Dr. Child celebrating 50 years of practice by Fred Groves The eyes are clear, the hands are steady, and after 50 years of practicing medicine in Essex Centre, Dr. D.M. Child still has that calm, reassuring voice. It’s a voice thousands of people through multiple generations have come to trust. This year marks a remarkable half-century of practice milestone for the doctor who has no intentions of slowing down, or retiring. “My father was a doctor, I kind of drifted into it,” he said of why he became a physician. Dr. Dumaresq Marner came to Essex County after spending four years practicing medicine in his native England. It was an advertisement in a British medical journal that first peeked his interest. “I got off the boat 50 years ago and at that time there was a lot of dissatisfaction with the medical system in Canada,” he explained. At first, Dr. Child did not have intentions on staying in Canada. He wanted to travel and had his sites on, to name just one country, Australia. However, it was the lure of the availability to become a general practitioner that

got him to stay. “I like the variation. That’s why I came to Canada. In England, it’s a GP system or a specialist.” At 78, Dr. Child still continues to make his hospital rounds, and doesn’t mind doing his civil responsibility of being a coroner. “I cut back on that a few years ago. I used to do Windsor, but now I just do local,” he said. Medicine has changed in a big way since 1967, when Dr. Child hung out his shingle and opened his practice for business. “There are more affective medications than what we had back then, specifically for heart disease and cancer.” At one time, and not that long ago, Dr. Child and the now retired Dr. Sheehan were the only two physicians in Essex Centre. Fortunately, that has changed and the burden and stress of being the only doctor in town is now relieved somewhat. “The supply has increased considerably in town and now we have two or three new ones,” he said. Although he has what is deemed a ‘closed practice,’ Dr. Child figures that since he first came to Essex Centre, he is

probably treating up to five generations. He has outlived and outworked the old brick professional medical building on main street in

which he works and has no immediate plans in setting down his stethoscope. So, what keeps Dr. D.M. Child motivated? Well, for one thing he stays

active and continues to play squash, which in his pleasant manner admitted, “I was never really good at it.”

Council/staff tour Harrow OPP detachment by Sylene Argent Members of Essex Council and staff gathered at the Harrow OPP Detachment on Thursday evening to tour the facility. The tour was held to allow staff members and

members of Council to get an understanding of how OPP utilizes the facility and its needs, and further to better understand the integrity of the building. “Some of Council had not received a tour of the

Harrow OPP Detachment. It was an opportunity to learn more about the space,” Essex CAO Tracey Pillon-Abbs explained. She added it allowed members of staff and Council to learn what the

Essex (M) OPP Contract Manager Jeﬀ Coulter, Essex CAO Tracey Pillon-Abbs, Councillor Bill Caixeiro, and Essex Director of Corporate Service Donna Hunter were a few of the individuals who toured the Harrow OPP Detachment last Thursday.

facility has now, and what it could look like if the service had to be relocated in the future. Councillor Bill Caixeiro, who sits on the Essex Police Services Committee, said the current Harrow OPP Detachment was never meant to be a permanent facility. The building is getting older as it used to serve as Harrow’s Municipal Building. He believes to continue to use this facility for the long-term could be costly to taxpayers in the future, due to the building’s age. Essex (M) OPP

Contract Manager Jeff Coulter explained the tour was a great way to show off the facility, which will be helpful in the future when representatives of the OPP approach Council for funding when there is need for capital purchases. Essex is responsible to maintain the facility. Many renovations to the facility took place in 1999 when the Essex Police Services changed over to the OPP, he explained. Caixeiro added it is important for the Town to keep on top of asset management, which includes putting aside

funds in reserve to help close the capital funding gap. That way, needed repairs to town-owned facilities are listed and money is set aside to cover those future costs. He added Council and staff should get in the habit of visiting each town-owned facility at least once per term of Council so when repairs need to be done, there is a good understanding of the issue. Money has been set aside in reserve to cover future needs of the Harrow OPP Detachment.

