“TRUDY” See Page 5 for adoption info.
by Adam Gault The Harrow Rotary Club brought a chill to the Old Mill
in Harrow this past Saturday, as ghosts, ghouls, and goblins came out to scare those who dared to
enter the nearly 70-year old structure in support of a good cause. The Harrow Rotary Club’s first annual Fright Night transformed the Old Mill into two floors of absolute terror. First as a haunted house for children in the afternoon, and a much more sinister experience for adults in the evening. The funds the Harrow Rotary Club was able to raised during the Fright Night event are being
put towards some much-needed equipment upgrades for Essex Fire & Rescue in Harrow. “This year, we’ve committed to raise the money for a fire extinguisher training kit, and that’s $13,000,” Corrie Bramhall said, who is the Rotary Club Membership Chairperson. “It’s a lot of money to raise. We’ve already done a rubber duck race to help raise funds, this event is going to help raise funds, and then around Christmas we’re going to be selling wreaths to raise funds.” In the works since August, the Rotary Club was looking for a new way to involve the community with a fun, fundraising activity. Halloween was seen as the perfect backdrop for a new type of fun and creative event to bring the town together, and the Old Mill provided the perfect environment for a haunted house. “We looked at barns, farm fields, but this was a perfect location,” Bramhall explained. “It’s a beautiful structure, and it has the already haunting feeling.” Younger guests during the afternoon took a tour of the main floor of the mill, braving through interactions with witches, clowns, and monsters as they navigated through a variety of creepy and chilling scenarios, including bowls of “brains” and gypsy fortune-tellers. The evening featured a more mature experience for adult thrill

CTMHV re-opens schoolhouse, thanks to Canada 150 grant
by Sylene Argent A special ceremony held on Saturday morning re-opened the oneroom schoolhouse at the Canadian Transportation Museum & Heritage Village (CTMHV) after its recent restoration. The restoration was made possible through a Canada 150 Ontario Trillium Foundation
Grant, and with help from the CTMHV’s consultant Megan Meloche, who worked towards garnering the grant for the Museum. Meloche listed the many restorations made, including the installation of a new cedar shingle roof, new siding, an accessible ramp, work on the bell house, an exterior and exterior paint job, and
CTMHV Manager and Curator Lisa Wacheski, Vice Chairperson Mickey Moulder, and Consultant Megan Meloche, cut the ribbon to re-open the one-room schoolhouse after it had received some TLC recently, thanks to a Canada 150 grant.
a new coat of paint was also added to the fireplace. Repairs were also made the boys’ entrance at the schoolhouse. The total grant presented to the CTMHV for the restoration project was just over $40,000, of which the grant covered $33,500. The many restoration projects on this important building began in the spring, and were completed by the end of August. This program was wrapped up just in time for a new set of school pupils, Meloche said, acknowledging the CTMHV’s Children’s Education Program that teaches many area students through a hands-on history lesson throughout the school-year.

Mickey Moulder, ViceChairperson of the Museum, extended words of thanks to local businesses and volunteers who contributed to the project to ensure it was completed successfully. “It uplifts everyone when you see progress,” Moulder said of the restoration. It is hoped the CTMHV will be able to garner similar grants in the near future to continue adding improvements where needed to the many historical buildings of local significance along the pathway of the Heritage Village. Moving into the Halloween season, the Canadian Transportation Museum & Heritage Village will host its annual Murder Mystery onsite on October 28. Proceeds will support the Children’s Education Program. The upcoming car raffle will also support the Children’s Education Program, with the winning ticket to be drawn at the New Year’s Eve Party. The raffle car for 2017 is a 1967 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme. The CTMHV is always looking for volunteers, if interested, or to learn more about upcoming events, log onto www.ctmhv.com.

