while harbor- ing a smile. “I was at Summit Fitness for the longest time. I had only !ve people in my class, and sometimes, I wouldn’t even have anyone.” With her classes now averaging 150 stu- dents, Bowen credits her patience as well as her approach in making her what she is now, one of Canada’s leading instructor of Zumba. “Even if I’d have one student, I always took the time to make sure that they left satis- fied,” she explains. “That way, I knew they would leave happy and probably bring their friends back next time.” Fortunately for the Cornwall native, they did. Zumba with Christal now attracts peo- ple from all over SD&G and even Brockville. “Some days, I’ll even have people from Europe stop by,” she says proudly. “They visit Cornwall and stop by on their way through.” Renting out the Nativity Hall ensures the Zumba instructor enough room to accom- modate the ever-growing number of her students. But even so, some unpredictable things are bound to happen. “Once, we were about to go in and start our Zumba, but we were locked out of it,” she says. “So I just hooked up my music to my car and we all did Zumba in the park- ing lot. Even the neighbours pitched in, with extra lights!” As well as organizing everything, Bowen takes it upon herself to create unique themes for all of her classes. “Some days, I’ll have glow party classes and even flash mob classes,” she outlines. “Next week, we’re even bringing country music to dance to.” With its popularity booming, Bowen decid- ed to incorporate charitable help within her classes. “Every year, we organize toys for tots ,” she says. “During one specific class, every par- ticipant has to bring in one toy to get in. This way, we amassed over 300 toys one year!” Bowen also had the original idea of mix- ing in Zumba with Cornwall’s very own downtown. The result: free Zumba at the corner of Pitt Street and Second, other- wise known as the Pommier Square. Every Tuesday, thirty or so participants dance to the rhythm of mostly Latin music, enter- taining the curious bystanders. “It’s amazing,” the instructor admits.

“There are people we’ll see over and over every week. They go out for supper and spend the rest of the evening watching us.” When asked why she thinks Zumba has become so popular not only in Cornwall but all over the world, Bowen ponders the question, before answering. “I truly think that people want to get in shape and lose weight,” she says. “And Zumba is something of a workout, that doesn’t feel like one.” Along with downtown Zumba, Bowen also offers Zumba Toning, which includes body
sculpting techniques using sticks, Aqua Zumba, self-described as a pool party, Zumba Sentao, which incorporates chairs to improve strength and Zumba Gold, which is targeted to senior citizens. This, in turn, has helped potential participants in finding what they specifically wanted in their workouts. “Sometimes, there are people that prefer Aqua Zumba, since it’s totally different than my regular classes,” she explains. “Others simply hate the water and would
never do it.” Although she’s garnished much attention throughout the continent, the instruc- tor still feels she owes the residents of Cornwall for the opportunity they have given her. “Without them, I wouldn’t be doing what I love the most,” she says emotionally. “I want to thank everyone who attends, even if it was only once and I want to thank the ones that help me.”

Résidents déçus de la fermeture de No Frills

CORNWALL | Plusieurs résidents de la région du centre-ville de Cornwall sont déçus de la décision de No Frills de fermer ses portes au centtre commercial Cor- nwall Square. L’opinion publique est telle qu’une pétition, recueillant les noms de 448 signataires, a été déposée auprès du magasin le 8 aoû t dernier. Selon Debbie St. John-de Witt, directrice exécutiveduCentrede sant é communautaire Seaway Valley, la fermeture de l’épicerie constituerait la perte d’un pilier important pour la communauté. «Les familles et individus pourront-ils subvenir à leurs besoins en terme de nutri- tion?, a demandé Mme St. John-de Witt. Le Centre de santé communautaire reconnaît que nous devons tous travailler ensemble pour résoudre le problème.» Les familles et individus pourront-ils subvenir à leurs besoins en terme de nutrition? Debbie St. John-deWitt Lors de l’ouverture de la nouvelle épice- rie No Frills au centre commercial Eastcourt, plusieurs se demandaient si les jours de l’emplacement du centre-ville étaient comp- tés. Quelques mois plus tard, la décision a été annoncée aux gens de la région. Une soixantaine d’emplois seront perdus, soit 57 à temps partiel et trois à temps plein. Selon Karen Burns, gestionnaire du Corn- wall Square, la compagnie Partners REIT, propriétaire du centre commercial, serait à

En e#et, la plupart des habi- tués de l’épicerie venaient du centre-ville et des environs. Mme Burns estime qu’il est fort probable qu’un plus petit magasin, o#rant les mêmes services, puisse voir le jour au Cornwall Square d’ici les prochains mois. Elle ajoute que l’espace de 40 000 pieds carrés pourrait aussi être occupé par deux magasins.