Nine-day yard sale lets Kingsville Historical Park highlight displays by Sylene Argent On Saturday, representatives of Kingsville Historical Park Museum, a local museum that highlights local military history, wrapped up its annual nine-day yard sale. “We had a really good turnout,” Museum volunteer Katherine Gunning explained. The multiple-day yard sale is a fundraiser for the Museum to help cover operating and general expenses. It also serves as an outlet to get new faces into the facility to see the many displays on hand and learn the stories of locals who served their nation in wars of the past. Gunning said community members were very generous in donating gently used, and even some handcrafted items, for the sale. That generosity will help the Museum to continue to be able to provide the service it does. The number of visitors to the multiple-day yard sale has increased over the past several years it has been held. Many individuals, Gunning said, look forward to the annual event to do some bargain hunting, while others commented they were

Howling at the Moon ••• Comment by Sylene Argent ••• There’s a time and place I like to keep things fun, even when I am working. And, although my job comes with its stresses and moments to be coupled with seriousness (as do most careers), when I can have fun with a situation, I do. I find I get the best quotes from people when I have a conversation with them, not an interview. This really neat atmosphere can be created where the interviewee can feel comfortable and I can get those really meaningful thoughts from them with ease. I love those moments because I know it will convey their message to our readers and further that I was able to garner that trust. It’s the coolest feeling and one that makes me feel good about what I do. Being able to joke around with others is one way I can achieve that friendly atmosphere I often like to bring the interview table. It is also a great way to get a natural smile from

individuals while I take their picture. I’m a fairly good judge of character, so I know when I can get a little funny, but my radar isn’t fool proof. There have been times when I have cracked a joke and it either went over the heads of others or I got the “what was that supposed to mean” look. Hey, I never claimed to be perfect. I have had the experience of cracking a joke while shopping, for instance, and making what I thought was a funny comment about my purchase to have the cashier take my outlandish remark as truth. When I insisted I was joking, I could tell the cashier did not believe me. It is hard to dig yourself out of those holes and you tend to dig deeper as you try to prove your innocence! I have also had the experience of learning too much information about a stranger. Have you ever been in line and someone starts telling

you personal stuff you would rather just not hear? There must be an air of “tell me all” about me that stems from constantly garnering stories and information from people that in turns inspires people to tell me stuff I really could have carried on without knowing. There really isn’t an easy way to slink away from those conversations and I spend time trying to think of anything else once I can manage to get away. Everyone has at least one good story to them, that is what is really cool about being human. We are constantly learning and growing. We have had stuff happen to us, and we have been the cause of stuff happening to others. We are all part of this ongoing cycle of connectivity.

Let’s Talk About... by Evelyn Couch Late planting Did you hear the farmers crying the other morning when it was raining? They must have been dismayed that the wet fields were getting more moisture. On my trip to London on the 13th of May, I never saw one farmer working the field for planting. The land was much too wet. It is only in the last few days that there has been any action. Apparently there will be a greater wheat harvest here than farther east, judging by the huge expanses of wheat fields, especially in Essex County. Most were beautifully green; there must have been enough nitrogen for the plants to be so healthy. Obviously the wheat survived our winter well. Do you recall seeing the wheat fields with large patches of bare ground in this early part of its growing

season? Why do we need to be concerned? I realize it does not have much meaning to urban dwellers, as we see it. But, I remember an Essex merchant telling me that when there was a poor crop year his sales were down from the average. I think most of us like to see our town is thriving and the new store openings here have been exciting. Aren’t we all waiting to see what the new owner of the former Regal Gift Shop is going to do there? I recall that years ago there was not one empty store in this town and some business people were waiting to locate here. I remember also the concern when the bypass was being built that there would be little traffic in Essex. Have you ever tried to turn on to Talbot Street during store hours?