Unless any one us suffer from an extreme form of narcissism, I think we all have our moments of doubt about the level of our abilities and talents. Although I prefer to not rely too deeply upon feedback from others, I do appreciate constructive criticism because that is the only way we can get better at what we do. Over a length of time, I think we can get comfortable with how we conduct ourselves every day, and that is a good thing. If we are constantly stressed about our every day living situations, we cannot be as productive as we could be because we are expelling too much energy just trying to get by. But, at the same time, it is difficult to grow our skills after we become set in our surroundings because we can only think outside that proverbial box so far. Although we may take criticism as a personal insult, I always say it is best to look at where that “advice” is coming from. Sometimes people generally want to help, as sometimes they take great pleasure in trying to take you down due to a variety of
reasons, including jealousy. It is important to remember that saying about not judging others unless you have walked in their shoes. We need to take that into consideration from both the person handing out the constructive criticism and as the one who is receiving it. Before handing out advice, we could ask ourselves why we feel the need. Is it to help an individual or a cause move forward or is it to feel superior? When receiving it, we need to ask ourselves those same questions; what is the intent? And, if the advice is good, are we willing to accept it and implement the changes, even if it is a blow to the ego? I think it is healthy to always want to improve at a reasonable rate, but we do need to keep in mind, with that, we also need to rest, too. Not everything in life is a forward progression, in fact, I feel mostly it is not. And that is ok, challenge makes us stronger and wiser, even if we feel defeated and deflated in the moment. The biggest critic one will face in life is likely our own self. I know I
can be harder on myself than anyone else can be, so when someone else points out a flaw I have tried to hide or improve, it makes hearing it that much harder. But sometimes, that is because someone was able to tap into an insecurity I have and wanted to go for the jugular. The words of others cannot be the sinking weight that drowns us. Even when others want to try to drown us in negativity, we can use their words in a positive manner, to create positive change in our own lives using the feedback or to easily free ourselves of their verbal venom. There are two sides to every coin. And that means that when people provide criticism it could be for good reasons or the bad. The trick is knowing ourselves well enough to know which is what. No matter what side of the coin we were dealt, we should never believe we aren’t good enough, there is just simply always room to grow.
Let’s Talk About... by Evelyn Couch Do you remember? Are you old enough to remember when milk was once delivered to your home in a glass bottle that had a cardboard stopper of a lid? If you didn’t bring it into the house promptly after delivery in the winter time, the frozen milk would push that stopper above the bottle’s top. Do you remember soda pop machines that dispensed glass bottles? How about coffee shops with table-side juke boxes? Did you enjoy teaberry chewing gum? Do you know what party lines are? There could be as many as 12 on one phone line. If someone wanted to talk for half an hour, or longer, they could make it impossible for anyone else on that line to make a call. They could be interrupted by making so much noise
by your phone that they could not hear each other and then they would give up the line. That was not a good way to make friends with others on the line. In those days, there were 45 rpm records. Before those, there were the older ones of 75 rpms. Play one of those records slowly and you have some spooky music for Hallowe’en. Back then, the biggest competitive issue among kids was when we held a race to see who could run the fastest. As a child I remember the frustration of having to correct mistakes by doing the work again. Invaluable lessons that one can only look back on, as an adult, with understanding. Those were the days my friends.

Direct Electric supports Family Respite
Essex resident Kerry Jones and her eight-year old daughter, Hayden, accepted a $1000 donation on behalf of Family Respite Windsor-Essex from Stefanie Sawatsky and Chris Burnand, owners of Direct Electric Services Ltd.
by Sylene Argent Chris Burnand and Stefanie Sawatsky, owners of Direct Electric Services Ltd. of Essex, presented a $1000 donation to local organization, Family Respite Services Windsor-Essex, last Tuesday evening. The official donation took place at Bridlewood
Optimist Park. “Our business has been doing this for a few years now,” Burnand said of the donation. With the holidays around the corner, he noted it always feels good to give back to a community that has given him so much. The duo chose to support Family Respite, an organization working
in partnership with around 1000 regional families that have children with disabilities to provide support and short breaks, with this year’s donation because they had heard of the service it provides and the need for support.
Kerry Jones, a teacher at Essex Public School, and her eight-year old daughter, Hayden, who receives support from Family Respite, accepted the donation on the organization’s behalf. Jones commented on how the Family Respite program is important to her daughter. Direct support providers provide her daughter with oneon-one time with an individual outside of the family for three-hour periods twice per week. “They are completely devoted just to her,” Jones said. In doing so, her daughter can attend respite programs and experience the benefits of socializing. The organization, it was said, relies on donations so it can continue to operate, so this donation was greatly appreciated. It was hoped others would step up to donate as well. The organization is also always looking for direct support providers. “I’d suggest donating to

charity, it is a nice bonus,” Burnand said. “When you donate to charity, you’ll feel the satisfaction that only giving can bring.” He continued that, “If you have children, donating to charity will show them you care about others and want to make the world a better place. If
you involve your children in choosing charities, you will instill a desire to share and serve that will last throughout their lives.” For information on how to donate to the cause or to learn more about the organization, log onto www.familyrespite.org.