New look for Second Street? In 2010, the City of Cornwall adopted the Bicycle and Pedestrian Master Plan (BPMP), a document in which the City will largely base its bicycle and pedestrian- related decisions in the next decade and beyond. Part of the implementation of the above mentionedMaster Plan includes the conversion of Second Street into amore pedestrian and bicycle-friendly route. In 2014, the City is intending to proceed with the conversion of Second Street into a more bicycle and pedestrian-friendly route from Amelia Street to Anderson Drive. The conversion will impact the number of through lanes on Second Street, reducing them to one lane per direction plus an additional two-way left-turn center lane. The proposed lane con!guration will pro- vide su"cient capacity for the current and projected tra"c volumes. The section of Second Street West between Augustus Street and Hoople Avenue was converted in a similar fashion in 2011. A public open house and information session will be held on August 13, 2014 at 1225 Ontario Street from 1:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. to give residents a chance to review project drawings, ask questions and provide input. Nouvel entraîneur pour les River Kings L’organisation des River Kings de Cornwall a annoncé, le 8 août dernier, lors d’une conférence de presse au Centre Civic, qu’Olivier Fillion, ancien joueur de l’équipe, dirigera celle-ci lors de la prochaine saison. «Cornwall est une vraie ville de hockey, a-t-il expliqué. Nous avons les meilleurs amateurs de ce sport et je sais qu’ils seront à chacune de nos parties.» L’homme âgé de 31 ans est originaire de Saint-Sauveur au Québec.

New rest stops along waterfront
Submitted photo
A series of new rest stops have been installed along Cornwall’s waterfront recreational path for the bene!t of residents and visi- tors. The new stops, nine in total, feature black metal benches, bike racks and garbage cans on concrete pads. “This project was
proposed by the Waterfront Committee and builds on previous enhancements made to the waterfront,” said Stephen Alexander, general manager of Plan- ning, Parks & Recreation for the City of Cornwall. The new stops are located on or near the Citizen of the Year Walkway in Lamoureux Park, the RCAFA Wing 424 and Pointe Maligne, the waterfront area near Legion Park. Rest stops have also been installed near the new portion of the recreational path that passes under the new low-level bridge crossing. “The rest stops were placed in speci!c loca- tions where residents can take advan- tage of the great views our waterfront o"ers,” said Lee Cassidy, chair of the Waterfront Committee. “It’s a simple way to make our waterfront more enjoyable and accessible for everyone.” Pictured in the photo aremembers of theWaterfront Development Committee and City sta" members (seated from left) Christine Lefebvre, division manager of Planning, Parks & Recreation, Colleen Bissonnette, Lee Cassidy, Guy Menard, (back row) Pat Clarke, Stephen Alexander, general ma- nager of Planning, Parks & Recreation, Kevin Donnelly and Ely Daniels, adminis- trative assistant, Planning, Parks & Rec- reation.

C’est un honneur! s’arrête à Cornwall FRANCIS RACINE francis.racine@eap.on.ca
CORNWALL | Une nouvelle exposition iti- nérante, parcourant actuellement le Cana- da a!n de rassembler, d’honorer et d’ins- pirer les Canadiennes et les Canadiens, s’est arrêtée à Cornwall les 4 et 5 août der- niers.

The seven members of the group, Carole Mundy, Chris Heath, Claude Champagne, Gilles Bellefeuille, Barb Hunter, Ken Johns as well as Judy Hart, have migrated to Dixie Jazz music from many other genres, including classical, rock and big band jazz. “We play traditional Dixieland songs, both original and contem- porary arrangements and other great standards, all of which are just plain toe-tapping music,” said Carole Mundy, leader of the band. “It’s somuch fun to play this music that the fun becomes infectious. All of our audiences seem to have as much fun as we do!”