Dear Mr. Mazzara; I’ve been meaning to tell you this for a long time. You have been the most influential person in my life. Shortly after graduating from your grade 7 class in 2007, I knew I wanted to be a teacher, just like you. You and I both knew I wasn’t the best or the worst student in school, which is part of the reason I didn’t like to go. I was always envious of high achieving and athletic students who got praise from the teacher, and of the struggling students who got to spend extra time with them. Falling somewhere in the middle, I felt invisible to my teachers. You were the first teacher I had who really knew all of their students, including me. Every day you would spend time on the little things. You made sure to plan activities that helped us learn more about our classmates and you. You took time to tell us stories about what it means to be more than just a good student, but a good person. I often think back to the time

you leaned over my desk to personalize my fractions lesson with hockey rinks and running tracks to understand fourths–something you did frequently for all your students with their interests. It was you, as a person, that person that you are, that helped to teach me the most important lesson I’ve ever learned. You taught me to love learning and made me work hard so I would be proud of all of the work I gave to you. It’s a part of my character that you’ve left permanently ingrained. You’ll forever be the best coach in the world. You were an outstanding motivator for more than just the track and field team. Each year, it felt like the entire school joined the fitness club to get in better shape and prepare for summer sports. You made being active fun and social. I made my best friends running, being goofy, and listening to your stories, tips, and anecdotes. I met all 700 students in the school at your club, because you encouraged us all to cooperate and do drills together. At the track meets, I Continue on Page 5

New faces in business core by Sylene Argent As the warmer weather has helped the flowers and trees located inside Essex Centre to bloom, patrons may have taken notice of a few new businesses now located inside the local business district. Shaggy Chic Pet Grooming, located at 16 Talbot Street North, is new to Town. It offers a unique service within the business corridor and can be reached at 226-3509576.

Dr. D’s Gastro Brew House is officially open at 19 Laird Ave, replacing Brass Monkey. It will offer a patio area. Live music entertainment will be hosted here. On Monday, May 1, representatives of Sewcraft Quilting Fabrics and More hosted an open house in celebration of this existing business’s new location at 41 Talbot Street North in Essex Centre, nearing the Talbot Street/ Gordon Ave. intersection.

Recently announced, The Olde School Deli & Cafe is currently being established in the Medical Centre at 186 Talbot Street. The Olde School Deli & Cafe will offer patrons an old-school vibe with wooden desks and features. It is hoped the café will be ready for business in August. Owners are inviting community members to submit old school photos,

which will be used to decorate the facility’s walls. Look for the café on Facebook to learn how to submit photos. Organizers are gearing up for the Essex Rocks & Rolls Car and Motorcycle Cruise In to take place beneath the wings of the Essex Memorial Spitfire this Friday, May 26 from 3:00 to 8:00 p.m. In addition to the cars to be on display, the event will offer a children’s zone and live music entertainment. One of the event organizers, Essex

Councillor Randy Voakes, has said the event is being hosted to promote the downtown area and its businesses. Priority is being given to Essex merchants for vendor space during the show. Recently, Voakes thanked the business community for stepping up to forward monetary

donations to support the event. The Memorial Cup will arrive inside the Heritage Gardens Park at 1 p.m., prior to the cruise in event, to celebrate the junior hockey tournament going on in Windsor. Local residents will have until 3 p.m. to take photos of the trophy.

Save Your Vision Letter to the Editor Continued from Page 4 genuinely cheered on every student, all of the students at Gosfield North Public School, because I knew how hard we had trained together as a team. Outside of school, you’ve even brought my family closer. You’ve had an impact on every member, in a specific way for each of us. My siblings and I share plenty of interests, but one of our strongest similarities is the love that we have for you. It’s almost impossible to visit home without telling an old story about you or probing to ask if there is any news of how you’ve been. The most incredible thing for me is knowing that for hundreds of families in the community, the same must be true. This week I interviewed for my dream job. One of the questions the principal asked in the interview was, “Why do you want to be a teacher in our school?” I didn’t even hesitate before I told them all the things I just told you now. I told the interviewers that it was symbolic that you taught me how to run the 4x100m relay because I felt that I was taking the baton from you and striving to be the next outstanding teacher who makes an impact on the lives of students. I got the job, Mr. Mazzara. Cougars, Eddie Sauve