The breakdown of Monday’s by-election unofficial results had Ron Rogers with 555 votes, Rodney Hammond with 250 votes, Mike Jenner with 237 votes, and Richard Kokovai with 25 votes. Rogers explained he was ready to get down to the business at hand, and hoped he could use his mediation ability as a unifier when he joins Council in the coming weeks. “I’ve gotten along well with all of them in the past and we can do that again. Maybe we can calm the storm that seems to be brewing all the time down a bit,” Rogers said. “I like to think that I’m a little bit of a diplomat, so I’m going to try to smooth things over as much as I can.” Rogers had previously held a seat on Essex Council, most recently between 2006-2010. Going forward, Rogers
said he will continue to make smart decisions for the community that will continue to take Essex in the right direction. “Hold our taxes down to something that’s livable. Hopefully with the rest of Council, we’ll start focusing on our basic infrastructure again, our roads, our drains, our street lighting. That’s what makes a good, livable community.” Rogers said that he knows with a one-year mandate, “Much of the roadmap has already been laid out,” adding that the current Council has accomplished much for Ward 3, as well as the greater town-at-large. Although tight-lipped about any specific future political ambitions, Rogers said there was a good chance he would be on the ballot again in 2018, adding that this byelection would not have been his last shot at being involved regardless of
outcome. The by-election was called as the result of previous Ward 3 Councillor Bill Caixeiro resigning his position in July of 2017. Less than a quarter of the eligible 4800 Ward 3 voters participated in Monday night’s election, keeping with the historical trend of low voter turnout for municipal by-elections. Ron Rogers is expected to be sworn in and assume duty during the regular Council meeting scheduled for November 6. He will hold the position until fall of 2018 when the regular election will take place.

Annual Food Frenzy supports Food Bank to check expiry dates on all items before they are distributed. “It feels good to know I am making a difference,” Brockman said. “I feel like I am making an impact on my community.” Saturday’s Food Frenzy event has been hosted in town for the past few years. It began years ago as a food drive during the Cottam Yard Sales. He and his family set up boxes along the street in popular areas of the yard sale and asked passersby to donate to the cause. It eventually evolved into the food drive hosted at No Fills. He hoped Saturday’s Food Frenzy would be as successful as last year’s, which he recalled collected boxes upon boxes of much needed items.
14-year old Essex Area Food Bank volunteer Caleb Brockman received help from his younger brother, Gavin, to host the annual Food Frenzy event at Jeff ’s No Frills on Saturday. The event showed support for the Essex Area Food Bank.
by Sylene Argent Though Caleb Brockman is 14-years old, his wisdom is beyond his years due to the experience he has gained after responding to a call to volunteer at the young age of six. Eight years later, he is still devoting time to support the cause near and dear to his heart, the Essex Area Food Bank, including through hosting the annual Food Frenzy event at Jeff’s No Frills, which took place on Saturday. There are people in the community in need of help putting food on their tables for a variety of reasons
and circumstances, and when Brockman came to notice that, he began volunteering at the Essex Area Food Bank and mentoring with its founder, the late and great Eileen Clifford. On Saturday, keeping with his annual food drive tradition, Brockman, with the help of his family, hosted the annual Food Frenzy at Jeff’s No Frills. He collected needed nonperishable food items for the Essex Area Food Bank and further used the opportunity to speak about the need within the community. What is really great

about Saturday’s event is that all the items came new from the store, which helped as volunteers have
Brockman said he gets lots of support from his extended family as well. He still volunteers weekly at the Food Bank, stocking shelves and helping complete other tasks. “It’s an eye-opener,” Brockman said of his long-time volunteer experience. The opportunity to volunteer there has allowed him to interact with a variety of different people who were visiting the Food Bank for a variety of reasons, which has allowed him to get a different perspective. As a student at Essex District High School, Brockman is always happy to share his experience with peers to attract a few new volunteers to the cause. He has had quite a bit of interest from friends who may want to spend
some time helping out at the Essex Area Food Bank, which is located behind the EDHS facility in the former Sun Parlour Junior Public School. There, they can work off some of the compulsorily community service hours needed to graduate high school. He is also hoping to get on EDHS’s Student Council so he can continue to encourage others to support the Food Bank, just as he did in grade school. “Help others when you can,” Brockman urged. “It is important to help others in your community and to support each other. We are living in a world where there is a lot of hate. Everyone needs to put their heads down and work together.”

