You should add $Sidebar in your template file (.ss)
You will find that you will have to add and configure the widgets for each page.
I wrote a module that make it easy to manage widgets - and allow adding widgets in one place.

it most suitable place is in templates/Includes/SideBar.ss
But because blackandy display the sidebar only when there is a second lever menu, you need to make some changes there, to move the <% if Menu(2) %> check from the templates/Layout/Page.ss to the SideBar.ss.attached the modified files.
Note: for some reason the attached file called Page4.ss instead of Page.ss

If that widget should be available to all pages (or anything more that one page), go to the "Widgets Manager" tab, create new widget (or select the default one).
The WidgetArea will come up (same as in the Forum), with extra "name" field. Set the name, Drag the widgets and save.
Then on each page you want to display that widgets, select the "content/widgets" tab and from the "Widgets Manager" pull-down choose the one you created. (and Make sure "Widgets currently used" is empty).
Second level pages will inherit it's parent widgets by default.If you want the widget to be available only to one page, just use the "content/widgets" tab, drag the widget and save. again, second level pages will inherit that widgets by default.
