WHEATLEY – Julie Reid of Wheatley is celebrating after winning a $70,000 prize with Instant Supreme 7. Julie says she is a regular lottery player and loves to play Instant tickets. She won $400,000 on Plinko last year. Julie says she checked her ticket while at the store and couldn’t believe what she saw. “I brought the ticket to the store clerk and I was totally stunned,” she said. Julie shared the big news with her family right away. She has no big plans for this win at the moment. “I will put it aside for a rainy day,” said Julie. Instant Supreme 7 is available for $50 a play and the top prize is $700,000. The ticket was purchased at Parkdale Store N’ Service on Seacliff Drive in Leamington.

REGIONAL – It’s lucky number 13 as the Windsor Regional Hospital Foundation launches its 13th annual Hats On For Healthcare Campaign which has raised more than $450,000 for programs and services at Windsor Regional Hospital. The beneficiary of this year’s campaign is the new Mental Health Program at the Ouellette Campus. It consists of the new Assessment Unit, eight Psychiatric Intensive Care Beds and 60 beds in the Acute Care Unit. “The physical space is the holding space for the gem of our program, the team of multidisciplinary professionals: nurses, social workers, occupa-

tional therapists, family practice physicians and psychiatrists,” said Dr. Corina Velehorschi, Chief of Psychiatry. “The common misconception is that mental health affects mostly the stigmatized, the marginalized in our community. It can be anyone and it is our role to buttress their supports by involving family and community resources for best outcomes. There is no health without mental health.” In the last fiscal year, 5,625 patients with a mental health or substance abuse primary diagnoses were assessed in the ER, of which over 3,200 were assessed in the Mental Health Assessment Unit and 2,000 were admitted to inpa-

Branch 324 resumes meat draws

WHEATLEY – With the easing of Covid restrictions, Wheatley Legion is resuming its Saturday afternoon meat draws. Saturday, March 19 features the annual Turk ’n Beaup St. Patrick’s Day festivities. The afternoon will be hosted by Roberta Dibbley and Sandra Wolf, daughters of the late Turk Dibbley and the late Mark Beaupre, who originated the event many years ago. This is always a fun day with lots of surprises. Due to the explosion, Wheatley Legion events are currently being held at Talbot Trail Golf Club, 790 Talbot Trail, east of Wheatley. There will be no meat draws March 5 and March 12 due to prior commitments at the golf course.