Federal government responds to pressure on tax changes by Mark Wales, Director, Ontario Federation of Agriculture The federal government got an earful about its proposed tax changes that would have devastating impacts on incorporated farm businesses in Canada. It appears they have listened as Finance Minister
Bill Morneau has now announced a reduction in small business tax rates, as well as the abandonment of other proposals that would have impacted family farm transfers. When the proposed changes were announced in July, with consultations open until October 2, the Ontario Federation
of Agriculture (OFA) encouraged members to let the federal government know the serious implications many of the tax changes would have to the estimated 25% of farm businesses in Ontario and Canada that are incorporated. And members responded in droves – a signal of the
devastating impact these changes would inflict. More than 600 people submitted a letter to local MPs through OFA’s Act Now website. OFA welcomed the statement by the Canadian Federation of Agriculture (CFA) on October 16 reacting to the joint announcement by Prime
Minister Trudeau, Minster Morneau and Small Business and Tourism Minister Bardish Chaggar about small business tax changes. CFA President Ron Bonnett stated that reducing the 10.5% small business tax rate to 10% in 2018 and 9% in 2019 will help drive growth
agriculture and boost the competitiveness of Canadian farmers. It should be noted that this tax reduction was actually following through on a campaign promise by the Trudeau government. Other changes appear to indicate that the voice of Canada’s farmers and farm groups were heard over recent months. Minister Morneau has announced all capital gains rules are being removed from the draft legislation and this is good news for agriculture. They heard our concerns and aren’t changing the existing family farm transfer rules. These tweaks to the proposed changes to private corporation taxes are an encouraging first step, and demonstrate how vital it is to work together with strong messages to ensure the voice of agriculture is clearly heard in the halls of government. OFA is also encouraged because these announcements have positive implications to the rural small businesses that support our agricultural industry.

OPP launches Project Safe Trade across Ontario of something happening. But given its (Safe Trade location) proximity to the detachment and officers coming and going constantly, the potential presence of police should deter unlawful behaviour,” Sakalo explained. In the event any individual using one of the Project Safe Trade locations requests a police officer, one will respond. Beyond using a designated Safe Trade
location to complete private transactions arranged online, the OPP has several tips to ensure people remain safe when meeting strangers to complete a transaction, including meeting in a busy public place, meet during daylight hours, bringing a friend or family member, and if you must go alone, always tell someone where and when you are going. Project Safe Trade
locations can be found at most OPP stations and location across Ontario. In and around Essex, they can be found at the Harrow OPP, Kingsville OPP, and the Essex Centre satellite office located next door to the Essex County Library Branch on Gosfield Townline. Full details on Project Safe Trade can be found at opp.ca
CLEC’s Executive Director to retire OPP Sgt. Brad Sakalo speaks during the official launch of Project Safe Trade.
by Adam Gault The Ontario Provincial Police have officially rolled out a provincewide initiative aimed at keeping the public safe when buying or selling from public websites. At an official launch ceremony this past Thursday, October 19, the OPP unveiled Project Safe Trade at the OPP
detachment in Tecumseh, the first location to develop and implement the program. Project Safe Trade was designed to create a community safe zone at OPP detachment parking lots to complete online transactions. This way, people buying and selling products online won’t have to worry about
inviting strangers to their homes to complete a transaction, or worry about having to find a well-travelled public space. With this program, designated parking spots in OPP station parking lots will be marked with “Internet Purchase Exchange Zone” signs, and will be free for the public to use for their online transactions. OPP Sgt. Brad Sakalo, who played a large role in implementing the pilot program in 2016, explained under normal circumstances OPP offices would not mediate or supervise the private transaction process. “There’s always the risk