required to outfit the trucks with all necessary accessories, the report notes. Correspondents from Integrity Commissioner While receiving correspondents sent to Council, one item was from Integrity Commissioner Robert J. Swayze regarding the annual report of the Integrity Commissioner. In the report, it was recommended the Annual Report of the Integrity Commissioner dated May 29, 2017 be received for information. The report notes Swayze was appointed Integrity Commissioner for Essex in November of 2015. His duties include broad advisory and educational assistance to Council as well as conducting inquiries as to whether there was compliance with the Council Code of Conduct. The letter notes Swayze has received eight complaints since his appointment, and reported to Council on six of them on August 22, 2016. The report continues that one sanction was recommended and imposed on Councillor Randy Voakes for disruptive behaviour. He was warned that any future such conduct would be treated by the Integrity Commissioner as a second offence with Continued on Page 8

Continued Essex Council Notes... additional sanctions recommended. Both of the other two complaints received in the summer of 2016 were against Councillor Voakes, Swayze continued in his report. One suggested a conflict of interest and the other for disruptive behaviour

at a Council meeting. “I dismissed the first one because I do not have jurisdiction under the Code to rule on conflicts of interest under the Municipal Conflict of Interest Act. For this reason, I invited the complainant to take the matter to court. I also

dismissed the second one because the alleged disruptive behaviour was during a Council meeting held on December 15, 2015 which had already been ruled on by me and a sanction recommended in my report dated August 22, 2016,” he wrote in his letter to Council.

Swayze continued in his report that he understands from staff there have been continuing disruptive incidents at Council meetings caused by Councillor Voakes. “I repeat my warning to him. A valid complaint to me will result in a

recommendation to suspend a substantial amount of his salary as a Councillor.” During the meeting, Councillor Voakes commented on the part of the letter that noted the Integrity Commissioner has heard from staff there has been continuing

disruptive behavior. “I want to go on record to say the money don’t mean nothing to me. I’m not here for the money,” Voakes commented. He wanted to know what the continual disruptive instances are. Essex CAO Tracey Pillon-Abbs explained the reference in that paragraph refers back to when the Integrity Commissioner make his presentation last year. At that time, he had asked administration to forward any additional videos of Council that may have had concerns. That, she said, is what administration has been doing, drawing his attention to specific ones that may have been of interest for future reference. Voakes said he finds that to be work place harassment. He wanted to file a complaint. “And I am filing a complain as of right now against him under Workplace Harassment,” he said. When the submission of a violation has been asked for and given, he believes administration or the Integrity Officer does not have the right to follow a single individual on their actions. It was noted during the meeting there would be an expectation the complaint would have to be submitted in writing. Deputy Mayor Richard Meloche called a Point of Order, noting Council does not need to know what Voakes intends to do. Voakes disagreed with Meloche.

WECHS partners with Kingsville for Rabies Clinic humans and other animals. The clinic, which was open to residents of Kingsville, offered the rabies shots for $20. The licencing tags were additional. This prompted many to take advantage of this opportunity and others like it, with more than 1750 dogs being licenced and vaccinated in Kingsville before April 1. Jennifer Alexander, Deputy Clerk of Administrative Services for the Town of Kingsville, said this initiative will help reassure the public their animals will remain healthy, and that people will have more certainty any

members of Kingsville Council with a $2283.29 donation to support the Town’s Mettawas Park development. The funds were raised during the annual Vegas Night Dinner and Auction held at the Kingsville Arena on February 18. The donations accounted for half of the proceeds after event expenses. The Mettawas Park project includes an 11acre redevelopment that will feature a splash pad, gardens, trails, playground areas, gazebo, and picnic shelters. “This was the 7th year for this event and enthusiastic crowds truly

enjoyed their Vegas Night fun in support of a significant community project,” Kingsville Mayor Nelson Santos said. “We’re grateful for the support of the Knights of Columbus #8233 for contributing to the Mettawas Park project and helping us turn our waterfront into a community friendly and environmentally sustainable location for residents to enjoy for generations to come.”

