Among their many stops Tuesday was a quick visit to Mount Pearl council chambers for a meet and greet with Mayor Dave Aker. The Junior Constables also toured RNC headquarters, visited the RNC horses at their barn, rode police vehicles, met the K9 unit, completed an ATV patrol around Powers Pond, and lunched at Boston Pizza. Whittle and Norman, along with over 500 Mount Pearl students, submitted cards of thanks to local police officers. Those cards were then judged by a panel of volunteer judges, and the two winners selected. Whittle’s card was chosen because of the amount of thought put into her card, which spanned several pages, while Norman’s card was chosen because of its wonderful artwork. The cards are sent to police officers within Mount Pearl. “I have every card that I’ve ever received over the years, and a lot of officers have told me that they’ve kept every card ever given to them,” said Cst. Danielle Greavette. “So, this is a really good way for the students to bridge the gap between officers and themselves and learn a little bit about law enforcement and feel that they have law enforcement that they can trust, and know people like myself and Cst. (Stephen) Fitzgerald by name.” The two junior constables were joined at City Hall by their mothers and members of City staff. In the back, from left, are Karen Norman, Cst. Stephen Fitzgerald, Mayor Dave Aker, Cst. Danielle Greavette, Mount Pearl Superintendent of Municipal Enforcement Blair Tilley, and Beth Whittle.

Ogres, Humpty Dumpty, gingerbread men, the Three Blind mice, the Big Bad Wolf, a prince or two, and other fairytale creatures from the popular film franchise joined Santa Claus to wish residents their best. A number of Skilled Trades students helped make the float, and school principal Gary Petten said students were over the moon when they learned they had received the first-place float award for their festive and creative float, which was complete with a medieval castle. Petten said the Shrek theme allowed students to play a variety of different characters you don’t often see at Christmas time, and the students are considering a similar idea for next year’s float. In the back row, from left are Gary Petten, Denver Petten, Matthew Hayward, Kelton Power, Dominick Lundrigan, Charlene Power, James Sullivan, Jane O'Driscoll, Aiden O'Brien, Ava Power, Rowan Power, Cole Sullivan, and Bella Carter.

Folks in Conception Bay South may remember purchasing wool from Harpur at her shop Harpur’s Knitting Centre, which she operated in CBS from 1987 until 1994, when she moved the shop to Duckworth Street in St. Johns. During the cod moratorium, Harpur trained other women to knit. More recently in 2000, Canadian Living magazine asked Harpur to design and knit a sweater in honor of the 1,000 year anniversary of the arrival of the Vikings at L’Anse aux Meadows. In 2022, Lisa Chatzikirou of Cast On! Cast Off! began working with Harpur to bring that pattern back to life. Following a successful redesign of the sweater, Harpur and Chatzikirou designed a pattern for a children’s version of the sweater. Harpur also designed a children’s hat to compliment the sweater. Both designs have been compiled in a new pattern book, ‘Children’s Newfoundland Guernsey.’ While designing the sweater and hat, Harpur sought out several ‘mini-models’ many of whom hail from the junior church classes at First Baptist Church in Mount Pearl, which Harpur attends. Those children also appear in the pattern book. In the back row, from left to right, are Willow Martin and her father Mitchell Martin, Barbara Harpur and Adrian Sierra de Anda (himself a model in the pattern book). In front, from left to right, are Nathan and Andrea Ohwoka, Daniel Chinaka, who had some fun clowning for the camera, and Mateo and Samuel de Anda. http://www.thepearlnews.ca/stories/2023/8/17/staff-taxi-costs-raise-eyebrows-at-council-meeting monthly 0.5 2023-10-10 http://www.thepearlnews.ca/stories/2023/8/17/city-splits-pool-chemicals-tender-among-three-companies monthly 0.5 2023-10-10 http://www.thepearlnews.ca/stories/2023/8/17/mount-pearl-soccer-association-girls-u12-team monthly 0.5 2023-08-22 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5521286fe4b0dd694712e3d3/fae76d53-afe4-4a83-838a-0545ba568526/Aug+11+Mount+Pearl+Sun+Spalsh+Girls+U12+TS+%28WEB%29.jpg Stories - Mount Pearl Soccer Association Girls U12 team - Make it stand out A little rain couldn’t wash away the smiles of the Mount Pearl Soccer Association Girls U12 team that claimed the Senior Girls U12 2023 championship banner at the 2023 SunSplash tournament in Paradise two weekends back.

This week, the team won the Phonse Cup, so named after long time Glacier Arena Zamboni driver Tony ‘Phonse’ Fowlow. In the back row, from left to right are Coach Chad Hart, Jack Hart, Collin Martin, Jacob Payne, Jacob Smith, Jake Budgell, Zack Moyst and Carter Pelley.

Missing from the photo are coaches Trevor Budgell and Darryl Smith, players Sam Henderson and Tyler Gough. The Phonse Cup has been ongoing since 2013 and has taken on even more significance since December 2021 when Fowlow, also known as the Earl of the Pearl, among other affectionate nicknames, suffered a stroke that left him paralyzed on one side. The event sparked a huge outpouring of support and financial help from many of the former players and their families who depended on Fowlow’s steady presence at first the Smallwood Arena and later the Glacier, over the years.