Wallace-Gero has been our Executive Director for the last 32-years and has decided now is the time to move on to the next chapter of her life. “I love what I do and I have had an incredible career at Community Living Essex County, but it is time to move on and let the agency be guided by new leadership and new ideas going forward,” Wallace-Gero commented. “The management team here is fantastic and I have extreme confidence [members of that team] will continue to provide and develop modernized, innovative, and top-quality supports for the people we support across Essex County.” Wallace-Gero added she is thankful to all Board of Directors members she has worked with over the years, as well as all staff members, volunteers, and families. She plans to continue to work towards the agency’s objectives over the next six months to ensure the agency continues to provide high quality of supports. Ron Giofu, President of the Board of Directors, wishes Wallace-Gero well and notes she has made a tremendously positive impact during her years with the agency. “While we wish Nancy well as she enters the next chapter of her life, we also acknowledge that it won’t be easy to see her go,” Giofu stated. “Her knowledge, expertise, and passion for the job have made Community Living Essex County a leader within the developmental services sector.” Giofu added the agency and the people it supports are indebted to Wallace-Gero for her efforts over the last three decades. “There is no doubt Nancy has made a REAL difference in how Community Living Essex County has evolved and her leadership is greatly appreciated by those who have worked with her.” The search for a new Executive Director is underway. The Board of Directors has approved an Executive Director task group. It will be a thorough search in which internal and external candidates will be considered. Community Living Essex County supports approximately 650 people with intellectual disabilities and their families across all seven County municipalities.

by Sylene Argent The rainy weather may have prevented Essex District High School students from travelling too far in search for lunch on Tuesday afternoon, but fortunately they did not have to leave the schoolgrounds to get some pizza and support a worthy Rotary International cause. The Rotary Club of Essex joined forces with the high school’s Rotary Interact Club to
host a Pizza for Polio event on World Polio Day. Students, staff, and members of the Rotary Club were urged to wear purple in support of the event. Many also received “purple pinkies” in support of the cause. Dr. Julie Ricci, a member of the Essex rotary Club, explained children who receive the two drops of the oral Polio vaccine through the International Rotary Initiative are marked with a purple marker on their pinkie finger. She further noted that through these efforts, just two drops could save one child from ever having to experience Polio. In addition to the Pizza for Polio day event at EDHS, the Essex Rotary Club also hosted a Pizza and Pasta Dinner at Essex United Church later that evening. Local elementary students were also urged to wear purple in support of World Polio Day, raising awareness for the cause. It was hoped the Pizza and Pasta event and Pizza for Polio luncheon at the local high school would have great community support and raise $1500. For more information, go to www.endpolio.org.

Letter to the Editor
In municipalities across Ontario, we are hearing of EMS services that are understaffed and under-resourced to meet the current demand. There are claimed stories of paramedics working 16 hours without a break, or tragic accounts of patients passing away because all ambulances were occupied when the emergency call came in. These situations, where a service is without an available ambulance to take the next call, are known by a few different names–they could be called Code Zero, Code Red or, in the case of Essex Windsor EMS, Code Black. Many overburdened EMS services rely on their neighbours to cover part of their territory when they enter a Code Black situation. In Windsor and Essex County, we only have one neighbouring service to help us out, and we are grateful to our sisters and brothers in Chatham-Kent for their help. Data on the number of Code Blacks, and the amount of time spent in Code Black scenarios, is not readily available, but our residents should know that we are facing the same problems here that exist elsewhere in the province. Chances are, the problem will continue to get worse as the number of ambulance calls continually increases. Due to recent changes in the shared service agreement with Chatham-Kent EMS, the area covered by Chatham-Kent EMS into Essex County has changed, resulting in less coverage for our residents. The proximity line for service now does not include a section in the eastern part of Essex County. What this means for residents in the eastern part of the County is that ambulances stationed to cover this area will now be further away, leading to potentially longer wait-times for ambulance arrival. Longer wait-times are always a cause for concern. This is bad news for our residents and our paramedics. Residents will have to abide potentially longer waittimes, while paramedics will have to do everything in their power to cover more ground with fewer resources. This generally means skipping breaks or extending shifts to ensure that all calls are answered. Having EMS services cover for their neighbours is, of course, purely a band-aid solution that should only be used in extreme situations. No amount of reshuffling or reconfiguring of existing resources is going to change the fact that what is needed in Windsor and Essex County is an increase to the number of trained paramedics in ambulances on the road and more stations throughout the County to house them.