dogs they might encounter are vaccinated. With this program and the recently opened Linden Beach Dog Park, Kingsville has been taking many positive steps to maintain the strong relationship between man and his best friend. Sherry Bondy, Essex Councillor for Harrow, said although it has been the position of the Town of Essex to maintain that rabies vaccine regulations are the jurisdiction of the province, there is some interest into possible municipal regulation changes similar to what Kingsville has implemented. “We’ve only ever had one resident ask to change (the current policy),” Bondy said. “We could have the staff reach out to the Humane Society and look into what Kingsville is doing.” Kingsville was chosen as the location of the Windsor Essex County Humane Society rabies clinic due to its central location in Essex County as well as the town’s new licencing regulations. At this time, there is no official or pending motion to change the current dog licensing bylaws in the Town of Essex.

by Adam Gault The Town of Kingsville held a rabies clinic at the Kingsville Arena Complex on Tuesday, May 16. The event was held in conjunction with the Windsor Essex County Humane Society to promote rabies vaccinations as part of new dog licencing regulations, which have come into effect for Kingsville. Under the new regulations, any dog being licenced in the Town of Kingsville requires proof of rabies inoculation before receiving their tags. This will help to negate the potential health risks of dog bites to both

In the Matter of the Ontario Heritage Act, R.S.O. 1990, Chapter 0.18 (Section 29) And in the matter of the lands and premises at the following location in the Town of Essex, Ontario Notice of Intention to Designate Take Notice that the Council of the Corporation of the Town of Essex intends to designate the following property, including lands and structures, under Part IV of the Ontario Heritage Act, R.S.O. 1990. Description of Property – 1215 Iler Road The property located at 1215 Iler Road is a two acre lot located at the north east corner of Iler and Huffman Road, in the former township of Colchester South, in Essex County. The property is occupied by a single detached dwelling and three outbuildings. Statement of Cultural Heritage Value or Interest The cultural heritage value of the property at 1215 Iler Road lies in it being a remnant of the Iler Settlement. The area between Farm Lots 33 and 47 (the southeastern corner of the current Town of Essex) has been known as the Iler Settlement since the early 19th century. The settlement contained a church and two cemeteries and two schools. A road was eventually built out from the settlement connecting the First and Second Concessions. It was given the name “Iler Road”. The property’s cultural heritage value also lies in its association with members of the Iler family, most notably, Solomon Iler and Eliza Arner. Solomon Iler is listed as the earliest resident of Lot 41, Concession 1.The present day property occupies just a small portion of Solomon Iler’s original lot. The existing single detached dwelling, however, is Solomon and Eliza Arner’s original farmhouse. Within 30 days of the publication of this notice, any person may contact the Town of Essex (see below) to give written notice of their objection to the proposed designation(s) to the Clerk. Objections must include a statement of the reasons for the objections and all relevant facts. If a Notice of Objection is received, the Council for the Town of Essex shall refer the matter to the Conservation Review Board for a hearing. Additional information is available from the Town of Essex Planner.

County CAO sets site on September retirement by Sylene Argent “Do the right things for the right reasons,” has always been the credo of current Essex County Chief Administrative Officer Brian Gregg. And, those are the words of advice he will leave behind to his future successor. After around 30 years of service to the region in

various capacities, Gregg will retire in September. “I love what I do,” Greg said, but he began to think about all those other things he wanted to pursue and how long he could remain as active as he currently is as someone who enjoys playing hockey and golf regularly, and also enjoys biking. He thought this year would

be the right time to retire, which will be a bittersweet experience. “One of the things I have always prided myself on when I looked at a map of the county was that I saw no boundaries. I looked at what was in the best interest of the region,” he said. Gregg has been an employee with the County for around half his life, and he considers coworkers to be like family. Equipped with a degree in business accounting from the University of Windsor, before embarking on a career with the County, he first began working for Clarkson Gordon, a charter accounting firm. After three years of service, he moved on to work for a social housing authority in Windsor for a four-year period. He began his career with Essex County in 1987 as an accounting supervisor. Gregg saw an opportunity to take the next step to advance his career and found the field

of government interesting. Gregg took on several positions with the County before he landed in the captain’s chair, including as Deputy Treasurer and Treasurer. Gregg served 18 years as the County’s CAO, and one year as its Acting CAO. “When I first became CAO, it was a challenge for me. Accounting is black and white, the CAO needed to

get used to various shades of grey,” Gregg explained as accounting has mathematical and technical answers. In his nearly twodecade tenure as CAO, Gregg has a long list of projects for which he is proud. The number one challenge he recalls in that time was the 1999 amalgamation, which merged several former communities into larger

municipalities throughout Essex County. The municipal restructuring had the County go from 21 communities to seven municipalities, and further reduced the number of individuals on County Council to 14 from 42. “The whole process was really divisive,” Gregg recalled.