WETRA hosts annual Halloween Spooktacular
Terran Coray, 2, takes a ride on the Batman horse at the Halloween Spooktacular.
Lucas Walach, 7, shows off his first place winning Jet Pack Rocketman Halloween costume.
by Adam Gault What has become quite the Halloween tradition brought thousands of children and parents out of the house this past weekend to take part in the annual Windsor Essex Therapeutic Riding Association (WETRA) Halloween Spooktacular. Now in its 13th year, the event has really had a chance to blossom, especially over the last several years since WETRA moved from its former facility on Huron Church to its current location on North Malden Road, just east of McGregor. Featuring roughly 90 volunteers and 10 horses in full costume, this year’s event featured even more live entertainment
than previous editions. The event is a crucial fundraiser for the program that provides therapeutic horseback riding experiences for children with a variety of disabilities and special needs. “We were looking for ways to sustain the programs that we run, so we came up with a Halloween-themed idea for children,” Becky Mills explained, who is WETRA’s Executive Director, on the idea behind the event. “And we thought it would be successful because it’s on the farm, we could put horses in costume, which other people in the area weren’t doing, so that’s what makes our event so unique.” The Spooktacular is held as a way to
supplement and financially support the programs offered at WETRA throughout the year in a family-friendly atmosphere. The event gives participating youths the chance to take part in some farmthemed fun, including a costume contest, a ride on a costumed horse, taking in a magic show, raffles, games, as well as witnessing a riding demonstration and the annual appearance from the dreaded “headless horseman.” “We have a “cemetery” out back full of “gravediggers” and they tell the story of the solider without his head that died many years ago, and he comes back every Halloween to find his head. Then the horse comes out with the headless horseman riding it, and the kids all scream. It’s a lot of fun,” Mills
explained. Looking to raise $20,000 for WETRA, the event always manages to hit the mark and give children memories to last a lifetime while doing so. “Everything from this event goes towards supporting the care of our horses and our facility,” Mills explained. “A small percentage of our funds come into the program unrestricted and we need unrestricted funding to care for the horses. This also helps with administrative funding and payroll.” To learn about upcoming WETRA events and to locate full information regarding programs and support options, visit wetra.ca.

Sharing a friendship and a tradition The War Amps Operation Legacy. By doing this, they pay tribute to the sacrifices of the war amputee veterans who started the Association. Rebecca, Myles’s mom, said it is important for her son to mark Remembrance Day by laying a wreath. “To know that veterans were part of creating the CHAMP Program, which we are so grateful for today, makes it important for him to have that connection.” It was at a War Amps CHAMP Seminar, an annual regional event for child amputees and their parents, that the two boys met for the first time without a fence separating them. Ryley has attended Myles (left) and Ryley (right) laying a wreath on behalf of The War Amps.
submitted to EFP Ryley McMillan, 9, and Myles Newton, 5, of Stratford spotted each other for the first time through a fence that separated their neighbouring school and daycare. Noticing that they both share something special, they would often give each other a wave. Today, the boys share a strong friendship as well
as a Remembrance Day tradition. Ryley was born a left arm amputee and Myles a right leg amputee. They are both members of The War Amps Child Amputee (CHAMP) Program. War amputee veterans created The War Amps in 1918, its Key Tag Service in 1946, and later, the CHAMP Program. Since 1975, thousands of child
amputees have received financial assistance for their artificial limbs through CHAMP and have attended regional seminars where they learn about growing up as an amputee. For the past couple of years, Ryley and Myles have laid a wreath together at their local Remembrance Day ceremony on behalf of

many seminars, which his mom, Crystal, describes as a powerful experience. “It put us at ease to know that he was going to be OK. The War Amps has supported us emotionally and supported Ryley to do things like any other child.” But the boys’ friendship extends beyond the seminars and Remembrance Day. Rebecca says Myles looks up to Ryley, who often plays hockey on their backyard rink in the winter. To see Ryley not letting his amputation
stop him from being active reminds Myles that he too can do anything he sets his mind to. When war amputee veterans started The War Amps nearly 100 years ago, they could not have predicted that their legacy would be remembered and carried on for years to come by young amputees like Ryley and Myles. Thanks to the public’s support of the Key Tag Service, The War Amps vital programs for amputees across Canada will continue long into the future.