County CAO sets site on September retirement... “There was a need for leadership, there was a need for collaboration. It was a difficult time for local politicians and administrators to see their municipalities come to an end because of

emotional ties to local municipalities.” The amalgamation was followed by a boundary adjustment with the City of Windsor in 2003, which also had some of those same elements that

came with amalgamation, such as divisiveness and compromise, he said. A project Gregg reflects fondly upon is the selection of the current regional landfill site, which is within the

Municipality of Essex. This would be a difficult process as it was known a new site was needed, but it came down to where it should be located. There was also a lot of opposition to the short-

listed sites suggested at the time. Gregg said he credits Carl Davison, the former Reeve of the preamalgamation township of Colchester North, who he said stood up and said

submitted to EFP Essex Travel Rookie baseball is back to practice after an exciting, and rainy match-up at Riverside this past Saturday. The first inning belonged to Essex, with Braeden Cavanagh producing the first RBI of the 2017 campaign, scoring the number three hitter Jimmy Hayes. Essex punched the AAA Royals out in the first inning 1, 2, 3, but the Royals and the rain had their way before the game ended mid-way through the 5th inning with Essex trailing 11-2. “Every Day” Ethan O’Neil scored

the other Essex run, while Ryan Smith and Zach Grein recorded singles. With the Belle River Braves coming to town Wednesday, the Jackets went right back to work, with emphasis on hitting. The team plays again May 28th at Essex diamond #3, at 1pm. They will host a Lasalle mixed team, and there is no admission. If it proves to be a nice day for a walk, just walk right on over near the soccer fields, where the young and talented Yellow Jacket players would be happy to hear and see you.

Kiwanis President Dan Inverarity is pictured at Sunshine Point Camp.

Colchester, the longevity of the camp is an inspiring testimonial to the men and women who have kept it going. “It almost closed three years ago. We almost ran out of money. They asked me to sell the camp,” Windsor Kiwanis Club President Dan Inverarity said. The Kiwanis Club has been the driving force behind the eight-acre Sunshine Point Camp for 65 years. Inverarity, volunteers, and generous donors keep it going. Filled with emotion, sitting at one of the picnic tables recently, Inverarity added, “I said I can’t sell this camp. I went here as a kid.” And so did thousands and thousands of others who have left stories behind and wrote their names on the cabin walls. Some of those cabins date back to the 1940s when a few wealthy families decided to buy the property for the children of WWII veterans who did not return. These days, a few weeks before the children arrive for an adventure filled with camp fires, swimming, archery, and friendship, Inverarity and his volunteers have rolled up their sleeves to build two new cabins and renovated the kitchen/ mess hall. “We will replace all of them (cabins)

every Tuesday between September and May, and feature a variety of educational and social events open to all members of the public. “It’s a great way to have a social community reach,” Family Service Worker Vicki Liberato explained. The Essex-Kent Cage Bird Society was founded in 1976 by a devoted group of bird enthusiasts to promote the caring, breeding, and keeping of all cage birds, and to promote that shared value through community meetings, shows, and birding exhibitions. Group members also look to develop a strong interest in birding and educate the public on the challenges and rewards in the keeping of cage birds at events like the Salvation Army Connections. “To see how they (birds) grow, feed, it’s a real learning experience,” Sue Sylvester said, a member of the Cage Bird Society and one half of Sylvester Aviaries. Sylvester has also been an integral volunteer with

Salvation Army. Members of the EssexKent Cage Bird Society will celebrate the club’s 42nd anniversary later this year with their annual exhibition and competition in Windsor. It will feature the many types of cage birds kept by the society, such as canaries, finches,

parrots, budgies, and cockatiels in a variety of colours and sizes. It will also play host to many different breeders from all across Canada and the United States. For information on upcoming events or membership details, visit essexkentcbs.com.