Enthusiasts flock to 48th Annual Migration Festival by Adam Gault The spirit of migration, conservation, and tradition were in the air this past weekend as visitors from down the street and across the world descended on Kingsville to honour the legacy of Jack Miner with the 48th Annual Migration Festival. The event has grown

in magnitude in the near half-century since the Festival’s humble inception. It has more activities, including concerts, a renowned selection of food and drink, and a larger international following in the birding and waterfowl migration community are bringing visitors from places as far away as
Japan and New Zealand. Even as the festival grows year-over-year, the core of Migration Fest is the still the legacy of Jack Miner. It also celebrates his popularization of many of today’s popular bird conservation methods during the first few decades of the 20th century, including the practice of banding.
“He’s the one that pioneered banding in order to track the migration of the birds. That’s a big part of our community,
which he did a lot for. He’s known as the Father of Conservation,” Krystle Delben said, who is the Community Engagement
Coordinator for the Jack Miner Bird Sanctuary. Many of the visitors to the Festival make their

Here, visitors could tour his family home and museum, and learn what took one young man from Ohio to Ontario on a personal crusade for animal rights. “We’re able to open up the house and museum and show the legacy of Jack Miner and how we’re continuing the work,” Delben said. “The whole community comes together, that’s what people love about it.” For many who make

the trip to Kingsville, the event offers a rare chance to see many types of North American migratory birds on a critical migration spot as they make their way south for the winter. The Migration Festival hosted its ever-popular festival parade on Saturday. With dozens of
floats, bands, horses, and weekend temperatures rising to an unseasonably high of the mid-70s, it all but guaranteed that those who made their own first migration to attend the event were sure to make their own long trips home with none of their feathers ruffled.
Voice Of Inspiration “People who lack the clarity, courage, or determination to follow their own dreams will often find ways to discourage yours. When you change for the better, the people around you will be inspired to change also ....but only after doing their best to make you stop. Live your truth and don’t EVER stop.” ~ Steve Maraboli

Issues of the past You may not have dealt with any of these items, depending on your age, but I did experience them years ago when it was not unusual to have two or three best friends. We would spin ourselves around until we got dizzy and fell down. That was a good reason for the giggles. I did that with my swing; ropes fastened to a tree branch, until I was actually ill. It was considered a weapon in the school if you were caught with a slingshot. The worst embarrassment on the school playgrounds was being the last one chosen for a baseball team. Taking drugs back in those days of my childhood meant eating an orange flavour chewable aspirin. The boys would put baseball cards in the spokes of their bicycle. As the wheels turned, those cards clacking against the spokes made it sound like they were riding a motorcycle. Back in those days of my past, a quarter was a decent allowance. Do you remember when it took three minutes for the television to warm up and bring action to the screen? If you can remember most of these things, you have lived awhile.

Terry Dans with his cool ’51 Mercury Sport Coupe.
On a recent drive through Aylmer, Ontario, I saw a dazzling ’51 Mercury coupe heading down the main street. Suddenly, it pulled over and parked. I parked too, jumped out, and introduced myself to Terry Dans, owner of the sleek-looking Merc. He found the car about 15 years ago near Guelph. It looked pretty good until they got the car home. The frame was badly rotted and had to be replaced. The rebuilding took about two years, and Terry’s good friend Chuck McCallum helped with a lot of the work. Terry had a ’49 Monarch which supplied dashboard and parking lights (unique to the ’49 model year). A ’54 Chevrolet grille was installed with two extra teeth for a total of nine, the headlights were frenched into the front fenders, and spotlights were mounted on the windshield posts. The rear license plate frame says “Flatheads Forever” and when Terry opened the hood, I saw the original 255 flathead V8 punched out to 270 cubic inches, along with finned aluminum heads, dual carbs, and dual exhausts. The transmission is automatic with overdrive and the rear end is stock. Terry’s ’51 Merc came new with Merc-O-Matic, the first year Mercury had an automatic transmission. The column shift has been replaced with a floor shift. And the interior is completely redone in beautiful burgundy and white. The hood and trunk have been shaved as well as the outside door handles. The car has been lowered and chrome lakes pipes run the full length of the rocker panels. The front and rear bumpers are stock as well as the entire suspension. Power steering and power brakes were added six weeks ago for added safety. When fully dressed for a cruise, the front wheels carry ’57 Dodge Lancer wheel covers and the rear wheels have teardrop bubble skirts. And the gleaming 2003 Olds Red Firemist Metallic on the car is an absolute knockout! The name “Dragon Lady” is on the trunk lid in honour of Terry’s wife. Terry is a member of the “Old Aylmer Cruisers,” a local car club with a bunch of guys who love driving their classic cars. Long live old cars and the people who love them! I’m always looking for more stories. Email billtsherk@ sympatico.ca or write Bill Sherk, 25 John St., P.O. Box 255, Leamington, Ont. N8H 3W2.

Essex 73’s Trend Continues by Garrett Fodor The Essex 73’s early season trend of splitting games continues to haunt the home-team. Entering Tuesday, sitting tied for third in the standings, Essex looked to avenge its 4-2 loss to Lakeshore from the week prior. The 73’s had to do so without Coach Cam Crowder and veteran William Stadder. Both had to sit out because of misconducts, so some rookies were needed to step up against the Blenheim Blades. And step up they did, Jack Sanko opened the scoring with his first junior goal. He beat Eric
Stewardson with seven minutes remaining in the first period. And to close out the frame, Essex doubled its lead with the man-advantage as Anthony Cristofaro blasted a slapshot in through the point. In period two, Essex continued its strong play, controlling the puck for much of the 20 minutes in the offensive zone. Blenheim was held to just 10 shots in the period. Essex’s rookies continued to step up and scored four goals in the period, including Sanko registering his second of the night and his third point with an assist.
With Essex leading 6-0 after two periods, tempers started to flare in the third period with the teams amassing 64 penalty minutes in the period. Michael Vieira opened the scoring 42 seconds into the final period before the teams exchanged goals in the final minutes. Essex took sole possession of third place, with an 8-1 victory. Closing out the week, the 73’s traveled to face their crosstown rivals, the Integrity Amherstburg Admirals, on Sunday evening. The Admirals entered the game tied for eighth in the standings. From the opening 20 minutes, fans were expected to see the two rivals play a close, marginal game. Both teams were very methodical with their breakouts and rushes. After a scoreless period, shots were 12-6. Fans were treated to an exciting second period as they combined for four goals. Opening the scoring was Amherstburg’s Dylan Muzzatti, who capitalized while Essex was in the penalty box two minutes in, beating Tyler Ryan with a snapshot in close. With five minutes remaining, William Stadder tied the game at one, capping

off a beautiful passing play from line-mates Michael Vieira and Michael Ruttinger, who was appearing in his first game of the season. Amhersburg responded just over a minute later. Closing out the frame, Adam Gaiarin deflected a shot off an Admiral defender and the puck went by Ben Larder. Teams skated to a scoreless third period. They went into overtime. In overtime, the Admirals set the pace and did not allow Essex a shot. As a result, the Admirals were able to capitalize on a tired Essex unit and prevailed 3-2 over the 73’s. In net for Essex was Tyler Ryan, who turned away 18 of the 21 shots he faced.

dished the biscuit off to Zanier for the goal. The nail in coffin came late in the third on a superbly executed offensive zone faceoff win by O’Keefe, which allowed Bildfell to fire a rocket, five-hole for the goal, and a spot in the final. The final game would be no easy task for Essex as it faced a formidable opponent in the Ingersoll Express. But, the Ravens players picked right up
where they had left off in the semi, with a concerted effort to pressure their opposition into mistakes. The Express could not skate an inch without being harassed by a Ravens’ player. Mid-way through the first period, the Ravens struck when Zanier scored, after a shot from the point by Ward. In the second period, it was a backhanded goal by Gerard, after a solid puck win by Ian McFadden, that put Essex ahead by two. Essex went ahead by three off an exceptional passing play by Moffa, Bildfel, and Zanier, who turned the Ingersol goalie inside out. However, the Express showed no quit and closed the gap to 3-2 before the
Ravens took back control and put the game out of reach. Bosse scored off another impressive passing play from Moffat and Bildfell, and O’Keefe closed out the scoring, with the helpers coming from Bildfell and Simpson. Strong defensive play by Bildfell, Rivest, Ward, Cunningham, and Simpson, as well as an unrelenting forecheck by all of the Ravens’ forwards helped secure the championship, with a 5-2 win. The Essex Ravens Novice Major’s are grateful for the support of family, sponsors, and the Parry Sound Shamrocks, who organized the Bobby Orr Hall of Fame Classic .