County CAO sets site on September retirement... Gregg commented. One project still on the go, for which Gregg is proud, includes Essex County’s participation in the Western Ontario Wardens’ Caucus, accounting for the 15 counties in Southwestern Ontario, which is working on the SouthWestern Integration Fiber Technology (SWIFT) project. This program is designed to bring high speed broadband across all regions of Southwestern Ontario. Gregg thinks this will help promote things like economic growth. The idea is to have several smaller carriers involved. County physician recruitment for the area is an on-going project about which Gregg continues to

be passionate. With the area’s population growing and aging, there is a need to ensure there is adequate access to primary care, which will take pressure off of emergency rooms, he said. Recently, the County implemented a program that linked paramedics to frequent callers needing emergency services. To date, the program has been successful and has reduced the number of those types of calls. It has bettered the care for patients and has made the service more effective, he said. Gregg is a believer in community development. If a good foundation is built, the rest will follow, including economic development, investment,

Voice Of Inspiration “Home is where somebody notices when you are no longer there. ” ~ Aleksandar Hemon

and tourism. He looks forward to seeing CWTAS continue to be implemented around the County. Gregg is particularly proud that over time, the County was able to get debt free. This took place around three years ago. This situation has allowed the County to move funding for asset management (looking after capital infrastructure) into reserves. This allows the County to be in a payas-you-go situation, he said. 15-years ago, he explained, County staff looked at infrastructure and took note there was around $400million dollars’ worth of work needing to be done. As the County worked off its debt, funds were put aside in reserves to pay

for infrastructure work moving forward instead of utilizing the long-term debt option. “It was all about building a proper foundation, which allows us flexibility and to plan better and be more responsible to the needs of ratepayers,” Gregg commented. He added that his successes are linked to the hard work and dedication his coworkers provide the County through various programs and services. “I wouldn’t have success without the creative, innovative people we have here,” he said. Gregg explained Essex County Warden Tom Bain is leading the recruitment team looking for his replacement. The process is currently underway.

Member of the Essex County 4-H Dairy club held our second meeting on Monday, May 15, 2017 at the Morrison farm. Brian Haggins, one of our leaders, called the meeting to order. We said the 4-H pledge. Brian introduced Emily McDonald; Field Services Representative for the Dairy Farmers of Ontario, her job is to inspect dairy farms to make sure everything is in proper order. She grew up in Middlesex County on a dairy farm. Members divided into junior and senior groups. The junior members were led by Vicky Morrison on a tour to learn about the operation of a dairy farm. Senior members stayed with Emily, then we switched. We learned that one cow produces about 17 litres of milk each milking. In one day, that cow produces 35-45 litres of milk. The Morrison’s milk 240 cows per day. Usually two workers carry out the milking process. In the second barn, there are two groups of cows. One group is waiting to have a calf, then they can be milked. The other group is waiting to become pregnant with a calf so that they can make milk. When the calf is born, they stay in a hutch. A hutch is a white, plastic igloo-like home for the young calf. They live in the hutches for about six weeks. A yellow button on a calf ear means it is a male. A white tag on an ear means the calf is a heifer and will grow up to be a cow and give milk. The adult cows eat a mixture of hay, corn silage, soy distillers, and chopped-up straw. Every morning and night, the calves are given milk in bottles. We wrapped up the meeting with delicious ice cream cups.

Awesome 1965 GMC pickup truck!

Don McLachlan’s 1965 GMC pickup ready to roll!

Don McLachlan of Keyser, Ontario, writes: “Hi Bill. Here is the story of my 1965 GMC truck. I bought it in ’07 from a dealer near Grimsby who had brought it up from the southern States. I had learned to drive on a ’71 GMC pickup with three on the tree and was instantly in love with this truck! We drove it for two summers before coming to the conclusion that it needed a frame-off rebuild! “It took the next six years to complete with the help of family and friends and some good business connections. Under the guidance of my father-in-law, Ron Scott, an old school hot rodder, we chopped the frame and welded in a Camaro clip from a ’79 donor car. We also used the Camaro rear end. The frame was mediablasted and epoxy coated after suspension mods were complete. “A fuel tank was mounted under the Southern yellow pine floor truck bed. Some new metal had to be ordered from LMC Truck, and Rick’s Auto Body in London reassembled and painted the truck. “Throughout the process, my father-in-law kept rebuffing my suggestions to the point where he would refuse to help if we used my ideas! Hence, when the truck was complete, he gave me ‘NOSAY65’ personalized plates and matching T-shirt! “He picked the colours (black over grey with an orange pinstripe), the stance, the gauge cluster, the clip (instead of the Mustang II I suggested) and probably more. “The motor was upgraded from a 305 to a 350 rebuilt by BH&P in London. It currently has a 4-speed manual but we are on the hunt for a 5-speed, although my wife wants an automatic! We added 4-wheel disc brakes to slow it down. “We try and hit some shows when we can, and we regularly cruise to Grand Bend. It’s a great truck and we plan on keeping it in the family for many years to come.” My first contact with GMC trucks took place in June 1957, when I washed cars for Ray Young at his Pontiac-Buick-GMC dealership in Leamington. I rode with Ray a few times in his GMC service truck to pick up a disabled car, and he did the driving. He had lost his right arm as a teenager so he steered with his left elbow while shifting gears with his left hand. He also played golf with one arm and shot pool by putting his hat on the table to line up his cue stick. I remember him well. I’m always looking for more stories.

Yellowjackets struggle out of the gate by Fred Groves It was a bumpy start in the Essex County Senior Baseball League for the Essex Senior Yellowjackets. After having its first game postponed due to weather conditions, the Jackets were blasted 15-5 by the visiting Walker Homesite Hawks last Wednesday night. “We got a little messy. We got away from our fundamentals. We had a good couple of practices

leading up to it,” Essex manager/player Andy Jubenville explained. Getting on the diamond continued to be a no-go on Sunday, as they were scheduled to host the Woodslee Juniors at the Gaye Queen Memorial Diamond, but that too will have to be played at a later date. “We were excited to play. We wanted to bounce back from Wednesday’s game,” he said.

Last week against the visiting Hawks, the hosts fell behind 3-1, but thirdbaseman Scott Mortimer made a great defensive play as he caught a line drive and then doubled a runner off at second. Mortimer, a third-year player with the Jackets, contributed in a big way offensively in the bottom of the fourth when he drilled a liner down the first base side, which scored a pair of runs. Trailing 4-3 in the

bottom of the fifth, veteran second baseman Jay Clapp walked, stole second and then third, and scored to tie the game on a passed ball. “Guys like that are big for our team. Mortimer continues to get better and Clapp gives 150 percent each game,” Jubenville said. Despite the loss of the only game so far, the Jackets could be a strong team, and players continue to build on how they finished last year in which they had a good showing at the OBA tournament. Essex has added several new players. The additions could help in a big way, which includes outfielder Todd Morris who is returning after being away for a few seasons, and youngsters Troy Jubenville, who had a double and a single against the Hawks, and speedster Chris Wismer. “We had 16 guys out to our first game. Last year we struggled getting nine or ten out.” One of the biggest surprises is the addition

The Voice Of Experience by Evelyn Couch

Language evolution Here are some changes in our language that I have experienced. Rumble seats have become hatchbacks. Woodies have become vans. Trailers are now mobile homes. Lounge lizards are known now as couch potatoes. Ice boxes went out the door to refrigerators. Kitchen stoves are named ranges. Lanterns have actually been abolished by flashlights. Roads are now known as freeways. Hopscotch has become break dancing. Males who do work at home are rated as househusbands and garbage men have become sanitary engineers. Janitors have become environmental specialists. Secretaries have become administrative assistants. Plumbers have become rich and some of us have been privileged to become very old and are known as seniors.
